Chapter 704 Times have changed
The divine light came towards him, and Wen Rui's body was suspended in the air, with no way to avoid it.
If he could step on the ground at this moment, he could use his Hunyuan Shrinking Earth ability to teleport and dodge instantly, but just now a divine light from Kong Xuan flashed by, and a large area of seabed bedrock disappeared, leaving only a huge underground rock cavity.
The ground veins were all cut off by the divine light, and there was no place left for the earth-shrinking magic to shrink.
The light flashed past, and Kong Xuan raised the corner of his mouth confidently. Another youngster who overestimated his own abilities was captured. With his innate magical power, even a saint could not escape the brush.
However, when he checked the sealed space, Kong Xuan was stunned. There was no trace of Wen Rui inside.
The basic principle of the five-colored divine light brushing all things is actually a kind of space transfer. Everything that is illuminated by the divine light will be teleported into a different dimension.
In a sense, it is similar to Obito's Sharingan Kamui, but is far faster and has a wider range than Kamui.
The divine power has to wait for a period of time until the space is distorted before it can absorb the energy in a small area. The divine light only needs to shine and will immediately converge on whatever it shines on.
This alien space is completely controlled by Kong Xuan. Everything sealed in the space is in a state of time stagnation. Everything that is brushed into the space is equivalent to being imprisoned in a cage where time does not flow.
Therefore, the Five-Colored Divine Light can clear all spells and magic weapons. The spells and magic weapons that are cleared into space will not have any effect due to the stagnation of time.
The divine light can also be used to brush living creatures. The enemies brushed in cannot move and can be slaughtered by Kong Xuan.
The only time he failed was when he brushed Taoist Huai Ti into the space. It turned out that Taoist Huai Ti was too powerful and broke free from the shackles of time, releasing infinite power, breaking through the barrier of the alternate dimension and finally capturing Kong Xuan.
Even saints cannot resist the radiation of space-transferring light and will be swept into the space. How can a junior who has been deified by virtue of his merits possibly escape it?
When the light faded, Wen Rui was still standing in the void, and the scenery around him was distorted, as if seen through a lens.
The lens's distortion soon disappeared, and Wen Rui's figure became clearer. He breathed a sigh of relief, patting his chest as if he had survived a disaster and muttering, "Lucky, lucky, I was almost caught and hung up and beaten, but at least I didn't harm his family, so I didn't get beaten to death. It would be a huge loss of face for me."
"Impossible. Huai Ti defeated me by breaking the sealed space when I was not prepared. He couldn't even dodge my five-colored divine light!"
Kong Xuan was no longer calm at all. His handsome face was filled with shock, which was a hundred times more shocking than the last time he was subdued by Taoist Huai Ti.
He was defeated five hundred years ago. After all, his opponent was a saint of the Western religion, and there was a huge gap in the absolute power level.
Even if we lose, it is still an honorable defeat.
But this time, a mere minor god of merit, equivalent to an immortal in the celestial realm, was nothing more than a slightly larger ant in the eyes of ancient gods like Kong Xuan.
This is like using an aerial bomb to kill ants but not killing them. It is neither unscientific nor metaphysical.
How to avoid this five-colored divine light? The principle is actually not complicated. Since you will be hit if you are illuminated by it, you just need to avoid being illuminated.
But it is not that easy to avoid being illuminated by the five colors.
Wen Rui had experienced the golden light of the Hundred Eyes of the Hundred Eyes Demon Lord before, and had some experience in how to resist light-related magical powers. However, compared with the Five-Colored Divine Light, the Hundred Eyes Golden Light was still far inferior, and the knowledge of optical refraction could not be applied mechanically.
Whether it is reflection or refraction, changing the path of light requires a medium.
The five-colored divine light can be transferred through space along with the medium, so to describe this kind of magical attack, the word “shine” cannot be used, but “brush” should be used.
It was like washing away everything in the path of the light beam, transferring everything into the sealed space. In other words, the five-colored divine light would not reflect on a smooth surface, because the smooth surface would disappear when it touched the light wave.
It will not be deflected in the process of crossing the medium, because the medium in the path of the light beam will also disappear when it comes into contact with the divine light.
When the five-colored divine light was about to approach him, Wen Rui tried hard to think about how to deflect the light without refraction or reflection, and he actually thought of a way.
Gravitational lensing effect!
If there is a massive celestial body in the straight line from the observer to the light source, the observer will see one or more images formed due to the bending of light. This phenomenon is called gravitational lensing.
This phenomenon is caused by the distortion of space-time near a massive celestial body, which causes light to bend when passing near the massive celestial body.
The huge gravitational force can distort space. A light beam moving in a straight line in space will be deflected as space distorts.
In this way, a light beam can be refracted without any medium.
Coincidentally, there is indeed a super-strong gravity generator test machine in Wen Rui’s portable secret research base.
This device was originally developed to deal with the blue light gamma-ray burst power of the Moth Witch. That kind of super-strong energy jet can also destroy all matter in the irradiation path, break up molecular chains, and even break atomic bonds, turning everything into elementary particles.
Strong interaction materials cannot block blue light, and no medium can refract blue light. If Wen Rui does not develop a means of defense as soon as possible, he will be shot to death by the Moth Witch the next time he encounters her.
As a result, before he met the witch, he took it out and received Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light and carried out a practical verification.
"Birdman, you really underestimate the heroes of the world."
When he succeeds, he becomes arrogant. He proves that Kong Xuan's greatest reliance, the Five-Colored Divine Light, is ineffective against him. Wen Rui trembles all of a sudden. The face of the villain who succeeds is quite ugly.
"Do you really think that your broken magical power will always be invincible? The times are advancing, science is developing, and your magical power is already outdated. Compared with my latest technology, there is a generation gap!"
Kong Xuan had witnessed the technological level of the city under Wen Rui's rule. He thought he had given great respect to Wen Rui's ideas of "cutting fragments of the Heavenly Dao for one's own use", "technology is the primary productive force" and "technology is the primary combat power", but he did not expect that he still underestimated the speed of technological progress.
The legend that anyone below the Five-Colored Divine Light Saint is invincible has lasted for tens of thousands of years.
Since Kong Xuan awakened this magical power, he has only been defeated once in tens of thousands of years, and that was to a saint.
Five hundred years ago, Wen Rui was not even an immortal. He was just a mortal with poor talent but extremely cunning, known as the worst disciple of Jiejiao.
At that time, Kong Xuan, whether in terms of his cultivation of Taoism or his peerless supernatural powers, was definitely the number one immortal under the saints.
Only five hundred years have passed, and Wen Rui's cultivation level is not surprisingly still as bad. The level of deification through merit is the worst among all immortals, and it is an exceptional promotion.
To explain it in easy-to-understand terms, the immortals who normally ascend to heaven are the top scorers in the imperial examinations, the immortals who have been deified for their merits and are listed in the immortal class, and the ones who sold official positions in the street and used money and backdoors to sneak into officialdom.
As a result, the Five-Colored Divine Light magical power that was invincible among all the immortals was cracked by the so-called scientific technology developed by Wen Rui, who was at the bottom of the immortal cultivation contempt chain. Kong Xuan didn't even understand how he cracked it.
