Chapter 354 Genesis Rune Battle Part 1 (2/2)

Her brushtip fell the moment the last word left her mouth. One could only watch as giant serpent-like lightning bolts descended, seemingly covering the entire sky as they shot towards Jin Zhang from all directions.

The giant wave behind Jin Zhang transformed into giant hand, and moved to meet the numerous lightning bolts.

Incessant booms immediately engulfed the area.

...

On a mountain peak, Zhou Yuan lifted his head to look at the young girl atop an even taller mountain. Even though she seemed to be a little shy and nervous, there wasn’t a hint of contempt in his eyes, but instead a grave expression.

This was because he could detect the scent of danger from the girl’s body.

Although she called him senior brother, it was only out of courtesy. Zhou Yuan knew that if they were to go by status, he should be the one to address her as senior sister instead.

“The top gold sash disciple of Spirit Rune Peak huh…” Zhou Yuan muttered to himself as his hand slowly tightened around the Heavenly Yuan Brush.

He could feel a slight pressure from opponent’s Spirit. Evidently, Xia Yu had reached the mid Corporeal stage, a level stronger than himself.

However, the most important factor for this battle was one’s Genesis Rune mastery. Otherwise, given Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi cultivation, he would have no reason to fear her.

“Little senior sister Xia Yu, I hope that you won’t hold this against me.”

Zhou Yuan took in a deep breath, before he suddenly moved the Heavenly Yuan Brush in his hand. A Genesis Rune quickly took shape as the surrounding Genesis Qi began to gather.

“Glowing Eagle Rune!”

The Genesis Rune rapidly expanded, Genesis Qi drumming around it as it transformed into a hundred feet tall glowing eagle. That glowing eagle screamed as it soared into the sky. The eagle then tucked in both its wings, becoming a glowing blurry shadow as it dived towards Xia Yu

“Swift Wind Rune!”

As the eaglep plunged through the air, Zhou Yuan sent out another Genesis Rune. The Genesis Rune wrapped around the eagle's wings, causing its already alarming speed to increase.

“Mountain Piercing Blade Rune!”

Another Genesis Rune was sent out. Light began to flow on that eagle’s beak, giving it unmatched sharpness that could pierce a mountain.

At the sight of this, Xia Yu’s eyes brightened slightly as she softly said, “Senior brother Zhou Yuan is quite adept with Genesis Runes. To think that he can actually stack them…”

Extremely precise Spirit control was required to achieve this feat. Otherwise, the Genesis Runes would collide with one another, making it extremely easy for them to destroy each other.

Aowww!

Light streaked across the sky. Even an ordinary sixth layer Alpha-Origin disciple would not dare to underestimate such an attack.

With a gently stomp, the huge mountain beneath Xia Yu’s feet began to shake. Rocks began to grow from the ground, forming multiple walls of substantial thickness.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The eagle screeched as wall after wall was broken through. Rocks flew in all directions, a clear testament to the exceptional ferocity of the attack.

However, the Genesis Qi around the eagle would dim with every wall it pierced. When it broke through the final wall, the eagle promptly scattered into specks of light that gently sprinkled onto Xia Yu’s face.

Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. The previous attack was not a casual move, but one of his most powerful techniques. Even so, it was easily blocked by her.

Xia Yu gently touched her cheek, her bright eyes looking towards Zhou Yuan as she said, “Senior brother Zhou Yuan has good technique. If not for my favorable location, I would have been a little troubled by that attack.”

“If it was any other time, I would not take advantage of you. However, this concerns the pride of all our Spirit Rune Peak disciples. Therefore, I hope that you won’t blame me senior brother!”

A purple Genesis Brush appeared in Xia Yu’s hand as she slowly tightened her grip around it.

The moment her hand closed around the brush, the shy expression in her eyes completely disappeared, replaced by a powerful and confident look.

Her ponytail gently danced in the wind, as the giant mountain below her feet began to rumble.

“Senior brother Zhou Yuan, it’s my turn now…”

...

In front of Spirit Rune Hall, a smile slowly rose from the corners of Ye Ge’s mouth when he saw this.

Junior sister Xia Yu was finally about to get serious.

Zhou Yuan, you are about to find out how difficult it is to deal with this junior sister of ours from Spirit Rune Peak...

I hope you won’t end up losing too badly.
