I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1921 - 1315: An Opportunity Blasted Open (Part 2)

After tussling with Zheng Yichen for a while, he was done for.

Unable to catch up with Tia, Zheng Yichen was furious, as if fire was spewing from his orifices.

Without hesitation, he stopped this meaningless self-immolation. Tia, now freed from his grasp, instantly closed in on Zheng Yichen. Accompanied by a harsh screeching sound, a large hole appeared in Zheng Yichen’s chest.

His beating heart was grasped by Tia’s gnarled, almost shattered hand.

Her nearly pulverized arm was covered in a faint glow, which was Zheng Yichen’s stripped consciousness.

Tia used the consciousness she had stripped from Zheng Yichen as a weapon, crushing the heart in her hand, causing a flurry of light particles to spill out.

Holding Zheng Yichen’s consciousness as a weapon, there was a possibility that Zheng Yichen could reclaim this part of his consciousness.

Correspondingly, after inflicting harm on Zheng Yichen, she could also strip away more of his consciousness.

The price, however, was that her almost-shattered arm recovered very slowly.

In the Earth timeline, she was severely affected. The time power mastered by Zheng Yichen was not something she could easily interfere with. The time power severely undermined her regenerative ability, making subsequent actions significantly more sluggish.

But Tia wasn’t in a hurry.

She directly abandoned the arm affected by the time power, allowing it to rot and erode away from her body.

The missing arm quickly returned to normal, but Tia’s aura was significantly weakened, and her appearance became slightly younger.

To restore her body, she needed to borrow from other parts of herself, resulting in an overall shrinking effect on her being.

However, this strike allowed her to successfully strip nearly one-tenth of Zheng Yichen’s consciousness.

Seeing Zheng Yichen’s vacant eyes, the shrunken Tia did not continue her attack; Zheng Yichen was only forcibly stripped of one-tenth of his consciousness, not reduced to an imbecile.

In contrast, the lack of consciousness would only make Zheng Yichen more dangerous; with a weakened self, the individual would become frenzied, like a beast that has lost its reason.

At that time, Zheng Yichen was both the easiest to deal with and the most dangerous.

"I’ll fuck you—" Light returned to Zheng Yichen’s eyes, and the flames of the time-line records burst forth once again. Zheng Yichen, whose consciousness had taken a substantial blow, exploded in rage.

The shrunken Tia, as usual, maintained a look of indifference. As Zheng Yichen rapidly approached, she swiftly retreated, not giving him any chance to touch her.

Even if each of Zheng Yichen’s attacks could cause a large-scale spray, the super-wide attacks would indeed impact her, but the entire Earth timeline would suffer more.

Tia, constantly tugging at Zheng Yichen, kept stripping parts of herself; as soon as any minor Ark of Life erosion appeared on her, she would immediately strip that part away.

The erosion, as long as it didn’t touch her essence, was merely a nuisance. Stripping it away only kept her in a state of slow ’shrinkage,’ and if it weren’t for the fire from the burning time line accompanying Zheng Yichen’s attacks, her body wouldn’t shrink at all.

In Zheng Yichen’s eyes, the world was a sea of fire, and the Tia he kept staring at had transformed from maturity to girlhood... this was not a bonus but rather made Zheng Yichen more irritable.

Before burning Tia to ashes, the Earth timeline he painstakingly cultivated was about to shatter first.

The last chance—

Gritting his teeth, Zheng Yichen reined in the flames, and as he anticipated, Tia seemed to predict it. The instant the flames faded, she appeared before Zheng Yichen.

When he reignited the flames, Tia had already forcibly broken through the distortion of the time power, once again gouging out Zheng Yichen’s heart and retreating.

Then the fire from the time line burning belatedly exploded, and Zheng Yichen’s attempt to lure Tia close met her direct approach.

The heart wasn’t important to Zheng Yichen; what mattered was the impact of her attack.

Tia once more abandoned her nearly shattered arm, the price being that her current appearance was close to that of a fourteen-year-old.

The Earth timeline created by Zheng Yichen was teetering. Tia gazed calmly at Zheng Yichen, knowing that all her expenditure could be instantly recovered once the environment stabilized.

She could even attempt to break this teetering Earth timeline right now.

But her current state had also deteriorated significantly, breaking the Earth timeline would instead give Zheng Yichen an opening. There’s no need to rush; just wait for the Earth timeline to collapse on its own.

No matter how much Zheng Yichen exhausted her, at most, he would only shrink her appearance to that of a ten-year-old, by which point Zheng Yichen would either burn out his time line records or attempt to bait her, placing himself entirely at stake.

In the first scenario, she would feel regret; if Zheng Yichen truly burned all his time line records, the consciousness she held, although usable, would not be the true Zheng Yichen.

A deadlock—this time, Zheng Yichen took a little longer to snap out of it, and without the flames of the burning time line enveloping him, Tia was likely to finish him off.

The self-weakening Zheng Yichen, even his mode of thinking had become somewhat chaotic. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Tia was clearly set on exchanging her own state of existence for Zheng Yichen’s consciousness, and the moment he relaxed, Tia would come up to deliver a critical hit.

This time Zheng Yichen was prepared; when Tia was gouging his heart, he also managed to retrieve a part of his taken consciousness. It’s ultimately a losing game.
