Chapter 7613
He got a pretty bad lesson
Mo Lihai is at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm; how can this be described as "a little higher"?
That's on a completely different level, so much better!
This is not a fair fight at all; it's a complete stomp!
How could he possibly fight like that? Even if he were a genius, it would be impossible for him to cross two major realms and defeat an ancient powerhouse at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm!
She seemed to sense Xiao Chen's discouragement and resentment.
A cold glint flashed in Mo Lihai's eyes, and he shot out another sharp spear beam from his hand. It was faster and more powerful than before, heading straight for Xiao Chen's head. His killing intent was chilling, and he showed no mercy.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen's face turned deathly pale, and his discouragement was instantly replaced by his instinct to survive.
He dared not hesitate for a moment, and immediately mobilized all the divine energy in his body, gripped the Reverse Scale Sword in his hand, and thrust out the sword, revealing its sharpness.
Facing an opponent like Mo Lihai, he could finally unleash his full potential and go all out.
Even though he was beaten badly every time, even though he was on the verge of death every time, the thrill of this life-or-death battle made his blood boil... It was terrible, but it was also very exciting!
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the spear light and sword energy collided violently, and a terrifying power erupted instantly.
Xiao Chen's body was directly blasted away by this force, crashing heavily to the ground, dust flying everywhere, making him look even more disheveled, and he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Mo Lihai flashed and instantly appeared in front of Xiao Chen, looking down at him with a low and solemn voice, saying each word clearly:
Do you know why I'm using a level of power that completely crushes you to deal with you?
He paused, his tone growing increasingly firm, carrying a profound warning:
"Let me tell you! The path of cultivation is inherently fraught with life and death; there are no shortcuts. And geniuses must learn to kill enemies of higher levels in order to gain a foothold in the cruel world of martial arts!"
"If you can withstand my attacks, if you can stand up and fight back time and time again under the pressure of the peak of the Divine Soul Realm."
Then in the future, when you face an opponent stronger than you, you will feel that the other party is nothing special!
Because you have already witnessed stronger beings, and have become accustomed to struggling on the edge of life and death, you no longer feel fear!
Only those who are fearless dare to face powerful enemies and slay them! Only then can they truly roam freely across the world, unstoppable by anyone!
Mo Lihai's voice, like a thunderclap, echoed in Xiao Chen's ears, jolting him out of his despair. He continued in a deep voice:
"Also, remember this: the path of martial arts is inherently cruel and ruthless. No one will fight against you at the same level. You may face enemies who are ten or even a hundred times stronger than you at any time!"
"At times like these, only killing and desperate situations can unleash the full potential hidden within you!"
The war god phantom you conjured is an unparalleled trump card. If you can use it wisely and completely control it, you will surely defeat me in my current state, and may even be able to kill opponents stronger than yourself!
Xiao Chen froze, abruptly raising his head, his gaze instinctively falling on the illusory image of the God of War behind him…
He was horrified to discover that despite his repeated defeats and being killed by Mo Lihai time and time again in the past few days, he had been able to achieve his goal.
But the war god phantom behind him had unknowingly grown stronger and more solid, and its aura was much more powerful than before.
The discouragement and resentment in his heart were instantly replaced by a burning fighting spirit. Xiao Chen stopped thinking about it, his eyes gradually filled with bloodshot veins, and a deafening roar burst from his mouth.
He gripped the Reverse Scale Sword tightly, his divine energy surging wildly within him. With a single strike, he tore through the surrounding spiritual energy, aiming straight for Mo Lihai's vitals with unstoppable momentum!
"Excellent! That's how you should be!"
A hint of approval flashed in Mo Lihai's eyes. He nodded slightly, shifted his body slightly to the side to avoid Xiao Chen's sword, and at the same time struck out with a palm. The palm wind was fierce and carried terrifying power, heading straight for Xiao Chen's chest.
Just as the palm strike was about to hit Xiao Chen, a glint flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes, his steps suddenly turned, and his body soared into the air, rapidly flipping through the air.
The sword in his hand suddenly changed direction, drawing a strange arc, bursting with killing intent, and stabbed straight at Mo Lihai's back!
At the same time, the phantom of the God of War behind him let out a ferocious roar.
His body swelled up dramatically, unleashing a powerful aura that merged with Xiao Chen's sword intent, roaring out together and sweeping towards Mo Lihai!
"boom!"
Two terrifying forces collided violently within the Soul Tower. A loud bang shook the entire Soul Tower, and Xiao Chen's body was once again blasted away, spitting out a mouthful of blood before crashing heavily to the ground.
This time, Mo Lihai was also shaken back two steps by this power. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he showed a gratified smile: "Very good, you are getting better and better. I admire you more and more."
Xiao Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, abruptly scrambled to his feet, his face showing no sign of pain, but instead revealing an arrogant smile, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism:
"Hehe, I had a lot of fun too! Let's play again!"
Before he finished speaking, he once again gripped the Reverse Scale Sword, his figure like an arrow, charging madly towards Mo Lihai with overwhelming fighting spirit and showing no sign of retreat!
……
And so it went, the life-or-death duel never stopped. Another day passed, and today was the last day of Xiao Chen's seclusion, the final moment of his battle against the phantom of Mo Lihai.
For three whole days, Xiao Chen seemed to have gone through a purgatory-like ordeal and baptism!
Every time he was killed, every time he was seriously injured and on the verge of death, every time he struggled to get up, his potential was constantly being squeezed out and his will was being tempered.
During those three days, he did not slack off or back down in the slightest, repeatedly teetering on the brink of life and death, and constantly breaking through in desperate situations.
Whether it's his skillful martial arts, lightning-fast reflexes, or immense strength, everything has seen explosive growth. Compared to before his seclusion, he's completely different, and his strength has improved by more than one level!
The war god phantom behind him expanded several times over with each battle and tempering, its body becoming increasingly solid.
He was surrounded by immense pressure, and he already had a hint of domineering and arrogant aura!
With a roar, the Soul Tower trembled all around, spiritual energy surged, and its overwhelming power was enough to make any strong person tremble with fear!
At this moment, Xiao Chen's condition became even stronger, his fighting spirit soared, his divine energy was abundant, and his aura was condensed and terrifying. Even though his body was still covered in blood, he could not hide the sharpness of being reborn from the ashes.
In contrast, Mo Lihai's phantom was extremely weak. Its originally solid form had become ethereal and illusory, almost transparent, as if it would completely dissipate into the air in the next second.
At this moment, Xiao Chen stopped wielding the Reverse Scale Sword, remaining silent and refraining from further attacks. (End of Chapter)
