Chapter 215: Joining the Battle
After hearing Chen Bo's words, Bai Mo always felt there was something off with the reasoning. Too many things seemed like a huge coincidence, yet he couldn't pinpoint the exact flaw.
What was even more crucial was that his intuition told him he should personally fight Sarcasky. He had a premonition that participating in this battle would change him significantly.
Given his status, even a summons from the military could have been declined. However, having always benefited immensely from these inexplicable feelings, he ultimately decided to alter his plans and personally go to the front lines.
Driven by hatred, the battle grew white-hot, with more and more individuals revealing their trump cards and launching even fiercer assaults on Sarcasky.
"Very well, you mere insects are finally worthy of me revealing more of my strength." Watching its own manifested form, whose recovery speed was gradually failing to keep up with the rate of destruction, it uttered words that stunned ninety-nine percent of the onlookers.
A protective energy field appeared around Sarcasky. Some ability users with psychic perception or those who had learned related Spirit Arts quickly discovered that their previously unimpeded senses were now blocked by the appearance of the pale green energy field.
"He actually has a Life Field too, and can even manifest it externally! Could it be that the key to breaking through to the next level is finding a way to extend one's Life Field outside the body?!" All those present were leading figures in their respective fields, and many conceived of this idea after comparing their own abilities with the enemy's.
"If it's the same Life Field manifestation, why did I generate Primal Matter?" Bai Mo, witnessing this scene, pondered this very question.
The Life Field appeared about twenty centimeters from its body surface. And with the appearance of this field, its control over its manifested form once again greatly increased. Its regeneration speed once more surpassed the collective destructive power, quickly restoring it to over a hundred meters in height, and it continued to expand, showing a strong tendency to exceed its original size.
Moreover, all attacks from others, even those that broke through layer upon layer of obstacles, were halted dead in their tracks by the Life Field.
"It was actually still hiding its strength..." Chris Ding, who had enjoyed smooth sailing her entire career, rising to prominence with the guidance of the soul within her bracelet, began to feel disheartened facing this unfathomable enemy.
"Just a little more." Hua Taishan, however, showed not the slightest hint of an old man. From start to finish, he was relentlessly attacking Sarcasky's manifested form, completely disregardful that his own White Tiger manifested form was still just an illusion and couldn't truly offer him protection.
Covered in small wounds, he rediscovered his true self as a martial arts fanatic in the fierce battle, completely engrossed in the fight. Even as the enemy grew stronger again, his will remained unshaken.
Let him be strong, it's nothing more than a fight!
Equally fervent was Yamamoto from Yamato. In leading Yamato's defense against the Sea Clan invading from all sides, he had forged his illustrious reputation with a single man and a single blade.
In his battle against Sarcasky, every swing of his blade conjured a fire dragon that devoured all, and he alone suppressed the regeneration on one flank of the enemy's massive manifested form.
Yet, even so, Sarcasky's renewed surge in power quickly brought new casualties to the allied forces, especially among the ability users who had newly joined the fray out of hatred, their combat strength still considerably lagging behind those who initially participated in the siege.
Time ticked by, second by second. Almost every ten seconds, someone participating in the siege fell to Sarcasky's hand. Yet, the number of ability users desperate to personally kill it never diminished; more and more individuals, disregarding Bai Mo's initial "admonition," arrived at the center of the battlefield through various means.
An hour later, Bai Mo, descending directly from a military jet with an armful of swords, hovering above everyone, looked down upon the scene: Sarcasky, whose manifested form now approached three hundred meters in height, was surrounded by ability users swarming it like ants.
On the surface of the Arctic Ocean, those fighting with utter disregard for their lives constantly fell into the sea. Some of them quickly resurfaced, shaking off the water to continue the battle, while others slowly sank, forever becoming part of the Arctic Ocean.
When he was still about a thousand meters above Sarcasky, Bai Mo switched several of the special longswords in his hand to psychokinetic control, making them spin rapidly to create the effect of a sword tornado.
"What is that?" Everyone noticed the tornado descending from the sky, intermittently reflecting metallic light.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss." The sword tornado immediately bit a hole into the surface of the manifested form, drilling rapidly inward with almost unstoppable momentum.
But as it delved deeper, and the density of the unknown substance increased, the speed of tunnel excavation gradually slowed. Even more dangerously, the initial entry point had already begun to heal rapidly...
Either don't do it, or do it absolutely.
Having observed the battle for a long time, Bai Mo naturally wouldn't make the rookie mistake of being surrounded inside an enemy capable of insane regeneration. His avatars appeared one by one behind him, even the black-robed avatar that had previously been slacking off on the battlefield now positioned behind him. RAn/0bE\S
Each avatar controlled a sword, sweeping back and forth to prevent any regeneration of the manifested form, ensuring the main body, which was controlling the drill, wouldn't get trapped inside.
Simultaneously, large quantities of Spirit energy missiles surged from his body, expanding the tunnel he had excavated.
Although their density wasn't as great as the previous Spirit energy storm, the attack position of every single missile was calculated, ensuring absolutely no waste.
To deal with a landmark-level monster like this, one had to use attacks on a map-wide scale. Since he had decided to join the fight, he would do everything in his power.
Aside from the portions of Primal Matter already used for establishing the Spirit energy network, which were truly inconvenient to withdraw from the runes, Bai Mo brought all his remaining Primal Matter for this battle, maximizing his abilities.
In essence, both had already surpassed the Unmelting Realm. The only difference was that Sarcasky walked the path of external expansion of its Life Field, infecting external matter with its will, while Bai Mo walked the path of internal collapse of his Life Field, thereby creating his "True Self."
"I didn't expect to be deceived by you." Sarcasky immediately recognized these Spirit energy avatars, realizing it had been fooled before and that the other party hadn't died at all.
"Actually, I originally wasn't planning on coming." Bai Mo had no intention of explaining his reasons to the enemy.
The breakthrough experiment back then could indeed be considered a success, but the aborted experiment had genuinely consumed nearly half of his Life Field strength. For the past half-year, he had actually been in a slow recovery phase, and even now, he had only returned to about eighty percent of his original level. This was one reason he had been reluctant to act.
Secondly, nearly a third of his Primal Matter had already been inscribed as runes onto the Spirit energy network, preventing him from unleashing his full power elsewhere.
However, guided by his premonition, he ultimately came here and truly participated in the battle to besiege Sarcasky.
