Chapter 571 - 564: Acknowledgment
The Cultivator race’s abilities were spiritual in nature, excelling at subjugating the hearts and minds of others.
This race possessed neither formidable physiques nor terrifying Attack Power, but their Mental Power was incomparably immense.
The Secret Skills they used were not offensive in nature, but rather Sealing Skills.
With their potent Spiritual Wills, they suppressed Demons and guarded the four corners of the world.
And the Three True Wondrous Realms was the apex of these Secret Sealing Skills—a power that could only be manifested after reaching King Level by borrowing the Power of Nature.
"Submit!!"
"Worship!!"
"Surrender!!"
Within the Three True Wondrous Realms, three colossal divine figures roared in unison. The sound waves amplified the countless chanting whispers to their absolute peak, and one by one, profound characters materialized and surged toward him.
Inside the Three True Wondrous Realms, an enemy’s Spirit and Magnetic Field would be permeated by the power of the countless chants, leading to complete spiritual suppression and the sealing of all their abilities.
However, Zhou Yuanjue, standing in its midst, showed no signs of being affected.
The countless profound characters tried to worm their way into his body, but Zhou Yuanjue’s body had naturally entered a magnetized state. Countless life imprints linked together across his skin like a great net, making it impossible for the profound characters to invade in the slightest.
He had leaped beyond the Three Realms, existing outside the Five Elements.
How could he possibly be affected by a Divine Soul Power of this level?
"Is that all?"
Zhou Yuanjue’s gaze fixed on a certain point, seemingly piercing through the entirety of the lifelike Three True Wondrous Realms to pinpoint the caster’s exact location.
He picked at his ear. Although the ability had no effect on him, he had to admit that the countless fly-like whispers were getting a little annoying.
’He’s completely unaffected... This is the Three True Wondrous Realms... The powerful Sealing Skill that sealed the Celestial Demon Ancestor, Tuo, was derived from this very Skill. An ordinary King Level being couldn’t possibly withstand it, yet this guy is completely fine. Not only that, he can even pierce through the barrier of the Three True Wondrous Realms and lock onto my position.’
Tun Na took a deep breath. He could feel a terrifying, almost imperceptible aura coiling around him, and he knew his opponent could break through at any moment.
The Cultivator race’s greatest reliance was their Sealing Skills. Now that they were completely ineffective, the outcome was self-evident.
"I concede."
Tun Na slowly withdrew his Divine Soul Power. The illusions around Zhou Yuanjue vanished, and his surroundings returned to normal.
"Impressive. To think the Cultivator race’s Three True Wondrous Realms had no effect on you at all. Your Spiritual Will must be incredibly resilient. In that case, let me see what your physical abilities are like!"
On the other side, Leosis of the Bloodthirsty Race took a sudden step forward, his body swelling violently.
BOOM!!
His figure rapidly expanded. The blood-red, fiery patterns on his skin merged together, turning his entire body a solid crimson.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
An exceptionally violent aura erupted from his body, sweeping over everything around him.
He stood nearly five meters tall, with muscles like those of a colossal beast, yet not a single trace of Divine Soul Power leaked from him.
"Kid, don’t hold back on my account. The ability of my race is this very flesh. We can channel all of our Magnetic Field Power and Divine Soul Power into our bodies to attain the world’s most formidable physique."
"In the past, my race’s rivals were the Demon Race commanded by Sa, the ’Lord of Hell,’ renowned for their chaos and violence. They possessed exceedingly tyrannical physical strength, and we are the ones who can dominate the Demon Race with our flesh and blood alone."
"So, show me your strongest Power!!"
Leosis said in a deep voice.
"A little interesting."
Looking at his opponent’s terrifying physique, a flicker of interest appeared in Zhou Yuanjue’s eyes. Before everyone’s watchful gaze, his own body began to undergo a massive transformation.
THUMP! THUMP!
His frame shot upward as his muscles charged with energy and expanded. His entire body swelled like an inflating balloon, looking utterly terrifying.
Divine Wings·Power Form!!
HUFF!! HUFF!!
Every breath he took whipped up gales around him. With the powerful intake and exhalation of his immense lung capacity, the onlookers actually began to feel a suffocating sensation, as if the oxygen was being depleted.
Although Leosis’s figure was massive, Zhou Yuanjue’s current size and presence were actually a whole size larger. Before him, Leosis looked like a little brother.
"Come on."
In this state, Zhou Yuanjue’s voice was like a great bell. The slightest utterance caused visible ripples in the surrounding air.
’This...’
Leosis, in his Blood Frenzy State, was momentarily stunned, seemingly shaken by the immense change in his opponent’s size and aura.
’It’s probably just for show... The physical ability of my Bloodthirsty Race is second to none.’
Leosis took a deep breath, let out a furious roar, and shot toward Zhou Yuanjue like a cannonball.
BOOM!!
Their fists collided. The next moment, Leosis felt himself soaring through the air before he was sent flying backward, slamming into the Green God Vine and creating a massive indentation. He looked like a piece of abstract art.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yuanjue’s body was also forced back five consecutive steps before he managed to neutralize the explosive Power from the impact.
"To think he’s this strong. The Bloodthirsty Race truly lives up to its reputation."
Zhou Yuanjue took a deep breath and spoke with a respectful expression.
’To be able to force me back five steps in my Power Form, the Spirit Guardians’ abilities are certainly commendable. If a few more powerhouses like Leosis were to besiege me, they might actually have a thirty to forty percent chance of winning. Their overall strength is on par with the Ancient True Kings, and they’ve only just broken through.’
"All that’s left is the Great Clan Elder. Will you honor me with a lesson?"
Zhou Yuanjue took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the last person, Yu Qiansui.
"There is no need."
Yu Qiansui sighed and shook his head, making no move to attack.
"Oh?"
A trace of confusion flickered in Zhou Yuanjue’s eyes.
"The strongest ability of my Moon Race is to draw a person’s Spirit and will into a True Dream Realm called the ’Glowing Moon Dream Realm.’ Within it, as the Master of the Dream, I can crush an enemy’s Magnetic Field and Spirit at will."
"However, I could tell from your earlier exchange that you have no soul. Or rather, everything about you has fused into one, becoming a new kind of power—one that is beyond the influence of the Moonlight Power."
"It seems we Spirit Guardians are destined to become a thing of the past."
"Our powers stem from the world’s grace. In truth, the very source of our strength was established by the world’s will to counter the invasion of the Celestial Demons. It has a distinct, specialized nature, even able to restrain and suppress the Celestial Demons. But against you, the limitations of our abilities are clear at a glance."
At this, Yu Qiansui sighed faintly and glanced toward a high platform to the side. There, an old Daoist with a white beard and hair was smiling at him.
"Elder White Dragon Divides Water’s judgment was correct. I must admit, compared to us, you are this world’s true hope."
