745: Because I'm awesome

ultimate resource?

How is that possible!

Chen Du found it hard to believe. Although Sam's identity was somewhat extraordinary, he was only Rank 32 himself. How could he carry an ultimate resource with him?

If anyone were to carry it, it should be the leaders of their Azure Sky Civilization.

Sam's strength was not weak. If he wanted to leave, Chen Du probably wouldn't be able to stop him, just as he arrived.

This was also why Chen Du had wanted to cripple him with one move earlier.

Igniting the Life Ignition Cord was a suicidal act, but the mask the other party wore could clearly grant immunity from death.

The situation on the battlefield was constantly changing, and Chen Du didn't have time to ponder so many 'whys'.

But... if the ability of this ultimate resource required igniting one's own Life Ignition Cord as a prerequisite, then Chen Du would be its bane!

"Truly a delightful power."

Sam looked at Chen Du with a look of assured victory, in a state similar to slight intoxication, and said faintly.

Just then.

Suddenly, a Blue Cat appeared without warning on his chest, just as it had appeared in his consciousness without warning at first.

"Hmm?"

The Blue Cat gently patted his chest, and with a "snap" sound, something seemed to shatter.

Immediately after, the intense black fluctuations around Sam disappeared, like smoke dispersed by the wind.

"You..."

Sam's eyes widened abruptly. He touched the mask on his face. This thing he called an ultimate resource now seemed to be just an ornament.

Then, he looked at Chen Du with an incredulous and somewhat incomprehensible gaze:

"You interrupted... no... you destroyed the Life Ignition Cord?"

"You actually destroyed the burning of the Life Ignition Cord, how is that possible!"

"Because I'm awesome."

The moment Chen Du's words fell, he immediately activated Bloom. Due to the lagging Martial Skill, the power gap between the two was not large. Even with a speed advantage, it would take a relatively long time to determine the victor.

But Chen Du judged that the other party had the ability to escape, so he needed to end the fight quickly.

However, he couldn't kill Sam immediately. This was a Domain Warrior from an Overlord-level Civilization, not only Rank 32, but also a being whose potential reached the level of one of the Azure Sky Civilization's leader successors.

He must have mastered a lot of important information that Chen Du wanted to know.

Now, Chen Du's life level had reached the Domain stage. Theoretically, he should be able to use Dream Flower to pull Sam into a dream for endless Reincarnation.

But it was better to cripple the opponent first, which would likely increase the chances of success.

Otherwise, once it failed, antibodies would form, and he would permanently miss this opportunity.

As for the False Rank, this ability could not be combined with Dream Flower.

Although a higher Life Strength Rank could resist Dream Flower to a certain extent, using Dream Flower on an alien race with a lower life level than oneself would not strengthen it, as this was an ability of Mental Energy invasion.

Life level would not bring amplification, but it did provide resistance against lower-ranking individuals attacking higher-ranking ones.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two instantly engaged in close-quarters combat, fist to flesh. Chen Du, in his Bloom state, was brave and decisive. Sam was no match at all, being beaten back step by step.

Although Chen Du had always fought with a longsword before, habit did not equal necessity. Regardless of whether he had a longsword or not, his power remained what it was.

Moreover, after losing his longsword, Chen Du had a peculiar feeling, a feeling that perhaps only those Sky Soaring Warrior who needed weapons before reaching the Domain stage could experience.

At this moment, Chen Du fell into a profound state of Epiphany. The duration of Bloom was only three minutes, but at this moment, his perception of time detached from reality. Every second felt like an eternity to Chen Du.

He could only hear the sound of his own fists striking repeatedly.

This sound was different from a sword, yet so similar.

[Congratulations, Host, your Martial Skill level has increased from Third Order Ascension 1% to Third Order Ascension 2%]

Hmm?

The system prompt in his mind suddenly jolted Chen Du awake.

He hadn't expected his Martial Skill level to increase by 1% in such a short time. One must know, he was at Third Order Martial Skill now!

The difficulty of improvement was imaginable.

After all, no one had ever been heard to reach Fourth Order Martial Skill.

Fourth Order was rarer than a Starry Sky Warrior, because there had never been a precedent.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Sam, in the midst of the battle, clearly felt Chen Du's power grow stronger by another notch, and immediately realized that the other party's Martial Skill had improved.

"How is that possible!"

"Your speed of improvement..."

Sam was at a loss for words to describe his astonishment.

According to the intelligence he initially had, Chen Du was merely an Advanced Aerial Warrior of Rank 29.9. After arriving here, the other party was a Rank 30 Domain Warrior.

This could be understood as the other party being on the verge of a Breakthrough at that time. As for Martial Skill, he was indeed a Genius that even Sam couldn't compare to, having reached Ascension 1% at the Sky Soaring Warrior stage.

But how much time had passed since then?

He had improved again!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"What method did you use?"

"For Ascension-level Martial Skill, at a Life Strength of Rank 30, even the super Geniuses of our Azure Sky Civilization would need at least ten years to go from 1% to 2%."

"How could you have done it so quickly?"

"Because I'm awesome!"

"Have you never seen a true Genius?"

"Or are you saying... the Azure Sky Civilization, as an Overlord-level Civilization, is just so-so!"

Chen Du smiled confidently. He had fought against the last generation Black Dragon King and the second generation Qilin King from the former Overlord-level Civilization, who were at the same Rank as him, so he naturally didn't think the Azure Sky Civilization was that impressive.

Of course, this was limited to 1v1.

"Presumptuous!"

"The Azure Sky Civilization is not something you can profane!"

"You are nothing but an insect, who merely stumbled upon a bit of power!"

Sam defended, but had to admit that he was indeed suppressed by Chen Du now.

And he was suppressed very severely.

Chen Du, relying on his combat experience, saw through the other party's attempts to create distance several times, likely intending to use the method he employed when he arrived, for escape.

After all, even his ultimate resource had been broken by Chen Du.

Although there was an element of luck here, the ability of that Senluo Mask, unfortunately, had to first ignite the Life Ignition Cord, and Chen Du just happened to be able to destroy this mechanism.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Chen Du stayed close from beginning to end, not giving Sam any opportunity.

Three minutes quickly passed. Although the effect of Bloom ended, Sam was also severely injured.

Chen Du didn't hesitate for a moment. At the opponent's weakest moment, as he looked up, their eyes met.

Dream Flower, activate!

...One second later.

Chen Du's eyes revealed a great deal of sudden enlightenment.
