Chapter 762: Chapter 755: Reappearance

CRACK!!

A piercing crack echoed across the entire area. The powerful wind barrier Dorobaku had generated with his Runes, now covered in cracks like glass, suddenly shattered.

Dorobaku’s body froze mid-air from the violent tremor before the impact sent him flying backward.

This...

Everyone who witnessed this was left somewhat stunned.

If Zhou Yuanjue’s use of brute force to dispel the Wind Swamp had amazed the crowd, then this single strike from his True Vein Seal Technique had left them utterly shocked.

Everyone knew that for a being from an Elemental Clan, fighting with Runes and fighting without them were two completely different concepts.

The Wind Swamp was powerful, but it was just a move that didn’t use Runes. To put it bluntly, it was a casual attack.

But the defense just now was different. Dorobaku had used the Power of his Runes, which meant that for him, this move fell into the category of a serious technique.

And yet, the result was that Dorobaku’s defense was shattered by a single blow from Zhou Yuanjue, sending him flying. This was something that even Chishan, who had broken through the First layer Transformation Boundary, couldn’t achieve with his full strength.

This perhaps proved that Zhou Yuanjue truly had the strength to clash head-on with an Elemental Descendant like Dorobaku while at the same cultivation level.

It was simply unbelievable. Just who in the world was this person?!

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!!

While still flying backward, Dorobaku recovered from the brief paralysis caused by the violent tremor. He released the Power around him, and a gale erupted, with strong air currents quickly arresting his momentum. He regained his balance and floated in the sky.

Looking at his opponent, who stood his ground and didn’t press the advantage, a wide smile spread across Dorobaku’s face.

"That’s not all you have, is it? Is there still a need to hide your strength?"

Zhou Yuanjue looked at Dorobaku in the sky and spoke lightly.

"My apologies. I was in the wrong."

"To hold back against an opponent like you, to fight with the intention of testing you... it was indeed disrespectful of me."

"In return..."

Dorobaku said with a smile. He reached up, grabbed his black cloak, and flung it open.

His entire humanoid body, which seemed to be formed from condensed air, was revealed before everyone.

At the center of this body, a pale green, flesh-like structure seemingly made of Runes was pulsing faintly.

He raised his thumb and pressed it firmly against the Life Heart Core on his chest.

THUMP THUMP!!

The Life Heart Core throbbed violently, and strands of pale green Rune Chains suddenly extended out from within the Heart Core.

Amidst a rising gale, his form began to change. His humanoid body started to expand, and the countless Rune Chains spreading out from him linked together, seeming to form a suit of armor.

Gale winds and air condensed in his hands as Rune Chains climbed over them, forging two slender long knives.

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!!

A terrifying wave of Energy spread out, sweeping across the entire area.

For a moment, Dorobaku hovered in the air, surrounded by pillars of Hurricanes and dragon-like ribbons of wind, making him look like a Sovereign of the natural elements.

This was Dorobaku’s true, complete combat form. ℴ

The Elemental Armament, manifested by fully activating his Heart Core’s ability.

’Back then, when he fought me, he didn’t even use his real strength...’

Seeing this, Chishan’s face turned pale as if he’d been dealt a heavy blow. The realization was another massive strike against his confidence.

"Now, we can have a proper fight."

Beneath his Rune Armor, Dorobaku’s pale green eyes were filled with an intense pressure, as sharp as knives.

Zhou Yuanjue could clearly feel the immense pressure emanating from his opponent. The surrounding air felt as if it had turned into a thousand razors, constantly prodding his body.

At that very moment, a brilliant smile appeared on his lips, and his whole body began to tremble slightly, uncontrollably.

That feeling of Ultimate Resonance, experienced in a trance-like state, began to emerge, faint and elusive.

’It’s been so, so long since I’ve felt like this.’

An evenly matched opponent who, at the same cultivation level, could exert such intense pressure on him—one who could make him feel anticipation and desire for the final outcome.

It had been far too long since he’d felt this way.

’The True Realm... it really is a good place!’

BOOM!!

He shot forward, charging at the enemy before him.

Dorobaku’s figure, holding twin blades, also dove down.

At this moment, Chishan felt that the speed he had been so proud of was less than dog shit in front of these two.

In the blink of an eye, the two figures were upon each other.

Dorobaku put his strength into his twin blades and slashed down fiercely.

SCHRRIP!!

It was as if space itself was instantly torn open. The surrounding air and Hurricane winds were sucked dry, condensing into two enormous, pale green Blade Lights that slashed toward Zhou Yuanjue.

Wind Ring!!

Using the powerful Energy Manipulation Power of the Elemental Race, the wind Power was extremely compressed and made to move at high speed internally, generating unparalleled cutting force.

Energy, flesh, and even Spirit—it could cut through them all!!

When it came to attacks focused on points and lines, the Hurricane Clan was unquestionably the strongest among the Elemental Race!!

Energy flowed through the twelve meridians in Zhou Yuanjue’s body. He formed a Hand Seal with one hand, and in coordination with the surging Energy, instantly unleashed it.

BZZZT!!

True Vein Seal Technique, Broken Glaze Seal!!

He used the same move again, unleashing the same attack that had knocked Dorobaku back earlier.

A terrifying vibration spread through the space, which seemed to twist and crack along with it.

BOOM!!

The two attacks met in a brief stalemate. But this time, although the Broken Glaze Seal caused the surrounding air to ripple with cracks, it failed to show any sign of shattering the two terrifying Blade Lights.

SCHRRIP!!

In the end, the shattering glaze-like barrier created by the vibration was broken, and the two Blade Lights slashed toward his body.

Puppet Structure, disperse!!

In an instant, Zhou Yuanjue predicted the direction of the slashes and proactively disassembled parts of his body, causing the highly condensed attack to hit empty air. Then, the separated body parts reconnected, instantly restoring him.

The two Wind Blades passed through his body and finally struck the ground. The incredibly Solid True Land Continent was actually cut with two gashes half a meter deep. One could only imagine how terrifying such an attack was.

"You dodged it? An interesting ability. But what about this?"

Dorobaku’s expression was indifferent. He shot backward, putting some distance between himself and Zhou Yuanjue. At the same time, he released his twin blades, letting the Rune Long Knives hang in the air, spinning slowly.

He formed an unknown seal with his hands, and a terrifying Energy spread out.

The long knives hovering in the air instantly split. One became two, two became three, three became six...

Densely packed, they filled the air. To him, the long knives were merely condensed from his power. As long as he was willing to pay the price, he could replicate thousands upon thousands of them.
