Chapter 379: Vajra Divine Sense

"Yield!" Hua Guzi's mana surged.

Wood Element - Tide of Flowers!

Petals coalesced into colossal waves, engulfing the entire battlefield and crashing towards Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo's face was grim as he pushed both palms forward.

Wood Element - Pine Ripple Green Wave.

Wood Element mana gushed out, forming a vast wave of green light that surged back against the pink Tide of Flowers.

Rumble...

The two massive waves collided, generating wave after wave in a relentless, awe-inspiring surge that shook the entire battlefield and the hearts of the spectators!

However, the stalemate didn't last long. The tide of the pink flower sea overwhelmed the green wave, pushing the front line closer and closer to Ning Zhuo.

The situation on the battlefield was clear.

Spectators buzzed with discussion.

"Ning Zhuo is being suppressed!"

"He cultivates a five-element art, and using only the Wood Element won't unleash his true combat power."

"His cultivation technique is quite profound, capable of freely transforming five-element mana, and under mutual generation, it offers a twofold increase. With such an excellent technique, he should be transforming into Fire and Metal elements for combat!"

"He's young, full of vigor. He wants to challenge Hua Guzi's Wood Element with his own, to see who's superior. Understandable, haha."

Ning Zhuo's face was solemn.

His Wood Element skills were limited, having benefited from the rapid learning provided by the Enlightenment Diagram.

But he chose this tactic not to contend with Hua Guzi in the Wood Element, but to verify his true capabilities through actual combat.

Hua Guzi primarily cultivated Wood Element techniques, making it her main means of attack. Her combat prowess placed her among the top ten in the minor contention peak.

Ning Zhuo knew clearly that the time and effort he had spent on the Wood Element were far less than Hua Guzi's. It would be extremely difficult to defeat her relying solely on this.

He never underestimated the heroes of the world. He simply wanted to engage in a clash first, to see how his current abilities stacked up against a seasoned Wood Element cultivator like Hua Guzi.

"Hua Guzi designed a tactic specifically for me!"

"She's using a reactive approach to counter my aggressive strategy."

"Much of my Wood Element mana is being eroded, absorbed, transformed, and used to bolster her combat power."

"Learned something."

"Her mastery of Wood Element spells completely surpasses mine, which is why she can use them to counter Wood Element spells."

"This reactive tactic also has prerequisites."

Ning Zhuo didn't panic.

When the Tide of Flowers advanced to within five paces of him, he finally released his mechanical fists and legs.

The mechanical limbs were made from Foundation Establishment level materials, capable of resisting the Tide of Flowers on their own.

Moreover, they were equipped with defensive arrays and talismans, making them incredibly sturdy and hard.

They circled Ning Zhuo once before launching their attack.

Various fist and leg techniques were unleashed, tearing countless gaps in the Tide of Flowers.

Ning Zhuo pressed on, using his twenty mechanical limbs to completely disperse the pink light waves.

"Mechanical Arts!" Everyone was astonished.

They had expected Ning Zhuo to fight using five-element spells.

Instead, Ning Zhuo suddenly pulled out Mechanical Arts, and his proficiency was far beyond the ordinary.

"Go." After using the mechanical limbs to extricate himself, Ning Zhuo's fingers moved rapidly, pulling the suspension threads and directing the mechanical limbs to charge straight towards Hua Guzi.

Hua Guzi revealed a cruel smile, took a deep breath, and cast a Wood Element spell.

Thorn Flower Wall!

Thorns spread, forming several flower walls within a few breaths, blocking Hua Guzi's path.

Ning Zhuo stepped forward, simultaneously controlling the mechanical limbs to execute martial arts.

Martial Art - Body of Suffering!

Martial Art - Freezing Fist!

Martial Art - Old Cold Leg!

The mechanical limbs charged recklessly, their fighting style completely in line with Han Zhou's, utterly disregarding their own safety. They crashed directly into the Thorn Flower Wall.

If they were flesh and blood bodies, such reckless action would undoubtedly leave them severely injured, their skin torn and bleeding profusely.

The Thorn Flower Wall was both offensive and defensive, with great utility.

But these mechanical creations were not flesh and blood, nor were they cultivators. Ning Zhuo controlled them without any reservations.

Bitter cold qi raged! The walls of blooming thorns were breached one by one. Thorns and flowers were frozen and killed in the bitter cold.

Not only that, because they were imbued with the Body of Suffering, these mechanical creations, upon being injured, became even faster, their attacks more ferocious, and their defenses more outstanding.

Hua Guzi's expression changed slightly. She retreated rapidly while casting spells.

Wood Element - Purple Flower Blazes!

Wood Element mana gushed out, condensing several purple flowers the size of millstones in mid-air.

The purple flowers bloomed, their petals spinning like windmills, spewing flames from their centers.

These flames were purple with hints of red and red with hints of purple. They landed on the trees and flowers generated by the Wood Element without causing any harm, but they adhered firmly to the mechanical creations, burning them incessantly. Martial Art - Pouring Out Bitterness!

Ning Zhuo had sparred with Han Zhou for many days and had absorbed the bitter water refined from bitter cold mana. He was very proficient in various martial arts.

Immediately, he remotely controlled the mechanical fists, changing their hand shapes to adopt the posture of Drunken Fist, and unleashed martial arts on the surrounding mechanical limbs.

In an instant, the bitter cold qi compressed and condensed, transforming into handfuls of bitter water that soaked the other surrounding mechanical limbs, extinguishing the purple flames.

