"Lowly ant, you've taken the attack of my natal energy. Let's see if you can survive! Ha ha ha! "
The proud and cruel voice of the semi-sage octopus was heard from afar. It was clearly transmitted into Xiao Chen's ears.
"Natal energy? What's that? Is it similar to burning one's life energy? "This was the first time that Xiao Chen had heard about natal energy. So, he couldn't understand it.
So, he could only make wild guesses. "Big Brother, natal energy is the most powerful and quintessential energy contained in a demon beast's inner core. It's not the same as the life energy. But, it's almost as important as the life energy. The semi-sage octopus didn't hesitate to use its natal energy because it was afraid of death. So, its strength must've plummeted after it had launched such an attack. So, it'll need a long time to recover," The Lion King answered Xiao Chen's question.
"So, that's what happened." Xiao Chen had more or less understood the situation. An ominous glint flashed in his eyes. He sneered, "Da Huang, Xiao Sha, we've suffered a big loss this time. But, we'll pay you back with interest later!"
"Big Brother, you can do it! Now, quickly take some healing pills to heal your injuries! "The Lion King and the Fengsha Sword said in unison.
"En."
Xiao Chen and the Fengsha Sword were sent flying thousands of feet away. Their speed had slowed down. Then, he stretched out his numb right hand, and took out a jade bottle from the storage ring on his left hand. There were four healing pills inside.
"Creak! Creak! " Xiao Chen pulled out the cork of the bottle with his teeth. Then, he poured the four top-grade healing pills into his mouth. Then, he chewed the expensive healing pills into powder as if he was chewing peanuts, and swallowed them down into his stomach.
The fragments of the healing pills were quickly refined by Xiao Chen's spiritual power. Then, the medicinal efficacies were continuously transported to every part of Xiao Chen's body. And, they were healing every part of his body at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
The Fengsha Sword did not shrink to its normal size. It remained in its enlarged form in front of Xiao Chen, trying to buy time for Xiao Chen to heal.
The semi-sage octopus in the distance had launched an attack using its Source Energy. So, its body had become a lot weaker, and its strength had also dropped a lot. However, it believed that Xiao Chen was on the verge of death. Therefore, it felt that it was worth it.
Swish swish swish!
The semi-sage octopus had begun to fly towards Xiao Chen. It wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of Xiao Chen in one fell swoop, and get rid of any future troubles. Its eyes were fixed on the Fengsha Sword in front of Xiao Chen, and its eyes were brimming with curiosity and greed.
"This sword is not bad. After I kill that kid, this sword will belong to me. Hehe." The semi-sage octopus had realized that the Fengsha Sword that had automatically protected its owner was extraordinary. Therefore, it became greedy and decided to take it for itself.
How could a sword that could block an all-out attack of the semi-sage octopus's Source Energy be an ordinary sword? The semi-sage octopus didn't use weapons. It didn't understand weapons either. However, its eyesight was still pretty good. Therefore, it could tell that the Fengsha Sword was different from the others.
The semi-sage octopus swaggered towards Xiao Chen and the Fengsha Sword. It believed that Xiao Chen must have sustained serious injuries even if he hadn't been directly hit by the Source Energy. This was something it absolutely believed.
However, it knew too little about Xiao Chen. So, it didn't know how abnormal Xiao Chen's defensive power and restorative power were. Moreover, it didn't know that an expert could use a Holy Healing Elixir to heal injuries.
It had underestimated him!
The semi-sage octopus had once again underestimated Xiao Chen's strength. It had underestimated Xiao Chen's strength. So, it had to pay a painful price for underestimating him. It didn't seize this opportunity to escape. Instead, it wanted to kill Xiao Chen. Moreover, it also wanted to steal the Fengsha Sword. It would soon suffer the consequences of its own actions.
The distance between the two sides was getting shorter and shorter. Xiao Chen was seizing the time to heal his injuries and restore his strength. At the same time, he started to prepare his strongest move. He planned to give the semi-sage octopus a fatal blow, and end its life once and for all.
What was Xiao Chen's strongest move? Was it the Chaos Sound? Was it the Nine Extreme Kill? Wrong! It was the Phantom Technique!
That's right, Xiao Chen was preparing the Phantom Technique, and he was planning to use the Phantom Technique under the condition of Beast Fusion. Back then, when he successfully cultivated the Phantom Technique's first layer in the Dragon Elephant Realm, the power of the Phantom Technique's first layer had already surpassed the Nine Extreme Kills.
The octopus octopus couldn't accurately predict how powerful the Phantom Technique would be when Xiao Chen used the strength of the pseudo demigod realm's third stage. However, it was certain that it would be stronger than the Nine Extreme Kill. As for how strong it would be, it could only be known after using it.
The semi-sage octopus didn't have a very high IQ. It hadn't thought about why Xiao Chen had fused with a lion. It also hadn't thought that Xiao Chen possessed the strength of a young man who was barely able to fight against it.
The semi-sage octopus octopus wouldn't have been killed so miserably by Xiao Chen if it had been a demigod realm expert. After all, Xiao Chen's strength was enough to rival a genuine demigod realm expert.
Xiao Chen could barely fight against a demigod realm expert by relying on his tough body and powerful combat skills. In addition, he had also relied on his enemy's contempt for him.
Xiao Chen was hiding behind the Fengsha Sword at this time. He was crazily mobilizing his spiritual power and gathering it on the surface of his body in accordance with the Phantom Technique.
Spirit Gathering! Phantom Form! Spirit Bestowal!
This was the three-step rhythm of the Phantom Technique. None of the three steps could be omitted. And, it couldn't be used successfully if any of them were omitted. Xiao Chen was now carrying out the first step of the Phantom Technique — Spirit Gathering.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The speed of the semi-sage octopus was neither fast nor slow. It could cover a distance of 10,000 feet in a breath's time. It was about 15,000 feet away from Xiao Chen. In other words, it would need about 15 breaths' time to arrive in front of Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had less than 15 breaths' time left. And, he had to do two things at the same time in these 15 breaths' time. One was to heal his wounds and restore his strength. And, the other was to make sufficient preparations to launch the Phantom Technique.
Time was of the essence! The moment of imminent peril had arrived!
Three breaths' time had elapsed!
Spirit Gathering was successful!
Next was Phantom Form!
Another three breaths' time had elapsed!
Phantom Form was successful!
The final step of Spirit Bestowal had arrived!
Xiao Chen unleashed the Phantom Technique with all his strength. This was his second time using the Phantom Technique. The first time was when he had successfully practiced the first stage of the Phantom Technique. Therefore, he wasn't very proficient in using the Phantom Technique. In fact, he was still very unfamiliar with it.
Xiao Chen could only use the Phantom Technique once. He would lose the opportunity to use the Phantom Technique if he failed. Then, he would have no choice but to use other offensive techniques to deal with the semi-sage octopus that was getting closer and closer.
Success or failure depended on this moment!
A humanoid silhouette of black and purple electric arcs had appeared on the surface of Xiao Chen's body at this time. This humanoid silhouette was gathering one-third of Xiao Chen's spiritual power.
The appearance of this humanoid silhouette was extremely similar to Xiao Chen's appearance. It contained an incomparably terrifying energy. However, it looked sluggish at the moment. It seemed as if it was a soulless shell because Xiao Chen hadn't bestowed a trace of spiritual power to it yet.
