Chapter 818 - 811: Fighting Alone

Chapter 818: Chapter 811: Fighting Alone

When Long’Er charged straight at him, Zhou Yuanjue’s palm was already perfectly placed on his single horn.

A pull, a tug, and a guide.

Under the effect of the Technique Domain, Long’Er lost his balance. The circulation of his Energy deviated, causing his movements to fall completely under Zhou Yuanjue’s control.

"Under my Echo Domain, not only can he move freely, but his Technique Domain can even affect me in return?!" Long’Er thought.

A hint of surprise flashed in Long’Er’s eyes.

He knew that it wasn’t just his Technique Domain at play right now, but also the Red Spider’s abilities. Normally, even an existence above the Second layer Transformation Boundary would be severely affected. Just maintaining normal movement would be impressive, let alone using a Technique Domain to counterattack with such terrifying power. It instantly caused him to lose his balance and fall under his opponent’s control.

This meant that his opponent’s Energy Intensity and Technique mastery had reached an astonishing level.

"Is this really the strength of someone who just broke through the First layer Transformation Boundary?" Long’Er wondered.

Long’Er had survived in the Chaotic Paradise for over fifteen years and had seen his fair share of geniuses, but this was his first time witnessing such an exaggerated leap in strength.

As his opponent lost his balance, Zhou Yuanjue shifted slightly and stuck out his right foot, tripping Long’Er.

Long’Er’s terrifying momentum instantly backfired on himself. His entire body was launched into the air, flying diagonally upward as he completely lost all balance.

At the same time, as he spun in the air, the weak point at his soft underbelly was exposed to Zhou Yuanjue.

SCREECH SCREECH SCREECH!!

Terrifying air currents and Energy erupted from the pores of Zhou Yuanjue’s arms, producing sharp, explosive shrieks.

His Cunning Hands were raised, a terrifying attack on the verge of being unleashed.

However, there was no panic in Long’Er’s eyes. Instead of using his remaining mobility to defend, he assumed an offensive posture in mid-air.

Right at that moment.

CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK!!

Soft popping sounds echoed from all directions. The concealed sources of the red light rays suddenly surged. Grotesque masses of flesh and blood exploded in the air, forming massive webs that resembled neural networks or a certain type of spider silk, engulfing Zhou Yuanjue from all sides.

This was a physical attack, and the Energy within was incredibly condensed. Even Zhou Yuanjue’s Technique Domain could only slightly distort its trajectory, unable to completely neutralize it.

Unfortunately, it was an area-of-effect attack. With the red webs descending like an overwhelming canopy, simple distortion was not enough to defend against it.

SPLAT SPLAT!!

Countless red webs landed on him. As if they were alive, the webs rapidly tightened.

SHNK!!

Barbed spikes rapidly sprang up from the red webs, seemingly preparing to inject some sort of toxin into his body.

Zhou Yuanjue immediately clamped his pores shut, denying his opponent the chance. However, the red webs generated a tangible binding force, hindering his movements.

Meanwhile, Long’Er, who had been launched into the air by Zhou Yuanjue, recovered from the stagnation of their collision. He knew full well the terrifying capabilities of the Red Spider, so he hadn’t worried at all about being attacked. The Red Spider would never just stand by and watch.

Thus, his immediate offensive posture now yielded a miraculous effect.

In mid-air, he aimed his single horn downward. Energy erupted around him as his thick legs stomped fiercely against the empty air.

BOOM!!

A massive depression of Energy formed in the sky, and the blazing light from his horn eclipsed everything.

Chariot Charge!!

At this moment, Zhou Yuanjue’s body was bound by the red webs, making evasion impossible.

BOOM!!

A direct hit!!

Zhou Yuanjue’s body was instantly blasted into the magma, sending the surrounding molten rock surging upward like a tsunami.

SWISH!!

Subsequently, Long’Er’s body dashed out from the magma and landed off to the side.

"It seems that takes care of him. His strength was indeed great, far exceeding my expectations, but he was ultimately too green," Long’Er said in a deep voice.

"No, it’s not over yet." Fuya’s figure instantly descended from the valley above, landing beside Long’Er. Her charming eyes stared in the direction of the magma, a faint smile playing at the corners of her lips. "It seems we really do need to go all out together. What an interesting guy."

"Oh?" Hearing Fuya’s words, Long’Er raised a brow slightly. He knew the intensity of his attack and was certain his opponent had taken the blow head-on.

"He still has combat capability after that?" Long’Er thought.

BUBBLE BUBBLE!

Soon after, the magma in front of them began to roil. A figure suddenly burst forth from the molten rock, landing back on its surface.

The clothing over his chest bore a massive tear caused by Long’Er’s earlier attack. Yet, through the shredded fabric, his robust chest was completely intact and unscathed, covered by a peculiar, mark-like circuit.

True Vein Seal Technique, Immortal Seal.

With Zhou Yuanjue’s Physical Strength, he actually couldn’t have taken that last strike without injury; his entire chest had been blasted open with a gaping hole. However, for his current self, this was merely a minor wound that could be rapidly repaired.

"Completely unscathed? The Data did mention this guy has strong Life Force, right? But to think he could heal the kind of injury I inflicted in such a short time... What a troublesome guy," Long’Er thought.

"Two existences above the Second layer Transformation Boundary—one controlling and the other attacking heavily. Your mutual cooperation is indeed formidable," Zhou Yuanjue said softly.

"You should know that you can’t win. I have already laid down a Heaven and Earth Net in this area," Fuya said flatly, slowly raising her hands. "I come from the Beast Blood Clan of the Red Moon Civilization, inheriting the Bloodline of the True Beast, ’Mother of Crimson.’ Among True Beasts, the Mother of Crimson holds no advantage in speed, Power, or size. But if allowed to set up an ambush in advance, it can hunt prey far stronger than itself.

"Regrettably for you, this entire place is already filled with my traps."

HUMMM!!

The countless red rays of light in the surroundings grew thicker.

At the same time, a translucent membrane appeared around her body, enveloping the surrounding area. The influence of the red threads within it skyrocketed once again.

This time, it wasn’t just an Energy influence. These threads seemed to begin absorbing Zhou Yuanjue’s Energy on a massive scale.

This was a suppression born from the realm of her Lifebound True Skill, something that could not be completely counteracted.

"The more you struggle, the faster you will lose. Join us. Otherwise, we will keep killing you until you do—unless you plan to never leave the safe zone for the rest of your life," Fuya said coldly.

"Heh." Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Zhou Yuanjue’s lips.

"Before, it was just sparring after all. I had to worry whether a forceful outburst would accidentally kill them.

"Now, I finally don’t need to have such reservations."

BANG BANG!!

Zhou Yuanjue’s body erupted with a series of terrifying, explosive pops. The Twelve True Meridians in his body circulated madly, and the Energy stored in his digestive system was unleashed to its heart’s content.

His body expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

True Vein Seal Technique, Free Will!!
