Chapter 322: Section 110: Truth Divine Pupil
Coldness spread from the depths of his heart.
The Fishman youth gazed at the distant Cold Sky Splitter, his heart filled with bitterness.
The adversary was a Legendary strong adversary, whose fame was not limited to the Frost Continent but was widespread throughout the world.
The gap between him and the adversary was too great; he was only Silver at the moment.
Above Silver was Gold, and above Gold was the Holy Domain.
But even the Holymei Lan High Priest, who was at the Holy Domain Level, could now barely maintain the Holy Domain.
...
Her Holy Domain was rapidly shrinking and wilting before the harsh cold assault, at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Once the Holy Domain shrank to its limit, the unprotected High Priest and the Fishman youth would face nothing but a frozen death.
However, just as the two were caught in an inescapable situation, an accident occurred.
Behind them, the statue of the Fish God suddenly burst into dazzling Divine Light.
The Divine Light enveloped the entire temple, and wherever it reached, the Fishmen who had been frozen solid began to recover, the ice on their bodies dissipated, and they all regained their freedom.
And under the injection of the Divine Light, the High Priest’s Holy Domain rapidly expanded, surpassing her lifetime peak in just a few breaths.
“Welcome, my Lord!” the High Priest became extremely excited and fervent, kneeling directly on the ground.
The majestic Divine Light quickly condensed and transformed into a figure of a Fishman.
The Fishman had a Blue Gemstone embedded on its forehead; its scales shimmered like crystal, it stood tall with full lips, and its muscles were strong yet smoothly contoured.
Upon the appearance of the Fish God’s incarnation, he captured the attention of the entire audience.
The Fishmen were worshipful and fervent, while the Cold Sky Splitter Zhao Ya was solemn and heavy-hearted.
The Fish God’s incarnation stepped down leisurely, paused slightly in front of the High Priest, extended his large palm, and gently caressed her hair.
Then, he turned his gaze towards the Fishman youth.
The Fishman youth’s heart skipped a beat.
But the incarnation simply smiled at him and gave a slight nod before striding past him towards Zhao Ya.
When Zhao Ya saw the Fish God’s incarnation approaching him, the pressure in his spirit skyrocketed.
Still a few hundred steps apart, Zhao Ya could no longer contain himself and let out a low growl, launching an attack.
The Fish God’s incarnation easily countered, while simultaneously throwing his arm backward, flinging out a spread of Divine Light.
The Divine Light quickly dissipated, and everyone, including the Fishman youth and the High Priest, all the Fishmen and Divine Officers, were teleported back to the Wave Hall.
After doing this, the Fish God’s incarnation continued his advance towards Zhao Ya.
Zhao Ya growled and pushed forward with both palms.
Combat Skill—Frost Palm!
The previously used Combat Skill was executed again, but this time, the Cold Sky Splitter was going all in!
A crazy chill filled the hall in an instant; the ice and snow surged wildly. The seawater in the hall froze in a moment, firmly encasing both Zhao Ya and the Fish God’s incarnation.
Zhao Ya exerted all his strength, not even sparing himself, and got frozen as well.
His Fighting energy rapidly depleted, as he maintained the Frost Palm Combat Skill, attempting to halt the advance of the Fish God’s incarnation.
But it wasn’t successful.
A thin layer of Divine Light shrouded the Fish God’s incarnation, who did not stop his steps. As He moved through the ice blocks, the ice dissolved, reverting back into flowing seawater.
Zhao Ya’s pupils contracted, and he gritted his teeth to use another move.
Combat Skill—Cold Battle Axe!
He stopped the Frost Palm, rubbing his hands together, as Fighting energy surged and spun within his palms, eventually forming an axe blade.
He continued to compound his Fighting energy.
The blade spun between his palms, fast and growing larger with every turn.
Three breaths later, the axe blade shot out.
