Chapter 488: Chapter 486 The First Conversation

Bai Cang, with a hint of regret in his voice, said to Wen Wen, "At your age, to have such strength, it’s truly a pity to die here. Why not stand aside?"

"Tsk..."

Wen Wen smacked his lips and raised an eyebrow, "You’re at the Mid-Sequence, and so am I. Are you that confident you can kill me?"

"Do you think you’re a flower, and I’m tofu dregs? Don’t be too arrogant!"

Bai Cang shook his head and said in a solemn tone, "If it were the me from before, my strength would at most be on par with yours."

"But now... our strengths are not at the same level."

"Since you’re so oblivious, I won’t hold back anymore. It’s also somewhat dangerous to keep dragging this out with you here, so please do me the favor and die!"

Bai Cang’s eyes suddenly burst with golden light, like two shining miniature light bulbs, and a golden dragon phantom surfaced on his body, making his aura even more terrifying.

But the changes did not stop there, the golden light slowly transformed into multicolored radiance, and the power that this radiance represented was completely different from Bai Cang’s own.

Untamed, vicious, brutal, yet filled with an indescribable noble air—although there was only a trace of it, it was unquestionably the aura of a Catastrophe-Level without a doubt!

Wen Wen was shocked as he watched Bai Cang, "From what he said before, whatever they stole from the Demon Spirit Village should have helped them enhance their strength, but I really did not expect it would involve the power of the Catastrophe Level."

"No wonder Xun Ying placed such importance on this matter, and no wonder there’s such a huge disparity between his strength and the records, but... is the power of the Catastrophe Level so easily absorbed?"

"Moreover, if ’Wild Soul’ is their leader, then why does this power appear in him?"

While Wen Wen was baffled, Bai Cang had already stopped changing, the long spear wrapped with a colorful dragon, giving off an extremely oppressive feeling.

"I gave you a chance earlier, but you didn’t cherish it. Now I’m equivalent to a Ranger of the Assimilation Upper Sequence. You alone are absolutely no match for me," said Bai Cang as he got ready to fight.

Just as Bai Cang was about to engage in battle, Wen Wen suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Hold on, I still have one question."

"What question?"

"Hmm, actually, I’ve been wanting to ask since I first saw you. Your armor looks cool, but with so many spikes, doesn’t it prick yourself?"

Bai Cang’s eyes widened, somewhat baffled by Wen Wen’s train of thought.

However, he had actually encountered this problem; his armor covered with barbs was a powerful set of Superpowered Battle Armor.

But if he wasn’t careful in his movements, he could be pricked by his own spikes. Bai Cang had also trained many times in private to ensure that he wouldn’t touch the spikes.

Suddenly questioned by Wen Wen about this, he was reminded of some unpleasant memories, so he said in annoyance, "What I wear has nothing to do with you, prepare to die!"

Bai Cang charged at Wen Wen like a furious, colorful dragon, the pressure he exerted was even more overwhelming than the Catastrophic Dragon.

Wen Wen could not afford to meet this attack head-on. He hastily threw his long spear, using the momentum of the throw to move away.

Wen Wen’s previous position was directly blasted into a deep pit, and Bai Cang with a stomp in the pit, jumped right beside Wen Wen again.

Bai Cang’s speed was incredibly fast. Wen Wen’s conscious mind could react, but his body was struggling to keep up.

In a critical moment, Wen Wen snapped his fingers with his left hand, and the Target Eye Shield appeared, blocking a stab from Bai Cang and sending him flying backwards.

Wen Wen, sent flying by the tremendous force, had just landed, and Bai Cang was already above him, aiming his long spear straight at Wen Wen’s chest and thrusting it down.

"Block it for me!"

Because of the Target Eye Shield’s special properties, he blocked Bai Cang’s attack once more, but Wen Wen spat out a mouthful of blood, gritting his teeth he shouted, "Get out of my way!"

Wen Wen’s hair at the back of his head grew wildly, his hair like a tide of black, closing up like a huge black flower, but Bai Cang had leaped out before the black hair closed, not suffering even the slightest injury.

With blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Wen Wen’s body floated up, his left hand shielding while his right hand wielded the sword, the black hair behind him forming a giant black ghostly face.

His momentum was quite terrifying, but facing the man wrapped with a multicolored dragon in front of him, Wen Wen had no assurance of victory.

"You have quite a number of tricks, but your strength is mixed and impure. An average Assimilation Mid-Sequence should be no match for you, yet none of your methods exceed the Disaster Intermediate Sequence level, which means no matter how many tricks you have, you can’t threaten me," Bai Cang said proudly as he stared at Wen Wen, his expression showing a hint of excitement. Now, they still hadn’t completely absorbed the power of that bead, and he was already crushing an enemy previously on par with him in strength.

If fully absorbed, to what extent could he become powerful... True Sequence?

Perhaps even more!

A share of one twelfth of a Catastrophe-Level Expert’s power is also far beyond the True Sequence!

Wen Wen licked the blood from his lips, with one strand of hair already binding the Jade Sword. This time, if anything went awry, he would call for Xun Ying!

Although Xun Ying said not to bother him with weak minions, that wasn’t more important than Wen Wen’s own life.

Then Wen Wen looked at his right hand’s Target Eye Shield with heartache. Dents had appeared on the Containment Item’s shield; it was no longer as smooth, and although it did not hinder its use, Wen Wen still found it displeasing to the eye.

"I wonder if bartering with that old man could make it smooth again."

"Also, that guy hiding in the dark, what kind of show is he watching? The situation is like this and he still doesn’t offer to lend a hand."

"And that damned power barrier, if it weren’t for the fact that I can only exert the strength of the Mid-Sequence Realm at most, with so many methods at my disposal, it shouldn’t be this bad..."

Just as he thought of this, Wen Wen’s heart pounded violently, and then a strange voice echoed in his mind.

"Do you want to break through the power barrier? I can help you."

Wen Wen froze, his eyes widening as he asked, "Who are you?"

"Who I am, you will find out later. Now, use your right hand to absorb the power from the person across from you, and then I can... let you complete Assimilation!"

Complete Assimilation...

The owner of the voice, there was no need to guess anymore.

Every superpower user on the verge of advancing to the Assimilation Realm can communicate with the original owner of the power within their body, and then by defeating the original owner of the power, they can transform into the original form of that power, that is, the Assimilation Realm.

And Wen Wen’s own superpower ’Dark Matter,’ its original owner of the power, had definitely a deep connection with the Sanctuary, Wen Wen even suspected that it might be the previous master of the Sanctuary.

So Wen Wen had always been looking forward to this day arriving sooner, but at the same time, he was somewhat fearful.

Because he deeply knew that the Remnant Spirits within him, unlike the spirits inside other superpower users, weren’t from the same dimension of existence!

Yet he hadn’t expected that their first conversation would occur during the course of this battle!
