Right now, Hong, who had just dealt with a group of people, has also spotted Savage approaching from a distance.
He was focused, mentally reviewing all the information about the Savage, while the spear in his hand trembled with a peculiar rhythm.
A Spirit Reader stood between the two of them, thinking the Savage was after him, and suddenly sprang into action, his psychic weapons surging towards the Savage like a tidal wave.
"Boom!"
A violent burst of air exploded, and the Savage actually cleaved all the telekinetic weapons in half with a single blow, displaying overwhelming power.
"Take this!" The burly, unruly Savage roared, his bare horns stomping two large craters into the sturdy arena. He instantly shot hundreds of meters forward, arriving in front of the Spirit Reader.
The knife in his hand slashed directly at the Spirit Reader with a fierce attack. The Spirit Reader seemed not to have expected his psychic weapon to be destroyed so easily. He was shocked and tried to dodge, but it was too late.
"Bang!"
A short sword slashed down on the arena, unleashing a massive, unstoppable flash of light!
Like a bolt of Heaven Opening, it cleaved the Spirit Reader, who couldn't dodge in time, and the flying mental weapon beneath his feet in two—a domineering and unparalleled strike!
"Hahaha! You're asking for death, daring to block my way!" The Savage continued forward with his bare feet, his eyes never leaving Hong!
How could the others not know that the Savage's target was Hong?
Their eyes met in mid-air, sparking a palpable tension. Everyone around them instinctively moved away, afraid of being caught in the crossfire. As for the unfortunate Spirit Reader, who cared who he was?
A dead genius is worthless; it's just that he wasn't very bright. Out of a hundred peerless geniuses on the entire arena, none dared to challenge this Savage!
" Savage, we have no reason to fight. This arena can hold ten people. There's no need to fight!" Hong warned, simultaneously opening his domain and raising his vigilance to the highest level.
"Haha, during the qualifiers, a guy named Thunder God escaped from me, which really annoyed me. He told me there was someone who could easily take me down, and later I checked the information and found out you're with Thunder God!"
The burly, savage Savage revealed a wild smile, like a top hunter surveying his prey, his eyes brimming with predatory intent.
In the audience, Thunder God's expression changed. "Damn it, I've dragged Brother Hong into this. The Savage have actually set their sights on him."
"This guy is so strong, how come he didn't qualify as the World Zone one? What's he doing here in the arena? I just ran in front of him, is it really necessary to hold such a grudge?"
"This is the Savage! He's even more domineering in person than in the movies." Luo Feng's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Although the Savage was ferocious, Luo Feng was confident that he was no less powerful than him. In a real fight, the outcome was uncertain.
"He has already stepped into the threshold of the Earth Origin Law and comprehended the secret method of fusing the Origin Law. His defensive power is still unknown, but his attack is extremely strong. Just now, the opposing Spirit Reader had already used a defensive secret method, but he still managed to cut him down with one strike."
"That's really domineering!" Zhang Junbao's eyes gleamed; he was equally interested in such an opponent.
" Junbao, does Brother Hong have any hope of defeating him?" Thunder God asked anxiously.
"It's hard to say. Even if Hong pulls him into the illusion, he might not be able to break through his defense. His attack and defense are both extremely strong, making him a true opponent who has restrained Hong."
However, defeating Hong unscathed won't be easy. This is the strongest opponent Hong has faced since entering the universe; it all depends on how he performs.
Zhang Junbao dared not make a definitive conclusion. Hong's problem was that his attack power was slightly insufficient. He lacked an absolutely powerful attack that could directly penetrate the enemy's defense. When he encountered an opponent like Savage, he was severely restrained.
At this moment, Hong also exuded a powerful aura no weaker than that of the Savage, causing the Savage's pupils to shrink from their initial mocking attitude.
Slaughter, rage, coldness, light, hope, and rebirth—two completely different auras emanated from Hong. His eyes were devoid of joy or sorrow, like those of a god who had witnessed all the joys and sorrows of the world and the changing times.
At this moment, the Savage felt a sense of worship that he had only experienced when he was weak and saw an Immortal God, which made him lose his senses for a moment.
"Bite!"
Hong's spear tip plunged fiercely towards the Savage's head. In the most critical moment, the Savage instinctively raised his short knife to block Hong's attack.
Having missed his target, Hong immediately fled, and the Savage also regained his senses, a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Hong! You actually managed to pull me into an illusion and spy on my mind! You deserve to die! You deserve to die!" The Savage roared incessantly, like an ancient Wargod, his violent aura sweeping across the entire arena. Instantly, the other geniuses in the chaos were also frightened by his imposing presence and fled one after another.
"This Savage has gone mad! He's started indiscriminately slaughtering people!"
"It's all because of that Hong. He angered the Savage, and now he's disappeared without a trace."
Using the Law of Light, Hong completely disappeared from the arena. The Savage couldn't find him for a moment and began a frenzied massacre.
"Kill them all. Once you've reduced the number of people in the arena to ten, the match will be over. I'll reappear then." In a shadowy, broken corner of the arena, Hong hid.
"This Savage is terrifying. Even Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast, once pulled into the illusion, couldn't escape so easily. Yet he broke free so quickly and even blocked my attack."
