Chapter 462 - 306: Crushing Momentum, Part 2

Chapter 462: Chapter 306: Crushing Momentum, Part 2

Even if the wave ahead looked to be only ten meters high, its power wouldn’t necessarily be weaker than a hundred-meter-tall one!

For all he knew, it contained terrifying, highly compressed Spiritual Energy!

Although the Water and Starlight Attributes didn’t have a direct counter relationship, the innate abilities of Kui Water did somewhat suppress Yin Yi’s starlight radiation.

But that wasn’t a problem.

"Yin Yi, Demon Spirit Possession! Change to Pure Wood!"

Since its Starlight Attribute was at a relative disadvantage, he would just have Yin Yi change its Attributes!

"Ling~"

Yin Yi’s small, sapling-like body swelled explosively as it faced the wave.

Surging Starlight burst from its body, forming a pillar of radiant white light that shot toward the sky. It pushed back the heavy waves constantly pressing against it, protecting Han Ning.

Then, two brilliant points of Starlight ignited in Yin Yi’s eyes.

It whipped out at the empty space before it!

ZZZZT~ ZZZZT~

BOOM!

A deafening Thunder Roar suddenly echoed across the dim sky.

A bolt of dark purple lightning that stretched from heaven to earth exploded in front of Yin Yi.

A towering demon butterfly, erupting with a Cyan Jade halo, possessing three pairs of translucent wings and sixteen pairs of compound eyes spinning like turbines, tore open a Subspace passage and appeared on the field.

The demon butterfly, wreathed in cyan light, met Yin Yi’s gaze in midair, and both let out a "Lingling" sound.

In the next instant, the bodies of the two similarly sized (Star) Demon Spirits merged.

BOOM!

Yin Yi’s searing Starlight instantly transformed into the unending Power of Life. Its deep-cyan Spiritual Energy swirled rapidly, forming a dense mass of twisting vines that absorbed all the encroaching Water Element from the surroundings.

A powerful Spiritual Pressure spread out. The surrounding waves were compressed and distorted, and under its force, the fine pebbles on the plaza began to shatter inch by inch.

’What terrifying Spiritual Pressure. It’s at least Upper Lord Level! This Han Ning is horrifying!’

Shui Yun’s hair whipped about wildly in the storm of Spiritual Energy. At this moment, all traces of indifference vanished from her face, replaced by profound apprehension.

She no longer hesitated. The blue markings on her cheeks began to flow like ripples on water.

In an instant, the Sunflower Water Elf, which had become a deep blue wave constantly crushing Yin Yi, also erupted with a shocking fluctuation of Spiritual Energy.

The color of the liquid on its surface shifted from deep blue to a bizarre, near-black. The formless Sunflower Water Elf transformed into black water chains that glinted with a dangerous light, wrapping layer by layer around the growing vines.

The dense vines and the Sunflower Water Chains wore each other down, and for a moment, it was impossible to tell who had the upper hand.

’This Spiritual Energy fluctuation... it is indeed Upper Lord Level, but... it hasn’t entered the Divine Will stage.’ Han Ning sensed the Spiritual Pressure spreading from the black Water Lotus and quickly came to a conclusion. ’Wait, weren’t we told not to use Spiritual Secret Techniques?’

The Power of an Upper Lord, combined with the special ability Shui Yun had unleashed, actually allowed the Sunflower Water Elf to erupt with might comparable to a newly comprehended Divine Will Model...

Han Ning felt the protective shield Yin Yi had placed before him growing weaker, but he remained completely unruffled. He calmly commanded, "Yin Yi, give our opponent a little shock of the Divine Will Level."

"Ling!"

Yin Yi let out a low cry and simply retracted its protective shield. The vines spreading through the air suddenly froze, then exploded into a sky full of deep-cyan points of light.

Immediately after, these points of light reassembled at the speed of thought, transforming into rapidly spinning, deep-cyan Rhombic Crystals covered in profound runes.

Each crystal radiated a terrifying fluctuation of Spiritual Energy. Even the surrounding air began to ripple.

The moment the sky filled with Rhombic Crystals, a tyrannical wave of Spiritual Energy swept across the entire arena. The Ripple Barrier placed around the perimeter shook violently, crushed into countless Spiritual Particles by the omnipresent pressure of Divine Will, and vanished with a boom.

In an instant, every living being present, whether Beast Master or Soul Beast, felt their bodies being suppressed by a heavy Power. The white, misty Illusion Realm that had filled Tingchao Pavilion dissipated into nothing.

