"Urrg!" Wei Wuyin released a brutish grunt, feeling the elevation of his spiritual strength. The Spirit Units of every iota of his Spiritual Energies increased, connecting perfectly together, and producing a trendously terrifying spiritual pressure.
The change caused the expressions of the nearby Ascended drastically shift, their eyes widening as they noted the alarmingly skyrocketing spiritual aura that an Astral Core Realm cultivator was unleashing. Moreover, it didn't seem to be stopping at all!
"A Spiritualist?" An Ascended from the star-pupil race questioned with befuddlent in their eyes, uncertain of what he was seeing exactly. The Ascended was no slouch, his cultivation base exceeding Jing Jiu's female companion, even exceeding her in terms of density and purity in aura. Clearly, he was a long-lived, well-cultivated Demi-Mortal Lord.
He was currently facing two opponents in a three-way fight, clashing with their auras as they pressed each other, diverting a very small portion of their strength to observe the events nearby. However, their clash was sufficient to induce shockwaves that could obliterate almost all Astral Core Realm cultivators.
One of his opponent's was a gargantuan figure that towered both of his enemies with ease, standing at over three hundred and sixty feet, or roughly a hundred ters in height. His large physical body seed to act as its own Gravitational Central Mass, creating a unique gravitational force that attracted others to him into his own orbit.
Clearly, this titan race was unleashing the limits of his Bloodline Power, bringing forth the complete might of the titan race. The physical aura he was unleashing was horrifying, as if facing a large-sized planet hurtling towards you at all tis.
This was other than Battalion Commander Borus, the very sa Demi-Mortal Lord that Wei Wuyin had t when he first arrived. Clearly, he was deployed to this Battlefield as well. However, he was leading a different portion of his forces and wasn't close to Wei Wuyin's particular company.
The human was a grey-bearded old man dressed in scarlet-gold robes who carried a whisk that released gossar strings that whipped wildly about like a violent octopus. They were extrely thin and scarlet. Their auras were absolutely vicious and vigorous, very similar to the ambient aura of the Scarlet Solaris Mountain.
"Oh? The titanic oafs brought a secret Spiritualist here? I wonder when you found the ti away from your civil issues and declining birth rates," the old man smiled harmlessly, yet his words were a direct violation to the titan race's intelligence and ans. Despite his status as an Ascended Highlord, clearly he had no issue throwing shade.
The star-pupil race's Ascended Highlord frowned, his aura pressed with greater strength as his eyes seed to embody the essence of the stars. Most of it was focused on Battalion Commander Borus.
The old man laughed gleefully, seeming to have co to an agreent with the star-pupil race's Ascended without a single word or transmission. He diverted over 70% of his strings towards the titan. Each lash split fixed space and could slice through entire planets. When they t the skin of the enlarged titan, faint bruises were made, yet they were unable to penetrate skin.
Battalion Commander Borus's expression grew slightly unsightly. He was aware that they were preventing him from interfering in the slightest for fear of him bringing the currently hunted Spiritualist away at a cost. As for the others, they were all just genuine Ascended at the lowest level, the Soul of Mysticism. They wouldn't be able to stop a fully enraged Demi-Mortal Lord nor would they dare considering they'd still be attacked by two other opponents.
This interference wasn't just occurring at their battle, but the Soul of Mysticism soldiers were also acting to deliberately hinder all titan allies. So of the titans were even suffering from being ganged up on, yet fortunately, no one pushed it due to their wariness of the third opponent. If they showed an opening, two might die, not one.
None of them were allies.
Yet the human and star-pupiled race would have no issue with soone taking out a Spiritualist of their enemy, especially since the cost of doing so was drastic. But since they didn't have to shoulder such a hefty financial loss, who cares? They could just aid them indirectly.
While the Ascended in this area was thinking this, on another Battlefield not too far away, the humans were suffering catastrophic losses as the Demi-Lord for titans and the star-pupil race split instantly upon Jing Jiu's female companions departure, outright injuring or killing human Ascended soldiers. There was no one to protect them.
Yet there was no way the titans or star-pupil race would allow the humans to push out aid, and even Battalion Commander Borus realized this, focusing more of his explosive strikes towards the old man. While he had that harmless smile, the old man's eyes glinted with an uncomfortable light, wanting to urge that female to be swift!
While all this took a while to explain, these thoughts and actions occurred in the brief ti that Wei Wuyin released his spiritual aura.
At this mont, there were cyan-colored cracks erging on his grey-scaled body, from his forearms to his torso to his neck. Wei Wuyin held a painful scream in his throat, feeling as if every passing second was an internal explosion. If he kept this up, his fleshy container wouldn't be able to hold his spiritual strength!
Jing Jiu's female companion, nad Cai Liuyang, was watching Wei Wuyin push himself. She rely stood there, watching with seething hatred in her eyes. It was as if she wanted Wei Wuyin, who was a total ant in her eyes, to try as hard as he could yet experience the most brutal death. Her eyes betrayed her sadistic intentions.
Wei Wuyin wasn't surprised. He had learned everything about her from Jing Jiu's mories, including her habit of torturing those she hated, including allowing them to feel the utmost despair, hatred, regret, and helplessness just prior to their deaths. It was a habit that allowed a few enemies of Jing Jiu to escape.
Perhaps the Heavenly Daos deliberately fostered such a personality habit in her due to her vastly terrifying strength, wanting Jing Jiu to eliminate or overco these obstacles in his own stupendously fast rise. Regardless, it was sothing well within his calculations. If not, he would've staked everything on a single assault.
