The singer, after being confined here, delved deep into Shaga's psyche.
She discovered that Shaga's connection with this white demon was almost nonexistent; not only could they not communicate, they couldn't even sense each other.
"So, Shaga has almost no appetite."
"Completely out of sync with this world."
The singer continued her story.
The subsequent events involved using music to soothe the white ghost, earning its trust, and receiving a portion of the authority that rightfully belonged to Shaga.
This was the unique aspect of the singer's abilities.
Zhang Wei asked, "So, you stole part of Shaga's authority?"
Amazing!
A superpower!
Zhang Wei's estimation of the singer rose considerably.
As the two were discussing how to find the vampire, magician, and preacher... the sky tore open!
Shaga appeared, stepping on Buddhist light!
"Didn't you say Shaga couldn't find this place?"
"Uh oh..."
The dancer stammered, "This... this shouldn't happen. His abilities seem to have increased, increased a lot!"
Zhang Wei, accustomed to various secret techniques for power augmentation, was unfazed.
Even he had the trump card of the National Chef that he hadn't used.
However, the National Chef consumed energy at an exorbitant rate. Even Zhang Wei, with his vast reserves of energy, dared not use it frequently.
Zhang Wei looked up. "Aren't you hiding inside the Great Buddha's head anymore? You suddenly dare to face me directly... What, are you confident in this state?"
The singer beside him whispered, "Great Chef, he can't see me now."
"I'm not good at direct combat, I'm leaving. You must hold on!"
"Also, he's incredibly strong in this state. The method he used to enhance himself is very unstable, seemingly consuming his life force. Be careful!"
Zhang Wei turned his head.
Indeed, the singer was gone!
Damn it!
This guy!
People with such bizarre abilities are truly... bizarre!
Since it consumed life force, he would never engage in a war of attrition like before. If it was a direct confrontation, Zhang Wei had never feared anyone!
Shaga, with rare opening of his eyes.
"Zhang Wei, let us fight with all our might."
"So you aren't blind."
"I merely sealed my vision to better enhance my sixth sense and to excavate my body's potential. But now... there's no need for that!"
The Buddhist light shifted drastically!
Asura Form · Divine Eye!
Shaga's skills were as flamboyant as ever!
Asura is also one of the Buddhist deities, similar to the Wrathful King Kongs in Chinese Buddhism.
In this state, Shaga was extremely aggressive!
Everything in the sky dimmed, leaving only two eyes!
They seemed to pierce through heaven and earth, observing all things!
"Are you still borrowing the power of this minor realm?"
"You truly have the advantage of terrain!"
Zhang Wei was extremely vigilant!
Someone of Shaga's caliber wouldn't just come at him with fists. He must have some tricks up his sleeve.
Shaga raised both his hands, and the heavens and earth changed color.
A grand formation filled with golden runes rose beneath Zhang Wei's feet. Countless high walls ascended, moving in fantastical trajectories.
"Wheel Seal!"
Legend has it that this was the gesture used by the first Buddha of the ten thousand Buddhas when he preached the Dharma. The index finger and thumb of both hands touch, the other three fingers slightly bent, held at the chest.
When Shaga formed the mudra, he could achieve extreme mental focus and enhance the energy of his Gourmet Cells, embodying the power of the Food Demon.
At this moment, Shaga's power had climbed multiple times, nearing Zhang Wei's level!
Frenzied Blood...
Palm-sized Buddha Kingdom...
Asura Form...
Divine Eye...
And finally, the Wheel Seal, propelling Shaga to a height he never should have reached!
"Ultimate Profundity · Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel!"
And according to all known intelligence, this ultimate profundity was the technique used to suppress the savage beast Warwick back then!
Heaven and earth transformed into a grand formation, tightly binding Zhang Wei within.
He was rendered immobile!
On each rising wall, the images of nine Buddhas – one main and eight subsidiary – were depicted, each wall different.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice the walls had front and back. The reverse side showed the images of nine demons, corresponding to the two realms.
Shaga, from on high, declared, "The Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel is the manifestation of cosmic truth, approaching a perfect world harmony. Within the Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel, one cannot move, cannot defend, cannot attack..."
"In other words, once I unleash the Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel, there is no possibility of failure."
Nonsense!
Such a ultimate move exists in this world?
Zhang Wei didn't believe it at all. All techniques had limitations and required sufficient power to support them. The more perfect and feature-rich it was, the more colossal energy it demanded.
Sometimes, complicated functions were less reliable than a single punch!
Zhang Wei tried to move with all his might, but his body truly refused to obey!
Zhang Wei's heart sank. "How could such a fantastical technique be achieved!"
"There must be a reason I haven't considered!"
Shaga raised a hand and said to Zhang Wei, "Next, I will strip you of your five senses. When you lose form, sound, smell, taste, and touch, you will completely lose your perception of the world. Coupled with the binding effect of the Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel, you will become a walking corpse!"
"And in the Palm-sized Buddha Kingdom, losing the five senses... means you will transcend the boundary between reality and illusion, forever sinking into this place!"
"First, vision!"
Darkness!
Absolute darkness!
A darkness where all shapes and colors were lost, where perception was impossible!
As Zhang Wei was about to say something, Shaga continued, "Smell..."
"Taste..."
Zhang Wei acutely felt that he had lost some very important sense, and the entire world no longer felt real!
"Hearing... cough cough..."
"Pfft~~~"
Shaga coughed out a mouthful of blood!
The skill activation failed!
Zhang Wei could clearly hear the sound of pain.
This move... must consume a great deal of energy, right?
The singer had said that Shaga came here after enhancing himself by consuming his life force, which was why he dared to appear before him.
"Is it a lack of power..."
"Combined with the previous series of amplification techniques... if the gap between us is too large, this move is ineffective!"
Shaga spoke with difficulty, "A small hiccup just occurred, but it doesn't matter, we can still continue."
"Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel... deprivation of hearing..."
Too late!
You won't have another chance!
Zhang Wei shouted, "Shaga, the performance is over!"
Art of Wind Control!
Art of Thunder Control!
Wind and thunder raged!
Even with the loss of vision, taste, and smell, it did not affect Zhang Wei's performance!
After consuming the Formless, Zhang Wei had developed new sensory organs... and after closing his eyes, these sensory organs became even more acute!
A sixth sense...
Shaga spat out blood again. "How could this be? You're clearly within the Heavenly Dance Treasure Wheel, yet you can still use skills..."
Zhang Wei said, "All skills are based on power. The more complex they are, the greater the consumption."
"To suppress me with such a near-perfect skill, you need to absolutely suppress me in terms of power!"
"Clearly, you don't have that capability!"
