The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

Ji Chen quietly savored the power he gained after the evolution.

Meanwhile, the other apostles in the ecological park had already seen Yoda's current form.

It was a colossal beast, bluish-gray in color, thirty meters long and twenty meters tall.

Its head has sharp blue horns, and its light blue eyes are sharp and bright, containing an arrogance that can tear the sky apart. Its mouth reveals sharp teeth.

Its body is covered with spiked armor, with sharp, blade-like armor tips, and its limbs are thick and powerful.

Its back and tail have blade-like structures, and the end of its tail has a yellow-orange sword spike surrounded by lightning.

It has completely broken away from the image of the electric eel as a primitive species; it is no longer a fish, but a majestic creature with the appearance of a dragon.

Name: Yoda

[Talents: Water Walker, Electromagnetic Walker]

Skills: Electric Push Lv3, Adaptive Evolution Lv3, Thunder Tail Whip Lv4, Sword Armor Lv1, Lightning Strike Lv4, Electric Net Lv4

[Electric Grid Shuttle Lv1, Celestial Magnetic Wheel Lv1, Sword Dance Lv1]

[Base stats: 850/1120 (Tier 3)]

【攻击45→63，防御46→70，速度27→50，能量39→70，精神50→87】

Powerful, incomparably powerful.

The impressive panel undoubtedly proclaimed that he was already extremely close to Chu Junhui's panel attributes when he first entered the fourth tier, if you add the boost from the electric current and his massive size.

With Yoda's current strength, he is already capable of competing with Chu Junhui at that time.

The thick sword tail swayed in the air, and in an instant, invisible sword energy burst forth, tearing a deep ravine into the solid riverbed.

His original scale armor has been fully upgraded to [Sword Armor], allowing any part of the armor on his body to transform into a deadly blade at any time.

Even more terrifying is that the sword armor also possesses a unique "self-tempering" mechanism.

The old sword armor that falls off due to battle or metabolism can be reabsorbed by the main sword armor, and its essence is fed back to the entire body of armor, achieving permanent growth in defensive and offensive attributes.

Sword dance enhances his physical agility and allows him to store the kinetic energy dissipated during his massive movements, transforming it into sword energy.

In the heat of battle, sword dance can be further elevated, absorbing the impact energy generated by attacks from both sides and making it one's own.

As the battle raged on, the sword energy around him was as dense as a sudden rain, crisscrossing and forming an absolute death zone.

As for the Zhou Tian Magnetic Wheel, it is a long-range attack method prepared by Ji Chen. It can use the magnetic field generated by the electric current to create an electromagnetic wheel that can cut through everything.

"Wow!"

The strange tree was uprooted with a whoosh, its dense root system quickly twisting into two large legs. Its branches and leaves trembled as it "ran" closer, eager to offer its first act of flattery:

"Great King of Lightning! How majestic you are! With your mere third-tier body, you already display unparalleled kingly aura, truly making this little tree... no, making all things in heaven and earth bow down in admiration!"

"These sharp swords and armor, this flowing physique, these muscles bulging like iron—you are simply a born overlord..."

Ji Chen remained unmoved, standing still and letting the strange tree admire and praise him.

Qi Shu was not disappointed at all; his excitement was palpable.

It could feel the help that the last exotic fruit it was given away brought it, and it had already vaguely sensed the power of the mutated beast in front of it from the feedback brought by the exotic fruit.

"Great King of Thunder, please accept the sapling's loyalty. I will strive to bear more fruit to make you even greater."

Ji Chen lowered his eyes, looking at the strange tree at his feet whose branches and leaves were rustling wildly, and the electric current was silently coursing through his body.

He naturally enjoyed others' flattery, but he remained unmoved by this clumsy attempt at praise, simply speaking calmly:

"How long will it take for your fruit to bear another one?"

That is, the time when the Strange Tree will evolve next.

That is, the time when the Strange Tree will evolve next.

During this evolution process, Ji Chen was able to clearly feel the effects of the alien fruit.

He had a feeling that even if he didn't learn new skills on his own, this evolution, thanks to the involvement of the alien fruit, would allow him to comprehend skills other than sword dance.

It should still be a skill closely related to water.

However, Ji Chen ultimately blocked the path for the emergence of new skills.

After all, leaving one skill slot open for a skill that evolves autonomously is enough. This is an experimental micro-innovation that may bring him unexpected benefits.

However, if there are two or more new skills, the uncertainty of the new skills is too great, which could easily disrupt Ji Chen's original plan and lead to unexpected risks.

At this moment, Qishu spoke.

"Great King of Lightning, the little tree will be evolving in the next couple of days. If you like the little tree, you'll get some new fruit to eat in a couple of days."

With Ji Chen's extraordinary evolutionary assistance, the bottleneck that was about to evolve was almost completely removed, the clouds parted and the evolution was just around the corner.

