Azure Blade, Azure Umbrella
As soon as Du Kao appeared, he silently blocked Weeks' escape route.
Weeks knew very well that his chances of escape were slim, and he also knew that his only hope lay with Boyi, who had just left. If Boyi returned to rescue him, he would have a sliver of hope; otherwise, he would most likely perish on the spot.
So when Boyi appeared in a white robe, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled down, because he knew Boyi's power.
This scene was also broadcast to Gu Ding and his group via video projection by Sea Emperor.
"Can Boyi win?" Dokter couldn't help but ask when he saw this.
"Based on the information I have so far, he has a high chance of being defeated, because this Fourth Elder is simply too powerful." Having witnessed Du Kao's true Combat Strength, the Sea Emperor was not optimistic about Boyi.
"I don't think Boyi will lose..." Gu Ding gave a completely different assessment from Sea Emperor. "Although I haven't seen their battle, I know that Boyi has a chance to win no matter how strong his opponent is. Sea Emperor, you probably haven't seen the limits of Boyi's strength yet, have you?"
"Although Boyi has not yet shown where his strength bottom line is, he is only Second Sequence Celestial God, while the Fourth Elder is Third Sequence Celestial God and has Lord-level inheritance..." The Sea Emperor still did not think highly of Boyi, because the Combat Strength that the Fourth Elder Du Kao had shown before was too strong.
On the battlefield, Boyi and Du Kao were locked in a standoff.
"I must say, you're quite loyal, even though you knew I deliberately appeared on their battlefield to lure you out and fight me." Du Kao's lips curled up slightly. At first, he was actually a little unsure whether Boyi would turn back to rescue Weeks.
"I must admit, your ability to conceal yourself is remarkable. You followed me all the way, and I didn't even notice you were there." Boyi appeared calm, but he was actually quite surprised, because he hadn't realized he was being followed until Du Kao revealed himself.
"No matter how well I concealed my presence, I still couldn't find any opportunity for you to reveal a weakness, so I couldn't make a move. Actually, I knew you were no ordinary person the moment I saw you. That's why I waited until you left before I was willing to fight that magma monster with all my might. The longer I followed you, the more I realized that you were definitely not someone to be underestimated." Du Kao had obviously also noticed Boyi's special qualities and did not underestimate his opponent. His regard for Boyi was even greater than that for Moffitt before.
Upon hearing Du Kao's words, Boyi laughed, "I'm just an ordinary nobody, yet I'm so flattered to be valued so highly by the reincarnation of Lord-level powerhouse like you.
"You overheard my conversation with that magma monster?!" Du Kao was somewhat surprised that his identity had been exposed.
"No, I've never stooped to petty theft," Boyi said, shaking his head. "I know your identity because I can see the remnants of your past life on you."
"No wonder you always keep your eyes closed and can see the chains of past lives. Your eyes must be one of the Twelve Dreamlike Eyes, right? It seems the person who trained you was truly generous, willing to transplant such eyes into you." As Du Kao spoke these words, his vigilance increased significantly. The Twelve Dreamlike Eyes are twelve exceptionally powerful special eyes in the Main Plane. Each possesses terrifying abilities.
"You're mistaken about my eyes. My pupils don't belong to any of the Twelve Dreamlike Eyes, nor were they transplanted. My pupils are called the Causality Eye, and I was the first owner of these eyes." Boyi's explanation completely refuted Du Kao's previous guess.
"It seems I truly underestimated your backing. You've actually managed to cultivate a new pair of Dream Pupil. This is far more sophisticated than simply transplanting Dream Pupil directly. Unfortunately, your eyes are destined to be used for a future purpose. After killing you, I will transplant your Dream Pupil onto myself. Before the host becomes a main god, they haven't reached maturity, making it the optimal time for transplantation. With these Dream Pupil, once I recover my former cultivation, I'll be able to stand proudly among the lords." While Du Kao maintained a strong sense of vigilance towards Boyi's eyes, he also displayed a great deal of possessiveness. With Boyi's eyes, his Combat Strength would significantly increase once he recovered his lord-level cultivation.
"You have a good idea, but you won't have the chance," Boyi shook his head. "Do you know what the greatest special ability of my eyes is?"
"Tell me about it." Du Kao was clearly determined to get to know Boyi's eyes and didn't want to miss any opportunity to understand them.
"Since my eyes are called the Causality Eye, their greatest function is naturally to trace cause and effect." Boyi didn't seem to have any intention of fighting the other party immediately. "In your case, what I see is that you were killed and completely vanished, and even your inheritance was taken away."
"You think I'd believe that?!" Du Kao naturally didn't believe Boyi's words. He thought Boyi was just saying it on purpose to confuse him and find a weakness in his mind.
"Believe it or not, even if you knew, you couldn't change the outcome," Boyi said, shrugging.
"You're quite adept at trash talk, a childish game. Enough with the chit-chat, let's settle this with a fight!" Du Kao remained unmoved by Boyi's words, a long, cyan sword rapidly materializing in his hand. He gripped the hilt, the tip slightly raised, aiming at Boyi not far away.
Boyi also lightly flicked a thin rope on his shoulder, and the rope automatically broke apart. The paper umbrella behind him was now in his hand, unnoticed.
Almost at the same moment the umbrella handle touched my palm, the white paper umbrella changed color again, turning red, orange, yellow, and green several times in succession, finally becoming the blue of the sky before the rain.
The paper umbrella was opened, Boyi simply held it up casually, as if it were a rainy day with the tip of the umbrella pointing towards the sky.
A cyan blade, a cyan umbrella, and a hazy cyan void left behind after the battle Weeks and Odoqi. The two stood facing each other, motionless, but everyone who saw this scene knew that a storm was about to break... (To be continued~^~)
