Jiren's aura grew stronger and stronger.
However, in the next second, Jiren's aura suddenly rapidly returned inward. Multiple layers of fiery aura formed an indestructible protective film around his body.
Because of this transformation and compression, his battle power swelled to 4,000 Gou.
Twice as strong as Vegeta's Demonized · Super Saiyan 5!
However, Vegeta would not know that this level of battle power was actually less than even one percent of Jiren's true level.
Vegeta was shocked by this fierce battle power. Although he had not brought out all his strength either, Jiren's pure and powerful strength truly shocked him.
Different from Bloodline Power, Divine Power, Evil Power, and Dark Power...
Jiren's power was a certain extreme strength!
With his aura steady, Jiren's cold gaze stared straight at Vegeta before him.
"Attack! This is your final chance!" Jiren said, maintaining an extremely arrogant posture.
Hearing this, Vegeta was not angry. Instead, he revealed an excited smile.
He assumed a battle stance, his blood-colored eyes radiating demonic charm staring at Jiren.
In contrast, Jiren completely ignored Vegeta's battle stance. The arrogant him no longer placed Vegeta in his eyes at all.
He simply stood there on the spot, without any stance. His expression was extremely calm, and his body remained relaxed at all times.
He looked full of openings, but in reality, he was flawless. Vegeta knew that if he attacked recklessly, he would suffer a great loss!
But continuing to remain in a deadlock like this was not a solution either. After thinking it over repeatedly, Vegeta still chose to take the initiative to attack.
Hiding or calmly watching for changes was not his battle style.
"Take this!" With a loud shout, Vegeta attacked with all his strength.
In less than 0.0001 seconds, he transformed into a beam of evil light and charged toward Jiren. His powerful offensive, with his entire body and mind poured into it, continuously bombarded Jiren's body.
Facing Vegeta's powerful offensive, Jiren responded calmly and easily. After only a few short exchanges, he completely saw through Vegeta's fighting style.
Finding an opening, Jiren seized the gap and swung out a heavy destructive punch with overwhelming force.
With an explosive sound of 'Bang!!!'
Vegeta defended in time and blocked this punch, but the terrifying force almost made him lose his footing.
One strike failed to defeat Vegeta, so Jiren launched several more attacks in succession.
'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!...'
Jiren's attacks were so direct, cruel, and ferocious.
The overwhelmingly domineering power and that extreme offensive method forced Vegeta to only defend passively.
Dozens of continuous attacks still failed to suppress Vegeta, which made the arrogant Jiren feel very displeased.
He decided to give Vegeta a ruthless one.
"Hmph~~!!!" Jiren snorted coldly, gathered power in his right leg, which flickered with scorching flames, and suddenly kicked out.
With an explosive sound of 'Bang!!!!'
Vegeta's body flew backward in response, kicked over a hundred meters away by Jiren's heavy, forceful kick.
But even though Jiren's attack was so domineering, it still could not completely break Vegeta's defense.
Vegeta blocked this strike.
"Exhilarating...!!" Feeling the pain in his body, Vegeta laughed excitedly.
An unprecedented pleasure surged through his whole body. With his fighting spirit soaring, he erupted again, transforming into a beam of evil light and charging toward Jiren.
Seeing this, Jiren gathered power in both fists and rapidly swung them through the air.
In an instant, countless piercing fist pressures tore through the air, like a dense net enveloping Vegeta.
This dense offensive looked flawless to others, but to Vegeta, it was not so.
Back in their earlier exchanges, he had recorded Jiren's attack method into his body. Without needing to think, his body reacted on its own, avoiding all the fist pressure attacks and rushing before Super Jiren.
Evil aura gathered in his fist, concentrating his power into a single point before fiercely striking Jiren's abdomen.
With a muffled sound of 'Boom!!!'
Jiren's indestructible aura barrier was forcibly broken, and Vegeta's fist embedded itself into his abdominal muscles.
Feeling the pain, Jiren's face revealed disbelief.
This scene was just like that scene in the original work!
Only now, both Vegeta and Jiren were stronger, and Vegeta was Super 5!
To Jiren, he had still underestimated Vegeta, and he also acknowledged that Vegeta was a combat genius.
