Chapter 132: Something unexpected happened!
"Luo Feng and Rong Jun, I can't wait for their match! Who's stronger between them?"
The duel between Luo Feng and Rong Jun in the central square completely captivated the geniuses of all 1008 universe nations.
"I think Luo Feng is better, isn't he the senior brother?"
"Five or six years ago, back when it was the national talent competition, Rong Jun was defeated by Luo Feng, and it was a complete rout. Clearly, Rong Jun was no match for him!"
"Judging from the fluctuations of their laws, Luo Feng is clearly much stronger; he should be the more powerful one!"
"There's nothing to think about. The competition is about to start, and the results will be out soon."
Most of these geniuses believed that Luo Feng would win, after all, the shock brought by the seemingly effortless skill was too great.
The vast majority of those who believed in the immortals thought Rong Jun would win:
"A battle between two fellow disciples—it's hard to imagine. What kind of master could have nurtured two such formidable disciples!"
"These two little guys are actually fellow disciples. I almost forgot. Just who is this great being who could cultivate two super geniuses who can crush Berlan? If the facts weren't right in front of me, it would be hard to believe..."
"Those little guys are still too inexperienced; they have no idea how powerful their self-created secret techniques are."
In the plaza, the conversations between those genius martial artists were easily overheard by these immortals.
"Yes, Rong Jun's two self-created secret techniques combined are almost at the level of 'ordinary' secret techniques. This is something many immortals cannot achieve. The power unleashed by self-created secret techniques is far beyond what can be achieved by learning secret techniques from others."
"Hmm, judging from their understanding of the laws, Luo Feng's understanding of the laws isn't much stronger than his junior brother Rong Jun's..."
"The essence of secret techniques is nothing more than the application of basic principles such as the understanding of one's own laws, the amplitude of power, and the amplitude of mental power. Rong Jun created two secret techniques, which allowed him to reach a terrifying level of application of his own strength."
Given the same basic conditions, the strength he can unleash is far greater than that of others!
Zhou Ze also heard the immortals' discussions. The self-created secret techniques were indeed extremely powerful. Even though Tu Man's comprehension had increased by an unknown amount under his cheat, and he spent half of his time every day creating secret techniques, it took him more than seven or eight years to comprehend two low-level secret techniques. This was even with his previous foundation.
Given the immense difficulty, most of the immortals at this stage believed that Tu Man's creation of his own secret technique was premature.
Under the same principle, Tu Man created two second-rate secret techniques. Furthermore, these two secret techniques showed a tendency to merge, and their overall power was almost approaching that of ordinary-level secret techniques.
However, if Rong Jun could achieve such a level in the past seven or eight years, creating his own secret techniques, which is so difficult, then what about Luo Feng?
In the Law of Metal, Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast body can be considered a darling of the Law of Metal, and in the Law of Space, he, with his Demon Slayer Clan clone, is also a darling of the Law of Space.
Without considering comprehension, Luo Feng's talent in these two fundamental laws is unparalleled. Even Bo Lan is inferior in terms of clarity regarding these two laws.
Furthermore, if you add the comprehension bonus provided by Zhou Ze's cheat, there is also a triple comprehension speed bonus for all three bodies!
Even though Luo Feng has been building his foundation over the past seven or eight years, his improvement in strength is still unmatched by Rong Jun!
As his disciples, Zhou Ze absorbed all their insights, including their specific levels of strength.
Zhou Ze knew this better than they did.
These claims of immortality are likely to be proven wrong again.
"Battle begins!"
With the Nine Swords Master announcing the start of the battle, the fourth round of the competition began.
On the arena, Luo Feng and Rong Jun stood facing each other, but did not immediately begin fighting.
"Senior brother, let's settle this in one move—" Rong Jun said solemnly.
Over the years, they have clashed many times, and they are very familiar with each other's fighting styles. He has an extremely strong natural fighting spirit, but Luo Feng is no less so, so there is no need for any probing.
"Alright, it's been a while since we last cut. Let me see the knife skills you've saved for me!" Luo Feng said calmly, with a strong sense of confidence.
However, having attained enlightenment, he severed all inner distractions and desires. Even though he was confident that he could defeat his junior brother, he did not let his guard down in the slightest and always maintained his best condition.
"Watch out, senior brother!"
Tu Man's body was enveloped in a surge of earthy yellow energy. As the energy spread, the air almost solidified. He condensed everything within himself—his physical strength, primal energy, domain, the laws of earth, and the laws of space—to the maximum extent possible.
The aura was extremely terrifying, giving people a sense of heaviness as if facing a towering mountain. Even the geniuses watching from a great distance felt a heavy and oppressive feeling that permeated their bodies and souls.
terrible!
