Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 487: Limitations Of Her Laws

'Uncle Jonas was able to break free from the binding I cast on his cultivation but the other commands I gave worked on him without encountering much resistance.' Clara thought as she contemplated on the intricacies of her newly comprehended laws.'Doesn't this mean that as long as I don't go overboard with my commands, it will work against the target as long as their cultivation base doesn't differ much from mine?' She derived a conjecture from the battle was quickly able to comprehend the limitations of her newly comprehended laws. But even before that, she had vaguely detected the limitations of the law she had used even before the battle started. It would be better to say that she had slightly discerned it when she had comprehended the laws.That's why she had used the word "here" and pointed at the location so as to limit the range of the command, making the law she cast deal effectively on the target.When she cast a range, it applied to almost all targets inside the range.That's why the Ice Phoenix Lance Descent hadn't also stopped descending till it reached the range where she cast a command, stopping in mid-air as the shards floated.However, the more commands she cast on Jonas, the more she felt that he would be able to easily break away from it if given enough time.That's why she had not completely restricted his movements or sealed his upward movements.She left a leeway in one direction and she vaguely understood that it left a profound binding on her Uncle Jonas that left him unable to break the restriction she cast on his movements easily.If she had cast a complete movement restriction on Jonas, she felt that it would just be like trying to seal his cultivation, which would end in failure with him being able to easily break away from it.From this short exchange, Clara managed to verify her conjectures and concluded some keywords to follow for when using her newly comprehended laws.'Limitations!' The limited number of commands that she could cast on a person or a group of people which she still hadn't found, and besides, this law seems to take away most of her energy regardless of the severity of the command.

'Range!'Pointing at a location so as to fix the range in which the command she uttered would remain effective, even for a longer period of time unless she dispelled it. The range also included opponents if she didn't specifically mention them.As for exclusion, she would have to try and verify her laws when battling with two or more opponents.'Effectiveness!'The more overbearing the command, the more likely it is to fail. The more lenient the command, the more likely it is to succeed. However, it also depended on her own cultivation and comprehension of the laws.Nevertheless, Clara instantly found a loophole in the 'effectiveness' part of the command.Which is...'Condition!'She had commanded her Uncle Jonas with "Staring at me is prohibited" which then instantly harmed him and resulted in his eyes bleeding.Jonas had filled the requirement of staring at her, hence the reaction that the command had upon him had been pretty instant as well as heavy, bleeding his eyes which he could not break away from unless he had looked away!From this Clara was able to indefinitely garner that with conditions imposed, the effectiveness of the command would greatly increase!*Clang!~**Clang!~*Clara looked at her Uncle Jonas heave heavy breaths as he turned to stare at her. The ice lances were all destroyed, and countless shards were scattered below him in the skies.Icy vapor spread around the area they were floating... Only a freezing atmosphere was left in the air which could instantly freeze Third Stage Cultivators to death. Follow current on novel-online.com

Jonas kept staring at his niece with disbelief while taking heavy breaths. The Ice Pheonix Lance Descent took him almost 50 seconds to destroy but that left him reeling for breath!For heaven's sake! He was a Mid-Level Law Seed Stage Cultivator! He had just recently broken through and had felt immensely excited that he had managed to catch up to his twin brother but who would've thought that Viktor would also have a breakthrough, reaching the High-Level Law Seed Stage.This initially annoyed him, however...His niece was just a Low-Level Law Seed Stage Cultivator yet she had him on her palms, making him dodge and flail around like a monkey!Shouldn't it be the other way around!? Even her Ice Laws were slightly stronger than his Wind Laws! Combined with the mysterious law which she used, she looked like she was having fun instead of truly battling!This irked him to no end! Nevertheless, he calmed down in a few seconds, 'As expected of a person who can clear the trials of an Immortal Inheritance...'He understood that he had greatly underestimated his niece's prowess.With a wave of his hand, the freezing atmosphere was sent flying in another direction as it dispersed while the shards below all evaporated."Why didn't you attack me just now?"Clara looked at Jonas who had an unresigned expression on his face. Indeed, she had not continued her attacks and with the thousands of ice lances occupying the opponent's concentration, she knew that she had already won the battle by that time.All she had to do was launch a few techniques from his flank and she would've won.Jonas knew this point as well, hence the reason for his indignation.But Clara didn't do so...

"This is a friendly duel, right?" She spoke without a smile on her face.Jonas became stunned.He scrutinized her expression and was not able to garner much from that indifferent face but was able to hear from her tone that she was not making fun of him or his skills but was really implying that this is a friendly duel.It was not like he could not understand her meaning, that she had no need to go overboard with this battle.Indeed, repeatedly barraging him with techniques can be considered overboard, especially when a person considered that she had the advantage to make him into a skewered human meat.Jonas felt his loss nearing him at that moment too when he was forced into a corner.With his greatest techniques, his illusions sealed in this area, he was unable to display much prowess with just his wind techniques.To tell the truth, he had not even comprehended Illusion Laws to an extent, only comprehending it till the border of the law intent level but not reaching it, otherwise, he felt that his illusions would've not been easily restricted!His loss had been quite decided right then and there but his opponent chose not to attack at that moment but instead decided to wait for him to his confusion.Of course, he could've gone all out and escaped, preventing her from defeating him, however, for that, he would have to escape after breaking the movement restrictions cast on him.And if he escaped then, it would be a loss all the same because this was none other than a duel with a time limit, not a life and death battle. Honestly, he didn't know what to feel anymore...Truthfully, his face would've contorted from shame and embarrassment by being treated like this but he only felt sincere implications in her tone.Besides, he was the one who had initially emphasized that this battle is a 'friendly battle'.If it were any other opponent, he would've gone crazy from humiliation and launched a barrage of attacks with fury!Jonas let out a deep sigh and flicked his long hair. "I have lost!"
