I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1644 - 1162: Better to Be Tough

On the once tranquil earth, black fissures appeared, as if something was about to break through the surface, but ultimately, it did not emerge.

The ’calm’ Boundary Dragon suddenly went into a rampage, opening its mouth wide and descending from the sky, biting into the spot hit by the black spear, pulling out a large, lifeless boulder.

A portion of the boulder shattered and fell into the Boundary Dragon’s mouth, while the other part landed heavily on the ground, with a piercing hole still visible on it.

The oversized Boundary Dragon began to shrink, with dragon horns and claws reappearing, making its posture much richer than a simple serpentine form.

Zheng Yichen could now understand the difference between the two forms of the Boundary Dragon. The serpentine form was the original, primal form, representing a state of fully released strength.

The dragon form was akin to an energy-optimized state. Although more energy-efficient, the use of strength was downgraded due to the optimization.

However, in terms of endurance, the dragon form’s endurance was more than twenty times that of the serpentine form, and due to this self-optimization, the recovery rate of strength was also faster.

But there was a significant gap in combat power between the two forms. The serpentine form of the Boundary Dragon could crush its dragon form self.

The Boundary Dragon, restored to its dragon form, swiftly darted into Zheng Yichen’s sleeve, where he vaguely heard a cat’s discontented meow.

The expanded parallel space was dispelled, and Liu Hongzhao and others, who had been diverted there, also appeared here. Less than a minute of battle had also drained them significantly.

Although those Heroic Spirit warriors were not gods, possessing the power of the Earth God made their combat prowess not weak.

Under the malevolence of the Earth God, neither side engaged in probing attacks; the battle started at the most intense fervor.

"A mouthful of earthy taste." Lin Yaoyao showed some disdain as she took out a bottle of water to rinse her mouth; the battle spirit exuded by those Heroic Spirit warriors made of earth carried an ’earthiness.’

Less than a minute of high-intensity combat didn’t even complete a round of the Cycle Tidal. She still wanted to try the limits of Demonic Abyss Seven Kills, but ended up slacking.

Unlike Liu Hongzhao, who didn’t think too much and started with a killer move, thus achieving the best battle record. However, Lin Yaoyao glanced at the red-haired, red-clothed girl, and her smile was slightly subtle. Even with the best record, she was also the one who ’ate’ the most earth.

She hopped to the side of that rock, reached out, and knocked on it: "Brother Chang Qing, your control over Oblivion is much better now."

The strike that killed the Earth God contained a trace of Oblivion force; this power seemed to be calculated very precisely, being exhausted just after killing the Earth God.

Oblivion can indeed be consumed; the concept of water wearing away a stone applies, provided the water’s quality is high enough. The Earth God’s quality was high enough to exhaust the Oblivion force Zheng Yichen invested.

"It’s still a bit lacking; the investment was too little." Zheng Yichen looked at the chaotic surroundings. The investment in Oblivion force was a bit low; it didn’t directly complete the kill, allowing the thing to struggle a bit.

As a result, the earth’s ley lines in this isolated zone completely collapsed, and the entire land was dying.

However, Zheng Yichen, for the sake of environmental protection, expressed that this situation was also acceptable. The World Tree appeared, sorting out the earth with collapsed ley lines.

Diluted Chaotic Sea Water dripped into Zheng Yichen’s hand. It served as the activation energy, and after reversing the use of the Earth Devourer, the earth regained its vitality.

Zheng Yichen exhaled a turbid breath. This was his first time using the Earth Devourer this way, as he had to bear all the consumption when reversing its use.

Even though Zheng Yichen now had a Life Furnace, generating Life Force even with his breath, he rarely used it.

Now that the Dragon City Planet was the main base, it needed to be well protected.

"Brother Chang Qing, this stone can be used for farming."

"Then take it with you." After Zheng Yichen broke off a piece, the remainder of the stone was of no use to him. Subsequent uses would just involve Lilith absorbing and decomposing a part of it.

The remaining part could be stored in a warehouse, possibly useful someday in the future, but most of the time it would gather dust.

Lin Yaoyao could find additional uses for this thing, which pleased Zheng Yichen.

"Then I won’t be polite." The girl eagerly collected the stone; considering it was the remnants of an Earth God, it would be very suitable for grinding into powder and then used for growing medicinal herbs.

"To the next location." After confirming this piece of earth was restored to its original state and the influence of Hell’s Will had covered this area, Zheng Yichen chose the next location without any pause.

As for whether Hell’s Will would have other thoughts once it grew larger, Zheng Yichen would consider switching to a new one. How about the Boundary Dragon?

Reaching out to the slightly prickly dragon head in his sleeve, Zheng Yichen shook his head. Hell’s Will was still normal for now; future matters would be dealt with in the future.

Zheng Yichen glanced at the communication device. Julie over there was also encountering trouble; her efficiency wasn’t as high as his, and she was still in the middle of battle.

Obviously, the Earth God on her side wasn’t easy to deal with either.

Zheng Yichen quite liked such hard-to-deal Earth Gods. Hard-to-deal meant that he could eliminate them without any burdens when he acted.

These Earth Gods were each fragments of the World’s Will. Keeping them grudgingly compliant could potentially lead to problems in the future, whereas solving all of them would eliminate such issues.

Even if Hell’s Will caused issues in the future, there would only be one problem to solve, making it not overly complex to handle.
