Chapter 12 Space
"boom"
The eerie youth was blasted away by the tentacles, leaving a horrific wound on his chest from which blood flowed incessantly.
But Jag showed no joy whatsoever.
An attack capable of killing an ordinary mid-level god only injured the strange youth.
"Such strong defense."
Jag's expression turned serious, and he pressed his advantage.
The eerie young man stared coldly at Juggernaut, a sinister glint flashing in his vertical eye between his brows, and then—
"Buzz"
Behind the strange youth, a gigantic beast phantom resembling a lion appeared, radiating seven-colored light, with a vertical eye on its forehead.
"The mythical beast Ni Suan!"
Jag's expression changed; he hadn't expected the strange young man to be a divine beast.
The Ni Suan also appears in the original work. Although it is not a particularly powerful divine beast, its innate supernatural powers are still quite troublesome to deal with.
At this moment, the strange young man was using the innate divine power of the Ni Suan, "Devouring Heaven"!
A powerful suction force acted on Jag, trying to suck him in.
The Ni Suan, also known as the Devouring Beast, possesses a terrifying suction power. A mid-level god alone cannot withstand this suction power, and if swallowed by the Devouring Beast, death is certain.
However, Jugger was not an ordinary mid-level god. He had already fused two profound mysteries and undergone a transformation in all aspects. Moreover, when he saw the illusory lion-like creature behind the strange youth, Jugger realized that the other party was about to use his innate divine power, so he immediately took action.
"call"
The "Jig" that was being controlled by the power of absorption suddenly dissipated, and another Jag appeared behind the strange youth, stabbing the strange youth in the back of the head with a short sword in his hand.
Shadow Clone Technique!
Jugger maintained his Shadow Clone Technique, and the moment the strange youth unleashed his innate supernatural power, he switched his true form into another clone, thus dodging the attack.
"Die!"
Jag held a black short sword, its cold blade aimed directly at the eerie youth's head.
"Whoosh"
Just then, an arrow shot out from the strange young man and headed towards Jugger.
"This is the God-Slaying Arrow!"
Jag's eyes widened.
The God-Slaying Arrow is a consumable item used for attack. It contains a poison refined by a high-ranking god of death, which can attack the soul. Ordinary mid-ranking gods who are hit by it have no chance of survival.
In the original story, Linley was hit by the God-Slaying Arrow when he participated in the Demon Trial. He was able to block it by using the "Pulse Armor" formed by the fusion of the profound mysteries of "Earth Element" and "Earth Pulse".
Although Jugger had also integrated two profound mysteries, in terms of defense, the Dark Law was far inferior to the Earth Law. Therefore, he dared not take it head-on. With a thought, he switched his true body into another clone.
"This guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve!"
Jag also found it tricky.
"A swift and decisive victory!"
He decided to stop hiding his abilities and charged towards the strange youth like a phantom once more.
The strange young man turned and fled, realizing he was no match for Juggernaut.
But with dozens of clones surrounding him, no matter which way he fled, Jag could instantly switch to the nearest clone.
"You can't escape!"
Jag thrust his sword at the eerie young man.
With nowhere to hide, the strange young man could only roar and throw a punch to meet the attack.
In their first encounter, he blocked Jag's sword with his fist, but this time, the outcome was different.
The short sword in Jag's hand was as black as ink, with a black vortex at its tip, as if it were devouring all light.
"Shadow Sword!"
This is a sword strike that combines the mysteries of "dark element" and "devouring". Jag has mastered the fusion of these two mysteries, and when he unleashes it, its power is several times greater than that of "Shadow Eight Directions", which is a preliminary fusion of the mysteries of "dark element" and "evil".
This is also Jag's strongest attack so far.
The sword tip pierced the eerie youth's fist, easily piercing through his flesh and bones, and then continued forward.
Jag's figure swept past the eerie youth, and the short sword in his hand pierced through the youth's head, shattering the soul within the youth's divine core.
The strange young man's corpse fell limply to the ground, and Jeg pocketed his divine essence and spatial ring.
"This guy must have a lot of wealth in his spatial ring," Jag thought to himself.
Poisonous fog and God-Slaying Arrows are both expensive items that ordinary mid-level gods cannot afford, which shows that the strange young man must be quite wealthy.
However, this was not the time to take stock of his spoils. Jugg put the items into his spatial ring and then continued fighting.
The competition is not over yet, so we cannot let our guard down.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Jag noticed a change in the roulette wheel in his mind.
Some faint silver threads appeared on the surface of the roulette wheel.
These silver threads are extremely agile, moving and weaving between the eleven sections of the roulette wheel.
The eleven sections of the roulette wheel each represent a set of laws and rules, clearly distinct from one another. Yet, these silver threads seem unrestrained, moving freely between the sections.
"What is this?"
Juggernaut was filled with doubt and uncertainty. He instructed the Dark God's avatar to remain vigilant and continue fighting outside, while the main body and other divine avatars, suspended in the Sea of Souls, studied the changes in the roulette wheel.
This roulette wheel is located deep within Jag's soul, and can be sensed by both the original Jag and his other divine avatars.
Jag sensed the silver threads and discovered that, like other laws and rules, they could be comprehended.
"Could it also be some kind of law or rule? But there are only eleven laws and rules in the Panlong world, where would a twelfth come from? Wait, could it be..."
Suddenly, a possibility occurred to Jaeger.
"Could this be the law of space?"
The Panlong World also has spatial and temporal laws. However, because the Panlong World is only an appendage of the Hongmeng Universe and is not as stable as the main universe, the spatial and temporal laws cannot be cultivated in the Panlong World. They can only be used to some extent through innate supernatural abilities.
The Ni Suan's innate divine power "Devouring Heaven" also contains a trace of spatial laws, because the Ni Suan has its own space inside its belly. When it uses its innate divine power "Devouring Heaven", it sucks its opponent into its own space and then kills them.
"Just now, I was hit by his innate divine power. Could it be that the spatial laws contained in his innate divine power appeared on the roulette wheel like this?" Jage guessed.
"I can comprehend and cultivate other laws and rules as long as they appear on the roulette wheel. I wonder if the laws of space will work."
Jag was intrigued and immediately had his main body and other divine avatars try to comprehend the spatial laws on the roulette wheel.
At the same time, the pink toxic fog had been completely cleared.
Jag's dark god avatar surveyed the entire arena and found that only five or six hundred people were still alive.
There were about a thousand people at the start of the competition, and about a hundred of them perished in the melee.
Later, the strange youth released poisonous mist, and Jeger took the opportunity to kill dozens of people. The strange youth himself also killed many people. In addition, there was a white-robed youth with considerable strength, and many mid-level gods fell at his hands. In addition, there were those who died from fighting each other due to the effects of the poisonous mist. In total, four or five hundred mid-level gods had fallen.
