By this point, Gao Kui was almost at his breaking point, not because he had suffered a severe injury or exhausted his strength, but because his mind was becoming increasingly foggy and his consciousness increasingly blurred.
It's possible that the assessment of Longinus was flawed, or that Gao Kui had a misunderstanding of Longinus and his own mental illness, which led to Longinus's immortal protection not exempting Gao Kui from the indirect influence of royal power.
The unidirectional gravity, several times stronger than normal, acted on Gao Kui's body, causing the blood in his body to sink to his feet under the influence of gravity, resulting in a severe lack of blood supply to his brain.
The reduced blood supply led to severe hypoxia in the brain tissue of the high-energy glutathione, resulting in sudden onset of symptoms such as dizziness, tinnitus, blurred vision, hallucinations, vertigo, and weakness in the limbs. These symptoms gradually worsened during the battle, eventually leading to blindness and shock.
Genji saw the dawn of victory, while Gao Kui saw another world, or more precisely, an angel.
He possessed an androgynous and handsome appearance, with a pair of white wings on his back emitting a faint light. His long golden hair shone brightly under the light of the wings. He held a greatsword in one hand and a scale in the other, leaning over Gao Kui as if to embrace him.
He said, “God Jehovah is my refuge.”
You have made the Most High your dwelling place; no evil will come upon you, nor will any disaster approach your tent.
For He will command His messengers to protect you in all your ways.
They will support you with their hands so that your feet don't touch the stones.
You shall tread upon lions and vipers, and trample young lions and great snakes.
Gao Kui completely ignored the question of why he could still see the angel even though it was behind him, and said to the angel, "Can you replace it with Angewomon?"
Upon seeing the angel, Gao Kui didn't ponder why the angel had descended or which angel was behind it; instead, he immediately thought of Angewomon from Digimon.
When they were kids, Gao Kui and his friends would always discuss which Digimon was stronger and which was more awesome after watching Digimon.
The most popular are definitely Agumon and Patamon. WarGreymon is just too cool, carrying the team from start to finish. He truly deserves the title of leader and regular season MVP. Angemon and HolyAngemon are also both cool and awesome. Without them, we couldn't have defeated Devimon and Piedmon. They are the FMVPs.
Among the many Digimon from the first generation of main characters, Gatomon's lineage is quite disliked by Kouki and his friends. Gatomon's strength fluctuates wildly, often getting mixed up with Rookie-level Digimon. Angewomon is also a weakling; as an Ultimate-level Digimon, she's frequently paired with Champion-level Angemon, and her battle record isn't great, making her more of a Champion piece.
As he grew older, Gao Kui gradually realized that controversy was meaningless; what mattered was not intensity, but love! He really shouldn't have slandered Angewomon. If he could do it all over again, he would definitely choose Angewomon, and the yellow-skinned little dinosaur could go to hell.
The angel, holding a greatsword and scales, was both amused and exasperated, and said, "As you command."
In an instant, the angel's appearance changed. The pair of wings on its back became four pairs, a metal helmet appeared on its forehead, and its facial features became softer. The greatsword and scales transformed into Angewomon's sexy bodysuit, which was worn by the angel.
"Celestial Beast" closed her arms and embraced Gao Kui from behind.
Clang!
In the real world, Gao Kui, whose limbs were weak and whose consciousness was blurred, could no longer hold onto Longinus. The long sword that brought immortal protection was finally smashed away by Genjiro and hovered in the ceiling.
"I told you, it should be how long you can hold me off!"
The iron-gray liquid flowed and undulated, and Yuan Zhisheng breathed heavily, holding the Spider Cutter, his lava-red-gold eyes locking onto Gao Kui.
Without Longinus, it would be difficult for the Northern Qi prince to resist Genjiro, whose bloodline had evolved and who had unlocked the domain of royal power. Is this battle finally coming to an end...?
Yuan Zhisheng's eyelids twitched as he stared at Gao Kui, sensing something was wrong. Gao Kui, who had been bound by gravity ever since the opening of the Royal Domain, seemed to have suddenly been exempted from gravity, and a truly relieved expression appeared on his face.
Dozens of chaotic airflow channels landed behind Gao Kui, intertwining and forming a pair of airflow "wings," which then closed.
The ancient Hebrew words uttered from Gao Kui's mouth carried a subtle pause, like the language of God echoing between floors.
This is a dead language; the language used by modern Israelis is modern Hebrew, while ancient Hebrew is only used in the field of religious studies.
Yuan Zhisheng was completely stunned. Was the Northern Qi prince chanting? If he was chanting, shouldn't he be using the Dragon Language? The Northern Qi prince was clearly not using the Dragon Language.
