Chapter 383 You Have Two?!
Within the clouds, Juhi opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted by a violent whistling sound. Below him, William had flown into the air and opened his Domain of Wind, slicing through the clouds and breaking them into smaller pieces that were then scattered.
In mere moments, Juhi's disguise was gone, revealing a man in his thirties with brown hair and thin shoulders. His entire figure was shrouded in a light golden hue, which seemed to be some sort of Spirit Aura.
While Juhi was slightly surprised that William had found him so quickly, he shook off the matter and looked at William with an intrigued gaze, "What makes you so confident that you can handle me, little boy?"
Little boy? While my real age is barely 21, I'm 527 years old! What does he mean, little boy?
William ignored Juhi and turned on his Artifact Belt, greatly enhancing the effects of his Magic. Simultaneously, he opened the Domain of Fire and gathered an incredibly dense ball of Fire Mana in his palm and sent it at Juhi.
Sensing William's aura more distinctly than before, the Eternal Tribulation that had been dispersed temporarily returned with a flash, the sky darkening while Lightning Bolts formed in the sky to attack William.
"Ha! Two Domains? You might think that's something here, but you have much to learn. Allow me to teach you!" Juhi said as he opened both a Light and Fire Domain. He used the Light Domain to blind William temporarily, while the Domain of Fire clashed with William's own.
"As you can see, your Fire Domain can't possibly compare to... What?!" Juhi exclaimed in shock as William's Domain of Fire consumed Juhi's in an instant.
He channeled more Mana into the Spell, but even with a massive difference in Cultivation, Juhi could only cancel out William's Domain with his own, he couldn't beat it at all!
William still didn't care to communicate with Juhi. After taking another glance at Atticus' condition, William decided death wouldn't be enough for the Ascended Cultivator. He opened the Territory of Sealing immediately, a massive grey cloud of Mana changing into a giant palm that reached out and tried to grab hold of Juhi.
"A Territory! And of the Seal Element as well!" Juhi looked at the cloud of Mana in shock. William's previous weak presence had suddenly become overbearing, pressuring Juhi to dodge and defend himself from the Seal Territory.
Juhi expected his trip to the lower Realms to be simple. Descend, kill the Mythic Beast and take its heart, then return. Three easy steps. He might meet a bit of resistance, but what can ants an entire Realm below him do? They didn't have the protection of the higher Realms, their Spirit Auras couldn't compare!
Seeing a Territory, however, made Juhi feel nervous. A Territory implied that William's Element was at least SSR-Rank, meaning he had the ability to make up the difference in ranks by at least a Realm.
Ascension Realm combat power in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm was easy for a Cultivator with a Territory. Even if he didn't die, Juhi would likely waste a lot of time fighting William.
I paid for an hour. I can't let this mortal get in my way, or it'll be a wasted trip! Juhi thought as he controlled both the Light and Fire Elements at the same time to counter the Seal Element temporarily. A massive wall of Mana covering a range of fifty kilometers appeared, blinding William and blocking his view.
In doing so, Juhi's Fire Domain was suppressed by William's just moments later, but he achieved his goal. He rushed towards Atticus at high speed, trying to reach the Magical Beast before William recovered.
"What do you think you're doing?" William said as he appeared in front of Juhi. His arms were crossed and the immense amount of Space Mana surrounding his body caused a small amount of his aura to leak out despite the Stealth Talent.
Juhi tried to ignore William and continue towards Atticus, but he realized something was amiss. It wasn't William that moved, but him! Not only this, but the Tribulation Clouds that had just reappeared were dispersed.
That's the Punishment of Eternal Tribulations, but he dispersed it?! And I'm back in my original position in front of him! How is that possible? Unless...
He looked at William with a fearful expression, "The Territory of Space! You actually have two Territories!"
While the Territory of Space was usually well-known for trapping Cultivators inside and preventing escape, the natural properties of Space Mana could actually even disconnect the Heavens' connection with the lower Realms at a high enough level.
It could even temporarily suppress the effects of the Eternal Tribulation, though it would return the moment William closed his Space Territory.
Usually this wasn't achievable by a Cultivator that hadn't Ascended, but if one had X-Rank Space Magic and high enough Cultivation... it was possible!
William's Cultivation wasn't at the peak, but his Artifact Belt made up for the difference in strength. Combined with his Affinity, William's X-Rank Magic made him equal to and even above Juhi in some aspects!
Realizing that he was facing a one in a million years genius of the lower Realms, Juhi was no longer as confident as he was when he descended. If the boy survived long enough to Ascend and seeked him out in the future, wouldn't Juhi be screwed?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He has to die right now! Violeta, I'm going to have to renege on our agreement, but I'll compensate you for it. Juhi said in his mind.
Good luck with that. You better keep the Continents in one piece, I can't risk loosening the seals any more. A female voice responded in his mind with amusement. When she realized that Juhi's actions would leave a mess for her, her tone switched to annoyance. Explore stories at empire
Juhi nodded and unsealed his aura, releasing the full strength of his Cultivation. Spatial fissures formed all around him as he moved, and an Ascension Portal appeared overhead. Instead of pulling him upwards, a soft golden light covered the Ascension Portal, removing the gravitational pull and allowing Juhi to move freely.
"You shouldn't have shown so much. I can't let you live now." Juhi said as he released six Elements all at once.
Fire, Light, Lightning, Ice, Plant, and Poison. All six Elements opened their respective Domains and absorbed the ambient Mana of the environment. Rather than trying to suppress William's Domains, the six Elements merged into one singular fusion Spell that covered a radius of fifty kilometers.
"Sixfold Fusion Domain. Open!" Juhi shouted as a multitude of colors burst forth. Before William had a chance to open his own Domains, Juhi cast another Spell, forcing all six Domains to collapse at once and enter his body.
"Sixfold enhancement. Start!" Juhi's body grew to three times the previous size, while his aura skyrocketed. His Mana fluctuations were wild, but William couldn't sense any Spells forming.
Regardless, the time-slowing bonus effect from the Fitness Talent showed Juhi heading towards him at incredible speed. Even though his speed in William's perspective was slowed by 96 times, Juhi still arrived in front of William in the blink of an eye.
"Kyah!" Juhi threw an earth-shattering punch, breaking through the second, third, and even fourth layers of space.
