Chapter 691: Chapter 513 Not Invincible_1

Zheng Yichen was injured, which was inevitable; after all, nearly everyone present who took action was a divine creature or a demigod. Once reaching this level, their combat abilities became very comprehensive, and with mutual support and enhancement, each combatant could exert even greater power.

He was injured, so the cat spirit cloak he wore was also inevitably damaged. The grey cloak recovered along with Zheng Yichen, but its color had changed from grey to black, and the cat spirit reverted from the state of the Spirit of Blessing back to its original form.

The tiny Spirit of Curse perched on Zheng Yichen’s shoulder, its cat eyes brimming with malicious curses. The cat spirit wanted to pounce, but in the act, it was swiftly grabbed by the nape by the quick-moving Zheng Yichen, who effortlessly tossed it back onto his shoulder, "Stay put!"

"..." Firmly standing on Zheng Yichen’s shoulder, unaffected by the high-speed movement, the cat spirit licked its paw, still eyeing with malice those who were attacking Zheng Yichen. Though Zheng Yichen seemed to have stopped it from acting, when they were gazed at by the cat spirit, they still felt the unease of a menacing Spirit of Curse that might pounce at any moment.

Zheng Yichen pointed out their greed, but that alone was not enough to make them waver, just as Zheng Yichen had said, the power he himself was using gave them a very reasonable excuse to strike!

There were no evil chaotic entities present at the scene; at most, there were members of the Neutral Faction. In this faction, faced with Zheng Yichen wielding evil powers, they found all sorts of reasons to act, and their greed was ’reasonable’ within these justifications.

The existence of evil chaos generally did not reason, and they, too, did not need to reason with an unreasonable entity. Eliminating Zheng Yichen, the "Evil Fiend," and obtaining the spoils they desired was completely justifiable.

And about the prey and the Hunter... Now that they had already taken action, speaking of it was no longer of much significance. Who among those who had made it this far lacked resolve? How could they be swayed by a mere word from Zheng Yichen?

Even if that word came with an oppressive force amplified by Zheng Yichen’s raging aura.

However, that oppressive force had been broken with Zheng Yichen’s injury, and those ignited by the Flames of Rage had returned to normal under the purification of other mages. The Luminous Holy Maiden was particularly adept in this area, and she was unaffected by the Black Light and the Flames of Rage.

Nobody cared about that; the Luminous Holy Maiden herself abided by the edicts and was by definition a good person. It was normal for her to not harbor any greed towards Zheng Yichen’s condition. It was just that Zheng Yichen did not treat them equally in battle, which could only mean that this supposed non-evil entity claiming to be a Hunter would sooner or later be doomed by this kind of ’appeasement’!

"Ah, you’re here too." Having moved far away from the battlefield, Klakauska bumped into something. He looked back and saw the hidden motorcycle with Lilith’s projection standing on the handlebars, "Can we... help?"

"Based on my analysis, you’re incapable of helping, except for possibly making things worse." Lilith glanced at Klakauska; the fight over at the boss’s location had already escalated beyond what this fire dragon could interfere with, unless the fire dragon called over his powerful Dragon Tribe elders. Otherwise, he would just be a spectator.

"I mean we."

"Not needed."

Zheng Yichen had never intended to involve Lilith in the fight from the beginning. To Lilith, Zheng Yichen’s orders were absolute. If she was not to get involved, she would find a place to hide well. If something happened to Zheng Yichen, she would then push the star core battery to its limit and rush over to create an explosion that could destroy all living beings in the vicinity.

As for Katrina and the others still in Landen City, Lilith felt indifferent toward them. Her master was Zheng Yichen, not those two witches.

"Well then, I’m truly sorry for being a burden," muttered the fire dragon, noticing that Lilith was absorbing the residual waves from the battlefield and using that power to better conceal and disguise herself, a much more clever method than his.

The power of technology, tsk.

In the midst of Zheng Yichen’s battle, two divine creatures failed to avoid his attack and were incinerated to ash by the Hellfire explosion; other mages didn’t even have time to come to their aid.

The harm that these two divinely empowered professionals caused to Zheng Yichen was instantly healed. The curse power that some mages had blessed on their weapons had no effect, as it dissipated upon contact with Zheng Yichen’s energy membrane; the remaining part was absorbed by the cat spirit cloak.

Demigod Kraywatt found it troublesome to deal with Zheng Yichen, whose pure Divinity had no direction, making it difficult for him to figure out which type of demigod Zheng Yichen was. Even a demigod with a breakthrough later in life would have their Divinity change accordingly due to their own particular strengths.

Pure Divinity is easily influenced, but this does not weaken the power it brings. On the contrary, it allows the Divinity Power to be better utilized.

Not to mention the power inherent in Zheng Yichen’s own weapon, the forces he employed himself were enough to color the individual’s Divinity and alter its properties.

