Chapter 119: A Sudden Realization: The Opportunity to Break the Stalemate!
The oncoming giant hammer shattered into ice shards under Chen Yue's relentless blows.
Chen Yue's experience in dealing with desperate situations was clearly far more sophisticated than that of the fictional Chen Yue.
After all, they had just experienced something before entering the virtual world.
"What exactly is his weakness?"
"Formed from source energy, it doesn't even have a physical form, so what weaknesses could it possibly have?"
Chen Yue stared intently at the figure, scrutinizing it repeatedly, but couldn't find anything suspicious.
The dead end just now struck six ice spikes, piercing the illusory Chen Yue's body with six deep holes.
But it was still to no avail, and it returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
Facing such an opponent filled Chen Yue with a sense of despair.
"Is the second level of the Ancient Tower of Babel really that difficult?"
If this were outside, even if it were someone at the King Realm or Venerable Realm, Chen Yue wouldn't even blink an eye.
But the situation is different now; we are in a void, an illusion, and we are not even inside the Ancient Tower of Babel.
When faced with problems, one can only solve them on one's own and cannot seek help from anyone outside, not even the Great Emperor Qingxuan or the Great Emperor Tianji.
Chen Yue couldn't find the problem for the time being, so he could only focus his attention on the spiritual abode in the illusory Chen Yue's source sea.
"Could this spiritual abode be his weakness?"
Chen Yue wasn't entirely sure, but this was the only somewhat suspicious spot he could find at the moment.
Simply defending is not the solution. If you have a guess, you should act boldly. If you fail, you will have a second chance to try and make a mistake.
If I succeed, I will definitely thank myself for my previous decisiveness.
Their gazes were fixed on the illusory Chen Yue's spiritual palace, and his right hand, holding the Heavenly Crimson Hammer, was itching to strike.
As Chen Yue let out a long sigh, two dark red figures flickered in mid-air.
The sounds of clashing weapons continued to echo, and the tyrannical source power seemed poised to destroy this small world.
The raging fire illuminated the dark void.
Two bodies enveloped in source energy collided back and forth in mid-air, each collision of the giant hammers causing the space to tremble.
Chen Yue remained highly vigilant throughout the battle, repeatedly using his moves to deflect the attacks of the illusory Chen Yue.
His only goal was the spiritual palace hidden in the illusory Chen Yueyuan Sea position.
The right opportunity hasn't been found yet, but once he seizes it...
They will use all their strength to hammer that small and fragile spiritual palace.
Chen Yue held a Source Explosion in his hand, threw it into the air, and swung the Heavenly Crimson Hammer to smash it down.
The speed of its flight even produced a series of afterimages, tracing a dark red arc.
In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the illusory Chen Yue and exploded without the slightest pause.
The illusory Chen Yue was not physically harmed, but he was still taken aback by the sudden source explosion.
This brief, almost negligible pause was a rare opportunity that Chen Yue seized during the battle.
When the illusory Chen Yue came to his senses, he raised his terrifying face.
The Crimson Hammer of the Heavenly Extreme, burning with raging dark flames, had already appeared directly in front of them.
Chen Yue aimed precisely and smashed into the spirit palace.
He exhausted all his strength and swung the hammer to deliver the fatal blow.
Upon hearing the crisp cracking sound, a relieved smile instantly appeared on Chen Yue's face.
"Did you make it?"
Even so, Chen Yue still dared not relax, and just to be on the safe side, he swung the hammer a few more times.
Only when he could no longer hear the sound of shattering did Chen Yue dare to retreat to a distance, still somewhat doubtful.
He gripped the Crimson Heaven Hammer with both hands, ready to counterattack at any moment.
Chen Yue only guessed at the weakness of the Spirit Mansion; he had no idea how the illusory Chen Yue would react after the Spirit Mansion was damaged.
Standing at a distance, they observed the every move of the illusory Chen Yue.
In mid-air, the dark red figure seemed to dim somewhat.
There was an indescribable strangeness about his aura; he hovered motionless in mid-air, seemingly unsure of what to do.
The spiritual palace, formed from primal energy, had shattered into pieces.
The illusory Chen Yue's body grew increasingly dim, nearing the point of dissipation.
Although the scene unfolding before Chen Yue felt somewhat unreal, he finally saw a glimmer of hope for victory.
He let out a heavy sigh, and the tension in his heart eased.
"It seems that this seemingly insignificant spiritual abode is the key to breaking the deadlock in this illusory space."
"The solution to break the deadlock has always been there; I was overcomplicating things."
"Six ice spikes pierced his chest but failed to cause any damage, so I subconsciously included every part of his body within the scope of repair."
"The most vulnerable point of human Source Beings is the Source Sea, and I didn't expect that this inhuman monster would be the same."
Chen Yue stood on the ground, quietly waiting for the illusory world to collapse, imagining the scene changing after he opened his eyes.
It could be the second level of the Ancient Tower of Babel, or it could be a direct return to the real world.
In Chen Yue's view, getting rid of that inhuman monster and leaving this boundless void was more important than anything else.
Just as he was expecting things to go in a positive direction, the unexpected turn of events completely shocked Chen Yue.
The illusory Chen Yue, who should have vanished into nothingness, actually began to absorb the surrounding source energy and re-condense his spiritual palace.
The figure that was about to disappear quickly returned to its original state.
The spirit condensed and entered the source sea, standing opposite Chen Yue with the illusory Crimson Hammer in hand.
His face wore a bright smile, full of sarcasm.
Chen Yue's relaxed mood tightened again, and his head was buzzing.
He had already prepared to leave, but unexpectedly, he was hit with another blow.
"Wasn't shattering the Spirit Mansion the key to breaking the deadlock? I was wrong."
"If it's not this, then what could it be?"
Chen Yue fell into deep self-doubt, unable to understand it no matter how hard he tried.
In a state of tension and anxiety, Chen Yue stared at the figure that resembled himself and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
It seems that he has been fixated on the illusory Chen Yue himself, without considering a fundamental question.
That is, the illusory Chen Yue is formed from source power, and the source power comes from this illusory world.
The problem isn't with Chen Yue in the void, but with this entire illusory world.
After figuring this out, Chen Yue suddenly understood.
Ultimately, this illusory space still belongs to the Ancient Tower of Babel.
As the master of the Ancient Tower of Babel, he can not only mobilize source power, but also control and utilize it.
Chen Yue clapped his hands excitedly, "That's right, I was indeed overthinking it. The way to break the deadlock is even simpler than shattering his spiritual mansion!"
Having figured all this out, Chen Yue felt even more joyful than when he had just shattered the Spirit Mansion.
The source power here is at his disposal, and the illusory Chen Yue formed by the source power is also part of the source power of the illusory space.
Therefore, the monster that Chen Yue saw as neither human nor ghost was clearly his own.
The illusory Chen Yue's source power surged, still attempting to obliterate Chen Yue in this space.
Unfortunately, the situation has changed dramatically, and the body that the illusory Chen Yue was so proud of has become a huge flaw.
With that confidence back, Chen Yue's sense of crisis had long since vanished without a trace.
Chen Yue is just a figment of imagination, a plaything to be manipulated at will.
