Chapter 3175 - A Battle Between Two Specters?
Chapter 3175 - A Battle Between Two Specters?
This arena was several times larger than most Fortuna Arenas, making it better suited for Tianming's Fiveway Blitzrun. The four lightning arrays constantly moved, shifting across the Fortuna Arena. Tianming flickered back and forth with terrifying speed like lightning.
Tianming shared similarities with specters, but had even more techniques at his disposal. They were the key to his daring to face Yumo Yuanni head-on. At the very least, Fiveway Blitzrun alone almost placed him in an invincible position. Even Yumo Yuanni’s powerful body was useless if he couldn't touch Tianming.
That was the miraculousness of the Primordial Chaos Beasts.
Meow Meow helped Tianming control his spatial positioning. After practicing together millions of times, man and cat had two minds but were connected in spirit.
Yumo Yuanni had initially thought that he could rely on his mighty power to brutalize Tianming. Unexpectedly, however, he still couldn't touch Tianming at all after several attacks. And it was all being witnessed by all the powerful figures of Myriadpath Valley. He let out a few ear-piercing shrieks, while his ferocious face became even more ferocious and the black and bloody mist churned more furiously.
"Are you a fly or mouse? All you do is buzz around!” Yumo Yuanni sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tianming suddenly appeared behind him. He sent out a Skyscorch Wrathlotus with a wave of his hand, flinging it at Yumo Yuanni. The less-than-an-inch lotus trembled and violently exploded.
Infernal flames exploded into a lotus. Yumo Yuanni’s mocking laugh was cut off halfway as he was sent hurtling straight into the arena wall. His back was smoking, but the pain was nothing compared to the intolerable fact that he had been suppressed by Tianming.
"This kid isn’t bad at all. He’s a tainted beastmaster, but he fights like a specter?"
"Not just a specter, he also has totems, wonders, and his lifebound beasts can help him unleash divine abilities. That makes his fighting style very comprehensive, and he can even fire off divine abilities at a faster rate than others."
"This kid's cultivation level is low now. If he becomes a foundationeer, or even a reverend or eminent, his combat power is sure to be astonishing."
"Why doesn't he show his cosmic charts so we can see what level he is?"
"It should be the eleven cosmic charts. With his talent, it's unlikely he has the ability to fight beyond his level. He couldn't withstand Yumo Yuanni's nine cosmic charts without eleven cosmic charts."
"Wait, when he first entered Myriadpath Valley ten years ago, wasn't he at the seventh cosmic chart or so?"
Most people were watching Tianming fight for the first time today, so there were few truly puzzled by his abilities, as many had just met him today. As the battle continued, though curious, the audience quickly focused back on the battlefield as Tianming's displayed combat abilities in the battle had captured their attention.
"It seems like a battle between two specters!"
Fist against fist! Brutal and explosive! The individual power the two could muster dazzled everyone.
"So this kid is a beastmaster, fights like a specter, and has totems! It's practically a combination of three systems!" That peculiar trait probably left the Three Exalted Houses speechless, as he partially belonged to each system but fully to none.
Regardless, anyone watching could see that Yumo Yuanni was getting anxious after attacking for a long time without success. As he ran, he smashed two black spheres into the ground, which suddenly transformed into a dark sea. The sea swept toward Tianming, hellish fiends roiling within as it filled the whole arena. This was his divine ability, Balesea of Hellfiends!
Yumo Yuanni had already used several divine abilities, but hadn't touched Tianming. Now, the Balesea of Hellfiends roared, engulfing the entire Fortuna Arena.
"Die!" Yumo Yuanni roared. His barbed tongue shot out, mixing into the Balesea of Hellfiends and rushing at Tianming. With his nine cosmic charts, he had a considerable advantage in cosmoforce and physical strength compared to Tianming.
But in terms of diversity of techniques, Tianming was far superior.
Just as the Balesea of Hellfiends was about to engulf Tianming, the grand lexicon wonder manifested. 999 characters combined into pairs and triples, displaying various rule-based powers as they sank into the Balesea of Hellfiends.
The Balesea suddenly dissolved, disintegrating in an instant.
Having finished its task, the grand lexicon wonder switched its target to Yumo Yuanni. Though each individual Xia word wasn’t strong on its own, they collectively trapped Yumo Yuanni. He felt like he was being mired in quicksand that limited his actions, flexibility, and explosiveness to an aggravating degree.
"He can even use a wonder!"
"The wonder looks pretty good. It’s at least infinitum class!"
"He's the most versatile ever! And he isn’t even a hundred years old. If his potential isn’t limited, then truly...."
The abilities Tianming displayed now far surpassed Yumo Yuanni, who was three times his age. He was outshining even the top talents of the Three Exalted Houses. No one dared to believe it!
That was also why Tianming didn't dare expose his true level, as it was too extraordinary. He wasn't sure what consequences it might bring. Would it attract recruitment? Or perhaps jealousy and destruction? It was hard to say!
He still needed a deeper relationship with House Suishen. Defending Suishen Zhao this time, at the very least, made Suishen Zhao feel deeply bonded with him.
"If I really want to leverage the power of House Suishen, I can’t be afraid to offend House Yumo!" Tianming knew that he had to not only win this battle today, but also show a certain something!
Totems!
Yumo Yuanni was already burning with rage after several of his attacks were nullified.
"You tainted mongrel, you really did evolve to hop around, eh?" Yumo Yuanni sneered, bearing the suppressive power of the wonder. His flesh crackled with power, causing the characters to tremble.
Fiendstar Downpour Art!
His black hair suddenly extended like tree branches, instantly splitting into thousands. The strands of hair were all like steel needles as sharp and tough as an artifact. More terrifyingly, Yumo Yuanni wielded them like long whips, executing a myriad of battle arts.
For a moment, it seemed like a dense storm of fiendish stars descended on Tianming, blocking all his escape routes. The millions of spikes were as densely packed as raindrops. At that moment, Yumo Yuanni looked like a hair demon, executing battle arts both ferociously and spectacularly. It elicited praise from the crowd.
"As expected of House Yumo's Minor Pathkeeper!"
This was already the second Minor Pathkeeper Tianming had faced, something other black ring disciples couldn't match.
At that moment, all the disciples and saints of Myriadpath Valley were praising Yumo Yuanni's prowess. However, Tianming's expression remained unchanged. He retreated to the edge of the Fortuna Arena, his eyes cold and his demeanor calm!
Under the gaze of the crowd, his decapath era godswords shot out from his ten bane-rings. The ten totems, all bearing different attributes and obviously very high-end sword totems, hovered in the sky. They were very clearly not fragmented totems.
"Providence" The decapath era godswords divided into countless small swords, swirling into a colorful sea of swords around him. The power of the four cardinal directions, heaven and earth, life and death, space and time, all gathered in this sea of swords!
It was Tianming’s first totemic calamity!
The sea of small swords behind him erupted, each sword precisely targeting a hair strand of Yumo Yuanni’s Fiendstar Downpour Art.
The grand sight of ten thousand swords whistling through the air wasn’t inferior to the thousands of black hair strands. And most importantly, it was a genuine and true ten totems, more authentic than the nine bane-rings and ten totems of House Suishen.
Many top experts in Myriadpath Valley were stunned at that moment.
"Isn't that a complete totem?"
"Yes! Though it has no simulacrum, it’s far from fragmented!"
"I get it, when his totems enter his sword, it’s actually his first simulacrum!”
