Chapter 810 - 803: Dual

Chapter 810: Chapter 803: Dual

Their palms clashed—a collision completely devoid of any Technique, just the purest form of violent impact.

This was supposed to be Nirut’s strongest ability, but now, facing Zhou Yuanjue, he had fallen to a disadvantage.

Qingling, who was watching from the sidelines, and Anjina’s group in the distance saw Zhou Yuanjue knock back the Fierce Beast that was Nirut with a single, head-on palm strike. The ongoing murmurs abruptly ceased, plunging the scene into a faint silence.

Having been forced back more than a dozen steps, Nirut’s pupils shrank to pinpricks. What exactly was that power surging from Zhou Yuanjue a moment ago? Was it truly just pure violence? How could it compare to his own?

"ROAR!!" Nirut let out a low growl. Abandoning his stance, he fully transitioned into a beast-like attack form, unleashing the pure bestial nature within his heart.

At this moment, guided entirely by his bodily instincts, his explosive power was at its absolute peak.

"BOOM!!" Landing on all fours, he tore through the air, pouncing like a Fierce Beast.

A hint of excitement flashed in Zhou Yuanjue’s eyes. The Energy circulating within his body flowed ever more smoothly, allowing his various physical functions to perfectly coordinate with one another.

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!"

The two engaged in the most primal clash of power. Nirut launched attacks from all directions, while Zhou Yuanjue stood his ground like an immovable mountain, meeting every blow without taking a single step back.

Every single time, Nirut was the one sent flying backward. Moreover, amid the relentless collisions, Zhou Yuanjue’s body began to undergo a transformation.

The attractive force of the Life Units, converted by his puppet ability, took effect. As the clashes grew more intense, his body entered the Wishful Size state.

Unlike his previous Wishful Size state, this activation did not merely stretch the gaps between his cells. Instead, fueled by an abundant Energy supply, it instantaneously generated complete cellular structures to fill the voids.

In the original Wishful Size, Zhou Yuanjue was like an inflated balloon man—he looked enormous, and his capacity to bear Energy became terrifying, but his actual physical resistance to blunt-force trauma was weak. It was generally only suitable for short bursts of Energy-based techniques.

But now, he was like ever-growing steel. Despite his changing size, his Physical Strength suffered no reduction whatsoever.

However, this also meant that his body could no longer instantly expand to a height of nearly twenty meters as it had in the past. Still, reaching around ten meters was entirely possible.

Two meters! Three meters! Five meters!!

As his body expanded further with every collision, the massive amount of compressed Energy stored in his stomach was rapidly converted. Consequently, his already terrifying physical power grew increasingly stronger.

Nirut, whose physique had initially resembled a giant beast, gradually found his size completely dwarfed. It looked as though a towering giant was suppressing a rampaging lone wolf—or perhaps a husky.

He was swatted away by massive palms time and time again. After being sent flying dozens of times in a row, Nirut simply gave up. He lay sprawled on his back on the ground, all four limbs in the air. His bestial body gradually shrank back to its normal form, and the ninety-nine Black Abyss Secret Holes completely vanished from his skin.

"I’m not fighting anymore. I quit," he muttered to himself, his eyes glazed over. This surprisingly gave his originally ferocious, beast-like face an almost adorkable, dazed look.

From the looks of it, he had suffered quite a severe psychological blow and was showing signs of questioning his very existence.

In the distance, seeing his opponent in such a state, Zhou Yuanjue smiled faintly. His Wishful Size form abruptly contracted.

"HISS!!" As his size shrank, a large amount of gas-like substance was expelled from Zhou Yuanjue’s body. Upon closer inspection, one would realize that this mist was actually formed from tiny, white crystalline particles.

These were, in fact, crystallized byproducts created by the death of his own cells. Along with the contraction of his body, he would extract the majority of the Energy previously infused into those cells and recycle it back into his digestive system to restore his normal size.

Zhou Yuanjue emerged from the white mist, restored to his usual form. Nirut, who had been lying on the ground, also stood up. He stared at his opponent, completely at a loss for words. Like a defeated wolf king, he slowly trudged away from the center of the battlefield.

"Your turn."

Nirut approached Qingling and the others who were spectating on the sidelines. His voice snapped them out of their daze.

What exactly was going on? The Fierce Beast Nirut had actually been swatted around like a "pet" in a contest of pure physical violence? They opened their mouths but found themselves completely speechless.

"Could it be that this guy focused all the enhancements from his First layer Transformation Boundary entirely on his Energy Intensity?" they wondered.

"I’m up next." Bolaka coughed lightly and adjusted his collar.

With a gentle tap of his foot, the five Seal Beads behind him began to rotate. His short stature rose into the air with surprising elegance, gliding to the center of the arena until he floated right in front of Zhou Yuanjue.

He figured that he would find out exactly how strong this opponent was by testing him personally.

"Well then, Mr. Zhou, let us begin," Bolaka said to Zhou Yuanjue.

"HUM!!" He wasted no time. The five Seal Beads behind him spun rapidly, ultimately merging into one continuous, dazzling halo of light. Terrifying Energy fluctuations rippled through the surrounding area, making him look like one of the Divine Beings. Right from the start, he unleashed his strongest state—the Five Seal Form.

"Be careful. My attacks this time will be different from before."

Bolaka’s body ascended slightly. He raised his palms vertically, and a formidable torrent of Energy poured out.

"Endless Demon Realm!!"

Meteorites, Hurricanes, venom... Countless Rune attacks manifested around him, merging into an overwhelming barrage.

"The same attack as before?" Zhou Yuanjue was slightly surprised. The opponent had used this very move back at the Scales Battlefield. Now, aside from stronger Energy fluctuations, it didn’t seem to have any other distinct characteristics. Even the sequence of the Rune Abilities remained completely unchanged.

"Does he plan to fight me with the exact same attack?" Zhou Yuanjue pondered.

"This is not the same attack!" Bolaka thought, narrowing his eyes as he watched the myriad of Rune attacks hurtling toward Zhou Yuanjue.

Having transcended the First layer Transformation Boundary, he hadn’t merely experienced an increase in Energy. His Elemental Control Power had also grown tremendously, allowing him to pull off feats that were previously impossible.

Take his current Rune Abilities, for example. They seemed identical to the ones from their previous battle, but if Zhou Yuanjue were to let his guard down, he would fall straight into a trap.

Relying on his formidable Elemental Control Power, he had achieved an inconceivable maneuver: Rune Overlap.

By overlapping two distinct Rune Abilities, the outer layer served merely as a facade to deceive the enemy’s senses. When it truly detonated, the inner ability concealed within would strike as a lethal, unexpected trump card.

Last time, he had been defeated by Zhou Yuanjue’s fully formed Technique Domain, which had served as a massive source of inspiration for him. Therefore, over the past three months, he had further refined his attacks and Runes. The dual Rune System was a technique he had specifically developed to counter the Technique Domain!
