Chapter 791: Impervious to Myriad Arts

An ethereal, transparent film enveloped Zhou Yuanjue, and countless exquisite Powers roamed within it.

This was the Domain of the Earth Martial Dao!

At the same time, Bolaka’s attack arrived.

It was a spherical mass of viscous, dark green liquid, its surface uneven and bumpy, as if covered in pustules.

The abilities inherent in this Rune attack were corrosion and virus. It could powerfully dissolve Energy Shields and spread disease Runes that continuously absorbed an opponent’s Energy and restricted their abilities.

Anjina had fallen victim to a similar move before. Disease Runes had embedded themselves within her own, continuously devouring her power and hindering her Energy recovery. Like a plague clinging to her very bones, they had pushed her step by step toward disaster.

Faced with this unique attack, Zhou Yuanjue responded in the same way as before.

He twisted his waist, raised his arm, flattened his palm, and chopped!

SCHLICK!!

The hideous liquid sphere was split open by Zhou Yuanjue’s palm, but that was not the end of it.

The instant he touched the sphere, a multitude of dark green Rune Chains shot out from it, wrapping around his body from every direction.

This was the special effect concealed within the attack.

However, before these special Runes could even touch Zhou Yuanjue’s body, they seemed to freeze in mid-air, unable to move an inch.

Then, the Runes began to warp in mid-air. Like noodles, they were pulled and stretched, deforming violently before suddenly disintegrating and vanishing without a trace around Zhou Yuanjue.

‘He nullified the Runes’ harmful effects… just like that?!’

Anjina’s mouth fell open. Zhou Yuanjue hadn’t even seemed to lift a finger. ‘What kind of ability is that?’

Her mind raced until she finally managed to identify the ability Zhou Yuanjue was using.

‘But that ability… it’s incredibly difficult to obtain at the First layer Transformation Boundary, let alone for mere candidates. And this guy… has he already achieved it?’

“It’s more complete than the last time he used it. Or rather, this is already a complete Technique Domain.”

“He is indeed improving constantly. His rate of progress is terrifying. Just a moment ago, it was still just in its embryonic form.”

Evil Dragon Life said in a deep voice.

“Now, even if he were to face Qingling·Divine Intent, you wouldn’t know who would win or lose until they actually fought.”

The Sacred Lotus member narrowed his eyes slightly.

On the battlefield, Zhou Yuanjue’s movements were unchanged.

Each punch and kick was simple and direct.

Every incoming attack was scattered by his simple punches and kicks, and none of the terrifying, debilitating Runes attached to them had any effect.

The transparent film around him became increasingly distinct, its function growing more and more powerful.

“How is this possible… How can this be…”

“Useless? It’s all completely useless? What kind of ability is he even using?!”

The more he attacked, the fouler Bolaka’s expression became, and a look of utter disbelief filled his eyes.

He was known as the Ghost Seal, and his greatest strength was the variety of special Runes created by his five rotating Seal Beads. But now, all of those techniques were completely useless against this man.

He was a Divine Spirit in control of the elements, but his opponent seemed to exist completely outside the elemental Domain.

‘Impervious to all abilities.’

An intense sense of defeat and powerlessness, a feeling he had never experienced before, rose uncontrollably in his heart.

‘If the special Rune effects are useless, then I’ll just stop using them!!’

Bolaka gritted his teeth and instantly ceased all his special Rune attacks.

VMMMM!!

This time, the halo formed by the five combined Seal Beads no longer floated behind his head. Instead, under his control, it hovered before him.

A terrifying amount of Energy gathered as the halo before him compressed continuously, finally coalescing into a single, dense mass.

The light was blinding, and the surrounding space began to vibrate.

Facing the immense pressure of the gathered Energy, Zhou Yuanjue slowly opened his half-closed eyes, a trace of regret flashing within them.

“Is it over?”

He muttered to himself, looking like someone whose training had ended prematurely, leaving him wanting more.

He slowly raised his head to look at Bolaka, who was hovering in the air.

In that instant, he moved.

With a light step, his figure ascended, treading on the air itself as he charged rapidly toward the hovering Bolaka, seemingly fearless of the brilliant light condensing in his opponent’s hands.

“Bring it on!!”

Bolaka thrust his arms forward, a mad glint in his eyes. His body began to fracture from the immense, radiating Energy, and blood sprayed from the cracks.

Divine Light!!

VMMMM!!

The strongest five-seal attack condensed in his hands was unleashed, stripped of all secondary effects, leaving only a pure, explosive burst of Energy.

BOOM!!

The brilliant pillar of light engulfed Zhou Yuanjue’s figure.

But very soon, his figure reappeared.

He tore through the brilliant pillar of light from the inside. Within his Blood Jade-colored figure, twelve golden meridians circulated, forming a special seal.

Any damage the light pillar inflicted on Zhou Yuanjue was repaired in an instant. Fearless of any harm, he charged straight through.

True Vein Seal Technique, Immortal Seal!!

Under Bolaka’s horrified gaze, Zhou Yuanjue appeared right before him.

“Your advantage was never the sheer power of your Energy. To bet everything on this… it seems you’ve lost all reason.”

Zhou Yuanjue calmly gazed at him, his body emanating a terrifying pressure.

At this moment, in Bolaka’s eyes, this figure that was not particularly tall seemed to expand infinitely.

“How did you do it?”

Bolaka’s face was ashen. He couldn’t stop himself from asking what he knew was a ridiculous question.

But now, it was a question from the bottom of his heart.

In his entire journey, he had never felt like this, no matter the opponent.

The Elemental Race, famous throughout the East Thirteen Districts, had fallen to him without even forcing him to go all out.

His famous titles, the endless adulation, and his dazzling battle record had made him feel that he stood at the very top of this batch of candidates from the East Thirteen Districts.

But the man before him had shattered that perception.

A crushing defeat. A complete and utter rout.

All his pride and complacency had been brutally shattered. This was his first lesson upon entering the True Realm.

The True Realm was too vast. He was still too insignificant, not a figure of any real importance.

Hearing Bolaka’s heartfelt question, Zhou Yuanjue was more than willing to enlighten him.

He slowly raised his hands. The True Veins circulated within him, and as the pores all over his body opened and closed, powerful currents of air streamed out, creating a sharp whistling sound.

“Because I am devout enough.”

Zhou Yuanjue’s will echoed in Bolaka’s mind. Then, countless explosive booms resounded in his head as terrifying fist shadows rained down upon him.

Wan Jun!!

Amidst the countless fist shadows, Bolaka’s unimpressive body rapidly disintegrated.
