Chapter 4205 Modification And Adaptation

"Zen, are you okay? Can you hear me?" The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord was obviously worried.

It didn't matter how powerful Zen's body was. He still couldn't quite compare to the Treacherous Beings. He must have suffered a great deal after being hit by the irregular heavy sword.

"Yes, I'm fine. Don't worry about me," responded Zen. He winced just as he finished saying this.

The problem was not the heavy sword itself, but this world. The rules in this place were completely modified.

Nevertheless, he was very familiar with the modification of rules.

The universe, the divine land, the Source World, and the Other Shore all had different sets of rules. They were set when these places were just constructed. But with enough strength, it would be possible for someone to alter them.

It was the simplest to modify the rules of the inner world. For instance, it was fairly easy for Zen to change the rules in his primitive land.

There was no doubt that the movements of the irregular heavy sword were extraordinarily fast. But with his theurgy, he definitely could have avoided it.

Unfortunately, the rules of this boundless world had been changed. Therefore, his theurgy was totally useless. The space theurgy he previously demonstrated was rendered ineffective.

Swish! All of a sudden, he heard a strange rushing sound.

The heavy armor that disappeared in the darkness reappeared unexpectedly. It reached out and made a gentle grabbing motion. At once, the irregular heavy sword returned to its hand.

Afterward, there was a buzzing sound coming from where the heavy armor was.

Buzz! From a distance, Zen saw peculiar lights shining one after another.

The buzzing sound was apparently coming from those strange lights.

Upon closer inspection, those lights were actually coming from the runes embedded on the surface of the black armor. They were lighting up consequently.

Earlier, the heavy armor seemed lifeless and impassive. After the runes lit up, it suddenly became full of vitality.

When Zen confronted the armor a while ago, he merely treated it as a dead thing, although he could clearly sense the unpleasant aura of the Treacherous Being. He thought that his real opponent here was the irregular heavy sword.

Now, it seemed as though the irregular heavy sword had summoned the black armor. Slowly, it was coming to life.

Soon enough, two blood-red dots lit up within the armor's helmet. It gave the black armor a more menacing aura.

"What in the world..."

There was an unusually grave expression upon Zen's handsome face.

This time, the black armor felt like a living person to him. Maybe it was even an exceptional top master.

It radiated with a strong aura of life and soul. Meanwhile, the aura of the Treacherous Being still existed within the armor. He

ody, Kincaid was deep in thought. He started to process what he just witnessed.

The Death Sword was able to make the basic rules.

All living beings in this space had to follow the basic rules in order to survive.

No one could ever go against the rules.

However, Zen was still alive after battling with the sword for such a long time!

Where on earth did he come from? How strong was he?

This was completely beyond Kincaid's understanding. He couldn't quite figure out why.

'I see. You can adapt to the rules that have already been changed by the Death Sword twice now. You really are as talented as I was in the past. But if it continuously changes the basic rules, you are going to be in grave danger, ' he thought to himself.

Everyone's ability was limited and fixed. Perhaps Zen's bloodline power could withstand the twice revised basic rules purely by luck and coincidence. But if the Death Sword frequently adjusted the basic rules, in the end, he would still be killed.

Kincaid wanted to warn Zen about this. Unfortunately, he couldn't.

Just like Kincaid predicted, the irregular heavy sword modified the basic rules once more. Zen's body suddenly became awfully heavy. It seemed like it was made of lead. Moreover, the weight of all the materials in this world increased ten thousand times over.

If Zen didn't figure out the right technique, he would suffer another blow like last time.

Fortunately, the ancestry-level bloodline had also adapted. Whenever any of the basic rules were changed, it would use a new ability to help Zen adjust.

When the rules were altered for the third time, it only took Zen a brief moment to readjust his perception.

The black armor didn't quite expect that Zen would manage to adapt in such a short span of time. Nonetheless, it carried on with its assault.

But this time, Zen was ready to fight back.
