The moment Xue Ying just finished replying, the eyes of the other black-skinned teenager brightened as he shouted, “Senior Disciple Brother Dong Bo Xue Ying is really straightforward. Receive my move!” The moment he finished speaking, many green thunder snakes shot out from the surface of his body. These thunder were just like huge living snakes that rampantly swam across the void with terrifying destructive energy.
In an instant, there were more than a hundred big thunder snakes that came over.
Xue Ying stood at his original spot, holding onto a deep violet spear with his right hand. Unseen ripples started spreading out with him as the center, forming a vast spherical domain. As the unseen ripples spread out, they started warping turning his surroundings into something akin to a world within a lake that rippled and undulated.
Those big thunder snakes that swam appeared to have fallen into the web, suffering severe restrictions, resulting in their power being drastically reduced. These big thunder snakes had yet to reach the side of Xue Ying before all of them were destroyed.
“”Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering”!”
“This Dong Bo Xue Ying has such a formidable domain technique. He has actually utilized the “Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering” to such an extent that it actually destroyed the thunder snakes.”
All the spectating disciples were startled.
They were all too familiar with the absolute arts of the Great Void Heaven Temple. The “Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering” was a Primal Chaos ranked absolute art, and violet-robed disciples were all qualified to select them. There were too many cultivators who had trained in this! There were even many of this current generation of True God Rulers who had cultivated the “Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering”. Thus, they were able to determine the attainments of Xue Ying’s “Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering” had reached a level that they felt admirable about.
“The “9 Thunder Snake Swords” might be a final realm cosmos ranked absolute art, but it is a sword technique used for offense. Using it as a large-scale attack and sending out a horde of thunder snakes is comparatively weaker to its original form! Even though the “Shadowless Heaven’s Gathering” might be a primal chaos ranked absolute art, it is a purely domain-related absolute art. Thus, in this aspect of the domain, it is able to parry against those thunder snakes.”
“Bao Xiao hasn’t truly revealed his power! The moment he fully erupts, Dong Bo Xue Ying might still lose.”
“Mn, regardless of whether it is on experiences of accumulations, Dong Bo Xue Ying suffers greatly!”
“And it is even a wager battle! It’s an upper-graded Void God weapon!”
These disciples were all discussing among themselves.
Even though Xue Ying vaguely held the upper hand after they exchanged moves, the majority still thought that ‘Bao Xiao’ had a better chance because he did not specialize in domain-related arts anyway.
…
The large thunder snakes which Bao Xiao released had been worn down. He could not help but chuckle, “Senior Disciple Brother Dong Bo Xue Ying is indeed quite powerful.” The moment he finished speaking, his body turned into a dazzling violet thunder. This violet thunder rapidly arced through the void. He used a horrifying speed to charge over, causing the face of Xue Ying to change.
So fast!
He had seen many battles over the past half a year. There were quite a few golden-robed disciples who had battled too, but the speed of this Bao Xiao remained the fastest he had ever seen! He might have the power of a Voidwalker, but in terms of flying speed, Xue Ying him likely to be weaker by an entire level.
“Hong.” Xue Ying suddenly retreated. He was not in a rush to clash against the other party since this concerned a large bet!
He wanted to carefully determine where the baseline of the other party was.
In the sacred world, they could not teleport. Although Xue Ying might not be able to match his opponent in speed, his was able to rank in the top ten amongst all the True God disciples in terms of speed –that was an extremely fast speed. Furthermore, he had released countless ripples around him, forming a spherical ripple domain, while many blood silk strands began forming within,
The blood silk strands started to warp and weft every single area of the spherical domain.
Xue Ying had long reached an all new level in his ‘Slaughter Domain’ after spending so long in the Great Void Heaven Temple.
“The Dong Bo Xue Ying is really fast! I have cultivated the absolute art which Swordmaster created that specializes in speed, the “9 Thunder Snake Swords”, that allowed me to travel this fast. But why is his speed so fast too–just slightly slower than mine?” Bao Xiao was still astonished at the speed of Xue Ying. But closely following that, his expression changed since many blood silk strands appeared in the surrounding domain.
These blood silk strands were akin to the veins of a ripple domain, causing the restriction and corrosive power in entire ripple domain to surge. Furthermore, these blood silk strands were as destructive as the edges of swords.
In the Slaughter Domain, the speed of Bao Xiao had reduced too as if he was flying in an inescapable net.
“Damn, want to stop me?”
“Open for me!”
Bao Xiao originally had a smile on his face. But at this moment, he felt the threat. His expression could not help but become savage. There was a killing intent as sharp as blade forming in his eyes, “I must win this battle!”
“Hong!”
The black divine sword light in the hands of Bao Xiao suddenly grew.
