My Special Ability is Perfect Replication - Chapter 160
Chapter 160: 100 times Gravity, Next Move
“What happened?”
“What?”
“What happened to Hao Shuai?”
Seeing this sudden scene, all of the trainees were a little dumbfounded. Didn’t Hao Shuai use Time Halt to control Ling Jiu’s time? How was he injured instead?
“Sister, what’s going on?”
Wangwang looked at Bai Ya in confusion.
“I’ve heard that Ling Jiu has Gravity Arcana, and I guess this has something to do with that!” Bai Ya frowned as she pondered and said.
“Gravity?”
Wangwang pondered.
“I knew it would turn out like this!”
Christopher had a complicated expression on his face. “Gravity Arcana! It must be the Gravity Arcana! To run into Ling Jiu, Hao Shuai sure had the shittiest of luck ever.”
“Serves him right!”
Hirano Hatake said coldly.
“Gravity Arcana!”
Zhou Ji nodded slightly.
“Damn it, I got tricked by that b*stard!”
At this moment, Hao Shuai was indeed suppressed by gravity. The moment he appeared beside Ling Jiu, and before he could even attack, he had felt the terrifying gravity crashing down on him.
Yes, gravity!
He had fought against Gravity Arcanists before and knew the power of gravity. But the gravity Ling Jiu had displayed was far superior to any opponent.
With an oppressive gravity crushing on him, even with Hao Shuai’s Super Physique, he could not bear the weight.
He was crushed to the ground and was suffered instant serious injuries. Blood flowed out uncontrollably from his mouth, eyes, nose and other orifices.
What was more terrifying was that under the blood-curling gravitational force, Hao Shuai did not even have the strength to blink away, much less running away.
WOOOSHHH!!
The Time Halt effect was dispelled, and Ling Jiu’s thought process continued as he looked at Hao Shuai on the ground and laughed.
“You’re not dead yet eh? I thought I’ve already crushed you to death. Seems like your body is quite strong.”
“Sto-stop! I…cannot hold…. on any…longer!”
Hao Shuai eyes were bloodshot as he said stutteringly. He looked extremely menacing with blood flowing out from all of his orifices, he looked extremely menacing, like a bloodied person.
“Alright.”
Ling Jiu removed the gravity.
Hao Shuai broke free and immediately Blinked several hundred meters away. Only then, he heaved a long sigh of relief. He rubbed off the blood on his face as he looked at Ling Jiu with a complicated expression and asked with a growl. “I have a question. How much times gravity was that just now?”
“100 times!”
Ling Jiu said with a faint smile.
“100 times…”
Hao Shuai instantly fell silent for a long while before he said, “You win this time!”
As he said that, he immediately disappeared.
Looking at his face, many of the trainees were still dumbstruck. “He admitted defeat just like that. What happened just now?”
“Things were very obvious, alright…”
“Sister, you understood what happened?”
Wangwang was still confused.
Bai Ya had a complicated look on her face. “Ling Jiu had applied 100 times gravity around his body as a trap and waited for Hao Shuai to jump into it.”
“Hao Shuai was tricked!”
“He thought when he used Time Halt, he had stopped Ling Jiu’s time.”
“But he didn’t know that even when Ling Jiu’s time was stopped, the hundred-fold gravity around him was also affixed in that moment.”
“So, when he moved beside Ling Jiu, he will naturally be caught inside the hundred-fold gravity field. Hundred times gravity, if it was anyone else, they would have been crushed to death there and then, and even Hao Shuai only barely survived it.”
“Oh, I see!”
Wangwang suddenly realized what was going on and then immediately wondered. “What level Arcanist is Ling Jiu exactly? Why can he control hundred times the gravity?”
Under normal circumstances, the gravity that an Arcanist could control was two times their level.
For example, a level 4 Arcanist could at most control eight times gravity, and a level 5 Arcanist could control up to ten times the gravity.
And the base gravity that a level 6 Arcanist could control was twelve times, but as a level 6 Arcanist had their own Arcana Field, and under its buff, the controllable amount was 12 times 5, so it was sixty times.
Even so, it was still less than a hundred-fold that Ling Jiu had unleashed earlier.
Only by becoming a level 7 Arcanist would the buff from the Arcana Field increase to ten times, and only then could one control 14 times 10, hundred and forty times the gravity.
With Ling Jiu being able to control a hundred times the gravity, was he already a level 7 Arcanist?
“No idea.”
Bai Ya shook her head.
Wangwang nodded. “That pervert is actually that strong, even Hao Shuai with his Time Halt is no match for him!”
“Although he had won, there’s some part coincidence.”
Bai Ya said calmly. “If they were to meet next time, victory is not necessarily assured. There’s a saying, when masters fight, victory or defeat is often just a thought away.”
“Indeed!”
Wangwang nodded in agreement. “If Hao Shuai could use Time Halt before Ling Jiu unleashes his Gravity Arcana, then Ling Jiu is lamb for the slaughter.”
“But if he’s too slow, and Ling Jiu manages to release his Gravity Arcana, then it’ll end up just like today.”
“That’s right!”
…
“Ol Zhang. Don’t you have anything to say?” Wang Dalong looked at the skinny old man with a half-smile.
“Hmph! It’s just a fluke! What else is there to say!”
The skinny old man snorted coldly. “If Hao Shuai knew of Ling Jiu’s abilities, he would not have fallen for that trap.”
“Regardless, this round was ultimately Hao Shuai’s loss.”
