Chapter 813: Chapter 812: Total Domination! Ye Guxuan and Chu Nianci Are Completely Dumbfounded!
Refusing to believe her eyes, Chu Nianci gritted her teeth and switched from one Law Divine Domain to another.
Life Breath, Thunder, Frost, Rock and Soil, Jin Rui... She tried a total of nineteen variations, one after another. Without exception, none of them inflicted even the slightest damage on Gu Yuexi.
Chu Nianci was at her wit’s end, and the Divine Power within her body was nearly exhausted. She rested her hands on her knees, panting heavily as cold sweat covered her forehead.
"How... how could you possibly block all of my Law Divine Domains?" She stared in sheer shock at the completely unfazed Gu Yuexi opposite her, her voice trembling uncontrollably. "I don’t believe you could possibly possess nineteen Divine Artifacts corresponding to each Law!
"That is absolutely impossible!"
Even the core lineal disciples of a Hidden Clan couldn’t possibly carry nineteen Divine Artifacts specifically designed for Defense against different Laws! It was absurd on a whole new level!
Gu Yuexi didn’t answer her question; she simply and silently channeled the Destruction Law.
HUM—
The grayish-black Power of Destruction instantly surged forth, its concentration several times higher than the Destruction Divine Domain Chu Nianci had used earlier. In the blink of an eye, it enveloped Chu Nianci entirely.
Trapped within, Chu Nianci’s expression changed drastically. She was horrified to find that she couldn’t analyze Gu Yuexi’s Destruction Divine Domain at all, let alone mount a Defense or disperse it. This was ample proof that her Comprehension of the Destruction Law was vastly inferior to Gu Yuexi’s!
"I don’t believe it!
"I don’t believe it!
"I don’t believe it!"
Chu Nianci repeated herself three times. She desperately pushed her own Destruction Law, trying to fight back against Gu Yuexi. Yet, her efforts vanished like a stone dropped in the ocean, failing to stir even the slightest ripple. Instead, she was left suffocating under the crushing weight of Gu Yuexi’s Destruction Law.
Gu Yuexi didn’t waste any words. She directly withdrew the Destruction Divine Domain and summoned the Wind Divine Domain.
Although both involved sweeping gales, the Realm of their intent was worlds apart. Chu Nianci’s Wind Domain had been violently ostentatious, howling with a strong visual oppressiveness. In contrast, Gu Yuexi’s Wind Domain was incredibly quiet, devoid of even the sound of the wind. Yet, it felt like a silent cheetah lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce and deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
It was glaringly obvious who was superior. Without a doubt, Gu Yuexi’s Comprehension of the Law of Wind was more than just a notch higher than Chu Nianci’s.
Immediately after, Gu Yuexi successively released several of the Law Divine Domains Chu Nianci had just used. Rock and Soil, Frost, Thunder... Every single Law was more condensed and profound than Chu Nianci’s. Every single Law had reached a state of profound simplicity, returning to its natural essence. Without exception.
Ultimately, the result of their clash of Laws—Gu Yuexi versus Chu Nianci—was an absolute, all-around crushing defeat for the latter!
Chu Nianci stood dumbstruck, her mind completely short-circuiting. She finally understood why Gu Yuexi didn’t fear the suppression of her Law Divine Domain. The girl wasn’t relying on some Divine Artifact for protection at all. Rather, her Comprehension of the Laws had long reached a Realm that left Chu Nianci entirely in the dust.
But what Chu Nianci couldn’t comprehend even more was that Gu Yuexi had clearly just entered the Divinity Transformation Realm. Why was her Comprehension of the Laws so much stronger than her own? And it wasn’t just stronger in one aspect. An all-around crushing defeat across nineteen Laws—was this something a normal Cultivator could even achieve?
She had lived for over a hundred years, cultivating tirelessly to reach the Integration Realm Peak, priding herself on possessing a Law Talent that far exceeded her peers. Yet, against a Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivator, she couldn’t even endure a single Law Attack?
The immense blow left Chu Nianci rooted to the spot, her worldview shattered into a million pieces.
On the other side.
