Chapter 242: Controlling Spirits
"No..."
A mouthful of bright red blood sprayed out, and his face instantly turned pale. Zhang Jun, who was fighting Ling Yue, roared in a frenzy, his heart filled with rage. The death of his innate beast had dealt him a heavy blow. He never expected that Sun Zhe, a Fifth Stage early Cultivator, would kill the already matured Heilu.
But the death of Heilu had become a reality. The enormous dragon corpse floated on the surface of the water, its cruel and murderous eyes now a dull gray. The waters within several miles were dyed blood red by its blood, and the strong stench spread for dozens of miles. Although Sun Zhe was also injured, it was nothing compared to the dead Azure Dragon.
"I will kill you!!"
With traces of crimson blood at the corners of his mouth, Zhang Jun's eyes shot out a fierce madness. He immediately abandoned his fight with Ling Yue and suddenly charged at Sun Zhe, not even bothering to block Ling Yue's attack. He shot toward Sun Zhe like an arrow released from a bow.
"Boom..."
A blue energy orb struck Zhang Jun's back, and another mouthful of bright red blood gushed out. Yet he seemed oblivious to the pain. His long black hair flowed down, and his narrow eyes flickered with a strange crimson light. With a downward motion of his right hand, he summoned two enormous Water Dragons from thin air, both charging toward Sun Zhe. Clearly, he was determined to drag Sun Zhe down with him.
"Since Heilu is dead, you can go down to accompany it!"
Zhang Jun's figure raced toward Sun Zhe like lightning. Strangely, the Water Droplet Symbol on his forehead ignited, and an incredibly violent aura emanated from his body. At this moment, the power he unleashed far exceeded his peak state, and it seemed as if he was about to ignite himself.
"Sun Zhe, run! He's burning Law power to fight you!"
Seeing Zhang Jun's crazed appearance, Ling Yue's expression changed drastically. She immediately shouted loudly at Sun Zhe while her figure transformed into a blue phantom and rushed toward Zhang Jun.
Just moments ago, Heilu's final claw had nearly incapacitated Sun Zhe's right arm; he could barely hold his Long Sword now. Coupled with the intense battle just fought, he had exhausted most of his spiritual energy. The mature Azure Dragon was an invincible existence among its peers; how could it be so easily killed?
Although Sun Zhe had barely managed to kill Heilu through strategy, his current combat strength was less than thirty percent of what it usually was. There was no way he could match the frenzied Zhang Jun. After hearing Ling Yue's warning, he immediately fled without hesitation at top speed; only a fool would confront Zhang Jun at this moment.
An unusual scene unfolded on Jinshui: Sun Zhe was desperately running ahead, creating waves beneath his feet while Zhang Jun crazily pursued him from behind. The water surface bizarrely parted to create a path, while Ling Yue closely followed behind Zhang Jun, her body enveloped in a layer of blue water flow.
Under normal circumstances, Ling Yue would be the fastest among the three and could easily intercept Zhang Jun. However, now that Zhang Jun was burning Law power with determination to take down Sun Zhe, his speed surpassed even Ling Yue's by a margin. Sun Zhe was already the slowest among them; how could he compare to the current Zhang Jun? The distance between them gradually closed.
"You can't escape!"
A cold voice echoed in Sun Zhe's ear like the call of death. Zhang Jun closely followed behind him, the madness in his black eyes undiminished. His violent aura grew increasingly intense as he condensed a water-blue ice ball in his right hand—an ice ball filled with terrifying energy that even contained a strong essence of water Law.
The distance between Zhang Jun and Sun Zhe grew smaller and smaller. Not only was Ling Yue anxious from behind, but Sun Zhe in front was also panicking. Had he known it would come to this, he wouldn't have taken the risk to kill that Azure Dragon. If he had just held off that Azure Dragon and let Ling Yue capture Zhang Jun first, then they could have worked together against the Azure Dragon without such complications arising. Ultimately, it was that thrill-seeking impulse deep within him that led him into this predicament.
Zhang Jun's presence grew closer, and Sun Zhe could even feel the cold aura of the ice ball in his hand, sensing the terrifying energy within it. Sun Zhe understood that if he were hit, he would be severely injured, if not killed, and at that point, he would have no way to evade Zhang Jun's other lethal moves. It was an almost certain death trap!
A flash of determination crossed Sun Zhe's eyes, and he made a decision.
"Prison of Thunder!" "Thunder Dragon's Claw!"
Caught off guard, Sun Zhe suddenly halted and unleashed two prepared Divine Abilities simultaneously. At the same time, the Thunder Domain appeared around him, tightly protecting his body.