Qi Shu felt that it had encountered a rare beast that was worth going all in on, and it insisted on clinging tightly to Ji Chen's leg, refusing to let go even if it meant death.

Ji Chen calmly stepped out of the stream and strolled onto the bank.

"Since that's the case, I'll reluctantly accept you. However, you can only stay in one place from now on and you can't run around."

The exotic fruit has a great effect, and Ji Chen really wants it. He can also see that the strange tree seems to be able to get some benefits from him, the one who consumes it, so he put forward this seemingly harsh, but actually very harsh, condition.

The strange fruit does have some side effects, making Ji Chen find the Strange Tree much more pleasing to the eye than before, but this side effect can be eliminated as long as Ji Chen changes to the perspective of an apostle.

Therefore, he was not afraid of the strange tree; it was merely an auxiliary mutated plant that could affect his apostle.

Although Ji Chen's conditions were harsh, they were nothing to Qi Shu, who was already prepared to go all in. It only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

It was forcibly brought here by Ji Chen in the first place, and there had already been signs of imprisonment before. Now it is just being brought to the fore, so it is not a loss.

"Hey, Green... Yoda, your transformation is really frightening."

The chimpanzee strolled over, its voice filled with undisguised amazement.

At this moment, Ji Chen's height was approaching its chest, and what was even more terrifying was the extremely dense and refined body. Every seemingly casual step or tail flick created a commotion and sense of power that was almost as great as its own.

The blue behemoth simply stood there calmly, yet an aura of supreme power and majesty naturally emanated from it, causing the beast to involuntarily feel a tremor in its heart and move it to look away.

The chimpanzee clearly sensed a significant threat from Ji Chen, especially as he drew closer, its entire body felt as if it were being pricked by needles.

The chimpanzee felt like it had entered a den of monsters. First, Ji Chen's powerful form brutally defeated it, and then a mutated beast that had just advanced to the third tier left it bewildered.

The dramatic increase in his size completely changed the world as Ji Chen saw it.

The strange tree that was once taller than him and required him to look up to it now has branches and leaves that only touch his ankles, as if he could crush it into green dust with the slightest step.

The chimpanzee that had once been as imposing as a small mountain and instilled a great sense of oppression in him was now only a head taller than him, and their sizes had become extremely similar.

He can now look at things at eye level, without having to look up.

"good."

Ji Chen looked around with self-satisfaction, feeling quite pleased with himself.

"Old Black, let's wrestle. It'll be a good opportunity for us to get used to our evolved power."

The chimpanzee was startled, and then couldn't help but think that Ji Chen was arrogant. He had only just evolved and already wanted to challenge it, the king of beasts. Was he getting too cocky?

"If you don't discharge electricity."

Although he thought Ji Chen was a bit arrogant, the chimpanzee remembered the sense of crisis he had felt before and decided to play it safe first.

Ji Chen's sword swayed, carving furrows in the ground. He was calm and confident. "Come on, let's compare our physical strength."

The chimpanzee's eye twitched; it felt utterly underestimated.

It is a silverback gorilla, and its strength is unmatched by almost any creature on land. In the wild, it is fearless even against lions and tigers.

At this moment, it was repeatedly provoked by Ji Chen, a mutated beast that had just evolved to the third tier. Its dissatisfaction was rising, and it was ready to give Ji Chen a hard time.

The two giant beasts found an open space, stared at each other for a moment, and then Ji Chen spoke:

"My owner told you before, right? You're my animal now, and I'm your new boss."

The chimpanzee was grinding his teeth; I sensed there was something more to his words.

"I know you're not convinced, but if I win or it's a draw today, you'll have to truly submit. From now on, you'll do whatever I ask. Do you agree?"

"And what if you lose?"

The chimpanzee saw this as an opportunity and quickly added conditions.

"Then I'll get the owner to let you go!"

Is this really true?

Faced with the excited chimpanzee, Ji Chen didn't say much, but responded with his actions.

He exerted force with his hind legs and raised his forelimbs high. His hands, which had evolved to resemble dragon claws, gripped tightly onto the chimpanzee's thick wrists, and the struggle began.

Its muscles tensed instantly like steel cables, and terrifying force collided violently through its limbs.

The chimpanzee let out an excited growl, unleashing its innate, species-maximal brute strength like a torrent, which pressed down on Ji Chen's forelimbs, causing them to tremble slightly and his joints to make a faint sound of strain.

Compared to the fourth-level chimpanzee, he was inferior in strength.

But Ji Chen did not lose heart. The electric current propelled his body, stimulating his cells and muscles to exert force, allowing him to unleash his full power.

Ji Chen's dragon claws gripped his opponent tightly, the scales and fur rubbing together with a teeth-grinding sound, and the ground beneath his feet kept sinking and cracking due to the immense pressure.

The two behemoths collided like small mountains, just like two giant ships colliding in a naval battle. In just a short moment, the earth cracked open in the struggle.

