Chapter 677 Lingyue Black Wave Pool
Wow~wow~
A ripple suddenly appeared on the calm water, and as the water surged, a small whirlpool suddenly rose up, seemingly foreshadowing something that was about to happen.
boom! ! ! ! !
After spinning for a moment, the vortex suddenly bulged out, followed by a loud bang and a splash of water, as two figures emerged from the waves one after the other.
Upon closer inspection, the two figures were none other than Merust and Lin Tian, who had fought in the Dark Mud Land earlier. At this moment, the two suddenly rushed out of the water, collided violently in the air, and were both pushed back.
Step~
The two landed on the water at the same time, stood steadily, and turned their gazes toward Melust first.
Hoo~ Ha~ Ha~ Ha~
A rapid panting sound came from behind. Judging from the situation, Merust was in a rather disheveled state. His strong body was covered with many dents and bumps, which looked like they were caused by some kind of blunt object. Clearly, he had just suffered a series of blows from Lin Tian.
On the other side, Lin Tian was in better condition than him. He had no obvious injuries, but if you looked closely, you would find that his breathing was a bit disordered, which meant that he had probably used up a lot of energy.
The battleground between the two was no longer the muddy ground they had fought before. After Melust let out that strange cry, the surrounding environment changed.
To be precise, Lin Tian was momentarily distracted after hearing the roar, and the surroundings had already changed.
The sky was pitch black, the lake water was inky black, and a few withered trees stretched from the water to the surface. Below was a dark and gloomy landscape. In the sky, besides the blackness, there was a grayish-white full moon.
To be precise, it wasn't the moon, but rather a white blob formed by a large mixture of some grayish-white substances.
A secret realm?
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Tian's first thought was of a secret realm, since it wasn't the first time he had seen one. However, upon closer reflection, it was possible that this was not a secret realm at all.
Lin Tian looked up at the gray moon. The gray moon seemed to sense his gaze, and its body trembled slightly. Seeing this, Lin Tian's brows furrowed.
This special moon wasn't just hanging there; Lin Tian could clearly sense that it wanted to draw something from him, but he couldn't.
This behavior has been tried many times. Each time, Lin Tian can feel a special ray of moonlight shining on him, but it disappears suddenly after a while.
At this time, the moon would tremble slightly, as if it were getting angry.
Could it be... magic?
By observing the moon's appearance, Lin Tian recalled the small-toothed monsters from before, who attacked him to tear off a portion of his magical power. The way that magical power was extracted was somewhat similar to this moon.
Based on the current situation, Lin Tian deduced that the moon might be trying to strip away his magical power through moonlight. However, since his magical power was currently locked within the Forbidden Word Technique, the moon was unable to strip away his magical power, which was why it felt so angry.
The reason Lin Tian said this might not be a secret realm was based on his observation of the moon.
When the moonlight shone on him, he would try to reduce and strip away his magic power. However, the moonlight shone over a wide area, and while it shone on Lin Tian, it also fell on Merust.
However, the moonlight did not strip Merus of anything; instead, it recharged and healed him. Under the layers of moonlight, Merus's condition improved more and more.
Not only that, besides the moon, there was also the strange black water beneath his feet. He had just fought with Merust and entered the black water, and found that the black water was also quite strange.
The visibility beneath the Blackwater was extremely low. Even with Lin Tian's excellent eyesight, he couldn't see anything clearly in the distance. However, judging from the outcome of his battle with Merust, Merust was not affected by this.
In addition, there was another layer of pressure on him, whether it was water pressure or some unknown force. This force not only slowed down Lin Tian's mobility but also weakened his perception, which could be said to have put a debuff on him.
However, as mentioned before, this effect had no impact on Merust; on the contrary, it subtly strengthened him.
Whether viewed from the perspective of the moon or the Blackwater, this special situation is weakening Lin Tian and strengthening Merust.
Lin Tian has been in this world for quite some time now and has seen many secret realms, including all sorts of strange and wonderful ones.
However, this was the first time he had ever seen a secret realm that so purely favored one person while weakening another. Of course, it wasn't to say that such secret realms didn't exist, but when he saw this scene, Lin Tian suddenly recalled a professional term he knew.
That is domain technology.
To be precise, in written records, it is more often referred to as the realm of heroes.
As its name suggests, this is a special ability that can only be unlocked upon reaching the Hero rank, and not every Hero rank possesses it. Rather, it is a unique skill that heroes unlock by developing their own abilities.
Each hero has a different area of expertise, but most of their development tends to focus on one thing: strengthening their own side or weakening the enemy, or both.
Whether it's a pure power buff or an effect on the terrain, domain skills can bring a significant boost to the combat power of their users.
For example, right now, after using this ability, which is similar to a domain technique, Merust is able to confront Lin Tian, who has activated the Forbidden Word Technique, head-on, and even has a subtle suppressive effect.
It's important to know that Lin Tian is no weakling now. The enhancement from the Forbidden Word Technique makes him like a little superman. In terms of physical strength alone, some guys who have just entered the Hero rank might not be his match.
To put it more dramatically, Lin Tian is just not used to it yet. Once he gets used to it as the battle progresses, he won't have any problem getting his opponent pinned to the ground and beaten up.
However, combat in the Heroic tier is not entirely based on stats; personal development is also extremely important, as the existence of a domain can greatly influence the course of a battle.
The environment Lin Tian is currently in is very similar to the domain technique that Merust has unleashed. After all, he is also a hero-level being, so it is not surprising that he has this ability.
Of course, it's not surprising, but that doesn't stop Lin Tian from finding this domain troublesome. Looking at Merust's wicked smile, Lin Tian couldn't help but frown and secretly ponder a strategy to deal with the enemy.
Perhaps sensing that Lin Tian had noticed something amiss, when faced with Lin Tian's unfriendly gaze, Melust bared his teeth, revealing an exaggerated yet somewhat strange expression as he laughed:
