The method that was said to have no chance of verification was actually not complicated and had considerable feasibility.
To put it simply, it is to use the trick of phantom body and devouring to catch An Ya off guard, devour as much gray fog as possible in the shortest time, and then use the divine power to forcibly break through the second-level status.
Once he breaks through to the second-class level, Xu Chong will have the capital to challenge the first-class level.
Even if he is not an opponent of Anyi, as long as he has some room to maneuver, he can continue to devour and improve himself in the same way.
Unfortunately, there is a significant deviation between reality and expectations.
Jin Donglai meant well but ended up doing something bad, and ended up wasting his precious treasure, the Exiled Sky.
Without the ability to escape into the air, Xu Chong would not be able to create a sufficient distance between himself and An Ya.
If you can't keep a distance, there won't be enough time to prepare.
If there is not enough time, the number of phantoms cannot increase.
The fewer phantom bodies there are, the less spiritual energy you can gain per unit time.
In short, one wrong step will lead to all wrong steps.
As a result of the chain reaction, the final harvest was only more than 300 divine essences, which was not enough to advance to a higher level.
Of course, Xu Chong had no intention of blaming Jin Donglai. After all, the latter meant well. If anyone was to blame anyone, he could only blame himself for not making it clear in advance.
The most important thing right now is how to find or create a glimmer of hope from a desperate situation.
"In the real space, the Void can actually gather its body in this way. It is countless times faster than in the Great Ruins..."
Xu Chong calmly looked at the still expanding Dark Shore, thinking quickly in his mind, "Although the principle is unknown, this is definitely not an enhancement."
"There must be some ability that is suppressed by the real space."
"This point must be explored..."
Xu Chong made up his mind.
At this time, the Dark Ya below had completed the condensation of all its parts and transformed into a huge monster over ten thousand feet tall.
"Little ghost, do you dare to show up now?"
An Ya looked around with an extremely mocking expression, "I guess you don't dare."
"But it doesn't matter whether you show up or not."
"Inside this space, you are no match for me. Outside this space, my other half is surrounding you."
"As long as I completely devour this space, I will naturally be able to find you."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"I'll give you that back."
The huge monster waved its arms and said arrogantly: "Your ending was doomed from the beginning!"
In this regard, Xu Chong was not only unmoved, but also had already realized something.
The next moment, an invisible phantom walked out, broke through the air and landed on the ground thousands of feet away from the dark cliff.
——Bang!
The phantom body scattered into points of light.
"!!!"
High in the sky, Xu Chong's pupils suddenly shrank into needle points.
There is no doubt that the phantom body was broken up by An Ya.
But this speed...
Almost at the moment when the phantom body walked out of the passage, Anya's body and fist arrived first .
From a visual point of view, it looks like Huan is rushing to his death.
"Your grasp of the rules of space is so poor, yet you can burst out at a speed faster than me operating the power of space?"
Xu Chong's expression was extremely ugly, "No, it's more than that..."
In addition to speed, there were two other aspects that were far beyond his expectations.
One is perception.
His phantom body remained invisible under the authority of light throughout the entire process from the time it was created until it was broken up by external forces.
If it was Daxu, as long as it was not shrouded in gray fog, An Ya would definitely not be able to detect his presence in such a short time.
And now, An Ya's perception has become more than just a level sharper?
There is another one, intensity.
Although the phantom body collapsed, the feeling of being shattered in an instant still fed back to me.
That indestructible touch proved that An Ya's current state was as strong as his original body.
What is the concept?
Xu Chong's physical strength was achieved through the special training system of the Tianxuan Realm.
First, he was elevated from the Golden Body Realm to the Nine-Transformation Immortal Essence, and then he received another huge improvement due to his promotion in status.
It is equivalent to two complete transformations.
It is no exaggeration to say that no matter whether people in the Five Spirit Realm practice or not, or what level their realm is, three hundred million people combined cannot compare to him.
The extremely strong body created by so many coincidences was now easily achieved by a void.
"Perception, strength, speed, these are the known improvements, but we don't know how much more there is to come."
Xu Chong calmed down, "But is this really an improvement?"
Three more phantom bodies appeared and flew away into the sky.
This time, three phantoms appeared in different locations.
Bang!
