664: Wither
War Stomp.
A skill with restrictions on distance, charge-up time, and target status, all perfectly met at this moment.
A War Stomp released by a Rank 39 Mental Energy user, facing someone weaker in strength, should theoretically be able to instantly petrify them.
The golden light hit the Egg God as expected, but unfortunately, things did not go as planned.
The opponent's actions were not affected in the slightest; instead, he showed a curious expression, as if asking,
“Did you do something?”
“Immunity to Mental Energy characteristics, just like Yellow Demon?”
“No, that's not right.”
“He just seems to be simply uncontrollable.”
Chen Du, who was watching below, murmured, neither surprised nor shocked by this result.
Vice Chen Du's expression remained unchanged, a blue light flashing in his eyes.
As a Martial Artist obsessed with martial arts, he did not show even a hint of hesitation due to this change; Nimble Cats Grace was released immediately afterward.
Buzz!
Like War Stomp, this skill also successfully affected the Egg God.
Similarly, it still had no effect.
But a conclusion was reached.
The Mental Energy of this Egg God is Rank 33!
Compared to his strength, this is a very high Rank.
“Strange, he is not immune to Mental Energy, but rather...”
Chen Du's thoughts instantly manifested in Vice Chen Du.
In an instant, a light golden Domain enveloped the Egg God.
Facing this sudden change, the opponent looked around like a curious baby.
Has he never seen a Domain?
It seems that the Gloomy Land truly has no Domain Warriors; otherwise, if something like this had happened before, a Domain Warrior should have appeared.
Chen Du instinctively analyzed in his mind.
The Egg God within the Domain seemed unaffected by the Domain's suppression, appearing fine, just as before.
“Click.”
At this moment, a crisp snap of fingers came from Vice Chen Du's hand.
This time, the result was different from all previous skills.
The skill was not ineffective; it simply did not activate.
Although previous attacks were also all ineffective, they at least successfully activated and acted upon the target, just without producing any effect.
But this time, Domain Kill was different.
This time, it was just a simple snap of the fingers; the Kill did not activate.
Chen Du believed that his Life Strength Rank, Mental Energy, and Martial Skill should all be higher than his, and the conditions for the Domain's Kill should have been met.
Could it be because of Withering?
This was the only answer Chen Du could think of.
The opponent is the God of Withering; Withering what?
Life, or all things can Wither?
Chen Du did not know.
However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered the previous Annihilation.
This is a skill very similar to Kill, if viewed from the perspective of units.
Domain Kill is a subordinate unit of Annihilation.
Then Withering should belong to the same level of unit as Annihilation.
Even if Withering is not a subordinate unit of Kill, it is on the same level as Kill's superior unit, Annihilation.
If analyzed this way, can it be understood as not being able to “offend one's superiors”?
So, Kill, as a subordinate unit, cannot act against Withering, which is a superior unit?
Even if this Withering is still only a proposed unit, its essence is still your superior.
After these three attacks, Chen Du, who had seen countless skills, also reached his own conclusion.
The opponent does not possess the ability to immune Mental Energy attacks like Yellow Demon; although it looks somewhat similar, it is not.
Instead, it is “unable to be in a negative state”!
War Stomp's immobilization, Nimble Cats Grace and the Domain's suppression, all are negative states, and all are ineffective against the opponent.
The most terrifying thing is, inability to be injured!
Because injury is also a negative state.
Chen Du quickly realized that this was a mechanism issue.
With his strength, he could not harm the Egg God.
The opponent's only relatively weak point was physical defense; Chen Du felt that if he could be stronger, he might have a chance to break through that white pattern.
But the subsequent attacks were truly ineffective.
Physical defense is probably the Egg God's only weakness at present.
Inability to be injured is relative.
Or rather, any ability is relative.
The opponent probably relies on this characteristic to come out so fearlessly, but he is also a cautious person, because he chose the Gloomy Land, a place without Domain Warriors.
At this moment, the battle in the sky ushered in new changes.
Perhaps he had played enough, the Egg God, who had not shown any clear attacking intent, finally made a move again.
“Withering!”
The Egg God's voice suddenly rang in Chen Du's mind.
In an instant, Black Flames inexplicably rose on Vice Chen Du's longsword and the Hand of Atim.
These burning parts were all areas that had previously come into contact with the Egg God's body.
Clearly, the opponent can ignite things that touch his body.
Because the longsword also burned, this Withering refers to the Withering of all things, not just the Withering of life!
Furthermore, these Black Flames recognize people and do not burn the Egg God himself; they only target Vice Chen Du.
The opponent's tail was still wrapped around the gradually collapsing Hand of Atim; the Black Flame had no effect on him.
Click!
The Egg God's tightly coiled tail suddenly missed, striking together.
Vice Chen Du activated his etherealization and stepped out of it.
He then used Mental Restart to refresh his body, but unfortunately, these Black Flames could not be cleared; it seemed that as long as he was not dead, these Black Flames would continue to burn.
Mental Restart could only continuously restore his state and increase the lethal dose.
Once the limit was reached, he would still die.
After Vice Chen Du escaped with etherealization and discovered Mental Restart was ineffective, he immediately discarded his longsword and severed the connection between the Hand of Atim and his body.
This was the first time Chen Du felt that needing a weapon as a medium to exert power, this genetic flaw, was sometimes a good choice.
The burning longsword and the parts derived from the Hand of Atim, without the help of Mental Restart, quickly withered and rotted, turning into a pile of residue.
After the target withered, the cluster of Black Flame did not spread to the surroundings, meaning this ability only affected the first contact target.
It would not spread.
But it also made sense; if it could spread indefinitely, the entire planet would wither.
The Black Flame disappeared along with the longsword and the parts derived from the Hand of Atim.
However, just as Vice Chen Du thought the opponent's ability had ended there.
His body, like a candle, suddenly ignited!
An invisible flame silently appeared, burning away Vice Chen Du's lifespan!
Withering had not yet ended!
