Holy Fist!

"Can't even get close?"

Canaan took a deep breath, almost ready to give up. But as she scanned the square, she suddenly saw a section of crystal-clear lotus root emerging from the ground, which had been left in tatters by the two combatants.

Canaan's gaze sharpened, and she immediately tracked it, only to find more sections of glazed lotus root in other pits and craters. The final direction led towards the north side of the island. She stepped forward and followed the trail. Half a minute later, Canaan stopped, her breathing slightly hurried.

Before her, beneath the surface of the Blood Lake, at the side of the island's rock wall.

An unmistakable sight—another Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform, its reflection distorted by the water's waves.

"Twin Lotus!?"

Canaan's pupils contracted, expressing utter joy.

This Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform was much smaller, roughly only half the size beneath a Grandmaster's body. But still enough for one person to sit cross-legged.

"Master Fang, please protect me."

She leapt directly into the water, her Qi wrapping around her body and forming a bubble. Canaan reached five meters beneath the surface, landing on the lotus platform.

Seated cross-legged, her expression immensely grave.

Canaan entered the state as quickly as possible, instantly activating the Buddha Demon Heavenly Heart Technique. Her entire being sank into stillness; half her face transformed to resemble the imposing and benevolent Buddha, while the other half seemed as sinister and wicked as a Heavenly Demon.

Immediately.

She felt the powerful effects of the Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform below, enveloped in an extremely special, invisible rhythm. Her distractions stripping away, her heart became crystal clear. A vast spirituality gathered like tides.

Moreover, Canaan sensed that the Glazed Enlightenment Lotus Platform seemed to harbor remnants of fragmented insights, swimming like sardines. These were clearly the impressions left by successive Grandmasters of the Blood God Sect during their enlightenment at the lotus platform, shimmering like illusions! If a Martial Artist at Peak Sect Leader Level absorbed them, it could bring enormous benefits.

However, these were temporarily useless to Canaan.

What she needed now was to elevate the Buddha Demon Heavenly Heart Technique to the forbidden level!

"Buddha Demon Heavenly Heart, one thought of righteousness and evil!"

"Break for me!"

Canaan summoned all her will, ignited all her spirit, qi, and mind, driven by the fierce intent of achieving success or die trying, and charged towards the Forbidden Secret Martial.

...

"Bang bang bang!"

"Thud thud thud!"

In the distance, two figures fought, moving closer to the island.

Finally, they both leapt; like cannonballs, they crashed into the center of the square. Dust settled, waves of wind gusted through. Bai Xiao and Chi Sect, both were in a blood-stained state, scars and wounds covering them, twisted and grim.

However, it was clear that Chi Sect was still being suppressed into the inferior position. His entire body had almost ceased to be flesh and blood; each section was completely Dao-transformed into a blood-red Qi phantom.

Bai Xiao was similarly in poor condition, two golden light arms crawling with cracked blood marks, two enormous gashes on his chest and waist. Particularly in spirit, qi, and mind, after wielding Grandmaster's Will two to three times, the depletion was significant. If not for being in the Glazed Dragon Elephant Extreme Realm, he probably would have fainted.

Both had exhausted almost all their trump cards in the fight.

Not quite depleted yet, but close to the end of resources.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, the Blood God Statue on the square shuddered slightly. A fiercely wild and savage primal aura gradually rose, golden-red lights appearing.

"Swish."

Chi Sect swiftly turned his head, a thick trace of dread flashing in his eyes.

"Not good..."

"It's coming!"

He turned again, his eyes dead set on Bai Xiao's towering figure.

"Since you persist in meddling again and again, don't blame me!"

Chi Sect let out a low growl, his Grandmaster's Will escalated infinitely, resonating massively with the colossal Grandmaster's Will inside the distant Grandmaster's vessel.
