Was Sage Monarch Winter lon’s defense no longer going to be able to hold on? Or was it his voice that was no longer able to bear it?
In this battle where one’s roar decided the victory, one’s voice was an extrely important weapon.
I really hope that this mode of battle would change to sothing else, several reporters thought to themselves.
Frankly, they couldn’t stand listening to the two Profound Sages roaring like this; their minds were slowly breaking down.
Perhaps even the heavens couldn’t stand this kind of battle wherein their strength entirely depended on their voices.
Senior lon Eater, who was roaring loudly, suddenly started coughing.
“Cough, cough, cough... what’s going on?” Senior lon Eater’s voice echoed.
At the sa ti, the golden shock wave covering the entire place quickly dissipated—Senior lon Eater had unexpectedly stopped his attack.
The duel location had already transford into a giant pit.
At the center of that giant pit were lon Eater and Winter lon.
Sage Monarch Winter lon was not in good shape right now. His ‘Iron Fortress’ was already full of cracks, and looked like it would crumble at any mont.
anwhile, Senior lon Eater was coughing violently—his state appeared to be even worse.
Having already reached such a realm, it was absolutely impossible for him to start coughing just because of ‘roaring too much’. Moreover, even if you were to take one step back and forget that, it was also impossible for soone at Senior lon Eater’s level to beco unable to control their attack just because of coughing.
Is there sothing wrong with Senior lon Eater? The reporters’ hearts moved as they looked anxiously towards Profound Sage lon Eater.
Profound Sage lon Eater must have definitely been affected by sothing that caused him to start coughing violently and beco unable to control his attacks.
In the middle of the giant dueling pit.
Sage Monarch lon Eater was still coughing, and looked extrely uncomfortable.
“Senior lon Eater, are you okay?” Sage Monarch Winter lon yelled—was it possible that Senior lon Eater was already wounded, yet still used a secret technique to co over and keep his promise?
Sage Monarch Winter lon’s heart felt restless.
“I... cough, cough, cough, strange... cough, cough, I’m fine, but...” Halfway through his words, Sage Monarch lon Eater suddenly tilted his head and assud a strange pose.
Then, he slowly fell backwards, and as he fell to the ground, he suddenly shouted, “Aaaah~”
It was a familiar male voice that rose and fell in tone, switching between the four Chinese tones.
After the scream, Sage Monarch lon Eater twitched a bit and ‘died’.
Sage Monarch Winter lon: “...”
All the reporters: “...”
This scene was familiar.
They rembered that not long ago, when Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had been ‘showing his divinity’, the virtuous empress above his head, who had been filled with dignity a mont ago, suddenly issued the sa scream, fell to the ground, and ‘died’.
Sage Monarch Winter lon and the journalists present imdiately figured out what had happened.
Senior lon Eater had used a ‘secret technique’ to borrow Hu Beidong’s light of virtue to ignore the limitations of space and directly teleport from Mount Hua to temporarily manifest here. However, Sage Monarch lon Eater ended up not borrowing Hu Beidong’s light of virtue.
So, whose light of virtue did he end up borrowing...?
Everyone had been wondering about this, but the answer finally appeared.
The truth was now clear—Sage Monarch lon Eater had borrowed Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s light of virtue. The only mystery was why his light of virtue was left at the scene.
Could it have been leftovers from the duel between Profound Sage Tyrannical Song and Sage Monarch Winter lon?
❄️❄️❄️
When Sage Monarch lon Eater could no longer keep control of his body and fell to the ground, ‘dying’... inside the Inner World, Song Shuhang and others’ black screen ‘live broadcast’ had resud.
It was just that the ‘live broadcast’ was no longer in bird’s-eye view, but from the perspective of ‘Sage Monarch lon Eater’ instead.
At this ti, Sage Monarch lon Eater was seeing things through a small slit that seed to be from his eyes being slightly open—this allowed him to secretly look at the reactions of everyone present.
Song Shuhang: “...”
Su Clan’s Sixteen said, “Just as we guessed, Sage Monarch lon Eater used the light of virtue you left on the scene.”
“I wasn’t doing anything but was unjustly implicated.” Song Shuhang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Shi blinked, and said, “Are we looking at the outside from Sage Monarch lon Eater’s perspective? Does that an that Sage Monarch lon Eater is currently lying on the ground? Could he have been beaten down by Sage Monarch Winter lon?”
Song Shuhang thought of his virtuous lamia’s hobby, and when he saw what appeared to be a ‘peeping’ scene, he imdiately guessed the correct answer.
Song Shuhang said, “I’m afraid he wasn’t beaten down, but rather started acting out according to the virtuous lamia’s hobby of lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.”
It was quite amusing seeing the powerful Senior lon Eater lying down on the ground and pretending to be dead in the middle of the battle.
...Letting others also have a taste of such a kind of embarrassnt allowed Song Shuhang to unexpectedly feel better about it.
At the sa ti, Song Shuhang’s will moved.
The body of the virtuous lamia appeared behind him. Because of the several tis when she had been blasted apart today, the virtuous lamia appeared quite small this ti—she was only half the size of Song Shuhang.
After she appeared, her eyes fell on Scarlet Heaven Sword, who was beside Song Shuhang.
Scarlet Heaven Sword suddenly felt uncomfortable—it was a divine weapon, and not a prop to perform the sword swallowing with, alright? It also had its own dignity.
Song Shuhang loudly asked, “Is Sage Monarch lon Eater playing dead?”
