In front of the encampment of the Fishing Sea Tower.
Ji Shaoqing looked around and said with a smile, "We can't fight here. How about we move to the World's Edge Stage?"
To be honest, he didn't want to fight here mainly because he didn't want Chen Zhitao to be in the limelight again.
While they were fighting for their lives here, Chen Zhitao had single-handedly controlled the battlefield, firmly suppressing the aftershocks of the battle. Although everyone knew that Chen Zhitao, who was in the Divine Descent Realm, was stronger than them, such a stark comparison made them pale in comparison.
Secondly, they could buy some time and let their master know about this. If they won, everyone would be happy. If they lost … they couldn't care less about their reputation.
He had agreed to Jiang Wang's life and death challenge for two reasons. Firstly, he had to accept the challenge for the sake of his reputation and face. Secondly, he wanted to step on Jiang Wang's reputation and raise his reputation. Naturally, the battle on the Tianya Stage would attract more attention.
Jiang Wang said, "Let's go to the World's Edge Stage."
He didn't have any objections. Zhu Biqiong was judged on the World's Edge Stage and spent the last of her life there. The World's Edge Stage started and ended there.
The news of the life-and-death duel between Jiang Wang and Ji Shaoqing quickly spread throughout the Isle of Wight and to the entire offshore archipelago.
One was the new number one on the Ocean Merit List, and the other was the famous Fishing Sea Tower of Tianjiao.
They were both young and had a bright future.
They were both cultivators with magical powers. One had three palaces, and the other had five.
Most importantly, one was from Qi, and the other was a cultivator from Fishing Sea Tower.
To some extent, this duel could be seen as a microcosm of the battle between Qi and Fishing Sea Tower for supremacy on the sea.
When it was made public, it gave this duel more meaning.
Countless eyes were focused on the World's Edge Stage.
On the World's Edge Stage, the two stood opposite each other.
All the spectators stayed outside the World's Edge Stage. They floated in the air, guarded the steps, or observed from afar with secret techniques. In short, they couldn't step on the World's Edge Stage.
Chung Geng Sheng had requested the Black Armored Warriors to leave. He was worried that there would be any factors that would affect the fairness of the duel. If there were any black-armored soldiers who were willing to risk universal condemnation and disregard everything to launch an ambush during the final battle, it would be too late to cut them into a thousand pieces afterwards.
In the territory of the Ocean Fishing Tower, they could only ask for fairness.
Chen Zhitao, the eldest senior brother of Fishing Sea Tower, and Jiang Wuyou, the palace master of Da Qi's Huaying Palace, were the witnesses of this duel.
They each inspected the battleground — Jiang Wuyou was the one who did the inspection. After that, they looked at each other and confirmed that the other party had no objections to the location of the duel.
Therefore, Chen Zhitao said, "Cultivation is to seek the truth. It is difficult to defy fate. Today, Ji Shaoqing and Jiang Wang have diverged from each other on the path of Dao, and have challenged each other to a duel. Chen Zhitao and all of you will bear witness to this. Victory or defeat is determined by oneself, and there is no resentment in life or death! "
No matter what the reason was in private, no matter how big the conflict was. At least for now, it was common knowledge that the human race should unite to resist the Sea Race. Neither Fishing Sea Tower nor Da Qi intended to put the conflict on the table.
Therefore, the name of this duel was "diverged from each other on the path of Dao" — the two had irreconcilable differences in their cultivation philosophies, so they agreed to a duel to prove who was right and who was wrong with life and death.
This was also the reason why Chen Zhitao and Jiang Wuyou were the witnesses. Their status was high enough, and it was not suitable for people of higher seniority to appear.
Jiang Wuyou continued, "This duel is not only about victory and defeat, but also about life and death. No one is allowed to interfere in this duel in any way. Otherwise, you will be an enemy of Fishing Sea Tower, and also of Da Qi! "
She nodded slightly at the two people on the Tianya Stage and said, "Please!"
Chen Zhitao, who was high in the sky, did the same at the same time.
The ancient etiquette of a duel to the death was very complicated, and they tried to be as concise as possible.
The reason why it was so formal was to make this duel more ceremonial and convincing.
Ji Shaoqing stood on the west side of the Tianya Stage, with his back to the Huai Island.
Jiang Wang stood on the east side of the Tianya Stage, with his back to the sea.
