Unexpectedly, Snow Empress didn't want to hear her explanation at all, but immediately turned to Lu Ren.
A trace of extremely rare embarrassment appeared on that cold and pure face, and the sky-blue eyes flickered for a few times before regaining their composure. "Then when you want to use Pure Love Cannon in the future, will you also want me----?"
She didn't say the last few words, but the meaning was obvious.
"Well, it's theoretically necessary. Otherwise, I won't be able to fully integrate your power into my Maximum: Uzumaki and increase its power." Lu Ren became even more embarrassed.
He never thought that one day he would say the same "I love you" to two different girls to borrow power, and one of them was the Far North First Heavenly King who had cultivated for 700,000 years.
"This is Binding Vow, Binding Vow is like this, using confession in exchange for the complete integration of power, and increasing the upper limit of my own Soul Power output."
For the first time, Snow Empress's cold face, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, had a look that could be described as collapse.
The sky is falling.
She wanted to ask something else, trying to find an alternative to bypass this embarrassing process. "What if you don't want Binding Vow, and I will give you the power of Bing'er together? Both of them provide power at the same time, and there is no need for that - that confession."
"In that case, how can I use your Soul Spirit's power to integrate into my Maximum: Uzumaki?" Lu Ren explained quickly.
"You must understand that you and Ice Empress are both stronger than me. My current cultivation level is only Soul Saint. It is impossible to control all of your powers. Forcible fusion will only cause the vortex to explode in my own hands before it is released."
"That's why I can use Binding Vow to completely control your power with one blow, and then shoot out this cannon." Lu Ren gave the answer.
After saying that, he looked at Snow Empress and asked tentatively, "How about changing to another Binding Vow? I'll think of another way to see if I can get around it."
Snow Empress was silent for a long time, with an extremely complicated expression on his cold face.
She looked at Lu Ren, then at Ice Empress who was still blushing, and finally waved her hand. "Okay, okay, just keep it like this, it's just nonsense anyway."
She paused and muttered at a volume that almost only she could hear, "Besides, it's not impossible."
Ice Empress:"???"
Her hearing was so keen that she caught this sentence instantly and her eyes widened even more.
"Okay, okay, now there is a key question."
Lu Ren sighed and decided to end this increasingly embarrassing topic.
"Just now Maximum: Uzumaki contained the power of Ice Empress. The result is that although we defeated Mahoraga in seconds this time, it is not considered a success in taming it."
"I didn't expect that even the power of Soul Spirit cannot be included. I have to kill it myself to be considered successful."
"Then I won't give it to you for free?"
Ice Empress couldn't help but muttered, and Twin Tails also drooped down feebly.
She was confessed just now and tried her best, but Lu Ren told her that it didn't count.
Lu Ren's expression became extremely serious, and he put away his usual faint smile, "You two watch the show, and I will do it myself."
Ice Empress and Snow Empress looked at each other and retreated into Sea of Consciousness at the same time, leaving the battlefield completely to Lu Ren.
Ever since, Lu Ren once again performed the ritual of summoning Mahoraga.
The spell sounded again, Cursed Energy soared into the sky again, the giant white chrysalis appeared behind him again, Mahoraga's sturdy figure emerged from the cocoon again, and immediately locked on Lu Ren.
It has no memory of the last time it was instantly killed by Pure Love Cannon. In its view, this is the first time it has faced the Sorcerer in front of it.
Then Lu Ren started Projection Sorcery, and immediately backed away.
He wanted to superimpose the speed of Projection Sorcery to a very high speed, and then hit Mahoraga in one go.
You cannot fight Mahoraga in a protracted manner.
This is not a regular competition, nor is it a back-and-forth confrontation, but a race against time.
Once you fight Mahoraga for too long, it can adapt to all moves, so how can you fight with it?
Isn't that purely leveling up Mahoraga?
Mahoraga will become stronger and stronger as it adapts, and you will become weaker and weaker as it is consumed. Under the ebb and flow of one another, even if you are originally stronger than it, you will be dragged to death.
Not to mention that after it adapts to your tricks, it will become immune!
Mahoraga took heavy steps to pursue Lu Ren. Each step covered a distance of several feet, and the ground shook violently under its feet.
But Lu Ren relies on the ultra-high movement speed obtained by Projection Sorcery, and Mahoraga will not be able to catch up for a while.
