MTLNOVEL Chapter 578: 432_1
Hum!
In the gray, foggy space, the mist gathered and dissipated as Wu Feng's figure appeared again from afar.
At this moment, his pupils were dilated, showing his shock.
"You've actually mastered the technique of spiritual contest so quickly?" Wu Feng exclaimed in shock.
The spiritual contest here was completely different from the psychic attack Gu Chen used previously in battle.
Because this is the world of psychic essence, both of their bodies were condensed from psychic essence, or rather, it could be understood that they were battling with their psychic entities, which was naturally different from fighting with psychic essence in the outside world.
This was where Wu Feng's confidence lay; he believed that with his experience and the home-field advantage, he could surely take down Gu Chen.
But what Wu Feng never expected was that Gu Chen had so quickly mastered the corresponding method, enough to contend with him.
At this moment, Gu Chen's body was aglow, with eight heavenly dragons levitating behind him as he shone brightly like a fierce sun. His gaze was indifferent as he looked down at Wu Feng and said, "What's so hard about that? Isn't it just about using spiritual martial arts?"
"You are indeed a genius!" Wu Feng frowned.
Until the very last moment just now, when Gu Chen had an idea and recalled that he possessed the Refining Spirit Secret and Extreme God Nerve, which were spiritual martial arts, he put them to use immediately. This usage allowed him to discover something different.
Here in the world of psychic essence, no other martial arts could be used from the outside world. Only spiritual martial arts could be utilized, and once Gu Chen operated the Refining Spirit Secret and Extreme God Nerve, he indeed noticed something different.
At this moment, the halo around his body was formed by the Refining Spirit Secret, which could be used for protection.
The golden flames and the eight heavenly dragons behind him were all condensed using the Extreme God Nerve.

Using the method of spiritual martial arts here was different from that in the outside world.
Normally, one would feel discomfort when engaging in combat with a body condensed from psychic essence for the first time. Even if one mastered spiritual martial arts, they wouldn't be easy to use and would require time to get used to.
Moreover, Wu Feng attacked swiftly, clearly not wanting to give Gu Chen any chance, but Gu Chen succeeded at the last moment.
That's why Wu Feng couldn't help but speak in admiration.
"Now that I have mastered the methods of spiritual contest, this battle can come to an end," said Gu Chen.
Upon hearing this, Wu Feng let out a cold laugh and said, "Don't forget, this is my home field. What do you have to fight me with?!"
Hum!
Suddenly, within this space, all the gray fog concentrated, turning into eight python-like ferocious beasts, corresponding to the eight heavenly dragons behind Gu Chen, staring each other down.
"Come on!"
Wu Feng roared like a madman, his body overflowing with black energy. The eight pythons behind him surged out towards Gu Chen.
Seeing this, Gu Chen remained calm. With a thought, the eight heavenly dragons behind him did the same, clashing with the eight pythons Wu Feng had conjured in mid-air.
"Kill!"
At that moment, Wu Feng instantly reached Gu Chen to engage in a decisive battle.
"In life, I was a Coagulation Field realm martial arts master. Even now, as nothing but a soul remnant, I am not something a junior like you can contend with!" Wu Feng shouted fiercely.
To this, Gu Chen had no words. His response was a punch glowing with golden flames, unstoppable and radiant!
Thud!
At the first collision, their fists and palms met, causing the gray space to tremble instantly.
"Die!"
In an instant, more than a dozen black spears burst out from behind Wu Feng, stabbing towards Gu Chen's body.
But Gu Chen was already prepared. Using the Extreme God Nerve, he simulated the Tri-Yang Burning Heaven Skill, and suddenly, golden flames soared to the sky, burning Wu Feng's attack to ashes.
Only in a spiritual contest was it possible to simulate one's external martial arts with spiritual martial arts. This revealed the mysterious nature of psychic space, where only spiritual martial arts could achieve such an effect.
However, such close-range psychic clashes were extremely perilous, fraught with the danger of death. Moreover, every injury sustained could harm the martial artist's psychic essence. Should the damage become too severe, even if Gu Chen ultimately defeated Wu Feng, it would be a pyrrhic victory with profound implications, possibly affecting the very foundation of his martial path.
More gravely, one could end up mentally crippled or become a fool.
Of course, the same applied to Wu Feng. One misstep could mean a total loss.
Nevertheless, both fighters had no way out at this point; only a life-and-death battle could settle the result!
"Kill!"
At this moment, even Gu Chen burst out in fervor. His black hair whipped chaotically and a tinge of madness lingered in his eyes. With a light cry, using the Extreme God Nerve to simulate the Three Suns Scorches the Heavens Skill, he condensed a fierce sun and hurled it at Wu Feng.
"Roar!"
Wu Feng roared angrily, also becoming frenzied. Whether he could see the light of day again and be resurrected hinged on this battle!
Both men attacked relentlessly, each trying to subdue the other in combat. Without any defense, the space boiled over as Wu Feng mobilized all his strength, the gray fog condensing and repeatedly striking at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen refined the Eight Heavenly Dragons skill and the innate Pure Yang Sword Aura with the Extreme God Nerve. He also used the Refining Spirit Secret to create a halo of holy light as a shield to protect himself.
But even so, he was still injured, coughing up blood continuously. It must be known that the blood he shed was not ordinary but was the essence of Gu Chen's psychic spirit!
