I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1539 - 1087: Still Some Use

Yu Heng showed no sympathy for the dead Star God; it was merely a consumable. Dead is dead, and the focus mainly lay on the power exhibited by Zheng Yichen.

She had grown far stronger, even voluntarily giving up her place in the great domain, choosing a remote region in the Great World to make her breakthrough and reclaim her former domain.

This was far more difficult than a normal assignment.

Even after reclaiming the domain she voluntarily gave up, she did not relax her vigilance.

In the domain she reclaimed, she connected to the region where the Demonic Abyss was located.

The Demonic Abyss left by Zheng Yichen back then still lingered within the Great World, with the destructive impact on the land remaining.

However, the Great World had enough depth to quickly erase those impacts, and the price for erasing them... was simply to fill in relatively useless ’worlds’.

In the worlds heavily invaded by the Boundary Breaking Organization, some worlds are quite special, becoming crucial modules of the Great World, like the world of the Ancient Venerable.

The Great World greatly needs such worlds as new puzzle pieces, yet their actions were thwarted by Zheng Yichen.

There are other worlds, similarly affected, while the uninspired worlds are little more than inconsequential parts within the Great World.

These are essentially the ’Overgrown Wilderness’ zones outside sector rings, where humans exist in small numbers without any domain masters.

The overall state is relatively chaotic; periodically, people go to these regions to harvest resources. Whenever a Boundary Breaker wants to become a domain master, they can apply to go to those places directly.

In those regions, there is little requirement for the quality of a domain master; even moderately powerful Boundary Breakers can become domain masters there, but it’s unlikely for greenhorns.

They can go to become domain masters, but traveling such long distances only to be counter-killed by indigenous peoples is a likely event, especially considering many Boundary Breakers replenish their personnel from remote, harsh lands.

There are resources there, but due to chaos, local competition is extremely fierce, quickening the speed of becoming stronger under survival pressure; as for grudges...

They used to exist, but over time, new generations become aggressors.

Thus repairing the Great World’s earth amounts to reducing a few remote great domains, a loss acceptable within the Boundary Breaking Organization of the Great World.

Yu Heng had contact with the Demonic Abyss, using it to refine her own moonlight, eagerly anticipating a confrontation with Zheng Yichen, not worried about falling too far behind.

After all, the high environment of the Great World provides Zheng Yichen the ability to possess apex combat power, though improving that power within such an environment is quite difficult.

It’s like master-level cultivation reaching a pinnacle over millennia, whereas new advanced cultivators can achieve such levels in mere decades...

Yet seeing Zheng Yichen again, his oppressive presence felt stronger; he truly was a monster with rapid growth!

The Eye of Heavenly Dao had analyzed Zheng Yichen’s cultivation technique, estimated its potential. While the upper limit was impressive, it shouldn’t let Zheng Yichen become this strong.

He appeared this powerful due to his own bloodsucking ability. However, bloodsucking abilities usually bring numerous problems, with progress becoming harder the further ahead.

Unless he could perfectly refine the strength obtained through bloodsucking.

"Hello there." Zheng Yichen waved to Yu Heng: "Any thought of abandoning darkness for light?"

Yu Heng remained silent; what abandoning darkness for light? Her position was within the Great World, as a native inhabitant, enjoying the convenience and benefits of its growth.

As for the casualties arising during the Great World’s growth, they could be seen as part of the strengthening process of many powerful figures, each standing on corpses beneath their feet.

For the Great World to grow, it too must have a foundation of countless ’corpses’.

In her view, Zheng Yichen was the greatest obstacle, moreover her... Heart Demon!

Having adapted to the Demonic Abyss, she thought she had overcome her Heart Demon, yet facing Zheng Yichen’s overwhelming suppressive force, Yu Heng realized she hadn’t improved enough.

Clear moonlight enveloped Yu Heng, her figure vanished from Zheng Yichen’s sight, using a kind of hyper-speed movement akin to Instant Shift.

The speed exploded instantaneously, surpassing Zheng Yichen greatly, which was Yu Heng’s advantage, though currently her advantage lay only in speed.

Zheng Yichen had always followed a hexagonal approach, making Yu Heng appear ’ineffectual’ before him except for her speed.

The vanished Yu Heng didn’t use the opportunity to attack Zheng Yichen; she chose to hide, direct confrontation would be a death sentence.

Finding an opportunity was necessary; Star Gods were their cannon fodder, whereas Zheng Yichen had reasons to eliminate Star Gods.

"BOSS, the time is rapidly decreasing." Lilith reported critical information to Zheng Yichen.

"It’s indeed a trap, how incompetent Dusk is." Zheng Yichen expressed such sentiment once again, feeling a bit helpless.

