Chapter 1256: Chapter 1256: Hell Has No Gate
The so-called trial of the North Sea Princess suddenly became a topic of great interest among the guests.
Although some doubted the authenticity of the event, the Arhat of Homicide did not deny it, and Baylor Davenport was known for her capricious ways.
Many were half-convinced.
But at this moment.
Everyone’s attention was focused more on the arena.
Baylor Davenport personally beat the drum and declared that if the man on the stage won, they would be wed today.
If he died in battle, she would personally attend to his coffin.
Indeed.
The position of Prince Consort of the North Sea was not so easily secured.
It came with life-threatening risks.
Worst case scenario, the Prince Consort would not be secured and instead become a dead horse.
Meanwhile, at the Bead Pulse.
Solaris Grove was brimming with excitement.
Excited to see Baylor Davenport again, and excited at the prospect of watching his rival Jorvik Reed be killed.
Unfortunately, he himself had already defected from the North Sea and found it difficult to marry Baylor Davenport.
But the thought that what he couldn’t have, neither could anyone else, Solaris Grove still felt quite satisfied.
Fighting over a woman with me!
Then go to your death!
The royal ceremony instantly transformed into a trial of the North Sea Princess for her Prince Consort.
Everyone held their breaths and watched intently as two men faced off on the stage.
One was the most capable Arhat from the West Sea’s divine abode.
The other was the brave dragon slayer who had killed the Mad Dragon.
No matter the outcome, this competition was eagerly anticipated.
However.
On the dais.
The atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
The Arhat of Homicide held his Buddha Beads, his face all smiles.
He seemed to have absolute confidence in the upcoming battle.
Julius Reed, on the other hand, was also smiling.
But his smile was sinister to the extreme.
At his fingertips, a fine black line began to spread from the Dragon King Ring.
Compared to before, this line was much finer.
After the battle with Shadow Gate, Julius Reed had already learned to control the Evil Qi in the Dragon King Ring to a certain extent.
When he opened his body to the Evil Qi at Shadow Gate, while retaining a sliver of rationality to embrace it, he was also testing the strength of the Evil Qi.
And after the incident in Medicine King Valley, he had almost identified the critical threshold.
As long as the Evil Qi did not exceed a certain point, Julius Reed could still control his rationality and not be overly influenced by the Evil Qi.
Of course, there would be an effect.
Evil Qi would make one murderous.
But right now, such murderousness was what Julius Reed desired.
Everton Davenport had completely given up on him, which fit right into Julius Reed’s wish.
The North Sea is keen to avoid a conflict with the West Sea and even thinking of sacrificing itself?
Then, in front of everyone, he would kill the Arhat of Homicide in the name of the North Sea and see how the North Sea King and the divine Buddha of the West Sea would explain it.
"Donor, your killing intent is heavy." The Arhat of Homicide held his Buddha Beads and looked at Julius Reed: "One so young should not harbor such heavy killing intent. Fortunately, I have arrived in time to bring you to enlightenment and bliss."
After speaking, his pupils shrank, and he thrust forth a palm!
What seemed like an ordinary palm contained immense power.
Simplicity in the grand path.
The more skilled one is, the less flashy one’s moves will be.
When all visual entertainment is discarded, what remains is true skill.
Boom!
Julius Reed threw a punch to meet it!
Fist against palm!
Two forces of absolute firmness and positivity clashed fiercely.
For the first time, the Arhat of Homicide’s expression grew stern.
But soon, he smiled in relief: "As I expected, crossing you over to enlightenment will take some time, but coincidentally, I have all the time in the world."
"But I, am in a rush."
Julius Reed suddenly exerted his strength!
The Dragon King Ring flickered with a crimson glow.
A thicker black line began to spread.
But its target was not Julius Reed’s brain, but rather it closely followed the Arhat of Homicide’s five fingers.
