World of Cultivation - Volume 06 - All Hail Our King

"Domain!"
"He actually reached Domain!"
People seemed to see something that was impossible to believe. If Zuo Mo's double sonic boom had shocked them, then Shen Yu's Domain that he created with a wave of his hand made them suspect that something was wrong with their eyes. Even Chang Yuan Hao and Yu Shuang had surprised expressions.
"It is a pity for Xiao Mo Ge. Shen Yu has cultivated a Domain … … the young people now really are … …" Yu Shuang shook his head emotionally.
They had heard the reputation of the genius of Shen Yu a long time ago. People had to sigh and praise him for entering general level in his teens.
But all the praise was so insignificant in front of the multicolored world in front of them.
Domain!
This was a line that separated the experts from the masses, and a dividing line for whether one could level up further.
He was so young yet he had crossed this benchmark. His future was unlimited and he had a great hope of entering marshal level.
Many people were adjusting their judgment of the Shen Family.
Lan Rong's face was ashen as he watched from outside the battlefield.
Shen Yu had actually obtained Domain! Xiao Mo Ge was in danger!
There was no change of expression on Shen Yu's face which was as cold and indifferent like the peacock crown that was on his forehead.
[Peacock Eyespot Domain'!
———
As the other seemed to come closer, Zuo Mo suddenly felt the surroundings became difficult to move as though he had entered a quagmire.
Shen Yu seemed to grow distant in his vision.
The distance between the two increased. In a blink, Shen Yu was a hundred zhang away.
He did not notice that dashes of circular marks like the eyespots on peacock feathers appeared on the ground. They were like strange eyes, or slowly spinning whirlpools.
The sticky feeling caused Zuo Mo to feel unusually uncomfortable.
He was like a wild beast that had charged into a net and was instinctively thrashing about! At this time, something slid across his head and caused him to give a shocking roar. He was like a wounded beast. His body suddenly jumped up, and when he reached the apex, his body shook and became blurry!
At the same time, a burning streak of fire pierced the ground from the sky.
Zuo Mo's fist punched out, causing a long flickering fist of fire to smash into a peacock eyespot on the ground.
Boom!
The ground shook and the eyes instantly shattered into countless flows of color. But quickly, they flowed back together from all directions like water and reformed back into the eyespots.
Shen Yu looked indifferently at Zuo Mo and was not affected.
This kind of damage was ineffective against his [Peacock Eyespot Domain].
———
When Zuo Mo's fist hit the ground, the sea of fire inside his body suddenly roared. Already savage, Zuo Mo felt very good.
He did not feel the resistance that came from striking with his fist.
He did not hesitate and lifted his fist again. As though he was mad, he punched again and again!
Boom boom boom!
The ground continued to tremble, the eyespots shattering under the punches and then reforming.
Zuo Mo did not seem to realize it. He was immersed in an indescribable feeling of pleasure. With every punch, the fire inside seemed to vent into the ground from his body. Everything in his body seemed to be burning furiously.
In the stands, Yu Shuang could not stop himself. "This guy really is drunk!"
"Sixteen jars of Ghost Wine." Chang Yuan Hao was of few words, but the meaning did not need to be said.
"This guy is a freak as well. He drank sixteen jars of Granny Meng Ghost Wine and can still fight. How come I wasn't this strong when I was young?" Yu Shuang sighed.
"He will give us a surprise." Shen Yue Yi suddenly laughed lightly.
Yu Shuang and Chang Yuan Hao stilled simultaneously. Shi Yue Yi who had always been indifferent seemed to have eyes which were now flashing with another kind of light as he stared at Xiao Mo Ge.
The two exchanged a look and could see the shock in each other's eyes.
City Master never spoke without basis. Did this little guy really have something special?
Both felt some anticipation.
Their gazes moved towards the battlefield landing on Xiao Mo Ge who was punching the ground in rapid succession.
"En?" Chang Yuan Hao seemed to have noticed something.
