Chapter 105: Chapter 105: The Reason I Can’t Lose
"Ghost Race First Technique, Mountain Opening!"
Around Veridia, the ghostly aura suddenly contracted, and black patterns flowed over her skin like living creatures.
As her hands crossed, the materialized ghost aura emitted a metallic resonance.
[Strength: 6000→9000]
Under the influence of this skill, her strength attribute increased by 1.5 times.
At this moment, it was equal to Lazuli, both reaching 9000 points!
Facing such a formidable enemy, Lazuli couldn’t afford to be complacent.
"Judgment!"
She uttered in a low voice, and the golden Holy Sword ignited with blazing gold flame, which coiled around the blade like dragons and serpents.
It’s a technique she had not used for a long time.
But facing this ghost race, she had to go all out!
The next moment, both their auras surged to their peaks at the same time!
"Boom—!"
Almost simultaneously, Veridia, surrounded by ghost aura, and Lazuli, entwined in golden flame, launched their assault!
"Rumble—!"
Two entirely opposing forces collided violently at the center of the arena, and the fierce shockwave swept around like raging tides.
The ancient stone platform below, weathered by centuries, shattered inch by inch under the impact of this force, scattering debris!
The surrounding extraordinary level Beast Tamers were blown over by the aftershock, falling to the ground in a sorry state.
A few commander-level Beast Tamers who managed to steady themselves looked at the battlefield center in disbelief.
"Aren’t these two beasts at the extraordinary level? Why do their energy fluctuations not pale in comparison to the commander level!"
"Aside from not having domain clashes, this is essentially a commander-level battle!"
However, the chaos was not limited to the arena—
The violent energy fluctuations swept through the entire City of Chaos like a hurricane, even alerting several true monarch-level figures within the city.
Several powerful spiritual forces instantly locked onto the chaos arena!
Draconia’s base.
Zane Drake was preparing to head to The Council and The Holy See to discuss the matters of the Divine Realm in seven days.
Suddenly, a powerful energy fluctuation came from the direction of the chaos arena.
"This is..."
Noelle Quinn, Stryker, and Zane Drake almost simultaneously sensed this aura.
The three of them simultaneously projected their spiritual power towards the chaos arena.
Upon seeing the beasts battling on the arena, a flicker of surprise flashed across their faces.
But they immediately understood...
This must be Aster Grant selecting his third beast.
However...
That ghost race was fighting Lazuli to a draw.
Could it mean that ghost race’s level...
Is also at Mythic level!
Meanwhile, the spiritual powers of the earlier monarch-level figures also sensed the extraordinariness of that ghost race on the arena.
A beast with powerful talent is something everyone desires.
Monarch levels were no exception!
However, before they could take any action, an overwhelmingly dominant aura enveloped the entire scene.
Zane Drake made his move!
His actions signified Draconia’s stance:
Anyone who dared interfere would be at odds with the entire Draconia!
Feeling this intimidation, those monarch-level powerhouses that were on the move immediately restrained their intentions.
This was one of the top three powerhouses of the human race, and if they truly dared act against his will,
The Council and The Holy See, to avoid offending Draconia, would inevitably offer them as scapegoats.
Seeing these monarch levels calm down, Zane Drake snorted coldly, turning his attention back to the arena.
For this battle...
He was also extremely curious about who would win!
Chaos Arena.
Within mere breaths, Veridia and Lazuli exchanged hundreds of rounds.
Although Lazuli almost crushed Veridia in speed, defense, and various other attributes...
The latter’s almost instinctive battle sense allowed her to fight this myth-level angel to a standstill.
However, as time passed, Veridia’s disadvantages gradually became apparent.
"Clang!"
Lazuli’s Holy Sword clashed against Veridia’s fists again, sparking blinding sparks.
In that instant of lightning-fast action, Veridia suddenly switched tactics, clamping onto the Holy Sword’s blade with her hands like iron clamps!
"Sizzle—"
The Blazing Angel Flame clashed fiercely with the dense ghost aura, emitting a teeth-gritting corrosive sound.
