Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Gu Rong Breaks Through with Absolute Defense

As Su Ming's destruction domain solidified, he couldn't help but wonder what potential effects it might have once fully developed. Facing the bone dragon in front of him, Su Ming carefully calculated his next move, aiming for an attack powerful enough to break Gu Rong's defenses without injuring Ning Fengzhi.

With Ning Fengzhi's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda providing amplification, Gu Rong's power temporarily reached the level of a 96th-level spirit master. Su Ming decided to keep his attack around the level of 97 for a balanced challenge.

With a deep, focused voice, Su Ming declared, "Grandpa Gu, brace yourself. If you can't withstand this, or if you don't break through, Uncle Ning could be in danger!"

Hearing this, everyone present understood what was happening. They couldn't believe Ning Fengzhi had agreed to such a high-stakes demonstration.

"Susanoo's Double Blade Cross Slash!"

Boom! Su Ming guided Susanoo to swing its twin blades down on the bone dragon.

Feeling the ominous pressure of Su Ming's attack, Gu Rong sensed a genuine threat to his life. This wasn't just a demonstration—it was life or death!

"Damn! He's serious!" Gu Rong thought, remembering Su Ming's earlier claim about defeating Yu Yuanzhen in a single blow. Now he understood why that might be true. In a rush, Gu Rong raised several bone fortresses in front of him and Ning Fengzhi, but they shattered instantly upon contact with Susanoo's blades.

Shocked, Gu Rong realized that even his strongest defenses were crumbling with ease. Seeing the blades approaching Ning Fengzhi, he acted quickly, placing himself directly in front of him and focusing all his defenses on withstanding Su Ming's assault.

As his spirit power rapidly drained, Gu Rong shouted, "Su Ming! You're incredible, I admit it, but I can't keep up this defense. Stop now, or Fengzhi will get hurt!"

Su Ming's voice was icy as he replied, "Grandpa Gu, you're really lacking resolve. Think about Sword Grandpa—he's already at level 97, while you're still at 95. If you can't break through now, you might as well fall here with Uncle Ning!"

"Oh, and if you both die, Sword Grandpa won't be far behind. Then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan will be ripe for the Spirit Hall to swallow up!"

Su Ming realized Gu Rong didn't fully understand the urgency. He seemed to think this was just a routine sparring match where failure had no real consequence. But Su Ming was running out of time; Gu Rong had to reach level 96 now.

Once Gu Rong broke through, Su Ming planned to give them both a rare celestial herb to enhance their strengths even further. With their power growing, they'd be valuable allies for Spirit Hall. Then Su Ming could focus on training with his friends and leave the Spirit Hall establishment tasks in capable hands.

Su Ming's intense focus and aura shifted the mood of everyone observing. Seeing Su Ming's relentless intent, Bibi Dong watched intently, wondering if he was truly going all out.

Gu Rong, on the other hand, was incensed. "Su Ming! Were those promises just lies? If you go through with this, Rongrong will never forgive you!"

Holding the protective Heaven's Blessing that Su Ming had given him, Ning Fengzhi understood Su Ming's strategy and didn't intervene. Gu Rong needed this push—he'd lived too comfortably over the years.

Despite his rivalry with Sword Grandpa, Gu Rong had never once bested him in defense, always relying on Bone Dragon's spatial shifts to compete. This kind of leniency wouldn't cut it in a real confrontation.

Ignoring Gu Rong's words, Su Ming intensified his assault, further testing Gu Rong's limits. Cracks appeared on the surface of Gu Rong's massive bone dragon as it struggled to withstand Susanoo's force.

Gu Rong, desperate, poured every ounce of his spirit power into holding his defense. In that moment, Su Ming's past advice echoed in his mind:

"A true defender needs an indomitable spirit. Only with a strong heart can one cultivate an unbreakable resolve and summon the courage to stand firm."

This was absolute defense.

With a surge of enlightenment, Gu Rong's spirit power soared, reaching the tipping point of level 96. Understanding dawned, and his aura surged with renewed strength.

"Ha!" he roared. "Absolute Defense: Bone Dragon Domain!"

As Gu Rong unleashed his new domain, his defenses strengthened fivefold, drawing bone spurs from all directions to reinforce his guard against Su Ming's cross slash. The crowd felt the shift in Gu Rong's spirit power, and Rongrong cheered, "He did it! Grandpa Gu finally broke through!"

With his enhanced power concentrated into a singular defense, Gu Rong was now able to withstand Su Ming's attack, forcing Susanoo's blade to halt. Only by raising Susanoo's strength to levels 97 or 98 could Su Ming break through now.

Pleased with the outcome, Su Ming let his blades fade and retracted the Destruction Domain, his eyes returning to normal.

"Congratulations, Uncle Ning, Grandpa Gu. You did it!" Su Ming said with a warm smile.

Ning Fengzhi approached with a wide grin. "Su Ming, we owe you for that breakthrough. If not for your words just now, Gu Rong might never have realized his potential."

Only now did Gu Rong realize that Su Ming had intentionally provoked him.
