Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 816: Chapter 241: Duel (2)

He immediately closed his eyes, took a deep breath to adjust his state, while trying to position himself neither too close nor too far from Chen Ming.

He wouldn’t cause trouble for Chen Ming, nor would he delay Chen Ming’s timely rescue.

The battle between Psychics is certainly not something he can interfere with.

And just as the chaotic Spiritual Energy Fluctuation appeared, Chen Ming’s state became exceedingly calm.

He had long been accustomed to this level of fluctuation; these chaotic Spiritual Energy fluctuations could not cause him any effective interference.

But it was entirely different for that Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

In Chen Ming’s perception, the Spiritual Energy fluctuations pervading every corner of shadow in the surroundings suddenly underwent intense vibration and, after the vibration, dissipated.

All these fluctuations related to the Black Mist in the surroundings were due to this vibration.

At the same time, he also heard a cry of pain.

”Found you!”

Chen Ming turned towards the direction of the sound, and in that direction, the Stardust Level’s internal structure instantly melted into metallic liquid, paving a path leading towards the source of the sound.

And at the end of this path, there was a figure completely enveloped in raging Black Mist.

A large number of high-intensity spotlights were directly created by Chen Ming nearby, immediately drowning the Black Mist silhouette in a sea of light.

Under the illumination, the Black Mist constantly dissipated, gradually revealing the appearance of that Psychic.

But this Psychic was tightly wrapped in black clothing all over, with only a pair of eyes exposed, making it impossible to clearly discern his features.

But it’s okay, if you can’t see clearly, you don’t need to. Once a person is dead, it doesn’t matter what he looked like.

Chen Ming’s Spiritual Energy fluctuations continuously acted upon the spacecraft.

The room where the Black Mist Spirit Ability User was located was also rapidly changing, with a massive flow of metallic liquid rolling towards him like a mudslide.

But just then, the Portable Mental Fluctuation Generator in Chen Ming’s hand suddenly overloaded, emitting a scorched black smoke and halting its operation.

This was much shorter than the time he had estimated he could use it.

Chen Ming immediately realized this was because the effect of the Stone of Chaotic Words was inherently too powerful, completely different from when this generator used ordinary Stones of Whisper.

The device couldn’t withstand it.

After understanding the situation, Chen Ming furrowed his brows tightly and immediately used his Spiritual Energy to repair the item in his hand.

But in these brief seconds, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s arms, which were clenching his head, relaxed, and the thin and raging Black Mist around him gradually calmed down, once again enveloping the Psychic.

Before the Black Mist completely concealed his form, Chen Ming noticed that his gaze toward him held a trace of fear and, besides fear, pure hatred.

The Black Mist Spirit Ability User wielded a sword in his hand that had substance, completely different from the Black Mist arms wielded earlier, and dived into the shadows formed by the metallic liquid.

The next instant, he rushed out from the corner shadows of different rooms just opened by Chen Ming, thrusting his sword toward Chen Ming’s neck.

Chen Ming gripped his sword with one hand, swinging it to meet the blow.

The two swords collided.

This time, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User did not disperse like his Black Mist arms, but instead, engaged Chen Ming in a contest right there.

The two sides were stalemated for a while, but the strength provided by Chen Ming’s nanofiber suit gave him an advantage in terms of power.

The blade began to tilt toward the Black Mist Spirit Ability User.

However, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User suddenly retreated, his figure gradually vanishing.

Chen Ming pursued triumphantly, sweeping his sword across, leaving a trail of blood before the Black Mist Spirit Ability User completely disappeared.

He did not completely turn into a Black Mist that could not be hit.

In the next moment,

a dark silhouette once again appeared behind Chen Ming.

However, Chen Ming constantly maintained the perception of Spiritual Energy, without any delay, pivoting with the assistance of the enhanced physical traits provided by the nanofiber suit to meet him with a sword swing.

But this time, a black arm suddenly extended from the shadows on the ground behind him, raising the sword in its hand.

Fortunately, Chen Ming had anticipated this possibility just now, immediately sidestepping and twisting away from the Black Mist Spirit Ability User’s sword strike the moment he detected it.

The black arms on the ground couldn’t exist perpetually under strong light like the Black Mist Spirit Ability User himself; their existence was limited to a maximum of three seconds.

Just as Chen Ming had adjusted his position, dodging the black arms, the Black Mist Spirit Ability User closed in once again.

At the same time, more black arms reached out from any slightly dim position around him, all wielding dark swords aimed at his vital spots.

Solely relying on his reactions and physical prowess, he forcibly twisted away from the first round of black arms’ sword swings.

But soon, as the preceding round of black arms dissipated, more black arms swung their swords toward Chen Ming.

Unless his movements were three times faster, he definitely couldn’t extricate himself from all these swords now.

This scene made Chen Ming feel as if everything just now was merely a test, and the Black Mist Spirit Ability User had truly begun his attack only now.

Just by this one frame, Chen Ming believed he definitely couldn’t outmatch this Psychic in melee combat.

But he has other means to counterattack.

The Spiritual Energy fluctuating around Chen Ming’s body suddenly exploded, the intense spiritual energy impact scattering the black arms about to harm him.