Hm?" Yu Shuang couldn't help but give a slight sound of surprise.
———
Zuo Mo furiously punched the ground. He seemed to not know exhaustion and he used full power in every punch. The ground of the battlefield continued to tremble and even the guests in the stands could feel it.
He completely forgot about Shen Yu.
In his eyes, there were only the peacock eye spots that repeatedly shattered and reformed.
The spinning of the Sun Crystal Seed inside his body reached a shocking rate. It gave off threads of magnetism and even the three suns on his back were slowly pulling at the rampaging sea of fire inside Zuo Mo's body.
The thing that appeared in Zuo Mo's mind slowly became clear.
Zuo Mo who had lost the ability to think a long time ago did not think at all. He instinctively changed according to what the thing in his mind said.
He punched again and again!
But without knowing it, each punch had started to vary in minute changes.
The speed that Zuo Mo punched was very quick. It was a storm that was so rapid, people could not catch it.
The tiny changes accumulated under this shocking speed. In a blink, people detected the change in his punches!
Translator Ramblings: Peacocks … … important animal in Chinese mythology, especially in the Investiture of the Gods. The first peacock, Kong Xuan is a child of the phoenix and extremely powerful. He ate Siddhartha before he became Buddha and when Siddhartha achieved Buddhahood, Kong Xuan was called "the mother of Buddha" as a Buddha came out of his body. So peacocks … … noble bloodline.
Actually, based on bloodline alone, I’m not sure who is more noble. In more mordern Chinese mythology … … the peacock is the child of the phoenix which comes before the yao in history. However, Di Qun, the father of the 10 golden crows, was the Emperor of Heaven.
Chapter 605: Peacock King Plume
Shen Yu gazed indifferently at Zuo Mo.
There wasn't any hint of change in his expression. The Peacock Eyespot Domain was full of variations, and using brute force against it would be of no use at all. Smug satisfaction flashed through his indifferent eyes.
Everything within the Peacock Eyespot Domain was within his grasp. He was like a mo god of the ancient era standing on top of the highest of peaks and looking at his enemies who were like minuscule ants beneath him. This feeling was so intoxicating.
Watching as his opponent smash the ground like an idiot, a hint of scorn flashed at Shen Yu's lips.
How about adding to the fire?
A mocking smile hung upon Shen Yu's lips, he raised his right hand again.
Suddenly, his gaze landed on Zuo Mo's right fist, and his smile froze.
What … … what was that?
———
Zuo Mo felt as though a sea of fire was roaring inside of him! The entire sea of fire was being agitated and pulled upon. The little Sun Crystal Seed and the other three suns were like an invisible hand that pulled on the entire sea of fire!
The blurry scenes that floated in his mind were like silent murmurs that urged Zuo Mo on.
Savagery and restlessness caused Zuo Mo to be unhesitating with his attacks. He punched down with his right hand like the scene in his mind!
Boom!
A spark formed between his fist and the ground before floating in the air.
None noticed this spark which was the size of a pin.
Even Zuo Mo d
id not notice. The sea of fire that was shifting inside his body was like a heavy block of wood being hoisted into the air. Every time he punched, the wood would fall down. The feeling was pleasurable and free; it was as though he could smash through anything!
One punch after another!
Dots of sparks flew from his fist and floated in the air. No matter how the waves of air moved, they seemed to be suspended motionlessly in the air.
The sparks increased in number, and soon everyone noticed it!
Still, Zuo Mo did not notice. The three suns on his back seemed to come alive and were revolving at a very slow rate. The golden lines that connected them changed as well.
The fiery pillar smashed into Zuo Mo's right arm every time he punched and stopped when it reached his wrist.
Zuo Mo did not know what this technique this was, but its name suddenly appeared in his mind.
Sun Hammer!
What was that … …
Zuo Mo was in an unclear state of mind, but he did not care and followed accordingly.
A thread of shen power exploded into sparks when it encountered the pillar of fire!
