The dust rolled in waves, and the mushroom cloud began to collapse; amid the smoke, Li Changzhou and Yak stood steadfast in their original positions, both seizing this ti to ponder their next moves.
"Once a Divine Will breaks through to beco an Earth Immortal, one can imdiately gain powerful destructive power," Guanyin voiced inside his mind, "We cultivate mana, and without the accumulation of long years, once we've just beco Earth Immortals, we can only gain a foothold outside the world, as well as the Age Elent that lives and ages with the land."
To fight Li Changzhou to this standstill, even a cultivator who had just beco an Earth Immortal couldn't do it, but a Second Rank Divine Will could.
"Yak has many abilities; if you use 'Black Fog - Devour,' you should be able to counter him. But this is only the first opponent, save Devour as a trump card and don't use it unless absolutely necessary."
"Mhm," Li Changzhou thought of strategies.
Because of the limitations of the arena, coupled with intelligence being leaked in advance, "Teleportation" didn't work as well as he had imagined.
But the limitations of the arena were not unique to him; the opponent faced the sa constraints. From this perspective, perhaps he could devise a plan.
After coming up with an approach, while refining it, Li Changzhou reminded himself to adapt to circumstances on the fly—never force the plan into action.
At the other end of the dust, Yak furrowed his brow.
What a tough opponent!
'Divine Will - Ho Court' is one of the few Divine Wills that can draw on "external forces" during a match. The more people who support him, the greater his ability to suppress his enemy's emotions.
Despite the billions of spectators' emotions backing him, he still couldn't suppress Li Changzhou's emotions, and was nearly influenced by him instead. What kind of Divine Will did the opponent possess, and how could it be so powerful?
He had been too greedy just a mont ago.
He shouldn't have used 'Dead Corpse Reincarnation' to host a spirit, thinking to learn those powerful and odd Divine Wills from him before killing him, and then using his corpse to continue through the subsequent rounds, dealing with those troubleso guys.
This was a weakness of the Spirit Clan's character. Before the match, the Elder had repeatedly reminded him—how could he...
No, he couldn't think about this now—it wasn't the ti for reflection.
The opponent still possessed formidable physical strength, along with teleportation that needed to be constantly guarded against...
Under the arena's gravity—which far exceeded the norm—smoke and dust fell at a speed dozens of tis faster than on Earth, and the two n were once again exposed to each other's line of sight.
The murmuring audience imdiately fell silent, their attention fixed on the field.
Yak lifted his hands from his knees, and at so point, a blood mark appeared in the palm of each of his left and right hands.
With a slashing motion, he flung his arms out, throwing the blood towards both sides of the arena.
At the sa mont, Li Changzhou's "Ability" transford into mana—
"Primordial Spirit Wisdom Sword!"
"Soul Annihilation!"
"Soul Shifting Technique!"
"Great Asura Divine Skill!"
White Bone Temple! Bodhisattva Temple! White Tower Temple! Soul Vortex! Soul Extraction! Mao Mountain Corpse Chasing Spirit Communication Technique! Hell Thunder Scripture...Heaven and Earth Furnace!
Divine Soul Buzhou Mountain!
Boom!!
Li Changzhou's brain reeled with dizziness.
Yak glanced at him with mild surprise.
"Divine Will is essentially the human heart, and of course, when one's heart is harder than the Heavenly Will, harder than fate itself, that is Divine Will! You, boy, thinking about won all day, it's one thing to bully , a solitary wandering ghost, but to actually clash head-on with soone else! Thankfully, the kasaya refined by Qing Lan blocked so of the backlash for you!" Guanyin spoke rapidly, berating Li Changzhou while informing him of the reason for the backlash.
Li Changzhou had thought he'd caught the opponent off guard, only to find that he was the one at a disadvantage.
As space absorbed Yak's blood, waves upon waves of ripples erged; from the ripples on both sides, two six-ard sinister deities, each about five hundred ters tall, stepped out.
Their muscles looked as if cast from tal, their forms elongated, appearing not like life forms, but more like machines.
Yet the flowing blood and the enormous breaths made it clear to everyone that they were indeed living beings with six arms and standing five hundred ters tall.
"Those are Dark Star beings!"
"Yak has actually grasped 'Divine Will - Dark Star Summon'!"
"Among those who advanced to the third round, there's a Dark Star being, right?!"
As the Dark Star beings erged from the void ripples, Yak began to vanish starting from his feet.
Transforming "Ability" into Divine Will, Li Changzhou's twitching head imdiately eased, and simultaneously, with an open grasp, a Divine Will Golden Spear was held in his hand.
Boom!
The infallible Golden Spear shot out like a shooting star.
One of the Dark Star beings reached out with a giant palm to intercept, but the Golden Spear punctured it easily—its target had to be hit and could only hit that target!
After flying so distance, the Golden Spear vanished following Yak's disappearance.
The two Dark Star beings no longer bothered with it. Their giant eyes, proportional to their bodies, looked toward Li Changzhou. Li Changzhou's hands, tucked in his coat pockets, showed no sign of coming out as a black and gold King Cobra slithered at his feet.
Moving forward a step, the serpent's body doubled in size; by the ti it reached the center of the arena, it had grown from four ters to a kiloter, spreading out like a mountain range!
The colossal snake and the two five hundred-ter-tall Dark Star beings confronted each other in the duel arena!
Witnessing the scene that resembled a myth, the audience felt breathless.
Soone murmured to themselves, "This shouldn't be the opening act; it should be the final match."
"Any one of these Divine Wills could kill us!"
"So participants in the third round couldn't even withstand a single move! The summoning Divine Wills we're witnessing are already stronger than many people's!"
"The first two rounds were just eye-opening, but it certainly takes the third round to get the blood boiling. That's the real reason to be here! Earthling, you can do it! I'm rooting for you!"
"That said, what exactly is Earth?"
"Since it's called Earth, the surface must account for at least sixty percent of the planet, or maybe it's just a spherical body. Earthlings could be living inside the planet's core."
