Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 591

Chapter 591 The Flaw

Nine Golden Rings appeared behind Shi Ruolan, forming the shape of a circle; they floated behind her like they were wings. And as soon as they appeared, her aura increased, and the blood energy in her body suddenly increased, creating an area of intense yang energy that could be felt dozens of meters away.

Shu Ruoland had activated a unique technique called the Sovereign Tyrant Body that people with Emperor Bone could only cultivate.

She cultivated this technique by condensing blood energy in the shape of the rings behind her. There were 12 rings, and each subsequent one required more time, energy, and resources to condense.

The Sovereign Tyrant Body was a unique technique that allowed its user to open the Gate of Power after condensing the 11th ring and the Gate of Flesh after condensing the last one.

However, this technique had a significant flaw as it was an active body refining technique. When Shi Ruolan did not activate the rings, her body was relatively weaker; it was still powerful but not nearly as powerful as when she activated them.

As such, she can get assassinated a lot easier before she activates the rings. Luckily, Shi Ruolan used some other techniques to somewhat compensate for the deficiency, which will also disappear after opening the Gate of Power.

Shi Ruolan rushed toward Chu Luo to punch him.

Bang!

She flew back a few dozen meters. She lost in a direct confrontation, and she immediately knew the reason. Her ability forced her opponent to have the same stats as her. However, Chu Luo was better at controlling his strength.

As such, with the exact stats, he could exert more power than her.

Nevertheless, she did not stop attacking after one confrontation. No, she kept rushing at him with the objective of a fist-to-fist brawl. With each attack, she lost, and Chu Luo would go on the offensive to punch her in the stomach, ribs, face, and everywhere else; it was a one-sided beating.

Shi Ruolan planned to evolve amid battle and reach the same level of control as her opponent; she did the same tactic during her battle with Xiao Tiandi. Regrettably, she soon realized the two were in entirely different realms regarding force control.

If she wanted to reach his level, she would need years–and even then, she might fail.

"Let's change tactic.' Shi Ruolan decided to stop the fleshly body confrontation and used her other powers. She had lost in this confrontation. Nevertheless, excitement emanated from her eyes as she knew she had met a worthy opponent.

A golden aura covered her body as the natural pressure she released suddenly increased. All the participants could tell she had gotten stronger, and people like Wang Wei, Chu Luo, Zhang Yucheng, Monk Wuzhi, and Xiao Tiandi could tell her strength had increased from the middle of 4-Leaf to the peak.

"Heart of Invincibility," commented Chu Luo.

"Exactly."

Chu Luo knew of this state of mind that could boost battle since he cultivated one in his first life. Cultivators can cultivate an Invincible Heart through constant fighting and defeating all opponents, increasing their power in battles.

Invincible Heart has levels. For example, all the people Chu Luo defeated were no match for him in the first place, so his Invincible Heart had little effect on the boost it granted. Meanwhile, Shi Ruolan had to defeat many of her peers–people as talented, if not more than her.

As such, her Invincible Heart gave her a significant boost.

"It's a shame you're going to lose your invincible heart after this battle," Chu Luo commented with a sneer. After his first failure to pass the Outlaw Trial, he lost his Invincible Heart. And as long as Shi Ruolan lost this fight, the same will happen to her.

"We will see," replied Shi Ruolan with a big grim. Then, golden flames appeared on her body before she punched.

[Sovereign Flame]

The golden flame engulfed half of the sky. However, Chu Luo remained calm. He waved his hand to manifest a cauldron. The cauldron's top then opened to release an ocean of black water that canceled out the flame.

Shi Ruolan raised her hands to manifest two golden bolts of lightning

Swish!

She threw them so hard that they traveled a few million faster than light. The bolts were powerful and contained a suppressive power even more mighty than a gravity trillion times of a planet similar to Earth.

Chu Luo's face changed as he wanted to react and move out of the way; it was too late. A sword with dragon designs on the hill manifested in Shi Ruolan's hand, and she slashed him. _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}
