Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 553
Chapter 553: Purple Runic Demon Eyes, Runic Enigma, Are You Fast Enough To All Of Them?
The countless runes filled the surrounding skies with gorgeous bursts of light. Everyone at the scene was dazzled by that extraordinary battle.
Soon, the battle between Chu Kuangren and Zi Wuji grew more intense. From Zi Wuji’s side, all sorts of rune techniques were continuously deployed.
However, it was a shame that all Chu Kuangren did was stand still, and he could easily disperse and repel his opponent’s attacks with ease.
“Spatial Cessation Rune!”
Zi Wuji channeled his spiritual power, forming a gigantic mysterious rune in the air by intertwining several silver-white runic lines. When the spatial rune appeared once more, Chu Kuangren’s surrounding area was immediately locked in place.
Following that, countless more runes with overwhelming might were sent towards Chu Kuangren.
Upon seeing this, Chu Kuangren lifted his arm to form a giant large runic sword, slashing the Spatial Cessation Rune into pieces.
“Is that the best you can do?”
Chu Kuangren uttered. With a signal from his spiritual thoughts, a gigantic rune immediately appeared above Zi Wuji’s head, and it crashed down upon him with the weight of a thousand mountains.
It was the Crushing Mountain Rune!
Zi Wuji rapidly cast several green runes against the incoming attack, creating a terrifying storm that swept towards the Crushing Mountain Rune.
The moment the two attacks collided, the storm dispersed and the Crushing Mountain Rune disintegrated.
“Hmph, I’m just getting started. The real show begins now!”
Zi Wuji chuckled as a strange purple light lit up in his eyes.
Surges of spiritual power poured out as countless mysterious runes gathered in the air. Each of them then transformed into pieces of runic swords.
They were the same runic swords that Chu Kuangren had been using earlier!
“Oh, copying my runic swords with those eyes, huh?”
Chu Kuangren uttered lightly. Having fully analyzed Zi Wuji with his Eye of Revelation earlier, he already understood all of his opponent’s techniques and attacks.
“You have keen sight. These Purple Runic Demon Eyes can indeed copy any runes I see. With these eyes of mine, all of your runes are now mine.”
Zi Wuji laughed. As he lowered his arm, the countless runic swords were all launched towards Chu Kuangren in one go.
Similarly, the countless runic swords that Chu Kuangren had formed around himself shot out.
Like a meteor show, the barrage of runic swords from both sides shot across the skies and clashed continuously in the air, bursting with brilliant sparks of light. It was a beautiful yet deadly sight to behold.
“Crushing Mountain Rune!”
Zi Wuji once again cast another gigantic rune, which headed towards Chu Kuangren. It was the Crushing Mountain that Chu Kuangren had used earlier.
Everyone was shocked to see that.
“Zi Wuji’s eyes are ridiculously powerful. It can copy runes now?!”
“That’s right. A technique like this is just too handy in terms of runic Dao. As time passes, this person will undoubtedly be the best in runic Dao in the future.”
“Purple Runic Demon Eyes. This is the first time I’ve heard of a technique like this.”
The watching sky-prides, who cultivated rune techniques, was greatly shocked to witness Zi Wuji’s rune copying ability.
They all knew what having an ability like that meant.
To learn a new type of rune, a sorcerer would need to study and practice drawing it day and night. Even the lowest level of runes would require drawing it thousands of times over for one to be skilled in using it. However, Zi Wuji’s ability could enable him to copy the runes that his opponents had spent tremendous efforts to learn.
Having such an ability would be a dream come true for all sorcerers in the world.
Nevertheless, it was a nightmare for sorcerers who did not possess such an ability to face someone with Zi Wuji’s ability in battle!
Chu Kuangren lifted his arm, formed a runic sword, and destroyed the incoming Crushing Mountain Rune.
“This is an interesting ability indeed.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
“The main event is yet to come.”
Zi Wuji laughed as an incredibly huge green rune suddenly appeared above Chu Kuangren and enveloped him within it.
The wood spiritual qi in the surrounding area had also started gathering towards that rune too.
