Annihilation Blade Shadow! The Final Test
"Woo!"
The Giant Tusk Beast leader, being watched, cried out uneasily.
Its innate sense of danger told it that it was now in crisis.
But after scanning its surroundings, it found nothing suspicious, which made it even more uneasy.
"Ang ang ang~"
Seeing their leader's restless unease, the other ordinary Giant Tusk Beast stopped and began to guard their surroundings.
"His alertness is quite good." At this moment, Yang Yu was tens of kilometers away from the Giant Tusk Beast, and he used the fluctuation of the Time Law to conceal his soul aura, making it impossible for the Giant Tusk Beast leader to detect him.
This is a little trick that Yang Yu's Zhuliuyin Clone accidentally figured out while comprehending the Time Law, and it seems to be working quite well so far.
After briefly testing the move named 'Soul Concealment', Yang Yu no longer hesitated. He directly activated the Essence of Speed of the Lightning Law and then used 'Time Acceleration', instantly reaching the maximum speed.
Tens of kilometers in the blink of an eye!
"Waaaaa!!!"
Yang Yu, who was traveling at high speed, no longer concealed his aura, and the Space Fluctuation caused by such speed would make him easily detectable by the Giant Tusk Beast.
Sensing something amiss, the Giant Tusk Beast leader immediately unleashed its full speed, attempting to break free of the lock.
Annihilation Mystery!
However, even with its full speed unleashed, the Giant Tusk Beast, which was only at the Universe Level 1, could not escape Yang Yu's lock-on.
Yang Yu, who had arrived several hundred meters in front of the Giant Tusk Beast leader, had a cold look in his eyes, and a sense of Annihilation Mystery was gathering in them.
In an instant, a phantom Soul Blade Shadow flew out and pierced the Giant Tusk Beast leader's head with unparalleled speed.
This is another Soul Attack Ultimate Move Yang Yu has recently developed:
"Annihilation Blade Shadow!"
"Awooo!!!"
This illusory Soul Blade Shadow instantly invaded the Consciousness Sea of the Giant Tusk Beast leader.
It's eerie.
This Illusory Blade Shadow did not tear apart the opponent's Soul Defense layer by layer like the profound Judgment Profundity, but instead Annihilation Mystery the opponent's Soul Defense layer by layer in an incomprehensible way!
It's as easy as water seeping through gauze.
Under the Annihilation Profundity, the Giant Tusk Beast leader's Soul Defense was as porous as gauze!
Almost without any damage, the Illusory Blade Shadow, carrying the Annihilation Profundity, struck directly at the soul of the Giant Tusk Beast leader!
Visible to the naked eye.
The soul of the Giant Tusk Beast leader is being Annihilation Mystery!
The agony of his Soul Annihilation drove the Giant Tusk Beast leader into a frenzy, its massive hooves stomping wildly on the ground, its two giant fangs trembling incessantly.
This is a sign of extreme pain.
"Ang ang ang ang!!!!"
Seeing their leader in such pain, the other Giant Tusk Beast glared angrily at the culprit in front of them.
His small eyes were filled with rage, and he roared as he charged forward, eager for revenge.
Seeing the Giant Tusk Beast charging towards him, Yang Yu simply smiled faintly, his eyes flashing with Illusory Blade Shadow.
The charging horde of Giant Tusk Beast fell one after another.
An ordinary Giant Tusk Beast, merely at the Peak Star Level 9, didn't even have the chance to resist the Annihilation Blade Shadow.
Less than a second.
The powerful soul of the Giant Tusk Beast leader was finally Annihilation Mystery; its screams ceased, and so did its life force.
Realizing their leader was dead, the remaining Giant Tusk Beast went completely berserk, charging towards Yang Yu with bloodshot eyes.
Standing in the air, Yang Yu saw the utterly berserk Giant Tusk Beast, but his expression remained unchanged; only the Annihilation Blade Shadow bursting from his eyes grew increasingly dense.
For a moment, the corpses of Giant Tusk Beast kept falling from the sky, like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
Only when the Giant Tusk Beast behind realized that everything was in vain did they scream and flee.
Seeing the fleeing Giant Tusk Beast, Yang Yu did not give chase.
"Although the Annihilation Blade Shadow's attack is bizarre and can ignore most Soul Defense, it can only withstand attacks for a short time if the opponent's soul is already strong. It's more direct and decisive than the Soul- Soul-Splitting Slash, which contains the Judgment Profundity, to shatter the opponent's soul."
Yang Yu frowned as he recalled the battle he had just fought.
The soul of the Universe Level 1 Giant Tusk Beast was actually nearly as strong as Yang Yu's soul, but it could still withstand the Annihilation Blade Shadow for almost a second.
Although the opponent completely lost the ability to resist in that instant and was plunged into the absolute agony of Soul Annihilation, Yang Yu was still somewhat dissatisfied that it took so long to completely destroy the opponent.
In a real life-or-death battle, countless changes can occur in a single second.
Clearly, Soul-Splitting Slash is more practical at this stage.
Directly employing the Judgment Profundity to shatter all of the opponent's Soul Defense, and then tearing the opponent's soul apart with unstoppable force!
Faced with such a domineering and violent Soul Attack, the opponent either has to withstand it or die instantly!
The entire process won't take more than one ten-thousandth of a second!
Simple and straightforward.
However, the Annihilation Blade Shadow also has its advantages.
That means it can penetrate the opponent's Soul Defense, leaving them defenseless.
These two Soul Attack can be used in combination.
Moreover, he has only grasped most of the Annihilation Profundity, and is far from reaching the attack limit.
Overall, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
After summarizing, Yang Yu looked down at the plain below piled with the corpses of tens of thousands of Giant Tusk Beasts. With a thought, he grabbed the corpse of the Giant Tusk Beast leader and threw it into his World Ring to serve as snacks for Zhuliuyin Clone.
Consuming the corpses of these Fierce Beasts at the Universe Level or above is also quite beneficial to the evolution of Zhuliuyin Clone.
They sped along the road.
Yang Yu returned to the campsite. At this time, apart from Jarvis, who was on duty, everyone else was resting and recuperating in their tents.
The intense data collection work over the past two weeks left them all exhausted.
Back inside the tent.
Yang Yu then began to refine the shortcomings of the 'Annihilation Blade Shadow'. After perfecting it once, Yang Yu continued to immerse himself in the Law Ocean to cultivate.
The next day arrived in the blink of an eye.
Yang Yu got up and went outside the tent, where Fengling Yue and the others, who had fully recovered, were already waiting.
"Everyone's in good spirits, so let's head out."
"Yes, Master!"
They then packed up the tents and flew eastward.
That's the closest area where the Storm Beast are active, but it's still tens of millions of kilometers away. Yang Yu plans to travel for a while, and once there's no further training effect, he'll directly pilot his spaceship there.
Above the vast and boundless Shilan Plain.
Yang Yu and his group traveled in a single file.
In order to take care of Fengling Yue and the others, Yang Yu's burst speed was not fast.
Looking down at the examinees who were still diligently collecting Shilan Crystal, Yang Yu didn't have any other thoughts. He withdrew his gaze and prepared to continue on his way.
Just because Yang Yu has no ideas doesn't mean others don't.
At that moment, a tall young man with the North Dragon City insignia on his chest looked up and saw Yang Yu and his group swaggering away from the Core Region, heading straight for them.
With his quick wit, he immediately realized that Yang Yu and the others must have collected enough Shilan Crystal.
"Big brother, we've got some fat sheep!" The tall young man Berens, immediately informed their captain via the team voice chat.
"A fat sheep?" Captain Hagwen asked immediately.
At this moment, he was supervising his squad, along with members of another squad Shilan Crystal in the Core Region ahead.
As for him, such a dangerous task was naturally left to his subordinates.
"Yes, but there are quite a few of them, nine of them!" Berens said. "They're about to fly right past us. Should we make a move?"
"Nine people," Hagwen pondered for a moment, "Make our move!" Now that the other party had left, they must have collected at least twenty or so Shilan Crystal. And Hagwen now numbers a full seventeen!
Moreover, each of them is an elite student who has undergone numerous rigorous tests!
Hagwen was one of the best among them, and now that they had the advantage in numbers and believed they were strong enough, there was no reason for them not to make a move.
Hagwen immediately called all the team members over in the squad voice chat.
The others knew that a fat sheep was passing by; as long as they could snatch the Shilan Crystal from the other person, they wouldn't need to risk collecting Shilan Crystal themselves.
In less than a minute, Hagwen had gathered all his teammates.
By this time, Yang Yu and his group had flown to within a few kilometers of them.
"Attack!" Hagwen shouted, then drew his weapon and charged towards Yang Yu and the others.
"Yes, Captain!" Berens and the other sixteen men drew their weapons and followed Hagwen into battle.
"Master, look, it seems someone is trying to ambush us," Fengling Yue warned.
"Ignore it, I'll take care of it," Yang Yu said calmly.
"Yes, Master!"
Seeing Yang Yu's calm and composed demeanor, Fengling Yue felt a surge of admiration.
The distance of several kilometers was covered in a mere few seconds by the explosive speed of Star Level 9 expert, who arrived a kilometer ahead of Yang Yu and his group.
But before Hagwen and his group could close the distance and attack, Yang Yu's eyes turned cold, and instantly seventeen 'Annihilation Blade Shadow' shot towards the seventeen people a thousand meters away.
"What???"
Seeing that Yang Yu, who was only at the Star Level 9, could release Mental Force attack that could traverse a distance of a thousand meters in the Shilan World, was astonishing.
