126: Chapter 126 Supernova Explosion
Hengyuan Force was directly erased the moment it made contact with Kong Ji's palm.
Along with that lethal annihilation effect, it returned to the Void Realm.
The same was true for his Physical Body strength.
A punch capable of shattering mountain ranges, the moment it touched Kong Ji's palm, felt like striking into the Void Realm.
There was none of the reaction expected from a collision of forces.
Nothing happened.
Chen Mo instantly retreated, widening the distance.
Hengyuan Force circulated within his body, repairing the minor damage on his wrist that had been eroded by the bizarre power.
He stared at Kong Ji in front of him.
Kong Ji simply stood there, his right hand still maintaining the posture from when he had raised it.
Then he lowered it slowly, the movement as light as brushing away a wisp of smoke.
His expression showed no change.
Those pitch-black eyes looked at him indifferently, as if staring at a stone unworthy of notice.
It was as if Chen Mo's punch just now was so painless and insignificant to him that it wasn't even worth remembering.
Chen Mo knew clearly in his heart.
This was the strongest opponent he had ever encountered.
Various countermeasures flashed rapidly through his mind.
Hengyuan Force was ineffective, the annihilation effect was erased, and the physical attacks of his Physical Body were completely useless.
As for the essence of the opponent's ability—that bizarre power that reduced everything to the Void Realm—he hadn't found any entry point to break it.
Chen Mo's thoughts raced at lightning speed.
But Kong Ji did not give Chen Mo time to continue thinking.
A bizarre power surged from his body, instantly enveloping the entire space.
That power was formless and colorless; it could not be seen with the eyes or touched with the hands.
Wherever it passed, this piece of the Void Realm was turning into his Domain.
Chen Mo's Hengyuan Force was directly suppressed.
Golden flames struggled on the surface of his body, as if choked by an invisible hand, unable to release even a sliver of light.
Hengyuan Force was still burning inside him, but all its light could not penetrate the shroud of this power, as if completely swallowed by a layer of invisible Void Realm.
After the shrouding was complete, Kong Ji moved.
Without any warning, his figure instantly appeared in front of Chen Mo.
That bizarre power condensed on his hand and erupted the moment it neared Chen Mo.
Chen Mo only reacted the moment he was hit.
He narrowly avoided a direct hit.
But his waist was still grazed by this power.
There was no pain.
Chen Mo looked down.
His right waist, from the lower edge of his ribs to above his hip bone—a large chunk of his entire right abdominal cavity—had vanished.
The muscles, bones, and internal organs in that area, along with his Hengyuan Force, had been reduced to the Void Realm the moment they made contact.
The Hengyuan Force within Chen Mo surged frantically toward the wound to attempt repair, but on that cross-section...
...remained an extremely thin layer of bizarre power. Whenever Hengyuan Force touched it, it was erased, and repair could not begin at all.
Only then did Chen Mo realize that even his Mental Power was being suppressed.
Kong Ji's bizarre power not only eroded matter and energy but was also eroding his Mental Perception.
It was too terrifying.
Moreover, this bizarre power completely restrained him.
Energy was erased, Physical Body strength struck into the Void Realm, Mental Perception was suppressed, and regeneration abilities were blocked.
The three pillars of the Source Power System—Physical Body, energy, and Mental Power—were all specifically suppressed when facing Kong Ji's Xuan Shen System.
Chen Mo realized one thing.
Facing this opponent, he had no other options left.
And Kong Ji's attacks kept coming one after another.
His figure flickered constantly, and every strike carried that power which reduced everything to the Void Realm.
Chen Mo could only keep dodging. Although his perception was suppressed to the limit, his remaining Physical Body instincts and sense of crisis supported him in dodging again and again.
But prolonged defense inevitably leads to failure.
Kong Ji's power grazed his right shoulder, and the entire shoulder blade along with his upper arm returned to the Void Realm.
It grazed his left leg, and everything below the knee vanished into thin air.
It grazed his chest cavity, and his ribs were directly exposed to the Void Realm.
Chen Mo was being eaten away bit by bit.
He was forced into a true desperate situation.
He had absolutely no ability to counterattack.
But Chen Mo did not fall into despair.
In all the gaps between his dodges, he was constantly trying.
Hengyuan Force explosion, ineffective.
Teleportation, unable to penetrate the barrier of that power.
Physical attacks from his body all returned to the Void Realm.
Every moment, a new attempt was declared a failure; every moment, a new body part was reduced to nothingness.
Just at the moment his body was about to be completely erased.
Chen Mo smiled.
The last power within his body erupted violently.
He condensed his remaining Mental Energy into an extremely thin needle and ruthlessly stabbed it into Kong Ji's consciousness.
Kong Ji's movements froze for an instant.
Extremely short.
But it was enough.
The Hengyuan Force within his body collapsed completely in this instant.
Those dense energies, which he had compressed to the limit, lost Chen Mo's restraint and violently contracted toward a central point at the same moment.
Like a star reaching the end of its life, gravitational collapse pressed all matter toward the core, and then, when the critical point arrived...
[Supernova Explosion · Source]
Hengyuan Force collapsed to the bottom and then instantly erupted in reverse.
Ultimate light.
Ultimate heat.
Ultimate impact force.
Three ultimate forces erupted simultaneously throughout the entire Void Realm.
The power on Kong Ji's body that reduced everything to the Void Realm could no longer withstand the three ultimate, synchronized impacts.
It was burst open.
Like an abyss filled with an entire ocean, like a Void Realm stuffed with a Universe.
His body was instantly turned to ashes by a high temperature comparable to the core of a sun.
A ripple finally appeared in the blackness of Kong Ji's eyes.
It was not fear or pain.
Only a little calm surprise.
He looked at Chen Mo indifferently.
Then he dissipated.
Chen Mo's consciousness also disappeared at the same moment.
The match ended.
[Source Power System, Chen Mo, defeated.]
In the Trial Tower space.
Chen Mo's mental form re-condensed.
He stood quietly amidst the endless star gates, remaining silent for a long time.
Defeated.
But he felt no resentment.
The final strike was a mutual destruction; it was the only solution to seek victory in defeat.
Kong Ji died.
That strike exceeded the tolerance limit of his Void Realm power.
But it was he himself who was forced into a desperate situation first; there was no chance of winning in a normal fight.
Kong Ji's Xuan Shen System.
Kong Ji.
Chen Mo carved this name into his heart.
This battle made him see clearly the shortcomings of the Source Power System in combat.
When facing high-tier power, neither the purity of energy nor the Physical Body was enough.
One needed to reach the limit or find a way to restrain it.
Chen Mo took a deep breath.
Then he looked up at the ranking list.
His ranking had reached 101st place.
But his gaze had already moved past this number, upward.
The 100th place was a watershed.
Starting from there, every opponent would be an existence on another level.
Kong Ji had already proven this.
And there were still ninety-nine above.
