Curse Returns: Eight Extraordinary Skills? I lack nothing.

"Expand your domain." The pale knight's voice emanated from the pure white halo, hollow and cold, "The Eternal Throne of the False God."

A grayish-white light curtain exploded from the pale knight, spreading in all directions like exploding ink.

Wherever the light curtain passed, the forest silently collapsed, the rubble was crushed into dust, and the moonlight was swallowed up. Yuuto and Tsukumo were engulfed by the light curtain, and the world before them turned into a pure white, infinite space.

Boundless and directionless. The ground is a smooth, pure white mirror, reflecting the enormous, illusory crown woven from thorns and laurels overhead.

Pale white light dripped continuously from the edge of the crown.

"All defeated beings in the entire domain." The Pale Knight's voice surged from all directions. "All creatures within the domain are forcibly endowed with the status of defeated beings, unable to resist any of my commands. The plague and miasma will continue to strip you of your magical power and corrode your bodies. The Judgment of the False God will deliver a fatal blow to the defeated beings, one that is certain to hit and kill."

Yu Ren looked down at his hands. The golden light membrane of the mantra was still there, the Qi of the Reverse Life Triple was still flowing, and the electric arcs of the Thunder Technique were still dancing on his fingertips. But the light membrane had dimmed considerably, the Qi was flowing more slowly, and the electric arcs were weaker.

But he was not without a solution.

He stomped his left foot hard, the toe grinding into the pure white ground with a dull thud.

On the pure white mirror beneath their feet, a blue and white Bagua (Eight Trigrams) array suddenly exploded. The eight directions—Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui—lit up in sequence, their light spreading outwards like flowing water.

Nine palaces, twelve hours, Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, densely packed runes flow within the array, and a ghostly blue light tears open a space of its own within the pure white domain.

Feng Hou Qi Men - Starting the Formation.

Yu Ren opened his eyes, a pale blue halo appearing deep within his pupils, a thin layer of Qi surrounding him. His white hair fluttered in the windless air, his robes billowing in the wind.

The Feng Hou Qi Men technique can neutralize the effects of a domain, preventing it from locking onto itself.

However, against a complete and stable domain like the Pale Knight, relying solely on the Wind After Strange Gate is not enough to ensure safety. Yuuto released the hilt of his sword with his left hand and simultaneously gripped the Kikuichimonji with his right, holding the sword horizontally in front of him with the tip pointing to the left.

He lowered his waist, slightly bent his knees, took a half step forward with his left foot, and leaned his body slightly forward. This was the posture for drawing a sword.

New Yin Flow - Simplified Domain.

A pale golden halo suddenly appeared beneath his feet, with a radius of about two meters centered on him. Ancient runes flowed across the surface of the halo, enveloping him like an invisible barrier.

Within the barrier, the plague and miasma were isolated, the suppression of the defeated was neutralized, and all guaranteed hit effects vanished.

Chapter 136 Battle Ends

The Pale Knight's domain enveloped everything. In the pure white, infinite space, the illusory crown woven from thorns and laurel floated overhead, its pale light dripping down like raindrops.

The mirror-like surface of the ground reflected the figures of Yuuto and Tsukumo. Plague miasma slowly seeped out from the cracks in the mirror, like countless invisible hands trying to entangle their ankles.

Yuu looked down at the two array plates beneath his feet.

The blue and white Bagua diagram of Feng Hou Qi Men tore open a piece of its own territory on the pure white mirror, and the pale golden halo of the Xin Yin Liu Simple Domain was close to his body, keeping the plague and miasma out.

The Pale Knight stood in the center of the domain, his face, enveloped in a pure white halo, facing Yuuto. His armor was covered in cracks, from which silvery-gray liquid seeped, but the cracks were slowly healing.

“Your domain cannot confine me,” Yuuto said.

The Pale Knight did not answer. He stood up, his face, shrouded in a pure white aura, still expressionless. The bone spear slowly rose from his hand, hovering beside him, its tip aimed at Yuuto.

The pale light on the gun grew brighter and brighter, the sphere of light expanded to the size of a human head, and its rotation speed increased.

"The Judgment of a False God." The Pale Knight's voice emanated from the pure white aura, echoing as if from the deepest depths of the earth. "The only killing authority within this domain. The one judged will be stripped of all defenses and subjected to a fatal blow that is certain to hit and kill."

Yuuto's pupils contracted slightly. He felt an invisible force locking onto him, not from the front, but from all directions, from every corner of the domain.

