Patur's thoughts were naturally unknown to others.

Everyone present was focused on the battle taking place in mid-air.

Trevor looked at Andres and sighed inwardly, "For Andres, Abad should be the most troublesome opponent."

Andres quickly realized why the attack was ineffective.

"In that case, we'll have to use a new technique."

After mastering the Profound Mystery fusion of "fast" and "slow," Andres hadn't had a chance to test his new moves yet, but he already had an idea in mind.

After all, Linley's ascension to godhood in the original work relied on the Profound Mystery fusion of "fast" and "slow," and he could certainly learn from Linley's techniques.

"Andres, you're a genius. If I gave you more time, you might surpass me, but today, I'm the winner." Abad seemed to have no intention of dragging things out any longer.

He held the sword in both hands, and the flames around his body suddenly began to shrink, clinging tightly to his body and the giant sword in his hands. His body seemed to have turned into flames, no longer a fireball, but a man of fire.

Andres narrowed his eyes. Eight years ago, when Abad and Yasen sparred, Abad did not use this move.

He knew that this was probably a new tactic that Abad had developed over the years.

"Call"

Abad, carrying terrifying heat, attacked Andres.

Andres thrust his soft sword forward, unleashing countless strikes in an instant.

Countless sword shadows surged forth, billions of sword shadows converging together like a tidal river, like a hurricane storm, sweeping towards Abad.

"Sword Storm!"

The Saint Realm expert below were taken aback.

This is one of Yasen's moves. Eight years ago, Yasen used this move to defeat Abad.

"Andres has actually learned Lord Yasen's trick too!"

"Both he and Lord Yasen have grasped the Profound Mystery of Speed, so it's not surprising that they can use this move."

"But will this tactic work against Abad?"

"It was possible before, but now? I think it's difficult."

The Human Saint Realm were abuzz with discussion.

"Andres, Abad now is not the Abad of eight years ago. This trick may not work," Yasen thought to himself, not optimistic about Andres's move.

"Pfft pfft"

Countless sword shadows struck Abad, all passing through his body.

But this is not an afterimage of Abad; this is his true form.

The moment the sword flashed through Abad's body, Andres could see that Abad's body contained no flesh or bones, but only flames.

Abad's body was completely transformed into fire elemental.

Andres's thrusting sword was like piercing into flames, causing the flames to flicker but having little effect.

"Could this be Profound Mystery of the Fire Body Technique?" Andres wondered to himself.

Among the six Profound Mystery of the Fire Elemental Law, there is one called "Fire Body Technique Profound Mystery," which can transform the body into energy.

Besides the Fire Elemental Law, the Earth Law's "Earth Travel Technique" and the Wind Elemental Law's "Wind Travel Technique" Profound Mystery have similar effects.

Andres did not Lianhuo the Law Profundity, so he could not be sure whether Abad had comprehended the Profound Mysteries of "Fire Body Technique".

However, it is certain that ordinary attacks will have no effect on Abad.

"Andres, give up. Even Lord Yasen's Sword Storm can be withstood by me. If you want to defeat me, you will have to reach the bottleneck of the Profound Mystery of Speed like Lord Yasen and become Saint Realm Limit Expert!"

Abad was radiating intense heat, and the air around him seemed to distort.

He charged towards Andres amidst the Sword Storm unleashed by Andres, and brought his greatsword down with tremendous force!

"We won!" Patur's eyes lit up as he watched from below, while Inori's face turned pale instantly.

Yasen's robes fluttered without wind, as if he were ready to intervene.

"Boom"

Abad's greatsword slashed through the air, and enormous energy erupted from it, turning into blazing flames that turned half the sky red.

Andres' figure was completely engulfed in flames.

"Is it over? Where are the Andres?"

"Lord Yasen hasn't made a move yet, does that mean the battle is still undecided?"

The Saint Realm expert below all looked at Yasen, and then everyone froze.

Because Yasen's expression was as if he had seen something unbelievable.

Everyone was puzzled.

In mid-air, after Abad swung his sword, he showed no signs of victory; instead, his expression was more solemn than ever before.

He kept looking around, searching for something.

"I didn't feel like my sword hit me at all. Did he dodge it? How did he dodge it?"

Abad couldn't understand it. He frantically searched for Andres's figure, and then he realized something.

Andres's figure suddenly appeared behind Abad.

"Ah!"

Those watching below instinctively gasped in surprise.

"Trying to launch a sneak attack?"

Abad's face turned cold, and he swung his greatsword fiercely, a streak of fire flashing across the sky.

But this time, he missed again.

Andres moved like the wind, light and seemingly slow, yet he appeared a hundred meters away in an instant, easily dodging Abad's attack.

Then, in a flash, he reappeared behind Abad.

"What kind of speed is that?"

"I feel like he's even faster than Lord Yasen!"

The Saint Realm expert below were all dumbfounded.

Yasen was both surprised and delighted. He was surprised because Andres' strength far exceeded his expectations and was no weaker than him. He was delighted because the overall strength of the Human Race had greatly improved.

At the same time, he also had some doubts.

What he sensed from Andres' speed was more than just the Profound Mystery of "fast".

A flash of inspiration seemed to pass through his mind, but it vanished in an instant, and he couldn't grasp it.

"Boom"

In the air, Abad kept swinging his sword, and wherever the sword passed, flames raged wildly.

But all of them came to nothing.

Andres's figure moved freely, each flash covering hundreds of meters.

"This is the Essence of Speed!"

Andres felt extremely satisfied, and as he continued to use it, he became more and more proficient.

On the other hand, Abad's energy expenditure is increasing.

The outcome is decided.

The Saint Realm expert watching the battle could all see that the scales of victory had tipped in Andres.

"No, Lord Abad hasn't lost yet!" Patur's face was pale, his teeth clenched, still clinging to hope.

The other Saint Realm expert sighed when they saw his appearance.

Trevor couldn't help but comfort him, "Patur, we are already in the Saint Domain, beyond the mortal realm. The throne of a kingdom is nothing special."

"Shut up!" Patur yelled at Trevor.

Trevor's face immediately darkened.

His strength and experience far surpass Patur's, yet the other party was so rude.

"Forget it, Trevor, he's in a bad mood, don't take it to heart," the other Saint Domain quickly advised.

Trevor gave Patur a cold look and ignored him.
