"Yuâer, when you have time, you can interact with him, as it will benefit our Ouyang Family," Ouyang Zhenhua said to Ouyang Yu.
"Understood." Ouyang Yu nodded and quietly watched the battle unfolding before him.
Nine Yang Mystic Art, third level!
Break for me!
Ye Luo pushed the Nine Yang Mystic Art to its limits, unleashing the power of the first three levels, his True Qi burst forth wildly, and he ferociously struck towards the fist of the Situ Wentian on his right, utterly disregarding the fists of the other five Situ Wentians.
With a loud bang, Ye Luoâs fist collided with the opponentâs fist, emitting a tangible sound, while the fists of the other seven figures landed on Ye Luoâs body but had no real destructive power, clearly indicating they were all illusions.
After a muffled sound, Ye Luoâs body trembled, and that Situ Wentian couldnât help but retreat two steps, his eyes revealing a shocked expression as he looked at Ye Luo.
"How could you see through my Eight Desolates Shadow, itâs impossible, except for those in the Saint Realm, no one should be able to see through it."
Situ Wentianâs expression was filled with astonishment; he had just used a move from his Sectâs Tianzong elite Cultivation Technique, Eight Desolates Step, which involves creating solid shadows of oneself using footwork formations for attacks.
The Eight Desolates Shadow was different from the illusory clones of other Cultivation Techniques, which might just be a mirage that could be seen through upon closer inspection, but these shadows carried the essence, energy, and spirit of a real person, nearly indistinguishable from the real thing.
Even formidable experts would be unable to see through it, except maybe those in the Saint Realm, yet Ye Luo was merely at the Innate Middle Stage. How could he possibly see through the real body so easily?
But what Situ Wentian didnât know was that Ye Luo had the heaven-defying Clairvoyant Eye, and although the Eight Desolates Shadow was indeed impressive, Ye Luo initially couldnât distinguish it from reality.
It was as if there were really eight identical people attacking him, but once he activated the Clairvoyant Eye, the other seven turned into mere shadows, and he saw through them at a glance.
Clearly, the Clairvoyant Eye had a potent effect on seeing through real bodies and illusions, rendering such illusory attacks useless against him in the future.
"How did you see through it?" Situ Wentianâs eyes shimmered with an intense color of doubt as he looked at Ye Luo.
"Call me âGrandpa,â and maybe Iâll tell you," Ye Luo said with a light laugh.
"It seems youâre completely intent on provoking me. Very well, I will show you the true might of Situ Wentian."
After saying this, Situ Wentian was enveloped in an extremely terrifying aura, exuding an oppressive atmosphere, his expression solemn as his hands quickly condensed something.
All things under heaven, the ultimate of the universe!
"Wen Tian has even mastered the top tier Cultivation Technique of Tianzong, the Boundless Seal?"
Situ Yunchao looked at Situ Wentian with an expression of astonishment, his demeanor filled with excitement.
"It seems Tianzong indeed favors this Situ Wentian, to even teach him the top tier Cultivation Technique, the Boundless Seal. Now, that kid Ye Luo is in danger," said Mu Qingsong, his pupils slightly focused, his gaze flickering.
"Father, is this Boundless Seal very strong?" Mu Yunlong couldnât help but ask.
"The Boundless Seal is one of the top techniques of the Tianzong, with supreme power. When Situ Wentian utilizes it, not even an Innate Peak Stage expert can necessarily withstand it," Mu Qingsong said solemnly.
Hearing Mu Qingsongâs words, many people present had their expressions tense up, and the faces of Qin Yuru, Situ Luoyun, and Han Mengxi changed instantly, filled with worry in their eyes.
"Itâs all my fault, all my fault," Han Mengxi thought with immense self-blame. If it werenât for her, Ye Luo would not have been drawn into the battle.
"Boundless Seal! All things shall be extinguished!"
Situ Wentian roared angrily, his hands swiftly forming a giant seal. The void congealed into a clear black and white pattern resembling the Eight Trigrams, exuding an aura of profound heaviness; the air in the void shattered apart, and an invisible gust of wind emerged, pulverizing everything within a dozen meters, including furniture such as tables and chairs, all crushed to smithereens by the powerful wind generated by the Boundless Seal.
The guests in the courtyard had already retreated to a safe place to watch this battle. Though they stood at the apex of Huaxiaâs upper echelons, such a fight was a first for them, both breathtaking and awe-inspiring.
At this moment, as Situ Wentian unleashed this powerful move, his aura continued to rise, surpassing the Innate Late Stage and emitting a presence comparable to that of an Innate Peak Stage expert. An invisible atmosphere enveloped all around, forcing Ye Luo to continuously retreat.
Ye Luoâs expression was extremely solemn at this moment, his demeanor grave. The opponentâs move was too strong; to resist, he had to use the Imperial Dragon Art. However, the first seal was not enough â perhaps only the second seal of the Imperial Dragon Art, the Mysterious Dragon Seal, might be able to withstand it, yet he had never used the Mysterious Dragon Seal before.
"No matter what, letâs risk it all."
Determination flashed in Ye Luoâs eyes as he boosted the power of the Nine Yang Mystic Art to its peak within him. The strength from both his extraordinary meridians and his Dantian surged forth, converging together.
"Imperial Dragon Art, Mysterious Dragon Seal!"
As Ye Luo uttered a low shout, his body glowed with a red light, and then his hands too began to form seals. Countless red glows quickly converged into a shadow of a dragon, emitting a fearsome aura and carrying a hint of the Dragonâs Might, instantly neutralizing the momentum released by the Boundless Seal.
Seeing that Ye Luo had also unleashed a strong technique, Situ Wentianâs face sank, and he hurled the Boundless Seal condensed in his hands towards Ye Luo.
Boom!
The Boundless Seal, clear in black and white like the Eight Trigrams and immensely huge, pressed down towards Ye Luo, carrying an imposing weight as heavy as the heavens, seeking to suppress all creations.
"Break!"
Ye Luo too roared at this time, his hands slamming forward as the Mysterious Dragon Seal fully formed, the massive red shadow of the dragon issuing a resounding dragonâs cry as it shot through the skies, seemingly about to burst through the heaven and earth, and slammed directly against the descending Boundless Seal.
Rumbling...
In an instant, roaring sounds like thunder echoed as the two ultimate techniques collided, akin to a fireball striking Earth, unleashing unimaginable power. Ripple after ripple of Qi surged like a tidal wave in all directions.
"This is bad, everyone retreat! Protect the guests!"
Situ Liuyunâs face changed in that moment as he fiercely ordered.
Immediately, several powerful Innate Experts from the Situ Family rushed out, positioning themselves before the guests, all of them channeling their internal strength to ward off the spreading shockwave of energy. Otherwise, once it spilled out, the ordinary guests who couldnât defend themselves would surely suffer casualties.
