Chapter 1087
A hundred percent of Zi Chen's power was like hitting cotton, softly negating nearly half of Zi Chen's attack power in an instant. The remaining fifty percent hit the brawny man, but there was no reaction. The brawny man didn't even take a step back.
As for Zi Chen, he was struck by the burly man's spear. The spear broke his glove, and with a clanging sound, sparks flew everywhere. Zi Chen was forced back several meters.
Zi Chen frowned. He crossed his arms and took the initiative to attack again. A sharp fist light illuminated the world, and a terrifying fist light shot straight towards the burly man.
Peng!
The world shook once more. The burly man's spatial light shield was extraordinary. It once again reduced half of Zi Chen's strength. But this time, because Zi Chen's strength was too great, even though half of it was reduced, the burly man was still forced back several meters.
The burly man who was retreating had a look of surprise on his face, but it was only surprise. His expression was more of a mocking one. When Zi Chen's attack passed through the light shield, it would be dissolved, but when his attack passed through the light shield, it would be magnified.
So, even if it was a light strike, in Zi Chen's eyes, it was a full-strength strike.
The two turned into bolts of lightning. They began a fierce chase. Light flashed again and again. The two of them were evenly matched. But it was fine if they were evenly matched. And from the looks of the battle, Zi Chen was actually at a disadvantage. Just like the demon ape, he was beginning to be afraid of everything.
With the three pages of the Heavenly Book, Zi Chen's combat strength was unparalleled within his level. He was invincible. Suppressing a spirit body was something that could be done in a matter of minutes. But here, he first encountered a Demon Sovereign that was on par with him, and then he encountered this strange burly man.
And what was even stranger was that the burly man was relying on this strange light shield to suppress him.
The spirit bodies in the distance didn't approach. Instead, they watched from afar. They had seen Lv Peng's strange injuries, and now they were even more afraid of the burly man. Especially the spear in his hand. It contained a strange strength that frightened them.
The battle in the field was both intense and dull. Intense meant that the two of them were going all out, and the energy they released was extremely terrifying. Even spiritual bodies had to retreat. Dull meant that every attack was the same, and the two of them were unable to do anything to each other.
Everyone could naturally see that Zi Chen had his concerns and had not used his peak strength. However, facing this strange muscular man and his strange spear, anyone would have their concerns. Moreover, the blue spatial light barrier around the muscular man's body was like a tortoise shell, almost impossible to break through.
Su Mengyao's pale face gradually recovered. She looked at Zi Chen who was fighting in front of her and said, "Okay, you can go all out now."
What Su Mengyao meant was that she had recovered from her injury. If he was injured, she could heal him.
Suddenly, Zi Chen's aura changed. Thunderous sounds rang out from his body. This was the result of his increased blood flow. At the same time, it was also the result of his perfect constitution.
Amidst the rumbling sounds, Zi Chen's body started to radiate gold and silver. This was the result of activating two types of perfect essence force.
On his back, the thunder wings started to vibrate at a high frequency. Gusts of hurricanes appeared out of nowhere. His eyes were as cold as lightning. His killing intent surged, sending chills down one's spine.
The muscular man's expression suddenly turned grave. He seemed to feel pressure from the current Zi Chen.
The thunder wings vibrated, and with a flash of light, Zi Chen rushed towards the muscular man. Like lightning, Zi Chen arrived in front of the muscular man in an instant. Then, he clenched his right fist and punched towards the muscular man in front of him.
Previously, he had used both fists. Now, he was using only one fist. At a glance, it seemed that there was one less fist. However, the power of this fist was several times stronger than before. In addition to using his full strength, this fist also carried a kind of indomitable momentum, and an indomitable aura.
On the fist light, gold and silver energies were circulating. The aura of these two energies was also several times stronger than before.
"Boom." The fist light hit the light shield, and an explosion sounded.
This fist was a solid hit, unlike the previous one where it felt like it hit cotton. If it really was cotton, then this fist was equivalent to squeezing the cotton to its limit.
The two types of perfect essence force in the fist light exploded, erupting with a destructive force that was several times stronger. Under this destructive force, the spatial light shield on the surface of the muscular man's body sank deeply, forming a huge hole. At the same time, the entire light shield was constantly twisting and trembling.
After all the strength was released, the muscular man's body was sent flying by Zi Chen's strike through the spatial light shield. During the process of flying, blood began to flow from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Zi Chen with a solemn expression that gradually turned into one of shock.
This was the effect of Zi Chen's strike, but the muscular man wasn't idle either. Facing Zi Chen's indomitable aura, the muscular man didn't retreat or block. Instead, he allowed the strike to hit him. At the same time, the strange spear in his hand broke through Zi Chen's defense and stabbed into Zi Chen's body as the fist light raged.
The spear was very sharp, but it wasn't that easy to break through a Perfect Body. After expending a lot of strength, just as it stabbed three inches in, Zi Chen's fist light's strength completely erupted, sending the muscular man retreating.
