Chapter 1439 No Techniques, Only Strength
Looking at the air in front of him, Chen Mu, as a high-level Ghost Lord, could clearly sense the location of the Gladiator King.
It was broken into clumps and floated in the surrounding air.
Attacking with brute force is like punching the air; it won't harm the King of Gladiators at all.
Even the King of Gladiators in his air state cannot harm his opponent.
The most likely clash between the two sides will occur when the Gladiator King launches an attack, requiring it to quickly materialize and strike from a specific location.
This is the only time when the King of Gladiators can be attacked.
The opponent needs to use the sharpest intuition to detect the Gladiator King's brief weakness and launch a counterattack as quickly as possible.
The initiative in the battle rests entirely in the hands of the Gladiator King.
It can attack at any time or roam for extended periods. The opponent, however, must remain highly vigilant, constantly guarding against surprise attacks, and seizing opportunities in a timely manner.
The difficulty level of the two sides differs by at least double!
It can be said that against an ordinary opponent, the King of Gladiators could already declare victory.
Unfortunately, this time it encountered no ordinary opponent.
It encountered Boss Chen!
Chen Mu didn't waste any words with it and directly mobilized his innate evil energy.
The best way to deal with gaseous ghost energy is to use an even stronger gaseous ghost energy—your innate ghost energy!
A white mist emanated from Chen Mu's body.
This is an extremely condensed, somewhat liquefied, innate evil energy.
Such a powerful mass of energy would probably leave even the Demon Lord speechless with astonishment.
At this moment, Chen Mu stood still, looking ethereal and otherworldly.
However, his "ethereal aura" is actually a genuine, innate, and sinister aura.
These dense, almost liquefied white vapors, after leaving a 5-meter radius of Chen Mu, evaporated and dissipated into the surrounding area like vaporized dry ice.
Soon, the innate strange energy released by Chen Mu, like the King of Gladiators, mixed in the air, invisible and formless.
To onlookers, Chen Mu's appearance just now seemed ethereal and otherworldly, but then that ethereal aura vanished completely.
This abrupt performance left many viewers completely bewildered.
However, the King of Gladiators immediately recognized the enormous threat within!
The most obvious change in the King of Gladiators is that it used to love talking nonsense and showing off, but as soon as Chen Mu unleashed his innate strange energy, the King of Gladiators immediately shut up.
It's definitely not that it didn't want to show off, but rather that it could sense the significant threat contained within that white "celestial aura"!
As the white mist dissipated, the King of Gladiators not only did not relax, but his nerves became even more tense.
It could sense that the white mist hadn't actually disappeared, but had instead transformed into fine wisps that it couldn't perceive, drifting in the air.
These imperceptible threads are fraught with deadly danger! Yet, he was completely unaware of it.
The Gladiator King felt like prey in an air forest. And the white filaments hidden in the air were like hunters with guns.
The hunter lurks in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow!
The King of Gladiators' attempt to become airborne was originally intended to conceal himself in the shadows. However, this move proved to be incredibly naive and inferior in front of Chen Mu, who easily reversed the situation and launched a counterattack.
No, if this drags on any longer, I'm sure I'll lose.
We must take the initiative!
The King of Gladiators has decided to gather his air units and launch a decisive battle against Chen Mu!
Within the air, the true form of the Gladiator King split into eight "air" fragments.
Just as they were preparing to gather, suddenly, a large white net appeared around each clump of "air"!
The King of Gladiators was startled. In just a few seconds, the white mist emanating from Chen Mu had already locked onto his eight "air" spheres!
It instinctively wanted to escape, and every wisp of "air" wanted to continue splitting and escaping.
However, it still underestimated the power of Chen Mu's innate strange energy.
Eight large white nets completely enveloped the eight "air clones".
This tightness doesn't mean it's airtight. On the contrary, the mesh in each large net is quite large, even larger than a fishing net!
However, whenever the King of Gladiators' "air state" tries to escape through a gap, its corresponding innate evil energy will fill the hole.
Wherever the "air state" goes, the innate evil energy blocks it.
The large net, which allowed air to escape from all directions, actually made it impossible for the bird to fly away.
At this moment, the King of Gladiators finally realized that the gap between himself and Chen Mu was far greater than he had imagined.
Chen Mu used these eight leaky nets to tell the King of Gladiators—to deal with someone of your strength, there's no need for an impenetrable net; wherever you want to run, I can easily intercept you.
"Show up!"
Chen Mu said calmly.
The next second, eight large white nets tightened simultaneously.
The eight wisps of "air" of the King of Gladiators were instantly compressed and crushed.
For the first time, the King of Gladiators realized that even his "air state" could feel like it was being squeezed and crushed.
How did Chen Mu do that? Why could he crush "air"?
Could it be that Chen Mu possesses some unique skill?
What it didn't know was that it was actually very simple for Chen Mu to do this.
There is no other reason than that great effort can produce miracles.
The King of Gladiators' "air state" is ultimately inferior to Kong Qi's, and he cannot truly merge into the air.
If you look closely, you can still see a hint of something eerie.
To put it simply, the King of Gladiators, like tearing apart a squid, "tears" himself into thin strands of "air."
If that's the case, then it's very easy to handle.
Chen Mu used a massive amount of his innate evil energy to squeeze each "air filament" almost one-to-one, naturally creating the effect of "exploding the air".
Only a powerful individual like Chen Mu, with an inexhaustible supply of innate unpredictable energy, could pull off such a miraculous move.
"what!!!"
Accompanied by screams, the Gladiator King's "air state" was instantly broken by Chen Mu.
The eight spheres of "air" correspond to the eight parts of the Gladiator King's body—
Head, torso, left hand, right hand, buttocks, left leg, right leg... Hmm? What's that last thing?
Chen Mu squinted and looked carefully to make sure he wasn't mistaken.
Seriously, buddy? You're quite the weirdo too. When it split into eight pieces, you even separated it into a separate piece.
It's quite sophisticated, but the moment the true form is revealed, it can be a bit awkward.
At this moment, thousands of eyes in the arena were staring blankly at the eighth fragment.
In that instant, the King of Gladiators felt an overwhelming sense of shame.
He exposed such a shameful existence in front of his subordinate and mortal enemy, Chen Mu.
The strange life... it's probably over by now.
The King of Gladiators, with its elusive head, looked up to the sky and sighed. For the first time, it experienced what it meant to be dead.
What the King of Gladiators didn't expect was that what would be even more humiliating for him was the discussion about him by his own subordinates.
The spectators in the stands were all staring at a particular part of their own bodies, whispering and discussing among themselves:
"Why is it so thin?"
"I never imagined that such a massive boss could actually be so..."
"It really feels like a needle."
"I think I can understand it. After all, the BOSS is such a long and thin creature, there must be a corresponding one."
Listening to his subordinates' discussion, the Gladiator King suddenly felt an urge to die.
My lifelong reputation has been ruined in an instant!
And all of this is thanks to Chen Mu!
"Chen Mu, I'm going to kill you."
Enraged, the King of Gladiators had lost some of his reason and dared to continue hurling threats at Chen Mu even though he was firmly under Chen Mu's control.
Chen Mu glanced at it and said with a smile, "Little Dou, you can rephrase your words."
Being called "Little Fighter" by Chen Mu infuriated the King of Gladiators even more.
It also sensed the subtle warning in Chen Mu's words.
But given the current atmosphere, if it immediately backs down, wouldn't it make itself look even more pathetic?
The King of Gladiators steeled himself and continued to be defiant.
