Am I a god-tier talent in all my professions?

Chapter 118 The Invincible God of War

Go through this door.

What came into view was pitch blackness, but soon the darkness gradually dissipated.

The light comes on.

What I saw was the fading red of the setting sun.

And, an endless expanse of bones.

Atop the mountain of corpses stood a man with a rugged face, extremely sharp eyes, and messy, shoulder-length hair.

He held a huge battle axe in one hand, his upper body was bare, and he wore shorts sewn from monster hide.

His muscles are perfectly defined, with not a single muscular bulge.

"God of War - Kaiga"

The moment I met his gaze, I felt a sense of certain defeat rising in my heart!

But then, a fighting spirit surged within him.

This feeling of defeat was instantly shattered and vanished.

No words are needed.

With just a glance, they understood the content of this trial.

You crave a war, don't you?

Kaiga.

Are you yearning for defeat?

Lu Cang let out a long breath, his eyes suddenly becoming sharp and serious.

If faced with a life-threatening crisis, one's first reaction would be to ensure safety.

But if...

A war that was inevitable.

Then, let's give it our all.

Lu Cang's protective shield rose layer by layer, completely enveloping him.

After comprehending "The Secret History of Battle", Lu Cang has gained a deeper understanding of the God of War than before.

The enemy we face now is no longer unknown.

However, its strength is undeniable.

With his current level of spiritual awareness, Lu Cang could sense that the other party possessed the aura of a level 3 warrior.

Does the God of War disdain winning through superior level?

If victory is to be achieved through superiority, it would be more effective to suppress through divine power.

Lu Cang sneered and said, "Are you trying to prove that you've been invincible since ancient times?"

This was said along with the sentence.

Lu Cang's aura was also rising.

Lu Cang originally didn't want to waste words in the battle, but the opponent's aura was too strong... making him feel very uncomfortable.

He opened his mouth and exhaled, feeling much better.

The God of War remained silent, simply standing atop the mountain of corpses, looking down at Lu Cang, and beckoning to him.

Tsk.

An arrogant fellow.

Very well, if I defeat you, it should prove that I am the strongest.

They were just worried about not having a benchmark to prove whether they were truly invincible among their peers.

Lu Cang looked around.

This battlefield is the final scene I saw in "The Secret History of Battle," a battlefield of mountains of corpses and seas of blood... and it just so happens to be my home ground.

Cracks appeared one after another.

"Awaken the Void" - Void creatures descend!
A Tier 4 Nation-Destroying Summoning Creature surrounds the God of War from different angles.

Lu Cang made a move!

"Source: Instant White Flash"

call out--

A flash of light! But this time, the "instant white flash," which had never been dodged before, was actually dodged!

Swish!
The God of War appeared beside him almost instantly!
Without using an axe, he simply raised his leg and delivered a side kick!
Lu Cang knew about this move.

"Sun-Shattering Style - Third Form: Sun-Shattering Horizontal Kick"

Back then, in the Battle History, I resonated with the God of War and became familiar with most of his moves!
"Come!"

"Source: True Obstacles to Protection"

A four-layered source shield is formed! Add to that the fifty-six layers of shields surrounding the body!

Lu Cang wanted to see.

It's also level 3.

How powerful is the God of War's kick?

Can I break through my own sixty-layered shield?
boom!
But then this leg swept past!
The four layers of protective barriers shattered almost instantly upon contact!
Immediately following, this kick swept in with overwhelming force, shattering the layers of shields without any hindrance, just like an iron hammer smashing a paper window!
boom!
The last layer of shield was shattered as easily as paper!

joke?

Is it really that powerful?

boom!
Blood splattered everywhere, and a blood mist exploded!

The corpse exploded, and at the same time, the "Deep Ice Flower" also burst open in an instant!

Lu Cang appeared in the distance, all the shields on his body completely restored.

However, these shields did not give Lu Cang any sense of security whatsoever.

"Death Swap Technique"

Thankfully, the ground was littered with corpses... otherwise I would have had to secretly bury a few bodies before the battle even began.

……

The thick fog has dissipated.

Although he knew that his opponent possessed ultimate combat skills, this mist was basically ineffective against him.

But Lu Cang still spread the thick fog.

Dense fog not only obscures vision, but also acts as a good conductor of water, aiding in the casting of ice spells.

Swish!
Without any warning, he suddenly attacked at close range!
"Blast Explosion (Tier 3)", "Water Ring of Blockage (Tier 3)", "Wall Push (Tier 3)"...

