Chapter 692: Chapter 380: Investigating Memory and Dispute

How could this be?!

The instant he identified the aura of a Galaxy Level Powerhouse, Lie Yan subconsciously denied his inner thoughts, even more desiring to reject the scene he was seeing.

A Starburst Level defeating a Galaxy Level?

In his understanding,

calling it a sheer fantasy would not be an exaggeration at all.

Lie Yan was not ignorant, he was very clear about how vast the difference between the two was.

In the universe, the division of realms does not have any symbolic differences due to the various differences in cultivation techniques, laws, races, and so on.

But that does not mean that the gap in combat power between levels is vague.

Because the only standard used to distinguish each realm is very straightforward and crude.

That is destructive power.

If you can destroy a planet with your own strength,

then you are at the Starburst Level.

If you can easily destroy an entire galaxy, then you are a Galaxy Level Powerhouse.

The same principle applies to even higher levels.

Therefore,

the scene of Chen Sheng beating up a Galaxy Level Powerhouse before his eyes.

In Lie Yan’s view,

looked like a toddler who just learned to walk beating up a big and strong man who had practiced Kung Fu for many years.

This simply isn’t something that could happen under normal circumstances.

Could it be… that Chen Sheng was hiding his strength?

But what was the point of that?

Reality is not like the stories in novels.

In these fantasy works, concealing one’s strength can lead to dramatic conflicts and move the readers emotionally.

But in reality,

hiding it everywhere would only attract unnecessary trouble.

Only strength,

is the pass to walk the universe.

However…

Regardless of what the facts are,

the crisis has not been resolved, it’s not the time to be shocked.

He glanced at the Illusionary Master not far away.

After his initial shock, Lie Yan quickly regained his composure.

He felt the condition of his body, and let out a sigh of relief.

Indeed.

Just as he expected,

although all his strength was erased within the Illusionary Realm,

upon returning to reality, aside from a splitting headache, Lie Yan had not lost his in-body strength.

From this point,

he confirmed one thing.

The Illusionary Master’s strength might not be that strong.

Even, one could say that all the other’s energy was concentrated on illusions or consciousness, and could not directly affect reality through the Illusionary Realm.

Now,

retaining his own strength,

he might be able to attack by surprise.

At the very least,

eliminate the possibility of the other party hindering Chen Sheng and simultaneously subdue and interrogate them for clues.

Having this thought,

Lie Yan’s gaze swept imperceptibly toward the Illusionary Master nearby.

The other appeared to be shocked by Chen Sheng’s strength and dared not make any reckless moves for the moment.

If that’s how it is…

His Spiritual Power silently operated, pushing the cloaking technique bestowed by the Spiritual Martial King to the limit.

High temperature,

began emanating continuously from his body.

Lie Yan was looking over the shoulder of the Illusionary Master.

In the depths of his eyes, a chill quietly surfaced.

——————

Boom!!!

Another punch, heavily falling.

Vibrations kept coming from the ground beneath his feet.

It seemed the entire planet was in fear of the power of this punch.

“You’re the toughest bastard I’ve ever killed,”

“No exceptions.”

Ignoring the nearly mad look in the eyes of his enemy below,

Chen Sheng faintly delivered his assessment.

While he was talking, he didn’t stop his actions.

In the time it took to utter those two sentences, he had already thrown three more punches.

The head that initially barely maintained an oval shape,

now closely resembled the shape of a pancake.

It was just one step away from being completely shattered.

“What kind of monster are you…?”

The voice coming from the head was muffled.

But it was tinged with almost tangible shock and killing intent.

Chen Sheng didn’t respond.

He never liked to speak any sort of nonsense before his enemies died.

Giving those two comments was already the limit.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Finally,

after Chen Sheng’s relentless efforts,

accompanied by a crisp sound,

like celebratory fireworks bursting on the ground.

The skull beneath his feet, arguably the toughest head in history, finally broke into a mess of brain matter and debris.

“Phew—”

He exhaled a long breath.

He stretched out his palm, allowing Xiao Hei to transform into drops of water and fall.

Then,

the fist clenched once again.

Chen Sheng looked down thoughtfully, inevitably sighing in his heart.

I… am still too weak.

This wasn’t Chen Sheng being falsely modest.

Just like Lie Yan had thought,

forcing a Galaxy Level to fight using Starburst Level strength was inherently impossible.

Chen Sheng managed it by relying on something akin to a “trick.”

Thinking this,

he looked down at the remains below his feet.

This so-called Galaxy Level Powerhouse, similar to the previously encountered Earless Man, was a Law-based powerhouse.

The vast expanse of flesh and debris that covered dozens of square kilometers around him was the handiwork of this Galaxy Level Powerhouse.

When Chen Sheng first encountered him,

he was instantly overwhelmed by countless Hellhounds he brought along.

Each of these monsters possessed Starburst Level strength.

Even for Chen Sheng, they were extremely difficult to kill.

Not to mention,

the Hellhounds had incredibly strong vitality.

Injuries like severed hands and feet could recover in an instant.

Even if their bodies were smashed, the remains would directly merge into the bodies of other Hellhounds, enhancing their strength.

To not kill was to be beaten to death,

to kill would possibly result in facing a monstrous beast with strength comparable to a Galaxy Level.

In that moment, Chen Sheng was truly caught between a rock and a hard place.

He had even started to consider how to escape.

But before he could take any concrete action, a new development arose.

As another Hellhound died before him,

an inexplicable strength surged within Chen Sheng.

Indescribable, even hard to observe,

but with the emergence of this strength, the monsters seemed to lose their unique abilities.

The dead monsters no longer strengthened the others and showed no signs of resurrection.
