Chapter 995: Chapter 995

Fisher assumed that Gu Shen was an even more extraordinary S-level Spiritual than Mu Wanqiu.

Regarding Gu Shen’s cultivation, he provided a lot of guidance.

Extraordinary cultivation is essentially about enhancing one’s own combat power... And as the Fortress Guardian of Deep Scale City, Fisher’s combat capabilities are definitely within the top five among the Fourth-order in North Continent.

He taught Gu Shen how to use the "Domain Embryo," how to comprehend the "True Domain" more quickly and efficiently to become a Fourth-order.

These pointers were all very useful.

Gu Shen listened carefully, pondered over them, and repeatedly validated them...

But unfortunately, for the current him, they were of limited use.

Because Fisher did not know that what Gu Shen possesses now is not a "Domain Embryo," but a complete and immense "Spiritual World."

This could no longer be summarized with the term "Domain."

However, Gu Shen’s spiritual power was not strong enough, and the Pure Land Domain he "projected" could barely cover a small area.

If he really reached the Fourth-order...

Then the "Pure Land" Domain might become a powerful weapon sweeping across the Fourth-order!

However, the problem trapping Gu Shen now is not how to "Breakthrough," but how to cross the tangible "Third-Order" in front of him.

Third-Order Transcendents need to sense the "Domain Embryo." Find the newest release on novel※fire.net

But he had a complete "Four Seasons Wilderness" from the start... The "Domain Embryo" phase didn’t seem to exist?

As for the Spiritual Breathing Method.

That’s another matter entirely, the breathing method is an auxiliary practice to maintain spiritual stability and ensure combat endurance.

No matter how powerful, the breathing method has nothing to do with one’s realm.

While Gu Shen was trapped in the "Third-Order problem," a second regular visitor arrived at the small courtyard.

No one would have thought that this North Continent S-level, usually as cold as an iceberg, would suddenly run to Gu Shen’s small courtyard one day and voluntarily propose a sparring session.

Moreover, from that day on, for an entire week, Mu Wanqiu would come daily to spar with Gu Shen.

Helplessly, Gu Shen had to re-arrange the ancient talismans.

The reason was simple—

Mu Wanqiu wanted Gu Shen to exert 100% of his strength...

100% strength meant that this fight, if careless at all, could reveal the spiritual aura of having broken through three times, reaching the Fourth-order.

Gu Shen initially intended to hide some of his strength, but Mu Wanqiu’s combat power was strong enough that he could not afford to be careless and had to give it his all once the fight began.

The battle scenes were generally intense, causing the entire Xuankong Mountain to tremble and shake, even Fisher from the Deep Lake would be drawn, although every time he proposed to observe, Mu Wanqiu refused.

S-level has its privileges.

Mu Wanqiu’s temperament was not good, and coupled with having a Fourth Rank Invincible "bodyguard," the eager Fisher had no choice but to give up his desire to watch the match.

[Deep Sea] was once again disturbed by the tremors of Xuankong Mountain, and ripples appeared on the calm surface of the lake.

Taking off the fish tank, Fisher, who swam among thousands of fish in Deep Lake, was lying on a reef, feeling the sunlight breaking through the lake surface.

Qingning’s afternoon nap was broken.

Fisher had long been used to such commotion; he let out a stream of bubbles, turned over at the bottom of the lake, and continued to sleep... The S-level duel must be incredibly exciting, but unfortunately, Mu Wanqiu wouldn’t allow him to watch, so it’s best not to go to Xuankong Mountain to avoid being disappointed.

At this moment in the small courtyard of Xuankong Mountain.

Two figures were entwined in the storm.

Mu Wanqiu’s war knife turned into shadowy whips, lashing at Gu Shen, but the latter remained calm, retreating imperceptibly, as countless pieces of steel flew like leaves in the wind, perfectly blocking every slash from the [Judge].

The incessant "clang clang clang clang" explosions!

This was a manifestation of Gu Shen’s perfect mental control.

He saw through every one of Mu Wanqiu’s attacks, and the "landing point" of each strike!

On the day the Lord of the Legion displayed the [Dragon Annihilation],

Gu Shen faintly caught some inspiration.

It was regarding thoughts on "spirit control"... In the eyes of normal Transcendents, the stronger the ability, the more difficult it is to control. If [Dragon Annihilation] is spread out, the Lord of the Legion could easily incinerate the land for miles around.

But her [Dragon Annihilation], when retracted, didn’t even singe a single blade of grass.

True "control" is not about unlimited destruction.

It’s about ease and grace, wielding great power with lightness.

After understanding this, Gu Shen also tried to achieve this, making himself intercept all of the [Judge]’s attacks in his duel with Mu Wanqiu without damaging any object in the small courtyard.

Because Gu Shen didn’t use the "Pure Land."

If he unleashed the Fourth-order Domain, directly crushing Mu Wanqiu with his Spiritual Domain Projection, the battle would end in three seconds, losing its essence.

As the gusty wind howled, the two S-levels continued to clash fiercely.

Besides, there was actually a third person present in this battle.

This selfless spectator, also serving as a judge, was watching the intense duel between the S-levels while giving evaluations in Gu Shen’s Spirit Sea.

"The real-time simulation system has graded Mu Wanqiu’s Third-Order offensive techniques at 99 points."

In today’s data-driven deep water area.

Battle replays and real-time evaluations were not difficult.

If a battle occurred under Deep Sea Supervision, every Transcendent could enhance their skills by watching the replays.