Thirty-six repulsion spells erupted instantly!

I want to push the other person away!
However, despite the thirty-six spells striking him, his body remained completely still, as solid as a rock.

weakness?

Lu Cang examined the other person's body thoroughly but found absolutely no weakness!
The enemy's attack has already arrived!
boom!
Having consumed another corpse, Lu Cang reappeared in the distance, while the remaining corpses nearby were stored in his storage space.

In the instant of the exchange, Lu Cang's hundreds of magic spells, along with their vibrant colors, swept out towards the opponent!

But then he saw an extremely fast figure approaching him.

At the same time, it shatters all magic blocking its path without being affected in the process of approaching!

I can see the other person's speed clearly, but the other person is too fast.

The vision is clear, but the magic can't keep up.

Only the speed of casting the spell can keep up with the reaction.

boom!
The two clashed again, shattering the barrier and shield once more, and Lu Cang replaced the corpse once more! But this time, almost as soon as the replacement was completed, the God of War had already attacked!
The speed at which he killed was exactly the same as the speed at which he replaced the corpses!
This is the invincible warrior!
You really underestimated him.

However... I'm not just a punching bag for you to beat up.

boom!
The body exploded again!

"Source: Dark Void (Tier 4) (LV: 301)"

Swish!
Almost the instant the corpse was destroyed, the God of War was imprisoned inside a square, colorful black cube.

"Dark Void - Deprivation of the five senses, imprisonment, cage, and blocking of perception"

This is the "Dark Vision" Tier 3 spell I bought from the magic shop.

If you have keen senses, then I will deprive you of them.

then……

"Source: Implosion - Sacrifice: 50 Souls"

The dark void that trapped the God of War within instantly transformed!
It transformed into an "impact" that completely enveloped him.

Let me see if you are really that indestructible.

boom!
The implosion has exploded!

The whole process was completed in one go.

Just as the God of War chased after him and kicked Lu Cang into a substitute corpse, he was already trapped in the Dark Void Zone, and then the Dark Void Zone exploded!

As for when the implosion occurred?

The process involved is essentially nonexistent.

You're fast.

I wasn't slow either. As my soul ascended, a figure appeared before me!

Oh shit……

Having survived a blast that claimed 50 souls, how come they're still attacking as if nothing happened?
Swish!
The buzzing hunter was also chasing after itself.

However, the two were fighting too fast, and these summoned creatures capable of destroying entire nations had no chance to intervene!

Fortunately, the ground here is littered with corpses.

The "Death Exchange" spell, which has now reached the second tier, is no longer limited to using only the corpses it has placed; all the corpses on the entire battlefield can be used by the user!
This "death swap" spell is indeed very useful.

The most difficult condition for casting this spell is that it requires consuming a soul with at least the same spirituality as oneself.

Such a soul is not easy to obtain.

If Lu Cang hadn't possessed the talent of a sublime soul, he wouldn't have been able to use this spell even once.

Where can I kill someone with a higher spirituality than myself?

Even if you wanted to kill someone, you couldn't find a target.

Lu Cang skillfully maneuvered, repeatedly switching between corpses to evade attacks, while also constantly hiding clever tricks within the corpses.

The primary method is erosion and weakening, supplemented by implosion bombardment.

However, the explosion of 50 souls failed to cause him any noticeable damage.

If he hadn't awakened his ultimate intent, Lu Cang wouldn't have even been able to sense the changes that had occurred in him.

He was indeed injured.

But this injury is no different from a scrape.

With the destructive power of Implosion and 50 souls, if it hits a vital point, it can instantly kill a Tier 5 Monarch-level monster without any problem.

No... even if it doesn't hit a vital spot, it can still kill directly.

Is it because physical attacks are not very effective?

"Soul-Tearing and Spirit-Stealing (Tier 4)"

Lu Cang tried to pull out his soul and cause soul damage, but the other party's soul was almost completely integrated with his body.

It remained completely still.

Lu Cang moved near the four Buzzing Hunters, and the four Buzzing Hunters simultaneously surrounded and killed the War God in front of him!

But then his battle axe swept across!

boom!
Before they even got close, these buzzing hunters were reduced to dust and scattered!

tsk...

I'm strong, that's one thing. I have high spirituality, I get god-level talents at every level, I have good fortune, I work hard, and I have the Iz Cult, so it's perfectly reasonable for me to be strong.

What makes you so strong?

Lu Cang was puzzled.

There are far too many strange and powerful individuals in this world.

