Chapter 1275
[Immortal Realm Chapter] Star Martial Breaks the Seal, First Battle Against the Void Re
The moment that sound came out, everyone in the audience was shocked!
Everyone looked up and watched as a person rode the lightning and descended into the crowd with an airborne presence. With a single wave of his hand, he brought the remaining twenty-odd people into his domain, which also enveloped tens of thousands of Star Warriors, instantly changing the situation on the battlefield!
The Nine Heavens Thunder Pool trembled slightly, and the sound of crashing waves could be heard. The thunder liquid inside overflowed and poured down, transforming into countless dancing silver snakes of lightning that roamed among the crowd, wreaking havoc indiscriminately.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle
All that could be seen was a bright silver expanse, and the sound of electricity surged in everyone's ears. The rows of Star Warriors were connected, and all the technological devices they carried were subjected to electronic countermeasures, instantly paralyzing them on the spot!
The combination of technology and space weaponry is quite fragile to some extent, which is why space fleets are equipped with anti-jamming unmanned ships to prevent being electronically suppressed by the enemy in space warfare.
But this time they rushed forward, wanting a showdown between Star Martial and Immortal Path, who knew they would be hit right where it hurts!
His jet propulsion system malfunctioned instantly, and his energy protection module was also forcibly shut down. The exoskeleton armor was even more dangerous when it was conductive, and he was completely electrocuted.
Instantly, nearly half of the people's equipment malfunctioned, and the low-level Star Warriors, without technological assistance, became lambs to the slaughter.
As the tiny black dots fell densely like a heavy rain, the two newly arrived Star Martial Emperors were immediately startled. They looked at Lin Shan and realized that he was a bit unfamiliar. They wondered when the Immortal Dao camp had produced another Void Realm expert!
"Don't just stand there, you two. This person has only just broken through to the Void Realm, and his domain is only in its nascent stage. You two can easily take on one of him."
The other four shouted loudly, clearly fearing that their men would all be wiped out, urging the two to act quickly.
The two newcomers were relieved to hear that the other party was a virgin.
"You scared me to death! I thought there were some ancient monsters from some immortal civilization hiding in the Kongtong Realm. Turns out it's just a newly-brought-after kid who hasn't even consolidated his domain yet, and he dares to be so arrogant?"
"A rare lightning-type cultivator, capable of manipulating electric currents to disrupt magnetic fields. Let's discard the electronic equipment for now!"
The Star Martial Emperor could already physically traverse the void, but he still relied on some technological assistance. Upon seeing this, they all removed their equipment to avoid any trouble later.
Then, without hesitation, he rushed into the area!
"Good timing."
Lin Shan's eyes blazed with fighting spirit. He had just broken through and hadn't had a chance to put his Thunder Pool Domain into practice yet, so he wanted to test its effectiveness.
Rumble!!!
The moment the two stepped inside, they were instantly locked onto by the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool.
An indescribable sense of unease welled up within me, and at that moment every pore on my body contracted frantically—the ultimate warning of impending crisis!
They were on high alert and under great tension.
But what happened next was all bark and no bite.
A dark cloud appeared above both of them and began to unleash lightning on their respective targets. The lightning bolts were extremely small, like spitting, and they hissed continuously. After carefully blocking several bolts, they found that they were actually not painful at all!
"???"
The two Star Martial Emperors were stunned. They exchanged a glance, and then decisively threw punches at their heads.
But when the punches actually landed, it became clear that these two dark clouds were neither a real, objective entity in the real world, nor a spiritual entity; they were more like a projection floating in a virtual realm!
They tried several times, but the dark cloud was like a piece of chewing gum, following them wherever they went in the area, constantly spitting out small lightning bolts that bombarded them. Although they weren't very powerful, they were still disgusting enough.
"That's it?"
The two had never seen such a weak field before, and they felt a little strange, but considering that the other side was a novice who had just broken through, it seemed to be understandable.
Looking at the Star Warrior army that was swept up, those below the Star Warrior level couldn't fly and all crashed after the electronic interference failed. The Star Warrior King and Star Warrior Venerable were alright, but they were chased around by countless electric snakes, and everything was in chaos. It was clear that their combined power was quite considerable!
However, it wasn't enough for Star Martial Emperor.
Lin Shan, on the other side, wasn't flustered at all. He felt the power of the nascent domain and found it to be much better than he had imagined!
After all, a domain is essentially a status aura that buffs one's own side and debuffs the enemy; it's fundamentally a support tool used to widen the gap between allies and enemies. Specializing in combat techniques is called supernatural power, and the two should not be confused.
He simply opened his domain to see what level a pure aura could achieve, and it seemed to be acceptable, after all, it was only a prototype.
The area damage is negligible, but the mechanism of having a dark cloud hanging over the primary target and continuously raining down lightning is quite interesting!
I can sense that this is a special effect that comes with the Nine Heavens Thunder Pool, somewhat like a lightning tribulation lock. If I combine it with my own lightning-type divine power, what kind of improvement will it bring?