Drunk, Zuo Mo felt that the power of this technique wasn't satisfying enough. He tried all he could to layer all kinds of power into his fist.
Sky Glass Wave! Shen Power! Fire Fist of the First Heavenly Stem! Sun Hammer!
Each punch was changing, becoming heavier!
Boom!
The ground shook.
Boom!
The trembling of the earth became even more evident.
Soon after, all the tables and chairs started to rattle . The beautiful matrons on the stands screamed and they could feel the stands vibrating!
No one paid attention to the screams. They all stared closely at the battlefield. They stopped breathing and didn't dare to blink.
The trembling of the earth increased, and the plates on the table clinked.
How heavy was Xiao Mo Ge's fist!
In order to guarantee that those outside the field were not affected, there had been layers of jinzhi set around the battlefield. Yet the vibrations outside the field were so strong. People could not imagine just how powerful Xiao Mo Ge's punches were!
———
"Such terrifying power." Yu Shuang murmured to himself. His expression changed slightly. "This kind of brute force probably rivals those of the Iron-mountain Elephant Clan."
Shi Yue Yi's gaze was deep and his tone slightly reminiscent. "My master once said that people that could drink more than ten jars of Granny Meng Ghost Wine were all special people."
"Special people?" Chang Yuan Hao instantly grasped the most important part of the sentence.
"My master did not explain what he meant." Shi Yue Yi shook his head. "I've never changed the recipe for this Granny Meng Ghost Wine. I also want to know what kind of person that my master would deem special is like."
When he finished speaking, his tone carried a thread of anticipation and excitement.
Chang Yuan Hao was slightly shocked. The City Master was usually composed and at ease, as though he was confident no matter the situation. It was the first time he saw such an expression on City Master's face.
Yu Shuang's gaze did not move away from the battlefield. "Now it is time to see how far Shen Yu's Peacock Eyespot Domain has progressed and if he can withstand this."
The three closed their mouths and gazed at the battlefield among the strong vibrations.
———
Shen Yu's expression changed slightly.
He seemed to be standing on the surface of a drum as someone continued to bang on it. With every beat, the ground trembled and the vibration increased in strength.
The peacock eyespots were still maintaining themselves on the ground, but Shen Yu could feel that they were being shaken and becoming unstable!
What kind of freak was this person?
He almost did not believe his own eyes. The other was able to express such power within the Peacock Eyespot Domain. This guy … …
Within the Peacock Eyespot Domain, every eyespot was a whirlpool. He had just managed to cultivate the Peacock Eyespot Domain two years ago, but there were already nine hundred and ninety eyespots in his Peacock Eyespot Domain!
With nine hundred and ninety eyespots moving simultaneously, someone weaker would have been torn apart immediately. Even if their body was strong, under the power of nine hundred and ninety peacock eyespots, they would be like a fly that had flown into a spiderweb and would tangle themselves up even as they struggled.
And finally, when the power entangled the enemy till they were unable to move, Shen Yu could easily go in for the kill under the other's terrified gaze.
However … …
He looked hard at Zuo Mo. For some unknown reason, he felt a wave of coldness. He knew that Xiao Mo Ge felt the effects of the Peacock Eyespot Domain. Xiao Mo Ge's body had visibly paused when he entered the Peacock Eyespot Domain.
Yet, Xiao Mo Ge was raining down punches on the ground like he was mad!
These actions that had seemed extremely idiotic to him, now caused Shen Yu to feel a sense of danger.
He could not just sit and wait!
Shen Yu seemed to wake up and viciousness flashed through his eyes.
He decided to use that move!
———
Zuo Mo felt unprecedentedly good. The drunkenness rose to his mind and he was even more excited. The peacock eyespot in front of him did not have the time to reform before it was smashed apart again. As Zuo Mo's punches became heavier, the terrifying power spread out and produced wave after wave of rainbow ripples.
So good!
Zuo Mo laughed madly into the air as he continued to punch!
