Finally, the last shadow of Noah Shadow was shattered by Ulysses’ relentless attacks.
The duel platform and the air above it were void of Noah Shadow’s presence.
Ulysses, gripping his spiked club tightly, scanned his surroundings warily, knowing better than to believe he had defeated Noah Shadow.
Suddenly, about thirty meters behind Ulysses, the space rippled, and a black-robed figure emerged.
In a fit of rage, Ulysses turned abruptly and charged at Noah Shadow once more.
“You’ve lost,” Noah Shadow said with a cold sneer, forming a spell with his hands.
“Nether Fire, burn!”
As soon as Noah Shadow finished speaking, the Nether Fire on Ulysses’ wounds flared up intensely.
Under the burning of the Nether Fire, Ulysses’ entire body became extremely cold. His forward momentum halted, and his body stiffened.
“Mere Nether Fire, what can it do to me!” Ulysses roared angrily, his body glowing with a fiery red light as he resisted the black flames.
At that moment, Noah Shadow appeared in mid-air, a cold smile on his lips. He extended his pale right hand and removed the black eye patch from his right eye.
With the eye patch removed, a completely black eye was revealed to the spectators.
The black eye resembled a black glass bead.
Then, three white spirals appeared within the black eye, looking incredibly eerie.
Some lower-level cultivators felt a terrifying chill rise from their feet at that moment.
“Ghost Eye Technique, Nether Death Abyss,” Noah Shadow said emotionlessly as he looked at Ulysses struggling against the Nether Fire.
The white spirals in the black eye glowed faintly.
Ulysses’ face turned pale instantly. His eyes lost focus briefly, and then the scene before him changed suddenly. He found himself in a dim world.
In this dim world, terrifying and creepy laughter echoed around him.
Hundreds of horrifying Shade Souls appeared, clawing and rushing towards Ulysses.
Ulysses swung his spiked club at the approaching Shade Souls. Although they dispersed upon being struck, they quickly reformed and attacked him again.
In contrast to Ulysses’ struggle in the dim world, the spectators saw a different scene.
They saw Ulysses with vacant eyes and a fierce expression, swinging his spiked club wildly at empty air.
“This fool got trapped in the Ghost Eye Technique and can’t get out,” several geniuses from the Godsbane Dynasty remarked with grim expressions.
After using the Ghost Eye Technique, Noah Shadow put the black eye patch back on.
“It’s over,” Noah Shadow sneered, raising his right hand and slapping towards Ulysses from a distance.
Ulysses, who was swinging his spiked club wildly, was slapped off the duel platform.
Upon hitting the ground, Ulysses spat out a mouthful of blood and finally snapped out of the dim world.
Propping himself up from the ground, Ulysses wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Noah Shadow with a dark expression.
Meeting Ulysses’ gaze, Noah Shadow sneered, “What? Still not convinced? I could have killed you a hundred times just now. But in front of Pill Sovereign Senior, I spared your life.”
Feeling humiliated, Ulysses’ face turned even darker. Defeated, he silently returned to the Godsbane Dynasty’s ranks.
Ulysses’ defeat brought the most joy to the Martial Dynasty’s cultivators because Martial Dynasty and Godsbane Dynasty had always been arch-enemies.
Leo withdrew his gaze and said softly, “Noah Shadow didn’t fully utilize the power of his Ghost Eye Technique.”
In other words, Noah Shadow hadn’t used his full strength in his battle against Ulysses.
Hearing Leo’s words, Seraphina nodded in agreement.
“This gentleman wins,” announced the soul fragment of Ancient Tyrant Pill Sovereign above the alchemy furnace, pointing to Noah Shadow.
Noah Shadow cupped his fist towards Ancient Tyrant Pill Sovereign and then flashed to the white jade table.
Afterward, Noah Shadow’s left eye turned cold as he looked at Leo.
Leo did not avoid Noah Shadow’s gaze and met it directly.
“You must be the lord of Clearwind Town who defeated Gilberto in the Talisman Fight. Your combat strength is not weak. If there’s a chance, I would be very interested in sparring with you,” Noah Shadow said in a sinister tone.
Leo smiled coldly and replied, “I’m also very interested in your Ghost Eye Technique. Anytime.”
Around the small lake, the spectators began discussing again.
“Now it’s all Martial Dynasty people drinking spirit wine. It seems Martial Dynasty is rising.”
“Yes, I didn’t expect Martial Dynasty’s geniuses to be so formidable.”
“Don’t forget, that person in Martial Dynasty is not a genius.”
Hearing the discussions among many cultivators, several geniuses from Godsbane Dynasty all had dark expressions.
With a low growl, an incredibly tall and strong figure stepped forward.
In an instant, the tall figure flashed onto the duel platform.
The tall figure wore golden beast hide and had a large earring on one ear. His rough features and large copper-bell eyes occasionally flashed with domineering and ferocious intent.
“It’s Maverick!”
“Godsbane Dynasty’s number one, Maverick!”
“Maverick is stepping up. It looks like he’s going to reclaim honor for Godsbane Dynasty.”
Seeing Maverick’s figure clearly, many spectators showed a hint of fear in their eyes while also eagerly anticipating the upcoming battle.
Savage God Sect’s top genius Maverick was recognized as Godsbane Dynasty’s strongest. His reputation far surpassed other geniuses’, hinting at his potential to be the foremost among all four dynasties’ geniuses.
In the four dynasties, almost no cultivator hadn’t heard of his name.
“Cyrus, come out and fight,” Maverick’s large eyes fell on Cyrus as he spoke in a powerful and domineering voice.
Hearing Maverick’s words, Cyrus’ expression tightened briefly before a burning battle intent surged within him. “Maverick, I’ve longed to fight you for a long time.”
With that said, Cyrus stepped onto the duel platform.
“Cyrus, you will lose miserably today,” Maverick said confidently.
“Really? I hope you won’t disappoint me!” Cyrus replied sternly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Cyrus’ spiritual power erupted from within him. Red flames enveloped his tall frame.
The next moment, Cyrus stomped hard on the ground and charged at Maverick.
A glint of purple-gold flashed in Maverick’s eyes as he charged at Cyrus as well.
The sound of their fierce clash quickly echoed across the duel platform.
