Night of Despair-Chapter 473: Fate 471 I
"What do you think of the sanctuary’s power in this world?" Yu Hong looked at the scene on the light screen and asked softly.
"It looks quite formidable, but it seems to lean towards physical damage. Ku Chan, being more on the mental side, might suffer." Chi Xiao said.
"That’s possible, but Ku Chan has already integrated various kinds of magic to perfection, so he still has ways to cope." Yu Hong nodded.
"This sanctuary seems to focus more on cultivating the power within oneself. Such individuals are powerful but not many in number, and not very enduring, so as long as you withstand the initial intensity, there wouldn’t be much issue later on." Chi Xiao evaluated.
"It’s starting." Yu Hong’s eyes flickered as he quietly watched the scene.
He was somewhat concerned about the sanctuary’s type system. This system might provide some value to his current path.
If he could get the cultivation system of the warriors...

In mid-air.
Two spheres of transparent pressure, rubbing against each other, pressing, contending.
For a moment, neither could overcome the other.
"Another sanctuary? Or a human?" The anger on the Golden Eye man’s face gradually calmed down.
"But regardless of your purpose, why help the White Dragon. Today, you must die!!"
He shook the silver cross sword in his hand, and the white wings on his back flashed and vanished.
The next second, he appeared beside Ku Chan almost like an instantaneous movement, slashing horizontally with one sword.
The slash brought out a white sword energy over ten meters long, almost completely covering all angles and positions Ku Chan could dodge.
"Left." Ku Chan remained motionless, saying lightly.
Swoosh!
The sword energy grazed just past his left side, almost touching him at the edge of its path.
From a distance, it seemed like the sanctuary’s strike missed.
But the Golden Eye man had already flashed so close to Ku Chan to strike; how could it miss at such a close distance!?
"Wrong!?" The Golden Eye man’s eyes flickered, quickly retreating, then lunged forward again.
Slash, slash, slash, slash! In an instant, he slashed hundreds of sword lights, covering a circular area of tens of meters in front of him.
This time the coverage was larger, forming a massive white disc with a fifty-meter diameter in mid-air.
"Right side." Ku Chan’s voice came again.
Once again, he was just right at the right edge of this massive white disc.
Not more, not less, but just outside the attack range.
"Again!!" The Golden Eye man’s face turned red.
Swoosh!!
Two pairs of four wings of white light suddenly opened behind him, his speed escalating to a new peak.
Boom!
At this moment, even a sonic boom occurred as he moved. This meant his speed was much higher than before, approaching two hundred meters per second.
At this speed, even Ku Chan and Yu Hong couldn’t ignore it.
"Not bad skill, but unfortunately...if your mental resistance were stronger, you might really have a glimmer of hope against me." Ku Chan slightly praised.
He slowly raised his flaming sword.
"But now..."
Buzz!!
White lines constantly flashed past him at high speed. Those were white marks swiftly slashed by the sanctuary.
Yet no matter how the opponent attacked, they couldn’t truly hit him.
"Spiritual Ability Nine Slashes."
Ku Chan grasped the sword hilt tightly, with the first rune near the hilt on the sword blade lighting up with a dazzling red light.
"First Red Phoenix."
Clang!!
In an instant, a sword light flashed.
As if a red laser flashed between heaven and earth in an instant.
Ku Chan’s figure disappeared, reappearing dozens of meters behind the sanctuary in mid-air, slowly sheathing his sword.
"This is the ultimate skill I summarized and condensed based on what I learned, a total of nine moves."
Behind him, the sanctuary man couldn’t believe it as he looked down at a bleeding wound on his chest.
"It was actually in just an instant....."
In that moment, his mind went blank for a second. By the time he reacted, everything was too late.
His chest was already hit, and a hole pierced through the combat energy defense, creating a hole in his heart.
"This isn’t speed..." The sanctuary man suddenly realized. "It’s an illusion! You made me produce an illusion!? A cognitive bias!!"
"....." Ku Chan frowned slightly, looking at the opponent whose heart was pierced, yet was still not dead?
"Unfortunately....if I weren’t a sanctuary myself, maybe just now would’ve been enough to decide the outcome." The Golden Eye man turned around, and the wound on his chest surprisingly had healed and disappeared.
"Again!! Life Holy Seal!!"
The man roared, with white light shining behind him, revealing four pairs of eight-winged white light wings.
This time his speed and strength were even more terrifying, his body transforming into a white line, cutting through Ku Chan.
Bang!!
Without any tricks, the two faced each other, colliding head-on with full force.
Blinding white light and red light clashed, the red light like a mirror, lifting the incoming white light to the sky.
With another flash, the red light transformed into a laser, another Red Phoenix, hitting the sanctuary man’s chest directly.
This time, completely creating a big gap through his chest.
Blood splattered.
The sanctuary man’s eyes widened, losing control of his body, falling helplessly backward.
Above him, Ku Chan slowly dissipated the flame long sword in his hand.
"I told you before, the gap between you and me isn’t something simple acceleration and force can make up for."
"Too restrictive." In the distance, within the Black Black Spirit, Yu Hong sighed.
"Ku Chan’s spiritual power is too overwhelming, exerting absolute mental suppression on the opponent."
