All this happened so fast that by the time the remaining two guards reacted, Yun Ming's confrontation with him was already over. The two exclaimed and hurriedly launched an attack, one holding a bow and shooting arrows for cover, and the other sprinting forward to bring back the Black Flame Rhino Spirit Ancestor.
"Captain!" x2
Yun Ming looked at the arrow that was bursting towards his heart and casually swept his Atlas Spear across. The spear's edge directly split the arrow evenly from the tip to the tail, and then it turned into spirit power and dissipated into the air.
The Spirit Elder with the longbow was also shocked to see Yun Ming so easily cut his Spirit Ability arrow in half.
However, as Yun Ming swept his spear across, the smoke and dust in the arena dissipated, and Zhu Zhuyun, who was distracted and paying attention to Yun Ming's side, discovered that Yun Ming had no spirit ring under his feet, and her mind was greatly shaken.
Zhu Zhuyun, who was 'teasing' her younger sister in the distance, also stopped and backed away when she saw this situation. Zhu Zhuqing got a chance to catch her breath. The previous waist injury had too much of an impact. If Zhu Zhuyun had been more serious or dragged it out a little longer, she would not have been able to hold on!
Zhu Zhuyun's knowledge was much broader than that of her guards. One of her Zhu Family's exceptionally talented old granduncles could achieve 'Spirit manifested but spirit ring not showing', which was a manifestation of extremely high control over the Spirit.
Zhu Zhuqing also looked towards Yun Ming, and when she saw that Yun Ming really had no spirit ring under his feet, her big eyes suddenly widened even more.
That's right!
Yun Ming did hide his spirit rings, because he had absorbed too many spirit rings beyond his level, and his spirit ring configuration was yellow, purple, and black, so he specially studied how to hide his spirit rings.
After experiencing the absorption of spirit rings, Yun Ming discovered that there seemed to be only two key elements to absorbing spirit rings: the speed at which the Spirit refined the spirit ring and the strength of one's own body. The so-called spirit ring limit years adaptation is for the vast majority of Spirit Masters, but it is too general and rough.
Yun Ming's spirit ring refining speed was far beyond that of his peers because his own Spirit was strong enough, and the power hidden within the Atlas Spear protected its master.
In terms of body strength, Yun Ming heard his Grandpa say that even the body tempering methods used by the brutes of the Clear Sky Sect were very primitive, which was to compress the body to its limit and then recover. This method has its limitations.
It can bring strength in specific aspects such as body strength and defense, but there will be some shortcomings that cannot be exercised too much, such as the Meridians, which cannot provide too much help for Spirit Masters to absorb spirit rings, otherwise everyone in the Clear Sky Sect would have absorbed spirit rings beyond their level long ago.
But Yun Ming is different, he also has the inner family Body Refining method of 'Sovereign's Descent (Absolute Dominance)'.
Yun Ming discovered that 'Sovereign's Descent (Absolute Dominance)' tempered the body from the inside out, and the slow increase in spirit power was not without its benefits. The longer it took to reach the spirit power Bottleneck, the longer Yun Ming could practice his energy and blood, that is, exercise his body, through 'Sovereign's Descent (Absolute Dominance)'. With both internal and external cultivation, Yun Ming's body strength increased much faster than his spirit power, but it cost a bit of money and medicinal materials.
This is also an important reason why Yun Ming's second and third spirit rings exceeded the limit so much.
"Stop!"
Zhu Zhuyun also reacted quickly when she saw this and hurriedly told her subordinates to stop.
Although Zhu Zhuyun didn't recognize what kind of Spirit this transparent and ethereal spear was when she saw Yun Ming's Atlas Spear. But to be able to have such a high degree of control over his Spirit at such a young age, and to instantly kill her confidant Captain beyond his level, such a super Genius must be from a top Spirit Master power, although she didn't know whether it was Spirit Hall or Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but such a hero must have strong people guarding him, so they can't fight anymore!
However, Zhu Zhuyun thought again, it seemed that her plan could be completed more smoothly.