Projection Sorcery's speed superposition is that of Limitless. As long as you give him enough time, it won't be a problem for him to circle Douluo Continent.
In addition, Lu Ren deliberately kept a good distance, neither too far nor too close, which just made Mahoraga feel that "as long as he goes faster, he can catch up."
At the same time, it won't really be chopped by its Sword of Extermination.
He drew strange zigzag lines in the air, sometimes turning sharply to the left, and sometimes retreating suddenly, taking full advantage of Projection Sorcery's enhanced ability to move freely.
Soon, after chasing Mahoraga for a while, Dharma Wheel spun around above his head.
Dharma Wheel lit up with a faint light, and then its speed suddenly accelerated. The distance that could only barely follow Lu Ren was quickly shortened, and it was almost close to Lu Ren in an instant.
Apparently it improved its speed by adapting to the speed of Lu Ren.
This is the scary thing about Mahoraga. As long as it encounters a problem that is difficult to solve, it will automatically evolve the ability to solve the problem accordingly.
If it's not fast enough, then adapt to become faster. If it doesn't have the ability to breathe in water, then adapt and evolve gills. If it's not strong enough, then adapt to evolve power----
When Lu Ren saw this, he quickly increased his speed, increasing the speed of Projection Sorcery.
Now Lu Ren's speed has reached the Mach level. His whole body turned into a lightning that was difficult to catch with the naked eye. The ground began to shake violently wherever he passed. The air was blasted by his high-speed impact into a large number of circular air waves. Each circular air wave spread around like a small hurricane.
There was a hill next to it that was affected by Lu Ren's high-speed pass. Just by passing by, the impact of the airflow caused the rocks on the surface of the mountain to break apart, and half of the entire mountain suddenly collapsed.
And Lu Ren is still speeding up, speeding up, and speeding up again.
Mach 8, Mach 9——His speed has exceeded the limit that the ground under his feet can bear, and fine Rift began to appear in the air.
At this time, Dharma Wheel of Mahoraga turned around again and caught up with the speed of Lu Ren.
A layer of vague streamlined light appears on the surface of its body, which is the acceleration ability it has evolved by adapting to ultra-high-speed movement.
"That's it now, no more folding!"
Lu Ren gritted his teeth and turned at top speed near the mountain peak. His body drew a perfect arc in mid-air, and he turned around and aimed at Mahoraga, who was rushing towards him.
If Dharma Wheel is allowed to spin on Mahoraga's head, things will be bad.
"Watch me penetrate you directly at my highest speed!"
Lu Ren transformed into a straight bolt of lightning and crashed into Mahoraga at a terrifying speed.
He used all the acceleration effect of Projection Sorcery on this blow. His body itself is the strongest weapon. The kinetic energy superimposed to the extreme at super high speed cooperates with his own amazing physical strength, plus the critical hit of Black Flash that is already fully charged at the edge of the fist.
Mahoraga did not retreat at all. It raised Sword of Extermination to face the charge of Lu Ren.
The moment the two sides collided, the sky and the earth were darkened, and the light exploding at the point of impact was more dazzling than the sun, illuminating the entire night sky as if it were daytime.
The sky collapsed and the earth shattered, and an origin was created between the collision of the two.
It is an energy singularity formed when pure kinetic energy is compressed to the extreme.
Then there was a big earthquake, the whole ground was cracked with bottomless Rift, all vegetation within a few miles was uprooted by the shock wave, and several hills in the distance were directly shaken down.
Lu Ren's collision directly took Mahoraga through an entire mountain peak.
The mountain was penetrated from the middle by two people, and the rock formations shattered like tofu under the impact of kinetic energy.
Then Mahoraga was greeted by Lu Ren's relentless Black Flash.
After Projection Sorcery has been strengthened by Binding Vow, it can shoot at 240 frames per second, which is equivalent to 240 rounds per second of Black Flash bombarding Mahoraga at the same time.
Each shot of Black Flash is a damage bonus of 2.5 times, and every shot of Black Flash accurately lands in the same position where Mahoraga's defense is weakest.
Even the most powerful Mahoraga was unable to adapt to such a terrifying explosive attack.
The ultra-high frequency of hundreds of punches per second exceeded the time it Dharma Wheel could adapt to. Before it had time to adapt to the power of the first punch, hundreds of subsequent punches had already hit it at the same time.
