"Give it your all, or you will surely die!" Chiba growled in a deep voice.
Lobin quickly composed himself, a faint, unreadable smile appearing on his lips. "You're strong, but don't underestimate me."
Indeed, someone who has fought for decades in this place and made it into the Dueling Spirit Rankings, a Supreme Lord, possesses not only extraordinary Soul Energy but also cunning intelligence that cannot be ignored.
"Xi Meng, is Mu Tou going to be okay?" Xiaopu asked, tugging at my arm.
"Chiba in dragon form is powerful. In terms of Soul Energy, he and Lobin are not far apart. However, for some reason, Lobin always gives me the feeling that he is not so simple. Moreover, in terms of combat experience, he has the upper hand."
"What should we do? Is Mu Tou in danger?"
"Chiba is not the type to overestimate himself. We can't intervene in this battle; let's just watch and see what happens. Worrying won't help," I reassured her. In truth, I was also sweating for Chiba.
...
"Phantom Mist—" Chiba growled as a cloud of smoke mixed with various colors surrounded Lobin.
"It's poison!" Xiaopu exclaimed beside me before quickly lowering her voice.
I hadn't expected Chiba to use poison right from the start, and I was even more curious about how much energy Chiba had after transforming.
"Not just poison; if Lobin lets his guard down even slightly and his will weakens enough to create a crack, he will fall into Chiba's illusion," I analyzed.
"But Xi Meng, can you tell what kind of dragon Chiba is now?"
"That's... you've really stumped me. To be honest, I've seen many dragons, but I've never seen one so colorful."
Isn't there a saying in nature that the more colorful something is, the more poisonous it tends to be? It seems that Chiba's poison is quite potent. The various dragon scales must have at least dozens of colors.
"I guess if Mu Tou knew he had turned into this, he would definitely go crazy," Xiaopu laughed.
Lobin was initially uncertain about the power of the newly emerged species, Chiba, and it was evident that he was slightly flustered after the first strike.
The critical moment for Chiba to secure victory was during this period; if Lobin figured out the pattern, his experience would easily allow him to suppress Chiba.
Suddenly, Lobin froze in place for about three seconds. It wasn't long, but if an ordinary person were to lose focus at that moment, it could be fatal.
"Five Poison Dragon Needles!" Chiba opened his mouth and instantly shot out hundreds of fine, needle-like projectiles in three successive waves.
"Hiss—" Xiaopu couldn't help but gasp.
I felt a shiver run through me; if all those needles hit, he would instantly turn into a cactus!
After the shop was completely destroyed, the Old Man didn't run far. Besides tightly holding onto Doudou, he made no other moves. Originally watching from the sidelines, he suddenly closed his eyes, seemingly unable to bear witnessing the impending disaster.
Sigh, it’s not that simple. If it were that easy to defeat Lobin, it would be underestimating him too much.
At that moment, Lobin, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. His gaze was sharp and clear as he looked at Chiba with intensity.
Lobin muttered something under his breath. His previously immobile body swiftly dodged the first wave of dragon needles in less than half a second. He barely avoided the second wave, but there was no escaping the third wave of dragon needles that flew straight toward him.
Just as Xiaopu was about to applaud, a Giant Spider shielded Lobin from behind. It raised its front four legs while standing on its back four legs on the ground, exposing its most vulnerable belly and blocking Chiba's third wave of dragon needles!
It seemed Lobin had timely summoned his magical beast to evade an attack.
The Giant Spider let out a piercing scream as it was knocked back ten meters, its body riddled with needle holes emitting wisps of smoke.
Eventually, it stopped screaming and shrank down until it was no larger than a palm.
Lobin had no time to attend to his magical beast; instead, he stared unblinkingly at Chiba.
"Give up," Chiba said from above, looking down at Lobin.
"Not so fast; the real show is just beginning," Lobin replied with a faint smile still on his lips.
"Next, I will let you see why I am able to enter the top ten of the Dueling Spirit Rankings. You should feel honored that you have forced me to use this ultimate move!"
Lobin took out a small, square, reddish-brown Wooden Box from his pocket, which was engraved with numerous symbols and patterns, but otherwise seemed unremarkable.
I thought to myself, this is bad!
It felt as if a violent and wild sea breeze was rushing in, carrying with it the scent of turbulent seawater.
"He’s doomed, absolutely doomed," the Old Man exclaimed gleefully, having opened his eyes at some point.
"I'll kill you first!" Xiaopu shouted as he prepared to attack.
The Old Man pulled Doudou in front of him, curling up and saying, "Just watch."
I pulled Xiaopu back and looked at the Old Man urgently, "Quickly tell me, what is that?!"
"That is Lord Robin's treasure, 'Waterless Heaven.' Even the top-ranked master of the Dueling Spirit Rankings must treat it with caution."
I didn't have time to listen to the Old Man's rambling; something was happening with Chiba!