The golden Holy Flame continuously pierced through the ghostly barrier, scorching Veridia’s palms, with the smell of burnt flesh instantly filling the air.
Yet this stubborn ghost tribe girl didn’t even flinch, her blue eyes staring directly at Lazuli, her voice frighteningly calm:
"You... are very strong."
Her tone was flat, but carried an unprecedented seriousness.
This angel was the strongest opponent she had encountered in all these years.
Lazuli’s expression was equally grave.
She clearly felt her absolute superiority in attributes, but this ghost tribe in front of her used nearly flawless combat skills to level the gap.
"You’re not bad either."
Lazuli solemnly responded.
Upon hearing this acknowledgment, a rare smile appeared at the corner of Veridia’s mouth.
As a naturally battle-loving member of the Ghost Race, it had been a long time since she had fought so freely.
"Although you’re strong..."
The Ghost Qi around Veridia suddenly surged violently.
"But this time, I must win! I have an absolute reason not to lose!"
Lazuli was taken aback upon seeing this.
Could it be that during the previous battle, this Ghost Race member still held back strength?
However, bound by Vera, Scarlett suddenly struggled violently upon seeing this scene.
Her wide-open eyes were full of fear, and she made "mmm" sounds from her throat.
Aster Grant understood immediately and gestured for Vera to release the restraints.
The moment the vines withdrew from Scarlett’s mouth, the girl ignored the pain at the corners of her mouth and shouted with a sobbing tone:
"Aster! Stop my sister quickly! If she keeps increasing her power like this, her body will collapse!"
Scarlett’s words caused Aster’s heart to tighten.
He immediately checked Veridia’s attributes—
[Ghost Race (Veridia)]
[Level: Extraordinary Tier Nine]
[Talent: Myth One Star]
[Power: 12000]
[Constitution: 3000 (On the verge of collapse)]
[Spiritual: 3000]
[Speed: 3000]
[Skills: Ghost Race Four Techniques, Ghost King’s Body, Strength Domain]
[Note: This Beastbond is forcibly using "Ghost Race Second Technique: Sea Breaker", body is already at the edge of collapse!]
Seeing the "on the verge of collapse" displayed on the attribute panel, Aster’s brows furrowed tightly.
This battle no longer needed to continue!
If it went on, there would only be one result...
Mutual destruction!
But at this moment, the two battle-intent-beastbonds were clearly no longer listening to any persuasion.
How could he stop them?
Aster’s gaze turned urgently and finally fixed on Vera.
At the center of the arena.
"Ghost Race Second Technique, Sea Breaker!"
Veridia’s fierce shout exploded on the arena, and in an instant, the previously turbulent Ghost Qi suddenly collapsed.
The entire arena trembled violently under this force, even the space began to warp and distort.
Lazuli’s ten light wings trembled violently under this pressure, but she still stubbornly held her head high.
She could clearly feel...
At this moment, Veridia’s power had completely surpassed her own!
But...
Lazuli’s fingers gripping the Holy Sword turned white from the force, and the golden flames in her eyes burned even brighter.
Except for her master...
She would never retreat even half a step!
"I—will—not—admit—defeat!"
With this shout, the Blazing Angel Fire around Lazuli suddenly collapsed into a pure white color.
Behind her, the eleventh and twelfth wings had already taken shape.
Aster was shocked to find...
At this moment, all of Lazuli’s attributes had mysteriously increased again!
[Divine Angel (Lazuli)]
[Talent: Myth Three Stars]

[Power: 9060→10060 (Surpassing Limits)]

[Speed: 9090→10090 (Surpassing Limits)]
[Skills: Blazing Angel Form, Doomsday Angel Form, Celestial Fire Domain]
[Note: Spiritual attribute surpassing safety line, continuing the battle will cause irreversible damage!]
Seeing this line of warning, his pupils contracted sharply.
Damn!
These two idiots!
Did they not care about their lives just to win or lose?!
"Damn! You two fools!"
He suddenly turned his head to Vera, his voice carrying an undeniable command:
"Vera! Elf Monarchy! Now! Immediately!"
