405 Chapter 397: The Clone vs Huan Jue!

"Hmm?" Utmost Being was sitting cross-legged in the air to control the Supreme Spatial Imprisonment Formation when he sensed the presence of someone materializing in front of him and opened his eyes.

"Huan Jue of the Dark Sect, isn't this quite impudent for you to show your face before me? Are you asking for mercy on your inevitable death perhaps?" he said with a chilling voice, full of disdain towards the other party, like an overlord looking at an ant!

Through his mind connections with Duan Li right now, he was able to know the latter's identity quite easily.

Huan Jue was silent despite the provocation, and it was difficult to discern his state of emotion as his face was calm and collected.

"I have at least 10 percent chances of escaping this imprisonment formation if I disturb you." Huan Jue replied, declaring his intentions bluntly as he stared right into Utmost Being's eyes.

Hearing this, Utmost Being laughed out loud.

"Hahahahahaha! Atrocious! To dare be boastful in front of me, though I commend your honesty, there will be a heavy price for you to pay today for such boldness!"

Although ten percent chances was quite low, the other party was still implying that it was possible to beat him. This made the prideful clone felt challenged!

Superior Form release!

BOOOMMM!!

Utmost Being's aura radically shot through the sky as his body was surrounded with blue sparks and his hair turned golden!

"Hmm.."

Tap! Tap!

With this showcase of strength, Huan Jue had to retreat a few meters away and observed the Imperial Overseer's clone with a slight frown.

"This clone is far too unusual... Not only that it has its own soul and personality, its strength is quite formidable as well..."

To think that my Soul Severing Demon Eyes did not work on this clone too..

How can such a clone exist in this world?

"Hahahahaha! Now that you've seen this form, if you are a man, what are the chances now for you to succeed in your previous plan? Ah? Tell me!"

Wengg!!

Utmost Being summoned numerous sharp and murderous spiritual swords that was blue in color around him just by flicking his fingers together, locking the position of Huan Jue to attack at anytime!

"My chance of succeeding now has decreased to five percent. But it is still possible to increase." Huan Jue replied calmly, his previous frown was gone.

"Good! Good! Let this father make you a promise then! I will never move from this spot and will attack you just like this!"

Pew! Pew! Pew!

Utmost Being was enraged that Huan Jue was still answering his previous question as if it was a matter of fact with such a calm composure. For him, this was the other party blatantly not giving him any face!

I am the Imperial Overseer dammit!

At the same time however, Utmost Being didn't dare to drop his guard at all nor underestimate this opponent in front of him. In addition, it was not that he was bragging, but that he truly wasn't able to move in his current state. Thus, he might as well made it seemed like he was giving the other party a handicap!

"Somehow, I don't like his presence... it feels different than other humans or monsters..."

Whoosh!

The spiritual swords that attacked Huan Jue passed through his body as if it was nothing!

Seeing this, Utmost Being was surprised for the first time!

"Impossible! His presence is there! How can he not be affected by my attacks? Again!"

Pew! Pew! Pew!

The same thing happened as before, and non of his attacks could reach or harm Huan Jue's body!

Meanwhile, the other party continued to stare at him intently.

This bastard is trying to analyze me?!

"My chance of success is now 7 percent and increasing." Huan Jue suddenly said with a nod.

"Hmph!" Utmost Being snorted and went to attack again by flicking his fingers. But when it was obvious that his attack was not reaching Huan Jue, he became impatient!

Prick! Prick!

Veins popped on Utmost Being's forehead. "Truly arrogant. Before my existence, you are nothing more but an ant! Trying to show off before me means death!"

First-Desolation: Warring Intent!

BOOMMM!!

Seeing that the clone of the Imperial Overseer had released another surge of power again, which made it even stronger than before, Huan Jue's frown had become quite deep this time!

This clone has more tricks up its sleeve?

"It's not over yet!"

Raising his hand to the sky, the entire area suddenly turned dark before thunders began to rumble and lightning coiled themselves like dragons!

BOOOMM!! BOOMM!!!

Eight surges of golden lightning then came out from the eight cardinal directions before merging together on one spot above his hand!

BOOMM!!!

After they merged together, a huge golden war axe made of golden lightnings was formed!

All-Slaying Eternal Great Axe!

"What? A Spirit Weapon?!"

Huan Jue quickly blinked a few hundred meters away when the golden axe was grasped by Utmost Being!

It really is a spirit weapon... no doubt...

With the golden axe grasped, Utmost Being's prowess increased once more!

Whoosh!!

With a wave of his hand, Utmost Being threw the golden axe full of murderous intent to Huan Jue!

This time, something strange happened.

Due to the nature of the golden axe, the path that it passed through was electrified and burnt, sending random sparks of lightning all over. But when it finally hits Huan Jue, although it still passed through him, his figure seems to be distorted for a split second before returning to normal!

"Hmm?"

With the Utmost Being observant attitude, he of course detected this small clue and a theory sprouted in his mind. So, in order to confirm this, he repeated the same attack for a few times until he was confident!

"I see.. you are using a special kind of illusion technique! Hmph!" Utmost being snorted.

An illusion technique was not too uncommon to be practiced between cultivators. In fact, it was mainly used to create defensive skill art and confuse their opponents!

Prehaps, the only weaknesses would be that its most sensitive with elemental weapons, such as his golden axe!

Therefore, arriving at this conclusion was not too farfetched!

"..." Huan Jue remained silent to this and didn't reply to him at all, only maintaining eye contact and calm demeanor as before.

However, this made Duan Li's clone even more convinced that his previous assumptions was correct!

The only problem that still remained was, what kind of illusion technique was this Huan Jue using? It seemed so effortless at that!

Usually, illusion techniques would inhibit the opponents mind and disrupt their movements, and experts could even beguile their enemies to commit suicide this way!

Unfortunately, no matter how formidable the illusion tecniques were, in the end, they were still illusion used as a defensive technique such as for restraining purposes, and only a genius would be able to transform this into such a peculiar technique as showcased by Huan Jue!

But does this mean that Utmost Being has no way of knowing the weakness of his opponent?

That seems to be highly unlikely!
