Chapter 880: Soul Domain Technique

Davis also felt conflicted with his optimistic view.

It was just, even Ancestor Dian Alstreim's law comprehension didn't seem to increase by much even when his law comprehension should be deep, perhaps reaching the realm of Abstruse Intent. After all, Ancestor Dian Alstreim was a Law Rune Stage Powerhouse. Abstruse Intent was the next realm in Laws. They are comprehendible when a cultivator reaches the Eighth Stage.

It was unthinkable for Ancestor Dian Alstreim to remain at Level Nine Intent in Fire Laws! But then... Was his low comprehension of Fire Laws in soul due to his low Soul Forging Cultivation?

He didn't know the answer, and his attention was quickly grabbed away by the change in front of him.

*Rumble!~*

Ancestor Dian Alstreim lifted up his arm and reached out his hand towards the skies. He kept pushing out his soul force in an endless amount as the atmosphere started to visibly quake. Space wasn't shaking, but the air did as it became dark-red. In an instant, the atmosphere became steering hot, and even the surroundings near Davis started to sizzle.

Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked at the spectacle in front of him and viewed the Protector in an appreciative and admiring light.

"My Alstreim Family's Erupting Volcano Soul Mantra's offensive prowess is not any lesser than Seventh Stage's Body Tempering Cultivator's attack power. I am deeply impressed, or should I say 'as expected', but I can tell that your prowess in soul force has far surpassed mine."

"However, like a Law Dominion Stage Cultivator's Domain, the Erupting Volcano Soul possesses a similar technique. Let's see how you receive this without taking a hit!"

"Domain Disruption, Rumbling Crimson Sky!"

The sizzling sounds that heated up the atmosphere disappeared and the entirety of the world went silent. A flash of light suddenly blinded everyone, and an explosion that rocked the whole Grand Welcoming Hall soared!

The explosive domain stretched to the end and also engulfed the spectators, but before it could completely reach out, the yellowish defensive formation activated and forced the attack back from extending out.

The younger generation of the Alstreim Family was left in sweat as they slowly pulled back. At first, they were assured of their safety and stood close to view the heart racing battle, but after seeing that the defensive formation reacted slowly to a domain-like soul attack, they wisely started to retreat to a level.

Their throats moved as they gulped. They were all close to being critically injured, perhaps, even dying.

The reactions of the Conferred Queen's group became bothered and concerned. Especially Evelynn and Natalya were holding their hearts in their throats. Even though they were aware that the Davis who was battling was the Solitary Soul Avatar, they still felt troubled.

They weren't aware of the intricacies, nor did they know that it was not harmful to Davis to lose his Solitary Soul Avatar. Hence, they were afraid that if anything untoward occurred, his soul would be injured.

On the other hand, Princess Isabella and Nadia looked relatively at ease because they were the only ones in the group who were able to measure the power of the soul force. Davis possessed the absolute advantage from what they had seen, and the danger he faced remained relatively less.

Princess Isabella noticed their nervousness before turning back and smiling at them, putting all of them back to ease.

Above the martial platform, Davis looked around him as he took the brunt of the small sparks that continuously exploded. However, it was not him who took the brunt but the barrier surrounding him made of light red feathers. The barrier was stable even though it continuously shook on being touched by the dark-red sparks.

'So these tiny dark-red sparks that have filled the entirety of the martial platform is being thrown at me? This is a domain? Why does it strictly seem like an area of effect attack to me?' Davis pondered as he just stood without taking any countermeasures.

It wasn't that he wanted to attack, but he didn't want to attack and make an embarrassment out of Ancestor Dian Alstreim, which might, in turn, make Ancestor Dian Alstreim use his Law Rune Stage Cultivation in anger. Davis wanted to avoid that situation as he could see it coming from miles away.

A brief moment of reprieve arrived, making him view through the Formless Incandescence Feather Shield he had cast. It was as if the small sparks retreated. Just when he saw what they were up to, the small sparks distorted as if they were disappearing into space and reappeared.

Davis searched for the disappeared dark-red sparks before he looked above. Crimson lights flashed, and the small dark-red sparks combined to form a huge dark-red spark, no, a ball that looked like a flaming meteor.

'It's like a domain, alright. It should be difficult to control soul techniques to this level, making it disappear and reappear in some other place. Only in a domain could the cultivator use his energy to his will.' Davis mused.

"Withstand this!"

Hearing Ancestor Dian Alstreim's voice, Davis smiled, 'A pity that it is still not enough...'

Davis clasped his hands with his fingers and controlled the Formless Incandescence Feather Shield to strengthen its defense. The floating Vermilion Bird's feathers flashed with a crimson glow, no longer radiating a light red glow, and formed two huge wings around him that enveloped the barrier.

The dark-red flaming ball descended like a meteor that crashed into the blazing wings as a heaven-shaking explosion echoed in the Grand Welcoming Hall like a tidal wave. Few people even had their ears ruptured. Their ears bled, but they paid no attention to and looked at the storm of smoke swirling in the center of the martial platform.

Although these attacks could be easily deflected by Law Sea Stage Experts, they too looked at the scene in awe. To conjure this much force with just the soul, that itself gave them an immense advantage in a battle between cultivators who possessed equal Essence Gathering Cultivation Base.

The smoke disappeared in a minute, and what appeared in their view was an unarmed Conferred Queen's Protector who still kept his barrier technique and their Ancestor, who seemed to heave a sigh of defeat.

It seemed as if exchanging pointers has come to an end?

Claire heaved a sigh of relief. Nothing happened to her son.

"I've already used most of the techniques from my Erupting Volcano Soul Mantra, and further exchange of pointers is useless. Although there are some techniques that try to affect the soul, I doubt it would be of any use with the skill and prowess you have shown..."

"How about making me experience your prowess in soul techniques?"

Davis became a little hesitant. Looking at Ancestor Dian Alstreim's smiling expression, he felt that something was going on, but he just couldn't place his hand on it.

'Could it be that after witnessing how I easily defended against his attacks, he's still not convinced?' Davis didn't think that Ancestor Dian Alstreim was a sore loser.

Neither did he feel it was the case since Ancestor Dian Alstreim did admit that he lost in the battle of soul techniques.

Then pride?

"If you insist, I can't rudely decline..." Davis waved his hand, and the Formless Incandescence Feather Shield shook while the wings stretched and flapped once before it disappeared.