Punching at a rate that was so fast that robbed people of their breath, the strong fire shifted restlessly inside Zuo Mo's body. He was like a person that was dying of thirst and furiously searching for water. What he was trying to find were ways that could get the power of his punches to be stronger.
The more power that came from the collision of the fire, the more shen power would come out of his body!
The mo matrix on Zuo Mo's right fist was blindingly bright and drew out streaks of light in the air as he moved it rapidly.
Now under the blinding streaks of light, no one could see the scattered sparks that floated in the air.
At this time, the peacock eyespots under his feet seemed to be attracted by a magnet and started to gather in one direction.
With his eyes blurred in drunkenness, Zuo Mo stopped moving and watched as the eyespots moved past his foot. He slowly moved his head and looked in the direction the peacock eyespots had disappeared into.
The peacock eyespots on the ground and in the air were gathering on Shen Yu's body.
Shen Yu was completely transformed at this moment. Peacock feathers had crawled up his body and entered his mo matrix. The peacock crown on Shen Yu's forehead seemed to come alive, the wings spreading. In a flash, its spread wings covered Shen Yu's head. It transformed into an exquisite helmet that only showed Shen Yu's eyes; a peacock feather that was about half a chi long appeared in Shen Yu's hand!
Zuo Mo stilled, remembering that he had made a bet with the person in front of him.
But he could not remember what the bet was about.
How could Little Mo Ge lose a bet?
Zuo Mo swayed as he moved to face Shen Yu.
———
No one dared to underestimate this drunken youth any longer. Every one of his punches seemed to land upon their minds.
However, when Shen Yu's transformation was revealed, especially that five-colored peacock feather, exclamations rang out in the crowd.
"Peacock King Plume!"
Even Yu Shuang could not keep his composure from where he was in the stands. He suddenly stood up and stared hard at the battlefield with a stunned expression. "This guy even managed to cultivate the Peacock King Plume; the Shen Family really produced someone amazing!"
Peac
ock King Plume, the famed killing move of the Shen Family, and one of the top killing moves even among the many prestigious families of Hundred Savage Realm. There were numerous foes in the history of the Shen Family that had fallen to this move.
The founder of the Shen Family had used this move to kill seventy-nine generals, astounding the world and then founding the Shen Family.
The Peacock King Plume was very powerful, but it was just as difficult to cultivate as it was strong. Even now, the number of those who had cultivated the Peacock King Plume in the Shen Family lineage could be counted on one hand. Those that wanted to cultivate the Peacock King Plume had to have a deep understanding of the Peacock Eyespot Domain.
The difficulty in achieving the Peacock Eyespot Domain was high to start with. There was just a handful of Shen Family descendants that could comprehend the Peacock Eyespot Domain in each generation and even fewer among those that could comprehend the Peacock King Plume.
So when Yu Shuang saw the peacock feather in Shen Yu's hand, the shock he felt could be imagined.
"Incomplete." Chang Yuan Hao suddenly spoke.
"It is enough," Yu Shuang sighed lightly. "He is so young and able to cultivate the Peacock King Plume. That kind of talent is probably not any less than the founder of the Shen Family."
Chang Yuan Hao was silent. Yu Shuang was right.
Shen Yu's talent was so high that it was shocking.
He looked at the swaying and drunken youth. He felt pity inside. This youth was also talented, but he probably had not expected to encounter a genius of the century like Shen Yu.
Such a pity.
Feeling pity, Chang Yuan Hao suddenly looked across Zuo Mo's feet and his gaze focused abruptly.
That was … …
A single ball of sparks floated silently next to Zuo Mo's feet.
Translator Ramblings: Yeah, Zuo Mo's a bit of a hulk right now … … high on alcohol … … with sparkles.
Chapter 606: Reversed Stellar Revolution
A hint of fear flashed through Shen Yu's eyes as he stared at his opponent. For some reason, the Peacock King Plume in his hand was not as reassuring to him as he had expected. The person standing in front of him was struggling with his domain and didn't have the presence of an expert. He was a flailing drunkard that could be found on any street corner.
