Distance Is Your Weakness

"That's right, but you realized it too late!"

Yun Feiyang arrived in front of the middle-aged man, looking down at him. "Arrogance comes with a price!"

"No, you're wrong. It's not too late to realize it now!"

Just as Yun Feiyang was about to finish him off, Mistgun interfered again. This momentary delay allowed the middle-aged man's entire body to sink down, enveloped by the soil. Then, the earth flowed, ultimately forming a giant over ten meters tall.

The giant was composed of mud and rock, its feet connected to the island.

"Haha... Now you can't hurt me!"

The middle-aged man's booming voice echoed from within the giant's body.

"Hey, hey, hey~ That's going too far. You start a giant the moment we disagree. Can't we just play nicely!"

"I have now merged with this island. Unless you have the ability to destroy the entire island in an instant, you'll never be able to hurt me again!"

Yun Feiyang curled his lips. "Oh really? How terrifying!"

This guy has such tenacious vitality. He's still able to move despite such severe injuries!

"Eight-Headed Serpent Control!"

Mistgun interfered again, controlling eight magical giant pythons that attacked from all directions!

Yun Feiyang dodged, but he had to face the giant's smashing fist!

"Die!"

Raising his hand, he unleashed a Whirlwind to block the giant fist. Yun Feiyang dodged again, but Mistgun's attack followed closely.

While dodging, he scratched his head in frustration. "I'd better deal with you, you troublesome brat, first!"

"Can't wait to kill your own companion? Come on, let me see you slaughter each other!"

"You're overthinking it. I don't believe your control has no weaknesses!"

"Slash!"

Yun Feiyang slashed behind Mistgun!

But it was useless. Nothing happened!

"It doesn't make sense. Shouldn't there be invisible threads controlling something?"

The middle-aged man laughed heartily. "Naive. My control is everywhere!"

"Blow it, why don't you control me?"

The Middle-aged Man fell silent, controlling the giant to smash around Yun Feiyang.

"It's not that you don't want to control me, but that you can't. I'm not wrong, am I?"

"So what? When your magic is depleted, it will be the time of your death!"

"Magic depleted?"

Yun Feiyang stopped in the distance and sneered, "Then watch carefully!"

He opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing in a large amount of air, which was converted into his magic.

"Heh heh... eating this makes power surge!"

"You... you damn guy!"

The enraged giant chased after him and started smashing wildly!

Yun Feiyang dodged and taunted, "Are you angry with shame? Do you think only you can cheat? Do you think only you know Lost Magic? My magic is not weaker than yours... no, it far surpasses it!"

"Impossible, my control magic is the strongest!"

"There is no strongest magic, only the strongest person!"

Yun Feiyang flashed behind Mistgun and subdued him, "And I've already discovered your magic's weakness!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! My control has no weakness!"

"Then watch!"

Yun Feiyang took Mistgun and soared into the sky!

Once in the air, Mistgun seemed to be freed from some kind of restriction and immediately sobered up!

"Sorry for the trouble!"

"It's fine, it's not me who's making a fool of myself!"

Mistgun was extremely embarrassed!

"Why? How did you discover it?"

The Middle-aged Man's questioning voice came from below!

"Isn't it simple? If your control was truly omnipotent as you claim, you would have already ruled the entire continent. Why would you hide here like a rat!"

"So-called omnipotence also has limitations, and that limitation is distance!"

Looking down, he could see a transparent round cover formed around the giant, filled with dense threads.

"A domain? Within this domain, you can control everything, but outside of it, you can't, right?"

The middle-aged man fell silent!

Yun Feiyang laughed heartily, saying proudly, "So-called omnipotence is nothing more than this!"

Mistgun inwardly marveled, What sharp insight. As a partner, he's truly reliable!

"So what if you discovered it? To defeat me, you have to get close to me. Any attack that enters my domain will be controlled by me. You can't do anything to me!"

The middle-aged man's voice held a hint of exasperation!

"Huh? Aren't you supposed to come after me? How can the omnipotent one say such discouraging words!"

"You..."

"Can't you control the wind? What? Is its power not enough to send this clumsy oaf up here?"

"If wind doesn't work, isn't there magnetism? If that doesn't work, aren't there gravity and attraction? Controlling them makes flight effortless!"

"No, no, surely not. You, who control everything, can't control these forces?"

Yun Feiyang taunted, "Your so-called control of everything, just like omnipotence, has its limits. It's like your domain – looks impressive but is useless!"

"Shut up! You shut up! I am omnipotent! I am the strongest!"

The middle-aged man, in his impotent rage, madly bombarded the small island, venting his frustration!

"Look, your exasperation makes you look just like a stray dog!"

"Stop being so arrogant, brat. Hiding in the sky, what kind of skill is that? If you dare, come down and fight me!"

"There's no need to come down, but I can still kill you!"

Yun Feiyang's eyes sharpened. Blood Spirit was raised high, signaling the prelude to a powerful move.

"Wait a moment!"

Mistgun stopped him, "Let me do it!"

"You? Can you?"

Mistgun's old face flushed, "To be controlled by the enemy and attack my partner, I must personally avenge this humiliation!"

"Alright, I'll back you up!"

"Thank you!"

Staring at the giant below, Mistgun laid out five magic staffs, which, with Yun Feiyang's help, floated in the air.

"Let me show you my strongest magic!"

"Magic?"

The Middle-aged Man scoffed, "Kid, magic is useless against me, don't you understand yet?"

"No, your so-called control is relative. If my magic's power exceeds your control limit, you still can't do anything about it!"

"Take this!"

"Sevenfold Magic Array: Void!"

Seven magic arrays appeared around the small island, surrounding the Middle-aged Man!

"Disappear!"

After a burst of intense light, he was gone. Truly gone. The Middle-aged Man, along with the entire island, had completely turned into nothingness!

Yun Feiyang's mouth hung open. "Holy crap, they were cheating, and you just pulled out a BUG!"

"Not bad, not bad, this is what the Strongest Candidate should look like!"

The Strongest Candidate's body went limp. If the wind hadn't been supporting him, he would have fallen.

"I just praised you, and you immediately lost your strength. How ungracious!"

Mistgun chuckled, "This move is still too much for me!"

"Then why did you go all out?"

"Because he almost made me hurt my Partner, Unforgivable!"

With that, Mistgun fainted!

"This unlucky kid, why push himself so hard!"

But he's very gentle, isn't he? A trustworthy Partner!

Yun Feiyang landed on the bow of the ship with Mistgun, surrounded by hundreds of rescued people.

"Benefactors, are you alright?"

"We're fine!"

"Let's go, we'll take you home!"

Yun Feiyang waved his hand, and a fierce wind howled, pushing the ship to sail at high speed!
