Chapter 87: Rookie Black Phoenix, Careless Angel's First Battle
After seeing Dark Phoenix easily block the Dimensional Slash with the power of the Phoenix, Richard knew that her strength was much stronger than in the movie.
Although not as strong as in the comics, it was obviously several levels higher than in the movie.
Apart from anything else, it was unlikely that the Dark Phoenix in the movie would be unscathed by the Dimensional Slash.
Even Wolverine's adamantium claws could kill her in the movie, so Dimensional Slash was certainly not a problem.
After confirming that Dark Phoenix was much stronger than in the movie, Richard gave up the idea of using X-gene superpowers to attack Dark Phoenix.
Although he had just performed an ordinary Dimensional Slash, even so, the power of Dimensional Slash was stronger than most of the X-gene superpowers he had now.
It seems that he can only use the template skills!
Richard sighed in his heart.
Then, he held the handle of the authentic sword with both hands.
Under the gaze of Dark Phoenix, he exerted force with both hands at the same time, one on the left and one on the right.
Yama Sword!
He took out the Yama Sword that had been fused into the authentic sword.
Authentic sword in left hand, Yama Sword in right hand!
Although Black Phoenix didn't know what Richard was up to, she immediately raised her right hand and pointed her palm at Richard when she saw him holding the sword with both hands and a faint magical light shining on his body.
Phoenix Power!
Without any hesitation, Black Phoenix used the Phoenix Power again.
Unlike the telekinetic impact that could not be detected by the naked eye just now, the Phoenix Power released by Black Phoenix this time flew towards Richard at a high speed like a dark red laser.
Facing this laser-like Phoenix Power, Richard did not use teleportation to leave, nor did he use energy absorption, but swung the authentic sword in his left hand.
Eight Swords Flash!
Eight smooth slashes were swung out in an instant, slashing at the incoming Phoenix Power.
Although Eight Swords Flash is not a defensive skill, it does not mean that Eight Swords Flash cannot be used for defense.
After upgrading the Eight Blades Flash to level 4, Richard found that it was also quite good to use the Eight Blades Flash for defense.
If the Eight Blades Flash upgraded to level 3, he mastered the ability to freely adjust the power and consumption of the Eight Blades Flash.
Then after upgrading to level 4, his mastery of the Eight Blades Flash has reached the realm of being able to cut both matter and energy.
In simple terms, the current Eight Blades Flash can cut everything except the soul and mind.
In terms of energy properties, the Phoenix Force is undoubtedly a high-level energy in the Marvel Universe.
The Phoenix Force comes from the original primitive universe, born at the beginning of all things. It is the embodiment of life and spiritual power, the connection point of the spiritual mind of all things, and the creator and source of spiritual power.
If it is a complete Phoenix Force, don't say that Richard can't deal with it now.
Even if he obtains the complete templates of Virgil, Superboy Prime, and Darkseid, he may not be able to deal with it.
But the incomplete Phoenix Force is another matter.
Although Richard had not fought with the Black Phoenix for a long time, he had already seen that the Black Phoenix's Phoenix Power was incomplete.
Not only that, he also found that the degree of integration between the Black Phoenix and the Phoenix Power was not particularly high.
Although the Black Phoenix could use the Phoenix Power at this time, her use of the Phoenix Power was still at a very basic stage.
Otherwise, even if the Phoenix Power was incomplete and not highly integrated, the Black Phoenix would have an absolute advantage.
As the Eight Swords Flashed, the Phoenix Power that attacked like a laser cannon was blocked by the Eight Swords Flash, or it was chopped into pieces and scattered everywhere.
While using the Level 4 Eight Swords Flash to resist the attack of the Phoenix Power, Richard's right hand was not idle, holding the Yama Sword and swinging it at a high speed.
Dimension Slash!
With the Black Phoenix as the center, the surrounding space was instantly distorted, and the space slash formed by the separation of space immediately attacked the Black Phoenix.
Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi...
Just like before, the space slash of the Dimension Slash was blocked by the Phoenix Power before it touched the Black Phoenix's body.
Although he still failed to hit the Black Phoenix, Richard was not surprised.
The Black Phoenix had just proved that it was not easy to injure her even with the Dimension Slash.
The reason why Richard used the Dimension Slash again was not to injure the Black Phoenix, but to confirm his guess.
When the Black Phoenix used the Phoenix Power to resist the Dimension Slash for the first time, a guess flashed through his mind.
The current Black Phoenix could not control the Phoenix Power in detail!
In other words, it was impossible to use the Phoenix Power to attack and protect itself at the same time.
In order to confirm whether his guess was correct, he deliberately separated the authentic sword and the Yama Sword.
When the Black Phoenix once again mobilized the Phoenix Power to resist the Dimension Slash, he knew that he had guessed right.
At the moment when the Black Phoenix controlled the Phoenix Power to protect herself 360 degrees without dead angles, Richard keenly noticed that the attacking Phoenix Power had become "weaker".
Although the laser-like Phoenix Power did not disappear, he could clearly feel that the attacking Phoenix Power had changed.
After discovering this, Richard quickly guessed the reason.
Mind prison!
