639: Chapter 636 Cooperation and Joint Action

Against the previous attacks, Wei Yang could annihilate a large area with every punch.

Even if some attacks slipped through, they only left a few pits and hollows on his body, which vanished in an instant.

The physical enhancement provided by the divine ability Heaven and Earth Fusion was truly substantial.

It reached the point where, facing Chen De's offensive, the only things that truly required Wei Yang's focus were the occasional divine ability attacks interspersed within.

"Such trivial attacks. Is this all you're capable of?"

Chen De remained silent in the face of Wei Yang's mockery, continuing his strikes unperturbed.

Simultaneously, he intentionally or unintentionally led him toward other parts of the battlefield.

Chen De naturally knew that in a one-on-one situation, all his previous attacks were essentially futile.

No matter how much they traded blows, he wouldn't be able to inflict any effective damage.

Without an extraordinary super-finishing move, failure was inevitable, no matter how smoothly the fight seemed to go initially.

"Why bother?"

Wei Yang shook his head; perhaps he had seen through Chen De's plan, or perhaps not, but it didn't matter.

Because he knew perfectly well that the victors of this battle could only be them.

Thus, from the beginning until now, he had maintained a playful attitude.

Since the other still harbored a glimmer of hope, he would let the bloody facts do the talking.

"A fellow like you will never understand the persistence of people like us."

Although the opponent was from the Heaven and Earth Profound Sect and was someone corrupted by an Evil God, Chen De had little interest in conversation.

If it were the actual person, he might have been interested in chatting to fish for information.

But the problem was that this thing was just a playback; what could it possibly say to him?

In that case, he might as well take the opportunity to say a few harsh words to show his loyalty.

Perhaps there was some lingering will within this inheritance space watching their performance right now.

If so, taking the chance to say a few good things would certainly be beneficial and harmless.

If those few pleasant words managed to win him a massive amount of benefits, it would be a huge gain.

Then, Chen De spotted a Quasi-Saint from the same camp who was also suppressing his opponent.

He sent a secret transmission: "Brother, these damn things are too troublesome. We can't keep grinding like this."

The man he approached smashed his opponent into the battlefield floor with a single hammer strike, burying him so deep he couldn't be pried out.

Yet, even though the opponent had been smashed to smithereens, he recovered completely in the blink of an eye.

Then came another fierce hammer blow, followed by another, and another.

Although he couldn't be killed, he was beaten until he had absolutely no power to fight back.

It was clear that against such opponents, it was better for powerhouses with high explosive power and pure violence to handle them.

However, after a long time, it seemed the results were similar for everyone.

The body cultivation Chen De had substituted for this fellow was purely to increase his defense; in close quarters, he really couldn't be as violent as him.

After all, aside from archery, he hadn't practiced anything else, and his spiritual treasures were all related to arrows.

Therefore, when he fought, he had to use sets of smooth combos and ensure seamless transitions.

Yet this guy had the spare capacity to respond to Chen De while fighting.

"Makes sense. Let's join forces then."

This person was more straightforward than Chen De expected, immediately indicating his intent to cooperate.

Without further exchange, the two shared a glance.

Great Ring Thousand Chang!

He immediately unleashed his strongest divine ability.

Rings appeared around the great hammer—not just one, but countless; not side-by-side, but nested.

With a swing of the hammer, it slammed heavily into Wei Yang, whom Chen De had brought over.

On the other side, Chen De also unleashed his pre-prepared Seven Star Source Burst, venting it all at once.

Although the duration of Wei Yang's divine ability hadn't ended yet, he was still smashed to pieces by the hammer and then frantically strangled by Chen De's arrows.

In terms of power, as Chen De was now cultivating two paths simultaneously, Seven Star Source Burst was actually superior to Great Ring Thousand Chang.

Separately, their ultimate moves couldn't achieve a one-hit kill, but together, they could.

Soon, Wei Yang was beaten down until only a tiny black mass remained, writhing frantically.

Seeing this, the hammer-wielding powerhouse didn't waste any words, quickly acting to imprison it, turning it into the shape of a small black stone.

Not completely destroyed? Just as this question flashed through Chen De's mind, a piece of information immediately surfaced.

What they had just obliterated were the uncorrupted parts of the corrupted individual.

The corrupted parts, originating from an Evil God, required power at the Great Dao level to be wiped out.

Experts of the Saint Extreme Realm comprehend the Great Dao, while those of the Divine Tribulation Realm cultivate it.

Thus, to utilize the power of the Great Dao, the minimum requirement was to be an existence at the Saint Extreme Realm.

So that's how it is.

Chen De only learned this today.

However, considering that while he was also an Evil God, he was only at the Immortal Realm, it was normal for Evil Gods at the God Realm to have more abilities than him.

Therefore, for beings below the Saint Extreme Realm like them, even if they won, they couldn't completely kill the enemy; being able to seal them was already the best outcome.

After dealing with Wei Yang, they immediately moved against the one who had been hammered into the ground.

Using the same coordinated attack, he met the same fate as Wei Yang.

As for the small black stone formed after the sealing, the man gave one to Chen De.

For them, this item could be used to reward merit after the battle ended.

Since they had dealt with these two together and Chen De's strength was not inferior to his, sharing one was clearly a wise choice.

Chen De gripped the small stone with its unique texture, feeling the cold aura constantly emanating from it.

Along with the corruption power that couldn't be completely isolated—though, of course, this had no effect on an immortal of the Immortal Grade.

But if someone in the Mortal Realm touched it, they would be corrupted and twisted instantly without any resistance.

So, is the objective of this stage for them to collect these small black stones?

After the battle on the Ancient Battlefield ends, whoever has the most will be the winner of this stage.

Of course, this was just his speculation.

However, since they had been brought here, it was certainly to observe their performance; that much was for sure.

Thinking of this, Chen De was about to speak and see if they could continue cooperating.

Instead, the other person spoke first, "I see your moves are quite efficient. Why don't we cooperate further? We can split any subsequent gains fifty-fifty."

Seeing that the proposal aligned with his own intentions, Chen De didn't act coy and immediately agreed, "Of course. I am Nan Shuang. May I know how to address you, brother?"

"Tang Qian!" the other person also stated his name.

The cooperation was established just like that, without any so-called bargaining.

Because from their current performances, neither had reached a level where they could force the other to make concessions.

The future distribution of benefits wasn't set in stone; it would ultimately depend on their respective performances.
