However, Old Wang's relentless attacks made some people sense something was amiss.

Judging from that earth-shattering attack at the beginning, this person should be more skilled in ranged attacks.

Why does he only use his spear to charge in and not even use a single ranged skill?

Old Wang quickly answered their questions after dealing with another wave of Waterflow Monster.

After watching their Freeze corpses decompose, Old Wang nodded, feeling that it was about time!

He then landed on the water's surface again, and Magic Energy began to gather on his spear, causing the blue light of the water-attribute Orb on it to radiate.

Old Wang looked at the Waterflow Behemoth rushing towards him, slammed his spear down heavily, and said:

"Certainly!"

The Cloud Dream Marshland, which had spread for 500 miles, was instantly frozen, turning into a kingdom of ice and snow.

Because its domain was frozen, the Lord of the Marshland revealed its true form, which turned out to be a Mutant Carp with a pure white body.

"How did you do that?"

The giant carp floated in the air and looked at Old Wang, its eyes full of doubt, but without any panic.

"Guess!" Old Wang said calmly, standing in the snow-covered landscape.

"I know! It was those Water Beast you killed. You injected them with a large amount of icy Magic Energy, and then you detonated them in an instant! Right?" The Great Carp, the Lord of the Marshland, suddenly said, his eyes gleaming with golden light.

"You got it right! Here's a grilled carp for you!" Old Wang said, then vanished from his spot and reappeared before the Lord of the Marshland.

The spear that Lao Naiser had conjured shimmered with Thunderbolt energy as it thrust towards the face of the Lord of the Marshland.

The Lord of the Marshland did not move, but instead summoned streams of Water Shield to defend himself.

It doesn't rely on speed to its advantage, so running won't help.

After Old Wang's spear Water Shield, the power of Thunderbolt on it erupted at full force.

A bolt of Thunderbolt enveloped the giant carp, destroying the ice thousands of meters behind it.

But the Lord of the Marshland was unharmed when it was hit head-on. With a shake of its body, four Waterflow Giant Python pounced on the Old Wang.

Old Wang swept his spear horizontally with one hand, the power of Thunderbolt flashing as he shattered two of them. Then, with his other hand, two beams of Plasma shot out, shattering the other two.

While Old Wang was dealing with the Waterflow Giant Python, the Lord of the Marshland did not stop his actions.

With a sweep of its massive tail, the ice beneath it instantly vanished, turning back into a swamp.

It then leaped into it, and the entire Freeze Cloud Dream Marshland instantly thawed, with all the icy Magic Power being absorbed by the other party.

As Old Wang watched the other person disappear again, he released all his Mental Power, trying to find its location.

But at that moment, the giant carp head of the Lord of the Marshland suddenly appeared below it, and Old Wang's Mental Power could not sense it.

It opened its huge mouth, and the icy energy it had just absorbed transformed into a beam of icy blue light that shot straight into the sky. Old Wang narrowly dodged it.

"Can the water and fog in this swampy land really block mental perception?" Old Wang muttered to himself as he watched the other person disappear again.

The Legendary Ninth Rank Lord of the Marshland the Old Wang encountered after entering the Legendary, not only because of its extremely high rank, but also because it was incredibly cunning.

Despite possessing such formidable strength, his fighting style is so cowardly; he seems to be a master of the art of survival!

Just as Old Wang was sighing, ten more streams of water shot towards him, but Old Wang no longer intended to dodge.

He can't win if he's always being led by the nose; he needs to find his own rhythm.

The Yin Shield of the Yin-Yang Taiji Shield was summoned, and the damage from the water flow was completely negated by Old Wang.

Although these water jets kill enemies with high-speed impacts, they are indeed magical abilities, and all magic is immune to the Yin Shield.

Old Wang, shielded by the Yin Shield, arrived above the swamp. Lao Naiser transformed his spear into a staff, pointed it at the sky, and shouted:

"Thundercloud!"

Dark clouds immediately gathered over the entire marshland, pressing down on the city as if the sky were collapsing.

The next moment, Thunderbolt rained down on the marshland. The Lord of the Marshland tried to interrupt the Old Wang with his Water Beast, but they were all immune to the Yin Shield.

"What kind of treasure is this? It can actually grant immunity to Legendary Ninth Rank magic!"

"Don't forget that the six-winged race member crashed directly into this shield and died!"

"That's practically cheating!"

"His weapon is very powerful too!"

Just as the spectators were marveling at the luxurious equipment Old Wang was wearing, the Lord of the Marshland suddenly leaped out of the water and used Water Splash on Old Wang.

