Chapter 743: Demon-Subduing Karmic Flames
Chapter 743: Demon-Subduing Karmic Flames
The Moon of Corrosion member, heavy artilleryman Kurozawa Wagou, flung open his oversized trench coat to reveal the massive black hand cannon on his right arm.
He aimed it directly at Zhang Yi and his group below and opened fire!
The hand cannon condensed a massive beam of energy, targeting Zhang Yi head-on!
Yet the result was like mud oxen entering the sea - the energy attack was instantly absorbed into the Alternate Dimensional Space.
Shinguuji Seiichiro's hands formed seals at speeds too fast to follow, then he swiftly produced dozens of paper talismans.
Amidst swirling smoke, over a dozen enormous Shikigami materialized before him!
Aside from his core five Shikigami, the rest were specially crafted Explosive Demon Dogs designed specifically to counter Zhang Yi!
"His Alternate Dimensional Space has limits. Overload its energy capacity, and his ability becomes useless!"
This intelligence had been recorded in Zhang Yi's personal file at the Jiangnan Region headquarters.
The information originated from a battle about half a year prior, when the Western Mountain Base attacked Zhang Yi's shelter.
Zhang Yi's Alternate Dimensional Space first experienced energy overload from 500kg of TNT explosives.
From then on, the weakness was exposed - his space wasn't bottomless in energy absorption.
This secret had been thoroughly leaked to the Moon of Corrosion by moles within Blizzard City.
However, there was one critical oversight.
The moles didn't know Zhang Yi's power had reached Captain-level.
And the energy capacity limit of his Alternate Dimensional Space was now far beyond its original parameters!
"Attack!"
Shinguuji Seiichiro commanded his Shikigami to assault Zhang Yi!
The pack of Explosive Demon Dogs led the charge.
His strategy was simple - break through Zhang Yi's Dimensional Gate, and Zhang Yi's combat effectiveness would plummet by over 70%! fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Then they could easily finish him off!
Zhang Yi clearly understood their plan.
But Shinguuji Seiichiro was using an overt strategy.
If Zhang Yi didn't use his Dimensional Gate to block, he lacked the personal power to withstand these Shikigami explosions.
Even if he escaped, his companions would be blown to pieces!
"Hua Hua, get clear!"
Zhang Yi waved everyone back and unhesitatingly opened his Dimensional Gate to absorb the Explosive Demon Dogs.
Then he allowed them to detonate within his Alternate Dimensional Space.
Shinguuji Seiichiro's face broke into a triumphant grin.
He had plenty more of these explosive Shikigami in reserve.
For months, he'd been devising ways to counter their most troublesome opponent - Zhang Yi.
But just then, he noticed Zhang Yi's lips slowly curling upward too.
"You really think you've got me figured out?"
Zhang Yi's smile grew increasingly pronounced.
Then he extended his palm toward the Moon of Corrosion empowered individuals.
"Seems your intelligence isn't quite complete."
"I can reflect any form of physical attack."
"And explosive energy counts as a physical form!"
From his palm, the Dimensional Gate suddenly reopened.
All the explosive energy from the absorbed Demon Dogs found its release, transforming into a colossal energy beam that pierced toward the mountainside!
The combined force of over a dozen Explosive Demon Dogs turned the entire battlefield white with its radiance!
This single strike nearly matched the power of Zhang Yi's Condensing the Void technique!
The Moon of Corrosion members paled in terror - a direct hit from this energy would be fatal!
At the critical moment, Phoenixin Ren intercepted the energy beam.
The Phoenix blood within him burned wildly as a gigantic three-headed phoenix apparition manifested behind him.
Facing Zhang Yi's devastating attack, he spread his arms and physically blocked it with his bare body!
"BOOM!!!"
The massive energy wave detonated across the mountain peak, yet Phoenixin Ren absorbed every ounce of impact.
His body nearly disintegrated, clothes incinerated completely to reveal skeletal structure and internal organs.
Then, utilizing his Undying Phoenix ability, his body rapidly regenerated.
But his expression darkened dangerously.
Zhang Yi had reflected Shinguuji Seiichiro's Explosive Demon Dogs back at them - proving their intel on Zhang Yi's abilities contained critical flaws!
They'd assumed Zhang Yi's Alternate Dimensional Space was like a water vat - pour in enough to eventually make it burst.
Instead, it functioned more like a spring.
Unless overloaded beyond its elastic limit in a single attack,
it could simply rebound any absorbed energy within capacity!
Standing naked, Phoenixin Ren glared at Zhang Yi with visible irritation.
Shinguuji massaged his temples in frustration.
"So this is the legendary #1 defensive empowered individual?"
Any ability, when developed to its extreme, manifests terrifying power.
Zhang Yi had focused his research not on offense, but defense.
After witnessing numerous powerful empowered individuals perish, his conviction only grew stronger.
If even elites like Deng Shentong and Yuan Kongye could be killed, what true safety existed in this world?
Only by wrapping tight in his protective measures, stepping cautiously, and avoiding unnecessary risks could one survive this brutal apocalypse.
"This one's mine to handle. Deal with the others," Phoenixin Ren declared gravely.
He glanced at Nishijou Satoru and Takeuchi Mayumi.
"Nishijou, protect Mayumi!"
Nishijou Satoru nodded firmly. "Understood, boss! I'll defend Miss Mayumi with my life if necessary."
Behind him stood ten towering figures shrouded in black cloaks, silent and imposing, radiating sinister power.
Phoenixin Ren turned back toward Zhang Yi on the battlefield and launched himself forward!
Crimson patterns flowed across his skin like liquid blood.
From his fingertips, he fired ten glistening blood pearls toward Zhang Yi.
Each orb pulsed with eerie, writhing sigils.
Mid-flight, they transformed into ten flaming ravens!
"[Demon-Subduing Karmic Flames]!"
Seeing Phoenixin Ren personally attack, Zhang Yi's gaze turned deadly serious.
From Deng Shentong's final intelligence transmission, he knew fragments about Phoenixin Ren's abilities.
But the intel remained incomplete.
Similarly, Phoenixin Ren lacked full understanding of Zhang Yi's capabilities.
In a deathmatch between them, the outcome remained uncertain.
Yet retreat wasn't an option for Zhang Yi here.
If he fled, his companions would face indiscriminate slaughter.
So Zhang Yi chose his strategy - stall!
Phoenixin Ren knew about his spatial abilities yet still attacked with these fire ravens, indicating something unusual about them.
Rather than absorb them into his Alternate Dimensional Space, Zhang Yi opened two consecutive Gates to instantly relocate hundreds of meters away.
But the ten fire ravens pursued relentlessly as if possessing sentience.
They would hunt him to the ends of the earth.
