Chapter 1069
The Beast-Transforming Headgear
As soon as Zhiyin finished speaking, the female referee on the field continued reading in an enthusiastic tone:
"Next, we will move on to the high-level challenger competition. Please welcome our Giant Shark and Python contestants to the stage. Let's look forward to seeing what kind of sparks will fly between these two contestants!"
As the female referee finished speaking, a fighter wearing a giant shark mask, followed by a man wearing a python mask, stepped onto the stage for the battle from the back of the arena.
Their height difference was quite obvious, but for some reason, they were all wearing behemoth-like headgear, seemingly arranged this way to increase the contestants' recognizability.
At this moment, the giant shark arrived on the stage, staring at the python opposite it, and immediately uttered a harsh threat:
"It's just a small python, what right does it have to be compared to a giant shark?"
The python said in a sinister tone, "I hope you can withstand this python's deadly venom, otherwise, you may die a terrible death!"
After both sides finished speaking about the war...
The atmosphere in the entire venue was instantly ignited!
Everyone hoped the match would be even more exciting than expected, and they all cheered together:
"Good, good, that's the kind of atmosphere we need. It would be best if we could actually fight."
"The python and the giant shark are both veteran high-level challengers in the arena. I didn't expect them to fight together!"
Are they members of the venue?
"Based on speculation, that's most likely the case, so today's match is probably more of a performance."
"I see. But the battles between high-level challengers should be quite exciting!"
"I am very sure of that!"
The atmosphere on the field became lively, and the battle between the giant shark and the python was about to break out!
A phantom image of a shark, shrouded the giant shark, transformed into a long, flowing river that lunged at the python.
The python immediately began to move its supple body, trying to avoid the giant shark's bite.
It must be said that pythons are quite agile; they were able to dodge the giant shark's repeated bites.
"So this is the Dharma form of the behemoth?"
Chen Ye could tell that Liu Xiuzhen was also using the same Dharma form, except that the direction of her transformation into a giant beast was that of a Kunpeng, which was much larger than the other two.
However, it is clear that the behemoth transformation is also a remarkable Dharma form, capable of conjuring beast armor for use in challenging opponents.
The hoods they wear are probably designed to highlight their unique characteristics and make them memorable to the audience.
After all, to become a star player, you need more than just popularity; you also need a lot of attention.
obviously.
Wearing such a headgear allows the audience to more easily recognize their characteristics and thus remember their matches.
As the battle on the field intensified, it gradually became more and more heated.
The behemoth-like Dharma form became even more ferocious and continued to expand.
See this scene.
Chen Ye could roughly understand that the so-called behemoth transformation was to choose a behemoth and optimize one's own Dharma form based on its habits and attack methods.
It's somewhat similar to psychic abilities...
The more one understands the habits of this behemoth transformation, the higher the attack damage can be, and the more completely the Dharma form will materialize. Everything depends on whether one's own laws are consistent with the direction of one's behemoth transformation.
"Liu Xiuzhen's Dharma form is quite extraordinary. Ordinary people may never have seen a Kunpeng, but Liu Xiuzhen's Kunpeng Dharma form is just like an ancient mythical beast, truly possessing vitality in the form of a Dharma form."
"The appearances of these two are nothing compared to Liu Xiuzhen's Dharma."
Chen Ye thought to himself.
The giant shark lunged at the python, opening its blood-red maw, intending to devour it whole.
At this point, the python seemed to have completely lost ground!
After all, the giant shark's attack power and biting characteristics are far more outrageous than those of a python.
Direct combat aggression.
But at that moment, the python suddenly coiled around and went straight behind the giant shark. Its movements were extremely fast, and taking advantage of the giant shark's moment of surprise, it bit the back of the shark's head!
"Ouch!"
The giant shark let out a muffled groan, immediately feeling a tearing sensation on its back, accompanied by the immediate onset of the python's venom...
At this moment, the giant shark had to invoke its immense spiritual power to calm the feeling of being invaded by the Dharma form.
The python realized its opportunity had arrived.
They attacked repeatedly.
With constant attacks, the Great Shark now has more and more vulnerabilities.
Under constant tearing and biting...
Finally, the giant shark's form was mercilessly bitten through with several large holes. As the form completely collapsed, the giant shark's own spirituality was also completely squandered.
"The victor of this match belongs to the python!"
The female referee spoke passionately.
Having witnessed such a thrilling match, the audience couldn't contain their excitement and began discussing it animatedly.
"This match is truly spectacular! The two colossal, beast-like Dharma forms are locked in a fierce battle, making it much more interesting to watch!"
"After all, the behemoths are all one family. It's like family fighting family. There's nothing more exciting than this."
"Both are giant beasts, but I didn't expect the python to be slightly better. It's about to transform into a huge, thick python. I really don't know how powerful it must be to have reached its current position."
"Yes, this is the power of the giant python. Even as a fellow behemoth, it still possesses a multitude of abilities to subdue its opponent. It is truly extraordinary."
"There's nothing we can do; the giant python's strength is just that incredible!"
"They actually managed to take down the giant shark! Our giant python is really something else!"
"Indeed, this giant python seems to be even stronger than before. As expected of a high-level challenger, its battle is truly extraordinary!"
"There's nothing we can do. The giant shark seems to have done its best, but it still can't stop the powerful python. There's just no way to stop it."
"It seems there's another high-level challenger fight coming up. I wonder how they'll perform." "So there's another one today?"
"Battles with high-level challengers usually involve long rest periods, so let's wait patiently!"
When the game ended, the wait in the stands was much longer than expected.
Chen Ye and the others gathered together, sat in their seats, and watched the game.
