Chapter 228 Grandfather the Clan Chief
On the other hand, the battle itself was different from what they had imagined.

Datmenli did not display overwhelming strength.

On the contrary, judging from the battle situation, Poole is the one who has the advantage.

The surrounding stones floated up, making the whole area seem like a weightless starry sky environment.

Poole was standing on a rock at that moment.

Despite its height of three or four meters, it seemed weightless at this moment, with the dorsal fin on its back emitting a unique force field.

Holding a stone in his hand, he squeezed it hard, and the stone shattered, sending a large number of fragments flying out.

“Whale transformation…is this the method Nell was hiding?” Datmenli swung his sword continuously, the immense power slicing and splitting pieces of stone the size of a finger.

These small stones may look tiny, but their speed and weight are astonishing.

This is the power gained after whale transformation reaches an extremely high level and its characteristics are further developed.

In the early stages of whale transformation, after Poole developed bone fins, he could only adjust his body weight up or down by about 10%. Although it was useful, it only made him more agile and occasionally allowed him to punch harder.

However, in the later stages, the bone fins changed step by step, especially after Nemus obtained a large number of whale products, the whale blood diamond greatly improved the stage of Pull's whale transformation.

He went from adjusting the weight by 10% to adjusting it by 100%.

In other words, if Poole wanted to, he could completely transform himself into a weightless being.

Subsequently, Poole naturally reached the Iron-type, and his bone fin ability further evolved, transforming from simply adjusting his own weight into a field. Within a certain range around him, the weight of all life and spiritual matter that was not of sufficient quality would be under his control.

In addition, after Poole was promoted to the Steel type, another characteristic also changed.

Colossus → Giant life form!

Poole's original value was only 27 or 28, but with the support of the giant life form, the effect of that 28 value was close to 60. At the same time, values ​​such as defense, vitality, and physical resilience would far exceed those of a normal human life form.

A force of sixty, applied to a small, weightless stone, is enough to send it flying faster than the human eye can perceive, and just before it hits, the stone suddenly gains weight.

A stone the size of a finger can deliver a tremendous impact, much like a catapult.

Furthermore, because the weight is concentrated within the small stone, this weight is transformed into terrifying penetrating power.

Even a high-stat steel species like Dartmanli would have difficulty sensing the approaching stone; they could only barely grasp a hint of danger before taking defensive action.

If he is not careful and misses a stone, the divine protection brought by the Holy Path Sword on his body will be broken.

It can be said that the opponent's stats are not high, but the combination of several characteristics increases its combat ability several times over.

The whale-like demon that Nemus encountered in the abyss was just like that.

The steel species' extreme value of over ninety was surprisingly troublesome for Nemus, a demon species with a value of three hundred.

And that is the power of top-tier characteristics.

Good properties can make the value produce an effect several times greater.

However, it is extremely difficult to obtain top-tier traits in the early stages of cultivation.

This is precisely the power of whale transformation, which has been developed—two top-tier characteristics.

Dartmenley, however, is different.

His bones glowed slightly, and then the properties of the holy blood from the Dartmenti family were activated.

The Path of the Saints.

Based on his stats, this characteristic no longer needs to be activated in any other way; it has become a permanent feature that can be activated with just a thought.

However, the path to sainthood also has its problems, namely the burden on the body. In the previous battle between Nemus and Dartmenley, Nemus used the secret sword, Hummingbird, to overcome this characteristic.

This is a case where the skill has been used to its fullest potential.

However, Poole is not Nems; his combat skills are not as strong.

As for the intensity of the Path of the Saint, as long as one can withstand it, it is also the most outstanding characteristic!
Once the special ability is activated, the battle truly enters a heated phase.

Dartmenley completely abandoned all defenses, pointed his sword at Poole, and then launched an attack.

Poole tossed the remaining pebbles away casually, but they were deflected as they approached Dartmenley.

"As expected, the feature has been activated." Nemus's comments on the Path of the Saint feature came to Pull's mind.

The Path of the Saint guarantees that the user will be able to advance and launch attacks.

During this process, no external force can interfere with the opponent's progress.

This 'absolute' quality, if used well, can ignore the vast majority of attacks.

As for the attack and the aftermath, as well as dealing with the backlash and damage to the body caused by the attack.

Although they are all flaws, only a few people are able to exploit them.

It's like an eye that claims to have a 359-degree field of view, but has a fatal flaw because it lacks one degree of field of view.

For normal human eyes, which only have a field of view of about 100 degrees, wouldn't this flaw be even bigger?

As a result, some people believe that the perspective from that angle was actually more fatal.

This is clearly a cognitive fallacy that more is less.

The same applies to the Path of the Saint. It ensures protection for most of the battle time during the offensive phase, and is only unprotected during the attack and confrontation phases, or after the attack.

Other ordinary people have no protection at all times.

“Therefore, if you lack the ability to seize opportunities, the best way to fight Dartmenley is to stall!” Nems’s advice became Poole’s fighting philosophy at this moment.

His body quickly transformed into a black shadow and vanished from Dartmenley's sight.

Without any weight, he was already able to fly.

However, flight can only be achieved by utilizing the anti-gravity force created by manipulating weight.

On the ground, one can use all their strength to propel themselves forward.

Datmenley lost sight of his target in an instant.

Although the path to sainthood is powerful, it is not yet powerful enough to overcome distance as an obstacle.

At least Dartmenley can't do that right now.

Then, Dartmanley turned his gaze to the other side, to Cecilia within the magic circle.

Since Nemus had nurtured the other party to this extent, he naturally had a need for them.

So……

Datmenley raised his sword, his movements equally swift, and charged toward Cecilia.

"Grandpa Chief!" Cecilia murmured, whether in her sleep or for some other reason, even though she was unconscious within the magic circle.

This caused a subtle change in Dartmanley's expression, but he did not stop walking or wielding his sword.
