An evenly matched opponent?
Long Yu's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Mo Zhaitian had attacked him not because he was hostile, but because he was looking for an opponent.
In the Dream Realm, there were not many Martial Cultivators who had comprehended the purple killing intent. It was very likely that Long Yu was the first Martial Cultivator that Mo Zhaitian had seen.
In this case, Long Yu would be a good opponent for Mo Zhaitian to train himself.
"Mo Zhaitian is right. In the Dream Realm, after I condense the purple killing intent, I won't consume too much of my Martial Skill. In this case, I can use the same Martial Skill over and over again to gain a deeper understanding of the Martial Skill."
Long Yu soon understood what Mo Zhaitian was thinking. He grinned and said, "If that's the case, I'll use you as a whetstone too!"
Facing Mo Zhaitian's attack, Long Yu used the Siphon Godly Runes to absorb half of the attack's power. Then, he formed the Reincarnation Barrier. If he could block the attack, he would block it. If he couldn't, he would use the Hades Dominating Body to withstand it.
Even though Mo Zhaitian was the top genius in Shura Prefecture, he could not defeat Long Yu in a short period of time when his Martial Path was suppressed.
Every time Long Yu defended against an attack, he would use the Ancient Desolate Shadow Kill or the Nine Underworld Dragon Explosion. At the same time, he activated the Netherworld Dragon Blade to improve his compatibility with the Combat Weapon.
"Mo Zhaitian's Soul Seal!"
Long Yu held the Netherworld Dragon Blade in his hand and found an opportunity to absorb Mo Zhaitian's Soul Seal. He stored it in the slot inside the Netherworld Dragon Blade.
Compared to Heavenly Galaxy and Bai Qing's Soul Seal, Mo Zhaitian's Soul Seal was obviously more powerful. As soon as it was absorbed, the Netherworld Dragon Blade's power was increased by eighty percent!
After it resonated with Long Yu, the Netherworld Dragon Blade's power had increased by three times after absorbing the five Soul Seals.
This number meant that Long Yu's strength had increased by one stage of the Martial Dao realm!
In the outside world, Long Yu, who was at the Heaven Origin Realm, could only deal with Heavenly Tribulation Realm cultivators. But now, with the Void Nether Dragon Blade, he could deal with experts at the Divine Secret Realm!
A Celestial Being Mystical Realm martial cultivator fighting against a Divine Ability Mystical Realm expert was extremely rare in the entire Shura County. Most people had never even heard of such a thing.
As for Long Yu, he was already able to do this.
"Haha, amazing!"
Mo Zhaitian's eyes lit up when he saw the power of Long Yu's Nether Dragon Blade. Even his shadow barrier could not resist it. This opponent was indeed on par with him!
"Divine ability, Hidden Sky Shadow Strike!"
As Mo Zhaitian raised his hand, countless blurry shadows flashed out and swept toward Long Yu. Each of the blurry shadows was filled with a strong murderous intent.
"Hmm? It's more powerful than before … "
Long Yu frowned when he sensed the power of his opponent's Innate Divine Ability. He had no choice but to use the Dragon Sparrow Flash to hide in the alternate dimension to dodge the attack.
"That's a nice skill."
Mo Zhaitian's eyes lit up when he saw that. He smirked and said, "But it's useless against me!"
Mo Zhaitian's shadow raised its hand and a huge cloud of black mist was emitted. It contained the power of the Divine Character with the Space Attribute!
Although Long Yu had used the Dragon Sparrow Flash to hide in the alternate dimension, Mo Zhaitian's black mist had completely surrounded Long Yu and penetrated into the alternate dimension that Long Yu was hiding in!
"What?"
Upon seeing this, Long Yu couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised. Up until now, this was the first time someone was able to break through the Dragon Sparrow Flash since he had learned it.
After using the Dragon Sparrow Flash, Long Yu was unable to use any techniques in this alternate dimension. If this continued, he would soon be completely enveloped by Mo Zhaitian's black mist, which would seep into his body and severely injure him.
"Come out … Burst!"
Long Yu returned from the alternate dimension and immediately burst forth with an extremely fast speed, heading in another direction to avoid it.
The combination of Shadow Burst and Dragon Sparrow Instant Flash allowed Long Yu to move two to three hundred zhang away in the blink of an eye. He managed to dodge Mo Zhaitian's Hidden Sky Shadow Strike.
"Hidden Sky Shadow Strike is the first Innate Theurgy that I have learned. It was also the reason why I reached the Secret Realm of Theurgy … The cultivation of Innate Theurgy is divided into nine levels."
Mo Zhaitian looked at Long Yu dodging and did not pursue him. Instead, he said, "My Zhaitian Heavenly Shadow Strike was originally comprehended to the fifth level of the Middle Three Heavens. Now that I'm fighting with you, it has finally reached the sixth level."
"The Ninth Level?"
Upon hearing this, Long Yu frowned slightly.
"That's right. It's similar to martial skills. Innate Theurgy is just a technique to activate the Divine Characters. Martial skills have different levels of understanding, so Innate Theurgy is the same. "
Mo Zhaitian smirked and said, "Most of the martial cultivators in the Magical Secret Realm can only comprehend the Third Heavenly Level of Innate Magical Powers. However, that's only the top of the Lower Three Heavens. To me, I'm not only pursuing the Lower Three Heavens, but even the Middle Three Heavens … The strongest Theurgy in the Upper Three Heavens is what I want! "
"No wonder."
