149: Chapter 149 Countdown

However, Chen Moxuan waited for nearly a minute, yet still did not see any sign of the enemy.

"Strange, my Spiritual Sense clearly perceived them..."

His Spiritual Sense had clearly captured four Auras quietly approaching, and they were constantly advancing in his direction.

Yet, these four people seemed to have encountered a ghost wall; despite constantly moving forward, they were unable to get even an inch closer to him.

"No... it is I who have encountered a ghost wall."

Chen Moxuan furrowed his brows slightly, a strange feeling rising in his heart.

"Something is interfering with my Spiritual Sense."

Realizing something was wrong, Chen Moxuan immediately focused his mind, concentrating his attention on his spiritual platform.

At this moment, he sensed a layer of mist tightly surrounding his spiritual platform, severely interfering with his perception.

His eyes narrowed, and he immediately withdrew his Spiritual Sense that was spread outward. He then concentrated all his Mental Energy, transforming it into a long sword, and slashed fiercely toward that layer of mist.

"Ah!"

A man's shrill scream pierced the silence.

Chen Moxuan turned his gaze toward the sound.

He saw that on the previously empty street, two men had suddenly appeared out of thin air.

One of them was clutching his head with both hands, his face full of pain.

The other man was only a few meters away from Chen Moxuan, with green, viscous liquid swirling around his right arm.

"A Mental-type Special Ability." Chen Moxuan understood immediately.

Although a Transcendent with a Mental-type Special Ability does not possess immense destructive power and their physical body is weaker compared to others of the same rank,

their Soul strength is half a tier higher than their peers.

Furthermore, this man's Special Ability was a rather bizarre type within the Mental-type, capable of directly affecting others' perception, making it impossible to guard against.

For opponents who do not know how to utilize Mental Energy for defense, as long as there is not a massive gap in Soul strength, it is difficult for them to avoid being affected by his Special Ability.

First, use the Special Ability to shield the opponent's perception, then have another companion quietly inject poison into the enemy to achieve a one-hit kill.

Unfortunately, he not only knew how to defend with Mental Energy, but his Soul strength was also superior to his.

Chen Moxuan used a crude Mental Energy shock to break his Special Ability, making him suffer the pain of backlash.

Moreover, besides Mental Energy, Chen Moxuan was a hexagonal warrior capable of blasting them away with a single punch.

Seeing the sneak attack exposed, the man's eyes turned fierce. The dormant poison on his right arm condensed into a sharp spike at a speed invisible to the naked eye, piercing fiercely toward Chen Moxuan with the force of breaking through the air.

However, at the moment their eyes met, Chen Moxuan's fist, wrapped in fierce wind, appeared before him.

The fist wind whistled past with overwhelming power, blasting into a mist of blood.

It then continued on without losing momentum, attacking the person behind him.

"Two big brothers, why aren't you attacking yet!"

At this life-or-death moment, the person with the Mental-type Special Ability, his eyes blood-red, shouted with his last ounce of consciousness.

Almost the moment his voice fell, Chen Moxuan's fist had already closed in on the man's face, leaving only ten centimeters from that terrified visage.

But immediately after, Chen Moxuan felt his body sink heavily, as if dozens of tons of weight had suddenly pressed down on his physique out of thin air.

The ground beneath his feet emitted "crack, crack" sounds of shattering under the immense pressure, with cracks rapidly spreading in all directions.

Chen Moxuan mustered all his strength, wanting to break free from this pressure that had appeared out of nowhere, but felt a bone-chilling coldness strike from beneath his feet.

However, his reaction was extremely swift, and he immediately circulated the True Qi within his body.

Blazing fire-attribute True Qi surged from his Dantian like raging magma, quickly condensing under his feet into a suit of True Qi armor burning with raging flames to resist the erosion of the cold.

Then, he exerted force with both feet, stomping fiercely onto the ground, and used this powerful reaction force to charge forward, as if breaking free from that high-pressure area.

Looking back, the area where he had just been was already covered in a thick layer of ice.

And the criminal who had barely survived Chen Moxuan's hand had also turned into an ice block, then shattered into pieces under the heavy pressure.

"Hey, Freezing Man, how could you attack a companion as well?"

"What companion? I've long had enough of this fly that keeps ordering me around in my head."

Two voices came from the rooftops on both sides of Chen Moxuan.

