Chapter 245: Chapter 115: Changes in Cause and Effect

Under the ferocious thunderous cover of the Moon Shadow Captain, Li Yelai charged into the Insect Swarm, deploying the Divine General Dharma Image!

The Golden Armor giant wielded his long spear with a fighting spirit that soared to the heavens, freely venting his desire to kill!

At the first instance, he attracted a lot of attention from both humans and the Insect Swarm.

The War Worms possessed incredible defensive power and strength, their massive size instilling fear.

Even the sturdiest of combat vehicles could be easily breached by them.

Now, however, the War Worms had met their match as the Golden Armor giant wielded his long spear with vigor.

He knocked the War Worms back, rolling them on the ground and instantly crushing a large number of insects that should have been under their protection.

This boosted the morale of many lines of defense that were struggling in battle!

Immediately afterward, fire support was provided to Li Yelai, causing the large number of Insects that had gathered to attack him to be annihilated.

Li Yelai was testing out his new ability, and the power of the Divine General Dharma Image was strong, matching that of the War Worms!

Even due to the advantage of his body structure and weapons, Li Yelai could suppress the War Worms.

However, slicing through the Defense Armor of the War Worms required some effort from Li Yelai.

Li Yelai raised his hand and performed the Single-handed Eighteen Strokes·Horse Hoof Thunder!

The Dharma Image’s long spear also swung, like a warhorse charging, with consecutive chops like rolling thunder.

Yet, it could only leave deep marks on the War Worms, and after continuous suppression, Li Yelai finally pierced its armor. The long spear thrust directly into its chest!

"The power is great, but if I use Weakness Perception, I could break through the armor even faster," Li Yelai contemplated his tactics.

In the brief battle, Li Yelai recognized the characteristics and weaknesses of the Divine General Dharma Image.

Naturally, the characteristic was strength—the Dharma Image possessed almost ten times the strength of Li Yelai!

He had already surpassed the Four Awakenings True Martial Path Spiritual Ability Users, focusing on the principle of overpowering all techniques with strength!

He could smash to death any Advanced Insect Race other than those specialized in defensive like the War Worms!

But since Li Yelai was not from the True Martial Path, he lacked other True Martial Abilities.

Thus, currently, Li Yelai could only engage in close combat.

Like the Shock Stepping Wave from the True Martial Path, if Li Yelai knew how to use this, releasing it with the Dharma Image would probably shock an entire swarm of Insects to death!

Like the Inner Strength from the True Martial Path, ten times strengthened Inner Strength Impact wouldn’t even need to slice open the War Worm’s Defense Armor, the sheer force would be enough to damage its internal organs!

This was the limitation of his abilities.

Currently, Li Yelai could only engage in close combat.

The weakness was the drastic consumption of Spiritual Energy.

The Spiritual Energy needed to activate and maintain the Dharma Image was terrifying.

Moreover, the Dharma Image was similar to a type of Spiritual Barrier, when attacked, Li Yelai would use Spiritual Energy to repair the Dharma Image’s damages.

If the Dharma Image was swarmed by Insects, just the consumption of Spiritual Energy would drain Li Yelai.

Thus, realizing that he had been attacked and had consumed much more Spiritual Energy than anticipated,

Li Yelai immediately activated Mimicry·Abyss Dragon Scale!

The instinct of a warrior, stacking armor, passed!

As long as the Insect Swarm couldn’t penetrate my defense, the Dharma Image wouldn’t be damaged, there would be no need for Spiritual Energy repairs, and thus no consumption of Spiritual Energy!

In an instant, the Divine General Dharma Image was covered with golden scales, appearing even more domineering and heroic!

But the consequence of this was that Li Yelai’s consumption of Spiritual Energy became even greater.

Merely defeating one War Worm consumed fifty percent of Li Yelai’s Spiritual Energy.

Just activating the Abyss Dragon Scale consumed twenty percent of the Spiritual Energy.

There’s no way to sustain a long battle!

Li Yelai understood his ability’s shortcomings.

Three Faces: Xiang Yu, Huo Qubing, Li Yuanba.

In terms of strength, naturally, the Dharma Image brought about by Li Yuanba’s Face was the strongest!

But when breaking armor just now, it was entirely relying on brute force to knock open the armor.

If using Xiang Yu’s Face, Li Yelai wouldn’t even need much strength to crack the armor.

Simultaneously, in terms of speed and defense, the Dharma Image was inferior to Huo Qubing’s Shadow Army ability.

Every face had its characteristics, but they could not be used simultaneously.

If he could have Weakness Perception and the Shadow Army at the same time, using the Dharma Image to augment...

"Too bad, I wonder if there will ever be an opportunity to use multiple Faces’ abilities simultaneously," Li Yelai thought to himself.

He controlled the Dharma Image to face the second approaching High-ranking Insect Race.

It was a Hunting Insect!

Li Yelai was not the strongest or the most conspicuous Spiritual Ability User on the battlefield. Although the Divine General Dharma Image appeared huge and heroic, it was hardly noticeable across the entire battlefield.

Some Spiritual Ability Users created mini tornadoes sweeping through the Insect Swarm, while others unleashed Heavenly Fire Phoenix.

But some kind of force had guided this member of the Insect Race to him.

You Must Meet Strong Enemies was triggering.

The Hunting Insect swiftly pounced towards the Dharma Image. However, a heavy bolt of thunder struck,

Directly knocking the Hunting Insect from mid-air!

The person who took action was none other than the Moon Shadow Captain, the prey was hooked, then begun the hunt!

And within the defenses, Jing Lin, leaning against a bunker, stared at the Golden Armor giant emerging on Li Yelai’s body, his eyes widening in astonishment.

"This is... the Divine General Dharma Image!"

Jing Lin’s voice trembled, his words full of disbelief, "Is this Night General’s new ability? He can even mimic this!"

He and Li Yelai had some interaction and got along quite well.

Although he hadn’t directly asked, Li Yelai had revealed some things, so he had more or less understood that Li Yelai possessed two Faces.

Both from the rare abilities of the Spiritual Eyes Path and Netherworld Path.

Especially that Weakness Perception!

Under the Heavy Pupil, any defense would be broken!

As a member of the Spiritual Eyes Path, Jing Lin naturally envied this. Who in the Spiritual Eyes Path wouldn’t want such an ability?
