Unlimited Void for 0.2 Seconds

Xia Yuan was about to face off against Superpowered Boy's team, and the tension was through the roof!

The number of viewers in the live streams run by the various media outlets at North Sichuan Spirit Contract Master Academy kept climbing!

Every stream had over a hundred thousand viewers.

Comments flooded the screen.

At that moment.

At Gardenia Spirit Contract High School in the Great Xia Capital, the top seed had already been decided!

Luo Ziyan held her phone, humming a little tune as she watched the stream:

"I can't believe Shiyu has an SSR now, and such a powerful, handsome card character, too..."

"Ah..."

"I'm so jealous. I want a husband Contract Spirit like that, too!"

She turned to the woman beside her, who held a massive demon blade. "It'd be nice if you were a handsome man, too, Demon Blade Princess."

The female Contract Spirit's blood-red eyes held a lonely, gloomy look. She replied quietly, "Sorry."

She was tall and slender, with skin as pale as snow and delicate features.

Her thick, deep-purple hair was tied high, falling all the way to her ankles.

Her red floral kimono brought out her alluring, graceful figure, though she held an enormous sword nearly as tall as she was.

She was a breathtaking beauty, yet radiated a murderous aura!

Luo Ziyan laughed.

"I'm just kidding!"

"But Shiyu's SSR is really strong. You're both SSRs, so who do you think is stronger?"

"I hope they do well, so we can meet up in the Great Xia Capital and have a proper duel!"

"But I think you'd definitely win, Demon Blade Princess!"

Demon Blade Princess stayed silent, quietly watching Xia Yuan on the phone screen.

She was curious, too. As SSRs, which of them was stronger?

Gardenia Spirit Contract High School's selection process was simple and brutal. They took the top 50 students on the school's strength rankings and threw them into a free-for-all.

The last ten standing would represent the academy!

But because Demon Blade Princess had slaughtered everyone on her own, the free-for-all had lost all value as a test.

She had cut down every Contract Spirit, and in an incredibly short time...

Watching the stream, Luo Ziyan suddenly grew excited.

"Oh, it's starting!"

"Come on, fight!"

"Let's see what other skills this SSR called Xia Yuan has!"

In the arena.

Xia Yuan glanced at the opposing team, made up of a child, a woman, and an old man, and rubbed his neck. He decided to let them make the first move.

They didn't hesitate.

Shadow Sister stamped her high heel, and the shadow beneath her suddenly branched out, racing across the ground toward Xia Yuan.

Xia Yuan saw it and dodged backward. The old spellcaster's eyes flashed as he murmured, "Hollow and Weaken."

The next moment, a yellow cage appeared around Xia Yuan, trapping him. A feeling of weakness followed, sapping his speed and strength.

A Cursed Technique!

Another ability that directly affected its target. Limitless Technique couldn't stop it.

The instant Xia Yuan slowed down, the branching shadow caught up with him.

In no time, he was unable to move.

Heh...

Are you Shikamaru from Naruto or something?

Their abilities just happened to all be mysterious in nature. Limitless Technique couldn't defend against them.

Shadow Sister formed Hand Seals and smiled seductively. "It worked. His defense really does have limits. It's probably not a barrier that blocks everything. It can't stop abilities like ours!"

Han Guang was greatly reassured. It seemed his three Contract Spirits just happened to counter Xia Yuan's abilities. The goddess of fortune was on his side!

The little boy burst into laughter.

"Xia Yuan, you were too careless!"

"We've won!"

He made a squeezing motion with both hands toward Xia Yuan. "I'm going to crush you to death!"

The old man beside him spoke again. "Increase and Amplify."

Red light flared around the boy, greatly amplifying his superpowers!

But before he was restrained, Xia Yuan had already formed the Hand Seals for Domain Expansion!

The whole arena was stunned!

The Demon King had been restrained. Was he about to be defeated?!

Everyone's eyes widened. Their breathing stopped as they stared at the arena, afraid to miss a single moment.

Mo Shiyu couldn't help feeling nervous, but when she saw Xia Yuan's familiar hand sign, she immediately relaxed.

She knew Xia Yuan had already won this fight!

Just as the boy was about to unleash his power, Xia Yuan grinned and spoke first.

"Domain Expansion..."

"Unlimited Void."

A black, empty barrier spread out from him at incredible speed, covering the entire arena and engulfing the boy, Shadow Sister, and the old spellcaster.

The whole crowd erupted in an uproar. No one knew what had just happened.

They couldn't see what was happening inside the black barrier, either.

But the next moment, the black barrier quickly faded away.

The audience could see what was happening in the arena again!

The three who had been about to attack Xia Yuan—the Superpowered Boy, Shadow Sister, and the old spellcaster—were standing there like fools, completely motionless.

Xia Yuan easily freed himself from the shadow's hold and began forming Hand Seals at an unhurried pace.

"You want to play control skills with me?"

"A few minutes is more than enough for me to kill you."

That's right.

Xia Yuan had used Domain Expansion for 0.2 seconds!

He had to open and close the Domain over a vast area in an instant.

He hadn't dared to try this before because he wasn't very familiar with Satoru Gojo's template yet. It was difficult to perform a Domain Expansion with such precision.

But ever since he had broken through, everything had changed.

Unlimited Void for 0.2 seconds could flood the brains of living beings inside the Domain with half a year's worth of useless information.

In the world of Jujutsu, it could paralyze Special Grade Cursed Spirits for over five minutes and ordinary people for two months...

And five minutes was more than enough time for Xia Yuan to kill the three of them countless times.

And besides.

This kind of Domain Expansion had plenty of benefits. For example, it saved some spiritual energy.

Everyone stared at the three Contract Spirits standing motionless in the arena, utterly bewildered. No one knew what had happened!

The battle footage of Xia Yuan that had gone viral online didn't include a Domain Expansion.

The crowd erupted all at once.

"What happened? Why aren't those three Contract Spirits moving?!"

"Xia Yuan! It must've been that thing the Abyss God just said, whatever 'Domain Expansion' means. What did he do?!"

"That black barrier was so huge. Could it have been Xia Yuan's ultimate move?!"

"A control-type ultimate move?!"

"Holy crap, the Abyss God has so much firepower, and you're telling me he's actually a team-control-type Contract Spirit?"

"..."

Han Guang was even more confused. He had no idea what had happened.

The tables had turned far too quickly.

Just a second ago, he'd been popping champagne!

Han Guang shouted anxiously.

"Boy!"

"Shadow Sister!"

"Old Spellcaster!"

But the three Contract Spirits didn't respond at all. They remained frozen in place.

Xia Yuan aimed his finger, gauged the angle, and picked a spot. "Mm, they're in a straight line."

Since they were SRs, he'd show them a little respect and fire off a Hollow Technique: "Purple"!

Normally, after a Domain Expansion, Cursed Techniques couldn't be used, and the user entered a state of Cursed Technique burnout.

But Xia Yuan had already discovered that this didn't happen to him after a Domain Expansion.

It was probably thanks to the Contract Spirit's special spiritual body!

Cursed Technique burnout was actually a protective mechanism of the body. But spiritual bodies were different; they only used spiritual energy, so they seemed to need no protection.

This trait freed Xia Yuan from the restrictions of Cursed Technique burnout.

Now he could use his skills as freely as he pleased!
