Cultivation Through Artifacts

Chapter 147: Domain Clash!

The red dot on the map moved extremely fast, making Khal realize he only had a few minutes before his enemy arrived.

Pondering what he should do as he didn’t want to wait without doing anything, Khal glanced around, looking for a place, an item, or an object that could help him.

However, no matter where he looked he seemed to find nothing that could help him. In a place where everything was burning and filled with dark ash, he could do zero things!

Especially because he was wearing a white robe that could notice anyone from miles away!

“Wait… Black ashes and my robe… That’s it!” thought Khal as a great idea appeared inside his mind and began to move.

–

Among the burning flames and ash, a girl in a beautiful white robe was running, her hand clenching a white marble sword tightly.

She was none other but Seila, whose plan was to kill the on her section as the rest were quite far away from her.

Her feet moved extremely fast, faster than Khal’s Secret Art’s First Form.

Running through burning villages one after another, Seila reached the other end of the section in a bit more than 10 minutes and looked around.

“Where…” glancing at the map, Seila watched as she was exactly on the other red dot, yet she could see nobody.

“Screech!” suddenly from above her head, a loud cry sounded in the air, causing Seila to raise her head and stare at a crimson red bird in the sky.

However, when she recognized the Beast her eyes flickered with a hint of anger and her fingers subconsciously tightened around her sword, “That’s his!”

Immediately after she said that, her eyes caught the sight of the way too familiar-looking white robe not far away from her behind a tree.

“There he is!” exclaimed Seila and without any further hesitation raised and swung her sword.

“Die!”

Swish!

A silver crescent arc arose the moment her voice fell, cutting the tree together with the white robe behind it in half in a split second!

“Hmph… Trying to ambush me with such a weak try…” exclaimed her thoughts Seila with a cold sneer and walked next to where she sliced Khal’s body up.

“Next time at least try a bit bet-, eh?” abruptly halting her speech once she arrived next to Khal, suddenly Seila’s brows knitted together as confusion plastered over her pretty face.

Khal’s sliced body that should have been right before here could be nowhere to be seen whilst only a white robe was visibly on the ground!

“Yeah, I did.” suddenly a voice sounded from her side, but even before she could have reacted a sharp pain pierced into her right hand.

Swish!

Watching as her word with half of her hand still holding the sword flew up high into the air, Seila’s face paled and grabbed her shoulder, trying to stop the bleeding.

“You!” watching as Khal emerged from the ash on the ground, covered in a crystal-like skin akin to obsidian but with a way more translucent shade, Seila remained silent, her eyes holding anger and shock at the same time!

She was not only shocked because he was able to ambush her, but because he stood before her completely naked!

Even though his body was akin to a sculpture made out of black crystal, he was still naked before not only her but millions of Cultivators!

This was simply outrageous!

“This guy…” several spectators twitched upon seeing Khal’s bold appearance, some even holding back the urge to curse.

“Haha! This guy is simply shameless beyond belief!” laughed Nate wildly while Liza on his side slapped herself on the face, feeling ashamed instead of Khal.

Though, Khal didn’t feel anything about his outer appearance at all and instead grabbed Seila’s weapon that was dropped into his hand from the air by Rubie.

“Quite a great weapon,” exclaimed Khal as he examined the weapon, his complexion holding not even the bit of embarrassment.

‘…’ remaining silent to calm herself down. After taking a deep breath she glanced at her side and waved her hand.

In a split second, the bleeding stopped, helping her avoiding dying from blood looks, but her complexion was still pale.

Losing an arm and a bit amount of blood could make many Cultivators scream with agony and fall unconscious, sending them right into their inevitable demise, but unfortunately, Seila was not like that.

With a simple wave of her arm, she sealed her wound, stopping the bleeding right away.

“What kind of Secret Art was that?” wondered Khal, but couldn’t ponder any further as suddenly Seila’s figure appeared in front of him.

Swish!

“Woah!” exclaimed Khal with shock as he was stunned to see Seila move with such speed even after losing her arm!

Avoiding her palm that was covered with Essence, Khal moved with the help of his Second Form and once behind her, swung the sword at her neck!

“I already know this trick!” said Seila and just like how Khal performed a second ago, she stepped to the side and appeared behind him under a split moment!

‘…’ Khal seemed to be a bit surprised by this, but not to the degree where he would get caught out of his guard.

Just before Seila’s hand could have touched his back, his eyes Heaven’s Eyes appeared, and with its help seeing behind him as though he stared forward, he swayed the sword in his hand backward!

Though, it seemed this was exactly what Seila wanted. Merely before the sword could have cut her other hand off, her wrist twisted unnaturally and grabbed the blade firmly with her bare fingers!

She stopped the sword with nothing but with her fingers alone!

Feeling as his strike was halted, Khal was about to summon his fan and attack her but was a breath too late.

Suddenly the sword’s hilt in his hand lit up, and like some kind of oven, it began to burn hotter and hotter, making his Diamond Skin melt with each passing second!

“Interesting…” said Khal and without further ado let the sword go.

“Hmph!” with a cold snort, Seila grabbed her sword by the hilt and said, “Now you should prepare to die!”

Right as her voice fell, the space around Khal twisted and in a flash, everything changed.

The scenery around him turned black while silver chains moving, twisting, and shaking here and there could be seen in the distance!

“So this is her Second Talent. Restriction type, huh?” thought Khal as he felt his power immediately getting limited once inside this strange domain.

“Sigh… It seems this is where all ends.” sighed Scarlett, making all the teachers around her turn gloomy right away.

All of them belived that maybe Khal will be able to win after his unexpectedly great ambush, but after this, the result was way too obvious.

He couldn’t win no matter what!

“He should have gone for the head instead of her weapon!” said Conner, anger could be discerned inside his voice as he couldn’t believe Khal missed an evident golden chance right at the very beginning of this fight.

“There is no need to act calm, both of us know this is the end,” said Seila with an indifferent face as he noticed Khal’s unusually calm gaze, mistaking it as his arrogance.

Upon hearing this, Khal’s mouth however curved into a smile, and nodded, “Yes, it is indeed the end. But not for me.”

Right as he said that, he extended his hand forward and said, “Stellar Domain, Open!”

BAM!
