Echoes drifted across the square. Xiao Yan beckoned with his hand, and the Heavy Xuan Ruler that was stuck into the ground in the distance flew over and landed in his hand. This time, Xiao Yan kept it in his Storage Ring.
Immediately after, his body shook slightly as he immediately activated the Golden Elephant Art. Force gathered on the surface of his body as if it had substance, transforming into a shield that protected Xiao Yan within.
The perfect combination of the Golden Elephant Art and the Dragon Phoenix Ancient Armor would raise Xiao Yan's defense to a whole new level. Moreover, this was only a display of Xiao Yan's physical defense.
Shui Miao's expression changed once again when he saw the golden barrier that had formed on the surface of Xiao Yan's body. His gaze carefully swept over the barrier. After some probing, he was shocked to discover that the barrier was not Dou Qi or Genesis Qi. Instead, it was agglomerated from pure energy!
"This... the materialization of power... how is this possible? There is still someone in the world who can materialize physical power!"
The scene in front of him was really too shocking. It was very difficult to imagine that Xiao Yan in front of him not only had a great cultivation, but he had also advanced his Great Dao Strength and physical strength to such an extent. This could really be called shocking. Even in his own clan, no one had been able to reach such a level since ancient times!
Unfortunately, if Shui Miao knew that Xiao Yan was a rank 4 alchemist, it was unknown what kind of expression he would have on his face.
He had always been a proud son of heaven in everyone's eyes. No matter where he went, he would always be worshipped and respected. However, it wasn't until he saw Xiao Yan that he understood what it meant to say that there was always someone better than you. Compared to the latter, he was indeed much worse...
However, this couldn't make him admit defeat.
Before the outcome was clear, one couldn't jump to conclusions. Before the outcome was clear, how could one easily judge who would win or lose?
Although Xiao Yan was strong, there was still a gap between their cultivation levels. If they went all out, it wasn't certain who would win.
"Ha!"
Retracting his gaze, Shui Miao didn't hesitate for a moment. As the golden light gathered around Xiao Yan's body, he abruptly dashed forward and swung the spear in his hand. The sharp tip of the spear viciously slashed towards Xiao Yan's throat.
Wherever the body of the spear passed, the invisible void was immediately covered with a layer of water. The entire spear was like a blue wind banner waving in the air, but its incomparably fast speed and fierce aura still caused people to not dare to underestimate it.
The spear arrived in front of Xiao Yan in the blink of an eye. The sharp tip of the spear streaked across the void and directly aimed at Xiao Yan's throat.
Facing this spear that was condensed from the power of the Great Way, Xiao Yan didn't dare to be careless. To be honest, this was his first time fighting against the power of the Great Way. After seeing the power of the ten steel needles in his hand, Xiao Yan had a deeper understanding of the power of the Great Way. At this moment, how could he dare to underestimate the power of the Great Way?
Just as the long spear was swiftly approaching his throat, Xiao Yan swiftly raised his arms and placed them vertically in front of him. His left and right arms crossed each other and destroyed the long spear that had already appeared in front of his throat.
The powerful force was like a hot knife through butter. The spear only lasted for a moment before it suddenly exploded into water droplets and scattered in all directions.
However, before Xiao Yan could come back to his senses, the spear that had just exploded a moment ago was quickly reformed by the water droplets that spread up from behind. In the blink of an eye, it had once again returned to its original state. Its imposing manner wasn't inferior to before. The sharp tip of the spear ruthlessly streaked across Xiao Yan's throat, but it brought about a crisp sound that sounded like the collision of gold and iron.
The sharp tip of the spear pressed against Xiao Yan's throat, and even his breathing felt a little sluggish. Although the Golden Elephant Tactic and Dragon Phoenix Ancient Armor isolated him, Xiao Yan still felt a strong sense of threat. The expression in his eyes changed immediately, and he quickly destroyed the spear in front of him again. At the same time, his figure hurriedly retreated.
It was only when he was 100 feet away that Xiao Yan saw clearly that the spear that he had destroyed a moment ago had actually returned to its original state in the blink of an eye under the rapid replenishment of the water droplets.
"What a strange Great Dao of Water!"
Xiao Yan quietly exclaimed in his heart. Only then did he bitterly rub his neck. It was all thanks to the protection of the Dragon Phoenix Ancient Armor and the Golden Elephant Skill. Otherwise, it was likely that he would have turned into a corpse if he had been caught off guard.
