Abyss Island.
Above the Fallen Abyss, a fierce battle raged as Water Ghost and Dao Qiongcang vied for the demi-saint title held by Rao Yaoyao.
Everyone could see that Water Ghost was strong, but Dao Qiongcang was not to be underestimated.
Even though Hallmaster Dao had only one famous battle in his lifetime, it was on the stage of the Ten High Nobles.
Apart from that, there were hardly any records of him achieving any significant victories on the battlefield.
But who would dare to underestimate the leader of the Holy Divine Palace?
They were all geniuses...
Possessing extraordinary combat strength...
All in prime condition without any apparent weaknesses...
In such a situation, the disparity between the Higher Void and the demi-saint was glaringly evident.
“Water Ghost is in danger!”
Xu Xiaoshou had emerged from behind the horns of the Demonic Emperor Black Dragon. Even he could tell that Water Ghost was struggling.
Water-type Upanishad against Celestial Scroll...
Sea God’s Trident against Divine Sinan...
Aside from the newly acquired Original Sealing Spear that he had not yet mastered, could Water Ghost, no matter his trump cards, truly overpower Dao Qiongcang of the Ten High Nobles?
Moreover, Dao Qiongcang was known for being enigmatic and unpredictable. Would he not have more tricks up his sleeve? Would he enter the Arena without being fully prepared?
Within the battle. The debut release of this chapter happened at N0v3l_B1n.
The fight for the demi-saint title of Rao Yaoyao was momentarily halted by Dao Qiongcang’s two strikes of “Great Stripping Technique,” which subdued Water Ghost as they exchanged words.
Everyone found themselves caught in Dao Qiongcang’s questioning of the current situation, and even Water Ghost appeared bewildered after being thrown into the air.
“While the Saint Servant conducted the operation of unsealing the Inner Island on Abyss Island, they still have other plans on the Shengshen Continent. What do they aim to do in Hallmaster Dao’s absence?”
“Indeed, the ghost beasts had crept forth before the barriers between Inner Island and Outer Island were nearly breached.”
“But since Dao Qiongcang entered the battle, the anomalies on Inner Island have completely disappeared. Not even a phantom of a ghost beast can be seen...”
Xu Xiaoshou realized with a sense of delayed insight, feeling as though his thoughts were influenced by the power of guidance.
He contemplated whether Dao Qiongcang’s words referred not to one aspect but both scenarios.
“Does he need my help?”
Watching the Water Ghost being pushed into a defensive position, Xu Xiaoshou felt that it was once again his moment to take action.
But just as he thought of intervening, the momentarily slowing battlefield in the Arena erupted once more.
“Whoosh!”
Water Ghost had paused for a mere moment.
After realizing he could not take the demi-saint title from Rao Yaoyao, he retreated decisively, brandishing his Sea God’s Trident, causing countless ink-black waterspouts to surge into the sky.
“Boom, boom, boom, boom!”
From all directions of Abyss Island, countless waterspouts rose to the sky like towering pillars.
All the black waterspouts exploded in an instant, transforming into numerous Water Ghosts, plummeting toward various locations on Abyss Island, not limited to the nine extreme grounds, in various peculiar and bizarre postures.
“What is he trying to do?”
Everyone wondered simultaneously, but the answer quickly dawned on them.
To fight Dao Qiongcang, the Water Ghost needed to attain sanctification.
Thus, this was a prelude to the sanctification!
Sure enough, every Water Ghost clone scattered across Abyss Island simultaneously executed the same action.
Each took out a demi-saint title and squeezed out a drop of blood, attempting to fuse with it.
“How do we distinguish the real Water Ghost among so many?”
All the Water Ghosts detected by Xu Xiaoshou within his “Perception” range were fake.
