Chapter 221 : The Resurrection of the Phoenix
Before he finished speaking, Lin Mo's figure had already vanished from his original spot.
Phoenix Man's dynamic vision couldn't capture his movements at all; he only felt an indescribably terrifying pressure squeezing him from all directions.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The roar of the Emperor Engine exploded in his ears without warning.
The next moment, Lin Mo's figure appeared before him, incredibly close.
Phoenix Man could even clearly see his own terrified and comical puppet face reflected in Lin Mo's pupils.
"Well then, let's start with the first time."
A hand lightly pressed onto Phoenix Man's puppet head.
The next second, a terrifying, inexpressible force erupted from that hand.
Boom!!!
Phoenix Man's entire body was directly blasted into the ground, completely devoid of life.
[Fear from Phoenix Man, Energy Points +3500!]
A bottomless circular pit appeared in the ground beneath Lin Mo's feet.
The surrounding air was dead silent.
Lin Mo withdrew his hand and stood silently in place.
He knew this was just the beginning.
For a Phoenix Man, death is precisely the prelude to new life.
Sure enough, just a few seconds later, an eerie crimson light began to emanate from the pit below.
First, a spark, then turning into a wisp of flame, which then dramatically surged into a sky-high blaze.
A scorching wave swept out, and a new figure slowly resurrected from the raging inferno.
This time, Phoenix Man's appearance had drastically changed.
His physique was a full size larger than before, and his originally somewhat bulky puppet body became more robust, full of explosive power.
His aura also underwent an earth-shattering change, breaking through from the previous 'Ghost'-level ceiling to a completely new level—'Dragon-level'!
The ridiculous puppet texture on him completely disappeared, replaced by layers of dark red feathers that seemed to be burning like metal.
Phoenix Man's eyes also became more ferocious and brutal, filled with the flames of revenge and the arrogance of new life.
"Hahahaha! See, KING! This is my power!"
The resurrected Phoenix Man felt the new power surging within him and let out a manic laugh.
The fear of death had been replaced by a powerful sense of strength; he believed he had grasped the truth of invincibility.
"Every death makes me stronger! The more you kill me, the more endless my power becomes! Now, it's my turn!"
"Not bad." Lin Mo nodded, a satisfied expression on his face.
"The intensity has increased quite a bit, again."
"You bastard... on the verge of death, you still dare to look down on me!"
Phoenix Man's wild laughter abruptly stopped; Lin Mo's matter-of-fact attitude stung his newly inflated ego more than any mockery.
He felt an unprecedented humiliation!
"Be reduced to ashes! Phoenix Prominence Eruption!"
As a Dragon-level Monster, Phoenix Man's strength had undergone a qualitative leap.
With a flap of his wings, he transformed into a miniature sun, and countless high-energy flame rays rained down on Lin Mo from all directions, sealing off all his evasion space.
However, Lin Mo remained standing in place, not moving at all.
Just a split second before the fiery rain was about to touch his body, countless golden Energy Blasts materialized out of thin air around him.
The moment those violent high-energy rays touched the Energy Blasts, they vanished into thin air.
"How... how is this possible?! You bastard... how is your ability the same as that Homeless Emperor's!"
Phoenix Man's wild laughter completely froze on his face, replaced by shock and rekindled fear.
His proud, full-power attack couldn't even touch the opponent's clothes!
"No, he can't compare to you at all..." Phoenix Man muttered.
"The density and intensity of the attack are sufficient, but the penetrating power is still too poor."
Lin Mo continued his calm analysis, "Your energy is too dispersed."
As he spoke, he slowly raised his right hand, pointed his fingers like a sword, and gently swiped in Phoenix Man's direction.
A hair-thin energy blade silently cut through space, instantly traversing the distance between the two of them.
Pfft.
Phoenix Man's movements came to an abrupt halt.
His body, from head to toe, was smoothly split into two halves.
No blood flowed from the incision; instead, inextinguishable golden flames burned.
Then, the two halves of his body crashed to the ground, turning into two raging infernos.
Second death.
[Astonishment, confusion, and fear from Phoenix Man, Energy Points +8000!]
"Not at the limit yet..." Lin Mo muttered, looking at the two flames.
He knew that Phoenix Man's strongest form was the ultimate evolution into the "Phoenix Monster · Light Hawk Mode."
And now, he needed to play the role of Child Emperor, applying enough "pressure" to Phoenix Man to force him to evolve into his strongest form.
Sure enough, the flames gathered again.
"Roar—!!!"
Accompanied by an extremely angry roar, an even more hideous and terrifying figure emerged from the flames!
This time, he had completely shed the comical form of that humanoid puppet.
A man wearing a magnificent coat that seemed woven from liquid metal appeared in his place!
His face became stern, his eyes burned with platinum-gold flames, and his aura had clearly reached the mid-Dragon-level, and was still climbing!
"KING—!!!" He let out a roar filled with endless fury, "I'll burn you to ashes!"
"Now this is getting interesting."
Lin Mo's eyes finally lit up.
He could feel that the 'resurrection' law within the opponent's body, after this evolution, had become more active and clear than ever before.
Now is the time!
[Use 'Dragon-level Skill Copy Card'!]
[Target locked: Phoenix Man (Light Hawk Mode)]
[Specified copy ability: 'Phoenix Man's Resurrection Law']
Lin Mo gave the command with his mind.
The card shimmering with deep purple light in his consciousness space instantly transformed into a stream of light, merging into the deepest part of his soul.
In an instant, Lin Mo seemed to witness countless cycles of death and rebirth, understanding that peculiar law rooted in the essence of life, which defined "death" as "evolution."
[Copying... Law analysis 10%... 30%... 70%...]
[Ding! Copy successful!]
[Congratulations to the host for acquiring the skill: 'Phoenix Man's Resurrection'!]
[Skill description: When the host suffers fatal damage, this skill can be consumed to perform a full-status, on-the-spot resurrection. After resurrection, the body will undergo an adaptive evolution based on the type of damage received, and all attributes will be greatly enhanced.]
[Note: This resurrection is based on the law level. Only conceptual, law-based abilities can completely obliterate the host.]
It's done!
A surge of ecstasy welled up in Lin Mo's heart.
The value of such a life-saving divine skill could not be measured by emotional points.
As for conceptual abilities? So far, he had only seen them on his own [bad luck coin].
At this moment, Phoenix Man opposite him had gathered the strongest power of his life.
He transformed into a white pillar of light piercing through heaven and earth, crashing towards Lin Mo with world-destroying force.
"It's over, KING!"
