Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled! 254 Chapter 247: Last Man Standing!

Both figure spurted out a mouthful of blood before they fell down from the sky like a pair of kites that has just lost their wind.

Cras.h.!.+

"Y-You.. crazy.." the Clone muttered each word with utmost difficulty as it struggled to stand up from the ground. But no matter how it tried, the best it could do was to use one of its knees to support itself.

To think that this original of his had used the Doomsday Calamity Fists in that final moment, it was totally out of his wildest imaginations!

After all, their cultivation was only at the pinnacle stage of the Core formation realm, and pus.h.i.+ng their body with Super mode 2 combined with the Warring Intent, had already exceeded the threshold limits of their body by several folds!

Perhaps, it was only due to Duan Li's modified meridians and Qi pathways that was different from others that had made the whole transformation to be successful in the first place.

Therefore, using the Doomsday Calamity Fists, a fist art that was well beyond what their current body could handle even in their base form, was truly what could be described as a suicide move in such a condition, aiming for a mutual destruction of both parties!

In fact, had he not performed that last minute dodge, he would have been incinerated to ashes!

Still, even though he already dodged, the impact was far too destructive and left him hanging by his last breath!

This goes to show that the Doomsday Calamity Fists was a technique meant to truly ma.s.sacre one's enemies!

At the thought of all these, the Clone felt s.h.i.+ver ran down his spine as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Gulp!

And as expected, Duan Li on the opposite end of him was not faring that much better either. He was laying on the ground covered with blood all over his body, looking more wretched than his clone.

At this moment, both of them had expended their spiritual Qi reserves to zero, and since their internal body state was terribly damaged, even absorbing spiritual Qi from the surrounding became an impossible task for them.

Right now, the only way for them to recover was to let their body ran through its natural course of regeneration for a while before they could absorb spiritual Qi once more.

Huu..!!

Suddenly, Duan Li began to slowly stood up as well in that frightful condition of his. At first, he used both of his arms to prop himself up from the ground and then his knees.

"AAAAHHHHHH!!"

Finally, with a loud bellow to the sky, Duan Li managed to force himself up on his legs, his back standing straight like a tall mountain, and his pair of clear but sharp eyes stared right into his clone's eyes, causing the latter's heart to tremble!

'Suuu.. '

A gust of warm wind blew right over them, causing Duan Li's long black hair to flutter accordingly, magnifying his figure into something more majestic and mysterious at the same time.

If people were to see at their current state, where one was single-kneeling and the other was standing tall like a pillar, people would mistook them as a loyal servant kneeling in respect in front of his Liege!

'This is a different feeling...' the clone thought to itself.

The trembling in his heart was no longer due to anger and frustrations, but instead a mixture of fear, respect and veneration!

He shook his head and smiled. Then, after recovering a bit of strength, the Clone stood up slowly as well.

This caused Duan Li to feel a little helpless.

"Persistent b.a.s.t.a.r.d.." he thought to himself.

However, contrary to his expectations that the other party would continue to attack him, the Clone spoke calmly instead.

"For the first time ever since I was created, I lost against an original.. Congratulations!"

Hearing this, Duan Li was surprised.

Hmm?

"First time? Then what happened to all the previous cultivators that went through this same trial? You killed them all?" Duan Li frowned.

While he has no qualms of people dying in this trial, the fact that he was the first one to beat this Clone still unnerved him.

After all, this was a trial meant to temper a cultivator, so fatalities was always part of the equation. However, to think that for all those uncountable years, where numerous cultivators before him had all failed while he was the only one whom had successfully cleared this last trial..

Isn't this trial a little bit too difficult?

No, perhaps that was even a sheer understatement!

This was pretty much impossible to be cleared!

"What? Of course not!" the Clone quickly waved its hand to deny the matter.

"The criteria to pa.s.s this trial was actually not to defeat me, but for the original to push themselves beyond their normal limits! Once they have done that, regardless if they lost against me, they would actually pa.s.s the trial!" the clone continued as it lightly chuckled.

Puu!!

This revelation caused Duan Li to almost spurt another mouthful of blood.

b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

Why didn't you tell this to me earlier?

I could've just pushed myself a little bit than normal and pa.s.sed this trial without incurring this much injury on me!

Had it not because he was sapped of all strength and talking was the only ability he has right now, Duan Li would love to go for another round with this Clone of his.

"But.. how can no one was able to defeat you all these while? As far as my a.n.a.lysis went during our battle, you are only as strong as the original themselves.." Duan Li said after he pondered for a while.

Since this trial was meant for Foundation Establishment realm cultivators, how is defeating something like that even pose a challenge?

As if the Clone was able to read Duan Li's inner thoughts, it quickly replied, "Don't you remember my hidden abilities? I could increase my strength by several folds! Not everyone is a monster like you.."

"Ohh.." realization dawned upon Duan Li.

Thinking about it, the Clone was right.

Since the Clone's overall battle prowess scaled with the original, the stronger the cultivator, the stronger will be its abilities. Therefore, if the Clone were to stack its own abilities on top of that..

It was no wonder why no one could win!

Is this even a fair trial?

"You are truly out of my expectations. This is my first time copying an original with battle prowess on a level beyond the mortal realm. In addition, you even won against me!" the Clone applauded and nodded its head approvingly, and due to its aged appearance after exerting itself to the maximum before, he seemed like an elder acknowledging a talented student of his!

Somehow, although the other party looked sincere in congratulating him, Duan Li felt like he wanted to slap the Clone for saying that.

Screw you!

"Hmph! It was only natural. After all, how can an original be unable to beat their own clone? Perhaps, all those you've encountered thus far were all weak cultivators!" Duan Li said in his defense.

The Clone wanted to laugh out loud when it heard this.

Weak?

How can those cultivators that managed to enter the Eternal Maze be weak?

Its only that you are a monster in your own cla.s.s..

"Anyway, what do I get for being the last man standing in this match?"