In Lu Ren's stormy torrent of Black Flash, Mahoraga was smashed to pieces, and the gray-white body was blown to pieces from the inside out by Black Flash's combos.
Mahoraga, subdued successfully!
From now on, Mahoraga officially becomes Shikigami that he can freely summon, and it is not a wild state that needs to be re-tamed.
This is a loyal fighting force that is completely obedient to him and can be on call at any time.
"It's done!"
The moment he felt that Mahoraga had successfully tamed him, Lu Ren breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally succeeded, this is the strongest trump card adapted to Max Elephant!
As long as you give it enough time to adapt, I'm afraid even the gods in the Divine Realm won't be the opponents of Mahoraga.
Who can stand this conceptual level of ability?
"This--this is it?"
Ice Empress in Sea of Consciousness was completely dumbfounded.
Just now she watched with her own eyes as Mahoraga suddenly adapted to Mach-level speed and chased Lu Ren across half of the plain, even collapsing three mountain peaks.
The air waves generated at that speed can even lift rocks weighing several tons on the ground into the air.
As a result, Lu Ren used the most violent method to forcefully beat him into submission?
There were more than two hundred Black Flash shots per second, and within one second a Monster that even she found troublesome was blown into pieces.
She originally thought that Lu Ren would have to at least expand his domain in order to barely suppress Mahoraga. Who knew that he didn't even use his domain, and could defeat the opponent in seconds purely by relying on his speed and burst.
"It's really done."
Lu Ren looked happy, then recited the spell again, and a huge black vortex appeared in the shadow under his feet.
He summoned Mahoraga.
This time, it was not the hostile Subjugation Ritual, but the summons as the master.
Sure enough, there was no need to tame Mahoraga, who loyally appeared behind Lu Ren. The burly body of four to five meters high was like a silent patron saint, and the gray-white hard skin was behind. There was a cold sheen under Moonlight. The rudder-like Dharma Wheel above its head remained motionless, and the Sword of Extermination on its right arm hung low at its side, not making any move to attack Lu Ren.
It stood there quietly, waiting for its master's orders.
In this way, Lu Ren became the second person in history to tame Mahoraga.
In Jujutsu Kaisen's worldview, no Sorcerer of Ten Shadows Technique can be found in the entire history who can tame Mahoraga.
The Sorcerer of Ten Shadows Technique in the past can only tame the first nine Shikigami at most. Mahoraga is the ultimate threshold that they can never cross, and every attempt to tame them ends in miserable failure.
Even Sukuna was the first to successfully tame Mahoraga.
And he Lu Ren is naturally the second one.
Lu Ren didn't use Domain Expansion, nor did he use any tricks. He just relied on Projection Sorcery to push the speed to the limit, and then used more than 200 rounds per second of Black Flash to blast Mahoraga into slag.
"What happened just now?"
The voice of Snow Empress came from Sea of Consciousness, with a rare dignity and curiosity.
She floated out of Lu Ren's body, her sky-blue eyes fell on Mahoraga, and she carefully looked at Shikigami, who had just been defeated by Lu Ren on her own.
Her eyes lingered on the still Dharma Wheel above Mahoraga for a long time, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if she was analyzing a certain pattern from the observations of the two battles.
"The Dharma Wheel on top of its head, every time it turns around, it will gain an extra layer of adaptive power."
"And this adaptation is not an ordinary attribute resistance, it looks like a deeper Rule immunity."
"Just like Bing'er, after freezing it with Ultimate Ice for the first time, when it broke out of the ice, Ultimate Ice's power had already been adapted to part of it, and it was immune to a lot of the damage it caused."
"The second time you freeze it, the effect will be greatly reduced. If you use the same trick for the third time, you may not even be able to freeze its skin."
"Is this some kind of evolutionary mechanism similar to the Law level?"
Snow Empress's observation skills are so keen. After just watching two battles, he could already see the core of Mahoraga's ability.
The law of Dharma Wheel's rotation, the specific performance after adaptation, and the fatal window period when the adaptation mechanism had no time to react when killed by Pure Love Cannon.
All these details were clearly captured by her.
It's just that she can't understand the underlying principle of this ability, because it is completely beyond the cognitive scope of the Douluo Continent's power system.
Here, one can either rely on cultivation to crush someone, or rely on attribute restraint. There has never been any concept of "adapting to everything".
"Almost, you can say that."