As soon as Prison of Thunder was activated, the area within hundreds of feet transformed into a purple world. Zhang Jun's figure was immediately ensnared within this purple domain, his speed drastically reduced, and even his movements became constrained. With Thunder Dragon's Claw unleashed, a massive dragon claw several dozen feet long abruptly materialized out of thin air, crashing down towards Zhang Jun with a violent aura enveloping him.
Like a reflex action, Zhang Jun immediately struck the enormous Thunder Dragon's Claw with the blue ice ball in his hand. The cold aura collided with the raging power in the Void, and terrifying energy exploded between them.
"Boom boom boom..."
The horrifying energy surged outward, causing even the water below to momentarily stagnate. Ultimately, Thunder Dragon's Claw could not match the Divine Ability unleashed by Zhang Jun using the Law power. Even with the protection of the domain, Sun Zhe's face turned pale, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. However, he used this rebound force to flee into the distance while Zhang Jun was blocked by the terrifying energy explosion behind him and had to stop in his tracks.
Watching Sun Zhe escape rapidly, Zhang Jun's eyes turned crimson. The speed at which he burned Law power doubled instantly; the Water Droplet Symbol on his forehead shrank visibly as his aura surged explosively. He no longer cared about the residual waves of terrifying energy and transformed into a blur as he chased after Sun Zhe.
"I..."
Seeing this scene unfold before him, Sun Zhe's expression darkened. He cursed Zhang Jun a thousand times in his heart but dared not slow down his pace as he frantically sprinted forward.
"Hmph, let's see how you block me this time!"
A cold voice echoed in Sun Zhe's ear as an even larger blue ice ball appeared in Zhang Jun's palm. Watching Sun Zhe flee desperately, he slowly raised his right hand, aiming at Sun Zhe’s direction. Just at that critical moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out.
"Controlling Spirits!"
As those words were spoken, the colors of the entire world changed instantly; the originally black void transformed into a blue domain. Everything in this world seemed to lose its self-control in an instant, including Zhang Jun who was preparing to attack Sun Zhe—he stood frozen in mid-Void like a wooden statue.
The Yuling Sect’s foundational scripture "Yuling Jue" has seven levels: the first is for living beings, the second for spirit transformation, the third for Transform Spirit, and the fourth is Controlling Spirits!
During the great competition at Thunder Temple years ago, Yukong nearly defeated Sun Zhe using this Third Style. This illustrates the terrifying power of Yuling Jue; it is already rare for someone of his age to comprehend the Third Floor. Yet Ling Yue, who had not yet reached adulthood, had already grasped the fourth level of Controlling Spirits. At that moment, Sun Zhe truly understood what a real Monster was.
Sun Zhe realized that although he had some reasons for reaching this point, it was mostly due to his relentless efforts. Therefore, he never dared to call himself talented; according to his innate abilities, he was merely slightly stronger than average. However, Ling Yue was different; if her cultivation were achieved through pills provided by Yuling Sect, it could be understood. But her comprehension ability was entirely unexplainable—even the sect leader who had lived for countless years could only grasp up to the fifth level. Yet Ling Yue was so young and had already reached the fourth level; this truly transcended mere talent.
Sun Zhe stood there dazedly, watching as a charming girl appeared before him. A complex expression flashed in his eyes but vanished just as quickly.
"I'm sorry, it was my mistake!"
Ling Yue looked at the severely injured Sun Zhe, a hint of guilt surfacing in her captivating eyes. The original plan was for Sun Zhe to deal with Azure Dragon while she took on Zhang Jun. However, Sun Zhe had killed Azure Dragon, and she had allowed Zhang Jun to escape, resulting in Sun Zhe's more serious injuries. This was indeed her fault.
"It's okay... No!"
Sun Zhe replied calmly, but upon seeing Zhang Jun trapped behind Ling Yue, his expression changed drastically. He immediately embraced Ling Yue and charged downward. Her alluring body pressed against him, but Sun Zhe felt no sense of violation. The remaining Thunder Power within him surged forth entirely, and the Thunder Domain tightly enveloped the two of them. Although their defense became stronger, it also caused their bodies to press even closer together.
"What are you doing!"
Ling Yue's expression changed dramatically; no one had ever dared to treat her this way. Without hesitation, her jade-like palm struck Sun Zhe's chest. As expected, Sun Zhe spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning as pale as snow.
"Boom..."
What responded to her was not Sun Zhe's counterattack but an incredibly violent explosion. The blue world instantly collapsed, and the destructive energy sent everything around them into oblivion. Even the two of them were caught in this wave of annihilation, plummeting downward like kites with severed strings.
It turned out that Zhang Jun had self-destructed!
