Wheel Rock Aspect
As soon as the Four-Sided Seal appeared, the Wheel behind Yuan Yu began to shake violently.
The level 75 Soul Power was still surging within his body, and the Rock Pattern had already drawn the surrounding earth elements towards him. The ground behind the mountain cracked continuously, and pebbles of varying sizes floated into the air, circling around the still incompletely formed shadow.
Tang San took two steps back, and the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's waists, pulling them out of the range of the Soul Power fluctuations.
Liu Erlong took a step forward.
"Don't disperse."
"I'm trying to figure something out."
"Just thinking about it won't help; we need to give it a purpose."
Yuan Yu glanced at the empty Wheel Axis in the center of the Wheel, then suddenly turned around and sent the Sun Wheel Blade back.
The handle is pointing upwards, and the blade is pointing downwards.
The Sun Wheel Blade stood upright again in the center of the Wheel, and the rays of light extending from the Rock Pattern immediately found their fulcrum. The Four-Sided Seal solidified from the bottom of the wheel, with a base nearly one meter wide and a surface covered with thick lines connected to the Rock Pattern.
It has not separated from the Wheel.
Half of it was still light and shadow, while the other half was covered by earth and stone, as if it had just peeked out from the Martial Soul.
Zhao Wuji stroked his chin. "A brick grew out of the knife?"
Yuan Yu glanced at him. "Teacher Zhao, you've seen rectangular bricks, but never square seals?"
"As long as it can hit people, does it matter what it's called?"
"It sounds expensive," Flender added.
Ning Rongrong squatted by the sidelines, peering at Yuan Yu's back for a long time. "It's different from Soul Tool. Soul Tool needs to have a physical form first, and then be driven by Soul Power. This seal grew out of the Wheel."
"So there's only half," Yuan Yu said.
The upper part of the imprint is relatively clear, while the lower part is still shifting in the yellowish-brown light. The edges sometimes take shape and sometimes break into fragments, and even the basic weight is unstable.
Dugu Bo walked to the side and swept a wisp of Soul Power across the edge of the image. The side that touched the Soul Power immediately sank several inches, and the floating stones on the ground also fell down.
"This thing isn't just hard," Dugu Bo said. "It can channel the force it absorbs into the ground. It's very strong in mountainous terrain, but it's hard to say how much of its power it will retain in the air or on water."
Yuan Yu used the Wind Pattern to support the image and tried to pull it upwards.
The shadow was barely a foot off the ground when the yellowish-brown light below it quickly faded. He could only retract the Wind Pattern and let it stick to the ground again.
"Practice how to use it on land first," Liu Erlong said. "You're not at the point where you need to fight at sea wielding a large seal yet."
Yuan Yu kept this question in mind.
The Rock Aspect depends on the ground, while the wind phase, if it appears in the future, should be more suited to the air. Each element can give birth to its own Artifact Aspect from the Wheel, but they will each go in different directions.
Tang San did not participate in their discussion; he stared at the Soul Power connection between the image and the ground.
"It's borrowing the earth element from the surroundings, but the source of your Soul Power is still within you. Try taking a step forward."
Yuan Yu took a step forward.
The Wheel moved with him, and the Four-Sided Seal rose from the ground, hovering half a meter behind him.
The second step can still be maintained.
As soon as the third step was taken, a piece of the image broke off at the edge.
Yuan Yu stopped immediately.
"Don't measure the distance yet." Flames rose from Liu Erlong's body. "Let's see if it can withstand the attack."
Her Seventh Spirit Ring didn't light up; she only used her first four Soul Skills. A crimson Fire Dragon shot out from between her palms, heading straight for Yuan Yu's chest.
Yuan Yu pressed down.
The image beneath the Wheel then fell to the ground.
The earthen-yellow light immediately spread to both sides, and the Four-Sided Seal blocked the Fire Dragon. The flames impacted the seal surface, producing a heavy explosion, and the entire back mountain shook.
The print surface was covered with cracks, but it did not break on the spot.
The Fire Dragon was stopped.