"Spirit of the Water Ghost, gather the waters of the world, flow endlessly across the seas, and summon your kind!"
I couldn't believe it; Lobin was actually from the Water Ghost clan!
The small box began to expand gradually, forming a barrier that resembled a protective field, isolating him and Chiba within. We couldn't hear a thing from outside, let alone enter.
This barrier was definitely not an ordinary protective field; it felt more like a mini space had been created. Although it appeared to have a fixed area from the outside, I couldn't tell how vast it truly was; it felt as if it contained endless space.
Water began to surge from somewhere inside, rapidly filling the area. The scene before me resembled a square transparent glass tank filled completely with water!
Lobin instantly transformed into a stream of water and vanished!
Chiba showed signs of panic; his massive body found no advantage in the water.
“Xi Meng, go save the wooden figure!” Xiaopu shouted.
Of course, I wanted to save Chiba, but I had no idea how to do it; that barrier was beyond my ability to break.
“I advise you not to waste your efforts. Only Lord Robin can open the ‘Waterless Heaven.’ Even if you risk your lives, it will be useless!” Old Man laughed.
“I'll just kill you first, you annoying Old Man!” Xiaopu charged forward.
I didn't have the energy to worry about Xiaopu right now; I was nervously watching Chiba's situation.
Suddenly, Chiba opened his mouth in pain!
Damn it, I couldn't hear a thing!
A column of blood shot out from Chiba's body, and a flurry of dragon scales fell down, sinking to the bottom of the water. The blood instantly stained the surrounding sea red, but it was quickly washed away, returning to its clear state.
More and more dragon scales floated down, and the water color in the ‘Waterless Heaven’ began to turn murky. I could sense a strong smell of blood even from outside.
At some point, Xiaopu rushed over from behind, heading straight for the ‘Waterless Heaven,’ desperately pounding and clawing at it, but it had no effect and instead sent her flying back several meters each time.
“It’s useless, Xiaopu.” I pulled her aside and held her tightly.
Chiba's condition was getting worse; his body seemed to be floating, leaning forward as if about to fall.
Only then did Robin appear, saying something to Chiba before raising his right hand. A white orb of light appeared in his palm.
This is bad; Robin really intends to kill Chiba!
This was his final strike!
I released Xiaopu and prepared to step forward. If Chiba was really killed, I would definitely kill Robin in return!
At that moment, I felt a slight tugging sensation behind me—someone was pulling at my clothes. Turning around, I saw a small pair of hands with only four fingers on each hand.
“Doudou?” I looked at the owner of those hands in confusion.
Doudou weakly pulled out a dagger from their embrace, the very ordinary dagger I had noticed earlier. I couldn't tell if it was fear of me or something else, but Doudou's hands trembled slightly as they handed me the dagger.
“What does this mean?” I asked.
Doudou pointed at the dagger, then at the ‘Waterless Heaven’ ahead, and whispered, “Use this to cut it open.”
I Swiftly understood Doudou's meaning and exclaimed, “You mean for me to use this dagger to separate that ‘Waterless Heaven’?”
Doudou nodded, looking quite anxious.
In this situation, I couldn't afford to question further. I drew the dagger and charged toward ‘Waterless Heaven’!
Sure enough, as I tried to separate ‘Waterless Heaven’, I encountered tremendous resistance; a thick, hard wall would not allow anything to damage it.
I summoned all my Soul Energy, closed my eyes tightly, and shouted, “Ah—!” giving it my all!
Suddenly, the world seemed to fall silent.
Gradually, I felt something slightly wet on my face…
Slowly opening my eyes, I was astonished to see a fine crack like a hair appearing on the transparent wall of ‘Waterless Heaven’, with a drop of water sliding down the Wall.
Soon, cracks spread in all directions, and a jet of water burst forth, shooting straight at my face, increasing in volume.
Ignoring the continuous flow of water rushing toward me, I casually wiped my face and laughed heartily!
Xiaopu excitedly ran over, pounding on the shattered area.
“Bang!”
A violent surge of water erupted, soaking both me and Xiaopu, and everything around us was instantly submerged in seawater.
"Damn it!" Lobin shouted angrily!
"Net—"
The sea water instantly vanished, leaving the ground dry and revealing a shattered Wooden Box.
Just when we thought it was over, Lobin smiled again, "Now I can't let you go!"
"Net closing—!" Lobin commanded.
What is happening?!
The spider that had seemingly lost its anger instantly returned to its original state, and a clear black web appeared behind Chiba!
With most of his Soul Energy depleted and covered in wounds, Chiba was suddenly ensnared in the web, the strands digging into his flesh!
Just when everyone thought Chiba was doomed, he suddenly extended his hands, a fierce killing intent gleaming in his eyes as he stared intently at Lobin.
"You are fortunate to witness my next strike—"