It was weird to ask one’s own light of virtue questions, but Song Shuhang’s light of virtue was a little different.
The virtuous lamia crooked her head—she seed to be unable to understand Song Shuhang’s problem. When she crooked her head, her eyes were still staring at Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Song Shuhang sighed.
❄️❄️❄️
At the foot of the spiritual mountain.
After about 10 seconds, Sage Monarch lon Eater got up from the ground and patted his body, feeling very embarrassed.
What had he done just now?
Why did I suddenly go crazy, start screaming, fall to the ground, and play dead?
I’ve lost my dignity!
“Winter lon, let’s continue,” Sage Monarch lon Eater said gravely.
The secret technique was going to reach its ti limit soon—he should end the battle with a single move to reestablish so of his dignity.
Sage Monarch Winter lon worriedly asked, “Senior lon Eater, are you fine?”
Sage Monarch lon Eater said, “Rest assured, I’m in great shape. I rely lost so control just now. Anyway, the secret technique’s going to reach its ti limit soon. Let’s finish this quickly.”
Since his senior said so, Winter lon could only nod in agreent.
Taking the opportunity, Sage Monarch Winter lon had recondensed and restored his ‘Iron Fortress’.
Sage Monarch lon Eater waved his hand, and put away his horsetail whisk and dagger.
Now that he’d decided to ‘end the duel with a single move’, he had to at least show so of his true skills.
“Omnipresent and awe-inspiring dignity that is said to protect the universe...” Sage Monarch lon Eater said gently as his Sage Seal lood around his body. The light of virtue grew brighter and more dazzling, making it impossible to see Sage Monarch lon Eater.
Sage Monarch Winter lon wore a serious face. He knew that Senior lon Eater’s next move would end the duel. This move was also the final test of his path of defense.
Co, Senior! Let prove the limits of my path of defense to you.
The spirits of the reporters were raised—the battle was finally no longer in the attack-power-entirely-depending-on-the-roaring mode. The reporters could also see that the next move was going to be the end of the duel.
I am afraid that the next strike from Senior lon Eater will be no weaker than Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯ from before... Could it possibly be even stronger? everyone on the scene thought.
Even Song Shuhang and the others inside the Inner World thought so.
Sage Monarch lon Eater calmly said, “Virtuous—Giant Sun!”
His voice, which was transmitted through the ‘Sage Seal’, shook everyone’s hearts.
In the next mont, the light of virtue on his body turned into an actual Giant Sun, very dazzling to the eye.
That Giant Sun swelled and rolled towards Sage Monarch Winter lon.
With just a single touch, Sage Monarch Winter lon’s strongest defense, the Iron Fortress, already began to quickly shrink... and so of it was even lting.
It’s finally over! The eyes of all the reporters were bright.
long Eater was indeed worthy of being an old and experienced Profound Sage. This move was extrely powerful, and it wasn’t any weaker than Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯—it even felt slightly stronger.
Just in this fashion, Sage Monarch Winter lon’s ‘Iron Fortress’ lted away.
The rolling sun rays approached Sage Monarch Winter lon before stopping an inch away from him.
“I lost.” Sage Monarch Winter lon closed his eyes as even he had no way of directly looking at Sage Monarch lon Eater’s ‘Giant Sun’ form.
“You’ve already done a good job. Your Iron Fortress could last for about three breaths under my ‘Virtuous Giant Sun’, it’s much stronger than I expected.” Sage Monarch lon Eater’s voice sounded out.
In the next mont, that Giant Sun began to shrink, and the light of virtue that filled the sky had returned.
Sage Monarch lon Eater continued, “It’s just that your Iron Fortress still has a lot to improve on. While the ti limit of the secret technique has still not been reached, I’ll transmit so things to you.”
What lon Eater wanted to transmit was the shortcomings of Sage Monarch Winter lon’s ‘Iron Fortress’. As these could be considered to be Winter lon’s weak points, it naturally couldn’t be heard by outsiders.
Therefore, he used a secret sound transmission technique to tell Sage Monarch Winter lon of his shortcomings.
After a long while.
Sage Monarch Winter lon thanked Senior lon Eater with a bow. “Senior, thank you for your guidance.”
“There’s no need for such politeness between the two of us.” Profound Sage lon Eater nodded with satisfaction.
At this ti, his dignity had recovered quite a bit.
The image and style of an otherworldly expert had returned.
Profound Sage lon Eater gently said, “Your path of defense is very good, keep going. I hope I can see you becoming a Tribulation Transcender one day, and perhaps even... soone who can make his ‘path’ perfect.”
After Winter lon’s potential was affird by his senior, his eyes exuded even greater confidence.
In tonight’s appointed duel, what he needed the most... was this affirmation from Senior lon Eater.
With this sentence from Senior lon Eater, he was even more confident that he could go further on the path of defense.
“Then, we shall et again in the future.” Profound Sage lon Eater made a hand seal, and prepared to cancel the secret technique.
Profound Sage lon Eater said, “Let’s go!”
After that, a few seconds passed.
Profound Sage lon Eater still maintained the sa posture of activating a hand seal.
A distant reporter loudly asked, “Has Senior lon Eater left?”
“But his virtuous body is still there?” another reporter wondered aloud.
Winter lon curiously asked, “Senior lon Eater?”
At this ti, Profound Sage lon Eater made another hand seal, and solemnly said, “Let’s go!”
Several seconds flew by once again.
Yet, Profound Sage lon Eater had yet to disappear.
Shiet, the secret technique can’t be canceled.
lon Eater’s heart beca restless.
