You Can't Win Against Me, Because I'm Not Like You

"How is this possible?"

It was Li Poyun, his face blank as he stared at Chen Dafeng in disbelief.

He couldn't understand why such a monstrous combat talent still existed in this world!

He had been on the brink of death, his last breath almost gone. How could this man still stand and grow stronger?

"Break it!" A rasping scream echoed from the darkness, a voice belonging to Xu Ka.

He had once again stolen the woman's ability, combining it with the power of the two most powerful support talents to strip away Chen Dafeng's current strength.

The boy couldn't believe that his strongest SS-level talent could fail!

"Whoosh!"

A streak of dark light pierced the fog, aiming straight for Chen Dafeng.

The power to break couldn't be evaded!

This was a direct assault on all lower-tier states. As long as Chen Dafeng was still in his SS-level talent state, he could never dodge the power of the 'Break'!

Even if he had become stronger, as long as he hadn't broken through to the final tier, he wouldn't be able to resist!

But this time, Chen Dafeng didn't dodge at all. He allowed the dark light of 'Break' to strike him without resistance.

"Boom!"

A sharp crack echoed, and a golden shimmer appeared around Chen Dafeng. The breaking light shattered instantly, scattering into the air.

"Useless!"

Xu Ka's hoarse voice rang out in disbelief and panic: "This can't be! We're the same tier! How can you block my talent?!"

The boy's trump card was powerless. Chen Dafeng had defied the 'Break' in a way that Xu Ka couldn't comprehend. He had been suppressed by the same talent in their previous fight—why had it suddenly failed?

Xu Ka didn't understand, but Mike did.

"It's the God of War's return... Before Wang Chen left, he gave him a new trump card."

Mike analyzed Chen Dafeng's physical data and was thrilled to find that the boy had been hiding so much!

He had a trump card, but he hadn't used it until now.

The effect of the 'God of War's Return' allowed any friendly units marked by Wang Chen to randomly inherit three of Wang Chen's talents. Additionally, when severely injured or on the brink of death, the unit could be reborn.

Mike didn't know exactly how Chen Dafeng had suppressed the effect of this return temporarily until now. But he could see three new talents in Chen Dafeng's data.

[Heaven and Earth Resonance - Return]: Communicate with nature for divine assistance, controlling fate with divine power!

[Battle Instinct - Return]: Flawless combat, ignoring all constraints and targeting effects!

[Reverse Combat - Return]: During battle, reverse 10-30 seconds of time, removing actions within that window in a 300-meter radius!

These were Wang Chen's talents, now briefly mastered by Chen Dafeng!

Even though these three abilities were weaker than their original form, they still gave Chen Dafeng a massive boost.

Mike could see that Chen Dafeng's base data had already surpassed 300,000!

"No wonder he waited until now to unleash the full power of the 'Return' to maximize its effects!"

"By holding onto the 'God of War's Return' card, he essentially has another chance to defy death!"

"This guy… Did Wang Chen teach him this strategy?"

Mike let out a deep breath, realizing he had underestimated the boy. He couldn't help but laugh, the weight on his heart lifting.

"Why wait any longer? Go for it!"

"Boom!"

As if hearing Mike's shout, Chen Dafeng's figure vanished, only to reappear in the next moment, stepping out from the shadows.

A scream echoed from the mist.

"Ah!"

"Boom!"

A burst of fresh blood splattered across the fog. The head of the man wielding the black rope was thrown high into the air, his face still frozen in shock, unable to express the terror before death.

The head rolled on the ground, and behind it, Chen Dafeng stepped forward, his feet leaving trails of blood.

He didn't speak, only wearing a sneer of satisfaction.

"You!"

Li Poyun felt a chill run down his spine. He instinctively took a step back, his eyes wide with panic as he watched Chen Dafeng.

He saw the man's severed foot beginning to heal before his eyes, and as Chen Dafeng stepped into the pool of blood, his foot restored completely. Even his severed left arm was now whole again, bathed in a golden glow.

Tiny golden beams of light rained down from all directions, swirling around Chen Dafeng, as his hollow eye sockets began to regenerate, his eyes once again full of life and vitality!

The heavens themselves were healing him!

