Long Yu accepted the battle with Ye Ziwei and was teleported to a mountain range. This mountain range had a radius of a hundred miles and was surrounded by mountains and rocks. The terrain was very complicated. Most importantly, these mountains and rocks actually contained some kind of special material that could block the detection of ordinary detection abilities.
This brought a lot of trouble to ordinary martial cultivators because it was very easy to hide in such a terrain. It would take a long time before a winner could be decided. Some of the weaker participants even had the perfect opportunity to defeat the stronger ones.
However, this was an exception for Long Yu.
Not only had Long Yu comprehended the seventh level of the Shadow Eye, he had also mastered the fifth level of the martial dao secret art, Balanced Control! With the two techniques working together, Long Yu could easily sense the changes in power within a thousand miles.
After cultivating Balanced Control, the principles of Long Yu's detection were completely different from others. This was a big advantage for him in the competition of the strongest emperor realm.
Therefore, he was able to easily discover Ye Ziwei's whereabouts. However, Ye Ziwei was unable to discover Long Yu, because Long Yu was currently hiding behind a mountain peak. The mountain peak blocked Ye Ziwei's detection.
Of course, Long Yu couldn't be bothered to keep hiding. There were two reasons for him to participate in this battle. One was to feel Ye Ziwei's power, and the other was to mislead Ye Ziwei and the others about his own strength.
Therefore, there was no point in hiding. Long Yu wanted a head-on confrontation!
He flew directly over the mountain range and was immediately detected by Ye Ziwei. The two quickly approached each other, and the distance of dozens of miles was closed in a moment.
"I didn't expect to meet you so early. I thought I would have to wait until the last few rounds."
Ye Ziwei flew over from afar. When she was still at the horizon, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up as she spoke to Long Yu.
"I believe it's the same for you whether it's earlier or later."
Long Yu said with a smile.
"That's true. However, it's not the same for you."
A hint of caution appeared in Ye Ziwei's eyes, "I thought you would choose to forfeit. I didn't expect you to accept in the end. Aren't you afraid of losing to someone else after you lose to me and lose the right to continue?"
"You seem to be very confident in yourself."
Long Yu's lips curled upwards.
"Of course."
Ye Ziwei smiled indifferently. She was too lazy to talk nonsense. She had wanted to fight with Long Yu for a long time. Unfortunately, Long Yu had disappeared a year ago. She couldn't find him even if she wanted to. Now that she had finally met him again, Ye Ziwei wouldn't give up this opportunity so easily.
"Thunder, Heavenly Punishment from All Directions!"
Ye Ziwei raised her hand, and the lightning mark on her forehead immediately lit up. It actually easily moved the clouds in the sky, causing them to quickly gather. In the next moment, eight terrifying bolts of purple lightning descended from the sky!
Eight bolts of lightning blasted at Long Yu from eight different directions, and their speed was extremely fast. Long Yu's figure flickered subconsciously, and he used the Merak Footwork to dodge. However, he suddenly found that his figure did not move, and he was still in the same place!
"It's an illusion array! This little girl, it seems like she set up an illusion array while talking to me. The space around me is not sealed, but if I want to leave this space, I'll have to break the illusion array … It's too late, I can only fight it head on! "
Long Yu's expression slightly changed. He didn't think that Ye Ziwei would use such a trick against him. But then again, nothing is too deceitful in war, so Ye Ziwei's actions weren't wrong.
Most importantly, for Long Yu, fighting head on would allow him to accurately determine the opponent's power!
"Fallen Dark Star!"
Long Yu raised his hand and instantly condensed eight Fallen Dark Stars. Immediately after, the Barrier of Death appeared around his body and protected him.
"If you fight head on, you'll die if you don't surrender!"
In the distance, Ye Ziwei spoke with extreme confidence, and a smile of victory appeared on her face.
Her Eight Direction Divine Punishment is an extremely important part of Lei Emperor's inheritance. It's an Ancient High-Grade martial skill, which can be said to be the strongest martial skill in Shen Wu world, right?
Not only that, but she has also cultivated this martial skill to perfection, making it extremely destructive. If she were to face it head on, even she wouldn't be able to block it, and it's very likely that she'll be smashed to pieces by the Eight Direction Divine Punishment.
Now, she took advantage of the time she was talking to Long Yu to set up an illusion array, making it so that Long Yu can't dodge and can only take it head on. This way, unless Long Yu uses his King's Life Plate, he'll die without a doubt!
Of course, Ye Ziwei thinks this way, but Long Yu doesn't think so.
Eight Fallen Dark Stars condensed and flew towards the Eight Direction Divine Punishment lightning bolts as fast as possible. Under Long Yu's 5th level control, these eight Fallen Dark Stars directly charged into the eight Divine Punishment lightning bolts!
"Break!"
Long Yu instantly detonated the eight Fallen Dark Stars. Immediately after, the eight Divine Punishment lightning bolts were struck and became half as thin as before!
"How is this possible!?"
