Chapter 141 - 131: Finally, an Opponent Who Can Force Me to Use Super Gigantification, Take My Staff!

Chapter 141: Chapter 131: Finally, an Opponent Who Can Force Me to Use Super Gigantification, Take My Staff!

With that thought, Qiao Chiyuan suddenly manifested a streak of golden light just as Ji Zhixing leaped up again, sending it slashing straight toward him.

The golden light resembled a sharp blade. It tore through the air with a piercing whistle at an astonishing speed, arriving behind Ji Zhixing in the blink of an eye.

"He’s actually attacking me?" Ji Zhixing thought.

He was just reaching out to grab a chunk of Seven-Colored Spirit Honey when a sudden, intense sense of danger washed over him from behind. Already prepared, he violently twisted his body in midair. Simultaneously, the Nine-Tiered Tide Rod materialized from his genetic furnace, spinning rapidly in front of him.

"Vortex!"

The spinning rod churned the surrounding air into a swirling cyclone. The golden light slashed into the cyclone, only to be torn apart and shredded layer by layer by the rotational force, dissipating into specks of golden light.

"He actually blocked it?" Qiao Chiyuan thought in surprise. He stared blankly for a moment, his gaze landing on the Nine-Tiered Tide Rod in Ji Zhixing’s hands as a flicker of realization flashed through his eyes.

"A Tier-Two, Five-Star Staff Technique? Is that an inherent ability of his Genetic Equipment?"

He could sense that the power behind Ji Zhixing’s strike was far from weak. The rotational force was incredibly precise, bolstered by some sort of willpower—it wasn’t something that could be executed casually. However, he wasn’t concerned. He also possessed Tier-Two, Five-Star Genetic Equipment and could unleash general genetic skills no weaker than Ji Zhixing’s.

THUD!

Ji Zhixing landed, his feet planting firmly in the soil of the flower sea, and stared coldly at Qiao Chiyuan. "I wasn’t planning on bothering with you, but since you don’t know what’s good for you, get the hell out of here!"

With that, he took a deep breath, his chest expanding.

"Gigantification!"

With a single thought, his body rapidly shot upward. His bones let out a series of CRACKs as his muscles bulged and expanded. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a 2.7-meter-tall giant.

The Nine-Tiered Tide Rod in his hand grew in tandem, surging from just over two meters to three and a half meters long. Thick as a bowl, it exuded a heavy, oppressive presence. Grayish-white petrified armor covered his entire body, with Five-Colored Spiritual Light flowing across its surface. He looked like an ancient warlord stepping straight out of a bygone era.

"Big words," Qiao Chiyuan sneered, not intimidated in the slightest by the transformation. Although he was somewhat surprised that Ji Zhixing had blocked his sneak attack, he still didn’t consider the guy a worthy opponent. "You dare act so brazen in front of me with just a paltry Gigantification ability? It seems you’ve never fought a true genius!"

He extended his right hand, and a Golden Halberd materialized from his genetic furnace, settling into his grip. The halberd was golden throughout, its blades razor-sharp and radiating a fierce aura. This was his Tier-Two, Five-Star Genetic Equipment, the Halberd of Dawn, which came with the Tier-Two, Five-Star Dawn Halberd Technique.

"Take my strike!" Ji Zhixing didn’t waste his breath. Gripping the rod with both hands, he strode forward. The 3.5-meter-long Nine-Tiered Tide Rod swept viciously toward Qiao Chiyuan with a howling gale.

"Tidal Surge!"

As the long rod swept horizontally, the roaring sound of cascading tides echoed across the flower sea, startling the surrounding Seven-Color Spirit Bees into scattering in all directions.

"Dawn’s First Light!" Qiao Chiyuan snorted coldly, holding nothing back. Wielding the Golden Halberd with both hands, he thrust it upward, executing the first stance of the Dawn Halberd Technique.

BOOM!

The golden light of the halberd collided with the pale blue afterimages of the rod. A deafening boom erupted as sparks flew and shockwaves rolled outward.

The very next moment, Qiao Chiyuan felt a tremendous force transmit through the Golden Halberd, jarring his arms until they went numb and forcing him to stagger three steps backward.

"What kind of strength is this?" Qiao Chiyuan thought in horror, disbelief plastered across his face.

He had fused with the Tier-Four Morning Star-grade Dawn Fury Chicken gene. While physical strength wasn’t his primary advantage, it was absolutely not weak. Within the genius class of Feng City University, his strength ranked in the top ten at the very least. Yet now, he had actually been forced back three steps by a single strike from an elite class student of Yu City University?

"Again!" Ji Zhixing yelled, his spirit soaring.

Rock-Solid Body, Gigantification, Innate Super Strength... Stacking these three abilities produced truly staggering power. And right now, he hadn’t even activated his Super Gigantification. With an explosive roar, Ji Zhixing swung his rod and smashed it toward Qiao Chiyuan once more.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

He brought the rod down again and again. In a short span of time, he unleashed five or six strikes. Each blow carried earth-shattering weight and an unstoppable momentum. Facing Ji Zhixing’s barrage, Qiao Chiyuan dodged whenever possible, only choosing to take the attacks head-on when evasion was impossible. But with every block, the impact forced him backward. His arms grew increasingly numb, and the webbing between his thumbs and forefingers throbbed with pain.

"Stop!"

After taking a few more hits, Qiao Chiyuan took a deep breath, knowing he couldn’t keep this up. They were currently in the center of the flower sea. Swarms of Seven-Color Spirit Bees continuously flew in from all directions, blotting out the sky in dense, overwhelming numbers. He was constantly expending his genetic origin power to slaughter the bees, all while splitting his focus to defend against Ji Zhixing’s attacks. At this rate, his origin power would be depleted in no time.

"If we keep fighting like this, our genetic origin power will just run dry, and neither of us will get this Seven-Colored Spirit Honey!" Qiao Chiyuan gritted his teeth, shouting at Ji Zhixing. "I’m willing to compromise! We can split the Seven-Colored Spirit Honey evenly!"

"Evenly?" Ji Zhixing sneered, his movements never halting. "What right do you have to split anything with me?"

Had it been earlier, he wouldn’t have minded splitting the loot. But the man had already launched a lethal sneak attack, only offering to share after realizing he was outmatched. This was nothing short of an insult.

"You—!" Qiao Chiyuan’s face darkened, a flash of fury crossing his eyes.

But Ji Zhixing ignored him completely. Stepping forward once again, he swung the Nine-Tiered Tide Rod, smashing it down on his opponent blow after relentless blow.
