Chapter 1325 Mighty Fist Subdues the Giant Spirit

Upon hearing those words, a flash of lightning appeared in Durant's eyes, as if he had been strongly stimulated. He struggled violently, and a powerful force erupted from his body.

Upon noticing this, Chen Chuan immediately released his grip and calmly took a few steps back.

Durant whirled around, charging forward with a burst of intense spiritual energy, throwing a series of punches at him with even greater speed than before, seemingly employing some kind of explosive technique.

After dodging several punches, Chen Chuan pushed Durant, sending him flying backward once again.

He crashed into the mountainside, creating a deep crater, and seemed to be pushed and squeezed deeper by some force, as if he were trapped inside.

Each time Chen Chuan's power was used, it would first shatter the thick spiritual fire on his body surface, and then transmit the force into his body.

Although he is sustained by a special force and will not suffer any substantial harm, it does not mean that the force has no effect on his body.

A moment later, Durant was freed from the restraints of the force and floated in the air. His eyes flashed, and without any warning, a powerful spiritual shock burst forth and shot toward Chen Chuan.

Then he charged forward, his body not slowing down at all after using spiritual energy.

Because of the repeated beatings he had received from Chen Chuan, his body had undergone a certain improvement, so his speed became extremely fast, making it seem as if he was pushing his spiritual energy forward.

Chen Chuan clenched his fist, and light began to shimmer on the surface. He did not use spiritual energy to strike; it was simply an unusual phenomenon formed by the natural convergence of power.

Facing the spiritual impact, he neither dodged nor evaded, but instead threw a punch straight at Durant. Although his fist did not seem to have much spiritual fire gathered on it, it first pierced through the spiritual impact and then smashed into Durant's face behind him. The latter's face was immediately distorted by the impact of the huge force, and then he was sent flying backward once again.

Before his body could even move, a hand grabbed his ankle and threw him to the ground.

Durant immediately knew that if he landed on the ground again, he would definitely be followed by a barrage of attacks.

Although there is still a power gap between him and Chen Chuan, he is not completely powerless to fight back. His heart skipped a beat, his abdomen tightened suddenly, and he curled up, taking advantage of being pulled back to crash into Chen Chuan.

He intended to use Chen Chuan's strength and his indestructible body to strike the latter.

Chen Chuan stood still, letting his body crash into his spiritual form. The impact was like two huge balls of light colliding, and the damaged mountain ravines were illuminated for a moment.

Everyone on the airship felt a blinding light, followed by the familiar rumbling sound they had heard before.

A little over a minute later, Durant was once again slammed against the cliff face, where a massive amount of rocks and debris collapsed down like a waterfall, burying him instantly.

But the next moment, a deep blue light flashed, and the figure burst out from the exploding rubble. However, before it could break through, it was blasted back by a spiritual shock. This beam of light pierced through the air and shot directly into the distant sky, leaving behind only a huge hole.

Durant managed to shift his body slightly to avoid being swept away by the massive impact. Although his body wouldn't be damaged, resisting external forces would consume a lot of his energy.

At this moment, a large amount of heat emanated from his body, his spiritual light showed signs of instability, and his breathing was somewhat disordered, clearly indicating that he was exhausted.

The main reason was that he was suppressed by Chen Chuan throughout, which forced him to use his maximum strength without stopping. At the same time, with the continuous use of the three different powers, his physical strength had been greatly reduced compared to the beginning.

Chen Chuan glanced at his second self and could see waves emanating from it, indicating that some kind of continuous external force was affecting him.

Based on his experience, this wasn't a direct form of harm, but rather some kind of psychological influence. As for what it was, well, I blocked it secondly, so he didn't need to worry about it.

The purpose of the "Titan Oath" is to prevent the opponent from leaving, but he himself had no intention of leaving.

Seeing Durant standing there motionless, seemingly trying to catch his breath, he didn't give him any chance to breathe. So he immediately stepped forward and appeared in front of him in an instant, delivering a punch to Durant's abdomen without holding back.

Durant's body bent over, and he was only halfway off the ground when he was struck in the back with an elbow, which crushed the rubble below and cracked the earth.

These were entirely caused by his own body; Chen Chuan's strength most of the time perfectly penetrated into his body.

Before he could even get up, Chen Chuan kicked him again, sending him crashing into the mountainside once more.