“Si la~” with the divine sword in hand, Bao Xiao brought along a frightening sharpness as he tore through the Slaughter Domain towards Xue Ying.
“Come.” Xue Ying also went on to meet the incoming attack. Regardless of whether he wanted to save time by visiting the Palace Hall of Time to cultivate or to get precious cultivation materials, everything required Origin World Rocks! Therefore, he had to win this battle.
The violet spear body revolved and rolled out before its spearhead pierced straight at Bao Xiao.
“The Apocalyptic First Sword!” The expression of bao Xiao slightly changed, “He actually cultivated the Apocalyptic First Sword. This is getting troublesome.”
…
Seated at the highest, Swordmaster and Forefather Tian Yu were both watching this battle.
“Hahaha.” Forefather Tian Yu chuckled, “Swordmaster, you and that brat from the same hometown actually cultivated my 13 Apocalyptic Swords. And now, his opponent is using your 9 Thunder Snake Swords.”
“Forefather.” The white-haired Swordmaster looked at the battle below and casually mentioned, “You have left behind three cosmos ranked absolute arts that you’ve created in the Starting Cosmos. The cosmos ranked absolute arts which I created weren’t left in my hometown cosmos at all. How could this Dong Bo Xue Ying brat learn my absolute art if he could not even select it after the trial in my hometown cosmos?”
“Haha, no matter what, what he learned is my absolute art.” Forefather Tian Yu was relatively delighted.
The Swordmaster had created a total of four cosmos ranked absolute arts.
Of which three were sword techniques!
“Oh right, you have always been in closed-door cultivation. Are you confident now?” Forefather Tian Yu suddenly turned to Swordmaster. His eyes were filled with a strand of expectation.
“I am only 50% confident.” Swordmaster’s expression turned slightly solemn, “This matter is extremely important. If we aren’t careful, it’ll be a great war, and Seven Star Oceanic Sacred World might even be destroyed. Therefore, only when I am 100% confident… I still have to prepare myself well at that time.”
Forefather Tian Yu slowly nodded, “I’ve waited for this day for too long, so I am not in a rush. Let us wait since you don’t have a 100% certainty yet. There is already no hope for me since I can’t progress after cultivating for such a long period. It is different for you, as you have a greater hope than I do.”
The eyes of Swordmaster were filled with a strand of desire too. He then chuckled and turned back to the battle below, “Let’s not mention that anymore and enjoy the battle.”
“Mn, let’s enjoy the battle.” Forefather Tian Yu lowered his head and continued watching the battle.
…
“Dang dang dang~”
The weapons from the two parties clashed as fast as lightning. The black-skinned Junior Disciple Brother Bao Xiao had currently transformed completely into lightning, using his fastest speed to send sword after sword frantically. Despite that, Xue Ying could entirely parry against them by using both ‘Slaughter Domain’ and the Apocalyptic First Sword.
“Hou~” Bao Xiao was utterly enraged now. He howled furiously, before a golden eye split open right on his forehead. Frightening lightning arcs were present in this golden eye. A golden bolt of lightning was pulled out into the divine sword in his hand causing its power was rapidly increasing. This was the strongest technique he had as a golden-robed disciple.
“Ancient cultivator?”
Xue Ying was long prepared. The elites of the laws and profound mystery lineage would usually cultivate other systems to cover up for some of their weaknesses. Most could display a stronger power by cultivating the additional system! This Junior Disciple Brother Bao Xiao had once been a golden-robed disciple precisely due to him having he cultivated an ancient cultivation system which specialized most in controlling thunder.
The ancient cultivation had some very strong and some very weak methods. Some were mysterious and strange. These were all part of the cultivation systems in the most primitive Ancient Sacred World. During the point when one became a Deity, someone cultivating the laws and profound mysteries system would open a ‘Deity Sea’ before condensing the true deity heart. As for the ancient cultivation system, one would have to form a ‘true life core’ and fuse one’s soul into it. This true life core would usually be a specific organ on the body.
For instance, the eyes? Or the ears? Or the heart? Or the skin? Or the brain?
Different true life cores would allow their potential to be different. They would reveal all sorts of weird methods when they became Deities. And as they reached the True God Ruler realm, like Bao Xiao, he had a golden eye thunder right in his forehead. Even if it was a very crude move, it was sufficient to be an apex Ruler skill. The weaker Rulers would be killed directly from it! Furthermore, Junior Disciple Brother Bao Xiao had fused the power into the 9 Thunder Snake Swords, allowing it to become more terrifying.
“Hmph.” Facing the mad Bao Xiao, surging energy from within Xue Ying’s body moved onto the spear body. The power of the 20th level of Voidwalker was unleashed in its entirety!
