Chapter 217 A Different Use Of Chaotic Empowerment
The intense combat started again as Arkhen pumped air from his legs to gain a burst of speed to change his moving direction and then pumped air from his right hand to abruptly change his flying direction to dodge Gard\'s skill shot, which was a burst of electrified water bullets.
After dodging those rather dangerous electrified water bullets that could paralyze him, Arkhen formed a fist and hit Gard\'s head squarely.
*Boom…*
Gard was smacked on the platform from the air.
"Fortunately, your body stats are not that high, hahaha. I am not hurt," Gard said with a laugh as he flew up again.
Arkhen adopted a speechless expression. If he used his true strength, he could probably crush this fatty into meat paste.
\'Can I only use this chaos force to strengthen my body? I think I should be able to use it to empower my skills as well. Let me try,\' Arkhen thought. He didn\'t want to break the seal but also didn\'t want to let this chaos force go to waste.
He could disperse it, but he wanted to make use of it.
[It could be possible. The details in the description of skills don\'t display the true potential and all possible uses of said skills].
Arkhen nodded as he saw incoming fatty flying at him while charging his trunk and dodged.
\'I\'ll try to empower my <Demonic Grasp> skill and grab this fatty,\' Arkhen thought as he tried to flow the chaos force into the execution of the <Demonic Grasp> skill.
"Stop running, hahaha," Gard said as he released a dark brown condensed ball filled with potent power towards Arkhen before dashing towards him.
Arkhen let himself get hurt since he could feel that his <Chaos Empowerment> could convert that attack into chaos force based on the power he was sensing from that attack.
"Not again!" Gard shouted as he saw Arkhen absorbing his attack again. But before Gard could move, he felt something and tried to escape but a dark purple demonic hand grabbed him tightly!
"Haha, you know that I can break this skill," Gard said with a grin as he burst out with his power, but something strange happened.
The demonic hand grabbing him automatically dispersed into the air and disappeared.
\'So it failed, and the chaos force was also wasted,\' Arkhen thought with a wry smile. However, a glint passed through his eyes because he felt the possibility of success in that failure.
\'You are right, Velshi. I think I just need to find the correct way to imbue chaos force in my skills.\'
[And you can start that by finding out how that chaos force disrupted the structure of your demonic hand instead of empowering it].
\'Yep,\' Arkhen nodded as he got excited and wanted to accomplish this. Laughing, he said to Darg, "Come on! Attack me again."
[Daily Quest prompt: Complete the desire of successfully using chaos force to empower your skills].
\'Tsk. Another useless daily quest. But I\'ll try to complete it if possible,\' Arkhen internally clicked his tongue.
…
Arkhen\'s stamina was unlimited, so he continued fighting while changing his opponents.
It\'s been roughly five hours, but Arkhen was still fighting.
"Dude, how come he is not getting tired? He was taking breaks the last three days, but why not today?" Gard said as he lay flat on the wooden floor, all sweaty. He just finished his 2nd round of battle with Arkhen.
"He is experimenting with something. None of his skills worked properly since your first fight with him," Jeizy said with a wry smile. Jeizy was a 3rd class powerhouse so he never fought Arkhen except for pure close combat without using their full power. But they only fought a few times.
"Yeah. I feel like we are increasing our competition by helping him achieve whatever he is trying to accomplish," said Sushina. A girl looking in her twenties with red and white furry bunny ears. She was a 2nd class powerhouse and would be in the tournament as well.
Sushina wore a red traditional fantasy dress with tiny crystals and other ornaments beautifully embroidered on it. But this dress was actually her armor of sorts since it provided her protection and a layer of unique coating over her skin for defense.
"I wonder what he is trying to achieve," said Kelvin. A human male in his twenties wearing a ranger-type leather outfit. He was a 3rd class powerhouse, and he would usually fight Jeizy and the other two 3rd class powerhouses in this group.
On the platform, Arkhen would tell his opponents to attack him with their power, and then he would absorb the attacks to produce chaos force.
Everyone was still speechless at Arkhen\'s ability to absorb their attacks because damn it looked like a very easy and convenient way to defend.
Arkhen\'s goal was to use the chaos forces to empower his skills... Alas, he had yet to succeed even once. Moreover, he also broke his seal twice and had to renew it.
He could hold back in his attacks without the suppression of seal, but it couldn\'t be considered absolute suppression and control of his bodily prowess because his holding back was not a perfect and precise level of control.
In the blink of an eye, a whole day passed as Arkhen and Jeizy left the Hidden Dragon Den club at around 9 PM.
Jeizy was dead tired with his entire body aching. Arkhen was not tired, but his body was also aching with pain since he also took a lot of beating. Also, he was slightly mentally exhausted because his mental stamina was not unlimited.
"Bro, let\'s go and have a bath in Hell Springs as usual. I am kind of addicted to bathing there," Jeizy said with a grin as he pressed his painful shoulders.
"Yeah. That place is indeed very good," Arkhen said as he nodded. The hot spring pools there were magical and very relaxing. They heal the body and bring extreme comfort.
The only problem was that the place was expensive. It cost 1 medium-grade essence stone for three hours of stay.
For a private pool, it cost 2 medium-grade essence stones for three hours of stay. But They always chose a private pool, so they don\'t get disturbed by others after a day of intense training.