The black line, in the blink of an eye, passed through the palm of the Arhat of Homicide, rapidly spreading down his arm.
"May I ask the Arhat, how many levels does hell have?"
Julius Reed asked indifferently.
The two maintained the same stance, each extending an arm to compete in strength.
"Hell itself has no gates, why not go to the Western Paradise?" The Arhat of Homicide spoke: "In the teachings of the West Sea, there is no hell. There is only the Pure Land, where everyone yearns to be."
After speaking, he added, "It is precisely there that I wish to send the donor."
"Sorry, state affairs are busy," said Julius Reed with a shake of his head. "No time to go."
"Why bother asking then?"
Arhat of Homicide’s originally smiling face turned somewhat ferocious. 𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
"Buying time." Julius Reed suddenly withdrew his fist, retreating several steps.
The Evil Qi had already entered his body.
Arhat of Homicide was completely off guard.
He had used all his strength to deal with Julius Reed, which exactly allowed the Evil Qi to slip in.
"You..."
Arhat of Homicide slightly furrowed his brows, his face no longer composed as before.
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
Now, his mind was consumed by thoughts of killing!
"No, this isn’t me!"
Arhat of Homicide held his head with both hands, his facial features painfully twisted: "The Buddha mercifully guides all under heaven, delivering mortals to the bliss of the afterlife!"
He chanted frantically.
For a master, losing one’s sanity is the most terrifying thing.
For the first time in his life, Arhat of Homicide was mentally in complete disarray!
"Do you feel as if the strength within your body is gradually being drained?"
Julius Reed said with a light smile, "Because I have poisoned you. Heard of Absolute Dust?"
Having said that, he sprinted at extreme speed!
Like a bolt of lightning!
And then threw a massive punch!
"Despicable!"
Arhat of Homicide crossed his arms in front of himself!
Boom!
A muffled sound!
He staggered backwards several steps, his complexion ashen to the extreme!
Even the hand holding the beads was shaking uncontrollably.
"What?"
The crowd below was stunned.
The situation on the stage seemed different from what they had imagined.
Baylor Davenport’s face also showed a flash of gravity.
And then, he continued to beat the drum!
With even more vigor!
And on the stage.
The strength within Arhat of Homicide was gradually slipping away.
Despite his strong martial skills, he wasn’t immediately incapacitated.
But the effects of Absolute Dust still made Arhat of Homicide feel sluggish in his movements!
Once he was unable to concentrate, the Evil Qi began to wreak havoc!
"Hiss!"
Arhat of Homicide stood in place, sharply inhaling a breath of cold air, his eyes bloodshot.
That punch from Julius Reed just now had caused turmoil in his circulation of Qi.
The Evil Qi took this opportunity to start causing trouble.
"Can you withstand another punch from me?"
Julius Reed rolled up the sleeves of his python robe, asking coldly.
"No big deal."
Arhat of Homicide licked his lips, taking a deep breath.
It seemed he was prepared to let the Evil Qi take over, deciding to unleash a killing spree!
"I don’t think you can."
Whoosh!
Julius Reed leaped into the air, his fists like a great mountain, pressing down instantly!
"Break!"
Arhat of Homicide fiercely tore apart the Buddha Beads in his hand!
In an instant!
Eighteen beads hovered in the air!
With a grasp through the air with his hands, the beads strung together in mid-air, forming a line like a Longsword!
Arhat of Homicide’s movements halted, his face twisted in pain!
Under the effects of Absolute Dust, a regular Grandmaster would have already been unable to move.
But Arhat of Homicide still persisted and even managed to use his ultimate technique, proving his formidable strength.
"Go!"
He bellowed, his face twisted viciously!
The eighteen beads, like a sword, thrust directly toward Julius Reed!
And Julius Reed quickly landed, violently stepping forward!
Hum!
An invisible energy field appeared in front of him!
It actually caused the beads to hover between the two of them!
Spreading out into a line eighteen meters long.