"Divine Will. This Spiritual Pressure... is still not enough. It doesn’t match his Spiritual Level," a soft murmur echoed from within a dim room.

"Divine Will!"

Shui Yun clenched her jaw. Her slender figure was enveloped in an aqua blue light, and even her body began to turn illusory and indistinct.

The etched markings on her cheeks trembled violently, gradually showing signs of fading.

"This Han Ning’s Power is no small matter. To think he has a Soul Beast that has comprehended the Divine Intent Realm... Sister Shui Yun is about to release her Spiritual Energy seal."

Shui Jin’s brow furrowed.

’So young, yet he has a Divine Will Soul Beast with one foot in the Monarch Level. No wonder the Elder Council places such importance on him.’

’I can’t lose. I can’t lose.’

Shui Yun stared intently at Han Ning’s blurred figure in the distance. With a sudden shout, the flesh on her face melted away, replaced by a phantasm of light constructed from the Water Element.

"To be able to force me to undo my Spiritual Energy seal... you’re the strongest member of an Alien Race my age that I’ve ever met."

Shui Yun’s voice became ethereal and indistinct. Her hair, now formed from the Water Element, stood on end. She stared at Han Ning in the distance with eyes that had turned into watery vortexes and let out a bizarre laugh. "The game is over."

She raised her hands and clenched them in the empty air.

"Elemental Vacuum!"

WHOOSH~

The spinning Rhombic Crystals trembled violently. Before Han Ning’s astonished eyes, the surging, highly-compressed Wood Element rapidly dissipated.

"Ling?"

Yin Yi’s Wood Demonization form stumbled and fell out from among the Rhombic Crystals.

It stared blankly at the monstrous black waves surrounding them and instinctively shielded Han Ning beneath its body.

"Lingling!"

Yin Yi tried to seize back control of the elements. Under the pressure of the dark Water Element, the Rhombic Crystals spread before it began to show signs of trembling.

The Soul Technique, inscribed with a Divine Will Spiritual Model, was actually being dissolved bit by bit.

One had to understand, this was a Power that could absolutely crush a Lord.

’The elements are nullified? I can’t sense them anymore?’

Han Ning’s expression was one of utter astonishment. In an instant, he recalled the knowledge Teacher Hom had once imparted about the Witch Spirit Race.

’So this is the Witch Spirit Race’s unique ultimate technique, Elemental Vacuum...’

Elemental Vacuum meant that the Witch Spirit Race’s opponent lost control of the elements, but it didn’t mean the Witch Spirits themselves lost their own ability to control them.

Therefore, Shui Yun could still control the Sunflower Water Elf to attack Yin Yi!

"Yin Yi, don’t panic. This is a desperate, all-or-nothing tactic. She can’t keep it up for long. Besides, even if she seizes control of the elements, she still can’t disperse your Wood Element."

Seeing the dense, ink-black Water Element nearby, Han Ning calmed down instead.

Ultimately, there was a definite gap in power between Shui Yun’s Sunflower Water Elf and Yin Yi. She could only rely on this reckless, life-risking power-up to gamble for a chance at victory.

But she had clearly chosen the wrong opponent.

Han Ning gazed at Shui Yun’s illusory body from afar, a grin spreading across his face as he commanded, "Directly inscribe Cang Feng’s Spiritual Model. Hit her with something nasty."

"Ling?"

Hearing this, Yin Yi faltered for a moment, as if asking Han Ning for confirmation. ’Are you sure we should use that?’

"It’s fine. Someone’s watching over things. She won’t die."

"Ling!"

Receiving Han Ning’s confirmation, Yin Yi no longer hesitated. A faint glow flickered in its burning eyes.

The Rhombic Crystals, fixed in midair, began to rapidly dissolve again, their numbers dwindling.

"It’s working! The opponent looks like they can’t hold on!" Shui Jin’s face lit up with joy as he watched the rapidly vanishing Rhombic Crystals.

However... his grin hadn’t even fully formed.

A wave of Spiritual Pressure, even more tyrannical and terrifying than before, erupted from Yin Yi’s position.

The skyful of Rhombic Crystals rapidly shrank, condensing into a dozen sharp, long needles completely covered in golden Runes and flashing with a dazzling light.

A cyan-gold light flickered continuously. The mere sharpness radiating from them instantly dispersed the monstrous black water in the surroundings.

An eerie light flickered in Yin Yi’s eyes. Its Spiritual Power shot out like a sharp sword, aimed directly at Shui Yun’s body, and fired with ruthless force.

SWOOSH!

The dozen-odd long needles vanished in an instant.

Before the needles even arrived, their piercing aura was already upon her.