"Indeed." Chi Xiao also nodded. "During the previous pressure clash, it was evident that Ku Chan’s influence on material through spirit caused a pressure almost equivalent to the other’s direct pressure on material. That’s a huge gap in itself. You know, for the spirit to influence material, the difficulty is extremely high."
"After absolute spiritual suppression appears, any thought can mislead the opponent and affect sensory precision. This way, no matter how fast or how strong he gets, without accurate direction, he can’t possibly win." Yu Hong nodded in agreement.
"However, the development of the sanctuary on their physical body is still worth learning from, such speed just now, even for me it would be challenging." Yu Hong’s tone changed, continuing.
This battle reminded him of the beginning.
When he first reached the Daoist World, if he recklessly sought trouble with top Heavenly Masters, the situation that might have occurred would be similar to this sanctuary now.
The absolute gap in spirit resulted in a predicament where he couldn’t hit anyone no matter how he tried to explode with power.

"It seems everything is over." Chi Xiao pouted, "Too fast, this so-called sanctuary isn’t even as good as that Ninth Level White Dragon, at least the Ninth Level White Dragon has a high enough spiritual value, preventing such absolute overpowering."
"Not so fast, not necessarily." Yu Hong, with strong eyesight now, noticed something different.
At that moment, in the scene.
Ku Chan watched the opponent fall straight down and was about to turn around to look at the direction of the two White Dragons.
Suddenly.
Boom!!
A dazzling silver-white pillar of light shot up from where the sanctuary man was.
The golden-eyed sanctuary man just a moment ago, now his entire body combat energy turned silver-white, with a faint holy radiance reappearing, soaring into the sky once again.
The large gap on his chest remained.
That was a big wound Ku Chan opened to prevent him from healing again.
Inside, broken pieces of a heart could be seen.
But even with his heart destroyed, the sanctuary man astonishingly still floated steadily in mid-air, watching Ku Chan from here.
"Otherworld heresy....ought to be purified!"
A completely different deep, neutral voice echoed from the man’s mouth.
Before Ku Chan could react, the next moment, an overwhelmingly more terrifying and exaggerated spiritual pressure descended from the sky, crushing onto him.
Buzz!!
The surrounding air twisted and trembled.
From thin gas, it suddenly turned into thick, oil-like gelatinous substance.
Hard to move, hard to resist!
The way Ku Chan just suppressed the sanctuary man, now he was being perfectly suppressed back the same way.
"Divine???!!" He instantly understood; the opponent couldn’t afford to lose, calling upon the Divine Intent behind him.
Damn!
This place is full of sore losers!
They keep calling upon the Divine’s will!
The Spirit Light Secret Skill on Ku Chan’s body surface kept being squeezed to cause layers of ripples. This indicated it was under heavy strain.
Since Yu Hong elevated the Spirit Light to a high level, the amplification strength of this secret technique had long exceeded Ku Chan’s imagination.
Even he sometimes couldn’t test the limits of the Spirit Light’s defense.
And now, he finally saw the limit.
But not in the manner he wanted.
Crack.
He attempted to move his arm, but the immense crushing mental pressure rendered him unable to move even a finger.
"Die." The deity-endowed sanctuary man raised the sword, swiftly approaching Ku Chan, both hands high, and struck down.
Slash!!
At this moment, a large pale blue sun suddenly appeared behind Ku Chan.
As the sword blade fell, it seemed to strike an invisible transparent barrier.
"This ends here. Everyone, that’s enough."
In mid-air to their right, somehow, appeared a bizarre humanoid figure.
The figure’s head was a colorful spinning halo, wearing robes similar to Ku Chan’s but even more gorgeous, exquisite in style.
If those who had encountered the Spirit Disaster of the Black Light Army saw it, they would undoubtedly blurt out a name—Cai Jing Taoist!
"Heh heh....heretic! All of you die!!" The sanctuary man was completely possessed by the Divine Intent, ignoring Cai Jing Taoist’s obstruction.
The sword light flashed again.
With a crisp crash.
The transparent barrier in front shattered instantly, the sword blade slashing straight toward Ku Chan.
But in the next moment, a humanoid figure appeared out of thin air in front of Ku Chan.
It was exactly that Cai Jing Taoist just a hundred meters away!
It lifted its hand and point at the falling sword blade with its fingertip.
Boom!!
In an instant, Cai Jing Taoist’s body couldn’t withstand, exploding directly into countless white light spots.
But after being hindered for a moment, Ku Chan also disappeared from the original spot.
The sanctuary man roared, closed his eyes to sense, then quickly reopened them and turned his head, speeding off into the distance.
With the terrifying speed of three hundred meters per second, it took him almost only three seconds to catch up with the departing Ku Chan and another person.
Now close, the sanctuary noticed, that other person outside Ku Chan was actually the colorful figure he just struck.
"Friend, your other disciple is in my hand, let today’s affair end here, let everyone step back, it’s good for you and me both." At this time Cai Jing Taoist was still holding another sanctuary disciple who disappeared earlier, a sultry golden-haired female disciple.
This person now revealed her true form after losing the combat energy disguise. Seeing her master catching up, the female disciple became excited, struggling and writhing wildly in Cai Jing Taoist’s hand.
