The Card Apprentice - Chapter397

The first lovely dark green starfish touched the golden energy cloak lightly, as soft as a cloud.

It was like a piece of cotton candy, sticking to the energy cloak as soon as it touched it.

At the same time, the spots of silver light inside the dark green starfish suddenly lit up, and the intense and dazzling silver light completely covered up the rich emerald green.

In the silver light, starfish kept sticking to Chen Mu's energy cloak one after another.

The intense silver light was so dazzling that Chen Mu couldn't open his eyes. Fortunately, he didn't need to open his eyes, and his perception could see through any changes.

Suddenly, his expression changed.

The energy flow in the apparatus suddenly increased!

Increasing the speed of energy flow was a very common thing.

Different tactics and different energy compositions required different amounts of energy to be consumed differently, so the speed at which the energy flowed within the apparatus would never be constant.

But the flow this time was completely different from before.

In a second or two, the speed of energy flow in the apparatus increased by eight times!

That was an extremely terrifying number. If it continued at that speed, it wouldn't be long before the energy of the power card in the apparatus would be exhausted.

Once the energy was exhausted, unless he could replenish the power card, Chen Mu would lose almost all his combat power!

Although Chen Mu was shocked, he didn't panic. He drew out a trace of perception to move forward along the flow of energy.

He wanted to see where the energy was being consumed.

Suddenly, Chen Mu opened his eyes abruptly, completely ignoring the dazzling silver light.

It was the starfish energy bodies stuck to the energy cloak!

They were sucking energy!

It was incredible that they could actually suck energy!

Chen Mu felt a chill in his heart. The energy bodies of the dark green starfish had such terrible characteristics under their cute appearance!

As the starfish on the energy cloak continued to increase, the speed of energy dissipation increased at an alarming rate.

That was a ruthless move!

In a battle between card artisans, the energy cloak was the most common tactical configuration.

The target of Dang Han's move wasn't the energy cloak, but the power card in the apparatus.

Once the adversary's power card was exhausted, he could only wait to be captured. It was like taking the firewood from under the pot.

No wonder Dang Han always had a sneer on his face, looking as though he had a card up his sleeve.

Making a prompt decision, Chen Mu snorted and removed the energy cloak.

The starfish that had lost their support all stuck to Chen Mu.

How could Chen Mu dare to let those starfish touch him?

With a light flick of his wrist, energy chains flew up and down, protecting him in the middle.

At this moment, the [Big Mudfish] was suddenly activated. His entire body was like a mudfish, continuously shaking a few times, and he was barely able to get out of the energy starfish's encirclement.

The gaps between the energy starfish were extremely small, and there was little room for him to maneuver around. To be able to escape so cleanly and efficiently, Chen Mu's outstanding evasive skills were on full display.

There was no lack of knowledgeable people among the onlookers. Suddenly, there was a gasp.

Zeng Yushan was relaxed and happy as he watched. He was full of praise. "Qiao Yuan's skills are really strange and unpredictable. What comes next will be interesting to see."

The others stared at him in awe.

They had seen many such imaginative and incredible performances at school.

But this was the first time they had seen such a brilliant evasion in actual combat.

Actual combat and acting are two different things. For acting, you have plenty of time to prepare and practice.

But in actual combat, you needed to decide on your next move in a split second without any hesitation.

If he failed, the most likely outcome would be death.

To be able to make such a brilliant evasion move in actual combat, Chen Mu immediately conquered the students of Moon Frost Island.

Dang Han's face changed slightly. He hadn't thought Chen Mu could actually rush out of such a dense encirclement.

But he quickly calmed down, and his face once again wore that cold smile.

Although he was temporarily out of danger, Chen Mu didn't feel the least bit excited.

Just now, in order to break free from the energy starfish's encirclement, the energy chain had touched an energy starfish.

Not a trace could be seen on the surface of the energy chain, but Chen Mu was clear that the stability of the energy structure had been greatly reduced when it had made contact with the energy starfish.

That was a hidden danger. For a high-precision energy body like the energy chain, any change in its structure could bring about quite a big change.

What made him feel even worse was that although he had managed to break free in time, the power card in his apparatus had less than half of its energy left.

That also meant he had to finish the battle before the power card was exhausted. He had to finish it quickly.

He hadn't thought that his adversary's seemingly light move would immediately put him in a dangerous situation.

Chen Mu smiled bitterly to himself, but his willpower hadn't wavered in the slightest. He was like a barrel of gasoline that had been ignited, and the intense battle had scorched him until his body was trembling. It had also raised his perceptual acuity to a level he wouldn't normally have dared to imagine.

Staring at the cold smile at the corner of Dang Han's mouth, Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat, and his pupils abruptly contracted.

In midair, without any leverage, he suddenly made his move without warning!

Waveform High Frequency Evasion!

The crisp sound of explosions filled the air, and Chen Mu, who was in midair, drew a series of afterimages that were both real and fake!