Ignoring the pain in his abdomen, Jiren once again swung his fist to attack Vegeta. Who would have expected that Vegeta had already predicted it, using a spinning whip kick to deflect Jiren's arm.
"All your attacks have been seen through by this uncle. Next, you won't have such good luck!!" Vegeta smiled confidently, and his counterattack began.
With full firepower, the Prince's Battle Style was unleashed with all his strength. Vegeta threw his entire body and mind into offense, and a dense offensive swept over Jiren.
Facing this fierce offensive, Jiren was suppressed and forced back step by step. He could only defend passively, an unpleasant look appearing on his face.
He could feel that Vegeta's fists were becoming sharper, his strength was growing stronger, and both his speed and power were constantly rising in battle.
The pain brought by the collisions of their bodies, as well as this long-lost feeling of being suppressed, made Jiren become slightly interested.
He launched a counterattack, intending to suppress Vegeta once again.
His domineering and powerful offensive once again suppressed Vegeta.
"Haaaaaaaaah!!!!" Vegeta released a roar from his mouth, his aura surging wildly. Bloodline Power and evil aura perfectly fused together as he entered an explosive state.
Under the pressure brought by Jiren, Vegeta's combat ability continuously improved. The force and speed of his attacks kept increasing, and his battle method also sublimated even further along with the battle.
As Vegeta's power rose, the situation changed once again.
This time, Jiren was suppressed!
This scene entered the eyes of the spectators, making them feel their scalps go numb.
Clearly, there was such a huge gap in hard strength, yet he could still overturn the situation and defeat the strong with the weak.
Jiren's battle power should have been stronger, yet he was instead being suppressed by Vegeta, the weaker one.
What kind of monsters were Saiyans?!
Outside the battlefield, Toppo and Dyspo found it unbelievable to see Jiren being suppressed by Vegeta.
Although they knew that this degree of power was still far from Jiren's true ability, being able to fight Jiren to this extent was already enough to show Vegeta's strength.
"That guy from Universe 7 can actually fight Jiren to this extent?!" Dyspo said with lingering fear.
Thinking back to the scene where he had taken the initiative to provoke Vegeta earlier, Dyspo could not help breaking out in cold sweat.
Just as Vegeta had said, Jiren had saved him. Otherwise, he would probably have already been eliminated.
"Those guys from Universe 7 cannot be underestimated one by one. It's just that... with only this level of battle power, he is still far from threatening Jiren." Toppo's expression was calm. As the captain of the Pride Troopers, no one knew Jiren's terror better than him.
A battle of this level probably did not even count as a warm-up for Jiren, right?
...
At the same time, on Lin Chuan's side.
Through the ability granted by the system, all changes in Vegeta's strength were seen by Lin Chuan.
His battle power, which had only been just over 2,000 Gou before, had risen to 3,000 Gou in his battle with Jiren, and it was still advancing toward an even higher realm.
"Demonized Super Saiyan 5. This form truly cannot be underestimated. The pressure Jiren brings has promoted Vegeta's growth, and the true power of Demonized Super Saiyan 5 is also being released little by little." As a spectator, Lin Chuan had already seen through everything.
He had to praise Vegeta. He really was amazing. This Demonized Super Saiyan 5 had only just been reached, yet it already possessed a state enough to rival his Super Saiyan 5 bloodline peak.
Unfortunately, his mastery was still insufficient. Otherwise, with the true power of Demonized Super Saiyan 5, touching the eleventh dimension would not be a problem.
It depended on how far Vegeta could reach in his mastery of Demonized Super Saiyan 5 during his battle with Jiren.
"That guy Jiren seems to be hiding something very terrifying. This kind of extreme strength is not something ordinary training can achieve." What Lin Chuan cared about even more was Jiren.
Before the tournament had even begun, he had already known Jiren's strength, a little over a hundred Jian.
But now, it seemed that was not the case. He vaguely sensed that deep within Jiren's body, an extremely terrifying power was brewing. Once it erupted, it would exceed imagination.
He hoped Vegeta could force Jiren to bring out that power.
It would also let him see it for himself.
...
At this moment.
Zeno, seated upon the Supreme Throne, especially noticed Vegeta and Jiren.
"Jiren from Universe 11 and Vegeta from Universe 7, both of their strengths are so amazing. It's completely different from the battle between Goku and the God of Destruction just now." Stars sparkled in Zeno's eyes as he was drawn in by this thrilling battle.