Then Zhu Zhuyun changed her face like flipping a book, and put on a charming smile again, and said softly to Yun Ming.
"Just now, Zhu Zhuyun's eyes failed to recognize Mount Tai, and she offended you a lot. Please forgive me, Young Master?"
[Note: I know it's cringe but I wanted to use this dialogue but my doubt is does douluo world even has Mount Tai ???]
Yun Ming saw that Zhu Zhuyun's face changed as easily as flipping a book, and he also admired the children of these powerful families who could be flexible! Seeing this, Yun Ming took back the Atlas Spear and said to Zhu Zhuyun indifferently.
"Miss Zhu Family is serious, but I really don't want to forgive you so easily today!"
Zhu Zhuyun was puzzled when she heard Yun Ming's meaningful words. Although this was a little different from what she thought! But they could still talk. Zhu Zhuyun put on a pitiful expression and asked.
"Then I wonder what Young Master wants Zhu Zhuyun to do?"
Yun Ming pointed to Zhu Zhuqing and said something that was very remarkable for his age in a calm tone.
"I want your sister."
The Zhu Family sisters were stunned by Yun Ming's 'tiger and wolf words'. After Zhu Zhuqing reacted, a faint blush rose on her originally pale face due to blood loss, and she spat lightly.
"You lecher!"
Although Zhu Zhuyun was a little stunned at first, after she came back to her senses, she found that if Zhu Zhuqing could really follow this young man, it would be a good choice, at least better than her sister going to find that coward, but she still had to test the young man's determination.
Zhu Zhuyun's face turned cold, and she looked at the Ghost Mask Man with a solemn expression, and asked sternly.
"I wonder if Young Master knows what he is talking about? My sister is the future Third Crown Prince Consort appointed by the Star Luo Emperor. Isn't Young Master's words taking our Star Luo too lightly!"
Yun Ming's tone did not change much when he heard Zhu Zhuyun mention the Star Luo Empire, and he still replied casually.
"Aren't I wearing a mask? Isn't this enough to take Star Luo seriously?"
Zhu Zhuyun and her guards: "..."
Zhu Zhuyun was really a little angry when she heard the young man's arrogant response, and she asked the last question with an angry expression, gnashing her teeth, word by word.
"What if I don't hand over the person?!!!"
Yun Ming saw that the opposite Miss Zhu was about to go berserk, raised the Atlas Spear in his hand, pointed it directly at Zhu Zhuyun, and his tone finally became a little serious.
"Then defeat you and take her away!"
Zhu Zhuqing was a little absent-minded when she heard this Ghost Mask Man so firmly wanting to take her away. Although she felt that this person was not well-intentioned, she just felt a little warm in her heart. What was going on!
Zhu Zhuyun laughed angrily, but whether it was Yun Ming's illusion or not, he always felt that there was anger in Zhu Zhuyun's smile, but there was a hint of joy mixed in with the anger. Then Zhu Zhuyun said coldly.
"Hehe ~"
"Good! Very good!!!"
"Since that's the case, then I'll leave my sister to Young Master's care!"
After finishing speaking to Yun Ming, Zhu Zhuyun turned around and flew towards the direction of the Star Luo Empire, not even caring about the guards under her command.
The remaining two sober guards saw that their own Miss had been 'angered' away, and they also knew that they would definitely not be able to defeat that Ghost Mask Man, so the two of them also carried the Captain on their backs without saying a word and chased after the Miss.
Yun Ming also turned his head to look at the other Zhu Family 'big' Miss, Zhu Zhuqing, when he saw that Zhu Zhuyun and the three of them had really retreated.
Zhu Zhuqing originally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Zhu Zhuyun had really left, but when she saw the Ghost Mask Man looking at her, her heart, which she had just put down, was lifted up again. She was 'out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den'!
Zhu Zhuqing lamented her tragic fate in her heart.
Zhu Zhuqing originally wanted to escape from this place directly, but the wound on her waist had been bleeding heavily from the time she was injured until now. As soon as she exerted force on her legs, she felt a burst of weakness coming over her, and she couldn't stand still, and finally fell straight down.