Even Berlan was deeply shocked!
At this moment, no one believed that Luo Feng could handle such an attack, because this was only Tu Man's first self-created secret technique.
He also has another self-created secret technique that he has not yet revealed.
"Whoosh!"
Tu Man moved, his body as heavy as a towering mountain, yet his speed was incredibly deceptive, as fast as lightning!
Behind him, illusory figures emerged and rushed towards Luo Feng. All the illusory figures seemed to merge with Tu Man, and all their power erupted at this moment.
"go!"
Behind Luo Feng, a dark golden staff flew out with a series of golden lights. These golden lights extended out with golden threads and secret patterns, connecting with each other and quickly combining into a huge, misty totem golden pillar!
The fourth level of the Divine Weapon is the Great Skill Without Artifice!
The enormous totem pillar emitted a hazy golden light, within which faint, indistinct patterns of laws and principles could be seen.
Despite its seemingly clumsy appearance, it was far faster than Rong Jun.
Furthermore, the entire totem pillar is perfectly integrated, without the slightest flaw!
"Boom!"
The totem pillar crashed into it instantly, and the space along the way seemed to be flattened like a pancake. Before even getting close, Rong Jun felt as if he had entered a spatial domain, which was extremely uncomfortable.
"break!"
Rong Jun roared, combining his two secret techniques, and slashed down with his sword. It was like a ten-thousand-foot mountain, crashing into Luo Feng's totem golden pillar at an incredible speed!
boom!!!
The deafening roar, like a meteorite hitting the Earth, reverberated throughout the entire central plaza!
But to almost everyone's surprise, this seemingly evenly matched collision was actually one-sided!
The totem pillar hesitated slightly before crashing into Rong Jun's indescribable full-force strike, and then with a "poof," crushed Tu Man into a bloody mist!
"How is that possible!"
The immortals were amazed, and many of them immediately stood up and stared intently at Luo Feng on the arena.
"How can something so seemingly simple yet so powerful be so?!"
Many immortals were utterly shocked; this was completely unexpected!
"It is the essence of space," the Nine Swords Venerable said calmly.
All the immortals looked towards the Nine Swords Venerable, waiting for him to explain further, but suddenly a roar rang out:
"Drink! Break it!"
No way?
As if struck by a giant star, all the immortals remembered something and, in less than 0.01 seconds, all turned to look at the other arena.
In their field of vision, what was happening on the ring between Berlan and Clark at that moment almost made their eyes pop out!
Clark excitedly pulled the long, colorful ribbon with both hands, while the other end of the ribbon was still wrapped around Berlan.
"Damn it!"
Bolan's blood sword fell limply to the ground. He clenched his fists and unleashed his full power, trying to break free from Cai Ling's restraints.
"Break! Break! Break!"
Berlan's facial muscles contorted.
"What are you shouting for!"
Clark grinned from ear to ear. Under his control, the colorful ribbon, like a rare, multicolored python, continuously coiled around Berlan, round and round—…
Soon, Berlan was bound from head to toe with almost no gaps except for his pair of wings.
Even their mouths and eyes were completely wrapped up!
Bolan struggled incessantly, trying to break free of the colorful silk binding him, but with his hands and feet tied, he could not unleash even a fraction of his strength, and could not use any of his powerful abilities.
"Waaaaaahhhhhh—"
"Ha ha ha ha--"
On one side, there was the faint whimpering of Berlan, and on the other side, Clark's unrestrained laughter.
This art style is truly distorted!
It was as if a young girl had been unwittingly tied up with a rope by a burly man and was struggling desperately.
"What happened? My God!"
"With Berlan's speed, how could he be tied up???"
"Outrageous! Could Berlan have been quadra-killed?"
"I feel like I'm dreaming today—"
"Why is today so full of surprises? I've had more surprises than in my entire life."
"Is Bolan going to lose again? Is he really a once-in-ten-thousand-epoch genius? How can a once-in-ten-thousand-epoch genius lose four times in a row? Third time's the charm!"
The group of geniuses were completely dumbfounded, and even the immortals not far away stood frozen in place like statues.
"No way, no way—" the immortal of the Noah Universe Kingdom murmured blankly.
"Damn it, ribbons are extremely troublesome weapons, especially when you're tied up!"
"What's going on with Bolan? With his agility, how could he be entangled in the colorful silk, and so thoroughly wrapped up???"
"I'm utterly speechless! Who could have imagined that Berlan, a figure who appears only once every tens of thousands of epochs, would suffer such a series of tragedies!"