Chen Chuanben intended to continue the offensive, but this time, he noticed something unusual about Durant's aura and paused. The earth trembled, the entire mountain shook, and a series of muffled rumbles came from its depths. Collapsed rocks and dust tumbled down the mountainside, making it appear as if the two sides of the mountain were being slowly split apart, and then a gigantic Titan emerged from within.

A massive shadow fell to the ground, its tilted upper body completely blocking out the sunlight behind it, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere. Moreover, judging from its actual height, it seemed even taller than it had been shown before.

This was the fourth and final supernatural power Durant used, known as the "Titanic Power".

When he recklessly expends his physical strength, his power can surge for a period of time. Because of the previous consumption, this state can only be maintained for a minute or two at most. So when he uses this supernatural power, it means that he is prepared to fight to the death.

This was a choice made out of necessity; his own strength had reached its limit, and he could no longer go any further. Even so, he was still far inferior to Chen Chuan.

This was unprecedented; the opponent's power ceiling was simply beyond his comprehension. This meant that he would continue to suffer a one-sided beating until the battle ended.

He was, after all, a fighter, and he would never tolerate falling in such a humiliating way, so he was willing to use his trump card to fight back.

Upon seeing this, Chen Chuan decided to give him some face. A flash appeared between his brows, and the spiritual image around him returned to its previous enormous size.

Because the fusion of the human body and the spirit is a unity of power, not just a superficial physical fusion, doing so will not cause the loss of the overlapping power.

He could sense that Durant's power had indeed increased after transforming into a giant body, but this obviously came at a price; otherwise, he wouldn't have been forced to use it at this point.

Therefore, a more conservative and less strenuous approach is to try to avoid the situation and employ delaying tactics, waiting until the opponent exhausts their own strength, at which point they will collapse without a fight.

But he didn't want to do that. As a fighter, in this fairly fair duel, he would rather defeat his opponent when he was at his strongest.

To show the other party enough respect, he thought for a moment, and a vast, sky-like force field instantly enveloped Durant, causing his body to sink and his movements to seem to slow down considerably.

Chen Chuan then charged forward, not dodging the punches coming at him, but simply raising his four arms and striking Durant repeatedly with lightning speed.

Durant, not to be outdone, seemed to have abandoned defense as well, and engaged in a shootout with Chen Chuan.

After exchanging more than ten punches, Durant's tense body finally gave way, collapsing first in the confrontation and staggering back a few steps. He was then struck heavily on the forehead by a fist, instantly losing his balance.

He stretched out his arms and used the mountainside to back up, but before he could even regain his footing, he was kicked to the ground by someone who came after him. As his massive body fell, the ground and the mountainside trembled violently once again.

Chen Chuan followed closely, stomping down and shoving his head into the pit. Then, he bent down, pinning him to the knees, and with a little force in his hands, he pounded down on his head repeatedly. Each blow caused an extremely strong earthquake.

Those watching the battle could not see the specific situation clearly, but they could feel the destructive power and intensity of the battle from the changes in the surrounding terrain, the collapse of the mountain, and the earth-shaking tremors and rumbling echoes.

This shocked everyone. Even the legendary battle of gods couldn't be more intense than this.
After lasting only about ten seconds, Durant exhausted his strength from the storm of attacks and could no longer maintain his supernatural power. His huge arms first broke and collapsed, falling down like rubble, and then his entire body quickly turned into wisps of drifting mist.

Once the mist completely dissipated, Durant was seen to have returned to his original form, lying weakly among the rubble, his arms broken, his clothes tattered.

In exchange for extreme power, he sacrificed his own revitalized power, which means that he is now like any other fighter, unable to quickly regenerate his broken limbs, and will die if his head is smashed.

Chen Chuan concealed his spiritual form and slowly walked closer. He saw that the man's arms had not recovered. He wondered if the man lacked the strength to do these things or if he was simply unable to. He felt that the latter was more likely.

However, since he had already made a move, he wouldn't hold back. He reached out, and a glint of light flashed from his fingertips. Just as he was about to kill it completely, he suddenly felt something strange and looked up at the sky.

A sense of intimidation, which I had felt before entering the country and in Vienna, reappeared faintly.

Defense mechanisms?
Chen Chuan seemed to be deep in thought. Based on what Commander Xie had told him, this should be a privilege reserved for high-ranking federal officials. If a high-ranking official in the ruling center were to be in mortal danger, the higher-ups would be mobilized to protect him.

He had no way to fight against this power at the moment. He glanced at Durant lying there, pondered for a moment, dissipated the light in his hand, and after carefully sensing and memorizing this power, he leaped up and flew into the sky as a beam of light.