There was nothing between the two of them.
On the Tianya Stage, there was only each other.
In Ji Shaoqing's eyes, Jiang Wang saw mockery and pleasure. Perhaps it was a disguise, an emotion that was only faked to anger Jiang Wang.
But it was not important.
In Jiang Wang's eyes, Ji Shaoqing saw nothing.
The killing intent was hidden in the heart, and the sword intent was hidden in the scabbard.
After Jiang Wuyou and Chen Zhitao announced the start of the duel, both sides moved at the same time.
The Flame Sparrows rose in flocks, constantly chirping.
Jiang Wang started with the Eight Sounds of Burning the Sea, and the sea of fire and sound waves spread rapidly, covering the entire Tianya Stage in an instant.
And behind Ji Shaoqing, a new moon suddenly rose!
Jiang Wang went to Fishing Sea Tower's encampment to invite the duel at dawn, and it was still daytime.
But when the moon rose, at least in the sky above the Tianya Stage, it was already night time.
It was a bright crescent moon hanging high in the sky, cold and frosty. But no moonlight fell, as if the moonlight only existed in the moon. It also seemed that this crescent moon did not belong to this world.
But the moment it appeared, the sea of fire that was wreaking havoc on the Tianya Stage immediately decreased in intensity.
This was a terrifying suppression!
Divine ability, Crescent Moon!
One of its effects was to strengthen water elemental arts and suppress the other elemental energies.
It sounded ordinary, but it was actually very powerful.
This was because the extent of its suppression was very impressive. Under the influence of the Crescent Moon, an A-grade high-grade fire elemental Dao technique would at most have the power of a B-grade high-grade elemental Dao technique.
And the extent of its enhancement …
When the new moon rose, Ji Shaoqing raised his hand, and the roaring water elemental energy surged into the shape of a dragon.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, a water dragon immediately surged out.
The water dragon roared and controlled the raging waves, instantly extinguishing the sea of fire that was already on the verge of collapse.
The dragon roared and collided with the sound waves of the Eight Notes Burning Sea, engulfing it as well.
Although the Musical Assassination Technique was not suppressed by the Crescent Moon, the roaring flame sparrow was completely suppressed.
The moon hung high in the sky, and the waves roared. A thousand miles of frost, and endless cold autumn.
This was the A-grade mid-grade Dao technique, Water Dragon Roar!
It was known as "A thousand miles of clear autumn, water follows the sky, endless autumn."
It was a powerful area-of-effect Dao technique, and was one of the strongest Inner Palace Dao techniques in the Fishing Sea Tower's secret storehouse (A-grade mid-grade). In terms of power, it was almost comparable to an A-grade high-grade Dao technique.
But compared to the Eight Notes Burning Sea that Jiang Wang had created and mastered in advance, it was still slightly weaker.
But at this moment, when the Crescent Moon hung high in the sky, the Water Dragon Roar easily extinguished the Eight Notes Burning Sea. In an instant, the home ground changed!
The Tianya Stage was already a world of water. The sound waves of the sea of fire just now seemed to be an illusion.
Jiang Wang pressed out a ball of True Samadhi Fire with one hand and faced the dragon head of one of the water dragons, burning it from head to tail.
Then, he stepped in the air, crushed the Blue Cloud Mark, and landed behind the other water dragon, directly approaching Ji Shaoqing.
Ji Shaoqing had already watched the battle between Bao Song and Jiang Wang, so he had a certain understanding of Jiang Wang. This was the advantage before the battle.
Those who truly knew how to fight would never let go of any advantage.
Therefore, Ji Shaoqing directly skipped the probing stage and used his magical power in the first confrontation, forcing Jiang Wang to leave the probing stage and fight back with his magical power.
This was, of course, the correct way to fight. Jiang Wang only knew him from hearsay, and he had the advantage of home ground. Before Jiang Wang forced him out, he had already seen Jiang Wang's battle with his own eyes.
Although the battle had ended very quickly, a true expert would naturally be able to obtain the information he wanted.
On the other hand, Jiang Wang directly skipped the long-distance confrontation and chose to fight to the death in close quarters.
When he passed by the Water Dragon Roar, he threw a question to Ji Shaoqing — Haven't you already watched my battle? In a small space, life and death will be decided in an instant. Do you still dare to? I believe in your judgment!