Genjiro didn't understand ancient Hebrew, but he could tell that it was definitely not dragon language.
Furthermore, chanting is a necessary step in using the Word of Power. The prince of Northern Qi used the Word of Power: Yin Flow from beginning to end, but he never chanted it.
So what exactly is he trying to achieve by chanting now?
Spiral Stairs
butterfly
FIG tree
bridge
Nibelungen
十架
Longinus
Suffering Path
butterfly
angel
Michael
One byte after another was uttered from Gao Kui's mouth. With each byte, the gold in his eyes became deeper and more intense. After the second "butterfly", Gao Kui's eyes had turned into the same lava reddish-gold color as Yuan Zhisheng.
Yuan Zhisheng felt increasingly uneasy; his heart pounded uncontrollably, and he even felt a faint urge to worship the other person.
He was an emperor, and even the most incompetent emperor was still an emperor, supreme and needing no worship. But standing before him was not a human, but a being of a higher level, a god, or a messenger of a god.
The idea of the divine right of kings has been prevalent for a considerable period of time in both the East and the West.
Do we really need to worship?
Yuan Zhisheng roared and lunged at the Northern Qi prince with his sword. Normally, such worship wouldn't have mattered; the Snake Clan would have had their spines broken by Angers long ago. But this was different.
Yuan Zhisheng refused to believe that what was before him was a god, or a messenger of a god.
"Get out!" Gao Kui shouted sternly. This was not a chant; he spoke it in Japanese.
Beyond the realms of Yin Liu and Wang Quan, another realm unfolds, its scope far exceeding the thirty-meter radius of Yin Liu and the Wang Quan that envelops the entire building. There are no blind spots in any direction, and its radius reaches an astonishing three kilometers.
The domain of the monarchy was covered, and the gravitational pull of the monarchy, along with the Earth's own gravity, was covered and rewritten as a reverse gravitational pull, with Gao Kui as the center point.
Yuan Zhisheng had already pounced on Gao Kui, and the sharp tip of the Spider Cutter was about to touch Gao Kui's chest. It was only three centimeters away from piercing Gao Kui's chest and disemboweling him.
But those three centimeters were a distance that Genji could never cross, no matter what.
The distance is infinitely subdivided. Every time Yuan Zhisheng gets closer to Gao Kui, the distortion of the anti-gravity force released from a central point in Gao Kui's chest doubles, meaning that any object wanting to get any closer to Gao Kui needs to do twice as much work. Theoretically, there is no limit to the increase in anti-gravity; it can continue to increase as long as the length can be further subdivided.
The force of Yuan Zhisheng's lunge was finally neutralized by the anti-gravity emitted by Gao Kui, and at a certain point in time, he and Gao Kui reached a relative standstill.
Time continued to flow, as if being pulled by something, and Yuan Zhisheng flew backward and crashed heavily into the tempered glass wall.
Not only Yuan Zhisheng, but all non-fixed objects within the domain—pedestrians, cars, desks, flowers, birds, insects, and fish—were affected by the anti-gravity force emitted by Gao Kui. The closer one was to Gao Kui, the more pronounced the effect.
People on the seventh floor and above of the Genji Heavy Industries building were all pressed against the ceiling, while those on the lower floors were pressed directly below.
Outside the building, pedestrians and cars walking on the ground felt as if they were walking on a mountain wall approaching 90 degrees. The anti-gravity strength within one meter of Gao Kui's face from the edge of the domain was approximately 1 to 5 times that of Earth's gravity, increasing with distance. Although the anti-gravity effect became less pronounced with distance from Gao Kui, the relative angle between the distance to Gao Kui and the ground increased.
The entire Shinjuku Ward was in complete chaos. With a radius of three kilometers, the area covered by the region alone was 28.27 square kilometers, while the total area of Shinjuku Ward was only 18.22 square kilometers.
Genjiro, who had been slammed against the wall, spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he obeyed the repulsive force emanating from Gao Kui and stood on the glass wall. He looked down at the world "below" him, which was outside the building. All the non-fixed objects on the ground were falling into the "deeper abyss". Even though Genjiro's eyesight was sharper than an eagle's, he could not see how deep the abyss was below him.
"It's too exaggerated."
Yuan Zhisheng's lips twitched, and he raised his head again, speechless as he looked at Gao Kui above him. Could such a vast domain really be achieved by a hybrid? Was the one standing "above" him not a dragon king in human skin?
"Now, even without Longinus, you can no longer hurt me."
With his brain regaining normal blood flow and the dizziness gone, Gao Kui remained expressionless as he looked up at Yuan Zhisheng standing on the tempered glass. He understood everything.