That power ignored the Golden Light Mantra, the Reverse Life Triple Technique, the Wind After Qimen, and the New Yin Flow Simple Domain. It was a guaranteed hit, impossible to dodge or block.

Tsukumo's voice came from behind: "Yuto!"

Youren didn't turn around. He made a hand seal with his left hand, and the Feng Hou Qi Men Formation disc beneath his feet suddenly accelerated its rotation. (Luan Jin Tuo)

The flow of time within the formation changed abruptly.

The force that had been locking onto him suddenly froze, as if something had grabbed him. But he broke free after only a fraction of a second.

The Pale Knight's voice rang out again, calm and emotionless: "The Judgment of a False God."

Pure white light gathered from the illusory crown of the domain's dome, condensing into a pale pillar of light that fell straight down on Yuuto.

The beam of light was so fast that Yuuto didn't even have time to react.

But he didn't dodge, nor could he dodge. He stomped his left foot hard on the ground, and the Feng Hou Qi Men array plate beneath his feet expanded again. Blue and white light shot up from the array plate and collided with the pale light pillar.

The beams of light collided, but did not explode or create a shockwave. The two beams remained locked in a stalemate in mid-air, their pure white and blue-white colors intertwining, mutually consuming and canceling each other out.

Yu Ren gritted his teeth, his magical power surging wildly within his body. The array plate of Feng Hou Qi Men trembled violently, its runes flickering unpredictably.

The Pale Knight's False God Judgment continued; the pillar of light did not weaken but instead grew brighter. Fine beads of sweat appeared on Yuuto's forehead, the golden light membrane of the spell shimmered on his skin, and the Qi of the Reverse Life Triple Circulation accelerated within his body.

Ninety-nine Phoenix Wheels flew out from her side. Golden light slammed into the pale knight's back. The pale knight's body swayed, and the pure white aura flickered violently, but the pillar of light of the False God's Judgment did not break.

Ninety-Nine gritted her teeth and rammed the Phoenix Wheel again. Golden flames exploded on the Pale Knight's armor, blasting a crack in his back. The Pale Knight still didn't turn around, or even glance at Ninety-Nine.

“Yuto, the core of his domain is that crown!” Tsukumo shouted.

Yuuto raised his head and glanced at the enormous, illusory crown above him. The crown, woven from thorns and laurel, floated above the domain's dome, with pale light dripping continuously from its edges.

At the center of the crown was a pure white sphere of light. The sphere was not large, but the magical energy contained within it was the most concentrated in the entire area.

Yu Ren made a hand seal with his left hand, and the Feng Hou Qi Men Array disc under his feet started spinning faster again.

Eight-door transport.

There was a spatial entrance in each of the eight directions within the formation. One entrance swallowed Yuuto whole, while another entrance opened next to the crown.

Yuuto emerged from the spatial entrance beside the crown, hovering in mid-air. He drew his sword, Kikuichimonji, and lightning bolts emanated from it, with blue and white arcs of electricity leaping across the blade.

He swung his sword at the crown.

"when--"

A deafening roar echoed through the area. The crown remained perfectly still, while Yuuto was forced back several steps, his hands tingling. Not a single scratch was left on the crown's surface.

"The judgment of the false god is not subject to external interference," the pale knight's voice came from below. "You cannot shatter it."

Yu Ren ignored him. He sheathed his sword, made a hand seal with his left hand, and activated the Spirit Binding and Commanding Technique at full power.

Several black rifts opened in the void, and dozens of cursed spirits poured out, lunging at the crown. They tore at the crown, scratched at it, but the crown remained unmoved. The Pale Knight didn't even glance at them.

Ninety-nine phoenix wheels flew in from below, their golden light striking the crown and exploding into a ring of golden flames.

The crown swayed slightly, then steadied itself. Ninety-Nine's gaze hardened: "Try again."

The Phoenix Wheel crashed into the crown once more, this time with even brighter golden light and a more devastating impact.

The crown shook violently, and the pale light at its edges dimmed slightly, but the pillar of light of the False God's Judgment did not break.

Yu Ren landed back on the ground from the spatial entrance, stepping onto the array plate of Feng Hou Qi Men.

The beam of light from the false god's judgment was still locked in a stalemate with his blue and white beam of light.

Yu Ren took a deep breath, and the Qi of the Reverse Life Triple Realm accelerated its circulation within his body. A shimmering white light emanated from beneath his skin, brighter than before. Arcs of lightning exploded beneath his feet, lifting him into the air.