"Is this Wang Chen's talent?" Chen Dafeng twisted his neck, then tilted his head, grinning at Li Poyun.

"You know? Now I can be called 'God' too."

His movements were so arrogant, so domineering, that Mike couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

"Well then, who's next to die?"

Chen Dafeng's eyes narrowed, and he turned his gaze toward the darkness. He saw Yue Yue hiding there.

"Nice knife. I like it."

Chen Dafeng licked his cracked lips, his eyes suddenly burning with murderous intent.

"That knife's mine now!"

"Oh no!"

Li Poyun panicked, almost instinctively rushing forward: "Yue Yue! Run!"

Li Poyun squeezed every ounce of power from his talent, moving with near-light speed to intercept Chen Dafeng.

His fist was raised high, shining with dazzling brilliance!

"Chen Dafeng, this isn't over!"

Li Poyun shouted, almost seeing his iron fist landing on Chen Dafeng's back.

But the next second, Li Poyun froze in horror as he saw the air around his fist dissipate, his energy fading as his body was forced back.

It was as if time was rewinding around him… No! It was only him!

He was ripped from the present moment, and in the blink of an eye, he was back where he started!

"What… what is this?!"

Li Poyun stood dazed, unable to comprehend what had just happened, as all the power within him returned to its original state, ready to burst out again.

Was it an illusion?

Li Poyun couldn't understand, but then he saw Chen Dafeng tilt his head and give him a scornful look.

"I told you. I'm a god now."

"You don't deserve to be here."

"Boom!!"

Just as Chen Dafeng's voice fell, the darkness exploded into a spray of blood!

Li Poyun's pupils constricted as he quickly looked up, but after a brief silence, Chen Dafeng emerged from the shadows.

He wasn't covered in blood, but in his right hand, he was twirling a sharp dagger, the glint of the blade blinding Li Poyun's eyes.

It was Yue Yue's knife!

She was dead. Silently. Without any resistance!

"It's a nice knife, too bad it was used by the wrong person."

Chen Dafeng muttered as he played with the blade.

"Chen Dafeng!!"

Li Poyun's voice was hoarse, filled with rage and sorrow.

Chen Dafeng lifted his head, meeting the man's terrifying gaze, his chest heaving with each breath, his body visibly growing stronger with every inhale.

He seemed to have used another trump card, his aura now more violent and fierce.

"You killed her… you killed her…"

Li Poyun's teeth ground together as anger poured out in waves. Chen Dafeng, unbothered, simply tilted his head.

"What? Was she your girlfriend?"

"I'll make you pay!"

Li Poyun transformed into pure light, charging at Chen Dafeng with a roar!

"Boom!"

The light streaked forward, fast but fleeting. In less than a second, Li Poyun crashed into the dirt with a heavy blow, his head pressed deep into a rock pit.

It was Chen Dafeng, his foot crushing Li Poyun's skull.

No one knew how he'd done it, but Chen Dafeng now resembled a god, so powerful that it was beyond comprehension.

The others in the darkness remained silent, Xu Ka collapsed on the ground, staring in disbelief.

He couldn't understand why the most powerful effect of Li Poyun's 'Breaking Wolf' was so fragile against Chen Dafeng now.

"Does it hurt?" Chen Dafeng crouched down, his face inches from Li Poyun's, his voice laced with amusement as he examined the boy's bloodshot eyes, filled with hatred.

If looks could kill, Chen Dafeng would have already been devoured.

His gaze only made Chen Dafeng's grin more mocking.

"You know, if I die here, will anyone in Dantu feel the pain?"

Chen Dafeng's voice was cool, but his eyes gleamed with ice as he asked, "Will anyone care if Dantu falls, if Guangling is overrun, or if Jinling is affected?"

"My sister, the woman I love... would you mourn for them?"

His voice was mocking, but his gaze was cold and deadly: "Li Poyun, your so-called loyalty is just selfishness in disguise."

"You can't win against me, because I'm not like you."

"Pfft!"

The dagger plunged deep into Li Poyun's skull, his struggles faltering as his body stiffened.

"Boom!!"

With a slight press of his foot, Chen Dafeng crushed Li Poyun's broken head into the dirt, pulverizing it into dust.