Hagwen's heart skipped a beat; she immediately sensed something was wrong.
But it was too late!
Soul Attack are already extremely fast, not to mention that Yang Yu also used 'Time Acceleration' on them.
The attack speed will be even faster!
Almost the instant Hagwen sensed something was wrong, the Annihilation Blade Shadow entered his Consciousness Sea.
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Hagwen screamed several times before completely losing his life force and falling from the sky.
As for the others, some didn't even have time to scream before their souls were completely Annihilation Mystery.
They looked like a menacing group, but were instantly killed by their master with just a glance.
Fengling Yue and the others were filled with envy and admiration.
Jarvis skillfully stepped forward to clean up the battlefield.
A moment later.
"Master, these people are trainees trained by forces in North Dragon City. They don't have anything valuable on them, but they do have more than ten Shilan Crystal."
"Let Ling Yue keep all these things. When we get back, we can give them to the Planetary Level slaves." Yang Yu glanced at the equipment; it was indeed all junk.
"Yes, Master!"
Fengling Yue packed away her equipment, and then the group continued their journey by flying.
For the next month or so.
Yang Yu and his group crossed the Shilan Great Plain.
During this period, Yang Yu's Zhuliuyin Clone successfully cultivated to the Peak Star Level 9, and was not far from breaking through to the Universe Level.
Moreover, his will also continuously strengthened during this period, approaching the Will Strength of a Peak Domain Lord Level 9.
However, Special Life face many limitations in breaking through their limits. Even if their Law Realm and Will Strength have already met the requirements, they still need to wait for a suitable opportunity.
Yang Yu wasn't in a hurry, so he let Zhuliuyin Clone calmly comprehend the Time Law within the World Ring, and also study the various Secret Technique in the Inherited Memory.
As for a breakthrough, it will happen naturally.
Over the past month, Yang Yu and his group have experienced many battles, not only against various Fierce Beast, but also against trainees trained by other forces.
Most of the members of these sizable groups have ulterior motives, always thinking about using their numerical advantage to ambush and kill others.
However, Yang Yu wouldn't tolerate them. He would either unleash the Annihilation Blade Shadow to wipe them all out in one fell swoop, using them to test his progress in comprehending the Annihilation Profundity.
Or we could let Fengling Yue and the others practice.
Through a series of battles, Yang Yu's understanding of the Annihilation Profundity has become increasingly refined. Several days ago, he had already reached the limit of his understanding of the Annihilation Profundity, and was only one step away from fully comprehending it.
Even the Annihilation Blade Shadow, a Soul Attack technique, has been greatly improved.
The speed at which it kills Star Level 9 enemy is already comparable to the Soul-Splitting Slash infused with the 'Judgment Profundity'.
However, it still can't match the speed of killing Universe Level Fierce Beast with the Soul-Splitting Slash, but it is still very fast, only needing one-hundredth of a second to completely Annihilation Mystery the soul of Universe Level Fierce Beast.
This kill speed has improved significantly compared to before.
Moreover, the Annihilation Mystery of the enemy's soul is becoming increasingly efficient, and when combined with the Judgment Profundity, the practical effect is even better.
Moreover, after this period of battle, Yang Yu has become more and more proficient in controlling the Thunder God Weapon, and he is not far from mastering the Third Form of the Human Original Body!
Indeed, real combat is the fastest way to improve one's skills.
"Master, the Wailing Mountain Range are just ahead, the most dangerous place in the Shilan World, according to legend." Fengling Yue stopped and said.
"Let's set up camp here tonight, and tomorrow we'll venture into the Wailing Mountain Range to see just how dangerous they really are," Yang Yu said.
The group then set up their tents and began their shifts in the previous order.
Nothing happened that night.
At daybreak, Yang Yu gathered everyone and set off towards the Wailing Mountain Range.
This mountain range is so vast that even crossing it would take nearly 100,000 kilometers.
There were countless dangerous places and countless powerful and Fierce Beast along the way.
Compared to these, hunting Storm Beast seems much simpler.
Entering the densely forested mountains.
Yang Yu continued to walk at the front, while the meticulous Jarvis walked at the very back.
The group remained divided into small teams, each several hundred meters apart, as they continued their journey.
"The number of powerful Fierce Beast in this Wailing Mountain Range is far greater than in the Dark Forest, Sunset Mountain Range, and Pale Highlands we've passed through before. Everyone must be careful and on guard."
Yang Yu said loudly.
"Yes, Master!"
Having come this far, Fengling Yue and the others have undergone enough trials and tribulations.
Once they crossed the Wailing Mountain Range, Yang Yu planned to use the spaceship to travel the rest of the journey.
Anyway, I've already experienced everything I needed to experience, and I've already exceeded the goals I set before coming here.
Having overcome this final perilous situation, one can say that they have essentially experienced all the trials in the Shilan World.
