The so-called Twisted God was the ultimate monster Eigel created based on the characteristics of those corpse-men.
Even with Eigel's Cataclysm-level strength, he could only create one such monster.
Unless this Twisted God died, Eigel could not create a new monster of the same level.
He had placed many of his ideas within the Twisted God, but he was unsure if these ideas could truly exist.
Seeing the Twisted God's battle with the Dark Night Knight, Eigel finally put his mind at ease. The current Twisted God was invincible!
The Twisted God's power did not lie in its massive body. For Cataclysm-level powerhouses, body size held little significance.
Its true power resided in the dense, small corpse-men covering its body.
Eggshells or the carapaces of crustaceans were mostly curved, as this allowed force to be diffused across the entire shell when attacked at a single point, distributing the load to the whole structure and thus enhancing defense.
Most energy shields used by superhumans for defense operated on this principle.
But the Twisted God was different. No matter how powerful the attack, the Twisted God absorbed it completely. However, these attacks only affected one of the corpse-men on its body at most.
This meant that no matter how strong the attack, it would only cause a small patch of its skin to break at most. This gave the Twisted God near-perfect defensive capabilities.
It sounded unreasonable, but this was the nature of Cataclysm-level beings and Star Realm Gods; they were simply illogical creatures.
Previously, watching the Twisted God fight the Dark Night Knight was merely to test the Twisted God's capabilities. Now, Eigel would finally go all out.
His body merged into the Twisted God's palm, and the Twisted God's body rapidly writhed and transformed.
The Dark Night Knight seized the opportunity to unleash several attacks, attempting to interrupt the transformation, but each attack caused only negligible damage.
"No wonder he dared to attack me this time. This thing is quite interesting..."
"Quite interesting? It's more than just interesting. You'll die here!"
Eigel had completed his transformation and began to stretch his body, experiencing the immense, revitalized power.
After merging with the Twisted God, he assumed a posture where three people embraced back-to-back.
It wasn't just an extra pair of hands and legs; his strength, speed, and reaction time had all been elevated significantly. Moreover, the Twisted God's previously vacant expression became agile and lively.
Previously, Eigel had faced the Dark Night Knight like a helpless scholar. Now, his muscular strength far surpassed that of the Dark Night Knight!
The Dark Night Knight took a breath, and two short swords slid out from his sleeves. He lunged at Eigel again, this time intending to engage in close-quarters combat.
Despite the vast difference in their size, with one like an ant and the other a giant, their battle shook the earth.
Wen Wen and Qiao Feiya, the two spectators, had to constantly dodge and weave just to watch safely. The other creatures in the dark forest, however, were utterly annihilated. But there was nothing good here to begin with, so Wen Wen felt no pity even if they were all wiped out.
Boom!
They collided with full force, the shockwave creating a massive circular crater around them, sending both flying.
The Dark Night Knight stopped halfway through his flight, then flashed to Wen Wen's side, grabbed Wen Wen by the shoulder, and reappeared on the battlefield.
"Why did you call me over? That guy is so disgusting," Wen Wen said with a shudder, pointing at Eigel. "You can't handle him?"
The Dark Night Knight shook his head. "I can handle him, but the cost would be too great. I have a better method."
"This Twisted God appears invincible, but it actually has a weakness."
"After testing it just now, I discovered that attacks with extremely high single-instance power have no effect on it. Only attacks with moderate power and sufficient quantity can effectively damage it."
"I have my eyes on your Evil Tongue Ten Thousand Swords technique. Ten thousand swords are just the right quantity."
Being able to participate in this kind of battle without transforming slightly enticed Wen Wen, but he immediately asked, "Although my attacks are sufficient in quantity, their single-instance power is insufficient. They might not even be able to break its defense."
The Dark Night Knight tapped his belt again, and a semicircular bronze gate appeared. The bronze gate slowly opened, revealing only a vast expanse of white inside.
"Before your swords fly out, passing through this will effectively wound him."
The two had barely exchanged a few words before Eigel attacked.
"Time is tight, so let's cut to the chase. You focus on attacking, and I'll handle the rest!"
Wen Wen nodded, took a deep breath, drew his Blood River Sword, and unleashed the Evil Tongue Ten Thousand Swords technique.
Wen Wen understood what the Dark Night Knight had said.
In game terms, no matter how powerful an attack Eigel took now, he would only receive a tiny amount of true damage.
The Dark Night Knight, though his output was explosive, dealing millions of damage with each move, could only make Eigel lose a little bit of health with these ultimate attacks.
Wen Wen was different. Although his output was low, with his ultimate move dealing ten thousand damage, this was executed ten thousand times, meaning Eigel would receive ten thousand points of true damage.
Tens of thousands of black light swords, under Wen Wen's command, passed through the bronze gate. After passing through, the black swords turned into white light swords.
During this process, Eigel swung his fists twice towards Wen Wen's direction, but both were blocked by the Dark Night Knight, preventing any attack from disrupting Wen Wen.
After all the energy swords had been converted, Wen Wen waved his hand at Eigel, and these white light swords flew towards him.
Eigel's body was excessively large, but with his agility, Wen Wen could still miss him. However, with the Dark Night Knight's interference, he could only endure Wen Wen's attacks.
These light swords landed on Eigel one by one. The corpse-men struck by the swords immediately turned into bloody water, and the effect exceeded Wen Wen's expectations.
In just a moment, Eigel's massive body showed multiple rotten areas, and his aura had weakened significantly.
Wen Wen continued to attack while summoning a white light sword. Upon closer examination, he realized that the light sword had not actually become stronger; it had even lost its offensive properties.
After a few seconds of thought, he understood. The nature of the light gate was likely to convert offensive power into healing power.
Normally, this would not be suitable for combat, but for a monster like Eigel, composed of twisted flesh and blood, healing power was the equivalent of poison.
Therefore, these light swords had a克制 (kèzhì - counteracting/restraining) effect on Eigel, allowing them to inflict effective damage.
Wen Wen looked at the Dark Night Knight's belt with a strange expression. How many powerful items were hidden within it?
He had always considered himself resourceful, but compared to the Dark Night Knight, he was far inferior.
It was likely that if Eigel hadn't suddenly become Cataclysm-level, the Dark Night Knight would have had no difficulty dealing with him. Various counter-measures would have been enough to subdue him completely.
