Chen Mo's right fist, covered in black and red armor, slammed into Xiao's chest.
Boom!
The golden light on Xiao's body surface instantly caved in, and dense golden patterns flashed wildly, attempting to absorb all the kinetic energy carried by this punch.
But this time, too much power surged in.
The golden patterns had only lit up halfway when the fist pierced through the energy defense, breaking Xiao's sternum and causing his back to bulge violently.
"Puff!"
Fresh blood spurted from Xiao's mouth.
His body transformed into a golden afterimage, plummeting rapidly from tens of thousands of meters in the sky. He smashed through the clouds along the way, leaving a straight white trail of air behind him.
Xiao's eyes widened.
He was clearly still absorbing the energy from that punch.
The absorption rate couldn't keep up with the influx of power; the remaining kinetic energy passed directly through the defenses and acted on his body.
This guy was just holding back his strength?!
Just as Xiao Gang realized this, his body crashed into the ice sheet.
boom!
The ice layer within a radius of several kilometers collapsed simultaneously, and huge cracks spread in all directions. The center of the ice surface exploded completely, and seawater carrying ice fragments surged hundreds of meters high.
Xiao crashed through the ice and sank into the sea.
He continued to fall in the dark sea until he crashed into a protruding rock on the seabed, which stopped his descent.
His chest was completely sunken.
Xiao gritted his teeth and forcibly extracted the energy stored in his body. The broken bones began to reset, and the damaged internal organs were slowly repaired in the golden light.
Before his injuries could heal, a figure appeared in front of him.
"Charging complete."
Chen Mo clenched his fist. "Now we need to test if the battery will explode."
A fierce glint flashed in Xiao's eyes, and he thrust out with both palms simultaneously.
The energy accumulated within his body suddenly erupted.
A golden beam of light tore through the seawater, heading straight for Chen Mo's chest. The surrounding seawater was instantly evaporated, forming an ever-expanding vacuum zone.
Chen Mo did not dodge.
He charged forward, bathed in golden light, and slammed his fist down.
The golden beam of light split open from the middle, and Xiao's arms exploded into a cloud of blood mist. A fist landed on his shoulder, slamming him back into the sea.
Large-scale rock strata collapsed.
Xiao roared, his body suddenly flipped over, and he kicked Chen Mo in the chin. All the energy compressed in his leg was released, forcefully blasting Chen Mo out of the sea.
He rushed out immediately after him.
Two figures passed through the seawater one after the other and returned to mid-air.
Xiao grabbed Chen Mo's shoulders with both hands and slammed his knees into Chen Mo's chest repeatedly. Each impact created a burst of golden energy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Chen Mo remained completely still.
That's it?
He looked down at Xiao and said, "Your battery level display isn't very accurate."
Xiao's expression changed.
Chen Mo raised his elbow and slammed it hard into his back.
Xiao fell again.
Just before his body hit the ice, he forcefully swerved, skimming the surface of the sea for thousands of meters. Energy surged through his body to his back, repairing his recently fractured spine.
The recovery speed is slow.
An injury that would normally heal in a single breath now took several seconds to repair.
Not only that, but gaps also appeared in the golden veins beneath his skin.
Several lines connecting the chest and limbs completely broke off and never lit up again.
For the first time, Xiao felt fear.
He never imagined that he would be pushed to his limit by energy.
For him, artillery fire is food, radiation is food, and heat and electricity are also food. As long as energy exists in the outside world, he can continue to grow stronger.
But Chen Mo's food.
It seemed to be a gluttonous feast with no end in sight.
The more he ate, the closer he got to death.
"Daydreaming is not a good habit."
Chen Mo's voice suddenly came from behind him.
Xiao suddenly turned around to deal with it, but Chen Mo's fist was already in front of him.
Bang!
Half of Xiao's face instantly collapsed.
His body flew backward along the sea surface, the force of his punch following closely behind, sweeping directly across the distant ice cap. Large sections of ice shattered, and broken icebergs were hurled into the air.
Chen Mo caught up again and kicked him high into the air.
As Xiao Gang ascended into the clouds, Chen Mo appeared above him, clasped his fists together, and slammed them heavily into Xiao Gang's chest.
A deafening roar echoed between heaven and earth.
Xiao plummeted from the sky again, the heat and kinetic energy that his body couldn't absorb bursting outwards. Golden flames enveloped his entire body, distorting the air in his path.
The ice sheet below was covered by high temperatures.
The thick ice sheet rapidly cracked and melted, sending large plumes of white vapor into the sky. Immediately afterwards, Xiao crashed into the sea, the impact sending tens of thousands of tons of seawater high into the air.
Boiling seawater poured down from the sky.
A torrential downpour began over the Arctic Ocean.
The ice sheet was constantly disappearing under the force of the strong winds, high temperatures, and waves. Looking around, the once continuous white ice sheet had broken up in large parts, leaving only scattered ice floes rolling with the waves.
Xiao emerged from the sea, his body no longer recognizable as human.
His right arm was twisted backward, his chest was covered in cracks, and golden light was constantly leaking from the wounds.
Chen Mo threw a punch.
Xiao raised his left hand to block, and his arm broke on the spot. But he didn't back down; his right fist still slammed towards Chen Mo's face.
He had no way out; running away would only hasten his death.
He can only continue absorbing energy. If given a little more time, he will have the opportunity to release all the energy in his body.
Xiao's fist slammed into Chen Mo's cheek.
Chen Mo tilted his head and reached out to grab his ankle.
"Finally, the test results are in."
Xiao's pupils suddenly contracted.
Chen Mo swung his arm and flung him into the sea.
"Your appetite is only so big."
Boom!
Xiao was hammered into the Deep.
A massive depression, several kilometers in diameter, appeared on the sea surface, and the surrounding seawater rushed in. Xiao smashed through layers of rock, and the remaining golden patterns on his body gradually faded away.
Chen Mo gave chase.
Amidst the churning seawater, he grabbed Xiao's shoulder.
Golden light immediately gathered on Xiao's body, forming the final layer of defense. However, Chen Mo's five fingers pierced directly into the golden light, and the black and red armor continued to press forward.
Click.
The golden defense was torn apart by bare hands.
Chen Mo's five fingers dug into Xiao's shoulder bone, and he exerted force as the blood gushed out.
Tear!
His shoulder, along with half an arm, was forcibly torn off.
Xiao's body convulsed violently, but the golden light in his eyes did not go out.
He stared intently at Chen Mo, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.
Since we can't absorb it anymore, then we won't absorb it.
The next moment, all the energy within Xiao's body erupted simultaneously; he was going to fight to the death.
