244: Chapter 234 Fighting a rock with an egg
Ji Yebai walked through the mountains with a composed and unhurried pace.
As he continued forward, he constantly familiarized himself with his current strength.
Having his Nirvana Realm strength suddenly restricted and bound to the Life and Death Realm stage—especially after being accustomed to the existence of Law Power for these past few decades—losing it all at once was still somewhat awkward.
In normal times, this bit of awkwardness wouldn't be much of an issue.
But at this moment, with a High-rank Saint of unknown purpose lurking in the shadows, the pressure was quite significant.
Although the pressure was great, it wasn't enough to make Ji Yebai lose his composure.
Illusory chains of Law sealed the heavens and locked the earth, forming a strange membrane that isolated Ji Yebai from the Laws of the world.
It could be said that all of Ji Yebai's powerful Aura was completely sealed.
Now, he looked just like a harmless ordinary person.
Having lost all traces of a powerful Aura while walking through the forests of such a Small World...
Naturally...
He was targeted once again.
And the one targeting him wasn't a Vicious Beast of the Small World.
Boom!!!
The mountain forest shook.
Surrounding energy began to coalesce continuously.
A powerful pressure came rolling in.
It was hard for Ji Yebai not to notice.
Pitch-black, dark energy shifted into a thousand forms—like shadows, like demons, like humans, and like ghosts.
Flickering shadows gathered in a hazy gloom as hundreds of dark Incarnations flashed incessantly.
A terrifyingly sharp Aura emanated from them.
Ji Yebai stopped in his tracks, looking at the scene ahead.
"Hahaha! I didn't expect to run into such a big fish. What a pleasant surprise!!!"
An extremely delighted voice rang out.
Soon, the dark energy in front of him converged, and a figure manifested.
The person stood there, yet his entire body seemed shrouded in layers of shadows, appearing as one person yet also as many.
"Shadowbind Civilization..."
Ji Yebai looked at the man in front of him with a calm gaze and an indifferent expression.
From the energy characteristics surrounding the man, it was easy to tell which civilization he belonged to.
It was precisely the strongest civilization under the Vagada Civilization in the Neili Star Sector.
"Hey, what's your name? You still act so high and mighty even after seeing me. Unfortunately, we already know the wonders of this world. With the Laws sealed, you Transformation Stage powerhouses can no longer exert your normal strength, hahaha..."
The man from the Shadowbind Civilization laughed loudly at Ji Yebai.
His demeanor was somewhat manic; as he spoke, he even stuck out a crimson tongue to lick his lips.
Terrifying pressure continued to spread, and the flickering, dancing shadows made the surroundings feel as though they had turned into a ghostly Hell.
Ji Yebai looked at him indifferently without saying a word.
And this seemed to provoke the man even further.
"Do you think I don't know? Right now, you can at most exert Legendary Elementary combat power. This world—this world nurtured by that terrifying Astral Behemoth of old—naturally possesses a special suppression. You big shots are all suppressed here."
"This place!"
"Is our world!"
"You are no longer that big shot who could make even Abraham bow his head!"
"The capital that allowed you to be so high and mighty no longer exists!"
The man from the Shadowbind Civilization looked cold as his Aura surged toward the sky, making the surrounding air heavy as pressure like a great mountain spread out.
Rumble!!!
His Legendary Intermediate strength was fully revealed. The terrifying Aura filled the entire jungle, causing the animals that were already fleeing to instantly tremble in fear, not daring to move an inch.
This Aura was very strong.
But in Ji Yebai's eyes, there was nothing remarkable about it.
It was even quite ordinary.
Setting aside his Physical Body, even relying solely on his current Legendary Elementary strength, he could easily challenge those of a higher Rank.
Ji Yebai cast another calm glance at the man and chuckled softly, "Merely an ant!"
That posture, that expression—it was as if he were looking down at an insect in the dust.
This attitude instantly provoked the man before him.
"Arrogant!!!"
The man let out a roar, his face flushing bright red.
As a member of the Shadowbind Civilization, he could normally walk tall in the Neili Star Sector.
Essentially, as long as he didn't provoke important figures of the Vagada Civilization, he was like a high and mighty god, someone who could dominate vast numbers of interstellar civilizations and living beings.
But unfortunately...
The Vagada Civilization was an insurmountable hurdle for the Shadowbind Civilization.
And now, in this special Small World, the high and mighty Transformation Stage powerhouses were actually being suppressed.
Even more fortunately, the person before him was someone whom even the famously powerful Abraham of the Vagada Civilization had to respect.
This made it impossible for him not to get carried away.
He originally wanted to humiliate the person before him to vent the resentment he had suppressed for many years.
But... but...
How did he dare!?
How did he still dare to maintain that high and mighty appearance as if nothing had changed!!!
This instantly enraged him.
"A person needs to recognize reality!!!"
"This is no longer interstellar space; here, I am the Dominator!!!"
The man's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
Whoosh!
His body transformed into a streak of black light, like a sharp sword, charging straight at Ji Yebai.
His Legendary Intermediate strength was fully displayed.
His Aura blanketed everything like a pitch-black Hell, terrifying to the extreme.
Although the man was impulsive, he wasn't stupid.
A Transformation Stage powerhouse was an existence he could never touch in the normal Universe.
An existence where even a single glance could cause Legendary Intermediate warriors like him to die in droves.
Although they could not use Divine Power now due to the suppression of this world...
They were still powerful experts after all.
The man did not let his guard down.
On the contrary, he was fully focused.
He went all out from the very first move.
Moreover, he was prepared.
If Ji Yebai made any extraordinary move, he would retreat immediately.
After all, some Secret Techniques could ignore Rank differences.
However.
To his surprise, Ji Yebai didn't move.
He didn't make a single move.
This left the man extremely astonished.
But then, the man gritted his teeth and increased his output even further, turning into a streak of high-speed light and lunging toward Ji Yebai's chest.
This was his strongest Secret Technique.
Transforming into Shadow Light, indestructible and all-piercing.
Ji Yebai watched the front with a calm gaze.
Especially when he saw the man transform into a high-speed black light charging at his chest, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Then, he didn't dodge at all; he even puffed out his chest slightly.
The black light that the Shadowbind Civilization man had transformed into arrived in an instant.
The sharp Aura emitted by the black light was unparalleled.
Even a great mountain would be pierced through.
At this moment, the man was incredibly confident.
A cruel smile even hung on the corners of his mouth.
Never mind a Transformation Stage powerhouse who had lost their Divine Power; even if they hadn't, if they dared to take his strike head-on without dodging, their chest would still be pierced.
After all, Transformation Stage powerhouses cultivated Law, not flesh and blood.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the man's speed increased by a few more points.
However.
The moment he made contact with Ji Yebai's flesh, the man's expression changed drastically in horror.
A vigorous, surging force erupted.
"Impossible!!!"
In that split second, the streak of black light shattered layer by layer, like an egg striking a stone.