"Congratulations! Want some candy?"
Wan Yi took out a string of candied hawthorns from his spatial ring and handed them to Chen Ye.
"Thank you."
Chen Ye thanked him, took the candied hawthorn, put it in his mouth, and began to taste it.
To be honest, the candied hawthorns from Sky City are really quite delicious.
It's at least a 70 or 80 out of 100 level.
Of course.
Compared to its own "Honest Restaurant," it's still quite inferior. After all, the taste of what the player makes is closer to the taste of the Great Celestial Empire of Foodies. But to be able to make candied hawthorn to this level, sweet but not greasy, is already very good.
After fighting in the stands for a while, Chen Ye's stamina was rapidly declining, and he was already feeling extremely hungry. So he would eat anything that came his way.
Of course, in order to accelerate the recovery of one's spirituality...
After finishing the candied hawthorn, Chen Ye took out a roasted chestnut from the spatial ring in [Infinite City], put it in his mouth, and ate it.
Sugar-roasted chestnuts are soft, chewy, and fragrant, while chestnuts fried at high temperatures have an even crispier texture, making them even more delicious.
As a qualified player, you naturally need different supplements to replenish your energy source.
Therefore, the food consumed in the Strange Era was blessed by the food sequence and could obtain some different effects. Unexpectedly, these effects could even be enjoyed in the Sky City. It seems that the authority of the Strange Era still has some power, at least in areas that are difficult to reach.
Chen Ye sensed that the battle of wits could reach a higher realm, a place where vast knowledge and spiritual guidance resided.
In short, there is nothing that cannot be solved by fighting magic. If that still doesn't work, it's because your own cultivation level is not deep enough, causing you to remain stagnant.
At this moment.
After resting for a while, Chen Ye felt that his mind and spirit were much more refreshed.
He then shifted his attention to the game on the field.
Zhiyin patted Chen Ye on the shoulder and smiled:
"Young man, your progress is really impressive! You've mastered the Dharma Form of Nothingness so quickly; that's truly remarkable!"
Chen Ye looked at his confidant in surprise: "You can see that my Dharma form originates from nothingness?"
“That’s natural,” Zhiyin smiled. “After all, I face those murals every day. How could I not know the true nature of these murals?”
"You have grasped the ultimate thing at the end of the Angelic Rise and Fall Diagram, so you are able to comprehend this Dharma form. That is truly remarkable!"
"Among all the beings I have guided, your level of comprehension is almost the highest. To see the essence of the mural in such a short time and to comprehend such a Dharma form is truly remarkable!"
Chen Ye smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps... my comprehension level is not that high, but rather my thinking speed is relatively fast. However, there are some special methods to achieve this effect."
"You're being modest," Zhiyin said with a smile. "No matter what means or methods you used to achieve this result, that's your own skill."
Chen Ye was somewhat surprised by the praise from his confidant, not expecting such high praise.
Upon closer examination, Chen Ye's abilities, his speed of progress, and his comprehension of Dharma forms largely depend on his unique talent, [Infinite Deduction], to achieve this level of progress.
If you lose this exclusive talent and have to draw it again next month, then everything will have to start all over again.
"We absolutely must hold onto first place this month, no matter what!"
Chen Ye thought to himself.
He planned to watch all the battle arenas today, and then look around Xuanwu Gate to see if there were any other areas where he could spend gold coins to improve his strength.
Having observed the challenges of the giant shark and the python, Chen Ye knew that these high-level challengers were very skilled in using their Dharma forms. It would be difficult for him to widen the gap with them using similar methods. Moreover, his Red Sun Dharma form might not be able to withstand the attacks of the giant shark and the python.
Fortunately, I grasped the method of infinite superposition.
Although the consumption of this infinitely stacked Dharma form will increase instantly, it can withstand most situations.
Chen Ye also realized just how demanding the conditions for a ten-game winning streak were.
I've only played a few matches, and my spirituality is already almost gone!
Fortunately, today was one of the last few battles; otherwise, I might not have been able to withstand such a huge drain on my spiritual energy.
now.
Sitting in the audience, I immediately felt much less pressure. I was no longer a contestant, but a spectator, and all I had to do was watch.
"Now I finally understand why this fighting arena has endured for so long!"
Chen Ye turned to Zhiyin and sighed, "Being able to watch the entire process of others' battles is very helpful to one's own cultivation and understanding. Moreover, the atmosphere of betting here is also very favorable to the audience's mentality, making them focus on who is right. In this way, with a certain accuracy, there will be a good show to watch."
Zhiyin smiled slightly, not denying Chen Ye's feelings: "Yes, that's the charm of the Battle Arena."
“Yes.” Wu Nian nodded. “Even when I see these battles, I can’t help but want to place a bet or go up and fight myself… It’s a pity that my identity is rather special and I probably can’t enter the arena like that.”
Wan Yi shook his head and smiled: "I'm not really interested in the battle arena, but being able to sit here and watch other people fight is quite a novel thing. I've never been to a place like this before, it's really quite interesting."
"It really is quite interesting!"
Jiufeng smiled, then turned her gaze to Chen Ye and sighed, "I didn't expect to witness such a wonderful match. It's definitely worth coming here... No wonder it costs fifty gold coins for a ticket. I initially thought it was a bit expensive, but seeing such a wonderful match makes it all worthwhile."
Daoist Dongxu and Daoist Yuxu both nodded.
For these two veterans, there was nothing they hadn't seen before, but to see their acquaintances dominating the arena was a rare and unusual occurrence.
Moreover, they also placed a bet of nearly ten thousand gold coins on Chen Ye's victory... (End of Chapter)
