Just when the fist was about to hit the water shield, David vaguely saw that there seemed to be a flash of light and shadow inside the water shield. It was a figure, also waving its fist and colliding with his fist.
Boom!
The impact of the soul power stirred up dust and scattered it around. David's body shook, and he took two steps back again. One of his feet was even hanging outside the arena, but no one paid attention to this. Everyone was shocked. David's body seemed to have received a powerful backlash at this moment. His figure staggered back more than ten steps before he managed to stabilize himself. David raised his head, his face full of shock. David was actually repelled? What was going on? How could the rebounding power of Albert's water shield be so strong? "Did you notice that more than half of David's attack was rebounded back? This is far beyond what this water shield can usually achieve." Once again, an uproar broke out all around, along with incredulous exclamations. David's face looked a bit ugly as he stared at Albert fiercely, thinking to himself, "There's something strange about Albert's water shield!" Around the arena, everyone was shocked, and disbelief was written all over their faces. How could it be possible? Albert had actually blocked David's full-strength blow? Everyone in the arena was familiar with the Water Shield Technique. Some of the students also had water element souls and had practiced the Water Shield Technique as well, but it was impossible for the Water Shield Technique to block David's full-strength attack. However, this had actually happened and was right in front of their eyes. Rosalie's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but open her small mouth. Henry exclaimed even louder, "This is unbelievable!" In the distance, Kelly was watching this scene on the arena. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Albert. It seemed that her guess was right. Albert really had a way to counter David! He had actually achieved something that seemed impossible. In the arena, Albert shook his aching arms, stared at David, whose face was extremely ugly, smiled at him, and then moved away from the edge of the arena. Albert was overjoyed inside at this moment because his experiment had succeeded. The technique he had just used was the Water Shield Technique, but the secret was that Albert had superimposed his own light element soul power and added a technique called the Refraction Technique inside it. The Water Shield Technique could rebound power, and the Refraction Technique could deflect the opponent. When these two special characteristics were combined, it formed an enhanced version of the Water Shield Technique that could rebound more power back. According to Albert's prediction, when cultivated to a high level, it could even directly replicate the enemy. And this improved Water Shield Technique was called the "Water-light Magic Shield" by Albert, using the enemy's power to attack the enemy. David said gloomily at this moment, "Playing tricks! Do you think this can change today's result?" His figure shot out again. His five fingers turned into claws, and vaguely, extremely sharp eagle claws emerged. David didn't hesitate at all and continued to charge forward. Albert used the improved and enhanced Water Shield Technique again, and the water shield appeared in front of him as if it were solid. David punched ferociously. Bang! A dull sound rang out, and the two of them retreated at the same time again. This time, David was prepared and wasn't as embarrassed as last time. David's face was getting uglier and uglier. He found that Albert's Water Shield Technique was too strange. Every time they made contact, he felt as if he was hitting himself. "Is this still the Water Shield Technique?" This time, David's attack was blocked by Albert again. Everyone in the audience swallowed hard. Maybe it was just luck the first time, but blocking it twice showed real skill. At this time, Dean Walton, Lamb, Hill and others on the high platform all had looks of disbelief on their faces. The old dean said, "Albert's Water Shield Technique seems unusual." The other tutors all nodded. An ordinary Water Shield Technique couldn't have put David in such a sorry state. "Judging from the degree of rebound, it feels like a mortal-level soul technique," one tutor analyzed. Soon, another tutor refuted, "With an entry-level sixth-stage strength, can one perform a mortal-level soul technique?" The previous tutor didn't know what to say. For a mortal-level soul technique, the required soul power was far from enough, not even for the tenth stage, let alone the sixth stage. Hill said, "Albert should have improved that Water Shield Technique." The other tutors looked at each other. Although they knew that Albert had a high talent and comprehension in soul techniques, improving a soul technique wasn't something that someone at his level could do. Apart from this explanation, there seemed to be no other explanation. And Tutor Lamb, who had been silent from beginning to end, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot because this situation was completely different from what he had expected. David stared at Albert fiercely, wanting to charge forward again, but when he thought of thatstrange "Water Shield Technique", he stopped. David gritted his teeth and said, "Albert, do you dare to attack?"
