52 Battle with the Lord of Lotus Rock

In the Nine Hells, Lotus Rock Island erupted!

After more than three hundred thousand years since the last challenge to the Lord, Lotus Rock Island once again faced a challenge to its ruler.

The Lord of Lotus Rock, "Frost Condensation," responded to Star's challenge, setting the battle date for ten days later.

"Lord Roy, I heard that you will challenge the Lord of Lotus Rock in ten days. Does that mean we will become the rulers of Lotus Rock Island in ten days?" Kristel eagerly asked Roy upon returning to the Four Divine Beast Clan's residence on Lotus Rock Island.

"Well, barring any unexpected occurrences, this place will indeed become the main stronghold of the Four Divine Beast Clan in the Underworld in ten days," Roy nodded.

As for losing? Whether it was Roy or the members of the Four Divine Beast Clan, they never considered this possibility.

"That's great!"

Having received Roy's affirmative answer, Kristel happily went to share the news with her new friends.

Seeing this scene, Roy shook his head. Well, after all, she's just a maid...

So be it.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Today was the day of the decisive battle between Roy and the Lord of Lotus Rock, "Frost Condensation."

As expected, the Blood Battle Platform on Lotus Rock Island was empty today. The battles of the Lords often caused spatial disruptions, and the Blood Battle Platform couldn't withstand their clashes.

Therefore, to prevent damage to the Blood Battle Platform, the battles between the Lords would take place outside the city.

Roy and the Lord of Lotus Rock, "Frost Condensation," chose the Nine Hells Sea, the easternmost part of Lotus Rock Island, as their battleground.

On this day, Roy led over ten thousand members of the Four Divine Beast Clan to the battlefield. Upon seeing Roy, the spectators tacitly made way for the Four Divine Beast Clan members to watch the battle.

Meanwhile, Roy flew to the sky above the Nine Hells Sea, awaiting the arrival of the Lord of Lotus Rock.

Not making Roy wait long, after a dozen minutes, the Lord of Lotus Rock, "Frost Condensation," arrived with the people of Lotus Rock Island.

Edgar and Marshall, the two brothers, along with the Lord's people, occupied a spot on the side, preparing to witness this battle.

This battle didn't only affect the Lord of Lotus Rock; those under his rule were also impacted. If the Lord of Lotus Rock won against Star, they could continue living on Lotus Rock Island. If the Lord were defeated, they would have to leave with the Lord.

...

"Let's begin."

After flying to a position parallel to Roy, the Lord of Lotus Rock, "Frost Condensation," spoke directly.

"Sure, please."

Roy didn't hold back either.

Roy's challenge to the Lord of Lotus Rock could be considered "provoking the tiger." He didn't expect any good treatment from the Lord of Lotus Rock in the first place. The directness of the Lord of Lotus Rock suited Roy's intentions perfectly.

Might makes right, and the victor possesses everything, while the defeated have only death or leaving.

Roy didn't dare underestimate the Lord of Lotus Rock. Right from the start, he employed a move that combined five mysterious laws.

Extending his hand, he gestured towards the Lord of Lotus Rock.

"Five-Finger Mountain!"

"Boom!"

The space around Frost Condensation was controlled by intense gravitational force. Under this powerful gravity, the space became distorted, revealing faint black lines.

Not only that, but a massive hand-shaped mountain peak shadow descended from the sky above the Lord of Lotus Rock. It shattered the space with numerous cracks, pressuring the Lord of Lotus Rock.

"Humph!"

The Lord of Lotus Rock let out a cold snort, conjuring a slender ice-blue transparent sword in his hand.

"Swoosh!"

With a single sword strike, a huge ice-blue sword aura tore through space and bombarded the base of the Five-Finger Mountain.

"Boom!"

A tremendous force erupted, causing Roy's Five-Finger Mountain to tremble slightly.

At this moment, the Lord of Lotus Rock burst into action.

"Thousand-Mile Ice Seal!"

"Chilling Frost Accumulation!"

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Countless seawaters in the Nine Hells Sea erupted and were ultimately transformed by the Lord of Lotus Rock into an iceberg, shielding himself at the center.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

"Crack, crack..."

Roy's Five-Finger Mountain shadow collided with the Lord of Lotus Rock's iceberg. For an instant, it seemed as if the world had lost its color.

The massive explosion caused a huge space rift, absorbing the power of their collision into the chaotic space currents.

Under Roy's Five-Finger Mountain, the Lord of Lotus Rock's iceberg didn't last long before shattering into countless pieces.

However, Roy's Five-Finger Mountain shadow also faded a bit, losing much of its power as the Lord of Lotus Rock immediately followed up with an attack, slashing through it.

Subsequently, the Lord of Lotus Rock turned into a blue light, and a huge sword aura was unleashed towards Roy.

Just as Roy was about to counterattack, he suddenly felt his reactions slowing down. Inside his soul space, the Starry Sky Bell rang "dong, dong, dong," waking up his consciousness.

"Soul attack?"

Roy was shocked. If it weren't for the Starry Sky Bell protecting his soul just now, he would have fallen victim to it.

When did the Lord of Lotus Rock launch a soul attack?

This move was treacherous. At first, it didn't show much intensity, just deceiving one's senses. The lethal attack came later in the form of freezing cold that could immobilize the body, rendering one incapable of feeling their body and ultimately freezing both the body and the soul.

"Ha!"

Regaining his clarity, Roy's divine power erupted, shattering the beginning of the freezing on his body. He extended his right hand towards the incoming Lord of Lotus Rock.

Using "Earth's Pulse" as the core, a supreme technique combining "Earth Travel," "Strength," "Earth Element," and "Gravity Space" exploded instantly.

"Spacequake!"

"Crack, crack..."

The space in front of Roy shattered like glass.

Countless space fissures instantly spread towards the Lord of Lotus Rock, causing the Lord's body and the surrounding space to crack and rupture.

"No!"

Severely injured, the Lord of Lotus Rock's face was filled with horror. Ignoring the need to conserve divine power, he erupted with a vast amount of energy. From his head down to his neck, he swiftly regenerated two arms. Then, at the fastest speed, he attempted to escape the suction of the space fissure.

Unfortunately, he was in the center of the space rift. Unless a Great Perfect Upper God with willpower or possessing a defensive artifact was present, no one could escape the pull of the space fissure.

"Save me..."

Desperate, the Lord of Lotus Rock could only plead for Roy's help: "Lord Star, I beg you, please save me! I'm willing to recognize you as my master, please save me..."

"This..."

"Seal of the Heavens!"

Hearing the Lord of Lotus Rock's plea, Roy waved his hand. Instantly, several chains flew out from the sky, binding Frost Condensation's head.

Unfortunately, Roy's action was a bit late. The Lord of Lotus Rock's head had already been pulled into the space rift.