However, Ji Chen's super burst of power only caused some trouble for the chimpanzee at the beginning.

But as the chimpanzee got serious and used its skills, Ji Chen was suddenly at a disadvantage, being pushed back by the chimpanzee like a plow.

He clearly felt an almost irresistible, immense force emanating from the other's wrist, causing his bones to creak and groan.

In terms of pure strength, he was indeed at a disadvantage.

but.

The terrifying kinetic energy generated by the collision of the two was instantly captured and transformed by the sword dance!

One, five, ten, a hundred—countless invisible sword energies suddenly appeared out of nowhere, like a death cage that suddenly contracted, slicing through the air between him and the chimpanzee, tearing the air apart with sharp, mournful cries.

At the same time, the upgraded adaptive evolution began to take effect.

Ji Chen felt his muscles burning hot, as if branded, and the microscopic structure was rapidly reorganizing and optimizing under the high pressure of actual combat.

His forelimbs swelled and became thicker at a visible speed, enabling him to exert even greater force!

A single sword aura or a chimpanzee can be ignored, but as time goes by, the sword auras increase in number, eventually forming a deathly domain that can shatter everything.

The deadly sword energy surrounding Ji Chen was something the chimpanzee could no longer ignore.

It was forced to growl and send out a giant paw to protect its face and other vital areas. Its tough fur sparked as it was cut by the sword energy.

The struggle for power continued, but it had to devote some of its attention to defending against the all-pervasive slashes, causing its offensive to falter.

Ji Chen seized the opportunity and used the Kunmen's ultimate technique, the Iron Mountain Strike, to push the chimpanzee back repeatedly.

Just as the chimpanzee was preparing to regroup and try again, Ji Chen raised his paw:

"stop!"

For this evolution, Ji Chen prepared hundreds of tons of meat here.

Ji Chen pointed to the meat warehouse and said:

"Old Black, I just evolved and have exhausted all the nutrients I had stored up. I haven't had time to replenish them yet. To be fair, is it alright for me to eat some meat?"

Upon hearing this, the chimpanzee, who had just regained its footing, initially didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It even said, "I'm a little hungry too, let's eat together."

But after taking only two steps, it realized something was wrong.

wrong!

This rhythm seems familiar, like it was before Yoda evolved.

It realized that Ji Chen wanted it to be his sparring partner, but was afraid that it wouldn't give it its all, so he was keeping it hanging on by its own.

It swallowed two pieces of mutated beast meat with a thud, wanting to vent its anger on Ji Chen and tell him that it was not easy to handle, but it was also afraid that Ji Chen would seriously hurt it. So it could only groan and swallow a few more mouthfuls of meat as a way of venting its anger.

Since Ji Chen's agreement only lasted until today, it didn't believe that Ji Chen's progress could catch up with its own in just one day.

Half an hour later, having eaten and drunk their fill, the two beasts rose again, ready to wrestle.

After standing still, the chimpanzee suddenly realized that something was wrong.

How come that bastard Yoda seems to have gotten a bit stronger? And the size of his forelimbs is almost as big as mine, isn't it?

The chimpanzee wasn't mistaken; Ji Chen had indeed become much stronger.

After evolving without any nutritional replenishment, he had been in a emaciated state. Now that he had eaten meat, his entire body became fuller and more robust, exuding a sense of power.

Without saying a word, the two beasts rammed into each other.

In an instant, sand and stones flew, the ground cracked, and dust waves rose up, sweeping across all directions.

The loud "thump-thump" sound was no longer a simple collision sound, but a continuous rumbling that shook the entire area.

If Ji Chen hadn't already sealed this place off, the commotion here would probably have caused panic throughout the city.

This time, Ji Chen was still at a disadvantage, but compared to before, he was able to go back and forth, and even briefly took the initiative more than once by relying on the sword energy field brought by the sword dance.

boom--

In a brilliant close-quarters struggle, Ji Chenlong suddenly raised his head high, and with all his strength, like a warhammer, he slammed into the chimpanzee's wide-open chest.

This strike, combining the sharpness of the sword and the power of the entire body, actually sent the much larger chimpanzee flying backwards with its feet off the ground in a sorry state!

Before the chimpanzee could run over in a frenzy, Ji Chen called for a halt again.

Even if neither beast used any other offensive means (excluding the passive skill of Sword Dance), and it was just a contest of strength, Ji Chen almost exhausted his stamina within half an hour.

After all, it is a fourth-tier beast king. The chimpanzee has many methods such as counterattack, damage reduction, and strength enhancement, making it a very reliable punching bag.

Having just suffered a humiliating defeat and was about to seek revenge, the chimpanzee was abruptly stopped. It felt as if a mouthful of blood was stuck in its chest, threatening to suffocate it.

Can......

It could only pant heavily and reluctantly accept this halftime break.
