Whether or not Hui Shang's little trick would succeed was not mentioned for now because even if it did, it would only succeed after the second confrontation between the shadow giant and Hui Shang.
The shadow giant's black mist fist was already smashing towards Hui Shang's gemstone shield.
Hui Shang was very confident in his gemstone shield, which was why he dared to play tricks in secret. However, what Hui Shang did not expect was that the moment the huge black mist fist came into contact with the gemstone shield, it actually … assimilated!
Yes, it was assimilated!
Hui Shang watched helplessly as the black mist fist turned into a cluster of yellow crystals. These crystals were as round as gemstones and were exactly the same as the gemstones produced after Hui Shang's bloodline was activated. They shone with a unique and luxurious luster.
Under normal circumstances, even if the black mist fist had assimilated into a gemstone fist, it should have been blocked by the gemstone shield because it would have to deal with a physical collision first.
However, what Hui Shang did not expect was that the moment the gemstone fist came into contact with the gemstone shield, it bypassed the physical collision and passed through the gemstone shield in its elemental form!
It did not sound very difficult. To put it bluntly, it was just elementalization.
However, the real situation was several times more complicated and difficult than it looked from the outside.
It was true that elementalization was the only thing that could pass through the gemstone shield. However, there was a very crucial point.
Even if it was elementalization, it had to abide by a basic elemental principle:
When different elements intersected, the result would be different due to the different nature of the elements. For example, coexistence, fusion, dissolution, explosion, and isolation.
Even when the same elements intersected, the result would be different due to the degree of inertia of the elements themselves and the different forms due to external influences. Although explosions were rare, they still existed. Most of the time, they were coexisting and isolated.
Just like this time, Hui Shang's gemstone shield was undoubtedly the gemstone secret method of the earth attribute and qualitative change branch from the point of view of the elemental side.
Among the qualitative change branches, the most representative branch was not the gemstone secret method, but the mystical alchemy warlock.
Although the mystical alchemy warlock and the gemstone secret method were both qualitative change branches, after elementalization, it was difficult for the two to merge. They were coexisting and isolated.
Even elements of the same structure, the same element, and the same branch could not fuse together. This showed how amazing the attack of the shadow giant was. It could even be said to be exaggerated!
The most exaggerated part was that the moment the black mist-like fist touched the gem shield, it immediately analyzed the gem shield's elemental composition, elemental situation, and elemental properties. It directly transformed itself into the exact same elemental structure and then elementalized to pass through the gem shield!
Putting aside the fact that this wasn't something an ordinary Adept could do, just the difficulty involved was beyond imagination!
And most importantly, how did his opponent convert elements? Wasn't he You Ying? How did he become a gem?
These questions appeared in Hui Shang's mind when he was struck in the chest by the gemstone fist and sent flying. He fell in a parabola in midair.
Even though the pain in his body and the sound of his bones breaking was loud and clear, it was nothing to Hui Shang. What he was most concerned about was … Why? What had happened?
Of course, besides that, Hui Shang did not forget about his little tricks in the dark. Could those unstable elemental gems cause any harm to this strange opponent?
The answer was soon revealed.
Hui Shang fell heavily. He rolled with all his might and propped himself up from the ground. When he stood up, he saw an unbelievable scene.
The shadow giant opposite him … No, there was no shadow giant now. It was a gem giant.
Previously, only one of its fists had turned into a gem. Now, its entire body had turned into a gem.
The gem giant was covered in yellow crystals. It looked more like … a gem dragon. Hui Shang, who truly possessed the bloodline of a gem dragon, was covered in dust.
Originally, various shadow fragments would constantly appear around the gemstone giant, but now, they were replaced by colorful rainbow mist.
The moment the gems shot out from Hui Shang's tail touched the gem giant, they passed through it just like the previous gem shield.
This opponent who called himself Elmi had elementalized once again, and this time, it was assimilated.
All the gems passed through his body without causing an explosion. In the end, they followed the trajectory and pierced into the void, disappearing without a trace.
Gray Shang felt his brain buzzing as he watched the scene unfold before him.
What kind of monster was he facing?
Why? What was going on? What happened? These questions kept echoing in Hui Shang's mind, but he could not find an answer.
After Hui Shang stumbled to his feet, his questions had not been resolved. He simply voiced his doubts to Elmi.
However, the gem giant not far away only looked at Hui Shang condescendingly and said nothing.
Hui Shang laughed self-deprecatingly. "That's true. This is a duel. I'm actually stupid enough to probe my opponent's ability. However, I still have to thank you … No, thank you, sir, for not taking the opportunity to attack me. "
The gem giant still did not speak or attack. It only looked at Hui Shang indifferently.
Hui Shang seemed to have understood something. "I understand. What you want is a real battle."
Hui Shang raised his head. His expression instantly became solemn. His eyes revealed a strong desire to fight.
"I will fulfill your request!"
As Hui Shang spoke, his blood energy kept flowing out. His muscles became huge and his limbs began to swell. His legs were like elephant legs, strong and thick. Crystals formed on his body at an extremely fast speed. These crystals covered his entire body!
This meant that Hui Shang was ready for a real battle. Bloodline Full Release!
The aura of the gem dragon continued to climb.
Facing this terrifying dragon's might, Dorcas, who was outside the arena, couldn't help but shiver. His Swordback Sandworm Bloodline was restless. He wanted to challenge the dragon's aura, but more than that, he was terrified because of the bloodline suppression.
