I Come to Teach You Cultivation - Chapter 349 - 32: The Ultimate Skill, the Dawn of Dao (2/3)
Almost at the same moment Wu Peng unleashed the [Barrier Realm] and pulled Bahu into his spiritual domain.
Li Boyang also appeared in the village with Golden Horn and Silver Horn, only moments apart.
"Is it the same barrier as Wu Xian’s?"
"No, this is the complete version, it seems that what Wu Xian used last time wasn’t the full version of the barrier."
Looking around, Li Boyang quickly figured out what had happened here.
And judging from how the surrounding villagers were unaffected,
the great witch who appeared here seemed different from the "Great Xia Witches" Li Boyang knew.
"Barrier?"
"What kind of barrier could be so powerful?"
Silver Horn tilted his head and looked around, unable to detect any traces, and asked.
In Silver Horn’s understanding, barriers were just a small trick for witches to entertain themselves, neither as profound as arrays nor as convenient as talismans.
"Don’t be too arrogant, learn to be humble."
"If something has lasted till now, it has its strengths and advantages."
"Moreover, the barrier, which is unique to wizards, has been perfected to the extreme of skill over thousands of years."
——The extreme of skill is the Dao.
No one understood this better than Li Boyang.
The great witch present today was evidently, like Wu Xian, approaching or even reaching this state.
"Is this the unique ’Barrier Technique’ of Great Xia?"
At this moment, Golden Horn spoke, a hint of worry flashing inadvertently in his eyes.
In the system of witches, although barriers are a common form of witchcraft, it doesn’t mean many people master it.
Quite the contrary, if it weren’t for those great witches dedicated to tribal development, willing to sacrifice a lot of time and effort,
ordinary witches would never bother to learn this witchcraft, which offers little personal improvement.
However, the current barrier is entirely different from the barriers Golden Horn knew.
Whether it is its deploy-at-will characteristic, or its convenience without needing many external aids...
All suggest that this barrier is unlike any common one and possibly one of the unique barrier techniques of Great Xia.
"The great witch attempting to refine the Elixir of Immortality..."
"Even if it’s just an yet unsuccessful, seemingly with severe side effects Elixir of Immortality, they are undoubtedly top-tier great witches of this world."
"If such a great witch were not a witch of Great Xia, that would truly be strange!"
With undisguised curiosity, Li Boyang slowly extended his palm forward towards the three.
"That old fellow Wu Xian hid it so deep to prevent me from learning this barrier, and ran so fast..."
"He didn’t even fully deploy his barrier during the battle, truly going to great lengths."
"But now, let me see what the essence of this barrier really is!"
Before his words even finished, a clear shattering sound suddenly came from what seemed to be thin air.
Crack...
Accompanied by visible cracks, a seemingly mysterious space-time realm unfolded before the three of them.
It was a domain made up of countless plants and trees.
A vaguely gigantic Undying Tree could be seen supporting the sky and the earth, becoming the foundation of this barrier.
"Eh? It’s a barrier deployed from oneself?"
To deploy a barrier, just like an array, requires an array eye and array map for support.
But the current barrier had forsaken all external aids and was deployed with the person as the support.
Or to be precise, the special barrier’s array eye and map were the caster themselves.
"Another witchcraft using the human body as the base for transformation, why don’t I find that strange at all?"
Unconsciously thought of Xiao Yue, who had once been transformed into a "Living Witch Curse".
Li Boyang murmured as he gently opened the Celestial Eye on his forehead.
Unlike his previous battle with Wu Xian, this time Li Boyang was observing the barrier from outside.
So he could see the essence of the [Barrier Realm] more clearly.
Using the flesh as a foundation, supported by conviction, manifesting one’s inner vision and desires into reality.
The [Barrier Realm] indeed broadened Li Boyang’s horizons, even stirring up numerous inspirations in his heart, showcasing its magical and mysterious side.
"A barrier realm completely isolated from external influences, constructed from self-belief..."
"Why does it seem so familiar? Is it the personal version of the Divine Land Barrier?"
Eagerly examining every composition of the [Barrier Realm].
Li Boyang suddenly flipped his hand, and a vivid eye appeared in the center of his palm.
This eye was an imitation of his Celestial Eye, transformed using the Thousand Transformations Divine Power.
Buzz...
As the solitary eye in his palm gradually penetrated the cracked fissures, the situation inside the barrier was revealed in detail to Li Boyang.
This unique observation method far surpassed simply using the Celestial Eye.
...........................
"What is that?"
Promptly, Bahu, who was fighting Wu Peng, raised his head to gaze at the sky.
He saw dense cracks like spider webs appear out of nowhere, seemingly trying to tear apart the entire world.
Subsequently, a giant eye forcefully squeezed through the barrier along those cracks, with eyes filled with unabashed curiosity and a desire to explore.
Upon seeing that eye, Bahu even forgot to continue fighting.
For under the gaze of the giant eye, Bahu felt like an ant trapped under a jar.
Especially that blatant curiosity and probing desire was particularly creepy.
"Is this the power of a Celestial Being?"
If Bahu’s sensations were so pronounced, it would be even truer for the real owner of the [Barrier Realm].
Wu Peng, who also ceased his attack, felt as if his body was about to be torn apart.
Cuts akin to those dense spider-web-like cracks began appearing on his body surface little by little.
This was the price of using the flesh to bear the barrier—once the barrier was broken, he too suffered similar injuries.
However, more than the physical injuries, what threatened Wu Peng now was the fracture of his Heart Image.
His will destroyed...
Faith and hope stripped away...
No courage to forge ahead...
What could ordinarily only be descriptive words, were now vividly presented on Wu Peng’s face.
Clearly, he was still the same person, yet Wu Peng’s face now bore the waning air of an old man, devoid of any Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
Most evidently, even though Wu Peng was not yet in dire circumstances, and his power remained largely unaffected,
his heart lacked any intent to counterattack or struggle, just standing dazedly in place awaiting death.
As a result, the once-supporting Undying Tree of the [Barrier Realm] also began to wither rapidly at a visible speed.
This was an excellent testament to the [Barrier Realm] being broken, and a heart turning to ash. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
In many ways, this was why the great witches of Great Xia would never easily utilize the [Barrier Realm] unless absolutely necessary.
More than dwindling strength or physical harm, the flaws in the heart were the most fatal.
A great witch losing the will for improvement and courageous advancement would be more unbearable than death.
