64 -37: The Daffodil of Domination_2
“Who knows, it could all be an illusion,” the woman with black hair raised her finger, “Wandering white light.”
The white flowers covering the Dragon Head all turned towards the Superpower User at once, shooting countless pure white beams of light from their buds!
Gongsun Ce immediately drew back, and his arm, which had previously been immobile, regained freedom just as he retreated.
He flew into the air to dodge the deadly beams, while simultaneously creating a white substance hammer to smash down—
“Lower beings cannot dodge my attack.”
This time, the entire body of the Superpower User disobeyed its master’s command.
Gongsun Ce had barely taken flight when he became unable to move at all, becoming a sitting duck floating in the air, and the beams of light from the narcissus were about to pierce his body!
The white beams were dense and innumerable, far too many to count.
To be struck by such an attack all at once, even Mr.
Shiyu would likely not be able to save him.
He had to think of something, with his body not responding to his commands…!
“White Substance Barrier!”
The giant hammer, not yet used in an attack, exploded in Gongsun Ce’s hands and turned into a white, sturdy wall in front of him.
This incredibly hard barrier blocked the majority of the attacks at a critical moment; only a few beams at the very front penetrated his body, leaving several burning wounds!
“Cough…!”
The Superpower User fell weakly downwards, then he noticed that he finally regained control of his body.
Gongsun Ce barely managed to stand on the dragon scales using his abilities, covering the multiple wounds between his chest and abdomen with his hand.
Two minutes and thirty seconds passed, and he hadn’t managed to inflict any damage on Shiyu Ling, but instead, he further injured himself.
The woman with black hair smoothed her hair and spoke disinterestedly, “The words of a lower being cannot deceive me; I much prefer the term ‘big sister’…
though the outcome is the same.
You, who should have died, are here fighting with me, it seems I showed a flaw earlier on.
Was it because of this deliberately revealed small power?”
He thought back to their first meeting.
At the student dormitory, the Hunter had reacted to his lies.
For someone with keen intuition, this was a reasonable reaction.
But, what came after was illogical.
After the Tierlos Battle ended, he fooled everyone with Mo Yuankai’s identity, and after the dinner at the ramen shop, he concealed his exchanges with Mr.
Shiyu.
If she truly had keen intuition, she should have noticed such anomalies.
Going further during their descent underground, he managed to get through with ambiguous words, which also shouldn’t have been a problem.
Then the answer was simple.
“Obvious lies would be detected, but omitting part of the truth or speaking only superficial truths poses no problem.
Rather than intuition, it’s more like some sort of lie-detection mechanism.
I didn’t pay much attention to it, after all, everyone has their secrets, and it’s normal to hide a few things from someone you’ve just met half a day…
But there were too many suspicious things about you, and I had to start doubting you.”
“I see, there were errors in other details as well.”
If it were Alice Adar standing on the other side, the occasionally careless yet headstrong Hunter would have eagerly pressed for answers to her own mistakes.
“Where did I slip up?
I thought my performance was perfect?”
The Superpower User would typically interject sharply, then they would go through each point in detail, almost like confirming answers to each other’s guesses…
In the end, the Hunter would smile wryly, shake her head, and say, “I underestimated you,” then offer some seemingly mature compliments.
But now, he was not facing the blue-haired Alice but the black-haired Shiyu Ling.
There was no familiar smile on her face, only an unmistakable weariness.
She must be tired too, just like himself at this moment.
Her voice reached his ears.
“It’s time to end this.
You must have realized in the fight just now that you cannot defeat me.
It’s good you’re still alive; take your friend and leave this place, Gongsun Ce.” Shiyu Ling smiled, “Otherwise, you’ll have to die once more.”
“How strange, you talk as if I’m injured,”
Gongsun Ce brushed his bloodstained clothes, beneath them no wound was visible, only a few holes filled with white substance.
He spread his hands like a magician taking a bow, “Ta-da, I’ve filled them with white matter!”
“I’m at a loss for words.
If previously you were running towards a vortex, now you are jumping into the abyss of your own accord.”
Shiyu Ling offered him a smile, “Since you now stand in my way, die once more, Superpower User.”
The white flower once again shot out a beam of light of the same color, and Gongsun Ce raised his arm, ready to summon the White Matter Barrier—
“An inferior cannot resist my attack.”
Not only his body, but this time his powers also defied his command.
The solid and stable wall of white matter failed to form, and the relatively fragile telekinetic barrier couldn’t be formed either.
Gongsun Ce was unable to make any defense!
“Defense…!”
At the critical moment, the superpower user’s body was thrown diagonally upward!
His legs were pierced with holes the size of bullet holes, and the smell of charred flesh filled the air—undoubtedly a severe injury, yet Gongsun Ce unnaturally started to laugh.
“It seems that even your powers are not omnipotent, Impermanence Law Enforcer.”
“It doesn’t matter what you think.”
Shiyu Ling lifted his hand and pointed forward; several beams of light converged together to form a white cannon.
“Blind Light Fire.”
Getting hit by this was not something that could be patched up with white matter as a minor injury.
Should he defend or evade?
The superpower user had to make a quick decision.
The current situation was different from when dealing with the Sky-piercing Snake, he did not have the luxury of an optimal choice…
However, battle was never a multiple-choice question.
Imitating the other’s movements, Gongsun Ce pointed his fingers forward.
“White Matter Re-Light Fist!”
A vast amount of white substance formed into a giant fist, an emblem of primal violence, unflinchingly meeting the light fire head-on, breaking through it, and hurtling toward the distant dark-haired woman!
“Inferiors cannot approach my body.” Shiyu Ling did not panic but issued a new command, “The ability of an inferior cannot…?!”
He had only gotten halfway through his second command when his expression changed.
The shockwave from the giant object’s attack sent her hair dancing in the air, and the dark-haired woman rolled on the ground with no regard for her appearance, narrowly avoiding the white matter giant fist!
For the first time, her face showed a look of astonishment: “What is this…?!”
The gray-haired youth stood still, thoughtful.
He couldn’t move his body in the slightest…
yet, the scene that unfolded before him provided him with a brand new inspiration.
“That’s right, you wouldn’t know, not even Miss Qin is aware of it.”
Spiritual Image·Manifestation was Shiyu Ling’s Impermanence Skill, and Impermanence Skills often related to the appearance of the soul.
The Shadow Orchid was also her power—what had he analyzed from it?
Flowers blooming from the shadows, disdain for the environment and others, a desire to escape, seeing oneself as above others like a flower…
She did not like jokes about her age…
a few minutes ago, on the brink of death, she also heard something intriguing…
a desire to become a god…
Inferiors, abilities, commands, attacks that successfully landed…
He slowly said, “Your command was wrong.
Because this white substance, it’s not my power.”
Then, the superpower user laughed.
“Inferiors and sovereigns, ha!
I get it now, this is indeed a terribly overbearing power!”
Shiyu Ling frowned.
“Your tone now is as detestable as that man from the Empire.”
“Please, I don’t like that guy at all.”
3 minutes and 56 seconds had passed, and the superpower user was in no rush.
He believed that now, he could surely solve all problems.
Gongsun Ce adjusted his glasses, “Let’s uncover it then, Shiyu Ling’s Spiritual Image·Manifestation, what exactly is its true nature!”
