Chapter 113 This Child Cannot Be Lived
Zhuang Yu gazed at the power fluctuations emanating from the divine artifact, his eyes as firm as iron.
This power was indeed strong, even making him feel a little suffocated, but the stronger it was, the stronger his desire became.
He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy within his dantian surged forth like a rushing river.
He was determined to break through this barrier, no matter the cost!
The surrounding air seemed to sense Zhuang Yu's determination and began to fluctuate violently.
An invisible pressure emanated from him, spreading outwards, causing sand and stones to fly and making even the grass and trees seem like enemies.
Even Master Zixiao and Li Ming, who were far away, couldn't help but take a few steps back, their faces showing shock.
With a thought, Zhuang Yu produced an ancient-looking book in his hand.
He obtained this cultivation technique from a mysterious space; it is called the "Chaos Technique," and he has never practiced it to this day.
At this moment, he felt that there was a guiding force in the universe, and that this technique was prepared for him to break through his current predicament.
He opened the book "The Chaos Manual," and the obscure and difficult-to-understand words came into view, but they stirred up a storm in his heart.
A sudden realization dawned on him, and he seemed to instantly understand the profound meaning of this technique.
He closed his eyes and began circulating his spiritual energy according to the incantation of the cultivation technique.
The originally surging spiritual power instantly became powerful and solid, and a vast, ocean-like aura emanated from his body.
His aura was rising steadily, like a volcano about to erupt, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at him.
Master Zixiao was filled with shock and jealousy as he watched Zhuang Yu's transformation.
Just who is this kid?
How could there be such a terrifying skill?
He sensed an inexplicable threat, which strengthened his resolve to eliminate Zhuang Yu.
"This...how is this possible?" Master Zixiao muttered to himself, a greedy glint flashing in his eyes...
Master Zixiao's eyes were bloodshot, and the jealousy in his heart was like a wildfire, instantly consuming his last remaining rationality.
He couldn't tolerate a kid from humble beginnings displaying such amazing talent and potential in front of him.
What he found even more unacceptable was that this kid also possessed the powerful cultivation technique he had always dreamed of.
This stark contrast completely twisted his already arrogant heart into a ball of rage.
"Li Ming, this boy must not be allowed to live!" Master Zixiao shouted sharply, his voice like an icy blade in winter, carrying a chilling killing intent.
A flash of light appeared in his hand, and he summoned a crimson magic weapon—a halberd burning with raging flames.
The intense heat emanating from the halberd instantly distorted the surrounding air, as if it were about to incinerate everything.
Li Ming followed closely behind, a ferocious smile also appearing on his face.
He had long been jealous of Zhuang Yu and wished he could tear him to pieces.
He rapidly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, and a black vortex brimming with terrifying energy spun rapidly in his palm.
Within that vortex, it seemed as if countless vengeful ghosts were roaring, emanating a sinister aura.
"Die, kid!" Li Ming roared, forcefully pushing the black vortex in his hand. The vortex shot out like an arrow, tearing through the air with a sharp whistling sound, heading straight for Zhuang Yu.
At the same time, Master Zixiao's halberd cleaved through the sky, a crimson streak of flame, carrying an aura of annihilation, fiercely slashing down towards Zhuang Yu's body.
The intense heat caused the surrounding air to ignite, crackling and popping as if it were tearing space apart.
Despite the combined attack of two Nascent Soul stage experts, Zhuang Yu's eyes remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
He felt the overwhelming pressure coming at him, and a barely perceptible sneer curled at the corner of his mouth.
Instead of confronting it head-on, he subtly channeled the spiritual energy circulating within his body towards the artifact's restrictions.
Suddenly, the invisible barrier surrounding the artifact shone brightly, and dazzling runes began to flash, as if they had come to life.
Powerful forces surged forth from it, like a raging storm, and met the attacks of Master Zixiao and Li Ming head-on.
"boom!"
With a deafening roar, the fiery streak and the black vortex, upon contact with the restrictive power, were instantly shattered as if they had struck incomparably hard steel.
However, the artifact's restrictions remained completely unmoved, still radiating a mysterious and powerful aura.
Master Zixiao and Li Ming were stunned by this sudden turn of events. They never expected that Zhuang Yu could use the power of the divine artifact's restrictions to resist their attacks.
A tremendous wave of shock surged through them, their faces instantly turning grim. In their eyes, besides shock, there was also a hint of fear and disbelief.
As they stood there stunned, Zhuang Yu slowly raised his head, a strange smile playing on his lips. He murmured, "The show is just beginning..."
Seeing that Master Zixiao and Li Ming had revealed their weaknesses due to the backlash of the restrictive power, Zhuang Yu's sneer deepened.
