Bab 236: Chapter 236: So Beautiful~
...
Three purple and one black, four Spirit rings!
He's only a Spirit Ancestor!
Yu Qi and Specter looked at the man before them, their eyes filled with disbelief.
A Spirit Master with such incredible strength, in the blink of an eye, he dealt with all his Gu corpses. Are you sure you're just a Spirit Ancestor? Specter was already in shock.
Although the strength of his Gu corpses was not as strong as when they were alive, they still possessed Spirit Ancestor-level power. How can a Spirit Ancestor slay six opponents of the same level in just a few seconds?
Even though he's dead, he still has some face, you know?
And what's the deal with those four Spirit rings? Three thousand years and one ten thousand years?
Although both of them had Spirit rings of the thousand-year and ten thousand-year level, it was outrageous for a Spirit Master with four rings. You don't even have one hundred-year Spirit ring? Are you cheating?
Both Yu Qi and Specter couldn't believe their eyes, but indeed, it was a configuration of three purple and one black Spirit ring.
Not only were the two of them stunned and amazed, their allies, Xu You and Niu Man, were also the same. Although they had known and seen Zeng Yi's Spirit rings before, witnessing it again left them shaken.
After all, the radiance of those three purple and one black Spirit rings was truly awe-inspiring and incredible.
Despite being impressed, They weren't at the stage of retreating. Although Zeng Yi's Spirit rings were indeed dazzling and unbelievable, he was still just a Spirit Ancestor. It wasn't enough to make an enemy Spirit King and a Spirit Emperor-level expert fear.
In an instant, the two of them recovered from their astonishment and started gathering their Spirit power, launching an attack towards Zeng Yi.
Yu Qi's Spirit rings shone, and his Spirit power condensed into countless blood-red bats that flew towards Zeng Yi in a chaotic attack.
At the same time, Specter activated his Spirit skill and lightly tapped his Skeleton Scepter on the ground. A purple array expanded rapidly from his position, covering an area almost as large as two basketball courts.
The distance between the two parties wasn't too far, as they were all within the coverage of the array.
Although the opponent was only a Spirit Ancestor, Specter had already cast aside his previous underestimation. After all, being a Spirit Ancestor with three thousand-year Spirit rings and one ten thousand-year Spirit ring was enough for him to be cautious.
If he could kill such a genius, it would bring him immense satisfaction.
Specter went all out, not sparing his own Spirit Emperor-level Spirit power, releasing consecutive Spirit skills.
In an instant, Zeng Yi felt his body halt as if his feet were stuck in mud. His speed significantly reduced due to Specter's deceleration-type Spirit skill.
A speed-reducing Spirit skill? That's just shameless!
Zeng Yi felt somewhat helpless. Spirit skills in the Douluo Continent were sometimes unreasonable and disturbing.
Speed was indeed his strongest area, relying on it to contend with Spirit Masters who far surpass his own strength, thereby defeating them. But if his speed was diminished, it would be like losing nearly half of his power.
However...
Zeng Yi's eyes gleamed coldly as he swung his Bamboo Cut after slashing down a few blood bats that approached him, and his Spirit skill was triggered once again.
The third Spirit skill: [Sword Domain].
After breaking through to become a Spirit Ancestor, the skill effect of Sword Domain had grown along with it. From its original ten-meter range, it had expanded to a twenty-meter range. Although not large, both Yu Qi and Specter happened to be within this range.
Sword Domain had the effect of suppressing the opponent, not only in speed but also in Spirit power.
Although his speed had been reduced, if he could also suppress the opponent's speed, wouldn't that neutralize the disadvantage?
It had to be said that Zeng Yi was a logical genius.
But the effect was indeed outstanding!
After releasing his third Spirit skill, a powerful aura surged from Zeng Yi's body, making the surrounding air dense and oppressive. Since Zeng Yi's second Spirit ring had reached a thousand-year level, the amplification effect of his Spirit skill, [Sword of Selflessness] had also improved. The initial 30% boost to all attributes had changed to a 50% boost. Additionally, with each advancement in his cultivation, the boost increased by 10%. It had become a growth-type skill.
As a Spirit Ancestor at his cultivation level, the effect of this skill when activated was incredibly satisfying. Even without the boost from Sword Domain, it already amplified his strength by 70%.
Although he no longer had the passive blessing [Ronin], this degree of amplification was already terrifying.
In the instant Zeng Yi erupted with formidable momentum, Specter was relatively unaffected, being a Spirit Emperor with a Spirit power level over twenty levels higher than Zeng Yi. The suppression effect of Sword Domain was negligible. However, Yu Qi was different. In just an instant, he felt immense pressure weighing on his shoulders, and his Spirit power, like being trapped in mud, became sluggish, affecting his speed as well.
Looking at the figure shaking in the wind, Yu Qi's face was filled with incredulity. How could a Spirit Ancestor like him possess an aura stronger than his, a Spirit King?
