The Demon with Holy Radiance

But if he died, he would lose any chance of reviving.

The opportunity was right there, but his own life was what mattered most. He wasn’t a fool.

One-Eyed quickly teleported to the edge of the area, only to discover that it had been completely sealed off. The barrier precisely contained the spreading Power of Rules.

Beyond the world-sealing barrier stood colossal Great Buddha statues in eight directions, their presence imposing and severe.

Without a second thought, One-Eyed immediately channeled the power of his remnant soul, trying to shatter the barrier and escape.

He spun, transforming into a black shadow that shot toward the barrier. But a moment later, he slammed into it as if hitting a wall of solid steel and was sent flying backward.

A ripple spread rapidly across the barrier from the point of impact. It converged on the chains extending from all four directions before flowing through them and into Yang An’s body.

’What is this...?’

The dazed One-Eyed’s gaze sharpened. He instantly realized what Yang An’s Power of Rules was—it could absorb the power of others!

’No wonder he gave up all resistance, fearlessly letting those ghostly creatures attack him!’

At this thought, One-Eyed grew even more desperate. Without a moment’s hesitation, he charged the barrier again.

Now, he was the one trapped in a hopeless situation. He had no way of dealing with Yang An besides brute-forcing his way through the barrier.

But when he crashed into the barrier once more, he not only failed to break it but was flung back even farther.

And once again, he had contributed his own power for Yang An to absorb.

In the blink of an eye, the tables had turned.

BOOM—

Another explosive sound erupted, but all the force was silently channeled into the Buddhist Mantra surrounding Yang An. Even he felt crushed by the sheer pressure, overcome by an urgent need to release it all at once.

However, to be absolutely certain, Yang An charged into the endless horde of ghostly creatures once more.

About ten seconds later, he planted his feet firmly on the ground. Feeling the seemingly limitless power coursing through him, his eyes, hidden beneath the Buddhist Mantra, finally revealed a hint of catharsis.

"You had fun hitting me for so long, didn’t you? Now it’s my turn!"

Seal of Que Ling!!

This time, Yang An didn’t charge the ghostly creatures. Instead, he pressed his palms together, channeling all his accumulated power into his hands.

A formidable pressure suddenly erupted from his body. Within the sealed-off space, time itself seemed to slow to a crawl, and even the blowing wind became clearly visible.

In that moment of extreme slowness, Yang An unleashed all his power in a single punch!

There was no shockwave, no sonic boom. With just that one punch, the invisible force it unleashed caused the countless ghostly creatures before Yang An to rapidly disintegrate.

Anything that stood in its path, no matter what it was, was annihilated by this long-accumulated power.

The invisible impact didn’t dissipate until it finally struck the barrier thousands of meters away. At that moment, the entire world-sealing barrier shattered into pieces.

BOOM—

Only then did the world-shaking sound ring out, so powerful it distorted the surrounding space with its shockwave and kicked up a violent gale.

’It shattered!’

One-Eyed’s gaze shot to the shattered barrier, a look of elation in his eye. But in that same moment, he felt a sudden chill run down his spine.

The next moment, countless beams of Golden Radiance pierced through his body. One beam even shot through his massive single eye, exiting from the back of his skull.

A hand suddenly clamped around his neck. Then, cloaked in black light, he was subjected to Instant Teleportation, reappearing thousands of meters away at the edge of the area.

"Got you!"
