Chapter 1553 - 886: All Trump Cards Revealed
The roar was like thunder, and within that terrifying sound wave, a powerful Spirit Power Shock was contained!
This was the gene skill of the Golden-Furred Hou, Intimidation!
This skill combined sound waves with Spiritual Power to create a dual mind-and-senses intimidation ability.
At such close range, Jin Shirong was almost instantly hit.
Fear flashed violently in his pupils, and his whole body began to tremble.
Liang Yuan’s Spiritual Power was far above Jin Shirong’s.
He had just probed this when Jin Shirong used Spiritual Telekinesis earlier.
And once Liang Yuan discovered that Jin Shirong actually had Super Healing Ability, he immediately switched his attack method.
No need to attack Jin Shirong’s physical body—that would be a complete waste of effort!
What he needed to do was attack the enemy’s spiritual consciousness!
Sure enough, with one Intimidation strike, he instantly shook Jin Shirong’s Sea of Consciousness!
Without saying a word, Liang Yuan condensed another terrifying Spirit Shock!
Boom boom boom!
His Spiritual Power was already fierce; frenzied Spiritual Energy turned into a giant wave, madly crashing into Jin Shirong’s Sea of Consciousness!
Jin Shirong’s head felt as if a giant hammer was wildly pounding it!
Blood sprayed from his seven orifices in an instant, and his brain felt like it was about to explode!
Under such a heavy hit, Jin Shirong’s main body finally snapped out of the Intimidation state.
He clutched his head and, without hesitation, directly activated gene recombination!
Buzz!
Blood mist blasted out, and his figure twisted and changed in an instant, swelling at extreme Speed!
But this underground tunnel was simply too narrow; he’d only grown to a bit over four meters tall before he was unable to expand any further.
Still, he had at least entered Genetic Form, so the fleshly limits of his human form were immediately lifted.
As a result, his Spiritual Power, previously only 120 points, skyrocketed in an instant!
In a flash, the stabbing pain in his mind vanished completely.
At the same time, Jin Shirong let out an angry roar and smashed a fist hard toward Liang Yuan!
Boom!
Liang Yuan’s body suddenly vanished with a teleport; the punch blew apart the air but hit nothing.
Jin Shirong teleported at the same time, slipping straight out from underground and shooting at extreme Speed toward the soil layer.
Seeing this, Liang Yuan immediately followed close behind.
In almost a single instant, the two had already broken through the soil layer and burst into the forest of Ming Fox Island.
Boom boom boom!
Intense booming explosions kept echoing from the sky.
Their Speed was pushed to the absolute limit, to the point that the naked eye could barely track their trajectories.
Only the Aftershock of the explosions resounded in the air.
And as the two rose into midair, Jin Shirong completely unlocked his genes, entering Genetic Reorganization State.
His figure expanded at extreme Speed, and in the blink of an eye transformed into a gigantic Genetic Beast, a full 86 meters tall!
Rumble!
Another blast—two figures shuddered and staggered back, smashing through the ever-changing clouds in the sky.
This time, the Genetic Beast that Jin Shirong had transformed into had already vanished.
He had once again activated his Invisibility Ability.
Not only that, he simultaneously unleashed his Spatial Ability.
With two abilities stacked, under normal circumstances the enemy would never be able to detect his whereabouts!
Yet just as he flew to the left, about to launch a surprise attack on Liang Yuan—
Liang Yuan suddenly let out a cold laugh. He spun around; in his Ice Bear form, his whole body turned into an ice sphere and, with a boom, he slammed forward in a frenzied charge.
Thud—!
That patch of Space collapsed in an instant!
Then terrifying icy air rapidly froze that entire area.
But Jin Shirong’s body had already ignited in advance; with a boom, he blasted apart that layer of ice and slipped out in an instant.
At the same time, he violently yanked with both hands at the void.
Rip!
That region of Space suddenly split open, and a Spatial Rift swallowed Liang Yuan in an instant.
It had to be said, Jin Shirong’s reactions were insanely fast, and the way he chained his abilities was endlessly variable!
But Liang Yuan was no weakling either.
Spatial Ability was also one of his specialties.
Swish!
At the very moment the Space closed, Liang Yuan had already opened a portal and slipped into it in an instant.
When he reappeared, he was already right in front of Jin Shirong.
Jin Shirong’s face was ugly now, and a hint of retreat had already surfaced in his eyes.
"This guy Liang’s Genetic Form actually reached nearly ninety meters tall—he’s even bigger than me!"
"Doesn’t that mean his gene recombination progress has already hit close to 90%?"
"Fuck, did he start his Cultivation before the Great Flood? How can he be this fast?"
You had to know, the reason his own Cultivation was so fast, first, was because all of Sprout’s resources had been piled onto him alone.
Second, he had countless clones; those clones cultivated together, and once they died, when their souls returned to his body, all their gene recombination experience would be absorbed and fused by him.
That meant he could skip countless detours.
Only then could he cultivate at such Speed.
But why the hell did Liang get to do this?
He couldn’t figure it out.
And what the hell was Liang’s true Superpower anyway?
He drew in a deep breath and retreated rapidly.
With a swish, the Space behind him twisted.
He teleported away instantly.
However, the moment he appeared somewhere else, a fist came crashing toward him!
Boom!
In his giant-beast form, his neck twisted into a braided rope on the spot, and his body tumbled away.
Liang Yuan had actually predicted in advance where he was about to appear.
This punch squarely snapped Jin Shirong’s neck!
