The silent battle continued, making many onlookers very dissatisfied.
They had been standing there for hours without moving. How was this a duel? It was more like a punishment than a duel.
Doubts of a rigged match had already begun to spread. Some people already suspected that Origin Realm King and Death of the Underworld came from the same faction. They were stalling for time in order to directly obtain first place.
In fact, many people in the six families had such suspicions.
Zhou Wen also felt that something was amiss. Although Death of the Underworld might not belong to the same faction as Origin Realm King, if they continued wasting time like this, first place would definitely be produced by one of them once the time was up.
All the factions that still had hopes of getting first place were paying attention to the situation of this battle. At the same time, they were secretly scouting for information.
Although they didn't know who Origin Realm King belonged to, Death of the Underworld was undoubtedly from the Family Clan of Gods. Therefore, all sorts of probing and pressure on the Family Clan of Gods continued.
"Old Frank, if you can't do it, quickly admit defeat. Don't let that Origin Realm King benefit from it later," Legg Capet said with a smile on the video call with Frank of the Family Clan of Gods.
Frank said indifferently, "Don't worry about it."
Legg continued, "Old Frank, if you have 100% confidence in defeating Origin Realm King, it doesn't matter if you wait until the end. But if you aren't 100% confident, why not leave a chance? "
Frank naturally understood what Legg meant. He was also very conflicted.
He originally wanted to drag things out until the end before letting Death of the Underworld defeat Origin Realm King. He shared Zhou Wen's guess. He believed that Origin Realm King was an extremely tiny Companion Beast.
As long as Death of the Underworld opened the Underworld and pulled the tiny Companion Beast into the Underworld, it would no longer be able to hide. When that happened, it wouldn't be difficult to kill it.
However, Origin Realm King was also stalling for time. This made Frank somewhat worried.
The abilities of Death of the Underworld were already known by many people. Origin Realm King's master definitely knew a little, but he still chose to hold back. This made Borl suspect that Origin Realm King had the ability to defeat Death of the Underworld. However, it could also be a psychological battle.
After hanging up, Frank was thinking about what to do next when Feya said, "Father, if you aren't completely confident of winning, why don't we do as Legg said and leave a chance in the end? We can still grasp the opportunity in our hands."
"Tell me about it," Borl said, looking at Feya.
Fei Ya said, "Since we can't be sure if Death of the Underworld can defeat Origin Realm King, why don't we complete the battle before the final time limit? It's naturally best if we can win. If we can't, we'll find an opportunity to forfeit. When the time comes, our Companion Beasts can challenge first. It's equivalent to having an additional chance."
"I'm just afraid that this opportunity will be snatched away by someone else," Bohr muttered.
"There can only be one challenger. It all depends on who can challenge faster. We can decide when the Death God of the Underworld surrenders, so we can challenge him at the same time. How can anyone be faster than us?" Feya said.
"That's right. Let's do it that way. Prepare your Companion Beasts. If Death of the Underworld fails, you will be the one to complete the final battle," Shockwave said after some thought.
Because there was no battle happening in the fighting ring, many of the spectators had already lost their patience after waiting for several hours. Many people chose to go back to work or do other things, planning to wait until the countdown ended before coming back to see the results.
Zhou Wen watched as time ticked by. Neither side had any intention of taking action. From the looks of it, they wanted to drag it out until the countdown ended. He knew that there was probably no hope of vying for first place.
However, Zhou Wen still held onto a glimmer of hope as he rushed to the town in Funiu Mountain. He wanted to wait for the countdown to end. If there was still a chance, he could take another gamble.
In fact, there were many people with the same thoughts as Zhou Wen. Many people from the large families were waiting in front of the cube. Once the battle ended or one side forfeited, they would immediately issue a challenge. Regardless of whether they could win in the end, it was better than having no chance at all.
Time slowly passed. When there were only two hours left to the countdown, more and more people returned to the cube. Most of them wanted to return to see the outcome.
However, Death of the Underworld and Origin Realm King remained motionless. One couldn't be seen, and the other didn't move at all.
An hour and a half … An hour and fifteen minutes … An hour and ten minutes …
Suddenly, Death of the Underworld, who had been silent all this while, finally moved. Its cloak spread out, and the strange Underworld domain was about to devour the entire arena.
This was identical to when it fought Primordial Sword Immortal back then. However, Origin Realm King wasn't Primordial Sword Immortal. If it were to fall into it, it would be a problem if it could storm out.
Everyone's minds jolted. Death of the Underworld's sudden attack meant that the two Companion Beasts didn't come from the same faction. They still had to decide the victor.
Although there was less than an hour and ten minutes left, time meant a chance.
The only thing they were afraid of was that there was too little time left. If one side was defeated, there was less than an hour left. Then, even if they chose to challenge, the other party would have an hour to prepare to accept the challenge. If they didn't accept the challenge, the countdown would end.
"Please decide the winner within an hour!" Many people were praying.
But no one had expected that the outcome would be decided much faster than they had imagined.
Just as the Death God of the Underworld activated the Underworld Domain, a strange scene suddenly occurred.
Inside Death of the Underworld's grayish-smoke-like spirit body, a flower suddenly grew out of its head. The flower was as beautiful as snow, and there was lightning swirling on it like an electric flower.
The flower rapidly grew. Almost in an instant, it went from a bud to a blooming state. As the flower bloomed, Death of the Underworld's spirit body seemed to be pulled by some force as it quickly flowed into the flower's body, as though it had been devoured by the flower.
Before the Underworld domain completely opened, half of Death of the Underworld's body had been sucked into the flower.
"No good!" Frank was alarmed. He hurriedly wanted to give up and admit defeat, but it was already too late.
The remaining half of Death of the Underworld's body was absorbed by the flower in the blink of an eye. As for the flower, it bloomed and shimmered with a strange electric light. Then, it quickly withered and vanished as though nothing had happened.
Everyone was stunned. No one dared to believe that the almost invincible Death of the Underworld had died just like that. Old Frank's expression was ashen. Feya, who was about to challenge, was also stunned.
Death of the Underworld had been instantly killed. It was just too shocking, making him hesitate. He was afraid that his Companion Beasts would suffer the same outcome if they entered.
It wasn't just Feya. Everyone who was preparing to challenge felt a moment of hesitation. The death of Death of the Underworld was just too shocking.
Origin Realm King … is too powerful … The people watching the battle also had such thoughts.
