Chapter 711: When It Comes to Defense, I

As the entire hall turned into a world of black.

Luo Chenyu completely lost his vision.

But…

Luo Chenyu was astonished to discover a strange force surging from deep within his soul.

That was… soul force!

Soul force refers to the core power condensed from the soul's primordial heart.

It is also the core of spiritual perception.

"What… is going on?"

For a moment.

Luo Chenyu felt strangely alienated from his own body—or rather, his soul.

In fact…

This sense of alienation had accompanied him since the beginning, growing stronger as his power increased and his contact with the soul deepened.

The sense of alienation grew stronger with it.

Whether the strange mutation abilities or the soul-derived mutation skills, all were existences he could not understand.

The soul—the origin of man.

At this moment, Luo Chenyu had no ability to control or analyze the soul.

Perhaps…

This was still a matter of power.

"It's time to study soul-related knowledge—I can't remain this clueless forever; one day it'll cost me dearly!"

This thought flashed through Luo Chenyu's mind.

But now, there was no time to think deeply.

As the strange soul force surged forth, Luo Chenyu discovered that this sliver of soul force began drifting within his mind sea.

Boom!!

The stable mind sea suddenly began vibrating with rhythmic pulses.

Accompanying the vibrations,

Luo Chenyu was astonished to find… spiritual perception was showing signs of revival.

At least…

He could now sense a range of one or two meters around him.

And…

That range was continuously expanding.

Strange!!

But if it benefited him, that was all that mattered!

"Come on!"

Facing endless darkness, Luo Chenyu sneered, focusing entirely on every change around him.

A one-meter range…

With focus, his body's reaction speed should keep up.

Yet…

Seconds ticked by.

But no attack came from 【Shadow Realm Lord·Peldun】, leaving Luo Chenyu slightly surprised.

"What is that bastard preparing?"

As time passed,

The duration of 【Indestructible Shield】 was nearing its end.

Perhaps this was one reason.

Another reason was that 【Shadow Realm Lord·Peldun】 was preparing a massive technique—a one-hit kill.

"I don't believe that bastard can one-shot me through 【Steel Shield】!"

Luo Chenyu was confident.

This confidence stemmed from 【Steel Shield】's supreme defense and the various mutation skills enhancing his defense.

As for output, he might not be the absolute top…

But when it comes to taking hits,

Even in 【Eternal Arena】, Luo Chenyu now had the confidence to make many strong opponents feel hopeless.

Finally…

Five seconds later, the shield of 【Indestructible Shield】 finally vanished.

At that moment,

Luo Chenyu's expression hardened—his spiritual perception sensed a strange sense of danger.

The danger was everywhere.

Area attack?

Luo Chenyu didn't know, but he knew he had to act now.

Otherwise, 【Steel Shield】's durability would be drastically reduced.

"Don't think I only have this one defense ability!"

Luo Chenyu chuckled, then decisively activated 【Protection of the Life Goddess】—an invincible shield appeared.

Just as expected.

When the invincibility shield appeared, countless dark arrows shot out from the darkness.

Every dark arrow carried a corrosive ability.

If his guess was right, this was a corrosive ability specifically targeting shields.

After all, the feeling coming from the invincibility shield of 【Life Goddess's Sanctuary】 couldn't be wrong!

"This guy's methods are quite impressive!"

Luo Chenyu expressed his appreciation for this.

But…

However, it was utterly useless.

【Life Goddess's Sanctuary】 — that guy still couldn't break through it.

When it came to defensive ability, he was serious!