Moreover, his weapon was already a ’Divine Artifact’; wielding such a weapon would also influence the pure Divinity, causing its nature to change.

Yet all of this was strangely ineffective on Zheng Yichen, whose recovery powers looked just like those of the Life type, but he couldn’t sense the Life type Divinity Power in Zheng Yichen. His strong recovery powers were entirely due to some trait of his own.

This made Klevait think of a kind of giant serpent that had super strong recovery powers by nature; equipment made from that magical beast’s hide could grant the wearer exceptionally formidable, nearly immortal recovery powers. Such a beast could even ignore magic like Draining of Life, and even a demigod’s use of Draining of Life could only suppress the beast’s recovery powers.

Zheng Yichen’s performance was even more exaggerated than that beast, directly ignoring the Draining of Life he released.

And his weapon had so many attributes!

Life, death, Hellfire, Holy Flame, wind, and the power to twist space. Zheng Yichen himself also had the power to distort space, and together, they made the spatial distortion attached to his attacks even stronger.

Fortunately, it was just spatial distortion; with their overwhelming numbers, they could suppress the disturbance it caused to the environment. But the idea of capturing Zheng Yichen immediately was unrealistic. The mages’ curses were useless, restrictive magic was useless, and the participating Luminous Holy Maiden even used Edict Magic.

This kind of magic belonged to Divinity Magic Word, like a Death type True God telling some being to ’die’, and the power attached to the word could indeed cause the listener to die on the spot.

The Luminous Holy Maiden was neither a god nor a demigod, but while the Luminous God granted them power, they were also given ’Edicts’. Edict Magic was like a modular version of Divinity Magic Word, functioning only within the scope of the Edicts, not as flexible as when a True God spoke.

But once used, it was a special magic not even demigods dared to underestimate.

Edict: Judgment, Restraint, Protection.

These were the Edicts used by the Luminous Holy Maidens, powerful enough to control Zheng Yichen once effective. In contrast to their greed, it was clear the Luminous Holy Maiden intended to capture him alive. As for her actions, those present were not supportive, but they didn’t do much else—the main reason being that they were too close to the City of Dawn Light.

Lay a hand on the Luminous Holy Maiden? Hmm... if they went too far, it would be normal for a divine strike to come slashing from the City of Dawn Light.

A city with divine laws is, in effect, a ’magic tower’ for a True God.

Luckily, Zheng Yichen was strong enough, not only resisting the Luminous Holy Maiden’s Edict Magic but also raising their strength to a new level. An assassin found an opportunity to deliver a stab with a dagger to Zheng Yichen. The wound wasn’t severe, but the attack was poisoned, enough to paralyze and weaken a demigod.

Zheng Yichen was slightly affected, but the impact wasn’t too great. He countered the weakening state by burning his Life Force, and just like that, curses were useless, poison was useless, and even the Luminous Holy Maiden’s Edicts were ineffective—their level of power had soared.

The problem was that there were several demigods among those fighting him. Although an unfortunate Death type demigod had been killed by Zheng Yichen, the remaining demigods were no longer careless. In addition, some professions were not as strong as demigods overall, but they were not weaker than demigods in some attacks.

Yet, they were still unable to capture Zheng Yichen, which gave them the illusion they were fighting a True God. No, compared to a True God, Zheng Yichen was probably just short of a Divine Kingdom. He couldn’t use his pure Divinity to ’use’ his powers more effectively, combining his abilities with Divinity to transform into Divine Power.

But the power Zheng Yichen used, influenced by pure Divinity, was by no means inferior to Divine Power.

"Ah—!!" In the midst of battle, a demigod cried out in agony, part of his eyes covered by Black Light. Klevait glanced at the demigod, knowing he was skilled in the Mental type, and seeing his current state, he had obviously lost in a mental clash. Alright, Mental type attacks were also ineffective against Zheng Yichen.

However, the battle could still go on. The Mental type demigod was in a bad shape, but he quickly suppressed the effects of the Black Light and re-engaged in combat. Klevait noticed something wrong—the Black Light had a considerable impact on that demigod. Even after suppressing the Black Light, when rejoining the fight, instead of becoming more cautious, he became more aggressive and greedy.

Eager to bring down Zheng Yichen.

As many powerful individuals gradually adapted to the intensity of the fight and laid siege, Zheng Yichen did not sustain any evident wounds, but his Life Force began to noticeably decline. As a Demigod of Life, Klevait had an excellent Life Perception.

This perception was like hanging a quantified health bar over Zheng Yichen’s head, to more accurately observe the status of the enemy. Under the mutual cover of temporary allies, the health status of everyone involved remained fair.

There were no unhealthy ones; only those who were in a healthy state or dead. They had casualties, and the decline of Zheng Yichen’s Life Force also proved that he was not invincible.
