Chapter 134: Magical Artifacts Are Also a Part of Strength
“Raging Waves!”
At that moment, it felt as if the entire infinite ocean was crashing down.
Xu Gang’s eyes showed a hint of seriousness. His opponent had unleashed their ultimate move, and if he didn’t retaliate, how could he live up to his master’s title of being a cannon platform?
A thousand-hand illusion appeared behind Xu Gang, with hundreds of hands forming spell seals, stirring up the entire Magma World.
“Technique: Disaster of Magma”
Facing the towering waves, a Giant Hand made of magma rose from the lava and gently tapped the massive wave.
In an instant, the entire wave and the surrounding water area of the Genius Disciple turned into magma.
A gigantic shark made of magma emerged from beneath the Genius Disciple’s feet, its jaws wide open, ready to devour him.
When the giant shark bit down, it found only a pile of wood.
In the distance, Xu Yuexian nodded and said, “Hmm, that’s a qualified cannon platform.”
In her understanding, a qualified cannon platform not only bombs but also protects itself well. A cannon platform that needs protection is just a living target—those were Xu Fan’s exact words.
At that moment, the illusion of the infinite ocean appeared in the sky again, and giant trees suddenly sprouted beneath the magma, covering all the magma areas completely.
“Water nurtures, all things thrive.”
In an instant, the entire Magma World became enveloped by the giant forest, with countless massive vines thrashing in the air, as if searching for something.
Looking at this battlefield, it appeared completely empty, yet various techniques and spells wreaked havoc. If Xu Fan had seen this, he would definitely have exclaimed, “Old Silver Coin!”
At this moment, Xu Gang, hiding in the shadows, recalled his master’s teachings: if you can’t find the enemy’s position, then bombard in the direction where you feel the strongest intuition.
Xu Gang felt the entire battlefield resonating with him as the thousand-hand illusion detached from him and appeared in the air.
At this point, the thousand-hand illusion transformed into a three-zhang law form, with hundreds of hands forming spell seals behind it, causing the spiritual energy within the dao artifact to grow frantic.
The Void Refinement stage cultivator watching from a distance suddenly felt a hint of danger.
Xu Yuexian observed this scene and skillfully took out three pairs of sunglasses, putting them on Little Xi and her nephew.
The four disciples watching beside her looked a bit puzzled by Xu Yuexian’s actions.
“Taoist friend, what are you doing?” one of the disciples asked.
“Oh, these are to block strong light. You all should close your eyes soon,” Xu Yuexian replied without further explanation.
At this moment on the battlefield, the thousand-hand illusion had completed its spell seals.
Countless spiritual energies evenly formed dozens of fireballs resembling missiles above the towering forest.
‘Nuclear Blast Technique’
‘Boom!!’
Mountains crumbled, the earth split.
In an instant, the heavens and earth were covered by white light, and dozens of mushroom clouds rose from the battlefield in the distance.
“Ah, my eyes~~” shouted the four Nascent Soul disciples watching. They felt as if they had gone blind.
The shockwave from the explosion instantly broke through the protective shield of spiritual energy set up by the Core Formation stage cultivator.
"Not good."
Outside the protective shield of spiritual energy lay the precious spiritual herbs he had painstakingly cultivated.
A more robust protective shield held firm against the violent shockwaves.
"My heavens, this is a Nascent Soul Stage battle. It’s beyond belief," gasped the four observing disciples, rubbing their eyes in awe.
One disciple, who had thought himself slightly inferior, now realized that to that outsider, he wasn’t even a warm-up.
With such powerful techniques, he’d be finished in no time.
As the smoke cleared, a massive wooden ball, ten meters in diameter, appeared at the battlefield’s center.
Its surface was scorched, pitted, and cracked.
A green spiritual light flared, transforming the wooden ball into a wooden statue wielding a wooden spear, standing amidst the barren battlefield.
Xu Gang, hidden in the shadows, frowned at the wooden statue.
Area spells lacked precision; it seemed he’d have to resort to artillery.
At that moment, Xu Gang drained all the spiritual energy from his Spirit String Bracelet and prepared for his next assault.
Ten solid spirit iron balls, etched with runes, materialized in the sky.
“You’re impressive to last this long under my technique,” Xu Gang’s voice boomed across the battlefield.
“You’re not bad yourself. Perhaps we can be friends someday,” the Genius Disciple’s voice echoed in the arena.
“Can you keep going? Another attack might injure you,” Xu Gang warned.
“Haha, it’s rare to find an evenly matched opponent.”
“Then let’s continue!”
As the Genius Disciple spoke, the wooden statue began to transform again. The battlefield seemed to rejuvenate, reverting to a dense forest, while the wooden statue grew to ten zhang tall, its spear morphing into a colossal precious artifact.
A massive wooden Giant Shield appeared in the statue’s other hand.
“I carry a treasure gifted by an elder, the Hundred Spirit Spring. It lets me fight for ten days and nights. As long as the spring flows, I cannot be defeated.”
“Admittedly, I might have an advantage here,” the Genius Disciple said lightly, without a trace of arrogance, as if stating a simple fact.
From a distance, Xu Yuexian nearly laughed but had to concede that her brother’s opponent was an exceptional combatant.
She knew that within the Hidden Spirit Sect, aside from Xu Fan, her brother Xu Gang possessed the most artifacts. Xu Fan had poured his heart into crafting her brother’s treasures, including the large Spiritual Energy Armor that only Xu Gang owned among their peers.
“No matter. Artifacts are part of one’s strength,” Xu Gang muttered as he donned the four-type reflective armor of the precious artifact.
“If you want to fight, let’s keep going.”
The thousand-hand illusion resumed forming seals, and the spirit iron balls launched one after another.
*Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!*
Ten consecutive shots riddled the wooden statue with holes, even piercing its core. Yet, the statue’s full-strength strike shattered the thousand-hand illusion in the sky.
“Seems you weren’t hiding inside the statue. Time for round two.”
Behind Xu Gang, another thousand-hand illusion emerged, its hundreds of hands forming seals. Xu Gang, clad in his Spiritual Energy Armor, joined in the seal formation.
Suddenly, a hundred missile-like fireballs appeared above the forest, each larger than the last.
At this point, the Core Formation stage cultivator watching from afar could no longer hold back. With a wave of his hand, he drained all spiritual energy from the battlefield and dispelled every technique and spell.
“Call it a draw. Continuing is pointless,” the cultivator said lightly, though his heart ached for the medicinal herb field. This Spatial Tool was meant for cultivating spiritual herbs and storing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures.
Using it as a battlefield had been a spur-of-the-moment decision, but he hadn’t anticipated these two juniors to be so ferocious. Despite being mere Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, they had unleashed the intensity of a Transformation Stage sect battle.
Xu Gang slowly descended from the sky, while the Genius Disciple emerged from beneath the earth.
The two locked eyes, each sensing a kindred spirit in the other, akin to Guan Zhong meeting Bao Shuya.
To find such a companion in life is to truly savor its richness.