It effortlessly cleaved all the frigid ice that barred its path, spinning towards the Fish God’s incarnation’s face in the blink of an eye.
The incarnation of the Fish God didn’t dodge or avoid, merely lifted its eyes and opened its mouth, actually swallowing the powerfully shot Combat Skill whole.
The Frost Axe entered its body and suddenly exploded.
But the Fish God’s incarnation’s belly only swelled slightly before settling down again.
“How, how is this possible?!” Zhao Ya witnessed this scene and completely lost his composure.
He was very confident in his own strength. He had battled incarnations of the divine and even had combat experience with the deities themselves.
Whether it was the Frost Palm or the Frost Axe, both were his outstanding offensive methods.
“Even the Holy Emperor’s incarnation would have to resist my attacks, but Mei Lan’s incarnation is so nonchalant. How could It possibly be on par with the Holy Emperor?”
Zhao Ya suddenly had a thought, recalling the Barbarian elder’s admonition before he set out.
“Could it be…”
He struggled to pull out a gemstone from within his chest.
And at that moment, the Fish God’s incarnation had already approached Zhao Ya. It slowly extended its hand, reaching for Zhao Ya’s heart.
Zhao Ya had no doubt that once the Fish God’s incarnation touched him, his heart would be ripped out!
At this critical moment, Zhao Ya did not choose to use his most trusted defensive methods but instead channeled his fighting energy and spirit into the Blue Gemstone in his hand.
The gemstone he pulled out was extraordinary, shimmering with a starlight reflecting off the ocean, radiating a cold sharpness.
This Blue Gemstone had been personally given to him by the Barbarian elder before he set out and had instructed him to use it at the most crucial moment.
Zhao Ya had studied this Blue Gemstone for a long time, but no matter what method he used, the gemstone showed no response, as if it were truly just an ordinary gemstone.
If the Barbarian elder hadn’t given it to him with such solemnity, he might have thrown it away as trash long ago.
But in this moment, as he took it out, he knew he had bet correctly!
The Blue Gemstone emitted strands of Divine Light, a divine-being level aura emerging from it. Within the crystal-clear Blue Gemstone, an eye gradually appeared.
This eye, outlined in fluid and graceful gold lines, radiated the sharpest and most ruthless of glares.
“Gold Divine Pupil, Divine Eye of the deity!”
That moment, Zhao Ya was more shocked than overjoyed. He had never imagined that a divine eye was sealed within the Blue Gemstone.
The Gold Divine Eye burst forth with Divine Light, illuminating the surroundings.
Zhao Ya’s frozen ice turned into terrifying cold air, and the sea, along with the temple, began to vanish.
The steps of the Fish God’s incarnation came to a halt for the first time, and moreover, It started to retreat!
“It’s afraid!”
Zhao Ya’s heart pounded with shock; this situation still defied his expectations.
By all logic, as an incarnation of a deity, It should have had the upper hand. After all, Zhao Ya was only holding a deity’s eye.
Yet the Fish God’s incarnation withdrew nonetheless.
“Strange!” Zhao Ya was full of confusion, but this did not prevent him from pressing the advantage. He lifted the Blue Gemstone high and began to charge towards the Fish God’s incarnation.
What shocked him profoundly then occurred.
Whatever place was illuminated by the Divine Pupil turned to nothingness.
The magnificent temple, the ornate pool of Holy Water, and even the Fish God’s incarnation itself, all became so.
The Fish God’s incarnation retreated faster and faster.
But Its presence seemed to anger the Divine Eye within the Blue Gemstone.
Suddenly, the Divine Eye shot out a beam of Divine Light, hitting the Fish God’s incarnation square in the back.
The Fish God’s incarnation immediately dispersed, as if it were merely a play of light and shadow, never actually existing.
“Could it be…”
Zhao Ya was a long-renowned Legend-level powerhouse with extensive knowledge and experience, and he slowly formed a hypothesis.
“Could this be the God of Truth’s eye?!”