To paraphrase the narration from "Kamen Rider Black RX," in that moment when he was feeling dizzy, something incredible happened: Archangel Michael transformed into the incredibly otaku-friendly Angewomon and bestowed upon him his blessing.
Michael's blessing further enhanced his bloodline, bringing him to a level comparable to that of Genjiro before him, and awakened his second Word of Power.
As sung in the hymn recited by Michael, once the second word of power opens its domain, it can keep all calamities and disasters from the outside world away from him.
Not only material calamities and disasters, but also abstract calamities and disasters in the realms of metaphysics, theology, and the spirit, including but not limited to curses, misfortune, bad luck, disease, and death...
The only flaw that isn't really a defect is that this repulsion fails when Gao Kui actively comes into contact with the object of repulsion.
Gao Kui named this second Word of Power "New Moon," inspired, of course, by "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure."
Chapter 169 A Soft and Weak Refusal
Gao Kui lunged at Yuan Zhisheng. As the user of "New Moon", he was not affected by any of the disordered gravitational fields of the New Moon Domain, and could use any plane in any direction at any angle as a foothold. No matter how he stood or walked, it was as if he were walking on flat ground.
Bang!
Gao Kui landed on the reinforced glass wall of the Genji Heavy Industries building, then instantly launched himself towards Genji Chisei, throwing a punch without using the First Word of Power, Yin Style.
Yuan Zhisheng was overjoyed.
He could clearly sense that when Gao Kui lunged at him, the disordered gravity still existed, but the anti-gravity that grew stronger the closer he got to Gao Kui seemed to have disappeared.
Just as Genji was about to throw a punch in retaliation, the seemingly vanished anti-gravity suddenly reappeared, acting on the fist and arm that were swinging towards Gao Kui.
Bang!
Gao Kui punched Yuan Zhisheng in the face, making the noble emperor see stars. Then he knelt on one knee on Yuan Zhisheng's chest, grabbed Yuan Zhisheng's fist, and rained down punches.
The iron-gray scales covering Yuan Zhisheng's face were peeled off piece by piece. After more than a dozen punches, Yuan Zhisheng's face was already bruised and swollen. Gao Kui's fists were also a bloody mess, with Yuan Zhisheng's blood and his own blood.
When the fist lands on Genji's face, the crescent moon will no longer protect the part of the fist that makes contact with Genji's face. When the contact between the two disappears, the crescent moon's anti-gravity will take effect again.
Forces are reciprocal. It must be said that Genjiro's bones and scales are really hard. After a dozen punches, Gao Kui's fist was bruised and bloodied, revealing the jade-like, crystal-clear indestructible bone beneath the skin.
"You fucking dare to fight back?"
His hand was only slightly scraped, nothing to worry about whether Longinus was there or not; it just hurt a little. In the past, Gao Kui wouldn't have even flinched if he were hit by a truck and smashed to pieces; he was a true man, spirited and unyielding, hardened by countless battles.
What truly enraged Gao Kui was Yuan Zhisheng's attitude. "You fought back when my bloodline hadn't improved, and now that I've been blessed by Archangel Michael, you still fight back. Did Michael come here for nothing?"
Enraged, Gao Kui punched Yuan Zhisheng repeatedly in the corners of his eyes and on the bridge of his nose, his fingers digging into Yuan Zhisheng's throat, and his knees nearly crushing Yuan Zhisheng's chest.
I can't breathe.
As Genjiro struggled to breathe, his consciousness grew increasingly hazy, and his counterattack punches failed to land on Gao Kui. Slowly, Genjiro finally understood everything, and understood exactly how Gao Kui's second Word of Power operated.
Between one meter in front of you and 3000 meters away, the anti-gravity in this vast space is 5 to 1 times that of Earth's normal gravity, and the anti-gravity decreases with distance.
一米以内，大概每前进一半距离，反引力就会在5倍常规引力的程度上X2。也就是1米远5倍反引力，0.5米远10倍，0.25米远20倍……
As long as the distance can be further subdivided, the strength of anti-gravity will accumulate infinitely.
When Gao Kui approaches him, the gradually increasing anti-gravity within one meter will become ineffective, and the basic gravity will fluctuate between five times and no anti-gravity at all, to ensure that Gao Kui can actively make contact with him.
During the process of Gao Kui taking the initiative to contact him but not yet actually making contact, once he wants to retaliate and take the initiative to contact Gao Kui, the gradually intensifying attraction will be reflected in the part of him exerting force and doing work.
In short, Gao Kui can unilaterally and unaffected by the new moon actively contact any calamity or disaster, and the other party can never take the initiative to contact him in return.
The actual effect is what we see now: Gao Kui can beat Yuan Zhisheng so badly that Yuan Zhisheng is unable to retaliate even once; no matter what, his fists can't land on Gao Kui.
