The pinnacle of technique, the beginning of the Dao (23)

Almost at the same time that Wu Peng deployed his [Barrier Domain] to pull Lady Bagui into his mental domain.

Li Boyang also appeared in the village with Jinjiao and Yinjiao, the two arriving almost simultaneously.

"Is it a barrier like the one Wu Xian uses?"

"No, this is the complete version. The barrier that Wu Xian used last time definitely wasn't the complete version."

After looking around, Li Boyang quickly figured out what had happened.

And judging from the fact that the surrounding villagers were not affected.

The great shaman who appeared here seemed to be different from the "shamans of the Great Xia" that Li Boyang knew.

"Barrier?"

"What kind of barrier could be so powerful?"

Yinjiao, who had also tilted his head and looked around but hadn't noticed anything amiss, asked this question.

In Yinjiao's mind, barriers were nothing more than a little trick for shamans to amuse themselves; they were not as sophisticated as Formation, nor as convenient as talismans.

Don't be too arrogant; learn to be humble.

"Anything that has survived to this day has its own advantages and strengths."

"Moreover, the ability to create barriers, unique to wizards, has been perfected to the pinnacle of magic over thousands of years."

The ultimate technique is the Way.

No one understood this better than Li Boyang.

The great Wu Xian like Wu Xian, having approached or even reached this level.

"This seems to be a barrier technique unique to the Great Xia?"

Just then, Jinjiao eyes inadvertently flashed with worry, spoke up.

In the shamanic system, although enchanting is a very common Witch Law, it does not mean that many people have mastered it.

On the contrary, if it weren't for those great shamans who dedicated themselves to the development of the tribe and were willing to sacrifice a great deal of their time and energy...

Ordinary shamans would never bother learning this kind of Witch Law, which offers little benefit to their own development.

However, the barrier they were facing was completely different from the barriers that Jinjiao had learned about.

Whether it's its ability to unfold freely, or its portability that doesn't require much external assistance...

All of this indicates that this barrier is different from ordinary barriers, and is very likely one of the barrier spells exclusive to the Great Xia Dynasty.

"The great shaman who is attempting to concoct an elixir of Elixir of Immortality..."

Even if it's just an unsuccessful Elixir of Immortality that seems to have serious side effects, they are still undoubtedly the most powerful sorcerers in the world.

"It would be strange if such a great shaman weren't a shaman from the Great Xia!"

With undisguised curiosity on his face, Li Boyang slowly stretched out his palm in front of the three of them.

"That old bastard Wu Xian hid himself quite well and ran away quickly to prevent me from learning this kind of barrier technique..."

"He didn't even fully deploy his barrier during the battle; he really went to great lengths."

"But now, let me see what the true nature of this barrier is!"

Before the words were finished, a crisp cracking sound suddenly rang out in the previously empty air.

Crack...

With visible cracks, a secret realm-like alternate dimension appeared before the three of them.

That was a realm composed of countless plants and trees.

A gigantic Immortality Tree could be vaguely seen supporting the sky and the earth, serving as the base of this barrier.

"Huh? It's actually a barrier that unfolds from itself?"

The deployment of a barrier, like Formation, requires a core and a diagram as support.

But this barrier is now created without any external assistance; it is supported by the person themselves.

Or to be more precise, the key element and diagram of this special barrier is the caster himself.

"Another form of witchcraft that uses the human body as a basis for modification, why don't I find it strange at all?"

I couldn't help but think of Xiao Yue, who had been transformed into a "living Witchcraft Incantation."

Li Boyang muttered to himself as he gently opened the Heavenly Eye between his eyebrows.

Unlike his previous battle with Wu Xian, Li Boyang was observing the barrier from outside this time.

Therefore, he can see the essence of the [Barrier Domain] more clearly.

Using the physical body as a foundation and faith as support, one transforms their inner vision and desire into tangible reality.

The [Barrier Domain] truly broadened Li Boyang's horizons, and even gave rise to many inspirations, which is enough to show its magical and mysterious nature.

"A Barrier Domain completely isolated from external influences, constructed entirely by its own beliefs..."

"Why does this sound so familiar? It's the personal version of the Divine Land Barrier, right?"

He examined every component of the [Barrier Domain] with great interest.

Li Boyang suddenly flipped his hand, and a lifelike eye appeared in the center of his palm.

This eye was created by Li Boyang using his Thousand Transformations Divine Ability, imitating his own Heavenly Eye.

Sizzle sizzle...

As the single eye in his palm slowly penetrated into the cracked crevice, Li Boyang saw every detail of what was happening inside the barrier.

This unique method of observation is far superior to simply using Heavenly Eye.

What is that?

While battling Wu Peng, Lady Bagui suddenly looked up at the sky.

Suddenly, a dense network of cracks, like a spider web, appeared out of nowhere, seemingly trying to tear the entire world apart.

Immediately afterwards, a giant eye squeezed its way into the barrier through the cracks, its gaze revealing undisguised curiosity and a desire to explore.

The moment he saw that eye, Lady Bagui even forgot to continue fighting.

Under the gaze of that enormous eye, Lady Bagui felt as if she were an ant trapped in a cage.

The sheer blatant curiosity and voyeurism are particularly unsettling.

"Is this the power of the Celestial Person?"

If Lady Bagui's feelings are so obvious, then the true master of the [Barrier Domain] must be even more aware.

Having also ceased his attacks, Wu Peng felt as if his body was being torn apart.

Wounds, just like those dense spiderweb-like fissures, gradually appeared on the surface of his body.

This is the price of bearing the barrier with one's own body—once the barrier is broken, he will suffer the same injury.

However, more dangerous for Wu Peng now than his physical injuries is the shattering of his Mind Aspect.

Willpower destroyed...

Faith and hope were taken away...

The courage to forge ahead has vanished...

These words, which were originally intended to describe, were now truly reflected on Wu Peng's face.

Although he was still the same person, Wu Peng's face showed the signs of old age, and he had no energy or spirit left.

More obviously, Wu Peng was not yet in dire straits, and his own strength had not been greatly affected.

But he couldn't muster the slightest intention to fight back or resist; he just stood there blankly, waiting to die.

As a result, the Immortality Tree that originally supported the [Barrier Domain] also began to wither rapidly at a visible rate.

This is perfect proof that the [Barrier Domain] was broken and he was utterly despondent.

In a sense, this is also a major reason why the great shamans of the Great Xia would never easily use [Barrier Domain] unless absolutely necessary.

More fatal than a decline in strength or physical disability is a breach in the spirit.

It is far more painful than killing them if a great shaman loses his will to be diligent, courageous, and forging ahead.
