Chapter 1246 Consequences of his genius


    ording to Lex''s understanding of how ts worked, the more he used it to influence aw, the more it would be drained. The greater his own understanding of that particrw, the less the strain would be, whereas conversely the less he understood a certainw, the more strain he would have to endure.


    Lex also believed that there had to be some way to strengthen his t, though he did not yet understand what it was. The stronger his t was, the longer he could influencews, and to a greater extent.


    Based solely on those things, Lex assumed that the ck pir was actually some obscurew that Lex had never encountered before, or did not understand. The other immortals were, somehow, strengthening or boosting it to the point where there was no otherw around him, and no escape for him.


    Even if he tried to fly in a straight line towards the nearest immortal, and outside the territory of the ck pir, he would never make it out. Lex would feel like he was flying at his fastest, and traversing thousands of miles, yet barely cover a few feet.


    Another lightning bolt struck him, and since he was not able to react at all due to the unusual suppression from the ck pir, he was thrown to the ground, both his shoulderspletely charred.


    Lex grimaced. It was time to resolve the issue, or use his hidden techniques, though he wondered how effective they would be. If allws were being suppressed, then the ones that were needed for his other techniques should be as well.


    He had to admit, this was a difficult situation to break out of, but the challenge only motivated him. Since Lex had decided to walk the path of supremacy, how could it ever be easy? He had chosen to walk the path filled with adversity, and this was his first major obstacle.


    Lex narrowed his eyes and focused. He did not try to control the ck pir - not only did he not know what that was, he was certain the strain of trying to control it would immediately exhaust his t. Instead, he tried to apply the same principle the ck pir was using.


    It had been strengthened to the point where it pushed aside every otherw. So if Lex managed to reach out to and strengthen some otherw, it should be able to push aside the ck pir.


    Lex''s soul, spirit and body were much stronger than his peers since he had trained them to be. His t, as of yet, received no such training, but its special nature made it especially suited for a fight.


    Completely unaware that the amount of energy he used to create his t was vastly more than an ordinary immortal, Lex used his t to reach out to the onew he was intimately familiar with - defense.


    Even more than space itself, Lex was familiar with thews of defense for the very start of his cultivation journey and much of his progress, he had been mired in them.


    He reached out, using his t to sense thew, but his t did not have any range. It could not extend beyond his body and reach out to anyws that were not physically touching him. Maybe in the future he might learn how to, but for the moment he was restricted.


    So instead of manipting thosews, Lex reached out to them. He reached out to thew of defense, and summoned it to him. Although Lex was no longer a user of Regal Embrace, its mark was left in every pore of his body.


    His affinity for anyw associated with defense was vastly greater than any other, and though Lex barely ever used them, it did not mean he was not aware of them.


    Lex lifted his sword, and recalled another technique he had learned, but had not used in a long time.


    When he had learned Inferno de, he had also learned a defensive sword technique called Stalwart Guardian because of how easy it was for him. But Lex rarely ever needed to use it.


    Now he used those techniques, fueling them with his sword intent, even though he was not being attacked technically.


    There was a vacuum ofws around him, yet he summoned them to him. His t fought against the pressure it was under, and reached out despite it. Neither suppression nor oppression affected the use of his t, for the path of supremacy was destined to be one filled with trials and obstacles. The summons of his t were augmented by his sword techniques, which sent shivers down the ck pir.


    Naraka hummed. It did not know how, it did not know why, but it felt that something was preventing it from using its full strength, and so the sword hummed. It lent Lex its strength, which he used to practice out Stalwart Guardian, under the intense gaze of ten hostile immortals. In the face of absolute suppression and superiority, Lex fought back, and summoned thews of the universe to himself.


    While the ck pir tried to suppress him, he tried to rece it. His actions, his intentions, and the consequences of both of them formed a literal and metaphorical battle for supremacy for thews around himself against the ck pir.


    Lex, by pure happenstance, embodied the very nature and soul of his t, something most immortals did not achieve for a very long time, causing the strength of his t to explode temporarily.


    The pir trembled, and the immortals summoning it suddenly paled. Then it broke, and thews of the universe quivered to rush back in. But they were pushed aside.


    The area around Lex was the Domain of absolute defense, and hundreds ofws associated with it came rushing in, trembling with excitement. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    In that moment, Lex understood how to better use his t, and he understood what an Immortals Domain was. But instead of feeling happy, he groaned, and looked upwards.


    His fourth tribtion had not finished… yet his fifth tribtion had been provoked.