Ye Ziwei's expression immediately changed. She could feel that her eight Divine Punishment lightning bolts were struck by Long Yu, and their power was directly reduced by more than half!
Ye Ziwei has never seen or heard of this kind of method before.
A martial skill that can weaken the opponent's martial skill? Or a Thaumaturgy?
Ye Ziwei didn't know, but she wasn't as confident as before that her Eight Direction Divine Punishment would be able to force Long Yu to use his King's Life Plate. After all, his Eight Direction Divine Punishment's power has been reduced by half …
But for Long Yu, this kind of method is very easy to use.
Although the Fallen Dark Star is small, the power contained within it isn't small. Just a single Fallen Dark Star's Star Explosion is enough to destroy the energy structure of any other attack.
Just now, Long Yu had activated the Star Explosion, allowing the Fallen Dark Star's energy to destroy the energy structure of the eight Heavenly Punishment Lightning bolts, directly reducing their destructive power by more than half.
Only by cultivating Balanced Control to the fifth layer would one be able to find the flaws in an opponent's attack in an instant and use Fallen Dark Star to deal with them. If it were anyone else, even if they cultivated Fallen Dark Star, it would be impossible for them to destroy the structure of an opponent's attack and weaken the power of their attack.
In the entire Shen Wu world, only Long Yu can use this method!
Immediately afterwards, eight bolts of Heavenly Punishment Lightning smashed into Long Yu's Barrier of Death. At this time, Long Yu had already completely comprehended the Divine Rune of Death at the Source level. In addition, he had already cultivated his Deathly Body Tempering to perfection. The defensive strength of the Barrier of Death was at least a hundred times stronger than it was a year ago!
The weakened eight Divine Punishment lightning bolts took a full two breaths of time to finally destroy the Barrier of Death and land on Long Yu's body.
An extremely numb feeling spread throughout his body, but Long Yu's physical body was far stronger than a normal person's. Even though the Eight Direction Divine Punishment had been weakened, it didn't cause any damage to Long Yu at all, only numbing his body for a moment.
This scene fell into Ye Ziwei's eyes, causing her eyelids to twitch. Without a doubt, Long Yu's response was out of her expectations.
Originally, Ye Ziwei thought that even if this attack couldn't force Long Yu to use his King's Life Plate, it would at least force Long Yu to use some of his hidden trump cards, right?
However, she found that Long Yu only used a few normal methods to easily resolve this crisis.
"As for this illusion formation … Hand of Nine Serenities, destroy it!"
Long Yu didn't just stand there and do nothing. He was still trapped in the illusion formation, so if he didn't destroy it, he would only be able to take a beating without being able to fight back. This obviously wasn't the result Long Yu wanted.
Since this was a probing battle, Long Yu didn't just want to test Ye Ziwei's attack power, but also her defense and movement techniques!
Seven white skeletal arms instantly stretched out from the void, directly grabbing at the few key eyes of the illusion array surrounding Long Yu. Then, with a burst of strength, the key parts of the entire illusion array were completely annihilated, causing the illusion array to lose its effect.
This method caused Ye Ziwei to be shocked once again.
If it was said that she did not expect Long Yu to be able to withstand her Eight Directional Heavenly Punishment so easily, then what she did not expect was that Long Yu would be able to easily break through her illusion array with just a swipe of his skeletal arm.
It was as though Long Yu clearly knew where the weak points of her illusion array were, and had deliberately attacked those weak points. Such a powerful perceptive ability, just where did it come from?
Without a doubt, it was the Balanced Control of the fifth level of the Martial Path secret technique.
Even in outer space, the Martial Path secret techniques were only passed down by some major sects and forces. Even the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor only knew three Martial Path secret techniques. However, each secret technique allowed a Martial Cultivator to be like a fish in water in a battle.
Although secret martial arts couldn't directly increase a Martial Cultivator's attack or defense, they had their own uses. For example, balanced control. Even though he was only at the fifth level, he could already see through the weaknesses of most techniques and counter them.
The most despicable thing was that this method was quite subtle. Ye Ziwei only knew that Long Yu had weakened her attack and destroyed her illusion formation, but she didn't know how Long Yu had done it.
"However, I only need to know that you have this ability. That's enough …"
Ye Ziwei's lips curled into a smile. Long Yu's ability was very terrifying. If he was at the late or peak Emperor Realm, she might not be a match for Long Yu.
However, Long Yu was only at the initial stage of the Emperor Realm!
How could she, Ye Ziwei, not be able to deal with Long Yu who had just stepped into the Emperor Realm?
Although Long Yu was a genius who could fight above his realm, so was Ye Ziwei. When both parties could fight above their realm, the difference in cultivation realm could also determine the outcome of the battle.
Immediately afterward, the lightning mark on Ye Ziwei's forehead lit up and condensed into a wave of lightning that surrounded her body. This was a defensive method to prevent Long Yu from sneaking an attack.
Ye Ziwei knew Long Yu's fighting style very well. She didn't know when Long Yu would appear behind her and launch a sneak attack. Therefore, she decided to maintain her defensive method.
