Chapter 1046 A Battle Between High-Grade Adepts
A battle between high-grade adepts could no longer be compared to the hunting and fighting of ordinary creatures!
Battles between ordinary beings were ultimately a contest of raw strength and technique. Meanwhile, a fight between high-grade adepts was a competition of Strength, Agility, Physique, Spirit, skill, and senses.
During a battle, the massive amounts of magical energy within a high-grade adept’s body would naturally form a defensive forcefield, cutting off all foreign spiritual probes. That said, as long as their body and Spirit still conducted energy exchange and interaction with the external world, the opponent would be able to pick up on their intentions in battle based on the minute energy shifts in the surroundings.
When both adepts’ Spirits were firmly locked onto each other, the factors that determined the final result of the battle would be massively expanded. It would no longer be purely a matter of base power and combat prowess, but the nature of power, the application of force, and many, many others.
Some times, even the slightest change in the environment or one’s emotion during battle could affect the final result. Should an adept be forced into a disadvantage during a fight, defeat would become very likely unless they were to turn the tables by some forceful means.
Though the two days and nights of encirclement by the zombies did not inflict any physical or spiritual damage to Gallow, it had substantially worn away at his will to battle. The sudden appearance of Greem’s Origin Fire during his fight became the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
At the very least, Gallow’s combat will and desire for victory had been completely suppressed!
After all, when fighting against an adept as strong as Gallow, a bigger size would only mean making himself a bigger target.
There was no merit to being large either. It was better to be small since it made it easier to control his powers!
Greem’s red and white body quickly wove about the battlefield, blue light flickering in his blazing eyes, capturing every change in the substances and elementium around him.
Countless haphazard red lines wrapped around each other and slashed towards him in his Elementium Sight. According to the data provided by the Chip, these force threads created by Gallow’s raw Strength all had over 600 points of power. Greem’s magical defenses could not defend against these threads at all.
Even a single one of these force threads could slice through all of Greem’s defenses and hit his body.
If it were only a single force thread, Greem would be able to escape with some slight injury. Two threads, and he would risk losing a limb or even being cut in half. Three threads…the Chip revealed that Greem’s life would be in danger if he got caught by three threads. He would have a 46% chance of dying instantly.
That was already a terrifying number!
Greem quickly retreated without any hesitation.
He also manipulated the flames and changed their trajectory as he backed off, blasting them into the force threads that were winding towards him.
It was a clash of concentrated energy and loose energy. Thus, the torrent of fire was instantly cut into sparks by the incredibly focused force threads. The threads glowed brighter and brighter in Greem’s Elementium Sight.
Even Scarface Gallow, with his tremendous Physique, had to stop and rest for a few seconds to calm the boiling energy in his body after unleashing such a violent attack. He then leaped into the air once again, chasing after the force threads and lunging wildly at Greem.
Greem stared at Gallow through the hundreds of force threads. He was still retreating, constantly gathering more fire to slow down and obstruct the force threads as he did so.
The two adepts quickly left the corpse mountain behind them, one chasing and one fleeing into the distance.
