Author's Note; 

Dao Release = This is when one directly uses the Dao as a Technique...

Dao Art = This is when one channels their Dao into a normal martial art or battle technique

[Did you manage to figure it out?] Min Hong finally interrupted their conversation as both his eyes were now closed shut;

[*Sighs* These three techniques are overpowered and so is the difficulty in comprehending it…]

[But even if I did figure it out, you won't be able to use it, your body can't handle using Essence Level Daos yet and both your eyes are already shut from overuse…]

Little Fei gave a frustrated sigh before replying Min Hong;

[It's fine, I just wanted to know that's all…] Min Hong responded as he floated mid-air;

[Are you sure you would be able to finish this battle with that ability?] Daniel asked;

[I believe so… I never knew his defense would be this tough, furthermore, he had wasted two of my moves with that shield…]

Utter frustration was apparent in Min Hong's tone as he watched the Hybrid Demon climbed out of the pit it had crashed into;

At this point, both his eyes were shut, but the 'Clairvoyance' divine ability was still active and had merged with his domain, which meant Min Hong could still sense all typed of energies, smell, sound within a 15 mile radius whilst using the feedback to create a clear mental map of his environment as well as everything within it…

[I initially wanted to end this before the tenth move so I can get the time and move bonus from the mission, but looking at how this despicable monster is still standing after taking a point blank hit from my planetary annihilation, I don't think that would be possible anymore…]

[Well, how about you try the other planetary technique then?] Daniel suggested;

[No way! I have done the calculation, and not only will he be drained of every single shred of power, he might also suffer some backlash and internal injuries that could have him bedridden for weeks!]

[He is not to use that technique unless it is a life and death situation, and this is not one!]

[At worst we will fail the mission and lose a technique, it is better than being in such a state…]

[What if another Yao Demon pops out of nowhere immediately after unh!?] Little Fei for the first lost it as he verbally lashed out at Daniel;

[Oi, it's alright… I won't use it unless it is absolutely necessary…] Min Hong chipped in trying to defuse the situation before it escalated…

He knew why Daniel had suggested that he used that technique;

To him, the reward outweighs the cost, because not only would that end this battle instantly, it would also mean he had passed the mission with maximum bonus, at the risk of him being bedridden for weeks at worst or a month if lucky…

But Little Fei is always much more concerned about his wellbeing rather than rewards or success, and when one logically thought about it, losing a single ability from Min Hong's arsenal of multiple ability is still an acceptable punishment, as long as he is safe…

One was recklessly valiant and mildly caring, the other was perfectly logical and extremely caring; they were two polar opposites with him being the link that held them together, thus, he understood their point of views and they were both right…

But the result of this battle lies in the fact that unless Min Hong knew that the Hybrid Demon was no longer hiding any trump card like an insane defensive treasure that can block that technique of his, or an offensive treasure that could obliterate him, he would also not show his final trump card…

It is a probing and waiting battle at this point and Min Hong was running out of time, but unknowingly and luckily for him, it was the same case for the Hybrid Demon as well, as the duo kept looking at each other, waiting for the other to reveal their final trump card first before they counterattack…

They were both injured, and though Min Hong barely took any hit from the Hybrid Demon, but that black lightning explosion did just as much damage as all his own damage combined;

After all, that was an attack from a 1 Star Immortal Stage expert, whilst it was still being suppressed by the True Spirit effects of their Plane of Existence, whilst his own attack were only at the Peak of Nirvana Stage after using every possible boost he could use…

Both of Min Hong's eyes were shut and bleeding and it almost looked like he was crying blood whilst he was also suffering from immense internal damage that the dragon tattoos had barely been able to heal just 10 percent of despite working for so long…

The Hybrid Demon on the other hand had lost three of its horns, as well as an extremely high tier defensive treasure, whilst suffering significant internal damage as well, and not to talk of its mangled jaws which was barely clinging to one another due to Min Hong's attack earlier…

'They are speaking of an ultimate technique that this kid has, I really want to see it!'

Min Hong's Bloodline Ancestor thought to himself with utter excitement as he waited for the grand finale…

'Why is he not attacking?' The Hybrid Demon thought to itself;

'If his highness has to come here by himself to retrieve the package, then I would rather just let this guy end my life, otherwise, I would suffer a fate far worse than death...'

'He should show up at any minute now, I can't wait any longer…' It added;

The two of them kept gazing at one another and the Hybrid Demon knew Min Hong could obviously still see him with his eyes close, thus he relaxed its body as Min Hong's body tensed up;

[Here it comes!]

All of a sudden, the Hybrid Demon began to make several hand seal motion;

[It's its final attack!] Daniel warned as Min Hong's forehead split open;

[So, you are going to use it after what you have said!?] Little Fei blurted in disappointment;

[I said unless it is necessary, and this looks very necessary!]

Min Hong replied as he saw the Demon finally complete its hand seal gestures and bellow;

[Demon Art; Domain Style – Self Destruct!]

"Eh!?"

"Unh!?"

"Naani!?"

The Min Hong trio including the Bloodline Ancestor all blurted in shock...