The muscular man flew for a hundred meters and slid dozens of meters after his feet landed on the ground. He was about 605 meters away as he stared coldly at Zi Chen. The shock on his face had already disappeared, replaced by a sneer. "You are very strong, but you are injured. You will definitely die."
The muscular man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face filled with confidence and smugness.
Looking at Zi Chen again, golden blood flowed out of the bloody hole in his body. The blood was like pearls as it splattered to the ground drop by drop. However, the blood that originally didn't dissipate turned into golden blood when it landed on the ground.
While injured, Zi Chen felt his tenacious vitality in the blood that flowed out. To be more precise, his vitality had transformed into blood that flowed out of his wound.
After experiencing it personally, Zi Chen finally understood why Lv Peng's injury had caused him to bleed far more than the total amount of blood in his body. So this was the reason for the strangeness.
The flaming spear actually had such a strange divine power. It was almost like a legendary divine weapon. Anyone who was hit by it would probably die.
However, Zi Chen didn't die. With the Three Pages of the Heavenly Book, he had cultivated the true perfect power. After many transformations, the perfect power had become truly perfect.
Therefore, he felt a power that didn't belong to him in his wound. It was this invisible and untouchable power that was causing mischief. Therefore, Zi Chen tried to use the perfect technique and perfect power to expel this mysterious power.
As a result, a miracle happened.
The mysterious power on Zi Chen's wound was dispelled effortlessly. At the same time, the bloody hole on his body stopped bleeding in the blink of an eye and formed a scar. After a few breaths, it was completely healed and was as good as new.
"How is this possible?"
At this moment, everyone looked at Zi Chen in disbelief, including the spiritual body in the distance, the devil ape, and the muscular man who was full of confidence. Only Su Mengyao's expression didn't change much. She seemed to have expected this to happen.
"You actually managed to break through the nomological powers here. Alright, I admit that I underestimated you, but I'm afraid you won't be so lucky next." The burly man's expression calmed down again, but there was still an uncontrollable shock in his eyes.
He gripped the spear in his hand tightly, causing the surrounding spatial barrier to tremble. Then, he held the spear and took the initiative to attack Zi Chen.
"Tyrannical Fist." Zi Chen wasn't to be outdone as he clenched his fist and struck. This was a Connate technique, Tyrannical Fist. It was extremely powerful.
The boxing glove that emitted a blazing light collided head-on with the spear. A powerful force erupted once again.
The two of them swayed before attacking again.
Instantly, light and shadow intersected as they exchanged blows.
Golden blood splattered in the sky. This was caused by Zi Chen's Perfect Body breaking through his defense. However, these injuries weren't fatal.
Looking at the burly man again, although Zi Chen didn't break through his spatial barrier, his powerful strength left him coughing out blood.
It was another evenly matched opponent. Zi Chen fought extremely strenuously. In addition, this opponent was wearing a turtle shell, making it impossible for Zi Chen to unleash his full combat strength.
During the battle, Zi Chen used almost all the techniques he could. Of course, they were all Connate techniques. However, these techniques could only restrain and not kill the enemy.
In other words, the combat strength of the two was equal at this moment. Even if they fought for another few hours, months, or years, the outcome would be the same.
Around them, the faces of the others were also solemn. This was clearly the first of the nine stages of the Human Path. However, even on the first day, the guardian's combat strength was on par with Zi Chen's. Wouldn't the following stages be even more difficult?
At this moment, everyone felt that it was difficult to clear the stage. Ascending the Stairway to Heaven was even more difficult.
"I still have one last move. If it's useless, I can only abandon the other party and forcefully clear the stage." Zi Chen's voice transmission sounded in their sea of consciousness.
Using the force of the attack, the two of them pulled apart the distance between them. Zi Chen clasped his hands together and began to form seals. One seal after another appeared, and the aura released from Zi Chen's body grew stronger.
"It's useless. As long as you can't break this spatial barrier, I won't die. And this spatial barrier is formed by the laws of this place. To put it bluntly, I represent the laws. You can't kill me," the burly man said proudly.
Zi Chen didn't say anything. Instead, he formed the hand seals even faster and more frequently. Just as the hand seals were about to be completed, Zi Chen stared coldly at the muscular man and said mockingly, "When I was in the Spirit Origin Stage, I killed a representative of the rules."
As soon as the seals were completed, Zi Chen pointed at the burly man in front of him.
The might of that one finger swept through the sky, shaking space. The void suddenly split open, and a thick finger imprint fell from the sky with boundless pressure. Light flickered on the finger imprint, and gold and silver lightning slithered around it like snakes. It was surrounded by a terrifying aura.
This was the innate level technique, the Finger of the Thunder God, and it was displayed by Zi Chen at this moment.
"It has the form but no power. There's nothing to be afraid of." The burly man sneered and held his spear against the Finger of the Thunder God.
A strange power flashed on the spear, and then it touched the finger. A strong force burst out and the Finger of the Thunder God collapsed. The burly man only took a few steps back.
"I've already said that this is useless. I am the law representative, and I represent the law."
