200: Chapter 200 The Struggle

That patch of land seemed to have been gouged out of thin air, instantly sinking to form a shocking, massive crater.

As the blinding white light gradually dissipated, the sturdy man hidden within revealed his true form.

Lv Ling barely managed to steady himself against the impact of Chen Moxuan's kick. His gaze swept over, and he immediately recognized the man who had attacked them, blurting out:

"Andre! How did he appear here?!"

"Andre?"

Chen Moxuan had never heard this name, but he concluded that this person was definitely an enemy.

It was not just because of the surprise attack; more importantly, under his Spiritual Sense, he perceived that the previously undispersed Souls of the Transcendent were suddenly surging toward that man at this very moment.

Along with the Special Ability Laws contained within them, they were all swept away together.

"Damn! I haven't analyzed them yet!"

Chen Moxuan cursed inwardly and immediately activated [Reverse Orbit Shadow Trace] to contend with the other party.

This battle could have ended perfectly; all that was left was to settle the spoils.

In the end, the spoils were stolen by some boor who popped out of nowhere.

He wouldn't touch things he shouldn't take.

As for things he should take, no one else was allowed to touch them with even a single finger.

"Hmm?"

Andre, originally ecstatic, suddenly discovered that his Special Ability was momentarily unable to pull those Soul energies.

Today was the time within the nine years when the Son of God's Seal was at its strongest.

Although he was relatively less affected by the Seal among the Twelve Divine Envoys, he could only exert half of his peak strength.

In order to shake off Han Ping and the others who were pursuing him relentlessly, he had used his stored Soul energy to accelerate without restraint or efficiency.

All just to reach C City quickly and take Chen Moxuan away.

Coupled with the sneak attack he had suffered from Han Ping earlier, the ability he could exert at this moment was less than one-tenth of his peak.

However, he had already witnessed Chen Moxuan's strength through the Black Tower's surveillance.

He had lived for thousands of years and had personally wiped out many remnants of the Martial Dao, so he knew the strength system of Martial Artists like the back of his hand.

Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster in the Spirit Ascension Realm could be easily killed by him with one-tenth of his ability.

If he were at his peak, he wouldn't even put a Martial Saint in his eyes.

Among the Martial Artists he had fought, only those few Martial Dao Profound Saints had been able to pose a threat to him so far.

And after the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi became scarce, these people had all died under their encirclement and suppression.

In his view, there were no longer any Martial Artists in this world capable of threatening an S-Class Transcendent, let alone the fact that he was one of the twelve people at the pinnacle of S-Class Transcendents.

With one-tenth of his ability, it was more than enough to quickly subdue Chen Moxuan and then escape.

But upon seeing that there were still so many undispersed Souls here, Andre instantly changed his mind.

As long as he absorbed all these Soul energies, he would not only be able to fully recover his previous consumption but also gain significant improvements.

By then, he would no longer need to fear the pursuers behind him and could reclaim the dignity he had lost earlier.

As long as he could absorb these Soul energies...

"Why are you competing with me for these Soul energies!"

Andre roared at Chen Moxuan.

He quickly discovered that it was Chen Moxuan who was hindering him from absorbing the Soul energies.

At this moment, a strong wave of Special Ability was surging from Chen Moxuan's body, which made him feel very surprised.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for a Martial Artist to master Special Abilities.

Innate Special Abilities went without saying, while Acquired Special Abilities relied on Soul mutation to generate self-adaptability to the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

And the process of a Martial Artist's Cultivation would stabilize the Soul, suppressing the possibility of such mutations.

However, Andre had no spare time to investigate this at the moment.

Although he had deliberately taken many detours along the way, successfully making it difficult for Han Ping to figure out his specific escape direction for the time being.

But if he continued to dawdle and delay like this, the risk of being tracked down once the other party discovered his trail remained extremely high.

Invisible waves of Qi surged, raging crazily between Chen Moxuan and Andre, subsequently spawning a massive wind pressure so powerful it was chilling.

That wind pressure, like a materialized giant wall, carried an overwhelming force and stood between the two.

Lv Ling had just broken free from the state of Demon Possession, his body still in a state of extreme weakness, and he was tottering.

