Although the Crystal Domain has gradually spread by word of mouth, due to Estir’s solo challenge on the Alliance’s headquarters, apart from Maomu City and Great Xia, other places are still a step behind on this matter.
At Maomu Academy, Ah Mu, the first to master the Crystal Domain, has beco the go-to person for many students seeking guidance. After all, the Crystal Domain is different from other tools; it can’t be used just by obtaining it. Without practice, even holding a Domain Crystal, one cannot use the Crystal Domain.
Fortunately, Feng Yuan and their teacher first noticed sothing amiss and had their Beast learn from Ah Mu how to activate the Crystal Domain before teaching other teachers, who in turn taught their own students. They also forbade others from disturbing Qi Chen and Ah Mu, thus avoiding a potential hassle.
Although, given Qi Chen’s personality, he might not care too much about it, his friend Feng Yuan might not be so indifferent.
While everyone was trying to familiarize themselves with the Crystal Domain, the first research report on the Crystal Domain by Maomu University was also successfully completed. Since Feng Yuan had initially provided important research tools, he received a copy of the research report before its public release.
"Hmm, indeed, many ultimate moves show variations under the Crystal Domain. But I didn’t expect that the group of spirit beasts corresponding to the Forest Domain and the adow Domain would be sowhat different. Hmm, the effect also seems different. I think you might prefer the adow Domain, right?"
Flipping through the report, Feng Yuan occasionally voiced his thoughts, and Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan, saying
"Not really, since it’s not the Floral Domain."
"The effect of the fragnted layers in the Spatial Domain can actually suppress rapid ultimate moves? That’s interesting."
When Feng Yuan saw a report on the Spatial Domain, he beca intrigued. He hadn’t expected that the Spatial Domain, which could prevent spatial movent-type ultimate moves, could also target rapid movent-type ultimate moves.
Or rather, the root of all this lies in the fragnted layers that appear after the Spatial Domain is opened. These fragnted layers collide and explode when pushed by spatial movent-type or rapid-type ultimate moves, interrupting the release of those moves.
Similarly, the variation of the spatial fluctuation ultimate move also exhibits an explosive effect due to the spatial fragnted layers.
As for the Temporal Field, it’s relatively simple. The Chaotic Temporal Flow is the root of those anomalies with unpredictable durations of effects. In terms of lethality, there isn’t much enhancent, but, according to the professors’ research, the Chaotic Temporal Flow can turn ultimate moves that require charging into instant-casts, and it’s not a matter of luck.
This alone is terrifying enough. After all, most charged ultimate moves are quite powerful. However, since the Crystal Domain is a field effect, Feng Yuan felt that normally, no one would open this, especially since spirit beasts of the Ti Series are particularly rare, making it unlikely to see instances in matches where powerful charged ultimate moves are unleashed widely.
The Stream Domain caught Feng Yuan’s attention because domains that belong to the water series are not very friendly to Xiao Ji. Of course, compared to the Deep Sea Domain, the Stream Domain only delineates a stream of energy, so the impact on Xiao Ji should be minimal.
Seeing Xiao Ji grooming its feathers, Feng Yuan said with so relief
"Thankfully, Xiao Ji has gradually overco its aversion to water; otherwise, there might be trouble."
Even if Xiao Ji could use the Nether Soil Domain to cover, if the opponent really wanted to suppress Xiao Ji by contesting the domain, it could still be quite troubleso.
"Hard to say. Although the chance of encountering a Deep Sea Domain is slim, if soone does activate it, it might provoke it."
Stopping its current grooming action, Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan and Veronia in confusion and chirped. It felt as if they were talking about it. Feng Yuan didn’t keep it in suspense and explained the matter, seeing Xiao Ji beca sowhat alard. Feng Yuan smiled and said,
"Don’t worry, if it doesn’t work, you can just use the Nether Soil Domain to cut it off."
"Domain Anchor? We haven’t discovered this ultimate move, but if it can fixate a domain, that would be troubleso indeed."
Noticing that the latter part of the content was not describing domain effects, Veronia looked in surprise and said, upon which Xiao Ji hurriedly ca over, worried.
