Chapter 1402 - Undefeatable Enemy (1/2)

“What a c*nt! You’ve finally made your move!” Jiang Fei roared mentally when Bargh’s sudden attack was nullified.

“Oh no.”

Bargh was shocked. He had genuinely thought that Jiang Fei was the kind that never learned his place. That was a good enough encouragement for him to make his move against Jiang Fei when he showed off his prized possession. The mental attack was supposed to be followed by a series of physical attacks, but seeing as the original attack was completely useless, Bargh had to change his move set.

Bargh was a being from the planet Bjolnir. Psychic attacks were the bread and butter for every Bjolnian. That attack was supposed to be his forte. Many had perished from that single mind attack without knowing what happened. Perhaps it was because of the fact that he was older, weaker, that caused his killing technique to fail. His greatest attack was only akin to a stone thrown into the violent sea, a tame ripple without much effect on the boy.

“Is he strong because of certain tools, or is he hiding his strength?” Bargh thought to himself, starting to calculate his next move. If Jiang Fei had been able to block that psychic attack because of an external assistance, Bargh would have a better chance at defeating him. The man had over 10,000,000 combat level. Even without using his psychic attacks, he could still defeat Jiang Fei via traditional means of attack.

On the off chance that Jiang Fei was indeed strong and able to survive the psychic attack with his own ability, the entire battle was already over. A young boy such as he must have been so strong that he had to hide his true potential or he would only be inviting trouble.

“Lord Bargh, you have done wrong by attacking me without first stating your reason. If you want a fight, I, Jiang Fei, will welcome you.”

After the taunt, Jiang Fei unleashed his self-imposed limiter. Energy crackled around him while the Blackhole Core and the Omnisurge fed him power. His combat level increased from over 2,000,000 to over 8,000,000.

“Hur hur hur… I was only testing you. A mere test…”

Bargh tried laughing it off albeit awkwardly. His mind however, was panicking. The man had clearly wronged the boy and even though the two hadn’t engaged in battle, both recognized the intentions harbored by the other.

When Jiang Fei’s combat level finally stabilized at 8,000,000, Bargh calmed down immediately. He might have had suddenly gained an exploding amount of power but he was still hovering at the region where he did not pose a threat to Bargh.

Combat level, after exceeding 10,000,000, delivered attack potency so strong that even a 9,999,999 combat level fighter could not handle. Jiang Fei was only a young boy of 8,000,000 combat level. An impressive feat nonetheless but an insufficient one.

Bargh was now calm and composed. His killing intent only grew stronger. He saw Jiang Fei not as a fighter but only a mobile, hardened safe box that he only needed to break open to obtain the treasure inside.

“A test? Perhaps I should do the same!” Jiang Fei hummed and hurled his fist out. A hot plasma blade ignited as the fist zoomed through the air, surging with the force of Metal granted by Origin Force, heading toward Bargh’s forehead.

“Be careful with that. You don’t want to swing it that hard lest you hurt yourself.”

The tiny scar in the middle of his forehead opened slightly. It happened in an instant, an event so fast that Jiang Fei could not have anticipated it. His skin, starting from the area around the scar, turned as black as graphite.

The blade that was aimed at his forehead was immediately blocked by his hand that swooped in at a speed at least 10 times that of Jiang Fei’s. Hot plasma discharge could be seen splitting away around his palm.

“What the–”

Jiang Fei was stunned. That was the last thing he would have imagined Bargh would do. How the blade of plasma was deflected like water put him on a whole other level of disbelief.

“You’re still young and have much to learn,” Bargh said with a smile. The third eye slowly opened wider and a black light flashed. What followed next, or rather, what came engulfing Jiang Fei entirely, was an aura saturated with killing intent.