However, I do lack a decisive attack method. Although the power of the Law of Light is incredibly strange, I have not yet mastered a secret technique that can deliver a powerful attack.
"Once they break free of my illusion, that will be a big problem."
"Surround and kill him!"
"Let's join forces and kill him!" Shouts echoed continuously from the arena.
The Savage was like a tiger among sheep, utterly fearless. Despite having so many geniuses, none could withstand a single blow from him.
"Hahaha... Hahaha... Die, all of you die!" The Savage's aura was extremely domineering. Just standing there, he exuded an invisible pressure that made the other geniuses dare not move.
"One's aura can reflect one's character to a certain extent. Back on Earth, some top-tier powerhouses could intimidate their enemies with their aura, rendering them unable to move."
"I never expected that even though everyone here has the physical attributes of Star Level Ninth Stage, this Savage could still intimidate the other geniuses with his aura. Just how strong is his willpower? No wonder he broke free from my illusion so quickly."
Living things have an aura!
If an aura is strong enough to be easily felt by others, then it can be called an imposing presence.
Strong will and strength can create an aura. Ancient generals, when they stood there, often exuded an aura of authority that commanded respect without anger. This invisible pressure caused people to feel intimidated and unable to exert their full strength. This is what is meant by aura.
fighting!
It's about the belief and will to fight!
By using overwhelming force to instill fear in the opponent, one can negatively impact their morale. This, of course, is advantageous in battle!
Hong kept changing positions, using the figures of others to find a breakthrough in the Savage's momentum. Hong also knew very well that he had no chance of winning if he directly confronted the Savage face to face. Knowing how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and go with the flow is also one of the essential qualities of a strong person.
But at that moment, Hong suddenly sensed a crisis.
A slash tore through the darkness, shattering the rocks where he was hiding.
"So it really was you hiding here! Humph, you treacherous fellow!"
Hong looked closely and saw that it was a fierce female warrior dressed in armor. Apart from the most dazzling Savage on the entire arena, her performance was the most formidable.
This woman had a stunning figure, but her eyes were filled with murderous intent. The ferocity in her eyes and the swiftness with which she killed made it impossible to believe she was a woman!
Hong knew he was in trouble. If he got entangled with this woman, the Savage would soon come looking for him. Facing both the Savage and this woman at the same time, Hong had no chance of winning.
The fierce female warrior didn't care about anything else; she was so interested in Hong's fighting style that she pounced on him.
Seeing the beautiful woman throwing herself into his arms, Hong's expression changed. With high spirits, he thrust his spear at the female warrior like a dragon emerging from the water.
To deal with this fierce woman, Hong couldn't find any weakness in her mind in a short time; the only way was to subdue her with overwhelming power.
The woman was surrounded by wisps of green energy that swirled around two curved blades. She wielded the blades, striking the edge of Hong's spearhead directly, and an invisible, eerie rotating force was transmitted to the spear.
"Hmm? Similar to Junbao's rounded and gentle strength, she has already comprehended the Water Origin Law."
The female warrior launched a frenzied attack on Hong, and in an instant, Hong seemed to be caught in a whirlpool of floodwaters.
"When it comes to softness and strength, you're far inferior to Junbao. Follow me and spin around!"
The female warrior hadn't expected that Hong's spear was both flexible and resilient. As Hong launched his attack, the spear stirred up a vortex, actually causing the woman's body to spin on its own.
Get out of here!
Faced with the rounded and gentle essence of the Law of Water, one must either be incredibly hard, enduring its impact without being moved, or one must be even more flexible than it.
Although Hong did not understand the Law of Water, he was extremely familiar with Junbao's domain and had naturally considered ways to deal with it.
The female warrior, Nei Hong, was sent flying into the crowd with a single spear thrust. Just as she was about to charge back, a ferocious figure appeared in front of her.
"Hong, why don't you run!" The Savage grinned cruelly, his ferocious aura scattering the people around him.
"This is really tough. Why are they all targeting me like this, one after another?"
The Savage's eyes burned with fighting spirit as he slashed down with his War Blade, cleaving Hong's body in two.
"Hahaha..."
Before he could even laugh out loud, he felt a sharp pain under his armpit. It was another illusion, which brought the Savage's rage to its peak!
He'd been tricked by Hong again!
"My full-force attack couldn't even break through his physical defenses. This guy definitely has other hidden defensive techniques!" Hong Tong shrank back, but it was too late to dodge.
"Die!" The Savage's face was contorted with rage as he slashed at Hong with lightning speed.
He never expected that Hong would repeatedly break through his will and pull him into the illusion.
If I hadn't been on guard and constantly used defensive techniques to protect my body, Hong might have actually succeeded.
This time, after the Savage broke free from the illusion, his eyes were blood red, and his powerful will prevented Hong from invading.
With a lightning-fast slash, Hong could only react hastily.
"Hahaha..." The Savage laughed loudly, showing no fear of Hong's spear tip. Relying on his superior defensive techniques, he directly traded his life for Hong's.
Hong's spear tip touched the Savage's throat, causing a spray of blood, but his body was cleaved in two by the Savage along with the spear.
The blade was as swift as lightning, its momentum unstoppable.
Hong was ultimately no match for the Savage and was defeated.