Bang!
The two phantom bodies exploded.
An Ya appeared where the second phantom was standing and taunted loudly: "Come on, continue. This master hasn't played games for a long time."
“It is true.”
Xu Chong turned a deaf ear to An Ya's ridicule and focused his attention on the last phantom.
The three phantom bodies he released had different arrangements.
The first one was two thousand feet away from An Yai and was not invisible, so it was instantly dispersed.
The second one was five thousand feet away from An Ya's initial position and remained invisible. After the first phantom disappeared, it was noticed by An Ya because the distance was shortened to three thousand feet, and was soon dispersed.
The third phantom body was not invisible either. It was ten thousand feet away from An Ya's initial position. After the second phantom body dissipated, the relative distance was five thousand feet.
An Ya ignored this phantom.
"So, his perception ability has nothing to do with the vertical eye, and the range is only above three thousand feet and below five thousand feet..."
There was a gleam of light in Xu Chong's eyes, and he completely understood An Ya's changes.
In the Great Ruins, no matter what status one is in, the range of perception of nothingness is extremely exaggerated.
Wherever the body is scattered, the thought can instantly arrive and cover an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of miles in radius.
Not to mention, the perception ability radiates with thoughts as the center, and theoretically can extend beyond the edge of the gray fog and extend tens of thousands of miles away again.
This can be seen from Saro, and as a first-class person, Anyi will only be stronger.
But now, the perception range of Dark Ya has been reduced to less than five thousand feet.
What does this mean?
This means that the Dark Abyss that has a physical body has not had its abilities enhanced but rather compressed.
Because of the compression, the physical strength is extremely high, resulting in an exaggerated explosive speed.
Also because of the compression, the invisible phantom can be instantly detected without being covered by gray fog.
Although it seems that this is no different from becoming stronger, Xu Chong already knows what to do.
This is just the method...
A sinister look flashed in Xu Chong's eyes. He left behind more than ten phantom bodies and could travel ten thousand miles in one step.
After a moment.
A huge picture like a projection slowly opened not far from the dark shore.
This movement was not concealed at all, so it was naturally captured by An Ya in an instant.
"The authority of light?"
An Ya's heart tightened.
All nihilistic individuals will have an instinctive rejection and disgust towards the authority of light.
Even the first-class status is no exception.
"Dark Edge, huh?"
Xu Chong's face appeared in the picture with a faint smile, "I admit that you are very strong, and I also admit that I am no match for you now, but if you want to avoid being devoured by me, you can only maintain your current state."
"So what? Once I eat up this space, you won't be able to escape."
An Ya pressed down with one arm, pried up a large piece of the ground as if cutting iron and mud, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it vigorously.
"Don't you realize..."
Xu Chong showed a surprised expression, "Are you eating too slowly now?"
"Slow? Hahahaha... They say that the human race in reality is the most intelligent race in the entire Daxu. Now I have my doubts."
An Ya seemed to have heard the funniest joke, "Even if it's slow, even if it takes a long time to catch you, so what? Time is something that only you who are real will care about."
"Really?"
Xu Chong did not comment.
The next moment, the camera zoomed out rapidly, encompassing the entire environment he was in.
"!!!"
An Ya's chewing movement suddenly froze.
There is a mountain in the picture.
From the foot of the mountain to the top, it was crowded with people with the same faces.
And the huge mountain occupied by these people is melting rapidly ...
Yes, ablation.
A dissolution that is much faster, more thorough, and cleaner than Dark Abyss's devouring.
“You deserve to die!”
An Ya was furious and picked up a piece of ground and smashed it hard.
Unfortunately, how could the projection created by the authority of light be destroyed by a solid object?
The ground passes through the picture without any suspense.
In just ten or so breaths, half of the huge mountain had melted away.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it turns out that a first-class person would also behave like a vicious dog in protecting his food."
Xu Chong's face reoccupies the screen. "Well, how much of this real space do you think you can consume at your speed?"
"What if I give you all of it?"
An Ya sneered, "As long as you don't leave, everything will be mine in the end."
"Um?"
Xu Chong's expression was filled with surprise and disdain. "You know that I am a virtual and real person, but you don't know that I can also increase my strength by eating real things?"