But he didn't know that Zeng Yi was a Spirit Ancestor who had revealed his utmost limits. In the Spirit Master world, there were many who walked on the path of extreme cultivation. For example, some Spirit Masters who focused solely on pure power could launch attacks that even newly anointed Title Douluo experts would hesitate to directly face.
However, Xu You and Niu Man were suffering. Being decelerated by Specter's Spirit skill and suppressed by Zeng Yi's Spirit skill, they were in utter misery. Xu You, being an Agility-type Spirit Master, had decent speed, but Niu Man, being a Defense-type Spirit Master, was unable to keep up. Under the influence of both Spirit skills, every step he took now was extremely difficult.
"Impossible! How can you, a Spirit Ancestor, be stronger than me!" Yu Qi angrily roared, blood-red light emitting from around his body, as if activating some kind of enhancing Spirit skill.
His fingers elongated into sharp claws, and a pair of bat wings sprouted from his back. His Spirit power surged, and with a stomp of his foot, the powerful force caused the ground beneath him to sink inwards. At the same time, Yu Qi's figure shot forward, countless energy blood bats surrounding his body as he moved with incredible speed, leaving behind a sinister trail of blood.
Whoosh—
A flash of a Sword traversed through the darkness.
Yu Qi's figure quickly leaped backward and landed on the ground, pushing himself back more than ten steps before barely coming to a stop.
Drip~
In the darkness, blood dripped onto the moist soil from Yu Qi's face. His previous anger disappeared, replaced by a sense of fear and apprehension.
His clothes had a gash across his chest, blood trickling down.
If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have died beneath that Sword.
Now, Yu Qi began to hesitate, wondering if picking a fight with Zeng Yi was the right decision after all.
Yes, he already wanted to retreat.
Countless blood bats flapped their wings in a panic around Yu Qi, mirroring his timid state of mind.
In the field, the gale continued to howl. Swift winds, carrying a sharp sword intent, blew against their faces like cutting Swords.
While Zeng Yi and Yu Qi engaged in combat, Specter didn't stop either, launching his own Spirit skill.
Hell's Specter Hand!
Initially intending to pursue and not give Yu Qi any chance to defend himself, Zeng Yi found both his feet grabbed by the ghastly white hands that emerged from underground.
Looking around, Zeng Yi discovered that the area he was in had countless white skeletal hands protruding, giving it a chilling atmosphere as if they were in hell.
How annoying!
Zeng Yi felt somewhat impatient, forcefully severing the grip of the skeletal hand entangling his legs, and immediately jumped away from this position.
"Skeleton Legion!"
Specter released his own Spirit skill, continuously summoning numerous white skeletons from the ground, including humanoid and beast-like skeletons, their eye sockets glowing with eerie green flames.
"Attack and tear them apart!" Specter ordered as nearly a hundred skeletal creatures besieged Zeng Yi, Xu You, and Niu Man.
While Zeng Yi's face began to show signs of impatience after deciphering the endless attacks of the Skeleton Legion, Yu Qi and Specter couldn't help but smile. In their eyes, Zeng Yi's behavior was tantamount to seeking death, as he had previously attempted to break through this defensive line but had to retreat.
However, they also understood that this was Zeng Yi's final struggle. Otherwise, they would be the lambs waiting to be slaughtered after the skeletal creatures drained their Spirit power.
In the moment of their joy, Yu Qi noticed something amiss.
"What is this?" Yu Qi extended his slender, pale hand and grasped a slowly falling leaf.
"What is this? Bamboo leaf?" Yu Qi was surprised as he noticed some silver patterns on the lush green leaf, giving it an attractive appearance.
But there were no bamboo trees around! How could there be bamboo leaves?
However, the next moment, something terrifying happened, causing their hearts to tremble.
The bamboo leaf in Yu Qi's hand transformed into particles of light, dissipating in the air. A splash of blood spurted from Yu Qi's cheek.
That bamboo leaf was condensed from Spirit skills!
When the two of them realized something was wrong, it was already too late. Countless bamboo leaves floated in the air around them.
Under the moonlight, those numerous bamboo leaves flickered with silver light, creating a beautiful scene.
[Bamboo Sonata: Leaf Waltz!]
Countless bamboo leaves condensed from sword intent and Spirit power began to flutter chaotically.
For a while, under the moonlight, countless frigid sword lights shone, sword energy radiated, and fleeting brilliance filled the air. The skeletal legion was instantly obliterated by Zeng Yi's fourth Spirit skill, as if crumbling to dust.
Even Yu Qi and Specter, who had used their Spirit power to resist, had their tattered clothes and bodies covered in bloodstains, looking extremely disheveled.
"Isn't this move beautiful?" A chilling voice echoed beside them, instantly plunging both of them into an icy abyss of endless coldness.
Whoosh—
In the moonlight, the sword light disappeared in an instant, immediately followed by a head and an arm being flung high in the air.
Accompanied by a breathtaking blood splatter, they blossomed under the moonlight.