"The power of the Great Dao far surpasses battle qi and Genesis Qi in terms of energy replenishment and operation. Therefore, weapons formed by the Great Dao recover at an extremely fast speed. It's impossible to destroy my Whale Plunderer Spear with brute force alone."
Shui Miao generously explained when he saw the look of surprise on Xiao Yan's face. If it was someone who had some understanding of the power of the Great Dao, they would never be stupid enough to destroy a weapon with brute force. From this point alone, he could tell that Xiao Yan didn't have a deep understanding of the power of the Great Dao.
"Oh, thank you for your guidance!"
Xiao Yan smiled. It was a good idea to make friends in battle.
However, Shui Miao didn't seem to think so.
"I'm telling you because I don't want to take advantage of you, but that's not a reason for me to give in to you!"
With a cold snort, Shui Miao's figure flashed, and he appeared in front of Xiao Yan in the blink of an eye. The spear in his hand suddenly swung out, aiming straight for Xiao Yan's head.
With Xiao Yan's entire body protected by a protective shield, only by attacking his vital points would he have a greater chance of winning.
However, as the saying goes, a fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. After what happened just now, Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't let the spear in the guy's hand touch him so easily again.
When the spear swept over again, Xiao Yan's footwork changed, and he instantly performed the Heaven Extinction Step. His body swayed from side to side, flashing and jumping like a shadow. No matter how fast Shui Miao's Whale Plunderer Spear was, it still couldn't touch Xiao Yan's body.
When the spear penetrated Xiao Yan's body, Shui Miao came back to his senses repeatedly. Every time he stabbed, it was just an afterimage left by Xiao Yan's body. Even if there were occasional collisions, they were all resolved by Xiao Yan's Mysterious Fire. This led to a stalemate between the two sides after dozens of collisions.
In the face of Xiao Yan's strange speed, even with the power of the Great Dao of Water, Shui Miao still couldn't do anything. Every time he saw that his attack was about to land on Xiao Yan, the latter's body suddenly slipped away like a loach. No matter how fierce his attack was, it was useless in the end.
"Damn it, do you only know how to dodge?"
In addition to feeling helpless, Shui Miao's heart was also filled with anger. The person in front of him was obviously holding back, but he still didn't show it. This made him a little annoyed.
"Ha! Let's see how you dodge this time! "
"Whale Plunderer Spear, Angry Sea Whale Serpent!"
With a low shout, Shui Miao's body, which was originally rushing forward, suddenly stopped in the void. His body came to a standstill, and the long spear in his hand suddenly swung. Suddenly, the water rippled, and the battle circle where the two were was immediately filled with surging waves. In the deep water, a huge sea beast could be vaguely seen, surrounding Xiao Yan in heavy waves.
"Great Dao of Water, Water Moon Mirror Flower!"
Soon after, another cry sounded. The eight water curtains that were suspended behind Shui Miao immediately shot out. They transformed into numerous rays of light that entered the wave. Moreover, they swiftly expanded, transforming into eight enormous water curtains that stood in front of the sea beast. That sea beast also passed through them head-on. After which, it split into two, until it split into nine enormous sea beasts that roamed within the narrow space and surrounded Xiao Yan.
"Let's see how you dodge my attack!"
"Furious Sea Whale Dragon, kill!"
With a fierce shout, the nine giant sea beasts under the waves suddenly twisted their huge bodies, driving the entire water area, and rushed fiercely toward Xiao Yan without any blind spots!
It was impossible to dodge such an attack!
At this moment, all the students outside the arena widened their eyes as they stared fixedly at the shocking scene in the arena. Their faces were filled with fanaticism. Such a vast battle scene was extremely rare to see on a normal day. Now that they had seen it, it could be said to be extremely shocking!
Especially the nine giant sea beasts in the deep water, even some of the teachers outside the field could not help but be slightly shocked when they saw them. Facing the giant sea beasts, even they felt a faint pressure.
Shui Miao's attack could not be said to be weak!
The shocking waves blocked all of Xiao Yan's escape routes, and the nine giant sea beasts rushed toward Xiao Yan from all directions. The waves rolled and the giant sea beasts pounced wildly, but Xiao Yan's face was still calm.
With a thought, nine pitch-black curtains suddenly condensed around him, surrounding Xiao Yan entirely. Then, a huge amount of Soul Power gushed out from between his eyebrows …
"Humph, do you want to use the power of the Great Path to forcefully resist it? It's not that easy!"
Shui Miao snorted coldly when he saw this scene. Immediately after, the nine giant sea beasts bombarded the nine pitch-black curtains in front of everyone's eyes.
