Chapter 190: Surrender if You Can’t Win
“Ascend, don’t get attacked!”
Yi Chen instructed Bai Ruo Xin as he flew out of the stone house.
He chased after the swamp crocodile while controlling the spiritual sword, diving into the swamp.
The swamp crocodile was very fast, but it couldn’t match Yi Chen and the flying sword.
Clang!
Sensing the flying sword approaching again, the swamp crocodile swung its tail.
Its elongated tail acted like a huge hammer, knocking the lightning-fast flying sword away.
The spiritual sword was unharmed, but the swamp crocodile’s tail also had no scratches.
Yi Chen realized that the flying sword alone couldn’t deal with the swamp crocodile.
At least, just one flying sword was not enough to handle the swamp crocodile.
He called the spiritual sword back to his hand.
Swish, swish, swish…
The next moment, he swung his sword continuously.
Sword Energy cut towards the swamp crocodile again and again.
The swamp crocodile was taken aback.
It sensed an extremely dangerous aura from these sword energies.
Every sword energy was no weaker than the previous flying sword.
But there was only one flying sword.
These sword energies, however, came in an endless stream.
Bang, bang, bang…
As it fled, the swamp crocodile sprayed black water arrows, trying to intercept the unavoidable sword energies.
The black water arrows collided with the sword energies in mid-air, producing astonishing explosive sounds and energy.
Around them, the wind howled, and the aquatic plants all bent down.
Both sides chased after each other!
…
“Wow, it’s no wonder it’s a Level 70 fierce beast! Yi Chen’s sword energy is faster and more powerful than during the eighth level of the Spirit Consciousness stage, increasing by at least several dozen times.”
“Yet, it’s all being blocked by the swamp crocodile’s water arrows.”
“Not only that, according to the information provided by the intelligence, the swamp crocodile’s defense is absurdly high. It can fend off Yi Chen’s sword energy attacks with just its defense, without even needing to use the water arrows to intercept.”
“It should be said that Yi Chen truly deserves his reputation. He is now at the first level of the Spirit Law stage. In terms of realm, he is comparable to fierce beasts around level 60.”
“However, he is now chasing the swamp crocodile. Although this swamp crocodile is as timid as a mouse, only knowing how to sneak attack and flee, even with a counterattack, it still poses no threat to Yi Chen.”
“Now that the sword energy cannot deal with the swamp crocodile, it’s time for the Method of All Laws!”
The viewers in the live room expressed their admiration nonstop.
As they anticipated, the swamp crocodile successfully forced out the strongest sword energy attack of the Heaven-Slashing Technique.
The flying sword, while equally powerful as the sword energy and able to track the enemy like an extension of one’s arm, was still just one flying sword.
Each had its advantages and disadvantages.
When facing the swamp crocodile, the continuous threat of sword energy was undoubtedly greater.
…
On the swamp, both sides continued to chase after each other.
Yi Chen’s sword energy struck much more frequently than the swamp crocodile’s attacks.
Therefore, although the swamp crocodile reacted extremely quickly, it occasionally got hit by the sword energy.
However, those sword energies, when they cut into the swamp crocodile, only left light sword marks on its tough shell.
Rumble!
In the muddy swamp, seeing it could not shake off Yi Chen’s pursuit, the swamp crocodile grew furious.
It let out a deep, angry roar from its throat.
With its wide mouth open, a black water curtain swept towards Yi Chen.
This black water curtain kept thinning and expanding, like a rapidly enlarging mirror.
Its coverage went from several dozen square meters to hundreds, then thousands of square meters.
Yi Chen quickly ascended to a height of two to three hundred meters.
Only then did the black water curtain lose its momentum and fall down below.
Looking back at the swamp crocodile, it had vanished without a trace.
Yi Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless; during this outing, he had already killed more than twenty fierce beasts.
This was the first time he encountered a beast so powerful yet so cautious.
Such a strong attacking method was surprisingly only used to push him away for an escape.
He had no choice but to search again.
Yi Chen clearly did not intend to give up just like that.
The swamp crocodile’s territory was not large, only ten thousand square kilometers.
But even the smallest mosquito is still a morsel.