If it were an Ordinary Superpower User, even in Genetic Reorganization State, once the neck was broken, they’d really be finished.
But Jin Shirong was clearly not an Ordinary Superpower User.
He possessed a powerful Super Healing Ability!
He rapidly retreated while hastily twisting his own neck back into place.
With a cracking sound, his neck immediately returned to normal.
But this whole motion had already cost him far too much time.
In a clash between experts, there is no room for the slightest mistake.
Liang Yuan appeared above his head at extreme Speed.
The next moment, strands of terrifying Spiritual Power crazily converged into a massive Spirit Shock wave!
Boom!
The horrifying Spirit Shock slammed directly toward Jin Shirong’s head!
"Ah—"
Jin Shirong let out a shrill scream.
Even after entering Genetic Form, his Spiritual Power was still inferior to Liang Yuan’s!
Right now Liang Yuan’s Spiritual Power was focused, wildly attacking his Sea of Consciousness.
At this moment Jin Shirong’s physical Super Healing Ability was too strong; only by attacking the Sea of Consciousness could he be killed in one blow!
Jin Shirong clutched his head, enduring the intense pain, and suddenly took out a huge golden helmet from his spatial ring!
He was about to slam the helmet onto his head to block Liang Yuan’s Spiritual Power shockwave!
But how could Liang Yuan let him have his way?
Liang Yuan waved his hand, and in an instant, he transformed into the Heaven-and-Earth Divine Banyan; countless vines shot out in a flash.
Puff, puff, puff...
The terrifying vines pierced straight into Jin Shirong’s body, then viciously yanked and tangled his four limbs.
At the same time, the Heaven-and-Earth Divine Banyan frantically absorbed the Life Force within Jin Shirong.
It even absorbed his Spiritual Power along with it!
In that instant, Jin Shirong immediately fell into panic.
He could truly feel his Life Force slipping away.
Even though his Self-healing Ability was constantly repairing his body, it simply could not keep up with the other side’s absorption Speed!
"Get off, get off me!"
Jin Shirong roared wildly, Spatial Rift after Spatial Rift continuously appearing.
With a tearing sound, the Spatial Rifts instantly sliced through the vines of the Heaven-and-Earth Divine Banyan.
However, by this time Liang Yuan had already condensed his Spiritual Power.
The mighty Spiritual Power turned into countless Puppet Threads, stabbing fiercely toward Jin Shirong.
Jin Shirong instantly sensed danger descending!
His pupils shrank, and in that split second he hurriedly entered teleportation state.
His figure was just about to shift away!
Yet the next moment, his figure suddenly appeared right in front of Liang Yuan!
Not only did he fail to move away, he actually came even closer to Liang Yuan!
For a moment, Jin Shirong didn’t even react.
Liang Yuan’s giant claw had already slammed down onto Jin Shirong’s true body’s skull.
Countless Puppet Threads surged instantly into his mind!
At that moment, Jin Shirong’s whole body trembled.
He kept driving his Spiritual Power to form a defensive shield within his Sea of Consciousness!
This was a Spirit Class Defense Superpower he had once obtained through Duplication!
But his Spiritual Power was already inferior to Liang Yuan’s; even with a Spirit Class Defense Superpower, it was completely useless!
Seeing he was about to be defeated by Liang Yuan, Jin Shirong suddenly waved his hand.
From the ring, a figure shot out in an instant!
That figure, while still in mid-air, immediately transformed into a strange Mutant Beast!
Then this Mutant Beast, with lightning Speed, drilled fiercely toward Liang Yuan’s body!
This Mutant Beast was different from ordinary Mutant Beasts; its size was extremely small.
It wasn’t even as thick as Liang Yuan’s fur!
At this moment, with a slick movement, it actually crawled toward Liang Yuan’s nostril!
Liang Yuan was shocked, and with no time to use Puppet Threads to Control Jin Shirong, he instantly redirected all Puppet Threads to stab toward this Mutant Beast.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
The strange Mutant Beast, like an iron-thread worm, immediately squeaked chaotically, letting out sharp wails.
But after just a few breaths, it went rigid and motionless.
No matter how Jin Shirong drove it, it could no longer move.
Liang Yuan instantly understood: this was Jin Shirong’s Beast Taming!
Jin Shirong actually possessed Beast Taming Superpower as well!
At this moment, with a desperate strike, Jin Shirong finally won himself a breather.
He hurriedly slammed the golden helmet onto his head.
In his massive Genetic Form, his head was a full seven or eight meters in length and width!
You could imagine how much gold it took to forge such a gigantic helmet!
Liang Yuan took a deep breath, holding this Exotic Beast as he stared at Jin Shirong.
He tried once more; as soon as his Spiritual Power touched Jin Shirong’s head, it was immediately weakened significantly by the golden helmet!
His Spiritual Power, which was stronger than Jin Shirong’s, was instantly reduced down to being on par with the opponent.
In this way, Jin Shirong’s only weakness was actually wiped out!
There was no other way to put it: Jin Shirong had too many trump cards and was far too hard to kill!
At this moment Jin Shirong also felt a lingering fear as he stared fixedly at Liang Yuan.
He panted for a few seconds, and only after his physical injuries had recovered quite a bit did he speak: "I underestimated you, Liang. I didn’t expect you’d really be able to find me, and even have this level of strength!"
"But it’s still impossible for you to kill me today."
"Your Spiritual Power is stronger than mine, but only by so much."
"With the golden helmet protecting me, my only weakness is gone."
"Now, it’s my turn!"
As his voice fell, he vanished in an instant!
