Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 201 - 112: Spell Duel, Disadvantage?
Su Yu didn’t hold back, summoning the Wind God’s Order to bind seventeen White Bone Yakshas. With Thunderbolt Thousand Jins enhanced by two sword qi attacks fully unleashed, he then summoned the Wind-Fire Vajra Wheel for a frenzied cut. A wave of the Wind and Fire Fan sent overwhelming flames sweeping over like a tide, burning the sky-full of demon fog away.
The seventeen White Bone Yakshas bound by the Wind God’s Order were bombarded relentlessly, and bodies with the lowest level quickly shattered.
Jiang Zhihong looked on with heartache, desperately activating his demon banner, releasing more demon fog and shadowy figures, surging forward to confront the True Flame, making sizzling sounds.
Su Yu’s eyes turned cold, spraying pure mana onto the Wind and Fire Fan. The wind power of the fan drove it, combining the whirlwind and True Flame into fiery wind blades, slicing through the demon fog effortlessly like a hot knife through butter.
Jiang Zhihong gritted his teeth, spitting out a breath of essence onto a Bone Lamp, from which cold white flames erupted, spreading over the area, engulfing everything. The cold chill radiated all around, significantly reducing the power of the fiery flames driven by the Wind and Fire Fan, struggling to hold the line.
Seeing this, Su Yu remained expressionless, continuing to activate the Wind and Fire Fan to unleash True Flame Fire Thunder and wind blades, dispersing the demon flames and corpse fire. Both sides came to a stalemate for a while.
But this stalemate only lasted for about thirty seconds before Jiang Zhihong couldn’t hold on. His mana was running out.
Maintaining so many magical treasures at full power, with the demon banner being a Tier Seven Treasure, alongside needing mana to sustain defense treasures, his mana consumption was draining rapidly.
Although Jiang Zhihong’s main Qi Cultivation Heart Skill level was high, it was just an Advanced Qi Refining Heart Skill, with additional boosts from heavenly materials and treasures, his mana barely exceeded ten thousand, far less than Su Yu’s formidable seventy thousand mana.
In magical combat, mana is a crucial factor.
In this aspect, Jiang Zhihong was far inferior to Su Yu.
Su Yu, aware of his advantage, naturally capitalized on it, using his overwhelming power to pressure Jiang Zhihong to his full capacity.
In just over thirty seconds, Jiang Zhihong’s mana became depleted, first the Bone Lamp extinguished, then the demon flame was suppressed, and the demon shadows within were also subdued.
Next, even the Bone Demon Banner became unsustainable, with demon shadows gradually being retracted into the banner. Only the remaining White Bone Yakshas had some ability to act, but they were immobilized by the Wind God’s Order. The Vajra Wheel was fully activated, with wind and fire power surrounding its blades for relentless cutting, spinning ten times a second, shredding bone fragments into the air.
Completely suppressed.
However, Su Yu did not kill him directly but used the Wind-Fire Vajra Wheel combined with the Thunderbolt Thousand Jins Dual Swords to smash the White Bone Yakshas into pieces.
After disabling the demon banner, he then activated the dual swords to slay him.
Killing the body and destroying the heart! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Then came the trio led by An Chenfeng.
Their strength was not much different from the two brothers, and Su Yu didn’t use any special techniques, just pure strength to overpower them head-on.
The dual swords entangled their magical treasures, refining and cutting repeatedly, shredding a magical treasure before taking their heads.
After dispatching these three people, Su Yu exhaled lightly, feeling a lot more at ease.
In subsequent challenges, his methods were not so ruthless; as long as they surrendered, he wouldn’t kill them off completely.
He defeated eight people in a row, making those on the Ten Thousand Poison Gang side look ashen, and Wang Gong’s expression exceptionally grim.
If not for having a hidden ace, he would have given up long ago.
"Brother Qingren, it’s up to you now."
Wearing a dark gold robe, Zuo Qingren smiled as he gazed at Su Yu in the arena with interest, saying:
"Those magical treasures of his are quite impressive."
Turning back to Wang Gong, he said:
"This man is extraordinarily powerful, with at least one Tier Eight Treasure and two Tier Seven Treasures in hand. I’ll need to exert more effort and require an additional 50% fee after."
