Chen Tian watched as his own figure and that of the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros vanished simultaneously. Then, a void continuously appeared within the entire blood river. Subsequently, blood water surged back into the void, and upon closer inspection, the blood water was gradually decreasing. Both Chen Tian and the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros were in the blood water, and Chen Tian's expression turned grim. The dragon scales and armor on his arms bore clear cracks. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros had unleashed its full strength in their confrontation, and Chen Tian was clearly at a disadvantage.
Then, Chen Tian brought his arms to his chest, pulled them apart, and instantly a halberd appeared in his hand. The exclusive weapon of the Blood River Asura materialized, and with one hand holding the halberd, he swung it directly, sending a fearsome blade shooting out towards the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. Seeing Chen Tian wield a weapon, the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros swung its fists directly, colliding with the halberd blade. An explosion immediately echoed.
For the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros, its fists and body were its weapons; it needed no others. In its human form, its fists could shatter any weapon.
Chen Tian, seeing the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros effortlessly resist his moves, swung his halberd, twirling it above his head. He then swept it horizontally towards the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. Chen Tian knew he had no advantage in a clash of bare fists, so he opted for a weapon-based confrontation. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's halberd then lunged directly towards its cheek.
The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros spread its hands, reaching its head in front of it, and instantly grabbed Chen Tian's halberd. The blood-red halberd was directly grasped in the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's hand. Then, the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros threw its right fist directly at Chen Tian.
Seeing this, Chen Tian let go of his halberd and spun his body. As he rotated, his legs kicked the halberd, causing it to trace a beautiful arc of light. This arc then swept across the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's left arm, forcing it to release its grip. Chen Tian, by flipping over, evaded the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's attack. He then stabilized his stance, grasped the halberd with his left hand, and thrust it forward. It instantly transformed into a beam of light, rushing towards the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros, caught off guard, was then directly pierced by the blood-red halberd on its armored body. The silver armor displayed a sheen. Chen Tian then pushed the halberd forward, causing the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros to stagger back several steps.
Chen Tian looked at the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros before him, wondering if even the exclusive weapon of the Blood River Asura couldn't break through its armor. This defense was simply too formidable!
Then, the entire blood river slowly flowed into the crystal. Chen Tian's aura gradually weakened, and the halberd in his hand dissipated. The cave reappeared, and Chen Tian looked at the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros laughed heartily, "Kid, without the blood river now, are you still my opponent?"
Time was up, and the blood river was sealed back into the crystal. Chen Tian didn't know why the crystal did this, but he wasn't flustered at all, because the effect of "the more you fight, the stronger you get" had already increased to 200%. Chen Tian's stats had reached the White Blaze level, and his entire set of attributes was replaced with white dots.
Chen Tian unleashed his full aura and confronted the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros head-on. Then, the two elements of divine ice and divine fire slowly coiled around his fists, which he then swung out.
Seeing Chen Tian charging forward, the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros spoke, "Seeking death!"
Without the blood river, Chen Tian was no match for him, yet he attacked first. If he was seeking death, then he would fulfill Chen Tian's wish.
Then, their fists swung out, and instantly the four fists collided. Thunderous roars and shockwaves swept through the entire cave. The surrounding walls shook, and the ground caved in. Both Chen Tian and the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros were forced back.
The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros spoke, "Impossible! The blood river has been sealed, how can you still possess such immense power?"
Chen Tian said nothing. The skill "the more you fight, the stronger you get" was now providing a 230% amplification, and his stats were still increasing. His current attributes were comparable to fifty percent of the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's strength. As long as he continued to fight, it was only a matter of time before Chen Tian surpassed his opponent.
Chen Tian stepped forward, instantly appearing before the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. His fists were entwined with azure wind flow and flames. The wind fueled the flames, causing them to burn fiercely. Wind aiding fire, his fiery fist lunged towards the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros extended its fist, this time using seventy percent of its strength, and they collided instantly.
They were both pushed back again. Chen Tian was shocked that the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's armor could seemingly ignore the burning of the divine fire, as if it had no effect on it.
The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros was bewildered. On the bewildered tree hung the bewildered fruit, beneath the bewildered tree were you and I. He had no idea how Chen Tian possessed such power. In a direct clash of strength, even using seventy percent of his power, it was a draw. This guy was like a war god, his strength seemed to be constantly climbing, the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros could sense it.
Of course, it was normal. Chen Tian had activated a god-level skill!
Chen Tian looked at the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros before him. He estimated he would need to persist for a while before his strength could surpass the boss. However, being able to fight to a draw now, Chen Tian wasn't in a hurry.
Then, the divine fire transformed into twin blades in his hands. Azure wind flow spun around the divine fire blades, and divine ice covered the blades. At the hilt, a white light formed a protective film. Chen Tian injected all his elemental power into the twin blades.
To kill the opponent, he had to break through their defense first. And to break through that defense required immense damage. Even with his White Star level weapons, the damage dealt was less than what elemental weapons could inflict.
Elemental weapons could increase damage infinitely based on the amount of elemental power, making them far superior to normal equipment. However, they had a drawback: they required powerful mastery. Without sufficient mastery, it was impossible to gather elemental power.
Chen Tian's elemental mastery, however, was at the peak of the Monarch level, especially his wind element mastery, which was at the highest tier. He hadn't even heard of that level, but he truly couldn't control it.
The elemental twin blades appeared before the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros. Fear flashed in the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's eyes, and then Chen Tian's figure transformed into a beam of light, rushing directly at the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros.
With a rumble, the ground exploded. From the ground, Chen Tian looked at his surroundings. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros had vanished, but Chen Tian knew it had burrowed underground, and he warily scanned his surroundings.
Then, countless shards of stone erupted from the ground behind Chen Tian, and the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros appeared behind him, swinging its fists. Chen Tian reacted, crossing his hands and the twin blades, and slashed downward.
The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros was repelled and fell to the ground. Chen Tian looked at the surrounding ground. The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros had burrowed into the ground. Chen Tian activated his divine eyes, inspiration surged, and he instantly leaped and performed a backflip, dodging countless silver sand pillars and light orbs.
Chen Tian's divine eyes scanned the ground but still couldn't detect the opponent's trace. Suddenly, the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros opened its palm beneath Chen Tian's feet, and a soil spike shot out, exploding with a roar.
The Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros appeared from underground and looked at the explosion scene. This move should have heavily injured the opponent!
However, to the Blood Forest Giant Rhinoceros's surprise, Chen Tian appeared before it, completely unharmed. Chen Tian curved his lips. He hadn't expected such good fortune; it was truly timely.
Chen Tian didn't know how to describe himself – was he too lucky, or just fortunate? The moment the soil spike exploded, Chen Tian awakened his earth element mastery, and his Elemental Divine Body became immune to earth element attacks. This single soil spike attack caused no damage; it was nullified by Chen Tian.