Dark Phoenix has been imprisoned in the mind prison set up by Professor X for too long!
To put it simply, Dark Phoenix is similar to the clone of Magneto that he had killed before.
Although they all have strong strength, they all lack sufficient experience.
Whether it is experience in controlling energy or combat experience, they are seriously lacking.
Rookies!
They are all absolute rookies.
Although Richard has only been in this world for a short time, more than half a year at most, compared with the Dark Phoenix and Magneto's clones, his combat experience is more than ten times the sum of the two of them.
After confirming that the Dark Phoenix is as inexperienced as Magneto's clones, he soon came up with a new tactic.
Rookies are the easiest to deal with!
Looking at the Dark Phoenix hundreds of meters away from him, Richard slowly raised the Yama Blade.
Dimension Slash!
The space around the Dark Phoenix became distorted again, and the crescent-shaped space slash attacked her from all directions.
Just like before, the Dark Phoenix directly used the Phoenix Power to protect herself without dead ends.
Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi Chi...
When the crescent-shaped space slash attacked the Dark Phoenix, Richard decisively performed teleportation and disappeared in an instant.
Although she lost Richard's trace, Dark Phoenix was not panicked at all.
Not only that, she also showed a disdainful expression on her face.
From her point of view, Richard's teleportation was a sign of helplessness.
It was normal for her to have such thoughts.
After all, up to now, neither Richard nor Professor X had caused any harm to her.
However, she overlooked a very important issue.
That is, Richard was different from Professor X.
Compared with Professor X, he not only had more X-gene superpowers, but also had the skills of character templates.
For example, the Heartless Angel awakened after Sephiroth's template fusion degree was increased to 65%.
Compared with the previous two dimensional slashes, Richard's dimensional slash this time lasted much longer.
If the space slashes of the previous two dimensional slashes were only more than ten.
Then this time, the space slashes of the dimensional slash were hundreds.
In order to create more space slashes, this time the dimensional slash also consumed more magic power.
However, this was not a problem for Richard, whose magic power had already exceeded 5,000 points.
Hundreds of space slashes attacked the Black Phoenix like a storm.
After more than ten seconds, these space slashes finally disappeared.
Although there were more space slashes, like the previous two dimensional slashes, the Black Phoenix was still not injured.
As the space slashes ended, the Black Phoenix immediately looked for Richard's trace.
Where is he?
Soon, the Black Phoenix sensed Richard's trace.
Hiding in the forest behind the main building of the school!
To be precise, in the lake in the forest.
After discovering Richard's trace, the Black Phoenix did not hesitate and immediately mobilized the Phoenix Force.
This time, she did not launch the Phoenix Force like launching a laser, but used the Phoenix Force's ability to control matter.
In just a blink of an eye, the Phoenix Force she released enveloped the entire lake.
After being enveloped by the power of the Phoenix, the lake water was first quickly decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, and then further decomposed into hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms.
As the lake water decomposed rapidly, he saw Richard hiding in the lake, and showed a disdainful smile, letting the Phoenix power covering the lake cover Richard like a cage.
After trapping Richard in the cage formed by the Phoenix power, the Black Phoenix immediately looked at Richard with eyes looking at delicious food.
Then, she raised her right hand, ready to use the Phoenix power to decompose Richard and enjoy the unique and extremely tempting magic in Richard's body.
However, at this moment, the blade of the authentic sword, like a dark purple flame wrapped around it, appeared behind the Black Phoenix, and passed through her body like lightning.
Careless angel!
Swish!
In just a moment, the authentic sword hit the Black Phoenix's body firmly, knocking her out.
Dark Phoenix never thought that the person she imprisoned with the Phoenix Force was just a clone created by Richard using super powers such as energy materialization and water control.
If Dark Phoenix had enough combat experience, she would definitely not let her guard down.
But unfortunately, she is now an out-and-out rookie.
The magic power Richard left in the clone successfully misled her, making her think that it was him who was trapped by the Phoenix Force.
In fact, after leaving the misleading clone in the lake, he used his invisibility ability and used magic to hide his own energy fluctuations, and quietly came behind Dark Phoenix.
Dark Phoenix would never have thought that the attack of the Heartless Angel would instantly hit her hard, making her feel on the verge of death.
The Phoenix Force is indeed an undoubted powerful energy in the Marvel Universe.
But the Phoenix Force did not make Dark Phoenix's strength and life level far beyond Richard.
And this also means that she cannot be exempted from the "causal law"-like serious injury effect of the Heartless Angel.
When Wu Xin Tian Ming hit the defenseless Black Phoenix and knocked her out, Richard used teleportation and came in front of her like a ghost, swinging the Yama Blade in his hand.
Separation!
In just a moment, the Yama Blade passed through the Black Phoenix's body as if it was passing through the air.
Personality separation!
As the Yama Blade passed, a cloud of black mist flew out of the Black Phoenix's body.
After the black mist left the Black Phoenix's body, it quickly condensed into a human form.
In other words, it became another Black Phoenix.
"How does it feel to have your own body?"
"Ms. Black Phoenix!"
Richard said to the Black Phoenix separated by the Yama Blade.
...