One was a burly man with shoulder-length curly hair, and the other was a pale-faced, thin man.

They were the A-rank criminal Gravity Man and the A-rank criminal Freezing Man.

"I only froze him; the one who truly killed him was you, you stinky curly-hair."

"I had already controlled the output power of the gravity field to be very low. If you hadn't frozen him, it would have at most broken his bones; how could he have ended up shattered into pieces?"

"Also, this is a common hairstyle for artists, please do not include the word 'stinky' when commenting on it."

"Your hair looks like year-old spoiled instant noodles; the stench has already reached my face from far away." Freezing Man said, frowning.

"Hahahaha, if you dare to insult my hairstyle again, I will let you know what it feels like to have a gravity spear go in your throat and come out your ass!"

The Aura of the two was tense, as if they were about to fight, completely ignoring Chen Moxuan below.

"Excuse me, let me interrupt."

Chen Moxuan's voice came calmly,

"I see that you two seem to have known each other for a long time and have a lot to talk about, but I would like to remind you of one thing."

"Within ten seconds, if you both come at me together, you still have a chance to cause me some trouble."

"Huh?"

The two turned their heads simultaneously, looking at Chen Moxuan in disbelief.

"Kid, you don't think that being able to break free from my gravity field just now was because your strength is high, right?"

"You don't think you can really block my cold air, do you?"

The two's anger instantly focused on Chen Moxuan.

To them, this person was a fish on the chopping block, ready to be slaughtered at any time.

But now, this fish lying on the chopping block actually dared to slap its tail at them!

Chen Moxuan acted as if he didn't hear them, simply counting down calmly:

"Ten... nine..."

"Freezing Man, I'll deal with you after I finish off this brat!"

"Did I agree to let you attack first?"

Gravity Man ignored Freezing Man's words and jumped down first.

He pressed his hand down, and an invisible gravity field instantly enveloped Chen Moxuan's entire body.

This pressure was countless times greater than before.

The surrounding ground, under the squeezing of gravity, instantly collapsed, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Kid, your speed is fast, but within the range covered by my gravity field, even taking a few steps is just wishful thinking!"

Gravity Man's mouth curled into a smug sneer, his eyes full of disdain.

However, the moment his voice fell, Chen Moxuan activated the [Overlords Heavy Body] secret technique, forcibly bearing the mountain-like pressure and slowly stepping forward a few steps.

He didn't speak, but Gravity Man felt as if his face had been slapped hard by someone, stinging with pain.

"You're courting death!"

Gravity Man was immediately enraged, his eyes narrowing instantly, and he contracted the coverage range of the gravity field.

With the rapid contraction of the range, the pressure within the gravity field increased geometrically, as if wanting to crush everything into dust.

Under this terrifying pressure, Chen Moxuan's legs gradually sank into the ground inch by inch, until everything below his knees was deeply embedded.

However, he continued to mutter the count:

"Five... four..."

"Still being stubborn!"

Gravity Man gripped the air with his right hand, and a gravity spear condensed with the gravity Special Ability appeared in his hand.

After this gravity spear hits an opponent, it can apply gravity in the direction of the impact to the hit area, with extremely strong penetrating power.

He aimed at Chen Moxuan's head, intending to throw it fiercely at him when the opponent counted to one.

He wanted to see, with the opponent completely unable to move right now, what could he possibly do after ten seconds?

Nothing but becoming a stubborn corpse.

And Freezing Man, far away on the rooftop on the other side, was crossing his arms in front of his chest, also watching this scene with great interest.

At this moment, Chen Moxuan's countdown was nearing its end.

"Three... two... one."

Gravity Man let out a contemptuous sneer, waved his right hand abruptly, and flung the gravity spear fiercely.

The gravity spear quickly passed through Chen Moxuan's head and inserted diagonally into the ground behind him.

"What a farce." Freezing Man shook his head in disdain upon seeing this.

But just the very next instant, a bone-chilling sound of bones and flesh shattering suddenly rang out, echoing in the air.

Looking again, Gravity Man's body had exploded instantly like fireworks, turning into a shocking mist of blood, with only his head flying up in terror, his eyes full of unbelievable fear.

The gravity spear from just a moment ago had not hit Chen Moxuan at all; it had only passed through the afterimage he had left in the light.

Chen Moxuan had not only broken free from the gravity field, but also launched a fatal strike with a terrifying speed that exceeded their reaction limits.