"No, no, there should still be a chance. It's obvious that his understanding of the laws of colored light is far inferior to that of Berlan, so there should be a chance."
Below the arena, Luo Feng and Tu Man, who had been teleported down from the arena, stared wide-eyed in disbelief. It wasn't that they looked down on their little brother, Clark.
With Clark's current strength, it is obvious that he is no match for Berlan, and Clark has not been hiding his strength at all.
How did Berlan fall for it?
Although his colorful ribbon was strange, it was impossible for it to entangle Berlan. With Berlan's understanding of the laws of space, he could kill Clark instantly with a single sword strike!
"How cunning! This kid is just like me!" Thor laughed so hard he couldn't stop, completely losing his composure, slapping the table as he laughed.
"What happened?" Tu Man immediately asked Thor.
Clearly, Thor was not only watching the battle between Luo Feng and Tu Man, but also the battle between Berlan and Clark.
"Haha—it's nothing!" Thor laughed heartily, explaining breathlessly, "It's just—"
"After I tricked Bolan, his mentality probably collapsed."
"Then it was the two of you who were far stronger than him that got into a fight, and he paid close attention to you two," Thor said, catching his breath. "Clark's strength is just so-so, unlike me, who can make him take things seriously."
"Then you know, actually his understanding of the Clark Law is not weak, but as a weapon, Cai Ling lacks powerful attacks. When he encounters something fast and with high defense, he doesn't have a good way to deal with it."
"But if I accidentally get entangled with him, I think I might not be able to break free, because in this situation..."
With my hands and feet bound like this, I couldn't muster any strength at all.
As Thor spoke, he pointed at Berlan, who was struggling in the ring. Every time Berlan struggled, Clark would cunningly loosen his grip slightly, then tighten it again in an instant, like a giant python patiently waiting for its prey to become powerless to struggle.
"Stop struggling, little brother Bolan. I admit my strength is far inferior to yours, but now that I've got you entangled, even if my little brother Rong Jun came, I'm confident I could keep him from breaking free!"
Clark grabbed the ribbon with both hands and exclaimed excitedly:
"Don't worry, the pain will only last a moment. Don't resist, I'll be quick—"
Below the ring, Rong Jun's expression remained blank upon hearing Clark's words.
Thor was speechless: "This little guy is going a bit too far."
Luo Feng laughed and said, "He was too excited."
"Clark's victory over Berlan is quite unexpected—" A voice simultaneously entered Luo Feng and the others' minds.
"teacher!"
"teacher!"
Luo Feng and Tu Man both shouted in their voices.
"Teacher Zhou—" Thor asked telepathically while watching the arena, "Won't Berlan just lose like this?"
"Yes." Zhou Ze affirmed, "Don't underestimate Clark. Although he's usually a bit carefree, his attitude towards cultivation, while not as good as yours, is still extremely dedicated."
"His understanding of the laws of time far surpasses that of Naberan, but it is far inferior to his understanding of the laws of space."
"Moreover, he has always liked to use colorful silk ribbons and has put a lot of thought into them. He is very skilled in using colorful silk ribbons."
"Once you get entangled with him, even if you are a martial artist and your strength is far greater than his, you will not be able to exert your full strength, and it will only be a matter of time before you are defeated."
"Berlan was too careless, but that's to be expected, considering Clark's performance was quite ordinary."
If those super geniuses who aren't qualified to participate in the arena heard the word "very ordinary," they would be speechless.
Keep in mind that Clark also made it into the top five based on sheer strength! He's no pushover! It's just that Aya's power was ultimately lacking, and her performance was rather ordinary.
Of course, compared to the unparalleled performances of Bolan, Luo Feng, Tu Man, and even Thor on the ring, they are indeed not on the same level.
Tu Man said earnestly, "Yes, indeed, you can't be careless when facing anyone, no matter how inferior they are to you!"
As someone who has personally experienced this, Tu Man has deep insights!
Thor shook his head and chuckled, transmitting his voice: "This Berlan never learns his lesson. I just tricked him, and now he's tricked again!"
Luo Feng chuckled and transmitted his voice, "You can't really blame him too much. Who would have thought that the seemingly ordinary Junior Brother Clark would actually be hiding such a killer skill!"
Zhou Ze transmitted his voice, "It's not really an assassination attempt. Although this move has extremely strong power and suppressive force, it's too useless. If the opponent is even a little fast, how can they be so easily bound!"
"With a casual strike, I can shatter the primal energy and consciousness clinging to the colorful ribbons and break free—"
"Even a lion needs to go all out to catch a rabbit. You all need to be more careful in the future. The world is a big place, and anything can happen!"