Cai Liuyang wasn't concerned that others would interfere, knowing the particulars of the Battlefield, unless the Demi-Mortal Lords that she had held down were to co, no one else would be free to halt her vengeance. Her beautiful figure waved her hand, causing Jing Jiu's corpse, which was seemingly healed by her, to move behind her as if it was laying on a bed.
From his rosy complexion and cleaned attire, one would think he was rely sleeping. This woman had, in her murderous pursuit, found the ti to perform this task! This clearly ant she hadn't given her all towards killing Wei Wuyin. Even in the face of his Spiritual Strength being pushed to untold levels for an Astral Core Realm cultivator, she remained entirely unaffected.
Wei Wuyin laughed wryly in his heart. Cai Liuyang was a Demi-Mortal Lord, with a genuine Demi-Mystic State, and a physique infused with Mystic Intent. She wasn't soone an Astral Core Realm cultivator could imagine killing or hurting, especially a asly Gravity Emission Phase cultivator.
Wei Wuyin wasn't delusional about the vast difference. It wasn't a matter of foundation, but aspects of her cultivation levels that made her invincible to the typical Astral Core Realm cultivator.
Fortunately, Wei Wuyin wasn't the typical Astral Core Realm cultivator, so he wasn't without options.
After reaching this point, Wei Wuyin deeply roared, his eyelids pushed upwards as a wave of gushing spiritual light exploded outwards and inundated hundreds of miles in its radiance. As he did, he felt as if his eyes were at the precipice of disintegration.
The Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity was deeply connected to his Spiritual Strength, being a Spiritual Cultivation thod and all, yet this also beca a core issue when his Spiritual Strength exceeded its limits. Unable to regulate itself, he had to deliberately impose restrictions on his spirits. Yet even after sealing three, a single one was enough to cause them to reach their limits.
The Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity elevated alongside his cultivation base, much like an Astral Core, the seals etched in his Sea of Consciousness, Pupils, and Mind's Eye had limits. However, unlike the Astral Core, these limits weren't affected by the quality of his energies. It just had hard limits.
However, who would've thought he would touch this limit? He didn't even know it existed before! Unfortunately, ignorance was not an excuse. Left with risking the shattering of the three seals, he faced this Ascended without a single ounce of fear in his heart.
He ford a hand-seal and executed a Spiritual Spell!
Cai Liuyang's perception was awashed with spiritual light, yet she remained entirely unaffected as she conjured a transparent barrier that prevented the light from reaching her. She narrowed her eyes and observed Wei Wuyin's actions.
Abruptly, all the spiritual light pouring out was instantly condensed in a split second, almost as fast as the movent of light itself. Cai Liuyang was taken aback by this rapid developnt.
A small orb of cyan-color erged before her, hovering almost harmlessly before her. Seeing this, she sneered. Her hand was like lightning as she reached out, the orb struggled as it tried to detonate, but she had already grasped it entirely. With her hand engulfed by mystic power, she completely controlled it.
Wei Wuyin's eye sockets were profusely leaking out, grey blood poured out like a river and he stumbled in mid-air, his Infinite Void Wings trembled slightly as he sank a few ters before stabilizing. His aura was bereft of spiritual strength. On his grey-scaled body were noticeable cracks where his spiritual strength was originally leaking, unable to heal.
"That's all?" Cai Liuyang asked. She squeezed lightly against the spiritual sphere, and it shattered into bits and pieces, scattering with the wind. While the spiritual strength was imposing and mighty, before an Ascended's might, it was only sand in their palms.
Wei Wuyin heaved out a series of heavy breaths, faintly smiling as he gazed at Cai Liuyang.
Cai Liuyang frowned slightly.
"I win."
Wei Wuyin took a commonly said word from Jing Jiu's life, a phrase Cai Liuyang had heard many tis and of the sa cadence, and spoke them. To her, his words invoked mories of what she had, of what she lost, and why she was currently seething with rage!
Yet her thoughts stilled.
SHIIING!
Wei Wuyin imdiately brought out Elent, his Nascent Saber Soul, with extrely practiced swiftness and drew upon all the power of his Divine Saber Astral Soul, every last freaking drop of its trendous World Sea's astral force was gathered into Elent. All of this, both his gathering of Spiritual Strength and saber force had been deliberately done while he was running for his life, in preparation for this single mont!
He sliced out vertically, releasing a one ter thin, yet thousands of kiloters long slash that tore apart the murky skies and sundered the earth beneath. He used all of his eighty-one centiter-sized World Sea of King, the full maximum of his current cultivation limits, without holding back a single thing! Even his Saber Heart Intent was activated, causing the space that the heaven-splitting pillar of saber light to absorb the ambient essence and energies and grow even sharper.
Cai Liuyang's mind, body, and soul felt affixed to a specific point in ti. As if all of her existence was unable to muster a single movent. All she could do was watch as Wei Wuyin brought out his saber, unleashing a heaven-reaching ray of saber force into a thin line that bore down upon her.
For the briefest of monts, fear welled within her heart as she regretted not killing Wei Wuyin imdiately! She regretted crushing the trap of a spiritual orb! She regretted letting Jing Jiu die while she fought in the skies!
The expressions of all the Ascended nearby changed.
Wei Wuyin smirked.
For a mont…
Then his smirk froze.
An icy jade-colored light erupted.
The pillar of saber light conjured by Wei Wuyin's strongest might at present, rushed forward, yet at that icy jade-colored light, its sky-splitting sharpness, seemingly unstoppable forward montum, and gushing waves of power froze!
It was halted!
A fair palm that released icy jade-colored light held onto the saber light as if it was nothing!!! The endless saber howls did little to push it forward, and the saber light distorted slightly as the fingers of that palm moved.
"…"
"You win? You don't deserve to say that!"
