Chapter 944 Fourth Trial: Test of Insights! (4)
The auburn-haired woman was about to retort and rebuke the white-robed young man for underestimating her, but a moment later she felt a sharp, searing pain coming from her right palm.
Lowering her head to look at her hand and the horrible condition it was in, her scarlet eyes widened in disbelief before she hurriedly turned her gaze towards the distant Shun Long.
''Do you understand now? That lightning around him isn't normal. If I let you fight him for a few more seconds, you would have already turned into a corpse.'' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The long-haired man's voice was casual but both the young woman and the messy-haired man couldn't help but feel a chill coursing through their hearts!
What type of lightning was that and how could it be so terrifying? The auburn-haired woman had only exchanged a single attack with Shun Long -no, not even one attack since the long-haired man had teleported her away before they could fully clash- and yet her hand was severely burned as a result. Then... what would have happened if they had truly fought just now?
Taking a deep breath, the woman with scarlet eyes nodded and steeled herself before she said seriously
''Alright, I admit that none of us are strong enough to fight him by ourselves. Let us fight together then!''
The messy-haired young man nodded as well, indicating that he agreed with her assessment, before the 3 of them gradually spread out, encircling Shun Long from every direction.
However, Shun Long wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention to the auburn-haired woman or the messy-haired young man with the bronze staff. Although the two of them were strong enough to break past his defenses and injure him if left alone, they were still individually weaker than Bai Longtian and Xingyi.
Instead, his gaze was fully focused on the white-robed man with the plain-looking face! This was the first time that Shun Long was fighting someone who had also comprehended the 'Dao of Space'!
What drew Shun Long's attention the most however, was the different application of the 'Dao of Space' this purple-robed young man used.
And yet, the 4 people at the heart of it all didn't seem to have noticed, as they continued to exchange destructive attacks between them.
..
An hour later, Shun Long was finally satisfied after seeing everything the white-robed man had to offer.
At this point, Shun Long had to admit that the way this long-haired man used his 'Dao of Space' was indeed unique. Not only could he teleport his companions to safety and redirect Shun Long's bolts of 'Heavenly Tribulation', but he could also encase himself or his opponent in a 'cocoon' of space tears.
This cocoon was almost impregnable from the outside, absorbing almost every attack, and utterly deadly from the inside. Anyone who hadn't comprehended the 'Dao of Space' themselves or didn't have any ways to defend against the deadly power of spatial rifts, would be ripped apart in a matter of seconds.
Unfortunately for the white-robed man, Shun Long's control of space wasn't any weaker than his own, allowing him to effortlessly destroy his space cocoons.
This had left the white-robed young man feeling utterly distressed. It was almost as if this mere rank 8 Dao King in front of him didn't have any weakness!
At this point though, Shun Long knew that it was time to end their fight. Although his opponents weren't overly dangerous, they were still peak-stage Dao Kings, and extraordinary ones as well. Fighting them for so long to absorb the white-robed man's 'Dao of Space' had caused him to expend a large amount of qi in the process. Even with his vast reserves of qi, Shun Long knew that fighting 3 strong opponents for so long was bound to exhaust him eventually.
In the next moment, the sparks of lightning around his body vanished and even the black sword in his hand disappeared. Staring at the 3 peak-stage Dao Kings in the distance though, Shun Long actually smiled before he said to the white-robed man
''Since you've showed me your strongest attacks, I suppose it's time for me to return the favor.''
The invisible figure of an hourglass then expanded from his body, before his lips parted, letting out 2 simple words
''Monarch's Domain.''