The camp commandant smiled and said. “It’s still comes back to that. There’s no strong or weak Arcana, the key is depending on who and how it is used.”
“Indeed!”
Everyone nodded.
“Old Li, is that boy Ling Jiu already a level 7 Arcanist?”
Wang Dalong suddenly asked. “Hao Shuai has Super Physique, and ordinary ten times gravity can do nothing to him.”
“But Ling Jiu’s gravity can instantly crush him into the ground. This is at least in the upper double digits, or even hundred-fold gravity, right?”
“I don’t know the exact details, but I think he should have broken through level 7?”
…
Level 7?
Of course not!
Ling Jiu was still a level 6 Arcanist, but the gravity he could wield was even greater and more terrifying than a level 7 Arcanist could.
Why?
It was because he was using advanced energy like the Dark Bio-energy that was ten times stronger.
As a level 6 Arcanist, the base amount of gravity Ling Jiu could control was 6x2x10, so 120 times!
With the addition of the five-fold buff from the Arcana Field, it was 600 times.
That is to say, Ling Jiu could control up to 600 times the gravity, and was far, far greater than the 140 times a level 7 Arcanist could control.
Was it overpowered?
For sure it was!
But this was the true power of the Dark Bio-energy. What else can you say?
“Sadly, the camp prohibits killing, otherwise…” Ling Jiu shook his head.
He had stayed his hand earlier. If he went all out and used 600 times the gravity, Hao Shuai would have been crushed until his blood vessel burst open and died.
“Amazing!”
“Even Hao Shuai is not his match!”
“As expected of the ace of the world’s number one Arcana organization training camp. His strength matches his reputation, and you have to accept that even if you don’t want to. ”
“He’s too strong!”
“The top spot in the training camp is his right?”
The entire place was astounded.
“That bugger is getting stronger and stronger!”
Zhou Ji looked at Ling Jiu and said quietly. “The gap between him and us is getting bigger and bigger. I guess it’ll be impossible for us to catch up to him in this lifetime.”
Christopher and Hirano Hatake were both silent, and although Ling Jiu had overwhelmed them in the past, they believed that as long as they worked harder, they could always catch up to him.
But now, they suddenly realized that the gap between them and Ling Jiu had unknowingly increased to the point that they cannot even see his shadow…
This feeling felt very bitter but more helpless and powerless.
“It’s time to collect this ultimate treasure of heaven and earth!”
Ling Jiu ignored all of the exclamations and discussions of the others around him as he came before the massive tree, thinking of a way to collect it.
Dig out the tree’s heart.
Kill it.
“Dig out the tree’s heart huh…”
Generally speaking, the heart of a tree would always be in the central, innermost places.
To dig out a tree’s heart meant he needed to cut the tree into two, but the tree before him was just too big so cutting it half was simply not realistic.
“How about I’ll uproot it and take it away first?”
Ling Jiu thought about this and then took out the war blade as he came to the bottom of the big tree. Just as he was about to cut it down, the towering tree suddenly trembled violently.
And then, it quickly shrank…
A towering tree thousands of feet tall shrinking rapidly. It was a very astonishing scene to behold. But more importantly, the shrinking did not seem to be stopping at all.
It shrank, and shrank and shrank, before eventually shrinking into a two-meter-tall, finger-thick sapling.
It then slipped into the ground and disappeared.
“Escaping?”
Although Ling Jiu dumbstruck, he was also paying attention to the direction the giant tree was going. The moment it snuck onto the ground like a groundhog to flee, Ling Jiu immediately threw out a Dimensional Shackle, and locked the several dozens meter of space underground in place.
Before the Dimensional Shackle, obstacles like walls, earth, houses, safes and the likes were meaningless.
As these objects themselves existed within space, so the ubiquitous spatial points filled every corner of them.
So, as long as Ling Jiu wanted to, he could use the space to come to any area obstacles like walls, earth, and the likes were at.
BUZZZZ
The towering tree was instantly shackled underground as Ling Jiu flicked his fingers and pulled it out of the ground.
It struggled desperately, and its intensity was shocking, being no less inferior than the Three-headed Frostfire Scaled Dragon.
However, the power of Ling Jiu’s Dimensional Shackle had increased tenfold, so no matter how desperately it struggled, it could not break free.
“I can’t keep shackling you in place, let’s just chop you off first.”
Ling Jiu took out his war blade and was about to split the towering tree that had turned into a sapling in two. Unexpectedly, at that very moment, a panicked voice begging for mercy rang in his head. “Don’t…don’t kill me!”
“Please! Don’t kill me!”
The voice was very young and tender, like a five to six years old child, and it was full of fear and terror.
“Ugh…”
Ling Jiu was taken aback for a moment and lowered his blade. After looking at the sapling and the crowd of trainees that had yet to disperse, he escaped into dimension in a flash.
“It was you talking just now?”
Ling Jiu looked at the young sapling.
“Yes… yess… it was me! Don’t…don’t kill me!”
The young sapling’s immature voice rang out again.
“Heheh, you can actually communicate with me mentally.”
Ling Jiu was surprised. “Say, what are you exactly? As far as I know, ordinary ultimate treasure of heaven and earth can’t do something like you just did!”
“I…I…I…”
The sapling squeaked.
“Hmmm?”
Ling Jiu lifted his war blade, and the threat was self-evident. The young sapling screamed in fear. “Don’t kill me! I’m the Divine Tree of Casmodor!”
“Divine Tree of Casmodor?”