Yu Ren formed hand seals, and the Feng Hou Qi Men Array disc beneath his feet reached its maximum rotation speed.

“Eight Gates Transport,” Yuuto said in a low voice.

Eight spatial entrances opened simultaneously around him, each one aligned with the crown. Yu Ren retrieved eight sword energy shuttles from his system space and threw them into the eight spatial entrances at the same time.

Eight sword energy shuttles struck the crown from eight different directions, and golden flames exploded on the crown, causing it to shake violently.

The Pale Knight's body swayed slightly. The pure white halo dimmed a bit, and the pillar of light of the False God's Judgment weakened as well.

Ninety-Nine did not miss the opportunity. The Phoenix Wheel flew out from her side, and the golden light smashed into the pale knight's chest, knocking him to one knee.

"Yuto, the crown and his body are connected!" Tsukumo shouted. "Hitting his body will also weaken the crown!"

Yuuto didn't answer; he was already doing it. He used lightning to teleport, his figure disappearing from mid-air and appearing before the Pale Knight.

The kikuichimonji thrust straight in, the blade piercing the pale knight's chest, cutting through the armor, the bone armor, and the soft tissue. A silvery-gray liquid gushed from the wound.

Yuuto didn't draw his sword. Instead, he made a hand seal with his left hand, and a bolt of lightning shot out from his palm, striking the pale knight squarely in the face.

The pale knight tilted his head back, and a pure white halo flashed violently.

Yuuto drew his sword, took a few steps back, and used lightning teleportation to reappear beside the Pale Knight. He unleashed a horizontal slash with the Kikuichimonji, the blade slicing through the Pale Knight's waist.

The blade sliced ​​into the armor, into the bone armor, into the soft tissue. Silvery-gray liquid gushed out again.

The pale knight's body began to tremble, the pure white halo flickered, and the pillar of light of the false god's judgment also dimmed.

Yuuto gave him no chance to catch his breath. He used lightning teleportation to strike one blow after another, each strike precisely slicing through the cracks in the armor.

His blade was incredibly fast, so fast that the Pale Knight couldn't parry it, so fast that even the Ninety-Nine Phoenix Wheels couldn't keep up with his pace.

The pale knight knelt on the ground, fragments of his armor scattered everywhere, and silvery-gray liquid gushed from countless wounds.

The pure white halo had dimmed to almost nothing, and the pillar of light of the False God's Judgment had been completely extinguished. Yuuto stood before him, Kikuichimonji held horizontally in front of him, the tip of the blade aimed at the pale knight's throat.

He didn't rush to draw his sword, but looked down at the mutilated body kneeling before him.

“You lost,” Yuuto said.

The pale knight raised his head; the pure white halo had dissipated, revealing his face beneath.

It wasn't a human face; it had no features, no expression, just a pale, smooth, porcelain-like mask. The mask was covered in cracks, from which a silvery-gray light shone.

"You can't kill me." The Pale Knight's voice came from behind the mask, still calm, without anger or fear. "I've won again and again. You can't kill me."

Yu Ren didn't reply. He sheathed his sword, made a hand seal with his left hand, and the Feng Hou Qi Men Array disc beneath his feet began to spin faster again.

The clapper of the clapper is in disarray.

The flow of time within the formation changed abruptly. The pale knight's body stiffened abruptly, as if he had been dragged into viscous amber.

Yuuto did not take the opportunity to attack. He could not directly cause damage in the Chaotic Golden Tuo state, but that was enough for him to do something else.

He retrieved the Spirit Binding Lock from his system space. The dark golden chains coiled around his palm, emitting a faint golden light.

He hurled the Soul-Binding Chains at the Pale Knight, the chains drawing a golden arc in the air before wrapping around the Pale Knight's neck.

The chains tightened, and dark golden runes lit up.

The pale knight gripped the chains, but the effects of the Chaotic Golden Bell were still in effect, making his movements incredibly slow, as if they had been slowed down dozens of times.

Silver-gray mist surged from his palm, enveloping the chains, but this time the chains did not break. Dark gold runes flickered within the mist, stubbornly shining.

Ninety-nine Phoenix Wheels flew in from the side, their golden light striking the Pale Knight's head and blasting a deeper crack in his mask.

The pale knight's body swayed, and the pure white aura completely extinguished.

Yuuto loosened the Spirit Binding Lock, but the chains tightened on their own, constricting the pale knight's neck even more.