"What's the meaning……"
An Ya's heart sank and he had a bad feeling.
"Literally."
Xu Chong looked around, "After all, this space was once the Huantian. Although it has degraded a bit, it should be enough for me to be promoted to the first-class status."
"puff……"
An Ya couldn't help laughing out loud, "First-class status? How dare you say that... Do you know what it takes to be promoted to the first-class status? Do you know how long it took me to be promoted to the first-class status? You are just a small ant, how dare you say that."
"Vacancy, strength, and authority."
Xu Chong said nonchalantly, "Let's not talk about the vacancies. You, Xuwu, know the real situation best. As for strength, you can naturally gain it in the process of consuming this space. As for authority..."
“Twenty percent!”
An Ya answered proudly, "Twenty percent of authority, do you know what this means? Even if you have a way to steal the rules, you can't steal twenty percent in such a short time..."
"Is this what you are talking about?"
Xu Chong smiled faintly.
The picture zooms out again.
At this time, the huge mountain had completely disappeared, and the many phantom bodies no longer existed.
In the entire picture, Xu Chong is the only one standing with his hands behind his back, with a large bare and smooth surface behind him.
"What? Nothing..."
As soon as An Ya had doubts, he suddenly saw an incredible scene.
The bare ground behind Xu Chong began to grow wildly!
Yes, growth!
The mountain that had completely disappeared reappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye!
And it’s not just the mountains!
Flowers, trees, mountain springs...
All the original scenes were restored in the blink of an eye as the mountain grew.
"I have a lot of authority, but unfortunately, only 20% of the Five Elements authority has been achieved."
Xu Chong shook his head regretfully.
Apart from shaking his head and talking, he didn't even move a finger from beginning to end.
A majestic mountain grew peacefully behind him.
“…”
An Ya was no longer able to speak.
Even though the five elements rules were almost useless in the barren ruins, he had lived for an extremely long time after all, and had some understanding of them.
He didn't know how many of the Five Elements rules he needed to master in order to create a mountain out of thin air in such a short period of time, but it must be more than 20%.
But the problem is...
Twenty percent???
How is it possible to have 20%???
How long has this virtual and real person lived to be able to steal 20% of the rules? ? ?
A series of questions appeared in Anya's mind.
"Okay, that's all I have to say."
Xu Chong waved his hand, as if to say goodbye, "Wait for me, wait for me to break through to the first level... Well, if a first-level person eats another first-level person, I wonder if I can break through to a whole new level?"
As soon as the words fell, the picture disappeared in the wind.
“…”
An Ya instinctively thought in the direction of Xu Chong's painting, and then he was frightened.
You know your own situation.
In this state, he really doesn't have to worry about any existence in this space, that is, the cunning virtual and real entity has never appeared in its original form, otherwise he would have been taken down in one encounter.
But everything has its pros and cons.
Gained strength, lost swallowing efficiency, and perception range.
If he continues in this state, it will be difficult for him to find Xu Chong in such a huge space.
Naturally, he could only allow Xu Chong to get ahead of him and swallow up most of the truth.
But is such a large space really enough for Xu Chong to be promoted to the first-class status?
The answer is absolutely enough.
Because he himself swallowed several large pieces of Ring Sky Fragments, which allowed him to grow to the peak of the second class, and then he could continue to be promoted after reaching the standard of authority.
The total size of those few fragments of the sky ring is at most only half of this space, and the nutrients they contain are far less.
"If he really swallowed up most of this space, wouldn't he be able to be promoted to the first-class status immediately?"
"First-class status..."
"He is now at the third level and can devour my body. If he really reaches the first level, won't I be dead?"
An Ya stood frozen in place, feeling extremely complicated.
I was shocked and scared, angry and hateful, and at the same time, I felt extremely unwilling.
You know, he almost racked his brains to trick Yifeng into helping him and get such a powerful opportunity from Hantian.
After finding the target, I discovered that in addition to the expected benefits, there is actually such a huge and advanced real space.
Two big pieces of extremely delicious food...
This is the first time I have come across such a great opportunity in my entire life.
If I retreat like this, I'm afraid I'll live in regret all the time in the future.
"No, I can't leave!"
An Ya was furious in his heart, "There must be another chance, there must be some method I haven't thought of..."
