Sky Shadow finally unleashed his final attack—Fate Star Explosion, the ultimate technique he comprehended within an interdimensional space-time. At the cost of exhausting all of his physical strength, this move was never his preferred resolution, especially when the effectiveness of the attack on the Bizarre entity was still unknown. To recklessly use it under such conditions was unwise, for both Sky Shadow himself and the team as a whole.
However, as the Bizarre entity repeatedly displayed its horrifying power, Sky Shadow came to believe that aside from Fate Star Explosion, nothing else could possibly harm it. He carefully weighed the decision of whether or not to use this technique. The hesitation stemmed from considering multiple factors, as he was the team's main combatant.
If he depletes all his strength, only Roland would be left to carry the battle, which undeniably would result in a dire struggle. No matter how exceptional Roland was, she required someone to coordinate and support her efforts.
Although Mengdie was not weak, her proficiency in Body Technique alone might not even penetrate the Bizarre entity's defenses. Relying on her mysterious Xuan-men arts wasn't realistic either, as Sky Shadow was well aware that the Bizarre being existed as an embodiment of pure energy. It might even absorb other energy, making Mengdie's abilities potentially counterproductive.
This scenario would significantly decrease the team's chances of survival.
This decision wasn't clouded by emotion. In truth, despite his apparent anger, Sky Shadow was thinking with a clear head. Ever since his Unparalleled Strike had proven utterly ineffective, he had already formed a judgment—the Bizarre entity's combat power was likely hovering around ten million.
The upper limit of his previous attack was also ten million, yet it couldn't even breach the creature's defenses. At that moment, only one conclusion occurred to him: even if Roland's strength were extraordinary and enigmatic, it wouldn't surpass Unparalleled Strike's power by much. Based on this logical deduction, Sky Shadow arrived at an answer he was unwilling to accept.
They might truly be unable to defeat the Bizarre entity.
The only thing that might deal actual damage or even destroy the Bizarre entity was the ultimate secret technique he had grasped in another dimension. After much deliberation, Sky Shadow finally resolved to use the trump card—Fate Star Explosion. Even if exhausting his strength was the price, it was better than gradual depletion.
When it came to a war of attrition, none of the people present—not the hefty man, nor the young Feng Yi, nor even the First-Order Blade Warrior—could hold out against the indomitable Bizarre entity. Not even Feng Yi, with his combat power capped at a million, could alter the outcome. Given this, trying to cooperate with Roland for a prolonged battle was pointless; instead, it was better to seize the remaining strength he had left and wager everything on this explosive attack. Though risky, it was Sky Shadow's only choice under the circumstances.
As an adversary, the Bizarre entity clearly didn't anticipate Sky Shadow's ability to unleash an attack of such terrifying magnitude. Based on its understanding, Sky Shadow's upper limit was high—perhaps even beyond two million—but in its wildest imaginations, it didn't expect him to maintain power at the three-million mark, which was already surprising enough. Compared to Sky Shadow, the Bizarre entity feared Roland more, and Feng Yi, undeniably, even more.
Feng Yi's magnetic field strength was capable of suppressing it. However, he had died long ago, and to see him revived by some unforeseen means and appear on this planet was completely unexpected.
As for Roland, the Bizarre entity feared her because, from beginning to end, Roland demonstrated an unwavering composure in every battle, regardless of her opponent. It hadn't been able to find clear evidence of Roland's true level of strength from any source, which only fueled its apprehension toward her.
Both Feng Yi and Roland caused the Bizarre entity to feel justified fear, yet it never anticipated that Sky Shadow would erupt with such overpowering energy in this critical moment.
The Bizarre entity didn't possess a Combat Power Tester, making it impossible to estimate just how horrifying this attack was based on energy levels alone. Yet, the waves of energy emitted clearly exposed its suffocating, destructive potential. At first, the Bizarre entity merely observed, watching closely to see what tricks Sky Shadow had up his sleeve.
And then, it sensed a presence so dangerous it set even its own nerves on edge. As the Bizarre entity's shock and fear grew, it began to disregard the movements of the others in the distance. This allowed them to retreat to several kilometers away, a region of relative safety, yet the Bizarre entity paid them no mind, its focus entirely consumed by the devastating energy released around Sky Shadow!
It was undeniable—this energy had reached a threshold that could absolutely hurt it. However, at this juncture, the Bizarre entity was trapped in indecision; it couldn't leave, nor could it stay. For it knew Sky Shadow wasn't gathering energy without the ability to unleash it—on the contrary, the longer the accumulation, the stronger the attack would grow. If it fled, its body would immediately become the target of Sky Shadow's lightwave strike.
Even with all its power, escaping this attack was impossible because Sky Shadow's energy was already formidable enough to guarantee a lock-on effect if it attempted to retreat.
With the energy lightwave traveling at light-speed, no matter how fast its movements were, it couldn't possibly evade the lock-on instantaneously.
Choosing not to escape meant resigning itself to potentially endure an assault of incomprehensible destructive force.
Standing still and allowing Sky Shadow to strike was clearly unrealistic. Regardless of its usual arrogance, laughter, or disdain, it could only truly afford such behavior if Sky Shadow's attack posed no threat. Yet, if it realized the lightwave truly endangered it, the Bizarre entity would certainly not remain idle and unresponsive.
