Chapter 544 Dust Life Base
Ordinary people couldn't fathom the ferocity of Lin Shen's strike, only a few who knew the potency of "Dust Settles" could perceive how terrifying his attack was.
To the average person, it might seem that Di Esi was nothing special, not nearly as fearsome as the combat strength Kristin had displayed.
"I've taken your strike, shouldn't you take mine as well?" Lin Shen asked Di Esi.
"Of course," Di Esi nodded in response.
Lin Shen raised his hand, pointing towards Di Esi like a spear, and without any hesitation, he used "Finger Sand" again.
A needle-shaped stream of light shot from Lin Shen's fingertip, heading straight for Di Esi's face.
As "Finger Sand" flew, it somewhat resembled Di Esi's "Dust Settles" by directly absorbing the World's Force onto it, making its strength grow increasingly stronger. However, it wasn't as rapid as "Dust Settles," lacking its snowballing feature, it simply continued to absorb the World's Force.
Even so, because it subsequently absorbed the World's Force, this "Finger Sand" broke through the limit of strength Lin Shen could muster, albeit not as exaggerated as "Dust Settles".
But "Dust Settles" had its flaw as well—it could only be effective if one used the Dust Life Base, unlike "Finger Sand" which could be used anytime and anywhere, not limited by its medium.
Lin Shen thought, "Di Esi is after all universally acknowledged as the strongest among Ascenders, I took his strike without using my Life Base, surely he wouldn't have the audacity to use his Life Base against my attack."
As he was thinking this, he saw Di Esi create a circle with his index finger and thumb, flicking towards the "Finger Sand" from Lin Shen.
One saw dust, rolling with an energy snowball, charging towards "Finger Sand". When they collided, a terrifying burst of energy was unleashed, sending both men staggering backward in retreat.
Lin Shen inwardly cursed, "What happened to 'Dust Settles' being a full-force strike? What happened to it being the full-force strike of his Life Base and himself? Isn't this cheating my feelings?"
Clearly, Di Esi's recent strike was just a casual flick, without using his Dust Life Base at all.
"Didn't you just say that 'Dust Settles' was the full-force attack combining you and your Dust Life Base?" Lin Shen couldn't help but directly confront Di Esi.
"Yes," Di Esi nodded earnestly.
"Then why was it that your recent attack, without using the Dust Life Base, managed to produce the same effect?" Lin Shen continued to press Di Esi.
"Didn't I tell you from the start? My Life Base is but a speck of dust in the universe, and I am also a speck of dust in the universe. I am it, and it is me. Any speck of dust in the universe can be considered as my Life Base..." Di Esi explained earnestly.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Make it simpler, I don't like philosophy," Lin Shen frowned.
"To put it simply, the Dust Life Base is any speck of dust in the universe, any of which can be my Life Base," Di Esi explained again.
"Are you saying that any particle of dust is your Life Base? You can use all of them as a Life Base?" Lin Shen felt that Di Esi was bullshitting him, how could such a thing be possible.
"Yes," Di Esi nodded with certainty.
"In that case, the air is full of dust, all of which are your Life Base? Since they are all your Life Base, you should be able to control them, right? Show me." Lin Shen sneered.
"Alright," as Di Esi's voice fell, Lin Shen couldn't help but widen his eyes.
The dust in the air, nearly invisible to the naked eye, began to shimmer one by one.
Countless specks of dust, as if responding to Di Esi, kept twinkling with various colors, making the entire space seemed like it was filled with colorful stars. For a moment, Lin Shen felt as though he was in a galaxy.
Di Esi stretched out a hand, and the dust that was as dazzling as a galaxy immediately converged towards his palm. It was as if a river of stars was flowing in reverse, continuously condensing in his hand, and it transformed into a folding fan, identical to Lin Shen's Inheritance Fan.
"Your Life Base is a folding fan, you must be skilled with fan techniques, then let us battle with fans," Di Esi said, holding the folding fan formed from the gathered dust.
Lin Shen felt cold sweat bead on his forehead, "Could he really use the omnipresent dust as his Life Base?"
With dust being everywhere, Di Esi's ability to turn it into his Life Base meant that Lin Shen was constantly surrounded by Di Esi's Life Base. Even the dust he breathed in could be manipulated by Di Esi to become a lethal weapon.
How do you fight someone who can strike you from all directions, inside and out, at any moment?
Only now did Lin Shen fully realize why in the universe so many powerful figures, so many mysterious and strange skills, still only Di Esi is recognized as the strongest. Experience more content on empire
This was more than strong, it was monstrous.
"Di Esi, truly deserving of a naturally Nirvana-born human," the Heavenly Emperor rarely offered such praise.
"The universe is far too fond of Di Esi," Catherine also sighed.
Kristin watched Di Esi silently, with an intensity in her eyes that was frightening.
Lin Shen managed to beat her, somewhat by a fluke, and if she were to battle Lin Shen again, Kristin didn't think she would necessarily lose. But now, just by witnessing Di Esi display his Life Base ability, Kristin already felt immense pressure and couldn't think of a way to overcome it instantly.
"What is true peerless invincibility? It must be this kind of despair," someone sighed unconsciously.
No one could imagine how Di Esi could possibly lose. Previously many thought certain powerful individuals could match Di Esi, but only at this moment did everyone clearly understand that no one had the right to be mentioned in the same breath as Di Esi. He was like a god-like existence, the true definition of peerless invincibility.
Unless one's body could withstand the omnipresent attack from the Dust Life Base, which was everywhere, no one else stood a chance.
Only absolute strength and suppression could possibly defeat Di Esi.
Di Esi was currently at the Ascension Level, and there were the Nirvana Level and Immortal Level that could suppress him, but what when Di Esi advanced to the Nirvana Level, the Immortal Level? Who then could suppress him with absolute strength?
"Perhaps, the universe is finally about to welcome a new Realm King."
At this moment, many terrifying beings in the universe couldn't help but harbor murderous intentions, but thinking of Di Esi's origins, they could only suppress their killing intent.
If the Supreme Clan wanted to delineate and become a Realm King, it seemed there was no need to wait for the birth of Di Esi.
Lin Shen looked at Di Esi, and did not summon his Inheritance Fan, because it was pointless. It would be like Di Esi forgoing machine guns and cannons to play with daggers in close combat. Even if Lin Shen won, what would it mean?
What do you think?