The Lord of the Marshland was not a Magikarp; its Water Splash could be harmful. Its enormous body crashed heavily into the Old Wang like a comet.

On the other side, Old Wang was controlling the Thundercloud, seemed to have been caught off guard and was knocked away, suffering severe injuries.

Its charge attack deals physical damage, and the Yin-Yang Taiji Shield caused Old Wang to take double the damage.

This single attack completely depleted Old Wang's Mana Bar and reduced his health to below one-third.

However, Old Wang did not panic. He steadied himself, used a Holy Light to fully restore his health, and then dodged the water stream that was chasing him.

Then Lao Naiser transformed his staff into a bow and fired Elemental Treasure Arrow towards the swamp below.

This seemingly casually fired arrow forced the Lord of the Marshland to summon a shield to block it.

The Elemental Piercing Arrow pierced its shield, but fortunately it reacted quickly and avoided a fatal blow. However, the Elemental Piercing Arrow still grazed its body, causing its scales to sting painfully.

It initially thought the attack was a coincidence, but when the opponent's second and third arrows were all fired at it, which was hidden in the swamp, it knew that its invisibility had been broken.

As the Lord of the Marshland emerged from the water, he summoned a massive Waterflow Vortex that knocked down Old Wang's two elemental arrows. Then, he began to confront Old Wang in the sky.

"How did you break my invisibility?" the Lord of the Marshland asked the Old Wang in the sky, puzzled.

"You guess!"

Lord of the Marshland: "..."

"I bet you'll kiss me~!"

It panicked! It panicked! Old Wang's "Guess What?" had broken its defenses!

In his desperation, the Lord of the Marshland unleashed the full power of the Legendary Ninth Rank, and a gigantic Divine Dragon appeared in the sky above the Cloud Dream Marshland.

The Divine Dragon's form was hidden in the clouds, its head and tail never seen. As the Lord of the Marshland Energy Burst, the Divine Dragon opened its massive mouth, and Water Element energy began to gather within it.

Feeling the terrifying energy contained in this attack, Old Wang had no doubt that it was a strike capable of Annihilation Stars.

However, it was precisely because of the powerful energy contained in this attack that Old Wang burst out laughing.

A burst of multicolored light from the Elemental Domain erupted from Old Wang, enveloping the Lord of the Marshland who was gathering his strength.

The Lord of the Marshland, who was gathering his strength, suddenly discovered that the Water Element had turned its back on him, although he quickly regained it.

However, the World-Destroying Magic that was gathering power could no longer be stabilized because its elemental structure had been forcibly altered.

The magic it intended to use against its enemy exploded above its own head, the powerful energy shock shattering its shield and striking its body directly.

The onlookers saw a burst of azure energy erupt in the center of the Cloud Dream Marshland, engulfing the entire marshland.

Some people who were closer also suffered undeserved calamity. Before they could even react, Legendary High-Tier were instantly reduced to ashes, while even those at the high level were severely injured.

After the explosion, Yunmeng Marsh was shattered, and the domain of the Lord of the Marshland disappeared, replaced by a huge, bottomless crater.

A figure stood floating in the center of the deep pit; it was Old Wang, despite being at the epicenter of the explosion, had become immune to damage thanks to his Annihilation Armor.

He frowned, sensing the Elemental Mark that had struck the Lord of the Marshland when he was hit.

"It's still alive? I should have flown closer to it back then, maybe I could have killed it outright!"

Unfortunately, there's no such thing as knowing beforehand. The Lord of the Marshland, covered in wounds and even missing half his body, slowly flew up, his eyes turning bloodshot as he looked at Old Wang.

Then its hideous wounds began to heal, and half of its body began to recover. Originally in the form of a fish, it grew hands and feet and became a Fish Demon with a carp's head.

This is the result of it burning its own Legend Heart Core; it's trying to take Old Wang down with it.

At this point, those new to the Epic might have to avoid its brilliance, for this is the last glorious moment of its life.

Old Wang grinned as he looked at it. "I wasn't afraid of you when you were at your peak, but now that your domain is shattered Core Heart has burned away, turning you into an Intelligence monster, why would I be afraid?"

Just kidding! Then Old Wang took out an Orb and crushed it.

The next moment, the Lord of the Marshland appeared in front of him, intending to Claw Strike, but Old Wang's figure disappeared before him.

Only the Lord of the Marshland remained, roaring in frustration.

Old Wang... ran away!
