Chapter 187: Destiny-Fixing Divine Ability
Among the law realm cultivators present, only Liu Jianxin had a deep understanding of fused Spiritual Laws.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t discern the true situation either and could only make guesses.
When Spiritual Laws are applied to monsters, they are classified as innate divine abilities, which are different from human Spiritual Laws.
For example, when a monster activates its divine ability, it is akin to how Spiritual Roots channel spirit energy—it’s instinctive.
In such cases, even the smallest spirit patterns won’t be visible, making it impossible for the naked eye to perceive their secrets.
"The Five Elements Spiritual Law, even if it’s a specially evolved version, wouldn’t be enough to achieve such a transformation."
"It must be a fused Spiritual Law—maybe a double fusion, or perhaps even a triple one," Liu Jianxin said.
Ji Yan frowned, "I didn’t expect you wouldn’t know about this creature…"
Monster divine abilities are often fixed; knowing in advance and exploring on-site have an enormous gap.
They had just tested the red bird’s attacks but at a heavy cost. Ji Xuan, a law realm cultivator, was gravely injured and unable to continue fighting.
And this was merely the first devastating attack revealed by the Great Disaster—what about the others?
How many attacks could the three of them withstand?
The atmosphere among the three grew tense.
Without needing to think, they all knew they couldn’t go all out in battle.
For law realms, their lives are more important than anything else; if their lives are at risk, they would undoubtedly choose to turn and flee.
At this point, Baishi Town was already in its final phase. After countless reductions during the Great Disaster, it was still so powerful.
If the Ji family used their Dao Artifact to kill a law realm cultivator again, the next Great Disaster would likely bring them close to death as well.
Currently, the deterrent power of the Dao Artifact had greatly diminished.
The three plotted in their minds.
Especially Ji Yan, who, as the leader, wanted to survive, not to die miserably as a pawn testing the strength of the Great Disaster.
The three law realm cultivators from the upper three families, along with him and Ji Xuan.
The reason it was these five who went into action was significant!
In terms of strength, they were the weakest; in terms of value, they were still at the bottom.
Just like Liu Wujing, who was destined to die, they too had to wade through this murky water and confront the Great Disaster.
The ancestor of the Zhu family and Ji Xuan’s retreat due to severe injuries came at a great cost, barely saving their lives.
The three of them lacked the courage, and now they had no opportunity left.
The power of this Great Disaster was visibly surging, and if they dared to send more words, they would likely end up stepping directly into the jaws of the Great Disaster!
"Whoosh!"
The Fire Commanding Kite, preening its feathers, let out a cry. Flames enveloped its body, washing over it from top to bottom, transforming it into a crystalline, translucent form, almost resembling a jade kite.
As its tail feathers extended strange light bands, they seemed to form numerous geometric shapes.
These special patterns interconnected within its body, visible to the eye.
It had digested the "food" it just consumed, restoring its condition.
The original projection couldn’t exert much power at all.
But now…
The Fire Commanding Kite spread its wings and soared into the sky. The remaining red light whirled in the heavens, and wisps of crimson energy rained down, enveloping the Fire Commanding Kite’s surface and forming its four tail feathers.
New tail feathers kept forming.
Although the three law realm cultivators did not understand what this represented, they sensed that just moments ago…
Just moments ago, they had made a gravely wrong decision!
"Kill!"
All three sprang into action, hoping to remedy the situation.
Ji Yan drew his silver sword, and armor appeared on his body.
Both were treasures with the power to match the law realms. Activating these two treasures, which balanced offense and defense, required immense energy but could effectively counter the Great Disaster’s bizarre abilities, preventing him from being interfered with like Ji Xuan and suffering self-inflicted injuries from his own attacks.
Chao Shanhe also firmly grasped a long spear, surrounded by a heavy, earthy aura.
Being skilled in Earth Element Walking Law, he mastered top-tier defensive abilities, and each strike was powerful enough to topple mountains.
The two launched their attacks against the Fire Commanding Kite, and while the outcome was unclear in the short term, their ominous premonition grew stronger.
Before the battle began, Qi Lian had bestowed a certain Spirit Law upon them, allowing them to sense fortune and misfortune.
This Spirit Law fused with their instincts, sharpening their perception of danger to an extreme degree.
The ancestor of the Zhu family and Ji Xuan survived thanks to this Spirit Law’s enhancement.
It was originally intended for them to gather more information and avoid death.
However!
The situation felt entirely wrong!
The three of them engaged in conversation precisely because they did not feel any danger, prompting their actions.
Theoretically, it shouldn’t happen that danger perception only activated after events unfolded.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The battle continued, and the spirit energy in the entire area became chaotic. The conflict involving Chao Shanhe, Ji Yan, and the Fire Commanding Kite spanned dozens of miles, one soaring to a height of a thousand meters.
The two were being suppressed by the Fire Commanding Kite.
Even though the projection that emerged from the Great Disaster was incomplete and fundamentally weaker than the Great Disaster monster, the essence of the Fire Commanding Kite was too strong. Its instinctive combat prowess was terrifyingly powerful, forcefully suppressing the two law realm cultivators.
The scales tipped!
"Wait! What is going on? Why does the sense of danger keep intensifying? Liu Jianxin, what are you doing? Hurry and use your Wind Spiritual Law to break it!"
Ji Yan shouted loudly.
"This doesn’t feel right! Something is coming; it’s definitely coming! This is more than an ordinary sense of crisis… it’s aiming to kill us! Who is plotting against me?!"
“Elevation of Spiritual Roots! Major Spiritual Law!”
Chao Shanhe, in a fit of rage, elevated his Spiritual Roots and unleashed the major Spiritual Law from the law realm — the Origin Great Law.
He transformed into a falling meteor in the sky, wrapped in a heavy earthy aura, and smashed down toward the Fire Commanding Kite.
Likewise, Ji Yan poured all his strength into the attack, as the Seven Star Rings gathered on his sword. With a roar, endless spirit energy was drawn in…
However, their suspicion proved correct.
They had indeed made a gravely wrong decision.
That was to allow the Fire Commanding Kite to restore itself!
The spirit energy gathered inverted.
The meteor descending upon the Fire Commanding Kite retreated, disintegrating back into Chao Shanhe.
Ji Yan stared in shock, almost horrified, as he watched the Seven Star Rings on his sword return to him one by one.
Time…
Seemed to flow backward!
“Is this a destined divine power? This Great Disaster is disrupting our perception with destined divine powers?!”
The two revealed expressions of utmost fear, as they had just felt their souls almost leaving their bodies.
What does this represent?
They had already been dancing on the edge of life and death, and there was a deadly danger aimed squarely at them!
Absolutely certain!
It was destined divine power; it was precisely because of this destined divine power that their fortune and misfortune sensing Spirit Law became ineffective, and their fated destinies could be altered!
Unknowingly, they had stepped into an extremely dangerous situation, and traps that could kill them had been laid!
“Gathering Star Law!”
“First Turn: Divine Sword Unsheathed! Second Turn: Heavenly Star High Suspended! Third Turn: Gathering Star Fiery Might!”
“Major Spiritual Law!”
“First Turn: Falling! Second Turn: Mountain Burdened!”
In that instant of returning to the original point, both erupted with powers unique to the law realms — magic power.
