Light Fortress

Chapter 1746 - 396: Near-God Person

He wants to pursue the ultimate.

The so-called ultimate is the origin!

As far as he knows, the reason why the Northern Continent Three Generals are so extraordinary, far surpassing other Titled ranks, is because they have touched the origin that mortals cannot touch!

"Contacting the origin, it’s too difficult."

Bai Xiu confessed: "I’ve been in seclusion here with you for nearly a month, and haven’t felt even a hint of the origin."

"Just a month and you want to see the origin?"

Silver Fox smiled and shook his head: "Without opportunity, sitting for a year with no reward wouldn’t be surprising."

On the path of Extraordinary Cultivation, high talent indeed allows one to do as they please.

The North Continent also has an S-class.

Judge Mu Wanqiu’s cultivation journey was also like a cheat, cutting through obstacles, directly rising to Titled.

But after becoming Titled, the path is no longer "cultivation".

The leap in the level of life.

Has little to do with talent or effort.

"The reason why I, Rustbone, and White Lizard could touch the ’origin’... is because of the Red Emperor War back then."

Silver Fox carried his hands behind his back, with a complex expression, his voice hoarse: "Mortals touching the origin come at a great cost."

"What cost?" Bai Xiu held his breath.

Silver Fox was silent for a moment.

He extended a hand, that was full of dark colors.

Countless black mottled dark auras twisted around the fingers and arms, he casually reached for Bai Xiu.

At the same time a voice resounded in Bai Xiu’s Heart Lake.

"Don’t let me catch you."

Whoosh!

Bai Xiu reacted extremely quickly, even without Silver Fox’s verbal warning, at the moment the dark hand reached, he had already reacted, a thunderous sound echoed from the giant wall, the Thunder Realm Walker instantly descended, attached to him, the elemental and condensed Thunder Realm Domain expanded.

Bai Xiu’s robe was instantly dyed a pale white by the Thunder Light.

His entire speed was elevated to the extreme.

In just a moment, Bai Xiu had circled behind Silver Fox, his speed so fast that even after-images hadn’t disappeared, and due to the combat instincts honed over years of cultivation, after circling, he subconsciously raised his fist.

A punch from the Thunder Realm Walker was enough to pierce a hole through the giant wall.

"Boom——"

The massive sound attracted the attention of many night patrollers in Chanyi City.

But they only glanced, and then withdrew their gaze...

Because the General is on the giant wall.

So, all phenomena, are nothing to be shocked by.

...

...

"Do you... now understand what ’origin’ means?"

Silver Fox’s calm inquiry reverberated in Bai Xiu’s Heart Lake.

Countless thunder roared.

Under the Thunder Realm Walker’s enhancement, Bai Xiu remained stunned in his fist-raised posture, only the Silver Fox before him had disappeared.

The voice came from behind.

His collar, bleached by Thunder Light, was now gripped by a dark large hand.

Silver Fox had not moved a step from start to finish.

He didn’t dodge.

So... he was "caught" here himself.

In Bai Xiu’s eyes, a rare expression of bewilderment appeared.

He couldn’t understand this phenomenon.

It was somewhat like...

Causality?

That hand of Silver Fox seemed to contain the legendary origin power, as long as it wanted to grasp him, no matter how he escaped, he would definitely be caught.

"I can’t explain to you exactly what the origin is, you can understand it as the essence of truth, the source of transcendence."

"But I can clearly tell you that just touching the origin, even the tiniest strand, is enough to change the level of life."

"This means that battles with other Transcendents are essentially ’dimensional reduction attacks’."

Silver Fox said coolly: "That’s why, the Divine Throne overlooks all beings, because the origin power they hold is tens or hundreds of times mine."

He released his hand.

Plop!

Bai Xiu fell forward, lightly touching the ground with both hands, deftly flipping and jumping up.

"I... want to try again."

Bai Xiu took a deep breath, recovering from the shock just now, he looked seriously at Silver Fox General.

