Chapter 1282 - 1142: The Last Capsule

Chapter 1282: Chapter 1142: The Last Capsule

Babus was fleeing at a high speed, while carefully analyzing how to escape the current predicament.

He thought that his analysis of the caster who delivered that earth-shaking blow was correct.

Otherwise, the opponent wouldn’t have delayed for so long and only struck with a desperate blow when at a disadvantage.

One must admit, his intelligence capacity might be a bit lacking, but his logical reasoning skills were indeed above standard.

However, such a conclusion didn’t allow him to feel at ease.

Since the opponent was willing to go all out for the first strike, it was possible they’d do so for a second — he’s seen many people who’ve given up everything.

So he couldn’t stop and fight now; if the opponent’s reinforcements arrived, he... might indeed lose.

Feeling the small figure relentlessly chasing and repeatedly blocking him with superior body technique, he couldn’t help but sigh internally.

Since the distance from the base was already thousands of kilometers, he might as well... fly into space.

Flying to a relatively high place, he would still be detected and might face hot weapon attacks from the base.

However, at this point, he couldn’t care about that — those weapons couldn’t break through his defense anyway, just consume a bit of inner breath.

Of course, being short on inner breath was not favorable for future space drifting, but did he have a choice?

Seeing Babus suddenly accelerate, shooting straight into the sky, the Nutrient Injection and Paranoid following closely behind were both startled.

Their surprise was just a subconscious reaction; his choice did not surprise them.

"Has it finally started?" The Nutrient Injection sighed softly, using Instant Flash to chase into the sky.

"Can he escape?" Paranoid sneered, also pursuing.

However, in a sky pursuit, the difficulty was greater; the fleeing side could escape in any direction.

This was also why the Supreme were easy to defeat but hard to kill; three-dimensional space offered too many choices.

After a while of pursuit, realizing the target was truly slippery, Nutrient Injection gritted his teeth and sent a divine sense toward Paranoid.

"If you have spiritual armor, take it out quickly."

Paranoid didn’t mind the commanding tone of the message; instead, his spirit lifted.

"I’ve already put it on, are you going to use a big move?"

By now, he had accepted the reality that the opponent was above the Supreme and was naturally looking forward to related tactics.

The Nutrient Injection pursed his lips, took out a capsule, and filled with reluctance, he steeled his resolve and swallowed it.

In the next moment, he slapped his waist, taking out a palm-sized, antique Copper Bell.

It was the "Soul Suppressing Bell" that had appeared at the auction before.

He crushed the capsule in his mouth and sent a divine sense to Paranoid, "Land!"

The three had already pursued to hundreds of kilometers above the planet’s surface.

After receiving the message, Paranoid used Instant Flash twice in a row, landing on the ground, and curiously watched the sky.

Then, the Nutrient Injection threw the Copper Bell in his hand, "Go~"

The Copper Bell flew out seven or eight hundred meters, rapidly expanding in size, growing to two to three meters tall in the blink of an eye.

"That’s as big as it gets," the Nutrient Injection muttered to himself, then raised his hand.

A Flaming Arrow shot from his hand, striking the Soul Suppressing Bell in the air dead on.

The next moment, a dull "Duang" sound echoed in the sky.

The bell’s sound was ancient and profound, forming a substantial sound wave, rippling out like water, lingering without end.

Paranoid, standing on the ground, watched the scene curiously.

When the bell sounded, he just felt a sharp jolt in his mind, as if hit by a massive hammer.

For a moment, he had an excruciating headache, his mind went blank, and he seemed to see a series of golden stars spinning around.

He let out a muffled groan, gritting his teeth, holding his head, and squatting down on the ground.

At that moment, his mind was filled with just one thought: I clearly had my armor on!

The next moment, the figure beside Paranoid flashed, revealing that the Nutrient Injection had also landed.

His face was pale, his figure fluctuating in size, twisting in the air, even his features constantly changing.

Obviously, this strike had also dealt him significant damage, especially being quite close to the Soul Suppressing Bell.

Fortunately, he had made ample preparations, and the damage was within endurance.

The Nutrient Injection was well aware that his use of the Soul Suppressing Bell was still in the most elementary stage — barely usable.

But that was already quite good; at least he could enlarge the Soul Suppressing Bell and initially complete a hybrid attack of divine soul and sound.

Compared to him, some top-level Awakened had Dharma Artifacts from the Divine Text System in hand but couldn’t wield them.

Actually, driving a Dharma Artifact, a crucial point is to have "Spiritual Qi" from the Divine Text System to guide it.

The inner breath from the Awakened System couldn’t drive most of the Dharma Artifacts.

However, some Dharma Artifacts, if they used "Spiritual Qi" as a primer, could accommodate some inner breath too.

Except the consumption of inner breath was significantly higher than Spiritual Qi and might negatively affect the artifact.

These were conclusions drawn by the Nutrient Injection himself, especially the latter; he had experimented many times.

