Three figures appeared at the entrance to the training room.
Zhou Yuanjue instantly recognized them.
The one who looked like a Bodhisattva with lowered eyes was Jiang Jiushan, the one who had fused with his environnt was Zhang Zhizhen, and the last was Ji Yunzhou of the Seven Spirits Sect.
Among the three, Jiang Jiushan had broken through to the Saint Awakening Realm at almost the sa ti as Zhou Yuanjue, but his injuries had been too severe, and he had been in a state of self-Nirvana ever since. He had only just awakened recently, with the help of six other Saint Awakening masters and Daoist Bailong, who had set up the Southern Dipper Tribulation Array.
As for Ji Yunzhou, Daoist Bailong’s powerful techniques had allowed him to reshape his Seven Spirits, bringing him back from the brink of death.
Of the three, Zhang Zhizhen had suffered the lightest injuries when he broke through to the Saint Awakening Realm and had long since recovered on his own. He had spent the ti since in seclusion, pondering and familiarizing himself with the mysteries of the Saint Awakening Realm.
Among the younger generation, Zhou Yuanjue was in the first group to break through to Saint Awakening, which made these three the second group.
One could say that the four people gathered here represented the pinnacle of the younger generation in the entire Donghua Martial Arts Realm. In a sense, they embodied the spirit of this magnificent era, and their every move was destined to have an imasurable impact on it.
They would be the heroes of this age.
"So it’s you guys."
Seeing the three of them, a rare smile appeared on Zhou Yuanjue’s calm face.
Unlike ordinary Martial Artists, these few were, to him, precious fellow travelers on the path.
"That’s right, it’s us. Ever since your fight with He Runlin of the Hunyuan Sect during the Southern Fighting Tournant, I knew you were no ordinary fish in a pond. It’s a sha I never got the chance to fight you. Now that I have the opportunity today, I must ask for your guidance!"
A wild smile spread across Ji Yunzhou’s lips as he took a sharp step forward.
SCREE!!
Following a series of sharp cries, a dense, distorted black magnetic field emanated from Ji Yunzhou’s body. Seven shadow-like specters scattered from him, blanketing a large area and resembling a blooming Black Lotus.
The Seven Spirits of a person!
As Ji Yunzhou’s Seven Spirits manifested, a corresponding magnetic field also spread out, affecting all living things nearby.
Shi Gou, Hidden Loss, Queyin, Swallowing Thieves, Non-Toxic, Cleaning Filth, and Foul Lung!
The power of the Seven Spirits was beginning to have a tangible effect on Zhou Yuanjue’s own magnetic field. This influence was sowhat similar to the emotional power of the Seven Desires, except the magnetic field of the Seven Desires targeted the internal organs, while Ji Yunzhou’s targeted specific bodily functions.
This was a magnetic field characteristic with imnse potential. Zhou Yuanjue suspected that upon reaching a certain realm, Ji Yunzhou might be able to separate his Seven Spirits, gaining the ability to control seven puppets simultaneously, just like the wielder of the Seven Desires.
’At that point, maybe they should be called Seven Spirit Puppets?’
However, that was all in the future. For now, the intensity of Ji Yunzhou’s magnetic field was still a far cry from the terrifying influence of a First Generation Level power like the Seven Desires. It was nearly impossible for him to affect Zhou Yuanjue with magnetic pressure and infiltration alone.
"Ji Yunzhou of the Seven Spirits Sect. I’ve long heard of your reputation."
A faint red light blood from Zhou Yuanjue’s body, forming a protective barrier around him. All of Ji Yunzhou’s magnetic field effects were instantly repelled, dissipating into nothingness.
"Impressive, as expected. I’ll be going all out now, so be careful!"
Ji Yunzhou took a deep breath, and his entire body erupted with a sudden Power Release.
BANG!!
His muscles bulged violently, and his magnetic field reached its peak along with the enhancent of his physical strength. At the sa ti, he tapped his fingers in the air around him.
The seven spreading black shadows instantly contracted, returning to Ji Yunzhou’s side.
At the sa ti, a smile appeared on Ji Yunzhou’s face.
