Back in the arena everyone seed surprised by She Bao's actions, unable to understand how he managed to make it past the giants they all waited on the comntator to explain for them.
"Quite vicious, but at the sa ti, understandable," the comntator said as he was looking at the screen showing Shen Bao's advent.
"It is a very interesting Domain, I didn't think it would work though," Eccentric Long said.
"Neither do I, to trap a being at the Origin Shattering Realm requires an imnse soul power. Although the Giant race is still mostly a race that can only use their physical prowess here, they are still too hard to trap within a Domain. So, how did he manage to trap them?" Xiao Du said.
"I can take a wild guess, regardless of the strength of Du Shen's soul, he didn't confront the giants, but rather disrupted them," he said.
"I fail to see your reasoning," the comntator said.
"In other terms, usually a Domain gives one absolute control over a space. Making them claim it their own from the heavenly Dao, the heavens themselves fight back against it, that is why most Domains could only last for a short while. Not to ntion if there was a foe trapped inside it, they too can disrupt it and cause it to collapse.
Say my domain for example, I could summon endless swords to attack my enemies inside my domain, and they could do nothing but fend them off, however, if the enemy is strong enough they can fight back and thwart my control.
Since I'm attacking them and they can defend or retaliate, especially the giant race that have imnse power, they can simply destroy it with a single swing of their fists, but it wasn't the case here," Eccentric Long said.
He then took a breather as if rembering what happened and said, "The giant was swinging his fists and weapon awkwardly, instead of striking forward, he struck back, instead of moving forward he moved back. Any directional input he tried to use was reverted and reversed.
And that didn't happen to just him, even the few cultivators that managed to get into the do of Du Shen's domain were imdiately pulled back out, not rejected, but by their own feet as they tried to move forward, they moved back and exited the domain. Du Shen's domain isn't physical, but rather taphysical.
It is a domain that fools the mind and senses instead of assaulting them, confusing all four directional and causing the one trapped inside it to be completely bewildered, so if they wanted to go forward, they would for example need to move backward."
"I see," the comntator nodded.
"And that's not all, it seems that it is also affecting Qi circulation, usually to use a skill or spell one needs to move Qi in a specific order through their ridian for the proper rotation, however, inside Du Shen's domain even that is reversed causing one to have backlash.
The titan could easily destroy the do, however, it is unable to since it needs to first adjust itself to the new directional and reversal first, then apply their force, which gave Du Shen ample ti to bypass them and leave," Eccentric Long said.
"Quite an interesting Domain, if it were to work against even stronger cultivators, wouldn't that an that Du Shen is unkillable?" Eccentric Long said.
"It would, but it seems that Du Shen is rather restricted in his domain, the application takes ti, and it takes a while for it to deploy. aning that it can be escaped, also it requires imnse ntal power to manifest and keep it functional, which is not easy. So it cos with its risks and advantages," Eccentric Long explained.
"That has been educational. Still, why did Du Shen kill the giant there? He had no reason to." Xiao Du asked.
"I can answer that," the comntator said, "It is how a cultivator should act simply put. Yao Xu had been harboring ill intent and spoke badly against Du Shen without ever ascertaining his ability. And after that, he was discarded as one should when they go against the strong. Du Shen's act of killing the giant was just so they could approach the kill zone when it cos back alive.
He showed that he had more than enough firepower to kill the giants to everyone present, and also showed that he treated good will with good will, by saving the thousand cultivators that paid him and trusted him. And the ill will of Yao Xu was repaid with a level ten giant that would need an Origin Shattering Realm cultivator to bypass. Thus, killing multiple birds with one stone."
The comntator continued explaining more about the fights going on in other parts of the arena until he received a notice.
"Alright! It seems that the ti is up and all cultivators that have failed to finish the trial will be disqualified!" the comntator said.
But there weren't many who had been disqualified, since most of those that have failed had already died to the giants. And the few hundred cultivators that were too scared or unable to go beyond the line had just been forced out and pulled away form the trail.
"With this done, we're one trial away from finishing one of the major parts of the Strongest Under the Sun trials. What do you think of the trials so far?" the comntator asked Eccentric Long.
"What I think? Hmm, I could say that the first two trials of Frost and Fire were very interesting to asure the cultivator's stamina and prowess, though one cultivator was rather lazily moving about. The maze trial was a good attempt to showcase one's resourcefulness and ability to assess situations in unknown lands and find their way and path.
While the trial of the Floating Islands was to see who has an acute sense of discovery and ability to notice danger from the inconsistencies of the island. A lot of cultivators had failed in that trial that is for sure.
The Tower Trial was to reveal those who have intellect and ability to solve problems and the Trial of the Darkest Sun was to showcase those who can, regardless of situations find a way to survive even when pitted against powerful enemies that cannot be taken down," Eccentric Long resud it.
"Then could you take a guess on what the final trial could be?"
Eccentric Long thought for a mont and said, "I suppose there is only one aspect that hasn't been tested yet," he said.
