Chapter 2221 Converging Domain

Chapter 2221 Converging Domain

He was unperturbed by Rui's meager attempts.

"Is that the best that you can do?" Master Kaijin narrowed his eyes. "You think you have the leeway to hold back?"

His expression flared with rage.

"Let's see how long you can continue with that."

WHOOSH!

With a single step, he arrived before Rui with devastating power and speed.

"Breathing Crucifix."

The man froze as he choked, struggling to breathe.

BOOOM!!!

"Rgh...!" He grimaced as a thundering Yin-Yang Spear crashed into his abdomen, unguarded. Master Kaijin was shocked at the sheer amount of destructive power that Rui was able to impart in a single blow. He didn't even understand where the power of the technique came from, considering how greatly it exceeded the visible momentum of his opponent's body.

It was as though the technique was able to conjure up power out of nowhere.

"You're right." Rui's calm and composed voice reached him. "I can't afford to hold back much against you."

A flash of determination flickered in his eyes.

"Hah!" Master Kaijin grinned. "Alright then, I'll show you my full power!!"

His expression grew labored as he fought against Breathing Crucifix with all his might, barely able to activate a single breathing technique at all.

Ever since Rui broke through to the Master Realm, the hypnomatrix had become especially powerful due to the immense power of his mind. It could seal the breathing techniques of his opponents almost entirely, requiring them to struggle to use techniques that they would ordinarily be able to use effortlessly.

Yet, Master Kaijin's eyes grew bloodshot as they began bleeding with effort. He pushed himself to the very limit, forcing his diaphragm to move with sheer will and determination.

The breathing technique he activated was special.

One that stirred the heavens.

"Heavenly Spear Style." A whisper escaped him. "Convergence."

Chills crawled across Rui's skin as he leaped away at full speed, yet it was too late.

He had already been caught in his opponent's domain.

"Why can't I reach you?!" He gritted his teeth. WHOOSH!

Master Kaijin's eyes widened as his attack crashed into an empty image.

A feint.

"I can see your SOUL."

It was the last thing he heard before he died.

BOOOM!!!

An attack of extraordinary power struck his jaw, instantly knocking him out.

THUD

The domain ceased to exist as the man's unconscious body fell.

CRACK!

Rui crushed his skull with little effort.

It was the second Martial Master he had killed in the battle.

"Hmph, I guess they weren't wrong when they said you couldn't evaluate a Master's true power with instincts alone," Rui muttered. "I didn't think it was possible to overestimate them so much, though. What an idiot."

Had Rui not been trying to preserve his stamina, he could have just used his own domain against him and peppered him with sound attacks. The domain, pulling everything in with fierce pressure, would accelerate the attacks, causing them to grow stronger and inflicting serious damage on him.

In other words, he would be able to use the man's own power against him.

The only reason he went for a more time-consuming means of victory was because the Hypnomatrix and the SOUL System did not demand a lot of energy.

BOOOM!!!

Rui leaped away as several Sekigaharan Masters pounced on him the moment his battle ended.

"Tsk." He tutted as he swiftly formed predictive models on them with the Angel of Laplace. "Goddamned numeric disadvantage."

The Sekigaharans had more Martial Masters, which meant that they could choose to gang on any one or more Martial Masters.

And naturally, they chose Rui.

"Bring it on." A fierce smile cracked at the edge of his mouth. "It's time to grind for more experience."
