Chapter 318: Chapter 212 He Will Not Lose_2
Mecha pilots can obtain various benefits through endless challenges and such.
These abyssal monsters can also achieve enhancements.
Who profits and who loses is really hard to say.
In this regard,
the Crimson-faced Asura sat between the Ring Mountain Range, his gaze fixed on the battlefield without shifting in the slightest.
“Refining the conscious soul, reducing information…”
“Before, I hadn’t mastered the Non-Divulge Conscious Soul but achieved a similar effect through other means.”
It was only after personal observation that Purgatory Asura realized.
Jiang Chen had actually only mastered the power of the Extreme Battle Spirit.
Moreover, he hadn’t been at it for long and was still far distant from advanced stages like the Non-Divulge Conscious Soul.
The chasm between his talent and what It had imagined was significant.
However, It was not disappointed.
It could sense the “immature” fragrance of Jiang Chen’s overspilling soul.
This was a freshly formed soul.
Not to mention compared with Asura demons, even amongst mecha pilots, it was an exceptionally naive and young existence.
At such an age, at such a rank, to have mastered the Extreme Battle Spirit already proved his talent.
The most important thing was…
he was not satisfied with this.
Be they mecha pilots or ghosts, Purgatory Asura had seen too many geniuses.
They possessed outstanding talent, controlled a plethora of abilities, far surpassed others of the same rank, and exceeded everyone—
and then, they slowed their pace.
The reason is simple.
When a person has already become the strongest of their rank and surpassed all predecessors, it’s easy to develop complacency involuntarily.
This type of complacency stems not from personal thought but from nature.
When weak, one can look up to the strong, striving to surpass the records set by predecessors.
But when there are no more records or goals ahead, one naturally loses some enthusiasm.
Surpassing oneself is much more difficult than surpassing others.
Even for Purgatory Asura, it’s the same.
It kept moving forward, continually growing stronger without a moment’s pause.
Yet It also longed for an equal, or even stronger, opponent.
And now with Jiang Chen…
As a 3rd Rank mecha pilot who had mastered the Extreme Battle Spirit, with fighting power comparable to a 10th Rank, he had already reached heights unattainable by other mecha pilots.
Yet he showed no signs of slackening but continued to consolidate his strength.
Honing his skills, he tried to enhance the foresight of the Extreme Battle Spirit.
Refining the conscious soul, attempting to acquire the Non-Divulge Conscious Soul.
His body seemed to contain some power that was rapidly digesting and enhancing his abilities.
His Mecha was engaged in challenges, strengthening the mecha soul.
Even…
Purgatory Asura clearly “saw” that just in the recent battle, Jiang Chen’s power suddenly surged.
Translated into data, it’s about 12 million in basic attributes.
Other ghosts, even the Naga Asura currently battling Jiang Chen, took this as his latent power, just a little bit released.
But Purgatory Asura was very clear.
Before the battle, Jiang Chen didn’t possess these strengths.
It was the growth of his physical attributes in the present world that fed back to the conscious soul in the Purgatory level, resulting in the enhancement.
This means…
Jiang Chen not only trained in four directions during the endless challenges,
but even the body left in the present world was undergoing training, improving every moment!!
This exaggerated method of cultivation and growth,
even Purgatory Asura couldn’t help but praise in admiration.
“Impressive.”
This is the opponent It needs!
Outstanding talent, rapid growth, and an almost greedy desire and obsession with becoming stronger.
Not an Asura, but better than one.
Having realized this,
Purgatory Asura’s form grew more ethereal and began dissipating…
It outright withdrew its consciousness, leaving the Endless Deathmatch Arena!
What’s left was no longer worth watching.
Jiang Chen was bound to gradually become stronger, to grow, to reach and even surpass It—
When that time comes, there will naturally be a battle.
Before then,
It naturally had to continue refining its martial skills, enhancing its strength.
To not waste that battle.
Just as Purgatory Asura’s consciousness was leaving,
two other strong and terrifying presences swiftly surged towards the Endless Deathmatch Arena, brushing past it.
In this process, countless pieces of information flowed quickly.
“Asura, you’re returning already?”
“This is the opponent you need, aren’t you going to watch a little longer?”
The message was filled with full-fledged malice.
Another will similarly diffused a bit of information.