POOF!!
The seven black shadows instantly collapsed and exploded.
Seven Spirits Disintegration!!
This was originally a terrifying, life-risking technique of the Seven Spirits Sect, yet Ji Yunzhou executed it as if it were nothing.
In an instant, his magnetic field, boosted by the explosive disintegration of his Seven Spirits, expanded to a terrifying degree. A pillar of black light erupted from his core, shooting toward the sky.
Ji Yunzhou’s hair stood on end, his eyes burned brightly, and a faint, untamable smile played on his lips.
At that mont, shrouded in black light, he looked like a Demon God descended upon the world.
’Is this so kind of state similar to releasing one’s self-limiters? No...’
Zhou Yuanjue narrowed his eyes. He could feel that Ji Yunzhou’s Seven Spirits magnetic field hadn’t dissipated. On the contrary, the black light from the disintegrated spirits had converged on his arm, forming the shape of a Ghost Head Saber.
Forging an Absolute Blade from the Seven Spirits!
This was the true Seven Spirits Blade! It was also the strongest technique Ji Yunzhou had comprehended after his near-death experience.
BANG!!
He took a step, and his body shot forward like an arrow!
Using his palm as a blade, the black Ghost Head Saber ford from the converged Seven Spirits magnetic field chopped down at Zhou Yuanjue’s neck with unparalleled montum.
The very air seed to be cleaved by this palm-blade, forming two distinct shockwaves.
Facing this attack, even Zhou Yuanjue, who was not using his Yin-Yang Life and Death State, revealed a solemn expression.
’Truly a peerless talent. He only reached Saint Awakening a few months ago, yet he can already unleash an attack like this.’
A red light flashed in his eyes. He bent his knees slightly, instantly assuming a fighting stance, and threw a punch up into the air.
SCREEE!!
The sharp cry was incredibly piercing. His fist was like the sharp beak of a giant bird.
BOOM!!
Their bodies collided. The imnse power sent ripples through the air. Ji Yunzhou’s body was visibly rocked by the impact, freezing for an instant.
But Zhou Yuanjue had already entered the realm of Yin Yang Unity. The Yin Fire burned within him, repairing his body at top speed, instantly dispelling the stun. With his other hand, he threw out a palm strike.
BANG!!
Red light exploded, and air currents shot out in all directions, like a grenade detonating. The magnetic field around Ji Yunzhou imdiately fractured, and his body was knocked back ten ters before he could barely stop himself.
The power Zhou Yuanjue now commanded was no longer sothing that could be withstood by simple techniques.
"Incredible!"
Ji Yunzhou took a deep breath. It seed he hadn’t expected to be defeated instantly even after using his strongest technique. The gap between them was quite large.
The black Ghost Head Saber on his arm dissipated, but the magnetic field didn’t vanish. Instead, it spread out once more, reforming into seven distorted black shadows around him.
With a single thought, the Seven Spirits were reshaped!
After experiencing the disintegration of his Seven Spirits, Ji Yunzhou’s control over his own Seven Spirits magnetic field had reached a terrifying level. Seven Spirits Disintegration had already beco a conventional technique for him. Although it still caused so damage, it was now within a controllable range.
"Brother Zhou, it’s been a while. We would also like to ask for a round."
Seeing Ji Yunzhou’s defeat, not only did Zhang Zhizhen and Jiang Jiushan show no fear, but their eyes glinted with an even greater longing.
A Martial Artist does not fear strength; they only yearn for it.
How could one grasp the true aning of greater strength without fighting a powerful opponent?
Only by facing the strong can one beco stronger.
Seeing their expressions, an even brighter and more genuine smile unconsciously spread across Zhou Yuanjue’s face.
"How about all three of you at once? I have a technique, my strongest one at the mont. Would you all like to experience it?"
Zhou Yuanjue said with a smile, walking to the side and picking up his waist pouch. He took out a small black wooden bottle from it.
"W-Wait a minute! We have important business later, do you really have to go this hard?!"
Seeing this, Daoist Bailong’s jaw dropped, his face filled with exasperation.
