Breakthrough (II)
"My location tool, it's you." As these words fell, Ying Yungui's heart was alarmed. No wonder he couldn't find the medium of energy in this area just now, because he didn't count himself.
The hands gripping his forearm weren't exerting any force, so to any third party, it looked as if the man in black had just said it casually. Ying Yungui had no choice but to loosen his collar and pull his arm away, trying to temporarily distance himself. As they exchanged blows, the back of his hand brushed against the other man's fingertips.
The sense of crisis reached its peak at that moment. Before Ying Yungui could even close his distance, the surrounding environment shifted. The frost on the rice paddies was no longer a continuous sheet, nor did it disappear. Instead, it hung in the air in staggered patterns, rigidly separated from the ground.
A hundred steps closer, the wheels slid slightly back and forth, as if ready to start at any moment.
A little closer, the black robe of the person opposite Ying Yungui was floating in the opposite direction, which was contrary to the laws of physics.
"So the level of this limiter is so high?" At the moment when the fingertip brushed against the back of Ying Yungui's hand, the man in black touched the silver ring on the little finger and planted the coordinate mark on it. At this moment, the ring was no longer on Ying Yungui's hand.
"You!" Ying Yungui's expression suddenly changed. He didn't even have time to think about how the other party had broken through his surface space. The moment the ring left his body, this space was disturbed by the energy pouring out of him.
If he could still fight without changing his expression when the association's ring left his body, then when his own ring, which he had worn for twenty years, was cut off from his body, he realized that tonight's events were by no means simple.
After all, that ring was tailor-made by the association's headquarters to provide a storage space for the huge amount of energy flowing throughout his body, allowing him to practice without any worries. It is a highest-level limiter.
Even though he felt that the effect of the ring was getting weaker and weaker in recent years, and even when the nightmare almost drained all his energy at the border mountain south of Area 9, he did not dare to take it off.
This guy who was "positioning and moving" obviously knew the significance of the ring to him, which was why he did this.
Normally, no matter how fierce the battle was, Ying Yungui would just take off his earrings. But now, after many years, he once again felt the energy rushing through his body, and for a moment he couldn't even care about the person in front of him.
The man in black unlocked the surface space and reconnected with the coordinates. He moved to the rear of the car in an instant, held down the fluttering hem of his clothes with his hands, took a look at the surroundings, and shouted to Ying Yungui from afar, "If you don't find a solution, I'll take your ring!"
This sound brought Ying Yungui back to his senses. He clenched his palms, turned around, and said, "How did you break through the surface space?"
The man in black seemed to roll his eyes insincerely: "No way, you can't even think of this? And you still ask me?" Thinking of his teacher's instructions to him, he was indeed very dissatisfied with his opponent's performance.
The frost still floated around, but the car had stabilized and stopped shaking. Ying Yungui was now multitasking. Not only did he have to suppress his energy to prevent it from escaping too much and too quickly, he also had to allocate some energy to sense the ring's location, and at the same time, he was making a third-hand arrangement.
"Based on my experience, your ability level isn't above mine." Ying Yungui's left hand, held behind his back, twitched slightly, his face still smiling. "Also, your maximum coordinate limit is only 5...6. With your current level, it's impossible for you to break through the barrier from the outside."
The man in black laughed heartily after hearing this. "You're a prime example of why they say the association can't teach true psychics." He loosened his grip on the hem of his shirt, opened his palm upward, and the next second, Ying Yungui's ring lay quietly within it. "But I have no obligation to teach you. If you want to get this thing back, just try to touch me."
He even used the word "encountered" instead of "caught". How confident must he be in his abilities to say such words in front of a telekinetic person whose energy level is higher than his own.
"Oh, by the way, you don't have any weapons, right? Then you can only keep up with my speed yourself." As soon as he finished speaking, his figure began to shuttle between several coordinate points again, and his speed was even faster than before.
Ying Yungui stood there and looked for a few seconds, feeling dizzy. He then closed his eyes and said, "You look down on the association like this. I guess you don't know the rules above the rules."
"Although you can't directly apply without the bracelet, in this case, the psychic has the power to open a domain without responsibility. I guess you don't know this."
Because there was no detection and reminder from the bracelet terminal, the domain expanded by Ying Yungui was not broadcast out in the form of a voice reminder, but was transmitted to the association's information monitoring center like the previous alarm.
After sensing the five clear energy coordinate points, Ying Yungui, who had been called a genius with special abilities since childhood and therefore naturally had a sense of arrogance, opened his eyes and said, "Also, I'm not like you who dares not get close without a weapon."
