Chapter 825: Lightning vs Earth

Right now, although Davis felt rueful and nostalgic, when he turned to look at his opponent Halifan, he saw that he possessed a scrutinizing gaze. He became confused.

'Oh? Did it appear as if I was flirting with the Conferred Queen just now?' Davis smiled as he glanced at the crowd.

The crowd all felt doubtful that Alchemist Davis wasn't just a subordinate but was also someone who was pursuing his Young Mistress, the Conferred Queen. This revelation caused them to blink in disbelief, but when they recalled that he was a madman who married a 'poisonous' wife, they couldn't help but start to think that he really might be daring enough to pursue the Conferred Queen.

They had to acknowledge his courage if it were really the case!

It was just that; they didn't know that he had already conquered the Conferred Queen's heart!

Davis wasn't worried that they would become suspicious because it was common for a male subordinate to pursue his female master, but that depended on whether the subordinate was courageous and willing to lose his life or not.

After all, the subordinate's head would be beheaded by the Young Mistress's Family the moment his blasphemous thoughts were revealed, unless the subordinate was stronger and worthier.

"Then... As my Young Mistress said, I think we really postponed the battle a bit. If we don't start now, when will we?" Davis looked at the silent referee.

That poor old referee looked angry that they were ignoring the sacred stage of the competition, but what could he say in the presence of the Conferred Queen? The whole point of the battle exchange and the reason they came here was to obtain the nectar, but if they could also please the Conferred Queen, why wouldn't they wait?

Besides, if they really offended the Conferred Queen, then they could say farewell to the nectar, never to be obtained again.

He dropped his hand like an ax and echoed, "Let the battle begin!"

Davis instantly lifted his hand, causing Halifan to flinch. However, nothing happened even after two seconds moved.

Only his lips moved, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to attack?"

Halifan's expression became unsightly. He coldly harrumphed, "You do have some tricks up your sleeve, but don't think you can beat me. You have no chance to beat me because I can cross a level to battle!"

By the time he said the latter sentence, the crowd was clamoring in astonishment and awe on seeing his Mid-Level Law Manifestation undulations surge like a sandstorm. His essence energy was seemingly concentrated and pure to a degree.

Yellowish essence energy swirled around him as his chest was sticking out proudly, and even his gaze fell on the Conferred Queen to garner her reaction, but when he saw that she was as indifferent, he became disappointed.

To battle across levels at the Sixth Stage earned him incredible praise from the crowd, but it seemed that it isn't anything worthy of concern to the Conferred Queen. He also looked at Hannah, but even she remained indifferent.

Davis couldn't believe what he just saw from his opponent. He couldn't tell if his opponent was just too horny or just too idiotic to ignore him. The caution Halifan had for him seem to disappear with his feint.

Davis dropped his hand and suddenly smiled, but his smile was no longer of an easygoing fellow, but one of a wolf eyeing its prey as a strange black light flashed past his eyes. The sudden change made Halifan feel a chill on his back. The gaze that was directed at him suddenly made him freeze for a second.

'Oh? The laws pertaining to death that I comprehended have such an intimidating effect? It is similar to killing intent but much effective?'

He mused before Low-Level Law Manifestation Stage undulations spread around him. His essence energy circulated in his dantian before running through his meridian points. Black lightning surged and crackled before all ten of his fingers, extending towards the surroundings, shrouding him in a torrent of dark lighting!

"Haha, lightning? Black lightning? Although I don't know the property of the black lightning, you are bound to fail against my earth-attributed attack and defense!" Halifan joyfully laughed.

He seemed to become extremely confident in himself suddenly.

Davis smirked. He knew that lightning was weak against the earth and so could understand Halifan abruptly looking down on him, but to think just because he got the elemental advantage, he became complacent with himself.

Was this Halifan really a core hall disciple? To him, he seemed more of a silver spoon-fed brat.

Nevertheless, even though his essence gathering cultivation base was lower and his elemental prowess was at a disadvantage, he wasn't panicked.

"Well, then... I'll show you the might of my black lightning!"

Davis started to walk step by step as he approached Halifan at a slow pace. Each step he took brought enormous pressure to Halifan, causing him to narrow his brows.

"Hmph! Don't get full of yourself, especially when you train in lightning! With earth as my weapon, I'll make you understand that your strange lightning is nothing in front of me!" Halifan raised his hand as a yellow colored essences energy poured out of his palms, manifesting into a yellowish palm.

It was more than a hundred meters tall, looking imposing and mighty like it could stop and crush anything in its way!

Davis's eyes flashed as he recognized this attack. It was none other than that golden palm that was produced by Elder Towerfall though it seemed weaker but larger. He didn't know the name of this technique, and the other party didn't seem to be shouting it either.

The yellowish palm shot towards him like a breeze, coming straight at him! As if being rattled, the black lightning took the shape of a tiger clad in black lightning and pounced on the yellowish palm.

*Boom!~*

The black lightning tiger was destroyed in a single hit, but the palm continued to move towards Davis while crushing the arcs of black lightning in its way like a tyrant!

"Ha! So much for posing! In front of earth's prowess, your strange lightning didn't last a single exchange! Are you sure that your lighting isn't used to heal instead?" Halifan mocked as he pointed at Alchemist Davis.

However, his expression changed as he saw his yellowish palm fade away after being continuously barraged by that strange black-lighting.

"Impossible! My Earthen Palm Manifestation is not something the likes of you can easily erase with your measly power! It is filled with twenty-five percent of my essence energy! How can your interior lighting win against my earthen powers!?"

Halifan summoned his law manifestation because he wanted to one-shot Alchemist Davis! Even if it didn't gravely injure him, it should've at least reached him and given him a blow and made the crowd and the beauties look at him in awe, but it didn't!

Furthermore, it was common knowledge that Lightning is weak against the might of Earth. He was sure that he could've easily played Alchemist Davis to death despite the caution he had felt.

Usually, the manifestation would've been a trump card for a Law Manifestation Stage Cultivator, so he was shocked to find out that his greatest attack failed so easily!

'Oh? I can summon my law manifestation?' Davis, who knew less about the Law Manifestation, had his eyes lit up.