Silver Fox laughed.

"Alright, this time... it’s the same, don’t let me catch you."

Just as he prepared to make a move.

Bai Xiu asked: "Can I strike with all my might?"

After being caught last time, Bai Xiu didn’t dismiss the Thunder Realm Walker, meaning now he needn’t take time to expand the domain, even if it’s just a brief moment, skipping it might result in a "miracle".

"Go all out."

Silver Fox’s expression remained extremely calm.

He extended his hand towards Bai Xiu once more, Bai Xiu was on high alert, while Silver Fox was relaxed to an extreme degree.

His move was very slow.

But the dark aura on his arm rolled, Bai Xiu felt a strong force enveloping him!

Origin Power descended!

This time, he didn’t dodge, but suddenly drew two Thunder Blades from the Thunder Realm Domain, stabbing towards Silver Fox!

Going all out!

Silver Fox narrowed his eyes, the relaxed smile in his eyes vanished.

This is a very clever approach.

Bai Xiu had recognized that origin power is a kind of supreme rule evolution, as long as he made a move, it would inevitably grasp him.

So rather than fleeing, avoiding, it’s better to confront face to face...

Draw the blade, counterattack!

"Boom Boom!"

On Chanyi City’s giant wall, two extremely dazzling brilliant flashes of thunder erupted, Bai Xiu wielded the dual blades, cutting all the way, while Silver Fox carried one hand behind him, using the other to block and resist, the two of them moved forward and backward, in the short span of seconds they carved out hundreds of meters of thunder trails on the giant wall, the intense sounds this time attracted many Fortress Guardians’ attention.

Because this scene is indeed beautiful.

Countless thunder fragments flew out like butterflies.

The magnificent and powerful source power danced on the city wall, many Transcendents paused, knowing this battle’s outcome wouldn’t change, but still they marveled at the young man named Bai Xiu, for the power he displayed.

Such powerful source and spirit.

Probably except for the General, in this world, there truly aren’t many who can withstand such a violent and ferocious onslaught.

At this moment, the resplendent and breathtaking level of thunder light on the giant wall could almost compare to the Red Lake battle between Gu Shen and Jia Wei.

But...

It lasted less than ten seconds.

Silver Fox halted the trend of stepping back, not because he was exhausted, or for any other reason... but because he deliberately defended, allowing Bai Xiu to attack, but by cutting to this point, Bai Xiu’s Thunder Realm Walker’s momentum had been completely expended.

The battle’s process truly depends on a burst of energy.

To wane, to fade away.

Since Bai Xiu went all out, he naturally wouldn’t intentionally hold back.

Silver Fox seized a moment’s opportunity, against the thunder light extending his hand into the Thunder Realm, instantly countless condensed thunders bombarded this black hand.

But...

All in vain.

This arm containing origin aura ignored the Thunder Realm’s attack.

The fingers contracted.

A subtle yet ingenious shock force spread out, directly rushing out of the giant wall, shattering the thundering skies.

The two meticulously crafted Thunder Blades in Bai Xiu’s hand also shattered into pieces.

Origin Power activated.

Bai Xiu uncontrollably lunged forward, his chest suddenly crashing into Silver Fox’s palm.

The wild wind shrieked, paused at this moment.

"Boom——"

Yet the intense rumblings resonated by Bai Xiu’s ears, in his Heart Lake!

Silver Fox no longer maintained the one-handed posture, the withdrawn hand from his back was now taken out.

Little Xiuzi looked pale.

He looked up and stared at the world before him.

The entire view was pitch black, leaving only a single dark fist.

And finally.

That fist hovered just inches before Bai Xiu, shedding the dark origin color.

"Pa, pa..."

The black hand gripping Bai Xiu also reverted to the color of a normal arm, he dusted off the collar of the dazed young man, softly saying: "Little Xiuzi, I know you are strong."

"But only Transcendents who have contacted the ’origin’ are qualified to be called ’Near-God Persons’. "
