WHOOSH!

Zhao Xuanqi stood his ground, his body completely enveloped by the rapidly spreading Fog, which blotted out the sky.

The Fog was released through the pores, appearing to be a physical substance formed from vaporized bodily fluids. In reality, however, that wasn't the case. Once it left the body, the mist combined with the Heaven and Earth Qi, transforming into something that straddled the line between the physical and ethereal.

Force could not disperse it, and physical attacks couldn't even touch it. Only magnetic fields and auras were able to have any effect.

ROAR!

A Qilin's roar thundered as Zhao Xuanqi unleashed his Spiritual Secret Technique. The Holy Beast Form spread out, but its range was drastically compressed, only able to illuminate his surroundings within a ten-meter radius.

All his senses were suppressed, making it nearly impossible to discern anything beyond ten meters.

Furthermore, the Fog possessed a peculiar property: any aura or magnetic field that came into contact with it would be rapidly eroded and broken down. To resist it, one had to constantly stimulate their Qi and Blood and Spirit, maintaining a high level of physical exertion and willpower over a long period.

Jiang Feiyu's Holy Seed ability came from a powerful Exotic Beast of the Ancient Times: the Nether Butterfly. Wherever these creatures went, they naturally spread a miasma-like Fog. This Fog was their primary hunting tool, similar to how a spider spins a web. Weaker prey that entered the Fog would quickly be disintegrated by the power within it, becoming sustenance for the Nether Butterfly. Stronger prey would be significantly weakened. The Nether Butterfly, however, remained completely unaffected and could even enhance its physical condition and senses while inside the Fog.

Zhao Xuanqi stood perfectly still. His Hundred Beasts' Intent, honed to its absolute peak, thundered in his mind, signaling immense danger.

Once a Holy Seed ability was activated, the threat level of a top-tier master leaped to another level entirely.

And this was the manifestation of only one person's ability.

In the next moment, a low hum filled the air. VMMMM! All at once, Zhao Xuanqi felt the world around him dim, as if all the light had been siphoned away in an instant.

'No! It's not just the world around me.'

The fiercely glowing silver Qilin Form dimmed in that same instant. And while the rainbow light of the magnetic field surrounding him didn't darken as completely as his surroundings, its brilliance was diminished by at least a third!

'It can even affect my own magnetic rainbow light?'

Diminished rainbow light meant the power of his magnetic field and aura had been drastically reduced!

SWISH!

Just then, Mitsuro, who had been lying in wait, finally made his move.

From the gloom, a blade of light shot out, so dazzling it tore through the darkness. It was condensed, almost solid, as it slashed toward Zhao Xuanqi. Anything in its path underwent Rainbow Transformation, dissolving into motes of light!

Rainbow Cut!

With his Holy Seed activated, Mitsuro's attack power was boosted by at least thirty percent. Moreover, he could use his ability to affect the light of Zhao Xuanqi's magnetic field, drastically weakening his defenses. With his own power growing as Zhao Xuanqi's waned, the threat of this single strike was amplified by at least fifty percent!

Mitsuro's Holy Seed came from a terrifying Exotic Beast of the Ancient Times: the Light-devouring Python. This beast was said to be able to control light within a certain range, surviving by devouring it. Its favorite light source was the Life Rainbow Light naturally generated by living creatures. Legend had it that wherever it passed, the Life Rainbow Light of all living things would be stripped away and consumed. The victims would then die suddenly as their bodily magnetic fields fell into disarray. It was an incredibly terrifying Fierce Beast!

Now, with his Holy Seed active, while Mitsuro couldn't yet wield the full power of the Light-devouring Python, he could still control light and significantly weaken his target's Life Rainbow Light.

ROAR!

Zhao Xuanqi's arm blurred as he formed a claw with his hand. Just as he had before, he condensed his magnetic field into a silvery-white Qilin head in his palm and swiped at the incoming Light Blade.

SCREEECH!

This time, however, the Qilin head, weakened by his opponent's ability, failed to shatter the Light Blade as it had before. Instead, the blade sliced a gash into it. Although this drained a significant amount of the Light Blade's power, it wasn't enough to neutralize it completely, and the blade struck his palm.

In an instant, a small patch of flesh on his palm dissolved into motes of light, undergoing Rainbow Transformation.

The Light Blade dissipated, leaving a gash on his palm. His skin, which could withstand the blast of a tank's main cannon, now bled bright red blood.

But it wasn't over. SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! The next moment, countless Light Blades erupted from the Fog, slashing at Zhao Xuanqi from all directions. It was as if a dozen Mitsuros were attacking him simultaneously from different angles.

This wasn't an illusion born of skill; it was genuine physical movement!

Inside the Fog, Mitsuro was moving at incredible speed, circling Zhao Xuanqi so fast it was as if he himself had become light.

In the Immortal Rainbow state granted by his Holy Seed, his body entered a state of near-total Rainbow Transformation. His weight and air resistance plummeted, granting him a massive boost in speed.

However, he carefully maintained his distance from Zhao Xuanqi, relying solely on ranged attacks. He never closed in for melee combat because, in this state of near-total Rainbow Transformation, his physical defense was incredibly low. A single solid hit from his opponent might be more than he could withstand.

There were always trade-offs. In a one-on-one fight, this would have been a glaring weakness. But in a group assault like this, he had no need to face Zhao Xuanqi head-on, rendering the weakness practically nonexistent.

Meanwhile, coordinating with Mitsuro's barrage of attacks, was Oono Bonan's terrifying Primordial Spirit body, now towering nearly twenty meters tall.
