AST 2357 - The Water Emperor VS . The Ghost King



After all was said and done, strength spoke the loudest .

Qing Shui and Nalan Qing stood in the middle, occasionally feeling the movements of the crowd around them . Very quickly, a barely visible layer of light appeared, shrouding the entire area . At this moment, this area had already become an independent space . The sound here will not be transmitted out and the energy here will not spread outside .  

“Nalan Jian, you are still as strong as ever . However, you are wrong to think that you only need to use strength to suppress us . We also have some strong individuals here that are the same level as you,” Bei Yuan Cao said, his smile full of deceit . It also seemed cunning, just like a fox .

“Who is the one responsible for the poisoning?” The Water Emperor was the nation’s emperor . Though he was temperamental at times, he could be calm in needed times and would not fret over small things . Moreover, the situation now was a lot better than before .  

“How was your poisoning cured? Is it convenient to talk about it now?” A gloomy voice boomed out .  

Following the voice, an old man walked out, all clad in black . He was thin and bony, with a pair of deep eyes—eyes which were layers of sullenness over sullenness . His inhuman-like appearance left everyone shocked .  

An image of a white skeleton was embroidered on his black clothes . It was incomparably strange . His hands held a pure white bone weapon .  

“Looks like you are the one responsible for the poisoning . What a great method!” The Water Emperor gave him a sharp look . So it was this man who harmed him, so much so that his family was almost destroyed and he himself almost killed . He would be lying if he said he did not hate him . He had already made up his mind: This man was going to die .

“I was not successful in my first attempt . I can tell that someone cured you of your poisoning . I’m curious as to what kind of person could cure the wrath of the Immortal Powder? I really want to have a look . ” The Ghost King said to the Water Emperor .  



“I’ll wait till you’re on your deathbed . Then, I shall let you know,” The Water Emperor replied indifferently before pulling out his golden sword, which was also known as the Emperor’s Sword .

This weapon was a relatively good one, and could only be used after one had gained the title of Emperor . The power it wielded was not bad, and could be classified as a weapon of imperial power . This imperial power was not the kind that could destroy lands and wipe out all existence . It simply commanded the respect of all .

It was as if the Ghost King had no qualms about the Water Emperor . He said lightly, “I’ll just capture you first and we’ll talk later . ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved the bone in his hand and like a ghost, he advanced quickly before disappearing .  

Many people could not see him, including Qing Shui . However, in the blink of an eye, Qing Shui’s Heavenly Vision Technique was activated and he was able to locate where the Ghost King was .  

Hah!

The Water Emperor gave a loud shout with an untouchable regal aura . A mystical force enveloped the surroundings . The Ghost King, however, was already three meters away from the Water Emperor . He used this chance to raise the bone in his hand and strike .

A simple blow, but the effects were immediate . So quick that many could not keep up with their eyes .

Ding!



The sword in the Emperor’s hand had blocked this hit, but that bone weapon made of god-knows-what was too hard and strong, remaining undamaged despite a direct collision . The Ghost King’s arm was retracted for a brief moment before extending out again, waving his bone weapon for yet another hit .  

The hit was direct, but it was as if the power of the blow became even stronger . It did not seem to be any simple bone, but one that could collapse the heavens .

Heavenly Dao!


The Ghost King’s Heavenly Dao Realm was stronger than that of the Water Emperor’s . He had used this to suppress the Water Emperor, guaranteeing his position of invincibility and the inevitable defeat of the Water Emperor .

Qing Shui frowned . He thought that helping them to cure the poison was enough and everything would be a smooth journey from there . Looking at the circumstances now, it seemed like his plans could not keep up with the changes .  

The sword in the Water Emperor’s hands suddenly erupted with a strong halo of light—the Emperor’s power .  

A strong wave of power burst from the Emperor’s body and he seemed to grow in size . Most importantly, the Emperor now resembled a small mountain, reducing the distance between the Ghost King and him .  

All emperors and kings had a unique regality about them, able to negate the effects of suppression . Though this effect was constant and not exceptional, it was very effective in leveling the playing field . The downside was that it could never be used to gain an advantage .

Thump… Thump . . .

The initial clear and melodious collisions turned dull and the opposing parties fought till they were on equal footing .  

The Ghost King’s bone weapon became a shadow that loomed over the whole sky . Like a fast-flowing river, it rushed to toward the Water Emperor . If it was Qing Shui, he could use his Heavenly Vision Technique to see what was approaching him . However, the Water Emperor did not have this power . Nonetheless, if the Water Emperor could reach this level, he could probably find his own way to block the incoming attack .  

Close the sword!

The Water Emperor’s sword immediately retracted before the sharp tip protruded out, causing the surroundings to be blinded by a bright light . The light surrounded the Emperor and enveloped him . At the same time, the bone weapon tried to deliver a hit toward the Emperor but clashed with the Emperor’s sword instead, casting a shimmering golden ray of light .  

Qing Shui knew that both parties were now on equal footing and it would not be easy to distinguish a winner or a loser . Both of them were beings that had unsurmountable experience .  

“Water Emperor, you forgot that I am a master of poison . If I use poisoning techniques, I would easily defeat you . ” the Ghost King taunted his opponent .  

“Bring it on!” The Water Emperor’s eyes were shining brilliantly . He was not scared . He might even be excited .  

“Then you’ll get a taste of this Magic Fog!” Right after he spoke, a cruel smile extended across his face . The surroundings then turned foggy and a poisonous-smelling gas rapidly diffused in the air .  

To be on the safe side, Qing Shui cast an Area Dominance shield on the Water Emperor .

It was still foggy, but the Water Emperor seemed to be in a pure ground; the fog would immediately dissipate upon contacting him .  

Seeing this, the Ghost King was in a state of shock . Even though he knew that the Water Emperor was mighty, he himself had his own set of skills . He waved his bone weapon and sent a long skeleton dragon hovering around them, exuding chilly bouts of air .  

A crystal-like armor then appeared on the Water Emperor’s body, making him greater and more powerful . A sea started to form around him . He was also gradually getting stronger and stronger .  

The strength and capacity of the Water nation!

The Ghost King’s face became solemn before taking out a pill and swallowing it . The tooth necklace on his chest started to emit a bright white light . This was a necklace made up out of teeth of many different beastly creatures . The different teeth contained the essence of each creature, each with their own unique skills . This necklace was made up of a hundred different teeth . A special way was used to string them together to provide the wearer with the essence of the creatures and to provide the wearer with temporary strength .

The skeleton dragon was flying around, roaring non-stop at the Water Emperor .  

There was also a massive Water Dragon beside the Water Emperor that sprayed clouds . It kept colliding with the skeleton dragon, spraying out giant torrents of water .  

The Water Emperor could get replenishment from the “large sea” below him while the Ghost King could do the same using his tooth necklace, and had the aid of pills . Once again, the battle was in a deadlock . In the middle, the Ghost King had tried using his poisoning techniques, but none of them had worked . This made him feel uneasy .  

The Water Emperor had on him stashes of strong antidotes . Even though the antidote pills were small, they were extremely effective . Additionally, he had the Area Dominance shield that Qing Shui had cast on him . This had rendered the Ghost King’s poisons useless .
