System's Super Sect Chapter 975 917: Yun Liao's All-Out Battle
Previously on System's Super Sect...
"Does taking cover in the sky hold any purpose?" Wu Yan slowly tilted his head upwards, his face turning towards Yun Liao who was positioned in the sky.
Yun Liao was seen on a magic broom, suspended above the Stone Forest Battlefield, his gaze directed downwards at Wu Yan.
In the subsequent instant, not only did Wu Yan propel himself upwards, but his four companions also made the same leap simultaneously, soaring towards the heavens. For individuals possessing strength in the Mountain Suppression Realm, ascending a hundred meters was a trivial feat, thus Yun Liao's maneuver struck them as purely comical.
However, upon observing Yun Liao begin his incantation once more, they grasped that his intention was not evasion at all.
"Bone Spirit Cold Fire." With these four words on his lips, Yun Liao's magic wand erupted with an inexhaustible stream of white flames.
An immense chill instantly spread outwards.
The sky ablaze with flames directly enveloped Wu Yan and the five individuals who were accelerating towards Yun Liao, submerging them. Within the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, the five found their Mountain-Suppressing Armor beginning to melt, prompting an immediate alteration in their trajectory mid-air as they swiftly began their descent.
Upon touching down, the five couldn't help but exchange grave glances as they surveyed their partially compromised Mountain-Suppressing Armor.
"This fire carries a profound coldness!"
"Not a hint of warmth, it chills you to the very marrow!"
"If one were to describe its nature, it feels akin to an icy gale."
Wu Yan, his expression grim, stated, "This flame is far from ordinary; though frigid, it possesses the ability to instantly dissolve the Mountain-Suppressing Armor. At this pace, the armor will be entirely consumed within ten breaths. Our Spirit Bodies are unlikely to withstand such flames. You all must shield yourselves first!"
With the exception of Wu Yan, the remaining four promptly activated the Vein Array Shield, creating a protective dome around them to ward off the all-encompassing wave of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire. Wu Yan positioned himself behind the sanctuary of the Vein Array Shield, remaining inactive while directing his gaze, seemingly without purpose, towards the sky.
From above, Yun Liao's voice resonated, "Perhaps you should test my fire magic again with your Spirit Body."
Wu Yan responded with a resonant voice, "I, Wu Yan, had underestimated your sorcery, assuming you had not yet mastered techniques of this caliber. Since you have deployed a decisive move, I shall counter with my ultimate trump card."
Boom!
The Meridian Gate vibrated intensely.
The Four-Vortex Vortex Map materialized into existence.
A surge of potent golden vein qi coursed through the oppressive Bone Spirit Cold Fire, coalescing onto Wu Yan's form, imbuing him entirely with a golden hue. From a distance, he appeared as if sculpted from pure gold.
"Divine Will Absolute - Human Will!" Declaring this, Wu Yan forcefully stamped his foot, launching himself forward to engage the Bone Spirit Cold Fire directly.
Raising his arm, he unleashed a powerful punch into the heart of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, generating a peculiar aromatic essence. A golden, incandescent statue materialized behind Wu Yan, mirroring his actions with a forceful punch directed at the inferno.
Boom—
The pervasive Bone Spirit Cold Fire fragmented and dissipated under the impact of this singular strike, ceasing to exist.
Following this initial blow, Wu Yan delivered a series of rapid punches, each accompanied by the phantom of the furious golden statue behind him. With every impact, another segment of the devastating Bone Spirit Cold Fire dissolved into nothingness.
The once-overwhelming Bone Spirit Cold Fire was now demonstrably faltering, its advance halted, incapable of engulfing Wu Yan and his contingent.
...
Beyond the protective barrier.
Di Chen and Jin Busan, two esteemed Hall Masters observing the unfolding spectacle, could only click their tongues in sheer amazement.
Meanwhile, those within the Earth Unrestricted Middle and Lower Realms were not merely clicking their tongues but were also vocalizing their profound admiration!
Witnessing the stalemate, Di Chen could not withhold his commendation, stating, "Wu Yan, this young prodigy truly lives up to his title as the Last Disciple of the White-Eyed Guest. His mastery of the Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Skill, Divine Will Absolute, particularly its initial stance, Human Will, achieved at such a tender age, is astounding. His future potential may well rival that of the White-Eyed Guest himself."
Jin Busan interjected, "Do not solely focus your admiration on Wu Yan; turn your attention to Yun Liao. Surely you have something to remark upon regarding his displayed magic?"
Di Chen responded with a curt snort, "I have no words for the deceptive stratagems of the Immortal Sect!"
Jin Busan offered a soft chuckle, electing not to prolong the discussion.
Was he unaware of Di Chen's true sentiments?
Despite his outward displeasure, Di Chen's primary concern at this moment was this particular offensive magic. An attack method that bypasses the necessity of the Meridian Gate or Spirit Body reinforcement, requiring only a magic wand, had been employed by mere members of the Immortal Sect within the Heaven-Gazing Gorge.
The Divine Will Absolute technique wielded by Wu Yan, with each punch unleashing power equivalent to the Upper Realm of the Mountain Suppression stage – a level even formidable opponents in that tier would hesitate to endure – was being matched by Yun Liao's seemingly simple magic.
Di Chen, after observing for a while longer, couldn't help but let out a sigh beside Jin Busan. "Because of this magical item, the Domain Master will likely favor the Immortal Sect even more. Possessing something that can contend with an Upper Grade Earth Level Vein Skill means its existence is no less significant than an item with a Special Ability, like the Vortex Map."
"You've overlooked one crucial detail; the Immortal Sect is rumored to house a Celestial Unrestricted entity. This fact alone renders your pursuit of revenge impossible. Therefore, I strongly advise you to abandon this thought sooner rather than later, to avoid incurring further displeasure," Jin Busan promptly cautioned, hoping to prevent him from harboring a perpetual grudge.
A wry smile touched Di Chen's lips as he slowly nodded in agreement.
...
Outside the battle domain.
Millions of spectators witnessed the unfolding events, their cheers intensifying, growing louder than the thunderous clamor of a raging storm.
Many who observed the spectacle wore expressions of profound gravity.
Some onlookers could not contain their endless exclamations of awe.
Ren Ji, forcibly removed by those who sealed the heart with Extreme Heaven, watched the scene from a distance, his complexion steadily draining of color.
He understood with chilling certainty: The Extreme Force Sect was finished!
A resolute decision formed in Ren Ji's mind — he must escape!
He needed to leave the Red Domain immediately!
Anything less would surely spell his own demise!
With newfound resolve, Ren Ji promptly departed the area, ascending into the air.