The two Star Martial Emperors opposite him had already flown forward. They ignored the Star Martial Army below and didn't even bother to exchange words with him. They directly attacked and pressed down!
The essence of Star Martial Arts lies in martial arts. Martial artists discover their own hidden treasures, continuously grow by cultivating their inner strength, and achieve their power through various training methods. This is equivalent to the combination of physical strength and technique. External things are merely icing on the cake; true power originates from within.
They possess boundless strength, every inch of their muscles is extremely compressed, a single punch can shatter space, a single kick can break mountains and rivers!
Just a few dozen miles apart, two fist imprints approached at a faint but extremely fast speed, transparent like shimmering water, silently and heavily striking Lin Shan.
Bang!Bang!
Lin Shan was facing a Star Martial Emperor for the first time and was not able to react for a moment. Based on past experience, he thought they would have to find a way to get close. Who knew that he could also attack a body cultivator from a distance?
He was immediately blasted hundreds of feet away, unable to deflect the powerful force. He thought to himself that he was in trouble and that he would become a sitting duck during this period of stun!
As expected, the two Star Martial Emperors did not rush to catch up. Instead, they flanked each other from the left and right, their eyes flashing with subtle light as they used special methods to calculate their opponent's trajectory and once again threw a punch into the void.
Lin Shan, who was in the distance, was hit by two more punches and was immediately knocked back dozens of steps.
"To deal with cultivators, you must gain the upper hand. If you are slow at the beginning, you will be slow at every step. Control the rhythm and get close to them, and that will be their death!"
The two were unhurried and clearly experienced, calculating their combos with unhurried speed. Their punches never missed, and they pressed forward relentlessly, closing the distance to more than ten miles in the blink of an eye.
Lin Shan was not injured at the moment, but his pupils were constricted and he couldn't move at all. This was the first time he had faced someone of the same level and been in such a passive situation!
Because he had just broken through to the Void Realm and did not understand the fighting techniques and combat mechanisms of this realm, he lost the initiative and was suppressed by the two Star Martial Emperors who had been immersed in the same level for a long time!
Fortunately, he was protected by the Heavenly Dao Spirit Cloud, which greatly increased his defensive capabilities after the breakthrough. The opponent's ranged attacks were obviously powerful but had no penetrating effect, causing him to be constantly stunned while being hit, leaving him no room to fight back.
As he was repeatedly knocked back, he tried to steady himself while taking the opportunity to find the trajectory of his opponent's punches.
The two men were calm and composed, with a clear division of labor. One flanked him from the left and the other from the right. After throwing a punch, the other man would move away, and the other man would take the opportunity to get closer. They would then take turns attacking him, and before he knew it, they were about to catch up with him.
Even now, Lin Shan still hasn't seen how the opponent's attack hit him. It was invisible and intangible, clearly involving the use of space!
The next moment, his hair stood on end. His two opponents were already several miles away, their powerful martial auras pressing down from the left and right. Their physical density was comparable to stars; if they hit him, he would definitely be unable to withstand it. In that case, one move would be enough to kill him on the spot!
While the fierce battle raged on, Ancestor Yanling and Ancestor Yuling caught a glimpse of this scene and both inwardly cried out in alarm.
"Oh no, we forgot to teach him how to deal with this! He's still using the mindset of a cultivator to fight!"
Several of the opposing Star Martial Emperors also caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of their eyes and immediately burst into laughter, some of whom seemed strangely familiar.
When the Ancestor of Spirit Control first ascended and broke through to the Void Realm, he fought against the Star Martial Emperor and almost lost because he was not used to it.
The Immortal Path and Star Martial Path of the Microcosm have been locked in a standoff for hundreds of thousands of years. They have long since thoroughly studied each other's restraining relationship and have clearly moved beyond the rhythm of civil war within the Immortal Path civilization. This is a contest between two major civilization systems. If they still follow the same approach as dealing with cultivators, they will fall into a mental trap and suffer a great loss!
Moreover, since there are no magical laws of heaven and earth, and no spiritual energy to borrow for escape, the Five Elements Escape Technique is completely ineffective here.
Lin Shan realized something was wrong as the distance between them grew closer and closer. His opponent was like a hunter approaching its prey, and Lin Shan's entire body was already injured by the penetrating force. He realized that he was no longer facing a cultivator!
In the critical moment, he was unable to move, but his mind quickly came to a head, and he decisively changed his approach.
"No, I can't understand their attack methods. The only way is to restore my mobility first, and then use the Star-Slaying Demon Eye!"
The celestial spiritual clouds surrounding him continued to shield him from the damage, but the resounding punches forced him to retreat involuntarily, like a ball being repeatedly knocked back and forth by his opponent.
But his eyes turned pitch black in an instant. As a supreme divine power of the pupil technique, it could finally be fully effective at the Void Transformation stage. In an instant, he saw through the void and clearly saw the opponent's true move.