He crouched down with difficulty, took out his phone from his bosom, and urgently sent a message to his companions through the Madman Society APP.

"He is clearly just a Martial Artist in the Tiangang Realm; how can he have such formidable Mental Energy?!"

Andre's forehead veins were bulging, and the light radiating from his body became increasingly intense and dazzling.

He once again put forth all his strength, increasing the pulling force on the Souls.

Those Soul energies that were originally stalemated began to slowly move toward him.

Chen Moxuan did not speak, similarly raising his own Mental Energy output to the limit, his left hand secretly placed behind his back, guiding wisps of electric arcs to surge forth silently.

The objects they were each pulling were vastly different.

[Reverse Orbit Shadow Trace] reversed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi hidden inside the Souls, while [Fist of Judgment] attracted the Origin power of the Souls.

Under the crazy tug-of-war of these two powerful and distinct gravitational forces, those Transcendent Souls began to tremble violently.

The Soul energy and the Spiritual Qi clusters containing the Special Ability Laws were forcibly separated under the action of this tremendous tearing force.

They flew rapidly toward Chen Moxuan and Andre respectively.

Chen Moxuan was quick-eyed and nimble-handed; while continuing to maintain the suppression of the Spiritual Qi clusters' dissipation with [Reverse Orbit Shadow Trace], he quickly invoked his Spiritual Sense web to gather all the Spiritual Qi clusters together.

Immediately following, he activated [Po Yuan] and struck out with a palm.

A Thunder Dragon covered in golden runes surged violently from his palm, swallowing all the Spiritual Qi clusters in one gulp, completely digesting the Special Ability Laws within.

On the other side, Andre was greedily devouring those Souls like a starving wolf pouncing on food.

As the Soul energy continuously poured in, his aura surged crazily like a bursting flood, and the surrounding space distorted slightly due to this powerful aura.

"Hahahaha, refreshing... Aaaaaah!! — —"

Just as Andre was immersed in the ultimate pleasure of rapidly increasing power, it suddenly exploded inside his body without warning.

The intense pain was like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart, hurting so much that he couldn't help but let out a miserable howl like a pig.

He hadn't experienced this kind of pain for hundreds of years; his whole body trembled violently, and he almost couldn't stand steady.

"This is... Ethereal Spirit Electricity? Isn't this the thing that guy Ian created to torture people?"

Andre resisted the Ethereal Spirit Electricity rampaging throughout his body, panting heavily.

Ethereal Spirit Electricity was a unique current derived from a Special Ability creation that Ian of the [Dream Box] brought into reality from a dream.

This type of current was originally designed specifically for torturing Souls and could significantly increase the possibility of Soul mutation.

When the Soul was relatively fragile, if one could endure the severe pain caused by Ethereal Spirit Electricity, it could, to a certain extent, also serve to exercise the Soul's strength.

When Chen Moxuan was trapped in the mental hospital, relying on the miraculous properties of the Heaven-Swallowing Martial God Physique, he stored a portion of Ethereal Spirit Electricity inside his body.

By using this portion of Ethereal Spirit Electricity as a catalyst, he was able to convert his own lightning-attribute True Qi into Ethereal Spirit Electricity.

However, apart from its amazing efficacy in causing pain and attacking the Soul, the actual lethality of this Ethereal Spirit Electricity was far inferior to ordinary lightning-attribute True Qi.

After breaking through to the Tiangang Realm, Chen Moxuan used Ethereal Spirit Electricity less and less.

Just now, Chen Moxuan had cleverly used Ethereal Spirit Electricity to silently attach to every Transcendent's Soul.

The amount of electricity attached to a single Soul was not much, making it difficult to detect during the intense contention between the two sides.

But after absorbing all those Souls into his body, the accumulated electricity reached a considerable value.

It was enough for Chen Moxuan to detonate it remotely and give Andre a hard hit.

"It seems this thing was created by your companion?"

"It's quite useful."

Hearing Andre's question, Chen Moxuan carelessly raised his fingertip, upon which a wisp of electric arc flickered.

This action was undoubtedly declaring to Andre that the Ethereal Spirit Electricity raging inside his body at this moment was his own masterpiece.
