Chapter 2287 The Power of the Dome
"That small difference can be easily made up with Yuan energy." Aunt Zhu's eyes were full of mockery. "Old man, you've been holed up in your cave for too long. Don't you know that things have changed a lot outside?"
Contrary to its usual behavior, it did not pounce on its prey directly.
The Qixia Sect has many treasures; this man surnamed Chu must have more tricks up his sleeve.
Aunt Zhu saved all her brainpower and patience for the great battle.
To be honest, this fire ape is, after all, a ethereal spirit from an ancient immortal sect. Even if Aunt Zhu used her strongest spider web, it would be difficult to contain it. Although the heart-silk web woven with its heart's blood has the ability to ward off fire, nothing is absolute. It ultimately has a limit, and once exceeded, it will still be burned.
But with the addition of elemental energy, things would be completely different.
Cang Yan's Yuan Power was incredibly strong, directly increasing the strength of the spider web by a significant margin. Now, the Fire Ape wouldn't be able to break through it anytime soon.
Elder Chu was just a bit hot-tempered, but he wasn't stupid. He was secretly alarmed after thinking about what Aunt Zhu had said.
Using Yuan Power to bridge the gap to ascend to immortality? This doesn't match the Yuan Power he remembers.
Over a hundred years ago, among the small kingdoms annihilated by the Qixia Sect, the Julu Kingdom possessed considerable Yuan power, but it was still insignificant compared to the Qixia Sect's supernatural abilities. Although this strange power of Yuan power had existed for thousands of years, Elder Chu disdained it, for the difference between immortals and mortals was as vast as the heavens and the earth; what use could mere Yuan power possibly be?
However, Liu Qingdao had previously mentioned in his conversation with the illusory figure of Sect Leader Yuan that the laws of Yuan Power had changed and were no longer what they used to be. Even though Elder Chu didn't believe it, he still had some doubts in his heart, after all, Liu Qingdao was an immortal from the same era as him, and his knowledge and experience were both remarkable.
Now, the hairy spider in front of us says the same thing.
Could the changes in the laws of elemental power truly become a powerful weapon in the hands of the human nation?
Elder Chu muttered to himself, but his hands weren't idle. The most urgent matter wasn't fighting this giant spider to the death, but breaking through the encirclement to reunite with Sect Leader Yuan. After all, that was the main battlefield, and the sect leader needed their support.
Although the spider web was annoying, he still had a way to break through it.
The saying goes, "One force can overcome ten techniques," and now it's time to stop being unreasonable.
Elder Chu also grabbed a statue, squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it onto it, muttering a few words as he said, "A great wind rises, clearing a path for me!"
Aunt Zhu knew that most of the statues held by the Qixia Sect members were vessels for ethereal spirits, just as ghosts would dwell on Juluo wood. However, this statue was rather peculiar in appearance, neither object nor human, but rather carved into the shape of surging waves.
It couldn't help but ask, "Hey, is that...?"
"Yes!" replied the fire lizard-like immortal, "That's Qionglong! Be careful, don't stand directly in front of it."
Qixia Sect has two great treasures, one of which is Qionglong. However, it is not a legacy of Yuanshan, but a treasure that Qixia Sect itself created.
Aunt Zhu's twelve eyes were fixed on the statue in Elder Chu's hand. Her eyesight far surpassed that of humans, often allowing her to discover things invisible to them. At this moment, she noticed that the statue was emitting a faint steam, like water that had just been boiled, with a layer of mist on its surface.
This seemingly minor anomaly suddenly gave Aunt Zhu a sense of unease.
Danger!
It immediately jumped to the side.
The burrowing spider queen's leap was incredibly fast, but it could feel something brushing past its body, cold and sharp, even severing a few bristles from its leg.
Given the current strength of its body, even a divine weapon might not be able to break a hair after cutting it for half a day. Who would have thought that an unseen sneak attack would be so incredibly sharp!
After Aunt Zhu landed, there was another series of ejections.
Unable to see the object, it could only rely on instinct. Fortunately, once the bristles covering its body softened, they became extremely sensitive to air movement, capable of detecting even the slightest changes in airflow. It could immediately detect any unusual movement in the airflow from any direction.
But fighting like this is still too dangerous; the opponent is an immortal.
The soft skin under Jie Shui Zhenren's throat swelled up, as if brewing, and then suddenly spewed out a sky full of sparks.
These sparks, like those produced by the explosion of burning charcoal, were fine, small, and dense. They floated in mid-air as soon as they appeared, covering an area of fifty feet around them.
If a member of the Qixia sect accidentally comes into contact with a spark, they can easily get a blister. But their greatest function is not to harm people, but to serve as a marker.
The air rippled again. Aunt Zhu turned around and saw that among the countless sparks, a group of sparks moved, condensing into the shape of three or four spinning blades, which shot towards her.
Furthermore, these spinning blades can collide with each other and split into countless other blades, truly embodying a free and unrestrained style.
Without a pattern, it's impossible to figure out. Seeing them, Aunt Zhu felt incredibly lucky to have dodged them twice before.
This is not the shape of Mars, but a magical power that the opponent cannot see.
Master Jieshui used sparks to mark his opponent's moves.
Wind Blade!
Qionglong is an invisible ethereal spirit. Its original form was a wind spirit from the North Wind Plains. Later, when the Qixia Sect attacked Wind Demon Mountain, it injured the Great Wind Demon and incorporated a portion of the Great Wind Demon's power into it. As a result, it became incredibly powerful and was thus forged into Qionglong, the sect's treasure.
The power of wind is ever-changing, and the ethereal itself combines the characteristics of the real and the illusory, thus bringing the power of wind to its extreme.
Elder Chu didn't have many Xuan Crystals left and didn't want to summon Qionglong, since the Giant Spirit God was already a huge consumer of Xuan Crystals. But Aunt Zhu was pestering them too much, and now he just wanted to finish the battle quickly and get to Sect Leader Yuan's side as soon as possible.
Aunt Zhu and Master Jieshui worked together to lead Elder Chu and the others on two more laps.
They also had ways to deal with the dome; when there was really no way to avoid it, they would burrow underground.
Earth Escape!
No matter how fierce the dome was, it couldn't catch up to the ground due to the laws of the small world; it could only kick up a cloud of dust to vent its anger.
Those familiar with Aunt Zhu, such as He Lingchuan, would know that the Spider Queen was formidable in combat, but even more formidable was her ability to escape and break free. When Elder Chu and the others tried to leave, it would intercept them; when Elder Chu chased after it, it would turn and run away.
He has mastered the essence of He Lingchuan's tactics.
Elder Chu, enraged by the pursuit, grabbed the statue and began chanting incantations. Qionglong obeyed his command, completely lifting the true form from the statue and transforming its shape once more.
A strong wind immediately swept through the area.
This was an incredibly violent tornado. Every wisp of wind that made it up was a sharp blade of wind and frost. When Master Jieshui was not careful and moved too slowly, the tip of his tail was grazed and instantly severed!
It hissed in pain, but we had to hurry and get it off the ground.
The true power of the Dome is to cleave through the body of an immortal. Even at its peak, the Great Wind Demon on the Wind Demon Plains could not match the power of its wind blades.
If this tornado had actually caught him, even Master Jieshui wouldn't have lasted more than a quarter of an hour, and that would have been with the help of Yuan energy.