"So greedy."
Wang Gong felt like spitting blood; the previously agreed fee was already 1000 gold, and now a temporary price hike adds another 50%, totaling 1500 gold.
But at this moment, he had no other choice but to rely on him:
"Brother Qingren, if you can take him down and defeat the others to help me win this Gu Abyss, I’ll add another 50% to your service fee afterward."
"Wait for my good news!"
He stepped forward directly, disappearing in a blur, and reappearing on the stage.
"Zuo Qingren!"
He cupped his hands towards Su Yu with a smile on his face, saying:
"At such a young age, you are incredibly powerful, not an unknown figure. May I ask which hero you belong to? I haven’t seen you before on Ten Thousand Poison Island?"
Although his voice was friendly, and his face was full of smiles, Su Yu could faintly sense the coldness hidden beneath the smile.
With a smile, Su Yu returned the gesture and said:
"Just an unknown junior from afar, visiting Ten Thousand Poison Island occasionally, invited by the Divine Wind Gang Leader to lend a hand."
"Hahaha, with your level, if you are an unknown junior, what would that make us?"
Zuo Qingren twisted his neck and said solemnly:
"Taking money to remove calamities for others, I also enjoy dueling with experts, let’s have a match!"
He spat out a black light from his mouth, quickly morphing into a pitch-black sphere, hovering above his head, with an indistinguishable invisible wave shimmering down, a high-grade magical treasure.
Then he opened a golden cloth bag, from which a red light flew out and descended, transforming into a 135-level elite template’s corpse shaman with a crimson body.
Corpse shamans are a variant of zombies.
Normal zombies cannot retain pre-life intelligence and magic, they are merely physical forces, whereas corpse shamans are refined through special methods, not only retaining a certain intelligence but also preserving various magical abilities and divine techniques from pre-life, making their combat power far superior to zombies.
Zuo Qingren flipped his right hand, holding up a golden banner with dark golden demon flames, pointing it towards Su Yu, lightly shouting:
"Go!"
The Crimson Corpse let out an angered roar towards the sky, spewing a jet of Crimson Corpse Fire from its mouth.
At this moment, Su Yu had already summoned the Cyan Cloud Cover above his head, spitting out the Wind God’s Order to activate it.
The rune hovered above the Crimson Corpse’s head, and the gentle breeze fell to bind it. Then, Su Yu slashed with his dual swords while holding the Wind and Fire Fan, ready to unleash a powerful move to decisively defeat the Crimson Corpse.
But just then, Zuo Qingren took out a disk, tossed it, and it quickly expanded to a hundred meters in diameter, hovering in the air. The Polar Magnetic Power on the disk surged, and an immensely strong suction force emerged, causing the Thunderbolt Thousand Jins Dual Swords to lose control on the spot, shooting up and flying between the poles of the disk, unable to move no matter how he tried to manipulate them.
Having collected the dual swords, Zuo Qingren’s face revealed a satisfied smile:
"By taking away your flying swords, let’s see how you fight."
Su Yu was indeed surprised for a moment; who would have thought a Demon Cultivator would possess a magnetic type magical treasure.
The repelling and attracting forces of Yin Yang Magnetic Power greatly restrain flying swords refined from metal and iron.
However, he showed no expression, instead injecting mana into the Wind and Fire Fan, forcefully fanning it down, the turbulent wind and fire power surged, quickly forming a tornado column.
At the same time, he grabbed the Wind-Fire Vajra Wheel with his left hand and tossed it, the treasure wheel rapidly expanded.
However, as the newly expanded treasure wheel had not yet fully opened, the Yin Yang Magnetic Power from the Polar Magnetic Wheel surged again from above, sucking the Vajra Wheel back up.
"Damn!"
"Forgot that the metallic magical treasures count as well."
Being the first encounter, the experience was insufficient.
Fortunately, not all treasures in his hand were related to metal and iron; the Wind and Fire Fan was crafted from the Divine Bird True Feather, unaffected by Polar Magnetic forces.
Losing two flying swords and a Tier Seven Treasure would significantly diminish the strength of others, but Su Yu showed no panic, once again activating the Wind God’s Order, the Wind God Rune flashing above Zuo Qingren, the gentle breeze fell again. Yet, the always reliable Wind God’s Order met its match this time; as the breeze fell, the Ruyi Demon Pearl above Zuo Qingren rotated, invisible forces spread out, preventing the breeze from falling down, hence unable to bind him.