The fist was thrown down, and the invisible force squeezed the void of the universe. Through the force of the block, it instantly formed a fist shape within the unseen spatial turbulence. Then, like a gravitational source, it gathered and attached spatial pressure, and then piled up into a sphere. It then accelerated to reach the target and predicted the landing point, and then suddenly jumped out of the spatial interlayer to strike!
Lin Shan, who was in the real world, was instantly blasted away!
"This is the Star Martial Emperor, a martial artist who can use spatial power???"
This scene completely overturned his understanding!
In the past, when he came into contact with Star Martial Arts, he could only cultivate up to Star Martial King, which is the Nascent Soul stage, before stopping. This was because it was not something that could be broken through easily. The Steel Furnace World and the Aether Federation were too shocking, and he was afraid of attracting attention.
Little did they know that when the Star Martial System was mastered, the Star Martial Emperor also inherited the ability to see into the void. He also had to use the unique methods within the system to master the void and apply this step to the development of his physical body, extending his melee attack range to hundreds of miles.
Otherwise, how could martial artists have fought against cultivators for hundreds of thousands of years?
Lin Shan, an ascension outsider who had just entered this place, naturally inherited the fighting style of the immortal cultivators from the celestial realm. Naturally, he was caught off guard and fell into a trap without knowing what was going on!
At this moment, the two had already reached within three miles of him, and immediately formed a pincer movement from the left and right. If they got any closer to his body and used their powerful aura to suppress him, he was destined to perish here!
But in the next instant, the opposing Star Martial Emperor swung his arm and threw a punch, a fist aura hidden in the spatial interlayer swooping down and striking Lin Shan just as it was about to leap out of space.
His eyes flashed like lightning, suddenly bursting with starlight. A tiny demonic sword shot out from his left eye, instantly shattering it!
Meanwhile, another sneak attack came from the other side, but he shot out a demonic sword from his right eye and pierced through it!
Their combo was broken, and they immediately regained the initiative.
Lin Shan immediately steadied himself, disregarding the need to defend himself, and directly activated his natal spiritual treasure, the Yuanjie God-Slaying Disc, causing the twelve flying knives to disappear in an instant.
The two Star Martial Emperors were shocked. They hadn't expected that just when they were about to succeed, this kid would catch his breath at the last moment.
Fortunately, the goal is almost achieved; all that's left is to go up and force the opponent into close combat.
But the next moment, he suddenly became alert, heard a whooshing sound on his mental level, and then saw a flash of bright light from a blade, instantly sensing something was wrong.
One of them immediately stopped to defend himself.
The Yuanjie Blades formed a blade array, constructing a bewitching illusionary realm that instantly enveloped the opponent, causing them to lose their mind and become immobilized on the spot!
Just as Lin Shan had never fought against a top-tier martial artist, none of the cultivators his opponent had encountered over the years were soul cultivators. Even though he knew that the spiritual realm was his weakness, he had no effective solution.
The other man was shocked to see this, but he did not stop. Instead, he turned around and pressed close to him, slamming down with great force!
Even at such close range, it is still impossible to see clearly with the naked eye. One must use the Star-Slaying Demon Eye to see through the void structure in order to predict the opponent's attack in advance.
thump, thump,
Both demonic swords were shattered, clearly demonstrating that their close-combat power was beyond what the Pupil Technique could withstand. The next moment, they slammed into Lin Shan, and the Heavenly Dao Spirit Cloud suddenly bounced off!
Both of them were sent flying backwards.
Lin Shan felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if something had shattered. He glanced at it and saw that it was the Deep Blue Yuan Armor. This Heaven-Reaching Treasure was only good at resisting supernatural magical treasures, but it was still insufficient against the Star Martial Emperor, which made him feel heartbroken!
However, the pincer attack had already been broken, so he immediately activated the Wind and Thunder Illusion, instantly unleashing nine Wind and Thunder Illusions that scattered in all directions.
The Star Martial Emperor opposite him snorted coldly, spread his five fingers and lightly tapped each one, breaking through the void in a few strokes, his finger strength was extremely fierce.
Lin Shan's main body had already created distance, returning to a point dozens of miles away.
The Yuan Realm God-Slaying Disc in his hand spun rapidly, and one after another, the Yuan Realm flying blades returned and were reinserted into the blade slots in the disc.
The other Star Martial Emperor regained his senses, his face slightly pale, but he was not seriously injured.
Clearly, the Soul-type Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure is still a bit lacking. It can handle the Nascent Soul stage, but against a Star Martial Emperor who is already comparable to the Void Realm, it can only be used to launch a surprise attack.
The two walked together, facing Lin Shan from a distance, and resumed their original positions.
This brief exchange, which appeared to outsiders as nothing more than a warm-up, was actually incredibly dangerous.
Lin Shan looked serious and put away his underestimation.
The Star Warrior of the Glimmering Universe is no less powerful than the Void Realm expert. With the two of them working together, they can actually create a deadly attack. This is the first time in his history that he has faced such a strong sense of pressure from someone of the same level!
