Swallowing the Stars: Start with an Enlightenment System

"Interesting. Although you are skilled in whip and spear techniques, they seem ordinary in the face of my swordsmanship. What is rare is that you switch between the two so smoothly and naturally that it is difficult for me to predict your next move."

Wu Li's tone carried a hint of admiration.

This is the first time he has been forced to retreat in a direct confrontation since the start of the Genius Battle.

"You flatter me. I'm not so arrogant as to think I can beat you with just these tricks," Wuxing said slowly, his expression solemn.

"Neither of us needs to test each other anymore."

"good!"

Before he finished speaking, Wu Li made another move, and nine figures that were exactly the same as his appeared beside him at the same time.

"Oh my god! Nine more! That's ten against one now!"

Many spectators couldn't help but stand up, staring in shock at the scene on the stage; they had never seen anything like it before.

This is precisely the secret technique "Thunder Illusion Body" that Wu Li cultivates!

Although the nine illusory bodies are not physical entities, they can freely switch positions with the original body. Normal people would feel their scalp tingle just by facing these nine figures that are difficult to distinguish from reality.

A glint of light flashed in Baiyuan's eyes.

This Wu Li is indeed extraordinary, worthy of the title of the strongest star in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

This one move alone is enough to put most opponents in a tough fight.

Of course, for him, it's just a matter of paying a little attention.

Just when everyone thought that Wuxing was about to be defeated, a vast deep-sea phantom suddenly appeared, merging with the laws and domains, and actually creating a hazy world on the arena!

"The Realm of the Deep Sea!"

The moment the illusory form touched the phantom of this world, it vanished without a trace.

Wu Li frowned slightly, and both his real body and his illusory body retreated backward at the same time.

In terms of control over the domain, he is clearly far inferior to Wuxing.

"kill!"

The tide of battle turned in an instant.

The invisible weapon in his hand changed shape unpredictably, and together with the illusory world covering the entire field, he actually turned defense into offense, pressing forward step by step.

Wu Li, relying on his extreme speed and fierce lightning laws, tore apart the deep-sea phantom time and time again, but the phantom kept healing and regenerating like a living thing.

"Thunder Cone!"

With a thought, Wu Li summoned a weapon powered by his mind.

Like Baiyuan's Juehe Sword, it is also of the fourth tier.

boom!

Wuxing was knocked back several steps by the attack, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Telekinetic weapons pose a great threat to him; a slight misstep could determine the outcome of the battle.

At this point, the two were at an impasse.

Wu Li has advantages in laws, speed, and strength, and also has telekinetic weapons to attack in conjunction with her.

The Formless One relies on the masterful use of secret techniques and domains to restrict Wu Li's illusory body transformations. In addition, the ever-changing attack methods of the weapons are equally difficult to deal with.

The battle on the field was in full swing, and the audience cheered loudly.

Only one person remained calm.

"They've reached their limit... It seems I overestimated them." Baiyuan shook his head slightly.

If he hadn't undergone the two months of "devil training" by those two immortal powerhouses, the outcome of his encounter with them would have been uncertain.

But for him now, defeating the two of them is not difficult.

Finally, after a fierce battle that lasted for half an hour, the duel ended in victory for Wu Li.

To be precise, it was the invisible force that couldn't withstand such a high level of exertion first, and ultimately it was exhausted and defeated.

"What a pity. If he could have held on a little longer, he might have been the one to win."

"Why so many 'what ifs'? If it weren't for the invisible secret technique that happened to counter Wu Li's illusionary body, the battle would have been over long ago with just those nine figures that shifted between reality and illusion."

Just as the audience was buzzing with discussion, Baiyuan's participation announcement came through.

"It's my turn."

He slowly rose to his feet, his gaze calm.

The surrounding noise and the fierce battle that had just taken place seemed irrelevant to him.

Baiyuan was like a sword slowly drawn from its sheath, its sharpness not readily apparent, yet it brought a subtle stillness to the surroundings.

His battle is about to begin.

Soon, Baiyuan stepped onto his own arena.

Kui was already standing on the opposite side. When he saw Baiyuan appear, a hint of undisguised contempt appeared on his face.

"You haven't even grasped the fundamental laws. I advise you not to make a fool of yourself and to admit defeat as soon as possible."

"The battle hasn't even begun, why rush to conclusions?"

Bai Yuan's tone was calm, revealing no emotion.

"Looks like you're determined to fight." Kui grinned, a faint crimson aura rising around him. "Very well, I'll use my absolute strength to show you what true difference there is!"

Inside the viewing area, the spectators from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire unconsciously clenched their fists.

No matter how you look at it, Baiyuan has almost no chance of winning this battle.

"That's a puppet that has comprehended the Law of Fire!"

"Although Baiyuan is strong, he hasn't yet reached the level of the origin. The gap is too great..."

These people spoke with a suppressed sense of worry.

However, another group of people suddenly stood up, their necks stiff, and shouted loudly towards the ring:

"Baiyuanchong!"

"Fight to the bitter end! Let them witness what a miracle truly is!"

Roars and arm swings ignited a spark of belief in the dimly lit spectator area.

Even though reason told them there was no hope, they still chose to shout, as if their voices could penetrate the barrier and convey their desperate belief to the boy standing on the field with a knife.

Suddenly, Baiyuan felt a slight stirring in his heart, and a realization flowed through the depths of his consciousness like a clear spring.

He slowly raised his head, the composure in his eyes gradually fading, and then revealing a sharpness like a blade being drawn from its sheath.

"Hmm? This aura..."

The puppet god's expression hardened, and he subconsciously took a half step back.

The flames that had been rising around him began to flicker, as if being pressed down by an invisible wind.

"What exactly did you do?!" Kui demanded in a stern voice.

On the battlefield, momentum is an invisible weapon.

A true strongman can suppress his opponent's mind and greatly reduce his strength simply by relying on his will and fighting spirit.

At this moment, what emanated from Baiyuan was an almost solid sense of oppression, calm, heavy, and with a resolute determination to cut off everything, even causing subtle ripples in Kui's heart.

Baiyuan's voice rang out calmly, each word clear and distinct:

"Originally, I only wanted to fight you hard, then pretend to be defeated, and smoothly enter the defeated group to fight against more strong opponents, thereby honing myself."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the deafening shouts of the Black Dragon Mountain viewing area in the distance, past countless clenched fists and burning eyes.

Those shouts, that silent tension, that burning anticipation, suddenly became more than just distant sounds.

"But now, I understand."

"When I stand here, I represent more than just myself. Behind me is the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and the blood and dignity of the Blade Clan that have flowed for countless generations."

With each word he uttered, his aura intensified.

"Therefore, I absolutely cannot lose this battle!"

As the last word was uttered, the entire arena seemed to tremble slightly.

It was neither a fluctuation of laws nor an outflow of power, but a pure, firm, and unshakable "momentum" that completely enveloped the battlefield.

Kui was startled at first, and then a surge of rage rushed into his heart.

He was actually shaken by the other party's momentum! Even his composure began to waver!

This was an immense humiliation for him!

"Ridiculous! No matter how eloquently you speak, do you think you can comprehend the fundamental laws on the spot? Watch me annihilate you with a single punch!"