Dorcas suppressed the restlessness of his bloodline and looked at the center of the arena with a frown. "What's he doing? Even Elmi might not be able to suppress Hui Shang's bloodline after he fully releases it. "
Dorcas also warned Angor to kill Hui Shang before he fully released his bloodline. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Unlike Alteration Wizards, Bloodline Wizards used the same bloodline. Even if they fully released their bloodline, there would not be any serious side effects. However, a Bloodline Wizard who fully released his bloodline would be unimaginably powerful.
Only Wai could answer Dorcas' question.
"What do you know? Mister told Hui Shang to fully release his bloodline for a reason. The battle at the top is a head-on confrontation! "
Dorcas did not want to talk to Angor's crazy fan. He only looked into the distance and waited for the next change.
Not only Dorcas, but Wise Lord, Dark Earl, and Shrew were also curious about what Angor was doing.
Was it really all for the sake of a hearty battle?
Of course not.
When Elmi turned into a gem giant and allowed the bombs to penetrate his body, Angor called for a halt.
Finally, he sensed the strange emotion in the air.
However, the strange emotion was very subtle and came and went from time to time. Angor only stopped Elmi for a moment so that his senses would not be affected because of Elmi's sudden movements.
Still, Angor knew his priorities. Defeating Hui Shang was the most important thing right now. Finding "her" was only a side option.
Angor only dared to stop Elmi because he was confident that he could win. That was why he placed the side option at the top of his list.
After Elmi stopped, Angor began to carefully examine the source of the strange emotion.
Without the interference of the rampaging elements, Angor soon found the source of the strange emotion.
Angor was surprised by the answer.
The strange emotion came from … Hui Shang!
Yes, Hui Shang, who was still in a duel with him.
Angor sensed two different emotions from Hui Shang. The first emotion came from Hui Shang himself. It was the most obvious and unconcealed kind emotion. Angor did not know why Hui Shang was so agitated right now.
The second emotion also came from the gray merchant. It was different from the emotions of other creatures. It was very faint, and sometimes it was absent. It was as if there was a layer of gauze between them. It was blurry.
Even so, Angor still noticed the strange emotion. It was "parasitic" on Hui Shang's body.
Angor, who was surrounded by hostile emotions, paid attention to the few friendly emotions he received. Especially when Hui Shang was his opponent and the only one in the Traveling Merchants who showed him kindness. Angor paid more attention to him.
This was why Angor noticed the strange emotion coming from Hui Shang right away.
Hui Shang's "strange emotion" was because Hui Shang was kind to Angor, while Hui Shang's emotion was the complete opposite. It was obviously hostile.
If it was in the void, Angor would not notice it at all when it was surrounded by the chaotic and violent emotions. But it was too obvious when it came from Hui Shang.
In Angor's opinion, there were only three possibilities. First, Hui Shang had multiple personalities. Another one of his personalities was trying to harm Angor. Second, Hui Shang had a life form or energy entity like Elmi or his elemental companion. These intelligent beings were trying to harm Angor.
The third possibility was "that person" who was watching him from the dark.
Angor naturally preferred the third possibility. The first two were only "probabilities", but he was sure that "that person" was watching him from the dark.
Angor believed that the third possibility was more likely to happen.
But if "that person" was really watching him … Angor was a little surprised. He thought "she" would observe the duel through the magic array. Or maybe she would just hide somewhere near the stage.
He did not expect "that person" to observe him from the stage as his opponent.
Angor did not know what he did to make "that person" so hostile.
Could it be because of the oil painting that he had destroyed? That painting was so important that "she" would put the Noah Family aside and only care about him?
Angor did not know the reason, but he was certain that "that person" meant harm.
Since he already knew where "she" was, Angor withdrew his senses so that "she" wouldn't notice.
"I see. You're looking for a real battle, mister." Gray Merchant's voice was heard as soon as he retracted his senses.
"???" What did you just say?
Before Angor could react, Hui Shang activated his bloodline and looked at Angor with a determined look. "I will fulfill your request, mister!"
Angor did not know what to say.
It was only a few seconds. Why did Hui Shang become so hot-blooded all of a sudden? Angor felt that it would be a mistake if he did not join the fight.
Also, where did Hui Shang get the idea that Angor wanted a "real fight"?
If he really wanted a real fight, why did he ask Ell to join him?
Angor did not know what to do. But when he looked at Hui Shang's bulging muscles and surging aura, he knew that he could not stay still any longer.
It was time to decide the winner.
…
Activating a bloodline did not take long. This was especially true for Bloodline Magi, who had a pure bloodline. Even if their bloodline was fully opened, they could still activate it while fighting, and the duration would not exceed two seconds.
But now, Hui Shang already spent 20 seconds to activate his bloodline.
The form of his bloodline was slowly taking shape. First, various crystals and gems slowly seeped out of his skin, followed by scales and armor made of crystals slowly covering his entire body. Then, his muscles gradually expanded, his bones gradually changed, and his Draconic Aura gradually rose to the peak.
There was another signature feature, which was Hui Shang's mask. It covered his entire face at first, then turned into a "forehead ornament", then a "hair clip", and finally an ornament on his crystal scales.
Angor could tell that Hui Shang's body was growing bigger.
Would he become stronger like this? No, he would look more handsome like this.
Of course, Hui Shang was not trying to look handsome. He was just waiting for his opponent and Ell to make a move.
As long as Ell showed that he wanted to fight, he would immediately enter his battle mode.
In his mind, this was a "real fight", and it was necessary to show respect to his opponent.
After about half a minute, Angor finally realized what was going on. He slowly reached out a hand and aimed at Hui Shang.
Hui Shang knew that the fight had begun.
Without any hesitation, the giant "Gem Dragon" leaped into the air and controlled its muscle center to turn it into a sharp crystal wheel that rolled toward Angor.
