"Can you possibly resist almost all attributes?"
Feng Yuan noticed that the creature, Wheel of the Attributeless, showed no signs of panic on its face. Pointing with the black sickle in his hand at the Wheel of the Attributeless, clumps of black mist rose from the barren soil within the Underworld Domain. Suddenly, nurous white-robed phantoms surged out from the surrounding white mist, chanting sacred songs as they blocked the black mist.
Holy light burst forth from the white-robed phantoms as they detonated upon contact with the black mist. These lights attempted to disperse the Underworld Domain that shrouded the area, but unfortunately, this Underworld Domain was not created by Xiao Ji but was wielded through Feng Yuan’s power, thus their attempt failed.
Nonetheless, the Underworld Domain had undergone a slight change from before, seeming to carry an extra sense of vitality and liveliness.
With a slight curl of a smile, Feng Yuan looked at the Wheel of the Attributeless and said,
"Looks like no one’s directing you, huh~"
Saying this, Feng Yuan charged towards the Wheel of the Attributeless, swinging the long-handled sickle in his hand. Behind him, the black mist condensed into the specter of a Grim Reaper, which followed his movents in slashing towards the Wheel of the Attributeless.
A sacred crystalized barrier began to expand outward from the front of the Wheel of the Attributeless, yet this sacred barrier could not stop the Grim Reaper specter trailing behind Feng Yuan. The massive sickle cleaved down, shattering the seemingly solid crystalized barrier like fragile glass, hitting the target before the Wheel of the Attributeless could evade.
With just that blow, the Wheel of the Attributeless was split and smashed heavily onto the ground. Seeing this, Qi Chen couldn’t help but worry whether Feng Yuan might have been too heavy-handed and completely destroyed the Wheel of the Attributeless.
Fortunately, the Wheel of the Attributeless was not as fragile as he imagined. It slowly floated back into the air, seemingly enraged, as the surrounding spatial scenery kept shifting. So abstract white giants erged from the ever-changing space, their vast arms swinging forcefully at the Grim Reaper specter behind Feng Yuan.
With a light snort, Feng Yuan understood the intentions of the Wheel of the Attributeless. It was not dazed by his attack, unaware that the specter of the Grim Reaper behind him lacked corporeality. If he guessed correctly, the Wheel of the Attributeless was likely utilizing the special properties between the gaps.
Under the clash of rules, the gaps held the ability to replicate non-corporeal special ultimate moves, even amplifying that move, despite it being an ultimate move at the Divine Beast level.
"I can’t let you succeed so easily."
Muttering lowly to himself, Feng Yuan raised the sickle in his hand, eyeing the white giants. In the Underworld Domain, steles began to rise one by one. Agunas, upon seeing these steles, had a change of expression; these things looked sowhat familiar, as if seen before. Wait, could this not actually be the Underworld Domain?!
"Feng Yuan! What are you doing!"
Agunas shouted nervously, for if it guessed correctly, weren’t those steles from the Yin World! Feng Yuan was using the Underworld Domain Crystal to unfold the Yin World?!
"Relax, I know what I’m doing."
With a sly grin directed at Agunas, Feng Yuan waved the sickle in his hand. The Grim Reaper specter behind him lifted its sickle, taking on a chanting pose as if echoes of the Netherworld’s wandering spirits whispered softly in the ears of all present, causing Qi Chen to shiver involuntarily.
Without any flashy effects, amidst that peculiar sound, the white giant let out a wail, purple crystals sprouting from within its body. The sharp purple crystals seed to pierce through the life barrier of living beings, ignoring the conventional rule that ultimate moves cannot erge from within living beings, thus destroying the white giant from within.
Even the Wheel of the Attributeless wasn’t spared, though it desperately suppressed the alien energy that appeared within its body at so unknown ti through its powerful strength.
"This guy really is..."
Veronia shook its head with a sigh, mumbling to itself. Though it couldn’t identify exactly what thod Feng Yuan had employed, the distinct power reminded it of those two Guardian Gods from the Yin World.
"It’s over."
Pointing the tip of the sickle towards the ground, Feng Yuan looked at the Wheel of the Attributeless with a smile. The situation for the Wheel of the Attributeless wasn’t looking good. Even though it unceasingly employed its own power to suppress that alien energy, the power level Feng Yuan wielded was too high for the Wheel of the Attributeless to fully neutralize it.