Zhao Wuji, standing to the side, was itching to join in. Before Liu Erlong could withdraw her Soul Power, he struck the other side of the seal with his palm.
"Old Zhao!"
Flender only had time to shout once.
The Powerful Vajra Palm descended, Four-Sided Seal sank backward. Yuan Yu tightened his arms, and the Rock Pattern on the Wheel rapidly brightened, sending the palm force into the ground along the four corners of the imprints.
The inkstone in front of him did not collapse, but the ground more than ten meters behind him bulged up continuously, and three millstone-sized rocks burst out of the soil.
Just after the third breath, the Four-Sided Seal transformed into earthen-yellow light spots and returned together to the Rock Pattern of the Wheel.
Zhao Wuji's bear paw landed on empty air, nearly straining his back.
Liu Erlong turned his head. "Did I tell you to do it?"
Zhao Wuji glanced at the cracked ground. "I was just trying to help him out, wasn't I?"
"Could you help me put the stones back in a bit?"
"OK."
Zhao Wuji answered quickly, afraid that if he was slow, he would get another beating.
Yuan Yu's chest heaved a few times.
It only lasted three breaths, yet the Soul Power was greater than that of using the Sunflower Dance twice in a row.
"Let's try the distance again." Tang San released his Blue Silver Grass, with a blade of grass standing up every ten feet.
After resting for a while, Yuan Yu condensed the Rock Aspect for the second time.
One zhang (approximately 3.3 meters), the shadow remains stable.
Two zhang in diameter, the Rock Pattern surface began to shimmer.
Even at three zhang (approximately 10 meters), the Four-Sided Seal can still fall, but their power is only 60% of what it was when they were close to the target.
After passing three zhang (approximately 10 meters), the shadow quickly faded.
Yuan Yu pulled the Sun Wheel Blade from the Wheel, and the imprint vanished instantly, not even lasting a moment.
He then deactivated Myriad Phenomena True Body, retaining only the Sun Wheel Blade in its normal state, intending to reactivate the Rock Pattern.
The seven-patterned wheel behind the blade only showed a blurry outline. The Rock Pattern lit up twice, but nothing materialized except for adding a few more grains of sand to the ground.
Rock Aspect can only be used on Myriad Phenomena True Body.
This result did not disappoint Yuan Yu. The Wheel had just entered its nascent stage, and it was able to bypass the fixed shape of the Sun Wheel Blade and condense into a different structure. This step had been successfully completed.
Tang San squatted down and touched the ground that had been cracked by the shadow.
"The knife is still the center of the entire Wheel. The Rock Aspect is merely an extension of the Wheel; it cannot stand on its own."
"Showing just a corner is enough." Yuan Yu withdrew his true form. "We'll gradually reveal it later."
He gave this change a name.
Wheel Rock Aspect.
Not counting it as a separate Soul Skill, it is the first Artifact Aspect that the Myriad Phenomena Wheel has developed. Currently, it is only a phantom image, far from the elemental Magic Treasure that Yuan Yu imagined.
Flender walked around the shattered ground and asked, "If this Rock Aspect formation were to solidify later, could it be sold?"
Yuan Yu replied, "Yes, we'll pin you down first, then charge other people admission fees."
Liu Erlong turned and walked down the mountain. "This idea is good."
Flender immediately changed the subject, urging everyone to return to the academy to pack their belongings.
After training on the back mountain ended, Flender brought news of the departure.
Half an hour later, the Shrek team gathered at the academy gate.
Ning Rongrong noticed that Yuan Yu had changed into a new White-Clad and casually asked, "What about the one Huo Wu gave you?"
"Dean Liu broke it."
Liu Erlong said from behind, "You were the one who crashed into the tree while driving your real body."
"You threw the tree here."
So remember to hide next time.
The group left Heaven Dou City amidst laughter and conversation, heading towards the Royal Hunting Grounds in the southwest.
As the convoy arrived outside the camp, another academy team was approaching from the opposite direction.
The school uniforms, with their black background and gold trim, are embroidered with the emblem of the Balak Kingdom.
The other party did not give way.
