Chapter 693: Chapter 380 Investigating Memory and Dispute_2
It seemed,
that the laws which filled the Hellhounds’ bodies and bestowed upon them their wondrous traits were directly eradicated by Chen Sheng.
The cause of this occurrence was unclear.
But it did not hinder Chen Sheng from hastening his killing of the Hellhounds, until he found the Galaxy Level Powerhouse hiding within their mutilated corpses.
“Who exactly are you?”
“To actually be able to dispel the Power of Law?”
These were the first words the Galaxy Level Powerhouse uttered upon encountering Chen Sheng.
In response,
what he met was nothing but Chen Sheng’s fist.
It must be said,
a Galaxy Level is still a Galaxy Level after all.
Even though the opponent was predisposed towards the system of laws and not adept at physical combat.
When facing Chen Sheng, whose strength was wholly concentrated in straightforward assaults and in his flesh, the foe was not at a disadvantage at all, even seemingly suppressing him instead.
Had it not been for Chen Sheng’s resilience, being forced back several times with injuries that healed in an instant,
And with the enhancement from that unexplained power, each time Chen Sheng killed a Hellhound during the battle, he was able to disrupt the consciousness of this Galaxy Level Powerhouse.
Who would ultimately win or lose was still unknown.
Therefore,
at this moment Chen Sheng looked at his clenched fist, puzzlement emerging in his eyes.
That mysterious power made him recall the joys and the issues regarding the Practitioner.
Although Joy called him a Practitioner, a seed capable of creating entirely new laws,
he had no clue about it.
Until the appearance of this mysterious power, which led Chen Sheng to wonder if it was related to his path.
Regrettably,
after the battle ended, the unexplained power vanished without a trace, no matter how he sought for it, as if it had never appeared.
But Chen Sheng believed.
If this really was the Power of Law he was practicing,
it would surely appear again in the coming days.
As for the present,
he decided to first focus on the matters at hand.
He set aside his train of thoughts.
Chen Sheng looked down at the corpse beneath him, sending a message to Xiao Hei.
“What’s the result?”
“No soul, he ran away.”
Xiao Hei emerged from the corpse, returning to its position on Chen Sheng’s knuckles.
At the same time, it also brought bad news.
“Is that so…..”
Chen Sheng muttered lowly.
He glanced at the Blue Light Barrier in the distance, his eyes flashing with contemplation.
Through a round of battle,
he had successfully confirmed that neither this Galaxy Level Powerhouse nor the previous Illusionary Master,
were actually subordinates carrying the aura of their lords. They were merely disguised, lacking the traits of true subordinates.
Otherwise,
with the speed at which Chen Sheng was delivering his punches,
he could never kill a Galaxy Level subordinate.
But even though he managed to defeat him with a mysterious power from an unknown source, Chen Sheng had never thought he could succeed in putting the opponent in a situation where he was at his mercy.
The answer Xiao Hei provided further confirmed the suspicions in his heart.
And now that he had escaped,
the news of their arrival would inevitably be leaked.
It seemed… it was time to quicken their pace.
Thinking this,
Chen Sheng looked towards the battle not far away.
There,
Flames soared high, with the potential to incinerate all things.
Yet, there were three other forces continuously countering it.
In Chen Sheng’s field of view,
Lie Yan frowned deeply, Sweat continuously sliding down his forehead, apparently enduring great pain.
In front of him,
was the Illusionary Master, who kept trying to escape but was stopped by Lie Yan time and time again.
Also, there were three Martial Gods, controlled by the Illusionary Master, their faces dull and expressionless.
In the exact moment Chen Sheng turned his attention to the battlefield,
the Illusionary Master’s gaze happened to meet his.
Seeing that Chen Sheng had already taken care of the Galaxy Level Powerhouse, a look of horror first crossed his face, then quickly turned to ruthlessness.
Whatever he did,
the bodies of the three Martial Gods who were attacking Lie Yan suddenly stiffened, and pain appeared on their faces.
The fluctuations of power began to dissipate uncontrollably.
The Illusionary Master,
was actually planning to self-destruct the bodies of the three Martial Gods to create an opportunity for himself.
Though the three Martial Gods were not strong,
a self-destruction of their in-body power could certainly destroy much of the planet and disrupt the local laws, creating conditions for escape.
As long as he could successfully call for backup,
be it that freak or the trash of the Spiritual Martial World,
facing the power of the Resistance Army, they would only face suppression.
Holding these thoughts,
the Illusionary Master’s face warped with ferocity as he bellowed.
“All of you go——”
His words came to an abrupt halt.
It was replaced by a burst of blood.
With a thud,
the Illusionary Master’s head, still twisted with ferocity, rolled to the ground, as Chen Sheng stomped on it.
“Quickly,”
Chen Sheng ordered softly,
flinging Xiao Hei into the fallen head.
This time,
the Illusionary Master’s soul did not escape.
Xiao Hei rapidly relayed the memories back.
Chen Sheng directed his gaze towards Lie Yan, who was still not over the shock.
“Prepare yourself,”
“We don’t have much time.”
He was ready to first browse through the other’s short-term memory,
to ascertain both Long Aotian’s whereabouts and the enemy’s power situation on this planet before heading straight for their lair.
Saying this,
Chen Sheng then closed his eyes, starting to read through the memories.
At the same time,
the sound of bodies thudding down followed one after another.
With the Illusionary Master no longer in control, the self-destruction behavior of the three Martial Gods also ceased.
They fell from the sky one by one.
“Ah?”
“Oh.. okay.”
It was only then,
that Lie Yan, stunned by the sudden turn of events, managed to respond incoherently.
With a flicker of his form,
Lie Yan quickly reached his three companions’ side and began healing their wounds.
While waiting,
he looked towards the nearby Chen Sheng, his eyes faintly filled with awe and fear.
If Chen Sheng’s thrashing of a Galaxy Level was still somewhat unbelievable to him,