It’s not that Dusk is really useless, it’s just that Dusk doesn’t care about too many things, so the guidance and other operations by the Boundary Breaking Organization in the Great World can be effective.

Traps are traps, but this world is real. His mission is to save this world, and he solves the issue of the traps himself.

Even with the chance to retreat, Zheng Yichen isn’t panicked. However, having stepped into a trap once, if he does it again and remains passive as he is now, then he truly has no way to survive.

So passivity is impossible. After taking one last look at where Yu Heng disappeared, Zheng Yichen continued to kill those Star Gods, but this time he didn’t use long-range methods.

He resolved them through close combat, spending more time is okay, but he can’t waste the bodies of these Star Gods.

Each time the Earth Devouring eliminates a Star God, Zheng Yichen gains a new temporary strength limit.

But the Star Gods’ counterattacks are also extremely fierce. The power of the high-energy beams in the distance is immense and the speed is even faster. Some attacks Zheng Yichen can dodge, but inevitably some attacks will land on him.

Landing on unprotected areas, Zheng Yichen’s body would be directly pierced through. His armor isn’t like it’s from a game, where wearing it provides full-body protection.

It only protects the areas covered by the armor.

"Why don’t we destroy that planet?" At a starry sky camp, the Star Gods walking the Mortal Realm were present, but only the top-tier Star Gods could appear here.

The once high and mighty Star Gods, those not strong enough have become cannon fodder-like existences, their sole-purpose is to exhaust Zheng Yichen’s combat energy.

Don’t expect to exhaust his physical strength and power; Earth Devouring keeps the Proxy Agent’s state at peak condition at all times, and he can dodge some attacks and retreat to the Dusk Territory for rest.

This situation frustrated some Star Gods immensely. They used the gravity exerted by the Star Cluster to restrict Zheng Yichen. Although it was only for a brief moment, it still had a significant impact on Zheng Yichen.

Even two attacks penetrated his head... but it was useless.

For Zheng Yichen, such a special existence, the brain is no longer a fatal weak point. His life force is too strong, binding his body in a unique connection.

Even if his head were chopped off, he could still move, even able to reach out and catch his falling head, put it back on his neck and recover.

The same method used again has little effect on Zheng Yichen.

"It’s pointless. Destroying the heart-core planet won’t cause Dusk to disappear, instead, it would make it easier for him to return to Dusk." A Boundary Breaker glanced at the Mortal Star God.

Their idea was clear, simply trying to destroy the heart-core planet to expedite the breaking of boundaries, but that isn’t possible.

After two days of fighting with Zheng Yichen, thousands of Star Gods died at his hands. These Star Gods also inquired of the Boundary Breakers why they were doing this.

They did not hide their purpose, but they didn’t disclose everything.

"If you wish to join the Great World, you must bring forth corresponding achievements. His death will be your greatest honor."

The Star Gods in the camp of the Mortal Realm remained silent. How strong is the Great World? Over the past two days, they have already felt it, enabling them to exert even greater influence.

The arriving Boundary Breakers offered many techniques suitable for their strength usage, allowing them to significantly enhance their power intensity.

Like those attacking beams, they represent a brand-new way of using energy, employing the star bodies as weapons, launching them as Miniature Star Body Wave Cannons.

Miniature doesn’t mean small power; in fact, it could mean power is further condensed and compressed.

The power of the Star Fluctuation Cannon is extraordinarily strong, regular entities simply cannot withstand this consumption, but for Star Gods, this consumption is inconsequential.

Their star bodies are inherently vast pools; not to mention, they have ample energy.

Besides the Star Fluctuation Cannon, there are formations involving the Star Cluster, magic arrays, and formations from the immortals and heroes genre.

The number of stars is abundant, these formations combined with their constellation linkages allowed them to gradually construct a circle of starry protection, no longer in a scattered state.

Running around scatteringly would only get them cut down by the Proxy Agent, but forming a stable protection circle allowed them to effectively resist the Proxy Agent’s attacks.

Though occasionally some Star Gods would still be eliminated or pulled into other spaces created by Zheng Yichen, the current losses remain acceptable.

The number of Star Gods exceeds ten thousand, over eighty thousand of these Star Gods are parasitized by Constellation Resonance, though many have been slain by Zheng Yichen, the total still exceeds eighty-five thousand.

The current chase by Zheng Yichen has brought minimal losses to him.

Instead, the arriving Boundary Breakers from the Great World brought good things, and as the Proxy Agent accumulates battle time, the Shadow of the Eye of Heavenly Path they brought will unravel more information.

It’s best to only use this information for reference, not take it too seriously, but even as a reference, it gives participating stars extra protective abilities.

They might still be unable to win, but at least there’s a chance they won’t be instantly killed...