The spiritual energy within his dantian erupted like a volcanic eruption, gathering in his palm to form a dazzling pillar of light.
The beam of light, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that tore through space, instantly broke through the two men's crumbling defenses and struck them directly in the chest.
With two muffled thuds, Master Zixiao and Li Ming were sent flying like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Their clothes were torn apart by the impact of spiritual energy, revealing charred marks, leaving them in a sorry state.
The surrounding cultivators gasped in astonishment at the sight. They couldn't believe that a cultivator who had just entered the Nascent Soul Realm could defeat two veteran Nascent Soul experts. Such strength was simply unbelievable.
Just as everyone was marveling at the divine artifact, a deep roar came from within its restrictions.
An even more powerful force than before swept in like a storm.
A blurry figure slowly emerged from the depths of the barrier. Its entire body shimmered with an eerie light, its specific appearance unclear, yet it exuded a suffocating pressure.
That is the guardian of the divine artifact's restrictions!
As soon as the guardian appeared, it roared like an ancient beast, and an invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire space, as if it would crush everything.
Without any unnecessary words, it launched a direct attack on Zhuang Yu. Beams of energy, filled with destructive power, streaked across the sky like lightning, heading straight for Zhuang Yu.
Zhuang Yu sensed the guardian's power, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
He dared not be careless, and with a swift movement, he transformed into a blur, weaving nimbly through the gaps in the energy beams.
He moved like a drifting catkin in the wind or a fish swimming in the water, each movement perfectly timed to avoid fatal attacks.
He skillfully evaded the guardians' pursuit by utilizing the surrounding environment and taking advantage of the terrain, while also searching for weaknesses in the restrictions.
The surrounding cultivators were dumbfounded; they had never seen such a spectacular battle.
Zhuang Yu's quick thinking and the guardian's powerful strength left them in awe.
They held their breath, their eyes fixed on the battlefield, afraid of missing any detail. They were amazed by Zhuang Yu's quick thinking and adaptability, but at the same time, they were also worried for him.
Just then, Zhuang Yu suddenly stopped dodging. His eyes were like torches as he stared intently at a tiny detail of the barrier guardian. A meaningful smile appeared on his lips.
He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy in his dantian began to circulate wildly, producing a series of booming sounds.
“Found it…” Zhuang Yu murmured softly.
Wang Yao watched Zhuang Yu nervously from the side, her hands tightly gripping the hem of her clothes.
Wang Yao's heart was pounding, and her palms were sweating.
She stared intently at Zhuang Yu, who was dodging and weaving among the energy beams, her breathing becoming rapid.
Each beam of light that grazed Zhuang Yu's side made her gasp.
Although she didn't understand the battles in the cultivation world, she knew that Zhuang Yu was in extreme danger at the moment.
"Zhuang Yu, you can do it! You can definitely do it!" Wang Yao could no longer contain her worry and shouted loudly.
Although her voice was not loud, it was full of sincere encouragement and trust, and it sounded particularly clear in the howling energy storm.
Zhuang Yu felt a warmth in his heart when he heard Wang Yao's voice.
A warm current flowed through his body, dispelling some of his weariness and strengthening his resolve to break through the restrictions.
He smiled slightly, revealing a confident expression, as if responding to Wang Yao's encouragement.
After some observation, Zhuang Yu finally found the weak point of the restriction—a rune that was shimmering with a faint light.
This rune is hidden among many complex runes, and it is difficult to find its existence without careful observation.
Zhuang Yu took a deep breath, mobilized all the spiritual power in his body, and concentrated it in his palm.
His palms radiated a dazzling light, like a miniature sun.
He slowly brought his palm close to the thin rune, preparing to deliver a powerful blow to shatter it.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A dazzling light burst forth from the depths of the artifact, and a phantom figure slowly emerged.
It was tall and radiated a sacred glow, like a god from the heavens, making people dare not look directly at it.
The moment that figure appeared, it released a powerful pressure that instantly enveloped the entire space.
The surrounding air seemed to have solidified, making it feel suffocating.
Even the attacks of the guardians of the barrier stopped at this moment, as if they had submitted to this powerful force.
"What do you intend to do?" The voice was deep and resonant, like a great bell, making everyone's eardrums buzz.
Zhuang Yu felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the mysterious figure that had suddenly appeared.
He knew that this was the spirit of the divine artifact.
He slowly withdrew his hand, his gaze warily fixed on the artifact spirit, and said in a deep voice, "I have no ill intentions; I merely wish to borrow the power of this divine artifact..."
The artifact spirit interrupted Zhuang Yu, its voice carrying a hint of authority: "How dare you mortals lay a finger on the power of a divine artifact?"
Zhuang Yu frowned slightly, an invisible pressure enveloping him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He knew that an even greater challenge was about to begin...
