646: Location of Dynasty Civilization Headquarters
Feeling the surging power emanating from Vice Chen Du, coupled with the long-known difference in Martial Skills, Yerusalakun's heart felt a faint premonition of danger.
“Bluster!”
He roared and took the initiative to attack.
Yerusalakun possessed the ability to control both fire and wind, and could combine them to make the fire even more ferocious.
He held a fireball in one hand and a wind ball in the other; the two merged to form a fire lotus the size of a basketball, seemingly extremely unstable and on the verge of exploding at any moment.
“I've changed my mind. I'm not going to bring you back to our Civilization anymore. You can die here right now!”
With that, he flew towards Chen Du, holding the fire lotus. It seemed this fire lotus was not a thrown attack, but a close-quarters combat method.
Facing the charging Yerusalakun, Vice Chen Du maintained his composure and calmness:
“If you can't do it, you can't do it. No need to change your mind.”
“You changed for what?!”
Chen Du stood his ground, raised his sword to meet the attack, and the two instantly clashed.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The intensity of the aftershocks generated by their clash was enough to kill Advanced Martial Artists watching within a certain range.
The collision of power at the Domain Warrior Level, even if it was only Entry-Level, was not something Advanced Martial Artists could witness.
“Caught in the crossfire” is precisely what this meant.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sounds comparable to nuclear bomb explosions occurred with the frequency of a string of firecrackers.
The surrounding terrain and landscape changed again, becoming pockmarked like the surface of the moon.
“Damn it!”
“How could this be?!”
“What kind of recovery ability is this? Does it have no limit?!”
“And why do some of my attacks pass through your body? What kind of ability is this?!”
Yerusalakun asked in terror.
When he first fought Chen Du, he couldn't inflict any damage on him; he was always the one getting injured.
But now, in terms of pure strength, he was the stronger party, though not by much, he was still the stronger party.
He could now inflict damage on Chen Du.
However, he never expected that the wounds he inflicted on the other party would heal instantly; the other party would recover completely in less than a second.
In contrast, due to the difference in Martial Skills, the Unique characteristic of never healing was triggered by the other party's attacks, and his own injuries would only accumulate.
Considering this, he had to severely wound Vice Chen Du.
But his long-planned fatal attack would inexplicably pass through the other party's body!
It was clearly right in front of him, but he just couldn't hit it!
“Damn it!”
“Why is this happening?!”
Yerusalakun roared, as if questioning the heavens, and also as if venting the unwillingness in his heart.
At this moment, he already had a faint premonition of danger.
“Why so many questions? I’m simply stronger than you.”
Vice Chen Du replied coldly.
“Ahhh!”
“Impossible!”
“Absolutely impossible!”
“How could this happen? I just became a Domain Warrior, I am invincible, how could I lose to an Advanced Aerial Warrior?!”
“An illusion, this must be an illusion!”
Yerusalakun shrieked and charged towards Chen Du.
“Watch me tear apart this illusion!”
Facing the seemingly deranged Yerusalakun, Vice Chen Du was like a dedicated employee, swinging sword after sword with an attitude of giving his all and striving for perfection… at the entrance/exit of the Land of Abandoned Armor Sector.
[Congratulations, Host! Crescent Moon Swordplay has advanced from River Severing 88% to River Severing 89% in the Second Rank.]
“This rate of improvement, it seems the Zhan Zhan Fruit is still working its magic.”
Chen Du muttered to himself.
He flew to the entrance/exit of the Land of Abandoned Armor Sector, where a figure was already waiting for him.
It was none other than Vice Chen Du.
After Chen Du sent Moreit back to the Seventh Ecological Circle, he flew towards the entrance/exit of the Land of Abandoned Armor Sector.
Vice Chen Du, after eliminating Yerusalakun, went directly to this location to wait for him, apparently having something to give to the main body.
Due to the detour, Vice Chen Du would arrive at the destination before Chen Du.
The two shared memories and vision, so there was nothing to communicate; the words Vice Chen Du spoke earlier were also spoken by Chen Du's main body.
Although Vice Chen Du was a perfect Clone of Chen Du, strictly speaking, if the two Chen Dus fought to the death, the main body would still be stronger.
This was mainly due to four factors.
One: Vice Chen Du did not have Crystal Space.
Two: Vice Chen Du could not use the Crystal Summon ability to summon a Clone to fight alongside him.
Three: Vice Chen Du did not possess a true eternal heart, adding the weakness of an extra heart, because he was not life, the eternal heart could not grant him infinite lifespan, and it was precisely for this reason that the binding could never be completed.
Four: Vice Chen Du did not have any items or resources.
Although he was a perfect Clone, this perfection was infinitely close to perfect, and it only targeted Chen Du's original body.
While High Martial Civilization bracelets and Storage Rings would appear on Vice Chen Du, they were fake, merely decorations, equivalent to clothes transformed by the Crystal Space.
Vice Chen Du only had the longsword that Chen Du could infinitely pull out during challenges in the Crystal Space.
Simply put, whatever Vice Chen Du looked like in the Crystal Space, that's how he would appear when summoned.
He was essentially a copy of a naked Chen Du, just with adornments.
This was also why Chen Du used his main body to take Moreit back.
Because he needed to send a message!
But these were not significant differences, at least not for the current Chen Du, unless he possessed heavens favor of Yan, which truly could instantly kill Vice Chen Du.
Currently, Vice Chen Du's practicality even surpassed the main body, as he could perform the ultimate move of 'Art is Explosion'!
The main body naturally possessed this area-clearing ability, but dared not use it, as the backlash was too terrifying; his combined lives amounted to one true life and nine false lives, totaling ten lives.
If it was just to kill some alien races of a lower life Rank, then it was fine, like the Quasi-Warrior stage and Martial Warrior Level, like killing chickens.
But if he were to kill alien races of the same life Rank, meaning the Sky Soaring Warrior stage, then these lives would quickly be exhausted.
The closer to his own Rank, the greater the consumption, especially.
This was also why Great Civilizations could slaughter Small Civilizations.
Even the strongest Small Civilization generally had only 5 to 6 Domain Warriors.
Below the Domain stage, it was comparable to killing chickens; a snap of the fingers would wipe them all out, just like Chen Du now killing those at the Martial Warrior Level; he didn't need Vice Chen Du, as he could withstand that level of backlash himself.
The only difference was that a Rank 30 Domain Warrior still didn't dare to kill so wantonly, as the backlash from Rank 29 was still a bit painful.
But after Rank 31, he could essentially kill at will; firstly, the gap between the two further widened, and secondly, the pseudo-Domain would become a true Domain.
So strictly speaking, Rank 31 was the true starting point for a Domain Warrior.
This was also why the Rank 30 to 30.9 stage was called the pseudo-Domain stage.
Although they were all Domain Warriors, the difference was immense.
Especially in Great Civilizations, Rank 31 was considered a true core member.
Plop.
Chen Du landed.
The two Chen Dus met, and Vice Chen Du handed a map to Chen Du before disappearing.
Vice Chen Du had already seen this map, and Chen Du naturally knew its contents, but out of instinct, he glanced at it again before throwing it into his Storage Ring.
This map was naturally obtained from Yerusalakun, and it did not record any rare resources.
Instead, it was the location of a Civilization's headquarters.
Dynasty Civilization!
