?
Due to being within the Mana Void, John was reduced to a strong ordinary person, completely powerless to resist Absolute Copy.
Thus, a ring quickly appeared in Owen's hand.
Owen immediately probed his consciousness into John's storage ring.
Armament Merge!
He quickly found the special secret technique taught by Ymir.
Seeing this, a broad smile spread across Owen's face.
Such a unique and powerful secret technique was finally his!
Ignoring the retreating John, Owen waved his hand, and the Order of Thunder and Order of
Fire flew out from his forehead like two ancient runes, hovering above his head.
They intertwined, each emitting a silver-white and crimson light curtain.
As the runes rotated, the light curtains gradually merged, forming a barrier exuding a dangerous aura.
The space showed slight scorch marks, as if the barrier had divided it into two worlds.
After ensuring his protection, Owen immediately began studying and comprehending Armament Merge!
Soon, Owen understood the cultivation method of Armament Merge.
It was unique and carried certain risks.
The more powerful the staff, the greater the changes and backlash encountered during fusion. However, once successfully fused, the boost to tier and strength was immense!
Without hesitation, Owen took out the Godslayer Staff from the storage ring, placing it before him.
He then began channeling mana elements into the Godslayer Staff according to the Armament Merge technique, while also infusing his mind power into the staff, attempting to refine and merge it right there.
John, who had retreated earlier, suddenly felt a sense of relief as familiar mana once again gathered around him.
He breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly noticed the barrier occupying half of the arena. Because it was formed by the Order of Thunder and Order of Fire, he could only vaguely see Owen sitting cross-legged inside, seemingly cultivating.
The more John observed Owen's cultivation method, the more familiar it seemed to him. "Isn't this the cultivation method for Armament Merge?" John thought, stunned.
He had spent a long time training in it, so the technique was deeply imprinted in his memory. How did Owen also know it?
His face darkened, and he suddenly launched an attack on the barrier.
Meteor-like magical orbs, summoned by him, descended from the sky with long flaming tails, crashing heavily on top of the barrier.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was as if powerful explosives were detonating, causing the entire barrier to shake slightly.
The rotation speed of the thunder and fire slowed a bit.
Chaotic mana clashed with the space, creating countless sparks and deafening booms, sending waves of force rippling outward.
The arena's surface buckled and shattered into rings of debris, as if plowed.
However, John's magical meteors only slightly disturbed the barrier, not affecting Owen inside at all.
Facing the spreading shockwaves, John grimly watched the seemingly indestructible barrier. He then channeled the abundant magic within him and launched another attack on the barrier. "Break for me!" John roared, his face contorted with rage, veins bulging.
Mana within a radius of tens of meters began to boil violently, transforming into elements of earth, fire, wind, and water, madly bombarding the barrier.
However, the rotating [Order] on the barrier and the descending light curtains remained as an unchanging, eternal presence.
Despite the relentless attacks, the barrier stood firm.
Seeing John's intense emotional upheaval, Ymir grew anxious.
She had noticed that Owen had seemingly used some domain power and even copied the ring
from John's hand, now cultivating Armament Merge inside the barrier.
If Owen successfully completed his cultivation, John's chances of victory would be exceedingly slim.
However, with the contract ring in Owen's possession, Ymir was bound to protect him and could not intervene. As John's repeated attacks began to lose power and he sought help, Ymir could only shake her head and communicate telepathically.
"There are many powerful individuals here with highly sensitive perceptions. I cannot act. Moreover, the barrier formed by the two Orders is not easily broken..."
Hearing this, John's heart sank to the bottom. His greatest trump card was Ymir.
In the past, he had relied on Ymir's help and guidance to escape life-and-death situations.
Now, Owen's strength and techniques were so bizarre that even John's confidence in his victory wavered.
The best chance now was to break the barrier.
He could see that Owen was at the critical moment of cultivating Armament Merge!
As long as he broke the barrier, even if he didn't attack further, Owen might suffer a backlash.
In the midst of John's increasingly desperate attacks, Owen, within the barrier, slowly closed his eyes.
The Godslayer Staff, placed before him, was gradually transforming into a dark golden water sphere under the guidance of his mana and mind power.
The water sphere floated before him, exuding a divine pressure that seemed to crush the surrounding space! Even as the owner of the Godslayer Staff, Owen felt immense pressure, subtly rejecting his spirit.
Owen knew that he had reached the most critical juncture. Steadying his mind, he bore the immense divine pressure and forcibly absorbed the dark golden water sphere into his body. The golden water sphere, imbued with divine pressure, caused a burning pain just by touching Owen's skin.
His skin broke out in goosebumps, and the stinging pain made him instinctively want to stop. But Owen's mind power far surpassed that of an ordinary mage. Enduring the increasing pain, he persevered through the ordeal.
"What is Owen doing?"
"I don't know, it seems like he's preparing to merge with the Godslayer Staff. His aura fluctuates, and if it weren't for the barrier, I would think he had already lost control."
"Now it's getting harder and harder to see through Owen. But if this keeps up, his barrier will
eventually be broken, and Owen will be in danger..."
Many people didn't understand Owen's intentions.
They were whispering among themselves when suddenly, a wave of violent energy surged
from within the barrier, shooting straight into the sky!
The barrier, which had remained unbreakable under John's attacks, was suddenly pierced by
this energy.
The two [Order] runes flew back into Owen's body. Immediately, the energy wave grew even more terrifying, churning the clouds above into a swirling storm and bringing down a
suffocating, terrifying pressure.
What is that...
Without the interference of the barrier, everyone could clearly see what was happening inside.
The liquid form of the Godslayer Staff had completely merged into Owen's body. His skin was now covered in a black glow, as hard as indestructible black gold.
His skin, flesh, and bones were pitch black, emitting an aura of invincibility. Obsidify successfully broke through to level 3, reaching the Obsidian Bone stage!
This advancement greatly enhanced Owen's physical strength. Simultaneously, the system's
voice sounded.
"Congratulations, Host, on obtaining a new passive skill-Supreme of All."
"Supreme of All?"
Owen's eyes widened as he carefully examined it. This passive skill had no levels, and its description was simple-Supreme staff, king of all methods, unrivaled in a lifetime! After reading it, Owen felt that this description was much more abstract than the system's
other introductions.
Even Owen couldn't understand the specific function of this passive skill. Reflecting carefully, he recalled that the original work didn't mention this passive skill either. However, since it was a new passive skill resulting from the breakthrough of Obsidify and the fusion with the Godslayer Staff, it had to be extraordinary.
"How did you acquire this skill?!"
At this moment, John, having calmed his agitated aura, stared intently at Owen.
Judging by Owen's current aura change, he was definitely cultivating Armament Merge!
But this skill was clearly an exclusive secret of Ymir's family!
"How I got it is none of your business," Owen replied, giving John a sideways glance and
shaking his head slightly.
Previously, John was not a match for him even with this skill. Now that Owen had learned it
too, he feared John even less.
Owen's disdain was evident, making the ever-proud John burn with endless rage.
"Although I don't know how you learned this technique, your quick breakthrough means your foundation is as weak as floating duckweed. This time, I won't hold back!"
