Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 625 - 43: The Unreasonable Tang Very Meaty_2
But this battle was still a tug-of-war, and the situation didn't topple as swiftly in Tang Xian's favor as he had expected.
Because the opponent was just too resilient.
Just twenty seconds ago, the achievements for Unparalleled and Arch Enemy had already prompted in his sea of consciousness.
At this moment, Tang Xian had finally become completely immune to the monster's attacks.
And his attacks could now cause soul damage that ignored any defense.
The soul-rending agony made the hybrid suddenly more lucid. In its eyes, looking at Tang Xian, there was a new-found wariness.
But its logic was simple, even though it was me who struck first, now that we are fighting, we must fight until a victor is determined.
This was the part that Tang Xian found most incomprehensible.
Previously encountered creatures, no matter how astounding their healing abilities, under the explosive speed of the Serpent Stance, would be swiftly defeated after a few punches.
But not this monster.
Tang Xian's punches connected flesh to flesh, each one dealing immense damage to the hybrid, all occurring in the blink of an eye.
The hybrid's body suffered destructive blows in a mere second, but what was more horrifying was that — in an even shorter time, its body would recover to its peak condition in an instant.
Terrible attacks tormented the hybrid greatly, but pain also fueled its intense rage.
Worse than the pain from Tang Xian's fists was the inhuman torture it had suffered through the years as a test subject.
Without a name, without a tribe, without belonging, without any reason to live.
The hybrid let out a painful and lonely howl, tinged with a touch of plaintiveness and anger, and as a result, its attacks became even more reckless.
So-called recklessness is merely the rational conviction that the opponent can't kill you.
It no longer knew if there was anything in this world that could kill it.
Tang Xian was shocked.
"What kind of monster are you?"
This was the first time he had seen a creature whose healing rate was so fast that even the damage brought about by his Eden bloodline could not suppress it.
The fight between the two had turned into a stalemate.
Tang was reckless, but the hybrid was even more so. It didn't care that its punches could no longer harm Tang Xian; it just kept throwing punches, venting the rage it had accumulated over the years.
[Die! Die! Die!]
Tang Xian didn't feel anything from the hybrid's attacks, but what troubled him was that his own attacks couldn't do anything to the hybrid either.
He finally realized that this monster's healing ability was probably unparalleled in the mine.
Just like Lei Xiao's speed was undeniably the fastest in the mine, this monster's vitality was also unquestionably unparalleled.
Tang Xian tried tearing the opponent apart, but just as the wounds started to form, a powerful healing force would close them up again, leaving Tang Xian with no means to cope with the hybrid.
Unless he could be faster and manage to inflict damage on the hybrid with even more ferocious attack speed.
But his speed had already begun to slow down. Life force might be infinite, but stamina was not.
Continuous activation of the Serpent Stance made Tang Xian feel his strength waning.
Finally, the two combatants separated after a kick from Tang Xian.
Both men were gasping heavily.
Tang Xian wiped the sweat from his forehead, recalling some old gaming memes.
Two tanks bashing each other, both with defense skills activated, constantly taunting and reducing damage, ultimately ending in a draw.
He had not expected to encounter such a situation with his Unparalleled status; he was not merely a tank, as his attack power was also extremely twisted, yet he still couldn't take down the monster before him.
Watching Tang Xian's rapid breathing, the hybrid's brain also began to clear up.
This person wasn't a Long-Eared Ancient Ape, nor was he the Judgment Chief. There were no creatures capable of humanization among the court's Judgment Chiefs.
Its eyes gradually lost their malice, but Tang Xian became even more wary.
The brute had started to use his brain, which meant a more fearsome attack was likely on the horizon.
After a brief rest, the hybrid launched an attack.
When Tang Xian saw the sight before him, he was stunned.
Because the hybrid's body had become extremely supple, its entire frame appeared thin, moving eerily with the surrounding airflow, presenting a unique sense of dissonance.
The next second, the hybrid's body completely twisted, lunging at Tang Xian like a net.
Mudmen!
Tang Xian instantly thought of the source of this dissonance.
What kind of monster is this?
The life recovery ability of a mud monster certainly isn't this freakish, and my sea of consciousness can't identify him.
"What the hell are you?"
Without any response, Tang Xian couldn't dodge in time, and the scene before him was like a bucket of black dirty water being splashed over.
In an instant, the hybrid's body, like a liquid, rapidly eroded Tang Xian's upper body.
Bai Mansheng wasn't sure whether she needed to intervene because the scene looked like Tang Xian had been clad in a layer of black shell.
Tang Xian reacted quickly, suddenly understanding the intent of this monster.
He had just observed his breathing and concluded that although he had a strong life force, his physical stamina couldn't keep up with the recovery.
The next second, Tang Xian felt all his airways being sealed off.
His eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were all drenched in the black liquid. In a moment, his upper body became a black statue.
The oxygen in his chest grew scarcer, and despite severe exhaustion, he couldn't restore his strength through breathing.
It felt as if he had sunk into the depths of the sea, a feeling he was all too familiar with. Before long, he'd be rendered unconscious from asphyxiation.

"I didn't expect it to be a tactician,"
Tang thought, quickly calming down inside.
With Bai Mansheng, who had the power of extreme cold, around, Tang wasn't too worried about the mud monster's liquid form.
But to simply ask Bai Mansheng for help, Tang felt somewhat unwilling.
This was the first time he encountered an existence resistant to both of his powers yet unable to deal with it.
Tang's hands continuously tore at it, but although the viscous liquid body was also damaged by his efforts, it recovered even faster.
He was out of options, his hands flailing aimlessly, his consciousness growing increasingly blurry.
Pat.
The frantically flailing Tang seemed to have touched something.
He could no longer hear clearly, and his lungs felt like they were about to explode with discomfort.
But just at that moment, the black mud that was blocking his breathing quickly receded.
Finally seeing the light again and feeling the oxygen, Tang began to breathe deeply.
At the same time, he witnessed a rather amusing sight.
"So that's how it is..."
Tang couldn't help but laugh and cry. It was the food at his waist that had saved his life at the crucial moment.
The food stored in the prop bag fell to the ground when Tang's hands waved in panic, and the aroma of the roasted meat caused the hybrid to quickly withdraw from Tang's upper body.
He was just so hungry.
He couldn't remember the last time he had eaten anything.
Upon smelling such a fragrant food, the hybrid no longer cared about the opponent in front of him, his hunger overpowering his desire to win.
He pounced on the prop bag like a starving dog, not bothering with any pretense, and started gnawing on it, almost as if he were eating the bag as well.
Tang sat to the side, quietly watching all of this, slowly regaining his strength and occasionally shaking his head.
Bai Mansheng pursed her lips and smiled. She remembered that before leaving, Tang had specifically brought some food.
It seems Tang's initial intention was to recruit, as he believed this place to be a prison, and those in prison were surely enemies of the court. Any creature imprisoned surely wouldn't have eaten well, or even enough.
So Tang had brought food, but he hadn't expected it to be presented in such an embarrassing way.
After a long silence, Tang looked at the prop bag now full of bite marks and wanted to remind this creature that it still contained his notes and such.
But the creature had entered a state of frenzied feeding, paying no heed to Tang.
Tang laughed, believing his "Iron Fist" was the ultimate truth of the world, but this time, he encountered an exception and said,
"Forget it, forget it, it's the first time I've met someone who couldn't be reasoned with. Eat slowly, I have a lot more of such food, lots and lots."