"Everything in this world is my weapon."
As he said this, the man in black appeared next to the paddy field on the right. With several "swoosh" sounds, the provocateur who had just stepped on the soft ground was hit in multiple joints by the stones. The sudden attack made him lose his balance in an instant and fall into the muddy field.
"You!" He barely managed to get the first word out before Ying Yungui, who had arrived in a flash, kneed him in the tailbone and twisted his hands behind his back. Unidentified objects bound his wrists tightly. When he realized he couldn't teleport to another coordinate point, an unhappy voice echoed from behind him: "How you mock the Association is your business, but if you say I'm incompetent, you'll have to pay the price."
"ha?"
"I don't need your instruction," Ying Yungui muttered, exerting force on his hands, tightening the hemp rope even more, leaving a noticeable indentation on the man's wrist. "I don't care what method you use to break through the surface barrier, but unless you break through from the outside world, you can forget about leaving this domain."
He stepped on the black-clad man's back and twirled the layers of hemp rope into a bow. Then he walked around to the man and said condescendingly, "You dare to act so arrogantly in front of me with a broken positioning move? You're so arrogant! I thought you were a level 9 ability user."
"Don't you like to take off my bracelets and rings? It just so happens that the association has received the alarm and people will probably be here soon. I'll wait here with you." After saying this, Ying Yungui didn't even get the man out of the mud field. Instead, he sat down on the side of the raised path and looked at the man who was forced to hunch over at his feet.
The man in black couldn't break free and couldn't free his hands. All his previous coordinates were cut off the moment Ying Yungui's domain was unfolded, so he couldn't teleport out of the mud.
He hunched his upper body, surveyed the scattered stones at his feet, and with a strange, forceful kick, he sent one flying. He then activated his ability to create coordinates. "Hey, do you think I'm dead?" Ying Yungui's voice drifted from overhead.
He clearly sensed that the coordinates had been successfully created, but he lost contact with them in just a moment, so it was natural that he failed to escape.
"What? Can't figure it out? It's so strange?" Ying Yungui smiled at him, his chin resting on his head. "You can't even think of this? Then I'll be kind enough to teach you." He got a handful of gravel from somewhere and started swirling it in his palm. Then he casually tossed one out. "Since the 'surface space' I created in you wasn't broken from the outside, it must be something you did inside."
"All you can do is establish coordinates on yourself and try to break through by approaching the edge of space. To put it nicely, it's high-density ability utilization, but to put it bluntly, it's just...
"It's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse." Ying Yungui only admitted in his heart that he was not proficient enough in this skill, so he was easily hit by an accident, but he would never mention this in front of his defeated opponent.
"You're to blame for destroying my limiter. I used to rely on the power of the middle to expand the surface space on non-living things, but I just did it casually in the domain."
The man in black listened with gritted teeth as Ying Yungui talked about the use of his not-so-simple abilities as easily as if he was talking about what he had for dinner. He had already figured out the key after reflecting on it just now.
Since "surface space" can unfold on the human body, it can naturally unfold on the surface of objects. I can use my ability to break through the barrier, but objects cannot. Therefore, all the coordinates I previously established are like the stone that was kicked away, their surfaces covered by a separate "surface space", actively isolating myself from it.
The current situation is that he is in the "big circle" of Ying Yungui's domain, and is excluded from the "small circle" generated around all coordinates. Moreover, the "small circle" can be formed instantly under the "big circle", and there is no time left for error.
"Damn...if it weren't for your domain..."
The conversation was cut short. "Even if you didn't take my bracelet and limiter, even if I didn't have the domain's assistance, could you beat me in space?" Ying Yungui threw two stones in succession. The second one collided with the first one in mid-air, splitting it in two. The three small stones fell into the mud together.
"He who does not take the battle seriously does not deserve to win."
Ying Yungui stood up under the astonished gaze of the man in black and turned toward the front of the car. He had limited the boundary of his domain to two hundred meters, as his ring lay in the grass over there. He wanted to keep the ring within his sensing range, but he also wanted to minimize the risk of losing control of his energy, so he kept the domain as small as possible.
The man in black had clearly lost all his initial momentum, standing there in a daze. He was lost in thought when Ying Yungui said, "If I were you, I'd at least understand the opponent's abilities and past combat experience before challenging him. Even if I'm not as good as him, I can guarantee a thrilling fight."
"Instead of waiting for your companions to rescue you like you are now."
Ying Yungui was still staring in that direction. He sensed the ring's position was slowly moving, and it was coming towards him, which meant—
Someone entered his domain.
