But… it’s still not enough…
Petrei’s turtle shell was something Jin Taiguang had also faced before.
Petrei’s ability to counter fist and kick techniques was immense, easily dissipating force and filling gaps.
He knew all too well that in that state, Lin Ran wouldn’t have been able to break through without resorting to the spatial tears he had previously unleashed.
Hmm? Wait? Why were the colors on him still changing?
It wasn’t just him; all the contestants outside the arena who were concerned about the situation within felt it too.
Where was this power coming from?
Everyone was bewildered.
As for Lin Ran, the initiator, he naturally knew exactly where this power originated.
That layer of green light gradually emanating from his body was the effect of his innate Natural Spirit Body talent!
With a comprehensive increase in his physical attributes, Lin Ran’s Natural Spirit Body had awakened even more formidable power.
One of its abilities was to utilize his near-inexhaustible life force to amplify all his attributes…
As the green light completely enveloped Lin Ran’s body and fused with the golden hue of his Golden Dragon True Body, Lin Ran’s blood qi and magic surged to unprecedented levels.
Although Lin Ran’s move surprised the spectators deeply once again, it still led them to involuntarily ponder…
If they intended to break through Petrei’s defenses with brute force head-on, would this be enough?
As if hearing their thoughts, Lin Ran looked at Petrei, who had layered countless light barriers around himself in the air, and chuckled:
“Old Pei… judging by the hardness of your turtle shell, relying solely on the amplification of all attributes and life source power is still not quite enough…”
“Without optimizing your output and penetration points, it’s still of little significance.”
“So, what do you think of this move?”
With that said, without giving Petrei a chance to question or inquire, Lin Ran casually drew out two long swords.
Cursed Sword – Datherting!
Sword of Victory – Dawn of Ruin!
There was no doubt about the offensive and penetration effects of these two divine artifacts.
However, Lin Ran hadn’t summoned them this time to be the output end, but rather…
Haki Enchantment!
Under Lin Ran’s urging, Armament Haki quickly wrapped around the two weapons like a persistent shadow.
Before anyone could understand what Lin Ran was up to, he flipped the blades of the two swords downwards and actually snapped them in half!
What was he doing?! What kind of situation was this, breaking his own arms?!
Before those who were about to leap up in shock could cry out, Lin Ran, with his swift actions, initiated his next move.
The broken Sword of Victory and Cursed Sword did not droop in Lin Ran’s hands. Instead, under the influence of a mysterious power, they began to melt into liquid.
A Knight Does Not Perish Empty-Handed!
This was also a brand new effect of Lin Ran’s awakening and upgrade of this ability.
With the power of this special treasure, Lin Ran could perform special modifications on any utensil he possessed that was endowed with the meaning of "weapon."
And what was currently happening was one of them.
Of course, one of the prerequisites for using this ability was Armament Haki.
Melting Infusion!
With the assistance of Armament Haki, the liquefied Sword of Victory and Cursed Sword flowed onto Lin Ran’s left and right hands respectively. They gradually took shape on his hands, transforming into a pair of black and white gauntlets.
With the enhancement of these two divine gauntlets, Lin Ran’s strength reached another qualitative leap.
Let alone the surging blood qi and magic that were like a swallowing mountain, just the sharp pressure, so intense that it could cut people with its aura alone, was enough to make one panic.
Of course, this was not the greatest significance of Lin Ran’s action…
Its greatest significance lay in that through this move, Lin Ran’s Natural Spirit Body, which was only missing two attributes, light and darkness, was directly compensated!
And with the final attribute filled, it meant that Lin Ran could form a near-perfect state of chaos condensation and circulation within his body…
With this power, Lin Ran, not to mention dodging Petrei as if he were cutting through tofu, could at least break through his defenses without any problem.
As long as Lin Ran was willing to squander his magic power.
Of course, when it came to squandering magic power, there was probably no one in the entire world who was more generous than Lin Ran…
Petrei instantly realized the terrifying change occurring in Lin Ran’s body. Although he couldn’t grasp what exactly had happened, his years of combat experience brought him an instinct that made his right eyelid twitch incessantly.
“Scared already? Too bad it’s not over yet!”
“Let me show you the terror of me stacking it all up!”
Lin Ran said, and with a mighty gesture, he summoned both hands towards the sky.
First, various buffs that could strengthen himself!
Golden Dragon Bloodlust!
Spirit Body Enhancement!
Amaterasu Wings!
Shinnei Enchantment!
…
Then, the remaining divine artifacts were further melted and infused!
Bone of the Holy Immortal · Indra’s Thunder, melted! Transformed into a pendant hanging around his neck!
Scythe Divine Sword · Blade of Undying Slaughter, melted! Transformed into a scabbard that enhanced his penetration ability, slung across his back!
Anti-Demon Armament · Golden Armor, melted! Transformed into a faint golden skin, greatly amplifying all types of resistance and rendering him immune to low-attribute threats!
Great God’s Declaration · Spear of Destiny, melted! Transformed into nine slender, spiral-arrowed, large arrows, temporarily falling into the scabbard behind him.
Absolute Defense · Shield of the Gods, melted! Transformed into a self-driving arm guard to enhance arm strength, attached to Lin Ran’s forearm.
Anti-God Armament · Heavenly Chain, melted! Transformed into a dark golden bowstring with mysterious runes, temporarily floating in the air…
After Lin Ran had completely finished all these preparatory tasks, he cast his gaze towards Petrei in front of him.
His eyes, filled with pity and arrogance, were like those of a hunter looking at a doomed prey.
With the final activation of the Ring of Souls, the weapon that Lin Ran would use as his main attacker, rather than for melting and strengthening, finally appeared in his hands.
Piercing Heaven · True · Nine Lives Shot!
However, what was different from last time was that there were no bowstring or arrows on this Nine Lives Shot, clearly because Lin Ran had temporarily discarded them.
The reason Lin Ran did this was naturally because he had prepared better equipment for the Nine Lives Shot…
Trinity, combine for me!
The next moment, the bowstring formed by the Heavenly Chain and the arrows divided from the Spear of Destiny were all mounted onto the Nine Lives Shot!
“Come on, let me show you the strongest me in my normal state!”