For this, he used to frequently collect the spiritual energy from the Spirit Gathering Array, secretly taking it out for experiments.

Unfortunately, spiritual energy isn’t very easy to store, and he had to be cautious about getting discovered, making this experimenting... quite a struggle.

The easiest spiritual energy to carry around was still the millennium stone milk capsules distributed by Qu Jianlei.

However, not many were handed out, and the Nutrient Injection didn’t manage to get in on the opportunity.

The only two he had on hand were covertly extorted from Qinghu.

—Yes, he was the supreme backing behind Qinghu, and also the supporter of the sixth miss of the Haiyin Clan, Rhine.

Qinghu was, of course, reluctant to give him the capsules, but he promised on his chest to repay them double in the future, obtaining two capsules this way.

One of them had already been used for experiments; what he swallowed just a moment ago was the last one in hand.

The Nutrient Injection was well aware that the Soul Suppressing Bell’s function wasn’t just that, and it probably wouldn’t harm him.

However... there was no choice! He could only use the dharma artifact to this extent.

Anyway, this time, he really put in a lot, but now it seems, the outcome is rather decent.

At least Babus was rendered motionless in the air, and is currently plummeting to the ground at an incredible speed.

The Nutrient Injection perceived again thousands of kilometers away, and couldn’t help but twitch his mouth corner.

The power of this strike is indeed substantial; a few captives with lower cultivation levels were already knocked about.

The strike from the artifact wasn’t even the complete version, yet the effect was terrifyingly powerful!

However, the Nutrient Injection also knew it was because he hadn’t fully mastered the Soul Suppressing Tower.

Otherwise, the artifact could perhaps control the attack range or even emit directed attacks, not affecting so many people.

As the bell’s sound subsided, the Nutrient Injection raised his hand, directly summoning back the Bronze Small Tower from hundreds of kilometers away.

—The boss’s strike just now, more stylish when retrieving the artifact than I am, the difference really exists!

He was pondering, when the Paranoid shook his head, stood up from the ground.

His face was a bit pale, but he managed to give a thumbs up, "The artifact is stylish, but... can’t it distinguish between friend and foe?"

The Nutrient Injection replied sheepishly, "I’m still waiting... for the boss’s guidance, aren’t I?"

This time, calling him boss was a bit forced — after all, his cultivation level had already been exposed.

Ultimately, the Nutrient Injection continued with the previous form of address.

As they were speaking, they saw a small black dot in the sky quickly grow larger, diving towards the ground.

Soon after, a dull sound was heard, followed by smoke rising, and the entire ground shook twice.

The two exchanged a glance and instantly disappeared.

The spot where Babus fell was more than five hundred kilometers away from them, but it was just a matter of two Instant Flashes.

They arrived at the smoke-filled area, discovering a pit over ten meters deep had appeared on the ground.

Keep in mind, this was permafrost, with ice hardness comparable to rock, and to create such a large pit shows the energy was significant.

Nonetheless, neither of them relaxed their vigilance, knowing well that such an impact couldn’t possibly harm the opponent.

In the next moment, a figure, along with dust, leapt out from the pit, "An ambush? How despicable!"

Babus’s outer garment was in tatters, hanging on him in pieces.

However, the small shawl close to the body was still snugly fitted.

Besides that, he still had shorts, seemingly of those high-tech materials.

Upon seeing him leap out, the Paranoid, without thinking, raised his hand and sent out three Golden Arrows.

He was actually more skilled in Golden Wheel Slash, which also had great power.

However, the Paranoid knew well that the Golden Wheel couldn’t break through the opponent’s defense, but there was a slight chance with the Golden Arrows.

Babus neither dodged nor evaded, facing the Golden Arrows head-on, one hitting his chest.

In fact, he was still a bit dizzy, the impact from the Soul Suppressing Bell hadn’t completely dissipated yet.

And although the impact with the ground hadn’t harmed him, the massive kinetic energy caused a bodily shock, making him somewhat uncomfortable.

However, regrettably, the Golden Arrows really didn’t pierce through, merely pushing his body thirty or so meters.

To be able to push a supreme being that far, it must be admitted, the Paranoid tried his best,

Yet, frustratingly, the Golden Arrows hit the shawl, which was dingy and unremarkable, yet exceptionally tough.

The Paranoid gasped, "This is... a Divine Text Treasure?"

Not breaking through the opponent’s defense wasn’t the issue, just a lack of strength, but even failing to tear the shawl showed it wasn’t an ordinary garment.

Which means, amongst the supreme beings... each really has something special about them.

The dizzy Babus, however, was quite at ease, "Heh, just a supreme being."

His body felt uncomfortable now, but he still made a precise judgment, Gold Attribute attacks were just of advanced power!

So this battle was still on, he took a deep breath, "Giant Transformation..."

In a blink of an eye, his body rapidly inflated, growing from about one meter six to more than two meters.

However, at that moment, the Nutrient Injection’s attack also arrived, "Extreme Flame Fire Dragon Shield~"