That ten thousand square kilometers could give him an extra 0.01 times talent bonus.
More importantly, a powerful beast that did not submit was a significant threat to humanity at this stage.
His divine consciousness opened to its fullest.
Once again, he soared above the swamp.
For other enemies, the swamp crocodile might have made them feel helpless, forcing them to retreat.
But Yi Chen was clearly an exception.
Although the swamp crocodile hid in the mud and created no ripples in the surrounding muck, water plants, or bushes, it was completely exposed before Yi Chen’s divine consciousness.
In just over ten minutes, Yi Chen rediscovered the swamp crocodile.
He was a cautious and careful person.
When facing an enemy, he preferred to keep his trump cards hidden, delivering a decisive blow at critical moments.
However, there was no doubt that the swamp crocodile was even more cautious than he was.
This powerful fierce beast did not use its trump cards to kill enemies but rather to protect its own escape.
In fact, that black water wave might just be one of the swamp crocodile’s backup plans.
Under such circumstances, not wanting to let the swamp crocodile escape again, Yi Chen decided to take a different approach.
He waved his hand.
A silver light shot out from his storage ring.
With a thought, energy surged in the sky, and dark clouds gathered, blocking the sun.
A massive lightning bolt began to charge rapidly.
The swamp crocodile was startled.
What the heck!
After fighting for so long, this enemy still has other attacking methods?
The level of sneakiness is completely on par with my own.
Meeting a worthy opponent, it’s time to run!
It flicked its tail, and its massive body moved like a slippery loach, quickly weaving through the mud.
The silver light, however, was like a maggot burrowing in bone, closely following after it.
Above, the immense lightning grew stronger and stronger.
Finally, after gathering its power, Yi Chen gently waved his hand towards a spot a few meters in front of the swamp crocodile.
That lightning, now over a meter in diameter, seemed to have a will of its own, crashing down in the direction Yi Chen pointed.
The swamp crocodile was taken aback and quickly swayed its tail, forcing a change in direction to avoid the lightning.
Boom!
The lightning struck down, landing only six or seven meters away from it.
The terrifying electricity rapidly spread in all directions.
Although the swamp crocodile was incredibly fast, it could not match the speed of the electrical current.
Its massive, flat body shook and twitched violently under the impact of the current.
The muscles inside its body completely curled and stiffened as if it were cramping.
Its head buzzed with noise.
Thoughts became chaotic.
The relentless silver light instantly caught up, continuously extending and wrapping around the body of the swamp crocodile.
It was the Binding Immortal Rope.
Above, Yi Chen smiled slightly.
Just as he expected, this swamp crocodile had thick skin and strong defenses that could withstand even Sword Energy.
However, it might not be able to endure magical attacks.
By merely testing with a lightning attack, he had discovered the swamp crocodile’s weakness.
He waved his hand again.
Another powerful bolt of lightning gathered and brewed in midair.
He could instantly unleash ordinary lightning, but he knew that with the swamp crocodile’s strength, the effect would be minimal.
Below, the swamp crocodile finally recovered.
It tried to struggle and found that it could escape the Binding Immortal Rope, but it would take time.
By the time it freed itself, the lightning would inevitably strike down again.
With a gritted jaw, it suddenly shed its outer skin.
Its body shot out from the Binding Immortal Rope.
All that remained wrapped in the rope was a thin layer of crocodile skin.
"A good number of escape methods!"
Yi Chen clicked his tongue.
Unfortunately, his Method of All Laws, after being modified, was similarly powerful.
Seeing the swamp crocodile beginning to flee, he followed closely.
He ensured that the swamp crocodile remained within the range of his divine consciousness.
The lightning that was still charging lost its spirit power supply, but it continued to absorb the surrounding spirit energy, growing stronger all on its own.
Its speed was just a bit slower.
Rumble…
The Binding Immortal Rope chased from behind.
Above, Yi Chen followed closely.
Higher up, the might of the lightning continued to strengthen.
The swamp crocodile roared in anger.
Without any hesitation, it turned to face Yi Chen, lying flat in the mud.
It showed an attitude of surrender, ready to give up the fight.
