The Phantom Prison

“You’ve lost.”

Xiao Shengyun raised his bone longsword and pointed its glimmering tip at Yan Wuyue, a victorious smile spreading across his face.

However, after two seconds, Xiao Shengyun’s expression suddenly turned into one of confusion. He turned to the judge not far away and asked, “Why haven’t you announced my victory?”

The referee didn’t answer. Instead, he raised his chin and gestured for Xiao Shengyun to look to his left.

!!

With a frown, Xiao Shengyun turned to his left. He saw that Zhou Mingrui had already broken the seal and was looking at him quietly.

“You shouldn’t have been able to escape so quickly.” Xiao Shengyun said as he kept his sword.

“Actually, I could have broken your seal back then. I just wanted to see what you were up to, so I pretended to be sealed by you.” Zhou Mingrui shrugged.

Xiao Shengyun was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red. He gritted his teeth and said, “Do you think I’m that easy to fool?”

Zhou Mingrui shrugged again. “I’ve already told you the truth. There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me. Why not you come and fight me to really see what I meant?”

Xiao Shengyun’s face darkened, but he quickly regained his confidence and said, “I’ve already copied all your attributes and skills, so I’m very curious where your confidence is coming from.”

Zhou Mingrui let out an arrogant laugh. “I saw your ability just now. But do you really think that you’ll be able to win just by copying my attributes and skills? ”

As he heard Zhou Mingrui’s outright mockery, a trace of anger appeared on Xiao Shengyun’s face.

Without further hesitation, Xiao Shengyun’s face was instantly covered by a bone mask, and the phantom energy on his body appeared again.

“Why don’t you believe me?”

Zhou Mingrui shook his head. At the same time, he too donned the bone armor and phantom energy began to envelop his body as well.

Xiao Shengyun’s stepped forward, his figure moving much faster than before.

The both of them instantly exchanged blows, and Xiao Shengyun’s bone longsword and Zhou Mingrui’s Nether Flame Bone Blade collided heavily.

Though both weapons were made of bone, they let out a ringing sound that sounded like metal colliding.

At the same time, the surging phantom energy from both sides also collided, creating ripples of energy fluctuations.

“Interesting. You actually managed to completely duplicate my attributes.”

Zhou Mingrui showed a look of interest. This was the first time he had encountered such an opponent.

“So I’m very curious about one thing.”

The next moment, the Nether Flame Bone Blade in his hand suddenly ignited with a translucent, midnight blue flame, and a bone-chilling cold immediately emerged from it.

“Will you able able to resist my full strength? I haven’t had an opponent who could make me use all my strength in a life or death fight.”

As he said that, Zhou Mingrui seemed to have released himself from some kind of shackles. The energy in his body began to stir violently.

[Phantom Riot]

[Active skill: Use a secret technique to stimulate the phantom energy in your body to enter a berserk state. For a short period of time, your energy attribute will be increased by 30% to 50% in all aspects. The duration depends on the level of enhancement.]

On the other end, Xiao Shengyun also activated his skill without hesitation.

[Phantom Riot (Replica)]

The intense energy fluctuations from both sides immediately began to show as they faced each other in the air.

“The energy of these two, no, of Yan Wuyue’s summoned spirit, is incredibly powerful. They are not yet Gold grade, but are already as powerful as Gold grades.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen a Summoner’s spirit surpass the Summoner by so much.”

“Well, I’ve seen such situations before, but that was a Summoner who was a complete support type. Yan Wuyue’s combat power is obviously too strong for her to be a support Summoner.”

“I didn’t believe it at first when they said that the two of them were the main saviors of the secret realm incident. Now, it seems like it could be true.”

“Yeah, the four major Research Institutes definitely have their eyes on her. Small families like us can forget about inviting her to join.”

“Right, that’s such a pity.”

Below the stage, the observers and instructors who witnessed Zhou Mingrui’s strength could not help but exclaim in admiration.

And on the stage, the phantom energy around Zhou Mingrui began to burn like flames. However, he did not feel any heat.

If someone were to approach him at this time, they would experience a cold, suffocating feeling that could freeze their soul.

“Since you’ve copied my skill, you should be familiar with the effects of my other two skills.”

“Do you want to use it directly? ” Zhou Mingrui asked indifferently. “Or do you want to test your own strength against mine first?”

Xiao Shengyun looked at Zhou Mingrui. The longsword in his hand began to burn with midnight blue phantom flames as well. He raised his longsword and pointed it at Zhou Mingrui. His intention was clear.

“Good, very good. I understand what you mean. It seems like I have underestimated you.”

The moment he said that, the phantom energy surrounding Zhou Mingrui suddenly froze, as if time had stopped abruptly.

Simultaneously, a ripple spread out from beneath Zhou Mingrui and instantly enveloped Xiao Shengyun.

The space around the two of them began to distort, and then a massive amount of phantom energy condensed and began forming strange words in the air. These words appeared to be pieced together by bones.

[Phantom Prison (Active): In combat, quickly channel the energy of the other world and transform the battlefield into a phantom prison.]

[Note 1: All attributes will be increased by 10% in the Phantom Prison. All enemies will be damaged by phantom energy once every second, and the percentage of the damage will be converted into energy for the user.]

[Note 2: Enemies who are heavily injured in the Phantom Prison have a chance of being invaded by phantom energy and turning into phantom puppets.]

[Note 3: Any loss of life in the Phantom Prison will be converted into phantom essence for the user to absorb, and increase the user’s attributes by a certain amount (can be stacked) until the user exits or closes the Phantom Prison.]

All the spectators below the stage were stunned. In a split second, Zhou Mingrui and Xiao Shengyun became enveloped by a dark space.

“Is this a spatial domain skill? Wait no, it’s not at that level yet!”

“You’re right. Regardless, it’s more powerful than the domain skill Yan Wuyue used before. Look, it’s already affecting the surrounding spatial structure.”

“I can’t believe this. Yan Wuyue is already powerful enough, but who knew her summoned spirit was even more powerful!”

“The four major Research Institutes must be having a headache over how to compete with the other three research institutes for all these talents. Hahaha.”

“You’re right. I’m also quite curious. In the past, it was basically others who begged to join them. Now, it’s going to be their turn to go and beg others.”

While everyone was whispering to one another, the two in the Phantom Prison faced each other, but they did not move immediately.

“Alright, the real battle starts now.”