However, there was no earth-shattering explosion as expected. The nine-headed sea beast and the endless waves collided with the Great Way of the Void. It was as if they had plunged headfirst into the endless void, constantly surging into it. Even a small portion of the nine-headed sea beast was swallowed up by the Great Way of the Void.
"This … damn it!"
Shui Miao had underestimated the power of the Great Path of the Void. In the face of the endless void, Shui Miao's attack was like a turbulent river being led into a new river channel. Most of the power was diverted. In the end, the enormous power contained in the nine giant sea beasts barely destroyed the nine curtains.
The nine curtains slowly dissipated, and the black-robed Xiao Yan once again appeared in Shui Miao's sight.
Swoosh!
This time, Shui Miao did not hesitate at all. He held the spear and pierced through the void. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Xiao Yan.
He did not expect that Xiao Yan would be able to easily neutralize the fighting skill that he performed by combining the power of the Great Path. Now, he could not give his opponent any chance. He would not allow his opponent to defeat him without even using his trump card!
The long spear violently pierced toward Xiao Yan's head. However, it was easily dodged by Xiao Yan. The two figures also brushed past each other due to this …
"Whale Reaping Spear, Swallow Return!"
However, at this moment, when the two of them brushed past each other, Shui Miao suddenly flipped the spear so that the tip of the spear was at the back and the handle was at the front. At the same time, he let go of the spear in his hand, bent his body backward, and kicked the handle of the spear heavily.
Suddenly, the spear that had brushed past Xiao Yan shot towards Xiao Yan's back again in the blink of an eye. It was approaching Xiao Yan's back at a rapid speed …
In the next moment, there was a piercing sound. Under everyone's gaze, the tip of the spear pierced through Xiao Yan's back and chest!
"Hua!"
Instantly, the crowd outside the arena was in an uproar. Numerous shocked gazes fell on Xiao Yan whose chest had been pierced through. They never expected that even though Xiao Yan had the Great Path of the Void, he would still be defeated by Shui Miao in the end. From the beginning to the end, they did not see Xiao Yan use any powerful fighting skills!
It was not just these people. Even Shui Miao, who had recovered at this moment, was extremely shocked. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
Shui Miao's eyes focused on Xiao Yan, whose chest had been penetrated in one strike. He was actually a little dull for a moment. He did not dare to believe that the chest of Xiao Yan, whose defensive strength was so strong, would be penetrated by his attack at this moment. This caused him to feel disbelief!
However, at a certain moment, Shui Miao seemed to have suddenly noticed something …
There seemed to be something wrong with Xiao Yan's aura.
Xiao Yan, who should have been an advanced seven star Dou Di, was currently emitting an aura that was only an intermediate seven star Dou Di.
"This …"
Shui Miao's eyes hardened. He had a bad feeling in his heart.
However, at this moment, Xiao Yan slowly turned his head. A mocking smile appeared on his face. Immediately, his entire body became transparent at a speed visible to the naked eye. Within a few breaths' time, he had disappeared in front of Shui Miao's eyes.
"He disappeared!"
While feeling shocked in his heart, Shui Miao also clearly sensed a dangerous aura rapidly approaching from behind him. He could not care less. He withdrew his spear, turned around, and thrust it forward!
However, at the instant Shui Miao turned his head, a dangerous aura that caused his soul to feel a wave of horror had already appeared in front of his brows like a ghost.
In an instant, the spear in Shui Miao's hand that was supposed to thrust forward suddenly stopped. His entire body was fixed in place like a statue. Cold sweat swiftly surged out and covered his entire body.
A deep suffocating feeling was transmitted from deep within his soul. Shui Miao only felt that his entire body had nearly fallen into an endless abyss. If he had been a second slower, it was likely that he would have been instantly killed by that strength!
When Shui Miao focused his gaze, which was filled with shock, he saw a palm-long pitch-black steel needle floating between his eyebrows. It was this steel needle that had nearly sent him to the gates of hell.
However, when Shui Miao felt the special aura on this steel needle, endless shock immediately surged in his heart.
"This … Great Dao … Solidification!"
Endless shock instantly filled Shui Miao's heart. He had originally thought that he had clearly recognized the gap between him and Xiao Yan. However, the scene in front of him had overturned all of his judgments of Xiao Yan. The latter's excellence and strength had far exceeded his imagination!
Thinking until this point, Shui Miao finally let out a deep self-mocking sigh. He lowered his head and said with a bitter face.
"I have lost."
