Fish That Slipped Through the Net

Boom!

Boom!

Lynn wielded his longsword, his body turning into a blur as he repeatedly clashed with the Unicorn Strongman.

Explosive booms of weapons colliding rang out across the fighting platform from time to time.

The Unicorn Strongman cultivated the Earth Law. Although he had comprehended all six profound mysteries, he was most proficient in the Power of Life and the Profound Mystery of Strength. His material attacks were powerful, and his material defense was equally formidable.

On the other hand, his grasp of the soul path was quite ordinary. Lynn estimated that if he used a soul attack, he could kill him in a single move.

Of course, Lynn did not use a soul attack to kill him outright. Instead, he relied on his speed to circle around him.

Lightning Element excelled in speed and attack!

Moreover, over the past dozen years, Lynn had Devoured several hundred earth, fire, water, and fire Demigod sparks. Whether in strength or physical toughness, he was now no weaker than a Highgod.

With material attacks alone, he was more than capable of dealing with the Unicorn Strongman.

After fighting for a while, Lynn saw that the Unicorn Strongman kept repeating the same few moves and finally lost interest in continuing.

His figure suddenly accelerated. Like lightning, he appeared at the Unicorn Strongman's side in a single flash, then viciously kicked him in the shoulder, sending him crashing into the fighting platform like a falling meteor!

The tremendous impact made the entire arena tremble!

Cough, cough! The Unicorn Strongman climbed from the ground, his face pale and blood flowing continuously from the corner of his mouth. "Such a powerful material attack! And his speed is too fast! I can't see his movements at all!"

"Do you still want to fight?" Lynn looked at him coldly.

The Unicorn Strongman immediately shouted, "I concede! I concede!"

As the Unicorn Strongman conceded, a voice rang out above the arena. "Lynn wins!"

"Lynn!"

"Lynn!"

The many deities watching in the arena erupted in excitement, shouting Lynn's name one after another.

Amid the deities' cheers, Lynn returned to the spectator area through the passage below.

"As expected, combat is the fastest way to cultivate!" Lynn sat cross-legged, reflecting on the battle just now. He gained several new insights into the fusion of Flash and Lightning Element.

Meanwhile, another battle began on the fighting platform...

On the first day, Lynn fought only three matches!

In the second match, his opponent was a Highgod who cultivated the Path of Destruction. Lynn fought him for a while and, relying on his superior speed, completely toyed with him before easily defeating him with a material attack.

However, this battle against the Destruction Highgod gave Lynn a preliminary understanding of the concept of the Lightning Element's Power of Destruction. If he wished, he could begin comprehending the Power of Destruction at any time.

This was not strange. The seven Element Laws and four Supreme Edicts were interconnected to begin with!

Of course, Lynn had no such plans for the time being. He would wait until he had fused the three profound mysteries of Lightning Element, Flash, and Power of Judgment before comprehending the Power of Destruction.

He intended to comprehend and fuse them simultaneously, breaking through to become a Highgod while fusing all the profound mysteries and becoming a Paragon Highgod!

In the third match, Lynn's opponent was Alipa, the effeminate Highgod who used a broadsword. As a cultivator of the Water Element Law, he was naturally not skilled in speed, and his speed was completely incapable of catching up to Lynn.

Yet when Lynn attacked, he seized the chance to unleash that soul-rippling attack again. This angered Lynn, who directly struck him with a Purple-Green Electric Serpent, causing him to fall on the spot.

His Divine Artifact, divine spark, and Spatial Ring all became Lynn's spoils of war.

While Lynn was fighting, two Highgods from the Four Divine Beast Families entered the spectator stands. As they searched for seats, they chatted quietly.

"I never expected the Talin Family's patriarch to be so cunning! Knowing that our Four Divine Beast Families were going to act against them, he actually secretly let his son slip away beforehand!" one of the deities said indignantly.

That day, Makram had led the Four Divine Beast Families' experts to wipe out the Talin Family, killing every member of the Talin Family, yet they had failed to find the token they sought.

Afterward, Makram mobilized the full power of the Four Divine Beast Families and finally discovered that the Talin Family had one fish that had slipped through the net. He immediately ordered all the Four Divine Beast Families' forces on the Muya Continent to search for that survivor's whereabouts.

But after searching for more than a decade, they had not even found a trace of him.

"Yeah! Who knows where that kid is hiding?" the other deity complained helplessly. "Lord Makram told us to find him, and now we barely have any time left for cultivation. Who knows whether he's even still on the Muya Continent!"

Hearing this, the first deity immediately lowered his voice. "You dare complain about Lord Makram's orders!"

As if recalling something, he said with lingering fear, "You know what his methods are like. Last time, Sharav..."

"Eh!" A startled cry from beside him interrupted his words.

"What is it?" He turned to look, only to find his companion staring intently at the battle on the fighting platform. He looked over as well and saw two deities locked in combat.

One cultivated the Water Element Law, while the other cultivated the Lightning Law.

Boom!

Just as he watched, a lightning serpent suddenly shot from the eyes of the deity cultivating the Lightning Law. It was so fast that his opponent had no time to react before it struck directly into the effeminate youth's body. The effeminate youth's body trembled slightly before he collapsed limply to the ground, never making another sound.

"What a powerful soul attack!" he praised.

"No!" His companion's voice turned urgent. "Look at his weapon—that black longsword!"

"Weapon?" The god froze, then looked at the Black Longsword in the lightning-element god's hand. "This is? Could it be...?"

He grew excited as well, but his companion's words confirmed his suspicion. "This is the longsword used by that escaped fish from the Talin Family!"

"If this man is using his weapon, he must be connected to him!"

"That's enough for today! As expected, fighting opponents of the same rank is far faster than silently cultivating and comprehending the Laws on my own!" After checking the Effeminate Youth's Spatial Ring, Lynn revealed a satisfied smile. The other party had provided him with another three billion-plus Ink Stones.

However, he no longer cared much about that amount of wealth. What truly delighted him was that his approach had worked.

After only three battles, although he still could not make much sense of the fusion of the three profound mysteries, he had once again gained a much deeper understanding of the fusion between Flicker and the Lightning Element.

Those three battles today were worth more than ten days of secluded cultivation.