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, but didn’t slow down, urging the Wind and Fire Fan to expand the tornado column, while occasionally flicking his fingers, discreetly sending strands of sword energy into the ground.
Outside the battlefield, everyone’s expressions varied upon witnessing this scene.
In the royal palace, they were naturally overjoyed, delightfully saying:
"Mr. Zuo is indeed formidable. This kid’s swordsmanship is very strong; significantly weakening his prowess by neutralizing his flying swords, he definitely cannot be Mr. Zuo’s opponent."
A subordinate behind him excitedly said:
"This kid is the strongest on the opposing side; defeat him, and the others are even less of a match for Mr. Zuo. We’re bound to win this time."
The palace agreed but remained composed and not as excited as his subordinate:
"Stay calm, rather, wait for Mr. Zuo to claim victory first."
Meanwhile, on the Divine Wind Gang side, there were faces full of worry, Lin Qingfeng anxiously watching the arena, wanting to say something but fearing it might affect everyone else’s mindset.
Zhang Chao frowned, eyes full of concern:
"I didn’t expect this person to possess an extremely rare Polar Magnetic type magical treasure; Mr. Su is in danger."
Yao Chenfeng also nodded:
"Indeed, although Mr. Su still has an advanced treasure, his skills are too singular and easily restrained."
Li Qin held her hands tightly, but her face didn’t show despair.
Listening to their words, she didn’t fully despair compared to others, having leveled with Su Yu for several days, she had some understanding of Su Yu’s strength, holding onto a thread of hope.
She muttered softly to herself:
"He’s so strong; even without the flying swords, he can still wield some power with sword energy, he won’t be defeated this easily."
Beside her, Luo Qingchan glanced at her, expression indifferent as she looked up, showing no trace of worry in her eyes.
She didn’t know if Su Yu had any tricks left, but upon seeing Su Yu’s gaze, she inexplicably felt that Su Yu would definitely win.
This feeling was unfounded, much like when they leveled together previously, although never having coordinated, they’d cooperated seamlessly, needing just a glance to understand without communication, as if telepathically linked.
"Boom!"
Zuo Qingren’s Demon Fire Golden Banner in his hand fell like a mountain onto the flame tornado column. The violent impact caused the tornado column to distort greatly, with demonic fire from the banner surging into columns that soared into the sky. Countless spectral figures of demons sprang from the demonic flames, roaring as they lunged towards Su Yu.
The Cyan Cloud Cover lit up, its soft cyan light deflecting the distorted demon figures and piercing demonic sounds.
"Bang!"
The Crimson Corpse crashed headfirst into the Cyan Cloud Cover, battering it frantically, yet the faint cyan light didn’t even waver.
Opening its mouth, it spewed forth a torrent of Red Flame Corpse Qi, engulfing Su Yu in an instant.
Holding the upper hand, Zuo Qingren hovered high above, pointing, as rays of divine light of various colors flew out from behind his head. Grabbing with his hand, the seven lights merged into Seven Killing Divine Light, which plunged down like a spear.
"Boom!"
The fiery tornado column shook violently.
"Boom!"
Another Seven Killing Divine Light descended, causing the fiery tornado column to tilt; however, just then, the Wind and Fire Fan fanned out a surge of wind and fire power, stabilizing the tornado column by injecting into it.
Above was the suppressing Demon Fire Golden Banner, while Zuo Qingren continuously launched Seven Killing Divine Light attacks from below, ultimately, the fiery tornado column, being driven by a magical treasure spell and still halfway formed, couldn’t match the sturdy structure of a magical treasure, teetering on the brink under this relentless barrage.
And with Su Yu’s flying swords and a Tier Seven Treasure taken away, his means visibly waned.
Defensively, he had only the Cyan Cloud Cover to fend off the Crimson Corpse and demonic shadows from the Demon Fire Golden Banner, occasionally using Divine Thunder to push back the Crimson Corpse slightly, seemingly possessing only defensive power without any ability to retaliate.
To outsiders, it looked as though he was bound to lose.