Within an instant, countless vines formed by the wood spiritual qi emerged from that green rune.
The numerous tentacle-like vines headed towards Chu Kuangren. Even if he could slice them off with his runic sword, his efforts were futile as the regeneration speed of those vines was just astonishingly quick. Whenever one was cut off, two would grow back and take their place. As such, that attack seemed endless.
“Take that. This is the Rune of Yggdrasil! One of the most top-notched wood-based runes to exist. Besides, this area also happens to be a Wood Spiritual Qi Leyline, which has an abundance of wood spiritual qi. It’s useless for you to struggle. Just be a good boy and stay in this cage of vines.” Zi Wuji laughed, already thinking that victory was in the palm of his hands.
He had been secretly drawing the Rune of Yggdrasil ever since the start of his battle with Chu Kuangren. As of now, he has finally succeeded in trapping Chu Kuangren.
Zi Wuji was confident that even ten outlawed sky-pride would not be able to break free in a situation like this.
Once Chu Kuangren was trapped, would victory still be far behind?
“Brother Chu, are you going to admit defeat or what? Feel free to use other techniques or attacks too. I certainly wouldn’t mind.”
Although spoken politely, Zi Wuji was reminding Chu Kuangren that they were only fighting using rune techniques. ‘If you use other forms of attack, it’ll mean that you admit defeat.’
“Sigh. To defeat someone like you, I can even do it with both my arms and legs tied up.”
Chu Kuangren replied. In fact, he had been using his mind power to create those runes all this while, so fighting Zi Wuji with both his arms and legs tied up was not exaggerated.
“Have a taste of this attack. Rune of Annihilation!”
Chu Kuangren’s spiritual thoughts poured out the moment he finished speaking. From him as the epicenter, several mysterious runic patterns were released in all directions.
A humongous white rune appeared and instantly enveloped the whole Rune of Yggdrasil.
Immediately, the power of those two runes dissipated.
“What is going on? What kind of rune is this?”
Zi Wuji was very shocked, but his eyes were still radiating with purple light. He was attempting to copy the rune that Chu Kuangren had used.
However, he soon realized that the Rune of Annihilation was just too mysterious.
Surges of Daoist Rhyme were contained between each pattern of that rune, so there was no way for him to copy it.
“This is a Runic Enigma!!”
Zi Wuji’s pupils gradually shrank.
The energy of runes came from nature itself.
However, that type of rune contained a never-before-seen power, which was significantly different from the power of nature that was commonly known to everyone.
That type of rune was mysterious and strange — an enigma in itself.
Hence, that type of rune was known to the sorcerors as a Runic Enigma!
As for the Rune of Annihilation that Chu Kuangren used earlier, it also contained one of the powers of Runic Enigma within!
It was the sort of power that even his Purple Runic Demon Eyes could not replicate!
“Even the Runic Lands do not have that many runes that contain the Runic Enigma. Yet, this guy has mastered using one of them!”
“D*mn it. This Enigma seems like it can break the power of my runes!”
Zi Wuji was stupefied. The Runic Enigma’s appearance had completely disrupted his control over the flow of battle.
After dispersing the Rune of Yggdrasil, Chu Kuangren chuckled. “Aren’t you a master in copying runes? But I wonder if you’re fast enough to copy all of them!”
A huge surge of mind power then poured out and enveloped the surrounding area, attracting endless streams of spiritual qi to gather under its might.
In the void, a flame appeared. It was the flame rune.
After that, frost condensed and formed. It was the frost rune…
From nature itself, various surges of energy appeared in the void in the form of runes.
Countless runes appeared. They were so densely packed that they filled the skies like a vast ocean of runes, emanating a boundless runic aura!
Even Zi Wuji could not help but shudder under the might of that aura.
‘There’s too many!’
The number of runes that Chu Kuangren had created was just too much, so much that it exceeded his imagination.
Even if he could speed up his rune replicating speed by dozens or even hundreds of times, he was still far behind Chu Kuangren’s rate of producing runes!
“I… I have lost!”
