Chapter 45: Temporarily Shaking Off The Trouble
“Be careful, Passenger Welt, Pamu.” Pamu said with concern.
The diamond-shaped red shield blocked the Asura God King’s attack, as effortless as facing the Bloody God.
As the Asura God King made his move, the other gods also attacked the Stellar Train one after another, various attacks rushing toward the Stellar Train from all directions.
“Time-Space Distortion.”
Welt pointed his cane toward the Stellar Train, enveloping the area within ten li around the Stellar Train in a distorting force field. All attacks aimed at the train had their directions twisted, grazing past the train.
Pamu was startled by the overwhelming attacks and hurriedly activated the train. With the help of Welt’s distorting force field, it passed through the crowd of gods and sped away.
“Draw a line to trap them.”
Welt made his move again, immobilizing all the gods who wanted to pursue in place. Although it lasted only a few seconds, it was enough for the Stellar Train to vanish from their sight.
The Asura God King was very displeased that Welt dared to be distracted by other things while fighting him. His offensive grew even fiercer, unfolding the killing Divine Realm and breaking Welt’s Time-Space Distortion.
Welt spread his hands, countless high-tech guns and cannons manifesting behind him, enhanced by Imaginary Energy, unleashing a torrent of firepower.
“Mere parlor tricks.” The Asura God King slashed with his divine sword, a shield blocking various shells, lasers, plasma beams, and more.
Ripples appeared on the shield, looking like it could shatter at any moment.
The Asura God King flickered a few times and appeared behind Welt. The manifested weapons were shattered by a single sword strike, instantly silenced and reduced to a pile of scrap metal.
Welt activated the Herrscher Power to drive the “Mimicked Star of Eden,” a black-red Gravity Torrent engulfing the Asura God King.
However, Welt had no intention of injuring him, so he held back. The Gravity Torrent’s power was limited; the Asura God King endured this attack, merely consuming a large amount of Divine Power without injury.
A sword qi broke through the Gravity Torrent, flying straight toward Welt.
Welt suddenly thought that he hadn’t used his Martial Spirit in reality yet; now was a perfect opportunity to test it out.
The Martial Spirit provided basically no enhancement to Welt’s strength, but using it as a toy was quite impressive.
The Martial Spirit System was much weaker than Destiny, but just because it was weak, was it not worth experiencing and understanding?
Was there any problem with traveling to another place to experience the local specialties?
Dismissing weaker things just because one was strong was too arrogant.
Regardless of strength, anything one did not understand was worth pioneering, exploring, and understanding.
Welt released his Martial Spirit and simultaneously activated Martial Spirit True Body. A mecha four to fifty meters tall instantly enveloped him!
“Bang!”
The Asura God King’s sword qi struck the mecha, leaving only a scratch before dissipating.
Welt, in the cockpit, rarely showed a hint of excitement on his steady face.
“Form shift, heavy armor type!”
The tall mecha rapidly changed, with increased and thickened armor. Mobility decreased, output capability decreased, but Defensive Power greatly improved.
“AT Force Field, activate.”
A warm white polygonal light barrier enveloped the mecha.
Defense maxed out; aside from the Asura God King, the other gods’ attacks, weakened by the AT Force Field, couldn’t even leave a mark on the mecha.
Without using other abilities besides the Martial Spirit to assist, the heavy armor type mecha’s attack power wasn’t strong. Aside from making the Level 1 Gods disheveled, it caused no casualties.
After a stalemate of over ten minutes, Welt suddenly stopped controlling the mecha, allowing the Asura God King’s attacks to land on it unimpeded.
The Asura God King had already unleashed his full strength, plus enhancements from the other gods. This sword strike actually cleaved most of the armor on the mecha’s chest.
The Asura God King was overjoyed; he had finally broken through this turtle shell and was about to press the attack when the massive mecha vanished instantly.
It turned out that Welt had stopped controlling the mecha earlier to sense the Realm Anchor on the train using Pioneer Power, then teleported directly back to the train!
The joy on the Asura God King’s face froze instantly, then turned ashen.
The subordinate gods exchanged glances.
“What are you standing around for? All of you, go find it!” the Asura God King roared in fury.
After sending the subordinate gods to search again for the Stellar Train’s whereabouts, the Asura God King returned to the God Realm.
Welt’s final disappearance was clearly a teleportation method. He planned to borrow a subordinate god from the God King of Life, the God of Space, to interfere with his teleportation.
Additionally, he planned to make a trip to Douluo Continent to retrieve the Asura Divine Sword stored in the Legacy site.
As a super divine artifact, the Asura Divine Sword could greatly enhance the Asura God King’s strength.
Because Welt hadn’t gone for the kill, the Asura God King, who had taken multiple direct hits from Welt without serious injury, misjudged Welt’s strength, thinking he was merely skilled at defense.
As long as he used the Asura Divine Sword, he could easily break his defense and capture him. The Asura God King was mysteriously confident.
Douluo Continent, Spirit City.
Meng Huaifeng, March 7th, Star, and Zhu Zhuqing were shopping on the street.
As for Dan Heng, he had taken two little kids with dragon horns to Xingdou Forest, saying he had some personal matters to handle, telling them to play on their own without taking them along.
“Too much! Dan Heng actually ditched us to play by himself.”
March 7th viciously bit into a snack she had just bought, puffing her cheeks, indignant.
“I’ve already complained to Uncle Yang. When Dan Heng comes back, I’ll make sure he pays!” Star curled her lip, looking very smug.
“What did Uncle Yang say?” Meng Huaifeng asked.
Star pouted disappointingly: “Uncle Yang said they’re encountering some trouble now and can’t come back to us in the short term. He told us to have fun and resolve any conflicts ourselves.”
“What trouble did Uncle Yang run into?” March 7th was startled, painfully swallowing the food in her mouth, and hurriedly asked.
“I don’t know. Uncle Yang didn’t say, just that it’s not a big problem and we shouldn’t worry.” Star scratched her head.
“What could trouble Uncle Yang in this world except those gods from the God Realm? He said they won’t come back to us soon, probably worried those gods would notice us and cause trouble.” Meng Huaifeng rubbed his chin in speculation.
“Can Uncle Yang handle it? Come to think of it, I haven’t seen Uncle Yang go all out yet.” March 7th said worriedly.
“Don’t worry. Not having seen him go all out just proves Uncle Yang’s strength is immeasurable.” Meng Huaifeng comforted.
“A mere God King is not even half as good as Uncle Yang.” Star boasted boldly, though Meng Huaifeng thought she was right.
March 7th looked at the two suspiciously: “Why are you both so confident in Uncle Yang? I should be the one who knows him best.”
“Because Uncle Yang himself said it’s not a big problem.” Star said honestly.
“That’s because you’re overly concerned, which shows you care about Uncle Yang more.” Meng Huaifeng coaxed.
“You’re right, this lady approves.” March 7th nodded in satisfaction.