Compared to the several world-shaking battles that had happened earlier, the clash of pure power between Vegeta and Jiren brought an even more astonishing visual impact.
This also made Zeno praise repeatedly.
The two guards beside Zeno had mysterious expressions. After looking at each other, they nodded.
They seemed to be transmitting some kind of information to each other, but exactly what it was was unknown.
...
Universe 11's spectator area.
"To be able to pressure Jiren step by step, this Vegeta does have some ability. But if it is only this level, then he is still far from being able to threaten Jiren." Supreme Kai Kai laughed mockingly.
In his view, the result of this battle had long since been decided. Vegeta's elimination was merely a matter of time.
"Jiren should be having quite a lot of fun right now. After all, that Saiyan called Vegeta does indeed have decent battle power, but that is all there is to it." God of Destruction Belmod said in a strange, mocking tone.
Belmod knew Jiren's power very well, and he also looked forward to Jiren bringing out his true ability to eliminate Vegeta while intimidating the contestants from the other universes.
"That being said, that Vegeta's power is still rising," Angel Marcarita noticed Vegeta's abnormality, placing one finger under her chin as if thinking.
The speed at which this power was increasing was too fast. It was still hard to say just how far he would grow.
...
The scene shifted to Universe 7's spectator area.
The combat ability Vegeta displayed exceeded everyone's expectations.
"Vegeta's Ki is still rising. He is using the battle with Jiren to deepen his mastery of Demonized Super Saiyan 5. This aura increase is like it has no end." Goku took a deep breath, gaining a new understanding of the terror of Demonized Super Saiyan 5.
A special feeling even arose in his heart. Vegeta's Demonized Super Saiyan 5, in a certain sense, was even more terrifying than Lin Chuan's Super Saiyan 5!
At the side, Beerus folded his arms, his expression solemn.
He could see more. The extreme power Jiren displayed made an ominous premonition grow in his heart.
Vegeta's combat ability in the Demonized · Super Saiyan 5 state was certainly terrifying, and his power was also continuously rising in battle, but with only this level, he still could not inflict substantial damage on Jiren.
However, Vegeta still had hidden power he had not brought out. What exactly would happen in this battle remained to be seen.
As an Angel, Whis quietly watched the battle without saying a word.
With his eyesight, he could naturally tell that Vegeta still had enormous room for improvement. The power of Demonized Super Saiyan 5 was rising rapidly in battle, but in this limited time, just what step could it reach?
Universe 11's Jiren was a ruthless character. Once he became serious, Vegeta would probably be blasted off instantly.
Aside from them, the Gods of Destruction and Angels from the other universes were also watching this second focal battle after the end of the battle between Goku and Jin.
Sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight had no downside for them.
Through the warriors of other universes fighting each other, they could gradually figure out those warriors' foundations and full strength.
Then finally discuss a battle plan to eliminate the opponent at the smallest cost.
In any case, these contestants were merely going through the motions. So what if they were powerful? Could they be stronger than all the Gods of Destruction?
All the gods had silently accepted one point in their hearts: whichever universe's warrior could remain until the end, that universe would be the strongest universe!
...
At this moment, the battle situation between Jiren and Vegeta also became increasingly deadlocked.
The powerful Vegeta handed both offense and defense over to his body's instincts, attacking recklessly while abandoning defense. From the look of it, he intended to suppress Jiren completely in one push.
Facing Vegeta's reckless, powerful offensive, Jiren's face was full of indifference. He appeared to be pressured step by step, but in reality, he had long since seen through all of Vegeta's attacks.
"You're finished." With words cold to the extreme, Jiren gathered power in his right arm and swung violently, sweeping a powerful strike toward Vegeta's face.
Facing this fierce attack, Vegeta had predicted it in advance. In a single thought, he used high-speed movement and descended behind Jiren.
"Hmph~!" Jiren, who had already expected it, swung his arm to attack Vegeta.
Unexpectedly, this happened to fall right into Vegeta's plan.
With another instant of high-speed movement, Vegeta dodged Jiren's heavy blow.
"What?!" His attack missed again, and a look of shock flashed through Jiren's eyes.
In the next second, he suddenly realized something and wanted to defend, but unfortunately, it was already too late.