Patting Xiao Ji’s head, Feng Yuan picked up the materials Veronia handed over, glanced through them, and said,
"I see, locking the current domain for a certain period. This indeed would be a bit difficult to counter."
"Theoretically, it prioritizes lower than our Divine Beasts’ exclusive domains, but ideally, it shouldn’t be used."
Veronia took a look at Xiao Ji and reminded it that the Domain Anchor is a special ultimate move. If it wasn’t for those professors accidentally discovering it, none of them, the Divine Beasts, would have known there was an ultimate move among spirit beasts that could temporarily fixate the current domain.
It’s precisely because of this that Veronia believes the Domain Anchor’s effective priority should be lower than their Divine Beasts’ exclusive domains. In other words, Veronia’s Domain of Mirror could forcefully replace the coverage of the domain even when the Domain Anchor is active.
This point is also speculated in the report, but due to lack of assistance from Divine Beasts, they couldn’t experint.
As for Veronia’s final warning, it was solely because if Xiao Ji did this, its Divine Beast identity would be exposed.
Even if Estir can arouse certain people’s greed, Veronia doesn’t think that Xiao Ji, which hasn’t even reached the Divine Beast Level, could safely avoid it.
Therefore, Veronia thinks the best way to protect Xiao Ji is to not let it expose its Divine Beast identity. Of course, for now, no one would suspect Xiao Ji to be a Divine Beast.
After all, even Estir is known to be of lesser strength due to special reasons, and Xiao Ji started off as a very common Eggshell Chicken. Normally, people wouldn’t think an Eggshell Chicken could beco a Divine Beast.
Seeing Xiao Ji didn’t understand, Veronia used telepathy to privately explain these things to it. Knowing the situation, the once-thought-solution to deal with the Domain Anchor and Deep Sea Domain combination made Xiao Ji instantly disappointed.
But it didn’t doubt Veronia’s words, as it knew about Estir’s situation, so it understood that Veronia said this for its sake.
"Sigh, no choice then. How about avoiding those Beast Tar duels? The academy assessnts won’t demand that much anyway."
With a shrug, Feng Yuan said nonchalantly. Even if wild spirit beasts have mastered the Domain Anchor, they might not use the Crystal Domain. After all, aside from other factors, water-based spirit beasts rarely have the ability to mine, and the Deep Sea Domain Crystals are primarily found in the ocean.
Once they’re at sea, whether they open the domain or not doesn’t seem to make much difference.
Hearing Feng Yuan say this, Xiao Ji felt uncomfortable, although Feng Yuan was never interested in Beast Tar competitions, that might be the only place where Xiao Ji could truly fight alongside Feng Yuan. As for the usual major events...
Sorry, in those scenarios, not only would Feng Yuan handle things personally, but even ordinary Beastmasters might not have the qualifications to intervene, not to ntion Veronia and others are around to help, so Feng Yuan naturally wouldn’t choose the troubleso way of letting weaker individuals handle issues.
With this thought, Xiao Ji looked at Veronia and chirped. Veronia was sowhat surprised and glanced at Xiao Ji, saying
"If you really want to train, Tamur should be able to help you. After all, my World of Mirror is a completely separate space, although it’s more suited for training, but... can you sense him?"
Veronia didn’t see any issue in helping Xiao Ji. After being with Feng Yuan for so long, it grew fond of Xiao Ji. However, given its understanding of Xiao Ji, to quickly overco its aversion to water, Xiao Ji would likely need to seek help from Tamur, as it couldn’t offer much assistance in this regard.
Looking between Xiao Ji and Veronia, Feng Yuan imdiately understood what they wanted to do. After so thought, Feng Yuan said
"If you really want to give it a try, let Tamur help you. Also, don’t be too hasty. Haste makes waste, and rushing could make things worse."
Xiao Ji’s aversion to water is a psychological issue, and Feng Yuan didn’t believe that rushing would solve it. Moreover, at the mont, Feng Yuan didn’t anticipate facing opponents who would use both the Deep Sea Domain and the Domain Anchor.
After all, Deep Sea Domain Crystals are not easily obtained.