Albert shook his head and said, "I don't dare. Come on then." David was trembling with anger. It was so damn frustrating. Clearly, my strength was far superior to Albert's, but as long as he used that strange Water Shield Technique, it left him at a loss. However, David wasn't a fool. The Water Shield Technique was a high-level soul technique. If he forced Albert to keep using it, Albert wouldn't be able to use it many times before his soul power was exhausted. Suddenly, David activated his soul power again, but this time he suppressed his own soul power and charged at Albert.Latest Chapter
Chapter 1346
The group brightened at the obvious effect and intensified their assaults. Yet their amplified offensive pressed heavy strain onto Euphemia inside the hall. She was pulled in multiple directions at once: draining the nascent True Demon Egg from Albert, fending off the Blood Coffin Bearer, and now enduring the combined attacks from Ida and her companions.Heavy footsteps echoed faintly from beyond the hall walls. A ruthless glint flashed beneath Euphemia’s lowered eyes. She focused her mind and awakened a primal power slumbering deep within her body.The next instant, blackish-green serpent scales surfaced across her fair skin. A sharp horn of the same dark emerald hue slowly pierced through the flesh on her smooth forehead and protruded outward.An otherworldly, fiendish aura now clung thickly to Euphemia.She struggled desperately to buy time, striving to completely neutralize the True Demon Egg inside Albert’s left arm before the Blood Coffin Bearer broke through.Time slipped away
Chapter 1345
Though Ida and the others landed blows across his body, carving hideous gashes into his flesh, writhing tissue knit those wounds shut in the blink of an eye. The Blood Coffin Bearer paid them no mind any longer. He could never abide letting the half nascent True Demon Egg fall into Green Serpent’s possession. Stomping his foot hard enough to cave in the ground beneath him, he raced after the fleeing blackish-green serpent without delay.The ferocious battle descended into total chaos once more.The serpent moved with staggering speed. Moments later, it slithered into a vast hall, parted its massive jaws, and expelled Albert onto the stone floor.Albert tensed for combat, straining to suppress the malevolent aura gnawing at his left arm while bracing himself to strike out at any second.Just as he scrambled to plan his last-ditch counterattack, a slender pale hand stretched out from the serpent’s maw, clutching a sharp venomous fang. A graceful feminine figure then stepped forth from t

Meanwhile, within another section of the Palace of All Living Things, another team was hurrying forward at high speed.Abruptly, the group ground to a halt and lifted their gazes toward the distant northern sky, where a faint, faint signal had flared into view.One disciple from Tianyuan Ancient Academy’s eyes widened in shock the moment he spotted it, exclaiming loudly, “That’s Senior Ida’s distress signal! They’re under attack?!”Panic rippled through the rest of the group. If someone as powerful as Ida had been forced to call for help, their predicament must be dire indeed.A disciple turned to ask, “Brother Frank, should we rush over to provide aid? Or press on toward the Heavenly Ghost Altar first?”Every pair of eyes shifted toward the two figures leading their formation at the front.The pair consisted of a man and a woman — Frank and Emily, without a shred of doubt.Frank froze for a split second, his gaze flickering subtly. If Ida’s party was in trouble, that could only mean…
Chapter 1343
In the next instant, surging, powerful soul force burst skyward from countless figures, blooming into magnificent Heavenly Spirit Diagrams mid-air that drew upon the ambient heaven-and-earth energy.The other disciples who had reached the Perfected High Heavenly Spirit Realm unleashed their respective treasures, throwing their full strength into fending off the incoming black coffins.Terrifying ripples of energy rampaged across the area. Several of these Perfected High Heavenly Spirit Realm disciples were sent reeling with churning internal vital blood, overwhelmed by the sheer number of coffins bearing down on their formation.Thankfully, top-tier fighters including Ida and Toni moved instantly to intercept most of the coffins and ease the burden on the rest of the group.“Albert! Hand over my nascent True Demon Egg this instant!” A feral, maddened shriek echoed through the air as a streak of bloody light cut through the void — it was the Blood Coffin Bearer. His body writhed and co

It turns out those eerie processions hauling coffins on their backs belong to the Reunion Covenant, that unfathomably mysterious faction.One disciple cursed angrily. “They are supposed to be a human faction, yet they collude with fiendish abominations. They are utterly detestable!”Albert glanced down at his ghost arm. Strictly speaking, three and a half nascent True Demon Eggs had fallen into the hands of the Slaughter Ghost Unit and the Wraith Fiend Unit. That half egg was festering within his left arm.Ida pondered briefly before speaking in a grave tone. “Everyone, our top priority is to head straight for the Heavenly Ghost Altar and link up with the other teams. The Palace of All Living Things is rife with hidden dangers. Only by uniting our full strength can we stand a chance against the Wraith Fiend Unit and the Slaughter Ghost Unit.”No one raised any objections to this plan.The group set off without delay. Streaks of soul force surged into the air as they maintained formati
Chapter 1341
He instantly realized that Toni had rushed over after sensing the intense surges of light energy emanating from this spot.“Holy Thorns!” The moment Toni landed her feet, she caught sight of the Holy Thorns clutched in Albert’s hands, and her eyes instantly lit up with greed.As a bearer of a light elemental soul, she knew far better than most how immensely valuable and desirable this rare spiritual material truly was.Noticing the greedy glint in her gaze, Albert hastily stowed all the Holy Thorns inside his spatial orb.Toni froze for a split second, then spoke to Albert. “Name your price. Sell these Holy Thorns to me. Your light soul is merely a supporting soul; these treasures hold little practical value for you.”Albert shook his head firmly. “I can’t sell them. I have no use for them myself, but I intend to give them to Emily as a gift.”“For Emily?!”Toni gritted her teeth sharply upon hearing this. That infuriating woman always snatched everything she wanted for herself. Still