The battle between Chu Sheng and Ye Guxuan was also underway. On the surface, the two exchanged blows back and forth. But anyone with a discerning eye would notice that from start to finish, Chu Sheng never took Ye Guxuan seriously. Its gaze rarely lingered on Ye Guxuan. Most of the time, it kept glancing toward the battlefield of Gu Yuexi and Chu Nianci. In its eyes, there was a hint of worry.
Gu Yuexi had only just advanced to the Divinity Transformation Realm; her Realm wasn’t stable yet. Going up against Chu Nianci, who was at the Integration Realm Peak, would inevitably be somewhat tricky. However, based on Chu Sheng’s understanding of Gu Yuexi, if it really came down to a life-and-death struggle, Chu Nianci was absolutely not her match. It was just that if they fought to that extent, Gu Yuexi would inevitably get hurt. It was going to be somewhat troublesome regardless.
"What, worried about your master?" Ye Guxuan noticed Chu Sheng’s wandering gaze and curled his lips into a slight smirk. "Earlier, if you had just agreed to my terms and let Jiang Xinglan go, you and your master would have been perfectly fine.
"But you had to court death and insist on killing Jiang Xinglan, creating an irreconcilable enmity with us.
"Now, you can only watch helplessly as your master is killed by us, unable to do a thing.
"This feeling of regret and powerlessness... it’s quite unbearable, isn’t it?"
Ye Guxuan added one last remark, his tone dripping with heavy mockery. "Oh, right. Once your master dies, you’ll die right along with her.
"I won’t even need to waste my effort going out of my way to kill you."
Chu Sheng shot Ye Guxuan a glance, rolling its compound eyes upward in sheer disgust. "Another idiot."
"You..." Ye Guxuan’s face instantly sank in anger. "Damn Mosquito, keep putting on a brave face! I’ll see if you can still laugh after Gu Yuexi is dead!"
As he spoke, Ye Guxuan’s Attack suddenly sped up. He pushed his Divine Power to its absolute limit, causing the Law of Darkness to surge forth with ruthless strikes. He wished he could instantly slay Chu Sheng right then and there.
Yet, Chu Sheng maintained its unhurried demeanor, casually waving its front legs to fend off Ye Guxuan’s attacks. Its gaze still drifted toward Gu Yuexi from time to time.
Upon seeing Chu Nianci continuously deploying Law Divine Domains to fight Gu Yuexi, Chu Sheng suddenly burst into laughter. "Another idiot." It repeated the exact same words it had just said to Ye Guxuan. Only this time, it was clearly referring to Chu Nianci.
Ye Guxuan frowned, feeling a bit bewildered. Subconsciously, he also turned his head to look in the direction of Gu Yuexi and Chu Nianci.
Integration Realm Peak versus Divinity Transformation Realm First Layer. In order to end the battle quickly, Chu Nianci was using her Law Divine Domain to suppress her opponent. Wasn’t that standard procedure? Any Cultivator in Chu Nianci’s position would do the same. What was so funny about it?
But when he finally registered the scenes unfolding before him, Ye Guxuan was left just as utterly dumbfounded as Chu Nianci.
No matter which Law Divine Domain Chu Nianci used, Gu Yuexi could easily block it without even shifting her feet. At first, he shared Chu Nianci’s assumption, thinking Gu Yuexi possessed Divine Artifacts capable of resisting the Laws. But as he watched, he realized something wasn’t right. Who could possibly carry nineteen Divine Artifacts with them? And all of them being Divine Artifacts specifically geared toward Defense against different Powers of Law, no less!
Ye Guxuan suddenly recalled Chu Sheng’s phrase: "Another idiot." In an instant, as if struck by lightning, it dawned on him.
Gu Yuexi wasn’t relying on Divine Artifacts at all. Rather, her innate Comprehension of the Laws was vastly higher than Chu Nianci’s! That was why she could neutralize all the Law Attacks with such effortless grace.
Ye Guxuan opened his mouth, wanting to shout this conclusion to Chu Nianci. Yet, even he found the deduction utterly absurd. A Cultivator who had just entered the Divinity Transformation Realm possessing a Law Comprehension that far exceeded someone at the Integration Realm Peak? Who would ever believe such a thing! He simply couldn’t bring himself to say it!
Ye Guxuan had no choice but to redirect his gaze back to Chu Sheng. His face no longer held any trace of its former composure and contempt. "You... just who exactly are you people?!!"
