The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 241: Use You To Break Through 1

Use You To Break Through 1 . . .

A woman's appearance, particularly her weight and waistline, were among the top concerns for any woman. Cha-Eun Xiao had managed to offend Wen-Ren Chu-Chu on both fronts, virtually inviting a beating with his comments.

Wen-Ren Chu-Chu had been harboring some jealousy earlier, though she hadn't found the right moment to voice her feelings. Now, however, she saw the opportunity to take her frustrations out on him.

Her attacks were swift as the wind and powerful as a storm. Employing her formidable spiritual power, she locked down the space around them. It was clear she intended to corner Cha-Eun Xiao, leaving him with no room to evade her blows.

In the initial stages of the brawl, Cha-Eun Xiao managed with ease. He didn't need to exert himself fully. One reason for his ease was his proximity to reaching the Grade of Tianyuan, which meant he was significantly stronger than before. Another reason was that Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's attacks, while impressive in the Land of Han-Yang, were relatively unsophisticated in Cha-Eun Xiao's eyes. He could effortlessly defend against her assaults, almost with his eyes closed. The Xiao Monarch had participated in countless battles and faced numerous formidable attacks throughout his life, granting him extensive combat experience.

Wen-Ren Chu-Chu, a young disciple of the Misty Cloud Palace, was still on her journey toward mastering her martial arts. Even though her martial arts were of exceptional quality, their effectiveness depended on the practitioner's skill. While Cha-Eun Xiao could easily counter Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's attacks, he wouldn't have been as confident if he were facing someone with the experience and expertise of Bing Xin-Yue.

Experience could make all the difference in martial arts battles. It was akin to the disparity between a seasoned warrior like Xuan Bing and Cha-Eun Xiao, who possessed equivalent strength. Xuan Bing, given her experience, could outmaneuver him easily.

Yet, within a short span, Wen-Ren Chu-Chu came to a realization. She understood that defeating Cha-Eun Xiao was a near-impossible task. Consequently, she altered her strategy. Waving her hand, she unleashed her spiritual power, forming a massive net that closed in on Cha-Eun Xiao from all angles.

This technique had an area of effect, shrinking the space within which Cha-Eun Xiao could move. Outwardly, she was using her superior spiritual power to constrict him.

"I may have an edge in cultivation," she thought, "and I'll use it to my advantage!"

With determination, she tightened her grip on her power. Her movements appeared deliberate but were deceptively swift. The spiritual net, resembling a spider's web, became an all-encompassing attack that surrounded Cha-Eun Xiao.

Cha-Eun Xiao's spiritual senses alerted him to the impending danger, and he recognized that something was amiss. He felt himself gradually slowing down as the powerful energy around him restricted his movements. The space he could maneuver within was rapidly dwindling. Despite the situation, Cha-Eun Xiao remained remarkably composed. His keen eyes carefully diffused the impact of Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's attacks, piece by piece.

While locked in combat, Cha-Eun Xiao focused on compressing the spiritual power within his dantian. His aim was to condense the energy to its minimal scale and then release it all at once. The force generated by this compressed energy had the potential to break down a portion of Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's spiritual net.

However, Cha-Eun Xiao possessed an even more potent option. He could employ both the gelid qi and the scorching qi simultaneously, creating a controlled explosion that would consume less energy while delivering a significantly more powerful impact. If he also utilized the Demonic Weapons in conjunction with this, he could obliterate the spiritual net entirely, even if Wen-Ren Chu-Chu had a higher cultivation capability.

Yet he chose not to take this route. Instead, he opted to continue compressing the energy and releasing it in bursts to create an area of effect. While this strategy wouldn't completely nullify the net's restraints, it would prevent them from becoming overwhelming.

Unbeknownst to Cha-Eun Xiao, Wen-Ren Chu-Chu welcomed his decision. She believed that the more he expended his compressed energy, the weaker he would become in the aftermath. She anticipated that he would eventually exhaust his energy reserves and be unable to replenish them. Her cultivation capabilities exceeded his, and she was confident that she could repair her spiritual net faster than he could destroy it. She patiently slowed down her attacks, intentionally goading Cha-Eun Xiao into bursting his energy a few more times, all while she bided her time for him to become fatigued. She looked forward to the opportunity to teach him a lesson once he was under the suppression of her spiritual net.

Wen-Ren Chu-Chu had resolved herself to this course of action, aware that restoring the net would demand more energy than destroying it. Nevertheless, she persisted in her strategy, keen on seeing Cha-Eun Xiao exhausted and helpless.

Undeterred, Cha-Eun Xiao remained calm. He continued to compress his energy, unleashing it repeatedly. Despite his gasping breath and the perspiration soaking his body, he refused to yield. He tenaciously focused on compressing every ounce of energy within him.

Observing Cha-Eun Xiao's evident exhaustion, Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's heart softened, prompting her to further ease the intensity of her attacks. She allowed him a brief respite, although Cha-Eun Xiao's response was far from appreciative. Instead, he voiced a barrage of complaints, referring to her as a "mad woman" and openly discussing her weight. He argued that he had merely spoken the truth and shouldn't be blamed for doing so. In his eyes, her waist had always been on the thicker side, and any recent increase was inconsequential.

This tirade only fueled Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's rage, causing her to launch another round of attacks with heightened killing intent. As she struck with renewed ferocity, Cha-Eun Xiao found himself occupied with defending against her relentless assaults. Despite the onslaught, he couldn't resist sneering and continuing his verbal assault. He insinuated that her anger stemmed from the shame of having her physical flaws exposed. He argued that while it wasn't her fault to possess an "unsightly" appearance, it became her responsibility when she subjected others to it. He insisted that facing the harsh reality was necessary, even if it was cruel, as it represented the will of the gods.

Wen-Ren Chu-Chu's fury reached new heights in response. Her anger was so palpable that it seemed to cause her hair to stand on end, and she showed no signs of fatigue. Instead, her attacks grew even more forceful as she channeled her rage into each strike.