Just as he moved, two flashes of green light suddenly shot out from the ground, and Chen Mu narrowly dodged them as though he had foresight.

That tactical move, which had once caused Mo Ta and Jin Yin to suffer, once again surprised everyone.

Dang Han, who had been calm all along, finally changed his expression, and he retreated quickly!

Two human silhouettes streaked across the sky, one after the other, and the sound of explosions in the air numbed everyone's ears. The continuous, ghostly afterimages were so clear in the sunlight that it sent chills down anyone's spine.

Every time the sound of explosions in the air caused Chen Mu's speed to increase by a fraction. He was getting faster and faster, like a fierce and overbearing bolt of black lightning streaking across the horizon!

That ugly face zoomed in on Dang Han's eyes at an alarming speed, and a flash of panic flashed through Dang Han's gloomy eyes.

He roared, and an emerald green, flat, circular energy shield swiftly appeared between him and Chen Mu.

"Bind!"

Like a voice from beyond the heavens, it was indifferent and full of pressure, and the energy fluctuations in the air suddenly rose upward!

The energy chains surrounding his body danced wildly, like sharks smelling blood, turning into dozens of golden lights and sweeping toward Dang Han.

Dang Han grunted, and the emerald green energy shield in front of him spun rapidly, just like a grinding wheel spinning at high speed.

As soon as the energy chains touched the rapidly spinning energy shield, they were all bounced off.

From that, it could be seen how rich Dang Han's battle experience was.

That move consumed very little perception and energy, but both the timing and the position were just right.

He hugged his knees and curled up into a ball, hiding behind the energy shield and moving his body from time to time to dodge the attacks coming from behind.

Chen Mu wasn't discouraged. On the contrary, his eyes suddenly lit up. Opportunity!

It looked like Dang Han's move could be described as exquisite, but Chen Mu had caught his weakness in the first instant!

The curled up Dang Han had to rely on the spinning energy shield for cover, which also caused his speed to be incomparably slow.

Chen Mu quietly pulled out a section of the energy chain. His expression was solemn as the five fingers of his right hand suddenly closed into a cone, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Pierce!"

The golden light that filled the sky suddenly converged, and a sharp and threatening golden light brought with it a strange shriek.

The sharp shriek was different from the crisp and dense explosions just now, as though it wanted to drill straight into people's ears.

That was one of the two new moves he had comprehended during his time at the Chichi Trading Firm.

The power of that move was so great that the faces of the people around him changed!

The gazes of Zeng Yushan and the others exploded as they stared fixedly at the field.

Dang Han's face was ashen. He had already been firmly locked in by Chen Mu's perception. If he retreated then, he would certainly be pierced through.

A hint of viciousness flashed through his eyes, and his pupils suddenly dilated.

Pop, pop, pop! Two clouds of bloody mist suddenly burst out of his collarbone.

Spots of blood covered his face, looking extremely hideous and frightening.

Agitated by that, his perception suddenly became extremely turbulent, and the feeling of helplessness just now abruptly lightened.

Without hesitation, he set up another layer of energy shield in front of him like lightning, behind the first layer of shield.

Layer after layer, he didn't pause at all, as though he had made up his mind to set up an impenetrable bastion in front of him!

The golden light that tore through the sky hit the center of the outermost shield with incredible accuracy.

Ping! With a crisp sound, the shield shattered in an instant, turning into a cloud of dark green fragments mixed with specks of silver light. It was very beautiful.

In that cloud of fragments, the undiminished golden light touched the second layer of shield.

Ping! Ping! Ping! The sound of shattering was even more concentrated and crisp than the sonic booms just now, as though mocking how futile and useless Dang Han's actions were.

Dang Han didn't seem to be affected, still madly setting up the energy shield, except for the imperceptible flash of surprise in his eyes.

The ninth and tenth energy shields appeared at the same time. This time, he set up two energy shields at the same time.

Just as he was about to finish, the golden light had already penetrated the eighth energy shield and touched the ninth energy shield!

What a powerful piercing!

The onlookers were aghast. To be able to pierce through eight energy shields in one breath, what terrifying piercing power!

In their eyes, Dang Han's move was nothing more than a final struggle. It could be imagined that the energy chain would pierce through the last two energy shields without any suspense, and then it would cleanly and neatly pierce through Dang Han.

There wasn't enough time left for Dang Han to set up another energy shield!

An ace of a generation was about to lose his life there. Some felt pity, some were excited, some were terrified, and some were indifferent.

However, the crisp shattering sound that everyone had imagined didn't appear. Instead, it was replaced by a booming explosion!

The huge explosion startled the unprepared crowd.

The shockwave formed by the explosion spread out with a rumble!

The sudden explosion caught Chen Mu off guard, and the powerful shockwave ruthlessly pushed him far away.

At the same time, a silhouette took advantage of the huge impact and disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye, like an arrow released from a bow.

Some people with sharp eyes caught a glimpse of Dang Han, who was covered in wounds and fleeing in a sorry state, with half a thin energy shield floating in front of him!
