Chapter 656 - 653: Draining Your Durability
"Hehe."
Bai Pu thought to himself, "I don’t believe you at all."
Bai Pu didn’t really know whether Prince Gaton’s energy consumption was truly low.
But as an enemy, it was hard to believe that Prince Gaton would say anything for Bai Pu’s benefit.
Not all of Prince Gaton’s words should be taken as lies; Bai Pu could try to uncover hidden information within his words.
For a clever lie comprises nine truths wrapped around one falsehood.
For instance, Prince Gaton saying that the energy consumption of the Hundred Weapons Dao Body is low—this might be true.
But can it really endure indefinitely, no matter how many people gang up on it?
That statement deserves a question mark.
Perhaps the Hundred Weapons Dao Body consumes a lot in other aspects, like Spiritual Power, Physical Ability, Heart Power, etc.?
However, Bai Pu did not intend to use delay tactics; instead, he wanted to confront head-on and rightfully defeat this Prince of the Sea.
The reason was simple: Bai Pu was already one of the top peak Earth Awakened, while Prince Gaton ranked only No. 47 among the "Prince of the Sea" of the Sea Race.
If he couldn’t even defeat a Tier One Awakened from the Sea Race, ranked 47, how could he lead the Huaxia Battle Group to carve out a survival space for Earth?
In a series of attacks and defenses, Bai Pu continuously used the Composite Mystical Arts "Viewing the Sea" to observe the energy wave frequency of Prince Gaton.
Suddenly, Bai Pu blocked Prince Gaton’s arm with a spear, took a step forward, and thrust at Prince Gaton’s left chest.
Prince Gaton’s body paused slightly, then kicked back at Bai Pu’s ribs with a reflexive movement, manifesting a golden great axe that cleaved out a half-moon-shaped Qi Force, blasting Bai Pu’s blue-gold form several feet away.
Bai Pu withstood this strike, with the Mountain and Sea Shield consuming about 70 points of Professional Energy.
However, seeing a wisp of blood on the tip of the Doomsday Blade spear, the corner of Bai Pu’s mouth finally curled into a smile:
"You’re wounded."
Prince Gaton glanced down at his left chest, indeed revealing a slight graze, with a drop of blood oozing out.
"What’s this? Just a scratch. To deplete my Life Value, you’d need at least two thousand more of the same attacks, not counting my life recovery speed! The question is, can you withstand it?"
Prince Gaton’s words were firm.
"No."
Bai Pu suddenly said, "It’s not about depleting your Life Value, but depleting your Durability."
Prince Gaton’s expression slightly changed.
Bai Pu had already voiced his judgment: "I understand now. The Hundred Weapons Dao Body does indeed consume less Professional Energy, but on the other hand, the top-grade weapons you’ve fused into your body themselves have ’Durability’!
"Every collision is a wear.
"When the Durability reaches zero, your Hundred Weapons Dao Body will break."
As Bai Pu spoke, he raised his purple short spear.
"Coincidentally, my King-level Purple Weapon will additionally enhance Attack Strength, and the higher the Attack Strength, the faster your Hundred Weapons Dao Body’s Durability depletes!
"I don’t need to exhaust the Durability of all your fused weapons. As long as I focus on one point and exhaust the Durability of the weapon fused in that body part, it’s enough."
While speaking, Bai Pu had already thrown out a deep black token.
[Celestial Prison Order: Designate a target to be confined in the Celestial Prison. The Celestial Prison covers an area of 150 meters around the user. The target cannot leave the Celestial Prison area within 24 hours.]
The black token emitted a black light in the air, and an invisible chain, like a Spirit Snake, directly pounced on Prince Gaton.
In an instant, Prince Gaton received a prompt from Wuya’s Will:
[You are under the influence of an unknown artifact, unable to move beyond 150 meters from the item’s user within 24 hours.]
"This is the official treasure, a National Destiny-level Artifact."
Bai Pu took a deep breath, "Well then, Prince Gaton, are you prepared to leave your life behind here?"
At this moment, Prince Gaton’s face was no longer as confident as before, and had turned somewhat grim.
He sinisterly said, "That depends on whether you have the capability!"
The two peak fighters charged forward again, clashing at the pinnacle of the world.
Clang clang clang clang!
The continuous metallic clangs echoed as Bai Pu’s Doomsday Blade spear tip, like a shadow, enveloped Prince Gaton’s entire body, aiming at various vital points.
Prince Gaton gave a cold smile: You’ve already shown your hand targeting my weakness, yet still use so many flashy moves? I won’t let you succeed!
Faced with Bai Pu’s barrage of spear shadows, Prince Gaton focused all his mind on protecting his left chest.
The weapon fused into his left chest was a pair of Dark Gold Boxing Gloves, whose Durability had been heavily worn down by Bai Pu’s repeated attacks.
But still...
Clang clang!
Bai Pu’s Wind-Seeking Two Spears didn’t hit Prince Gedun’s left chest but his right rib area instead.
A bruise formed on Prince Gaton’s right rib.
"I never said the spot I’d focus my attack on had to be your left chest."
Bai Pu smiled slightly, and once again, a storm of spear shadows filled the air.
This time, Prince Gaton had to split his focus to protect both his left chest and right rib, but having suffered once, he dared not relax in other areas either, and his concentration was naturally divided.
Clang.
Another metallic clang sounded as Bai Pu’s spear again pierced Prince Gaton’s left chest!
Prince Gaton finally felt the threat. At this point, the shadow of the gloves fused into his left chest was already covered with fine cracks.
It’s simply that Bai Pu’s Doomsday Blade Short Spear, as a King-level Purple Weapon, augmented Bai Pu’s Attack Strength, making it sufficient to rival an Enhanced Lord.
This pure and sharp Qi Force produced astonishing wear on the Hundred Weapons Dao Body’s weapon Durability, even if a different Prince of the Sea, stronger than Bai Pu, were to come, without a King-level Purple Weapon, it might not achieve this result.
In other words, Prince Gedun’s initial nonchalance and verbal offensive were not arrogance and bad humor, but recognition of his own predicament and an attempt to break the stalemate.
Bai Pu grew increasingly confident, unleashing his full might, with each spear thrust faster than the last! This time, it was Prince Gaton who retreated continually.
"Take this!"
Bai Pu suddenly shouted, thrusting his short spear deeply into Prince Gaton’s left chest!
The Dark Gold Boxing Gloves fused into Prince Gaton’s left chest, already covered with fine cracks, gave a light snap and shattered into countless light points!
Bai Pu exhaled, realizing that he had broken through what seemed like the impeccable defense of Prince Gaton’s Hundred Weapons Dao Body, leaving his left chest unprotected by the Dao Body.
However, at the moment the Dark Gold Boxing Gloves shattered, a fierce aura burst forth from the broken gloves!
A golden torrent, transformed into a sharp cone-shaped Qi Force, suddenly blasted toward Bai Pu.
"With my broken edge, annihilate the enemy’s life!"
Prince Gaton’s low roar carried a hint of satisfaction, "You think you shattered my Hundred Weapons Dao Body? Wrong, it was I who actively detonated the impaired weapon here, temporarily maximizing my Attack Strength!"
