The Mech Touch novel Chapter 7177

Chapter 7177: Spirit Wound

The duel between the Dark Apostle and the Unshakeable King had entered a new and much more intensive phase.

Two confrontations took place at the same time.

On the surface, the Dark Apostle finally made proper use of his advantages and successfully managed to whittle down the Unshakeable King’s spatial barrier without incurring any serious injuries to his exposed true body.

Yet what happened out of sight of the vast majority of observers was the secret competition between companion spirits.

Blinky’s special traits and abilities happened to turn him into a nemesis towards many energy-based life forms!

The furry and adorable looking Star Cat might look innocent, but he assimilated the infamous devouring ability of the Unending One!

Even if Blinky was unable to replicate the full might of the deceased dark god’s frightening ability to devour nearly anything, the companion spirit was still able to pose a serious threat against a younger and relatively less developed counterpart.

The miniature giant was quite impressive for being able to make so many gains in his focused training. He had also matured a lot faster than he should.

Ves guessed that the Phase Lord Department must have fed the miniature giant and other companion spirits with cultivation resources.

If the Red Collective still supplied the rogue department with elixirs and such, the miniature giant definitely wouldn’t have been as easy to disrupt!

As it was, the enemy phase lord’s companion spirit was ultimately wholly unprepared to fight against a companion spirit as remarkable as Blinky.

At this time, the Star Cat dispelled his spiritual shield so that he could fully reverse the flow of the aperture that led into his Imaginary Universe.

He wanted to see what would happen if he devoured the miniature giant in his entirety!

Would the companion spirit remain intact when he found himself trapped inside a completely different universe that operated through completely different rules?

Would the Unshakeable King lose his connection to his companion spirit, and would he suffer grievous damage to his mind and spirit if that happened?

There were so many questions swirling in Ves’ mind that he couldn’t wait to complete this sequence!

While the Unshakeable King grew alarmed at what was happening to his companion spirit, what could he do? His amazing physical prowess and his specialized spatial abilities may be useful against corporeal opponents, but they pretty much posed no threat against a pure energy-based life form like Blinky!

The miniature giant was supposed to be the phase lord’s answer against more esoteric threats, but it was too bad that this companion spirit was at least several years too young to pose a credible threat against Blinky.

After letting out a haunting wail, the companion spirit unraveled into a spiritual yarn before getting sucked right into the Blinkyverse!

The miniature giant died before he could reach the other side. He was ultimately not strong or tough enough to stay in one piece before he passed through the other side.

Nothing was left of him aside from the spiritual building blocks that used to make up his existence. The Blinkyverse was rapidly beginning to assimilate them by wiping out their original imprints so that they could integrate properly in their new universe.

The loss of such a precious companion spirit had a very pronounced effect on the leader of the Ur-Titan Phalanx.

He suffered a headache like nothing else! His composure broke and he completely lost his cool!

Yet despite suffering such a serious spiritual injury, his resistance abruptly grew stronger as he held nothing back anymore!

"YOU DESERVE TO DIE! BOTH OF YOU DESERVE TO DIE! NO MORE GAMES! NO MORE WORDS! SINCE YOUR COMPANION SPIRIT SAW FIT TO DEVOUR MY OWN, I SHALL DO THE SAME TO YOU! PROGENITOR OR NOT, I SHALL FEAST ON YOUR FLESH AND GNAW ON YOUR BONES! YOUR SKULL SHALL BECOME MY NEW WINECUP!"

The Unshakeable King’s body swelled beneath his raiment, causing it to become much more strained than before.

The furious phase lord moved with alacrity and struck with greater force. He no longer abided by the normal limits of his enhanced physique, but pushed himself to the utmost even if he was threatening to tear his own muscles!

If that was not enough, he decided to supercharge his phasewater organs!

He did this by decisively burning the phasewater that was embedded in his own lifeblood.

His phasewater concentration dropped by the second, undoing an escalating amount of his hard-earned progress.

Yet for the time being, he was able to strengthen his abilities far above their usual levels!

The surrounding space almost completely fell into the sway of the Unshakeable King. His control over it had reached a decisive level. The Dark Apostle was no longer able to pull off any effective external spatial techniques because he was unable to exert any control over the surrounding environment!

The Unshakeable King suddenly disappeared from view and abruptly appeared behind his foe with both hammers swinging down to dent the Dark Apostle’s exposed rear!

Defective or not, if those hammers struck the backpack module containing the power reactor, there was a large chance that it would malfunction, causing the plasma spear to run out of power!

Fortunately, the sudden turn of events did not cause the Dark Apostle to lose his complacency. He had seen his adversary pull off this trick once, and he had already prepared a response in case it happened again.

He was actually thankful that the Unshakeable King had made the predictable choice to approach right from the rear. It would have been trickier to fend off the traitorous phase lord from other angles.

Just before those twin hammers could strike, the azure shield generator that had already been primed to respond briefly activated while putting much of its power in the rear rather than the other directions!

Since the hammers were made of a higher standard of transphasic alloys, the azure energy shield only lasted for a short moment before bursting apart.

The hasty activation had done it no favors, but the shield had thankfully lasted long enough to do its job!

The Unshakeable King had wasted a lot of energy and effort to launch this teleport strike, yet failed to do anything but disable a backup measure.

The backpack reactor module remained intact, which came in really handy as it began to channel greater power into the Flame Lord Raiment.

Boosters helped the Dark Apostle spin around fast enough to be able to score the chest plate of the Unshakeable King with the Teragon Plasma Spear!

"YOU SHALL NOT ESCAPE!"

"VES! I NEED YOUR HELP!"

"I am already on it! Just hold out for a few more seconds!"

"ARMOR PURGE!"
