Chapter 147 - Energy Dot (2/2)
Ula finally gave up and nodded, and in fact, she was feeling internally happy even though she didn't show it on her face. Both Ao and Ula are focused more on speed. Especially Ula, who can use Tribulation Lightning, so they didn't take that long to find another door with 4 slots available. Just like that, there were now three groups. Krune's group, Arlan's group, and Ao's group.
---
Back at the door where Yusa, Joty, and Arlan were staying, there were also another 7 contestants, making a total of 10 contestants for only 3 slots. Arlan and Yusa, evidently, were not very worried. They can see that the majority had spent a lot of energy and had quite a few injuries. So their situation was the best between them all. Only Joty was still nervous, just how far this luck situation can bring him? He doesn't know!
The door then finally activated, and the slots were free to enter. Arlan and Yusa, as the cultivators in the best condition, didn't have a problem to secure a defender position in one slot each. As for Joty, he wasn't able to do so, but with a weird turn of events, he still became an attacker.
But there was a problem here. His opponent is definitely much stronger than him! It was a guy from a planet called Tareili, ranked 233th in the Divine Path Sect territory. Of course, the guy didn't know that Joty wasn't as strong as him, so he kept his distance and waited to see what Joty would do first. All he needs is to wait 10 minutes, after all!
Joty was also lost at the moment, not that he is a coward, but that after seeing all the battles from the 90th floor upwards, he knows he is far from being anyone's match! Still, as the attacker, there is only one way for him to advance, and that is to defeat the guy in front of him and only then start his 10 minutes of defense. This is something that Arlan and Yusa can't help him with.
Joty then greeted his teeth and charged forward, but just as he was about to use his first skill, he saw something weird. There was a small energy dot floating close to his opponent's waist. For a second, Joty wondered if this was some defense skill from his opponent. But suddenly, that small dot started to pulse and change positions according to what his opponent did.
But that wasn't what caught Joty's attention, what really surprised him was that every time that energy dot pulsed, his dantian pulsed together. It felt like both of them were connected somehow. As mentioned before, Joty is a Core Formation Realm cultivator, it's just that in the Illusion Realm, he can only show the power of a peak Foundation Establishment. However, his connection with his soul inside his core is still there, even though he can't use its power.
”Is it telling me to target that point?”
As if answering his question, the energy dot and his dantian pulsed once more as soon as he finished asking. Joty had no time to think anymore and decided that it was worth a try.
”I already have no chance of winning anyway, then so be it.”
Joty gathered his energy and attacked directly at that point. Even though the dot kept moving, Joty felt like he knew where it would go, and his weapon and skill followed the path perfectly.
His opponent noticed Joty's attack and immediately used a defensive skill. But he was surprised, he could feel that Joty's attack power wasn't anything significant. Still, he didn't let his guard down. In his mind, anyone who got this far definitely isn't weak. So he put his all into defending that attack since his opponent might just be faking weakness.
What happened next made the blood of Joty's opponent go cold! His skill, which he was very confident in, suddenly crumbled like a sandcastle! It didn't put any resistance against Joty's attack at all! Joty's opponent wanted to dodge, but it was as if Joty's weapon was alive. it didn't matter what he did, the weapon followed him. It destroyed any defense he could put on that time.
”Swish!”
One slash and Joty's opponent Dantian was destroyed! Joty's opponent eyes opened wide! The other cultivators and demon beast who stayed outside also had the same reaction! But the one who was closest to have his eyes coming out of their sockets was Joty himself!
”What the hell?!!!”
Joty couldn't believe what just happened. How could he have won this fight so easily? What was the energy dot? What does it have to do with his Dantian? What is that feeling of connection between him and that dot? Joty had thousands of questions, but no one to answer!
But he also noticed something, the dot that showed him the way through the enemy's flaw disappeared! Not to mention that Joty doesn't even know how it appeared to start with! Still, everyone outside saw how Joty easily defeated his opponent in one move with such a weak attack. They all immediately lost any hope of defeating him. What if he decides to go all out? It is already good that he showed mercy and didn't kill the guy!
10 minutes passed fast, and Yusa, Arlan, and Joty also appeared inside the 99th floor.
As for Ao and Ula? Both of them are strong to start with, and with a door with four slots on top of that, they quickly got a slot and entered the next level as well.
The 99th floor! Also, the last one! Those who enter the next will have advanced into the next test.