When Long Yu heard this, he finally understood what was going on.
He could feel that every Martial Cultivator's Innate Theurgy had different powers. He thought it was because of the different compatibility between each Martial Cultivator and the Divine Characters, but now it seemed that it was not the case.
Just like martial skills, Innate Theurgy had different levels and realms. They were called the Nine Heavens Realms.
The First Level to the Third Level was the Lower Three Heavens. The Innate Theurgy at this level was not very powerful, just like most of the Innate Theurgy that Long Yu had seen.
Occasionally, there were Innate Theurgy that reached the Middle Three Heavens level, but that was already very powerful. For example, some of Tian Xing's Theurgy was probably at the Middle Three Heavens level.
But now, Long Yu was facing Mo Zhaitian's Innate Theurgy, Hidden Sky Shadow Strike. It was because his understanding of the Innate Theurgy was better than most Martial Cultivators.
"When a martial skill is understood to a higher level, it will have new effects. Is it the same for Innate Theurgy?"
Long Yu's heart stirred as he thought of this problem.
Mo Zhaitian seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and said, "Lower Three Heavens, Middle Three Heavens, Upper Three Heavens … Every time you improve your understanding of the Innate Theurgy to a higher level, there will be a special effect. Now, take a look at my Hidden Sky Shadow Strike!"
As Mo Zhaitian spoke, Long Yu felt many invisible figures chasing after him. These figures were invisible, but Long Yu could feel their murderous intent!
"If I can't handle this, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be Mo Zhaitian's opponent, right?"
Long Yu thought to himself. Of course, he would not give up just like that.
"Siphon Godly Characters … Explode!"
Long Yu clenched his fists and his body shone with five-colored light. The power of the Siphon Godly Characters exploded!
Even though the invisible figures could not be seen with the naked eye, they could still be affected by the five-colored Siphon Godly Characters.
Five-colored divine runes exploded outwards. At the same time, Long Yu condensed three Desolate Dragon Nine Bursts. Coordinating with the three Desolate Dragon Nine Bursts, Long Yu unleashed them.
Sky Shaking Explosion, Rapid Explosion!
The roar of the dragons shook the heavens and the earth, as if the entire place had become the territory of the Dragon of the Nine Nether. It shattered the invisible figures of Hidden Sky Shadow Strike!
Mo Zhaitian's Hidden Sky Shadow Strike was at least twice as powerful as before. However, it was still destroyed by Long Yu's attack.
"Oh?"
A surprised voice came from the shadow where Mo Zhaitian was, "I didn't expect you to be able to block this attack of mine. It seems like I really have to treat you as an opponent on the same level as me …"
The two of them exchanged blows. The power of the Godly Characters exploded and filled the entire space. The area within a radius of a thousand feet became their battlefield.
Anyone else who came to the battlefield would definitely be torn apart by the violent power. There was no way they could survive.
During the battle, Long Yu's understanding of various Martial Skills continued to improve.
Just as Mo Zhaitian had said, when there was a well-matched opponent in the Dream World, a Martial Cultivator's understanding of Martial Skills or God's Skills would improve tremendously under the pressure of a strong opponent.
This was especially true for experts who had formed the seventh layer of purple murderous intent.
"Primordial Shadow Kill … Peak, Stealth!"
A few hours later, the two were still in the midst of an intense battle. Long Yu finally had a breakthrough in his understanding of Martial Skills. First was the desolate-level Martial Skill, Primordial Shadow Kill.
After cultivating the Primordial Shadow Kill, Long Yu was able to form Primordial Shadows. As his understanding of the Primordial Shadow Kill improved, he was able to form more Primordial Shadows.
After cultivating Ancient Desolate Shadow Kill to Minor Accomplishment, one would be able to unleash Shadow Flow, allowing one to burst forth with extreme speed for a short period of time. Great Accomplishment of Ancient Desolate Shadow Kill would allow one to unleash Desolate Shadow Burst Kill, allowing one's Desolate Shadow Afterimage to launch a suicidal attack on the enemy.
Now, Long Yu had comprehended the Ancient Desolate Shadow Kill to the pinnacle realm, and it triggered the effect of Divine Concealment!
Combined with Long Yu's comprehension of the Divine Character of Concealment, the concealment effect was no less than that of Mo Zhaitian.
However, Long Yu did not activate the stealth effect right away. He knew that with Mo Zhaitian's senses and abilities, his stealth effect would be useless unless he ran away.
Long Yu did not want to leave now.
"Let's continue … Dance of the Dragon Sparrow, Dragon Sparrow Transformation!"
Facing Mo Zhaitian's Sky Shadow Strike, Long Yu could no longer endure it. After all, the Sky Shadow Strike was getting stronger and stronger.
Therefore, he could only rely on his speed to dodge. After a few tries, he finally comprehended the movement technique, the Dance of the Dragon Sparrow, to the Transcendent Realm.
After transforming into the Dragon Sparrow, Long Yu's entire body transformed into a black shadow. His flying speed was almost the same as when he had completely erupted!