No.

Don't deny it... Since it has already happened, there must be a reason.

Since the other party is powerful, there must be a reason for their strength.

Go and observe.

Bang—bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Countless corpses exploded in a bloody mist. In the blink of an eye, Lu Cang and the God of War clashed dozens of times, chasing and exchanging positions.

Lu Cang couldn't do anything to him for the time being, but the God of War also couldn't kill Lu Cang.

Lu Cang found the God of War disgusting, but the other party also felt that Lu Cang's...slippery manner was a bit strange.

boom!
The God of War kneeled down towards Lu Cang!
Almost simultaneously, a hundred different spells converged along the path of its attack.

boom!
Magic clashes with combat skills!
This time, the shield was not broken, and Lu Cang did not replace the corpse!
My magic is no less powerful than his combat skills.

Lu Cang was certain of this.

However, his magic had been too scattered before, so using only a shield was indeed not enough to withstand his attack.

But what if other offensive magic is also incorporated?

That way, you can withstand one of his attacks.

It sounds absurd; hundreds of spells stacked together barely managed to block a single attack.

But actually... this is already a pretty impressive feat.

Only by experiencing it firsthand can one truly understand how unstoppable this strike from the God of War is.

That is to say...

My spells are not concentrated enough; they are too scattered.

If I could use magic in the form of combat techniques...

Combat skills are the ultimate expression of technique.

By using skillful techniques, one can unleash all the body's energy, blood, and strength, even fighting spirit, to generate extraordinary destructive power.

The same side kick, delivered with combat skill versus a mere showy kick, can have a difference in lethality of a hundredfold or even a thousandfold.

Lu Cang was deep in thought.

But the person before them spoke:

"The essence of a warrior!!! It's pushing the limits of your body!!!"

"Unleash every single attack with full force!!!"

Before Lu Cang could react, his knee strike was blocked, and his opponent immediately extended his leg and kicked upwards!

boom!
The corpse exploded, and Lu Cang reappeared in the distance.

boom!
The colorful magic blocked the opponent's straight punch, but then, the battle axe came flying in!

"You have absolutely no skill whatsoever!!!"

boom!
The corpse exploded again! A dark void was created, but a single swing of the axe shattered the dark cage.

But this time, he did not continue the pursuit.

Instead, he pointed his battle axe at Lu Cang.

"You think you can defeat me with your weak, feeble attacks?!"

"Before you defeat me!!! I'll chop all these corpses to pieces! And then! I'll chop you up!!"

Lu Cang let out a long breath.

Her eyes were cold, and she ignored his provocation.

With ranged attacks, he could dodge almost all of his own magic.

A direct "Implosion—sacrifice 3 million souls?"

It is indeed a method of overwhelming others with force, a seemingly simple yet profound approach.

If sacrificing 3 million souls couldn't kill him, Lu Cang didn't think he had any other means to harm him.

but……

That was the last trump card.

Fighting him brought me a lot of reflection, or rather... pleasure.

What makes him so powerful?
Is my skill as a magician really that weak?
Could it be that I really can't defeat him with magic alone?
Did I miss out on some special way to improve my abilities? A way that I should have experienced but didn't?

I am absolutely no less talented than anyone else.

They are probably just as spiritually gifted as the others.

So where exactly am I at a disadvantage?

If Izparut were to become his enemy, what would he do? Would he lose?

No, it's hard to imagine that guy losing so easily.

He will surely be able to come up with a way to win using his intelligence.

So, am I weaker than him?

boom!
In an instant, the two clashed again! This time, Lu Cang used magic to block both of the God of War's attacks in succession!
It was hit on the third attack.

……

It's blocked twice now.

Unleash spells like Ice Bee, Ground Spike, Fire Blast, and Thunderclap at the moment of engagement to block him.

If it were Izzy, how would she deal with such an enemy?
With Izzy's magical skills, could she defeat this god of war head-on?
Lu Cang maintained his own combat thinking while also fantasizing about putting himself in Iz's shoes.

Kaiga is a tough opponent.

But Lu Cang felt an unusual excitement, that he could defeat him, and that he could defeat him through his own thinking.

It might require the use of a small number of souls, but definitely not too many.

"Yeah."

Swish!
Lu Cang swapped places with the corpse and appeared behind the God of War.

This time, it wasn't Lu Cang who was attacked, but Lu Cang who took the initiative to launch an offensive.

Since you're always getting close to me, it doesn't really matter whether it's close combat or not.
