Chapter 765 - Chapter 765 Adaptation

Palm's Merman Clairvoyance could instantly reflect the surrounding area of her surveillance target.

It was a very rare functionality Conjuration-Type Ability.

To the extent that Knov regarded Palm's ability as a trump card, and would never show it in front of others unless it was necessary, nor would he let Palm use this ability easily.

It is worth mentioning that Palm is not a Conjurer, but an Enhancer.

The reason why she was able to create the Merman Clairvoyance, an ability centered around surveillance and voyeurism, with a 60% Conjuration affinity can be regarded as a true manifestation of her life experiences and personality.

Or in other words-

It was an embodiment of a certain twisted personality.

The system of Nen Abilities is sometimes influenced by the personality or experience of the user, and can transcend the inherent limitations of Nen Categories under certain circumstances.

In this battle, the one Palm cared most about was Knov.

So after returning to the Fourth-Dimensional Apartment, all Palm wanted was to use her Merman Clairvoyance to constantly confirm Knov's safety.

It was only under Netero's strong request that Palm ultimately had to set her surveillance target to Moses

Since the image projected by the crystal ball is not large, it is difficult to see the entire battle from a bird's eye view.

Despite this, that didn't stop Palm from feeling shocked after seeing Moses suppress the King.

The details she could see were very limited, and she could only judge from the results that Moses had the upper hand.

With that as a premise, and using Netero's defeat as a benchmark for the King's strength...

She came to an intuitive conclusion.

'The human who is fighting the Chimera Ant King...'

'Is also a very powerful monster.'

And compared to Palm, who could only judge based on the 'results', Netero saw more things hidden beneath the surface in that narrow crystal ball.

He was pleased that Moses could reach a level similar to his 100-Type Guanyin at such a young age, and he was also amazed that Moses could demonstrate such cunning tactical maturity at such a young age.

However, when he saw Moses exerting 100% Enhancement attributes, his state of mind, which had been tempered by time, could not help but shook.

'It's not just the Enhancement system...'

A glint of surprise flickered through Netero's deeply sunken eye sockets.

He weakly raised his eyelids, recalling the scenes that had just flashed across the crystal ball.

'Transmutation, Conjuration, Emission...'

'Those too had probably reached 100%, which explained why that black sword maintained such formidable strength even after being extended.'

'You little bastard… how did you do it…'

Netero stared at the image in the crystal ball, and while muttering in his heart, he had already anticipated a certain possibility.

It is not impossible to bring multiple Nen Categories to 100%.

However…

Only a handful of Nen Users had ever achieved such a feat, and in most cases, they have to pay an unimaginable price.

Netero had no idea how Moses did it, but he could conclude that Moses must be bearing some huge price that he was not aware of.

Within the battle zone…

Moses took back the last unit of shadow clone, which also meant that his Manifested Aura had reached 100% at this moment.

Facing a monster like the Chimera Ant King, who possesses an extremely strong Manifested Aura, it is not suitable to implement the shadow clone tactic.

Such an approach would invisibly lengthen the offensive and defensive distance between Moses and the King.

Although Emperor Time is a life-draining ability, it can give Moses an increase in his Manifested Aura and a 100% conversion rate for all categories.

This tangible amplification gave him the potential to pierce through the King's defenses, and even land a fatal blow.

In comparison, the cost of draining his life force… was nothing.

'There is no room to 'pause'. I must kill him before I run out of options!'

A stern killing intent emerged in the Scarlet Eyes surrounded by black arcs. Moses raised his right hand and mobilized his Aura to conjure a black sword.

Right in front of him, the King, whose body was covered with numerous wounds, was finally experiencing the full weight of Moses's complete state.

'In terms of the amount of life force alone-'

'It had increased by a full third since earlier.'

The King slightly reined in his excitement, and facing Moses's killing intent that had been strengthened by All Extinct, He calmly flicked off the blood clinging to his fingers.

Skill, technique, tactics...

He fell short of the human.

The newly born King realized this deeply today.

But he was not discouraged at all.

He believed that one day, he would be able to reach or even surpass this level.

Until that time came, he is willing to believe that absolute power is the strongest force in the world.

The King's soaring fighting spirit hadn't diminished due to repeated setbacks, and it simply began to internalize and refine itself with his shifting understanding.

'I'll prove it with my actions...'

The King lowered his eyes and a waterfall-like stream of Aura surged from his body.

The maximum amount of his Manifested Aura was surging on his perfect body, which had formed from countless elite genes. The surrounding fine sand and gravel were affected by the Aura, gradually being sucked over, and then circling around and flying upwards.

In the next moment,

The King's Aura, which had been surging wildly during the battle, gradually calmed down.

In just a moment, it was as if the state changed from raging waves to calm water, causing the Aura to firmly cover the surface of the body.

This change comes from the application of Nen Technique... Ken.

After suffering a series of defeats, the King took the initiative to make changes.

When fighting with Netero before, the King felt the lethality of 100-Type Guanyin with his body.

Then, he determined that the difference in Manifested Aura and physical strength alone would make the attack of 100-Type Guanyin useless.

Therefore, there is no need to spend time on refining his Manifested Aura.

Not because he disdained technique, but because he saw no need to do so.

But now, things were different.

The human before him was younger, stronger, and posed an even greater threat to his defenses.

So the King mimicked what he saw and compressed the always-flaring Aura so that it could stick more firmly to the surface of his body.

In this way, this refined state can be used to further enhance the offensive and defensive strength of his Manifested Aura.

The King's learning ability was beyond doubt.

With a mere thought, he could now perform Ken at a respectable level.

Seeing the King adapt his Nen Technique in real time, Moses wasn't surprised in the slightest.

This monster, which was crafted from the best genetic material in the world, lacked nothing in learning speed or intelligence.

Adapting and evolving in response to combat disadvantage was only natural.
