I Can See Your Combat Power

The outermost layer of the tri-layer Red Cloud crystal barrier quickly showed cracks under the attack of the azure dragon spirits. The spiritual power controlling the Red Cloud crystals, which was usually a source of pride, seemed completely stripped away within the barrier. More frighteningly, after being enveloped into the Thousand Azure Wood Realm, Du Ting found himself unable to recover his energy—a terrifying experience that sent him into a panic. He turned hurriedly to the companions beside him, Du Wei and Du Ling, and said, “I cannot recover my energy in this Thousand Azure Wood Realm, what about you?”

“Neither can we.” The two replied in unison. Large-scale defensive spiritual arts like these were notoriously energy-consuming. Luckily, one could usually recover some energy after constructing the Red Cloud crystal barrier. But at this moment, they found the spiritual energies of heaven and earth filled with hostility and impossible to absorb, which meant that if a way to break the barrier wasn’t found before their dantian (energy center) was fully drained, they’d be sitting ducks.

Within this azure wood realm, Mi Yang’s spiritual power seemed practically limitless. Each azure wood dragon spirit could not reduce one’s spirit points by less than 10,000 damage. Through the red, crystal barrier, the six of them watched countless azure wood dragon spirits form on the barrier and violently attack the crystal barrier. The outermost crystal barrier was now full of cracks and on the verge of shattering.

“We need to find a way to break this Thousand Azure Wood Realm, or we’ll be stuck here until death.” As Du Ting spoke, his crystal barrier was the first to shatter. Exhausted, he panted for breath and turned to address Tang Luo, who still seemed calm within the azure wood realm.

For hundreds of years, due to the existence of the Red Cloud Skill, the warriors of the Du family had been very arrogant. They had always believed that if not for their limited population, they would have already made it into the core of Xiling. However, the emergence of the Xiao family dealt them a blow, and Mi Yang’s Thousand Azure Wood Realm shattered their arrogance completely. Du Ting no longer dared to view himself as superior. Despite having the highest cultivation in the room, he turned to Tang Luo for answers.

Du Ting’s inquiry drew everyone’s attention inside the barrier to Tang Luo, who had just dismissed his Undying Battle Body. Naturally, the Pride of Xiling would not disappoint them. He calmly stated, “Breaking this realm is not difficult. Attack it externally by concentrating force and breaking the whole realm. If you’re inside, find the Realm Heart and attack it. This Thousand Azure Wood Realm is not a real realm, it’s just a formation.”

The grand idea of the Thousand Azure Wood Realm was actually just a copycat. The art of drawing boundaries for realms was an exclusive trick performed only by those at the King Realm. The Thousand Azure Wood Realm that Mi Yang created was essentially a formation simulated by the divine wood’s bloodline. As long as it’s a formation, there will be a Formation Eye and a Formation Heart. The inner walls of the Thousand Azure Wood Realm are tough, but if you find and attack its Formation Heart, you can shatter the entire realm.

Upon hearing this, everyone felt invigorated. They were trying to figure out where the Formation Eye is when they heard Mi Yang’s voice echoing within the Thousand Azure Wood Realm: “Even if you can see that the current Thousand Azure Wood Realm is not complete, you absolutely won’t be able to break this barrier because the Formation Eye of this realm is me!”

The faces of everyone inside the crystal barrier changed. Mi Yang’s words clearly responded to their conversation, meaning that nothing could be hidden from him inside the Thousand Azure Wood Realm. This was undoubtedly bad news for those eager to find a way to break the barrier.

Mi Yang seemed to see their expressions and happily said, “This Azure Wood Realm is me, and so I am everywhere. If you can hit my soul, then you can break this realm. But can you find my soul?”

The highest state of self-annisomorphism is that each one can be real and each one can also be unreal. After abandoning his Divine Wood physical body, Mi Yang now existed in the Thousand Azure Wood Realm in the form of soul. He certainly did not believe they could find out where his soul was.

The morale that had just been lifted instantly dissipated once more. The two elders, Du Wei and Du Ling, lowered their heads in silence. Even Du Ting’s face darkened. Only the faces of Sun Jinfang and Du Sha remained calm.

As Tang Luo was about to speak while watching the precarious second layer of the crystal barrier, he heard Du Sha say, “Wait until the three elders’ barriers are broken, do not panic, I will transform into a Profound Venerable Statue to protect you.”

Upon hearing the name of the Profound Venerable Statue, the faces of the three elders of the Du family changed drastically. Du Ting telepathically communicated to Du Sha, “The Profound Venerable Ding is your visualization of divinity and the source of your soul’s fusion. If the Profound Venerable Ding is broken, you will definitely die! Why not let Sun Jinfang try first?!”

Du Ting naturally knew that his telepathic communication couldn’t escape Tang Luo’s ears. He did this because he didn’t want Sun Jinfang to hear. After all, he was not stupid, knowing that the Tang Clan’s reinforcements must already be en route. All they were lacking now was time.

Du Sha looked at the Great Elder without saying a word, only the firmness in his eyes was unshakeable.

Seeing that Du Sha had become stubborn, Du Ting turned around disgusted and stormed off to express his anger.

Sun Jinfang watched the suddenly changing scene with confusion. Nevertheless, he carefully communicated telepathically, “Gentlemen, with my God Light Sutra, I can locate Mi Yang’s soul, but I want to ask if any of you can withstand the Azure Wood Dragon Spirit attacks?”

As the second crystal barrier was shattered by the dragon spirits, the people within the barrier saw a glimmer of hope for the battle.

Du Ting, who had just turned around, was startled upon hearing Sun Jinfang’s telepathic communication. He turned back to gaze at the physician from Xiling, unbelieving, “Really?” Thinking that walls have ears, he carefully communicated telepathically, “Please consult with Master Sun and Du Sha.”

Sun Jinfang quietly nodded at Du Ting and then sent a secret message to Du Sha’s ear.

It’s not as amazing as it sounds. The human eye can see very little, so the cultivation of pupil techniques is especially important, especially in the medical field. Having a pair of ‘breaking-delusion’ eyes is almost a must.

The pupil technique developed from the God Light Sutra can distinguish between near and far, discern size, and examine spirits. It’s not difficult to find a wandering soul. However, Sun Jinfang, who has dedicated his life to the medical path, didn’t have any aggressive techniques and couldn’t resist the Azure Wood Dragon Spirits’ attacks.

In fact, everyone’s so confident about their secret communication have been heard by Tang Luo. If they just want to find the soul, it is even simpler for him. Because in this emerald-green barrier, there is a long string of numbers that keep moving. Surely, this is where Mi Yang’s soul is.

However, Tang Luo didn’t say anything because he felt that if Mi Yang could hear the conversation inside the crystal barrier, it wasn’t especially safe to communicate telepathically. Since the others had already planned to this point, he just hoped that he was worrying too much and that this plan could be successful.

When the last layer of the crystal barrier shattered, a ding (ancient Chinese vessel) made entirely of red crystals appeared, with three legs and two ears. The oval body of the ding, like an upside-down tortoise shell, was marked with many profound characters, which seemed to absorb one’s soul at a glance. Inside the ding were Tang Luo, the three elders of the Du family, and Sun Jinfang.