The mechanical limbs helped each other, not only resolving the scorching of the purple flames, but also, with the bitter water covering them, further enhancing the power of the Body of Suffering martial art.

Bang bang bang!

The speed of the mechanical limbs surged. Before, they were like birds, but now they were like cannonballs.

The mechanical limbs surged towards Hua Guzi.

Wood Element - Fragrant Flower Maze.

Seeing that her speed was far behind and that she couldn't gain time by repositioning, Hua Guzi had no choice but to cast a spell and vanish from her spot, leaving behind only wisps of fragrance and her scent gone.

Bang bang bang!

The mechanical limbs smashed into the spot where she had disappeared, shattering the ground tiles into countless pieces that flew in all directions. Dust billowed, and the ground trembled incessantly.

The spectators fell silent.

They hadn't expected the battle situation to change so quickly!

As soon as Ning Zhuo released these mechanical limbs, he reversed the situation. Now he was on the offensive, forcing Hua Guzi to flee in all directions.

"Didn't he cultivate five-element spells?"

"How is he so skilled in Mechanical Arts too?!"

"No, I feel like his control over the mechanisms is far more proficient and seasoned than his use of Wood Element spells."

Countless gazes focused on Ning Zhuo. Many people had complex expressions.

Ning Zhuo was only sixteen years old.

At such a young age, mastering Wood Element spells like Forest Creation was already incredibly rare.

Everyone thought this was the main part of Ning Zhuo's combat power. However, in this battle, Ning Zhuo revealed mechanical fists and legs, along with his incredibly skillful and natural control...

People found it difficult to see through Ning Zhuo.

They began to gradually feel that Ning Zhuo might be hiding something else, giving off an air of being unfathomable.

Hua Guzi was forced to flee in all directions!

The training ground was only so big, and the mechanical limbs were fast. Even if Hua Guzi could teleport short distances, she was often quickly pursued and cornered.

"Ning Zhuo! Don't be too arrogant!!" Hua Guzi shrieked.

She knew the situation was very unfavorable for her. If she didn't use her trump card, she would truly be defeated.

Wood Element - World of Flowers!

The next moment, Ning Zhuo's vision changed dramatically. The training ground vanished, and he found himself in a world composed of countless blooming flowers.

"Illusion!" Ning Zhuo's heart understood.

Inside the Mechanical Soaring Dragon, Sun Lingtong also tensed up. His eyes radiated spiritual light, piercing through the disguise, and he saw Hua Guzi charging towards Ning Zhuo.

"Little Zhuo..." Sun Lingtong felt a little worried and prepared to act. If Ning Zhuo was in danger, he would activate the Mechanical Soaring Dragon to protect him.

But the next moment, Buddhist light suddenly burst forth from the mechanical limbs.

Beams of Buddhist light, like the hands of giants, easily tore apart the entire World of Flowers.

Hua Guzi was greatly startled, feeling waves of incredibly powerful and incredibly solid divine sense, like countless Vajra clubs, directly smashing into her divine sea.

"How can there be such powerful divine sense?! Wah!" Hua Guzi was about to rush in front of Ning Zhuo when she suddenly bled from her seven orifices, suffering a heavy injury.

It turned out that her World of Flowers spell was a technique that involved her full mental power. It covered the target's five senses and divine sense through divine sense projection.

However, Ning Zhuo's divine sense had suddenly become too strong. It was like water extinguishing fire, but a cup of water against a raging fire was not only useless but would also be burned and evaporated by the flames.

"Huh?!" At this moment, Sun Lingtong also widened his eyes, surprised and delighted.

He hadn't expected Ning Zhuo to have such a technique.

"What's going on?"

He investigated through the Miles Soaring Dragon and instantly discovered that the twenty mechanical limbs controlled by Ning Zhuo were all erupting with powerful divine sense shockwaves.

"Oh! Vajra Mirror!!" Sun Lingtong suddenly understood.

He had once competed with Ning Zhuo in divine sense in the mountain village of Misty Mountain and learned that the Mirror Terrace Communicating Spirit Art's own divine sense, when combined with external objects, would undergo a qualitative change.

Later, after leaving Misty Mountain and coming to Ten Thousand Medicine Valley, Ning Zhuo had crafted the Vajra Mirror artifacts, which Sun Lingtong was also aware of.

"So, within these mechanical limbs, there's a Vajra Mirror hidden."

Sun Lingtong thought it was brilliant.

These Vajra Mirrors could receive Ning Zhuo's divine sense and transmit it after being relayed.

Ning Zhuo's Mirror Terrace Communicating Spirit divine sense, after being transformed by these mirror artifacts, became incredibly solid and hard, directly smashing through Hua Guzi's World of Flowers, primarily relying on sheer power to overwhelm, with tremendous force!

Hua Guzi's divine sense suffered a heavy blow. Her divine sea churned, and she felt dizzy and lightheaded, almost fainting on the spot.

Her combat experience was very rich. She immediately switched from offense to defense and retreated frantically.

Ning Zhuo didn't seize the opportunity and was a step too late, letting the vines wrap around empty air again.

Hua Guzi took out dumplings from her storage bracelet, swallowing them whole one by one. Her condition rapidly improved.

This reminded Ning Zhuo of the relevant information - Hua Guzi was not only good at combat but also a spiritual chef, skilled in the culinary arts among the hundred arts of cultivation.
