Although elemental creatures were made up of rock, the difference between them and humans was that they had no muscles.
Its entire body was made of rock, which was equivalent to its skeleton.
But it also had joints!
Before, the Earth Tremor's body had always been in a state of flow. Whether it was its joints or its body, they were all in a state of flow. Its torso was full of gaps, and its body was supported by the unique power of elemental creatures.
Therefore, although the Earth Tremor's absolute speed far exceeded that of ordinary people, whether it was Chen Guang or Xin Qin, they could more or less suppress it in speed. Compared to its kind, the Earth Ripper, the Tremor was much more cumbersome. Its body was sometimes hard and sometimes soft, but even at its toughest, it could not be compared to the Earth Ripper.
The Earth Ripper was completely different from its kind. The dark blue rock that made up its body was extremely hard.
The experience with the Qilin Arm told Chen Guang that the hardness of its body was definitely far above ordinary steel, and it also had a certain degree of flexibility. It was simply perfect.
But the flexibility of its rock body was not enough to support its intense and flexible movements, so its joints must be flexible.
In the beginning, Chen Guang didn't notice it, but every time the Terra Ripper attacked, there would be a strange buzzing sound coming from its joints. Initially, he didn't pay much attention to it, but he gradually shifted his attention to it.
After enduring countless slashes, Chen Guang's gaze was fixed on the joints of the Terra Ripper. After paying a painful price, Chen Guang finally confirmed his judgment. Although the other parts of the Terra Ripper's body were tough, its joints weren't indestructible. On the contrary, they felt like a gel that would compress, twist, and wrinkle along with its movements. It was similar to a human's joints, but there were also some differences.
Human joints usually required tendons, bones, muscles, and other components to work together to achieve the purpose of movement.
But the Earth Ripper's torso and limbs were made of a whole rock substance, without the traction of tendons, bones, and muscles. It was also not like the Tremor, whose whole body was in a fluid state under the blessing of a mysterious power.
The Earth Ripper might have similar elemental power, but the main effect was certainly different from the Tremor. It was not regeneration, but strengthening its body.
At the same time, this also meant that almost all of its kinetic energy had to be supplied by its joints for every movement.
Considering its weight and strength, the pressure on the colloid at its joints was at least several tons.
Once he realized this problem, Chen Guang focused more of his attention on the Earth Ripper's joints. After a few observations, he made a new discovery.
When it was preparing for a violent movement, its joints would go through a process of storing energy. The buzzing sound was produced when it was storing energy.
The way it stored energy was not complicated. It was like a spring that was constantly compressed. When it was compressed to the extreme, it would shoot out with a loud bang, driving its body to make various movements.
It was no wonder that this guy's absolute speed was not completely stable. Sometimes, he was just a bit faster than Chen Guang, but sometimes, he was so fast that people could not look at him directly.
At first, Chen Guang thought that it was holding back, but now it seemed that was not the case.
It was just that this guy's movement characteristics were like this. The energy storage time and intensity were not enough, so it naturally could not burst out with amazing power.
In addition, Chen Guang speculated that, with the passage of time, although its body was still indestructible, its joints might show signs of aging due to continuous compression and release.
This kind of aging was not uncommon. Things like rubber or springs would also age after a long period of high-intensity use. Soft rubber would become hard and brittle, and then crack and so on.
Moreover, this aging process was often irreversible.
As an elemental creature, the Earth Ripper certainly would not age irreparably. Perhaps after aging, it would be as good as new after a period of self-healing.
But now, the long period of strenuous exercise had indeed brought great pressure to its joints.
It did not give Chen Guang time to breathe, but Chen Guang, who was like an undying cockroach, also did not give it the slightest chance to breathe. He blocked in front of it again and again.
As time passed, the buzzing sound from its limbs joints became louder and louder. At first, it sounded like a wasp flying, but gradually it became a sound like poking a hornet's nest. Later, it even sounded like a machine cutting wood in a sawmill.
Not only that, but the biggest change came from the color of the gelatin at its joints.
Originally, the dark cyan joints of the Earth Ripper were in harmony with the other parts of its body, but gradually, the dark cyan joints seemed to be plated with a layer of red, gradually turning from dark cyan to dark red. The red became brighter and brighter, as if it had just condensed into a faint glow of magma.
This perverted brother can't hold on any longer!
The idea in Chen Guang's mind was very simple. Now that he had an incredible regenerative ability, as long as he was careful not to be killed by the Earth Ripper in one shot, he would be able to steal a little breathing room. No matter how serious the injury was, he could quickly recover.
It didn't matter how embarrassing or painful it was. He just had to hold on and exhaust the Earth Ripper to death!
Since the Earth Ripper's joints are showing signs of not being able to hold on, then I only have one tactic: exhaust you to death!
Exhaust you to death!
Sure enough, as he expected, the longer he dragged on, the more obvious the red color of the Earth Ripper's joints became, and the louder the noise before each movement became.
Although its triangular head had no facial features and no expression could be seen, Chen Guang could still perceive from its shaking head from time to time that it was gradually becoming impatient.
This was also good news. It proved that although elemental creatures were not humans, they also had emotional fluctuations.
Most importantly, Chen Guang now had the confidence to win after knowing that it had a flaw. Although he was still in a disadvantageous position, he had found the motivation and goal to persevere. He was no longer in despair like he did in the beginning.
"Come on! Weakling, chop me to death! "
"Really, you're pretending to be amazing. At best, you're just tickling me, okay?"
"You're as weak as that Great Earthquake Trembler. I just want to play with you. Otherwise, I can crush you to death with a finger, just like crushing an ant!"
Chen Guang was slashed in the thigh, and his whole body flew out diagonally, but the trash talk in his mouth did not stop for a moment.
It didn't matter whether it understood or not, as long as it could feel the Old Man's contempt for him.
Let it be angry, let it go crazy, let it lose its mind, and never let it have the idea of completely getting rid of him and going straight up the mountain.
To be honest, if the Earth Ripper really did that, he might not be able to stop it.
Perhaps Chen Guang's verbal attack could really cross the barriers of race and language, causing 10,000 psychological trauma to the Earth Ripper. If it didn't chop this annoying cockroach that jumped up and down in its eyes, it really wouldn't be able to swallow it.
Of course, it was also possible that killing Chen Guang was within the scope of its mission, just like the main mission of Chen Guang's three snakes.
But the problem now was that it couldn't kill Chen Guang.
