Battle erupted, and twelve figures shot forward at once, each locking onto their assigned target.
Su Wanqian and Zhao Yuanzu stepped forward first. The two Half-Step Divine Domain ancestors resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation headed straight for Hall Morgan and Barton Morgan.
Hall Morgan abruptly raised both hands, and the Rot Proto-Rule spread outward from him. Under its corrosive power, the surrounding air grew rotten and oppressive. The paving stones began to weather and crumble the moment they touched the Rot Domain, turning into fine grains of sand that scattered in the wind.
Su Wanqian remained expressionless as deep blue ice crystals spread from beneath his feet. The Absolute Cold Proto-Rule collided head-on with the Rot Domain, and the powers of the two utterly different Proto-Rules clashed fiercely in the center of the square. Ice crystals kept shattering under the erosion of Rot Power, while Rot Power grew sluggish and stagnant under the freezing cold.
Neither Half-Step Divine Domain ancestor could overcome the other, and neither could gain a clear advantage in the short term.
Barton Morgan threw his head back and roared. Dark red flames erupted from his body, forming a ring of searing flame domain.
He unleashed a punch, and his dark red flame Proto-Rule transformed into a roaring fire dragon that lunged straight at Zhao Yuanzu.
Zhao Yuanzu held his spear across his body to block. Dark gold lightning and flames exploded into a dazzling ball of energy at the point of impact, and the shock wave uprooted the trees on both sides of the square.
Though Barton's flames were fierce and violent, Zhao Yuanzu's Lightning Spear was precise and ruthless. Every collision cleaved the flames apart, and dark gold lightning darted constantly through the flame domain, forcing Barton to pull back his defenses.