Luckily, Feng Yuan imdiately dispelled the ultimate move he used, thus preventing the Wheel of the Attributeless from being severely injured. Nonetheless, it took a few minutes for the Wheel of the Attributeless to float back up again.
There was no choice; such ans of directly breaking through from within, not to ntion under normal circumstances, were uncommon even when battling a Divine Beast. After all, the life barrier inherent in living beings is not sothing to be trifled with. As long as this world rule exists, launching an ultimate attack directly from within a living being is not an easy feat.
"So, it’s already over?"
Qi Chen, astonished, looked at the surroundings returning to normal and couldn’t help but ask. At this mont, Feng Yuan had already dispelled that special Underworld Domain, and the Wheel of the Attributeless silently hovered in the air, watching Feng Yuan. Just as Feng Yuan and the Wheel locked eyes, a middle-aged man in an academy uniform stepped through a suddenly opened Space Gate, gazing at Feng Yuan and the others.
"Principal?"
Startled to recognize the newcor, Feng Yuan was not surprised, or rather, upon receiving news that soone passed the Earth Maze’s final checkpoint, he had already guessed it was likely Feng Yuan.
No wonder, since the Earth Maze’s final checkpoint, although designed with the intention for genius teams to clear, the strength of the Wheel of the Attributeless isn’t always stable. Moreover, with the ergence of the Data Domain, the power between the gaps re-strengthened, making the Wheel of the Attributeless’s strength even harder to gauge.
Although, due to the collaborative relationship, it adhered to the academy’s request of facing challengers with fixed strength, regrettably, much like how Veronia and its ilk, when suppressed to Good Level and battled against Ah Mu and the others, often still ended up victorious like Veronia, due to its inherent strength being so formidable that even suppressing its own strength couldn’t truly set it within that power range.
"Congratulations on successfully clearing the final checkpoint of the Earth Maze. According to the academy’s rules, you may receive certain rewards. Specifically, your horoom teacher will contact you with details."
"Um, Principal, about this..."
Qi Chen bashfully glanced at the academy principal. After all, in his perspective, their ability to clear the final checkpoint was entirely due to Feng Yuan. Without Feng Yuan, he didn’t really believe they could have defeated that formidable Wheel of the Attributeless.
Even though Feng Yuan hadn’t disclosed what exactly he used to instantaneously defeat the Wheel, Qi Chen wasn’t naïve. The technique of attacking from within a being’s body, likely even the strongest known in the Alliance couldn’t achieve.
This left Qi Chen feeling sowhat as though they had cheated, since Feng Yuan’s prowess seed sowhat disconnected from their group of students.
The principal noticed Qi Chen’s embarrassed deanor and seed to understand, bursting into hearty laughter.
"No need to be embarrassed. The challenge rules for the Earth Maze have always restricted it to current students. Although this ti, due to a minor unforeseen event, the requirents were slightly relaxed, this doesn’t an you’re exploiting a loophole in our academy’s rules."
"Unexpected incidents of all sorts are everywhere. As long as they’re rely isolated occurrences and don’t harm the majority’s interests, staying within the rules is logical. Even if... there happens to be a bit of a miracle isn’t an issue."
Explaining, the principal looked towards the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound beside Feng Yuan and said,
"Having this little one accompany you might be a good thing. Although I could waive the credit requirents for you, it likely holds little aning."
Nodding, Feng Yuan placed his hand on the head of the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound and said,
"That’s about right, though it does surprise that passing this place would even alarm the principal~"
"Speaking of alarm, this place was originally ant for selecting geniuses for the academy. After all... during that period, genius Beastmasters were seen as a swift way to elevate a nation’s power...a luxury."
Gazing at the Wheel of the Attributeless, the principal said,
"When the Earth Maze was being constructed, I was just a freshman not long into my studies. I didn’t expect that ti to fly by, and the number of teams that have actually passed is—"
"Ha, indeed, after all, we’re not a city like Shangjing. If there were real geniuses, why would they stay here?"
"I don’t think so. Excluding its dangers, in terms of constructing the Earth Maze, the then-principal must have been, at the very least, a Sacred Beast level Beastmaster, right?"
Feng Yuan said with a chuckle and a slight shake of his head. The principal had a look of realization as he acknowledged that perhaps the average person wouldn’t comprehend what the Earth Maze actually exhibited. However, Feng Yuan knew, not just because of his own capabilities, but with his relationship with the Divine Beasts, it wasn’t hard to grasp how Agunas and the others figured out the intricacies of the Earth Maze and relayed them to him.