“Yes, if he dies in the challenge, you will have lost a good opponent!”
“Aren’t you going to take good care of him, protect him bit by bit as he grows?”
The master of Gluttony Purgatory, Flesh Host.
The master of Pleasure Purgatory, Great Lustful Demon.
The two rulers of Infinite Purgatory, their words tinged with mockery and anger, were evidently dissatisfied with the Purgatory Asura’s actions to prevent Infinite Purgatory from searching for Planet Blue Star.
If it weren’t for Purgatory Asura, who is currently the most powerful ruler of Infinite Purgatory.
Even if the two rulers joined forces, they wouldn’t be sure of victory.
At that moment, it wouldn’t just be dissatisfaction, it would be an outright battle.
The Purgatory Asura, however, did not care about the rulers’ words.
He kept them in the hopes that they would grow until, at some point, they would present Him with a pleasing battle.
At this moment, He also sensed the two rulers’ thoughts.
“Do you want to interfere in the challenge?”
“…What, even you, Lord Asura, cannot allow this to happen?”
“…Are you that worried about his death?”
Sensing the words of the Flesh Host.
Purgatory Asura laughed.
He had prevented the Flesh Host from looking for Planet Blue Star and ambushed Jiang Chen…
He didn’t want his future opponent to die from such a lopsided affair.
How could anyone withstand an 8th Rank challenging a 3rd Rank?
However.
If it were a normal challenge, He would not stop it; on the contrary, He would enjoy seeing it happen—
Just like now.
The Flesh Host and the Great Lustful Demon wanted to interfere in the Endless Challenge.
Although the Endless Deathmatch Arena was born out of Infinite Purgatory, it was essentially a place for cultivating mecha pilots.
These abyss creatures were considered as nourishment for the growth of mecha pilots.
Even Purgatory Asura could not affect anything.
How, then, could the rulers of Purgatory, even as powerful as they are, possibly change or warp the rules of the Endless Deathmatch Arena?
Their “interference”.
Was nothing more than deploying abyssal creatures of corresponding levels during the mecha pilot’s challenges.
These abyssal creatures might be their Mythical avatars, or the Legendary Overlords they raised…
They tried to use these existences, far surpassing the normal difficulty of challenges, to attempt to kill Jiang Chen.
But…
Attributes were set in place.
Even the flesh incarnation of an abyss ruler, with all the powers, traits, and other forces it mastered, would not exceed its corresponding level.
With these forces, they thought they could kill Jiang Chen?
Purgatory Asura didn’t even bother paying attention.
He simply withdrew His will, leaving behind a brief message.
“He will not lose.”
“…Hmph.”
The Flesh Host snorted coldly.
Jiang Chen’s talent was indeed terrifying, even surpassing Purgatory Asura.
But this was precisely his downfall!
A 3rd Rank mecha pilot, facing challenges appropriate to 3rd or 4th Rank, naturally would have no opponents.
But he was challenging those of 8th, even 9th Rank attributes.
To be invincible within his rank while taking on higher ranks,
How could that be possible?
“Not lose?”
“Heh, today he will die here!”
The exchange between the rulers was just a fleeting moment.
Three wills crossed paths.
One left, two entered.
…
[You’ve slain Naga Asura and obtained the legendary module: Tidal Surge (Supercharged).]
[You have won the Endless Challenge, current win streak: 1.]
Jiang Chen did not pay attention to any other factors, wholeheartedly immersed in battle and growth.
Although similar in strength, the endurance of Naga Asura was ultimately slightly weaker.
With the accumulation of injuries, the depletion of strength, and the decline in speed,
he left an opening that was seized, and with several consecutive slashes, his body was cleaved open—
In front of Jiang Chen, once at a disadvantage, there was no chance of turning the tables, and the victor was decided in an instant.
As he slew Naga Asura, the digestion of Shattered Space Dragon Primordial Blood was also complete, and the Mythical Conscious Soul emerged.
A constellation divine dragon, with a body as long as a tapestry, seemingly formed by countless stars, opened its huge maw to swallow a whole star, instantly crushing it and integrating it into its body.
Its star-like eyes looked at Jiang Chen.
[Submit to me…]
Jiang Chen’s form expanded, transforming into a demon god with Three Heads and Six Arms.
“Next.”