Lu Ren stood firm, patted the dust on his clothes and Rubble, and looked up at Mahoraga's face without eyes and nose.
"As long as the attack doesn't kill it instantly, it can adapt and become immune in a very short time."
"The more times you hit it with the same attack, the weaker the effect becomes until it is completely ineffective."
"In the process, it will also evolve corresponding countermeasures based on the characteristics of the enemy. For example, when it was chasing me just now, it not only adapted to my speed, but also began to predict my turning route during the tracking process."
"It is impossible to kill it by grinding its blood. Only by unleashing an explosion that exceeds its adaptive limit in an instant can it be completely killed."
He paused and took apart Mahoraga's performance in the two battles.
"In the battle just now, Ice Empress froze it for the first time, allowing it to adapt to Ultimate Ice, so Ice Empress's subsequent attacks will no longer have a fatal effect on it."
"But in addition to the power of Ice Empress, my Pure Love Cannon also has the power of my Cursed Energy and Soul Power. The superposition of the three powers exceeds the range it can adapt to, so it can kill instantly with one blow."
"The second time I did it myself, I used the ultra-high-speed burst superimposed by Projection Sorcery. Hundreds of Black Flash hit simultaneously every second. It had no time to adapt to such high frequency, and the high-intensity continuous critical hits were shattered."
"When dealing with Mahoraga, we must pay attention to one principle: no delay, no room for leeway, kill with one strike."
"Of course, unless you have multiple ability output methods, such as taking Ice Empress as an example. If Ice Empress's Ultimate Ice is adapted, then you can also use the fire attribute ability to kill it instantly with one hit."
"Mahoraga is too late to adapt to two attacks with completely different attributes at the same time. This is also a way to defeat it."
"After adapting to immunity, it will be almost difficult for Mahoraga to die. You have to use abilities it has never adapted to.
"So Mahoraga is also called the output quality inspector. As long as you fail to kill it in the first wave, then you don't want to kill it in the next time. Even if the god comes, it will be difficult to kill."
"Because by that time, it has adapted to all the attack methods you can use, and you are just a toy in front of it."
"No wonder you refused to stop and fight it head-on in the previous battle. Instead, you kept accelerating and accelerating.
Snow Empress nodded slightly, a hint of understanding flashed in his sky-blue eyes.
A faint hint of appreciation appeared on her cold face.
"You didn't plan to fight a protracted battle with it from the beginning. You were accumulating strength while closing the distance. When the speed reached a level that it couldn't bear, you used the strongest explosive move to end the battle."
"You are quite aware of its weaknesses. It takes time to adapt, and your explosion can be so fast that it has no time to adapt. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger."
"That's right, you can't delay when fighting Mahoraga. The longer you delay, the lower your chances of winning. There is no upper limit to its ability to adapt. In theory, as long as you give it enough time and enough attacks to adapt, it can even evolve exclusive abilities to restrain any enemy."
Lu Ren moved his sore wrist.
"The only Achilles heel is a one-time burst. Kill it before it even has time to make its first turn Dharma Wheel."
At this time, Ice Empress also floated out from Sea of Consciousness.
She crossed her arms to her chest, Twin Tails swaying gently in the night wind, Orange-Gold's eyes were full of wonder and fear, she stared at Mahoraga for a long time, and couldn't help but said, "Where did you find this kind of Monster?"
"It can adapt to all attacks, evolve if you can't kill it, and become immune if you evolve. This is too perverted!"
"Compared with it, the so-called Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in Star Dou Great Forest are considered mild. I have lived Four Hundred Thousand Years, and I have never seen such a thing that can drive people to death without relying on cultivation, but purely on mechanism."
Just now she swore that Mahoraga was not as good as Kurourushi. Now after witnessing the complete process of the ambush battle with her own eyes, she has completely retracted that comment.
Kurourushi still needs to rely on sneak attacks and areas to slowly wear down the opponent, but Mahoraga only needs to stand there and take a beating, and after taking the beating, he can counterattack.
The proper mechanism is weird.
"What do you think?" Lu Ren asked instead without answering.
Ice Empress pursed his lips and did not continue to ask. He just snorted and turned his head to the side.
Now she was asking for trouble.
Having known Lu Ren for so long, she has long been accustomed to this guy's mystery.
Every time I asked him something, he would either keep it secret, guess, or just change the subject.
Anyway, he has too many secrets to count, including this one.
