Proxy Connection Failed!

As soon as Geo's feet left the small hill he had previously fused to; thick blood gushed out of the holes created by his hair. The thick blood quickly began to boil the moment it touched the air, creating a thick blood fog that rapidly spread throughout the obsidian platform.

Within seconds, the former black small hill was transformed into a blood hill as the thick blood that hadn't yet evaporated flowed down the hill and flooded Geo's Shadow Swamp. Strangely after the blood touched the Shadow Swamp, it didn't sink or get absorbed and treated it like a regular floor causing a large blood pool to form.

"Quite impressive, right? This is a personal spell that I created to counter spells like Shadow Swamp."

"Not only is it able to change the environment to be more suitable for me, but the blood itself is extremely dangerous. It's as hot as lava and is poisonous, so as long as you inhale the slight amount, you will die." As Geo explained his new spell, he turned his gaze to one of the ten Shadow Lords amidst the crowd of immortal cultivators and showed a sinister grin.

The Shadow Lord, who was being challenged, gripped his fist as he took off his robe, allowing Yoze to finally see the appearance of one of the Shadow Lords. This Shadow Lord strangely kept his elderly appearance and lacked any hair on his head.

Paired with his thick gray mustache, blue eyes, thick wrinkles, and skinny body, this Shadow Lord looked like a harmless old man he would frequently pass by on the street. Yet this harmless old man stared at Geo with clear hatred in his eyes and even mouthed some ruthless words under his breath.

"Hahaha, are you afraid, William? If you are, just make sure you keep your head clean so that when I cut it off your shoulders, I don't have to immediately throw it into the trash." After seeing the old man's reaction to the Bleeding Mountain spell, Geo let out a hearty laugh as he made it clear to everyone that this spell was created to target Shadow Lord William.

"Anyways, this spell isn't quite complete yet since I haven't figured out how to make sure that it doesn't kill me by accident. So as long as you can survive your fall, I'll concede this victory to you." After laughing at William, Geo turned his attention back to Yoze, who was starting to descend back to the platform.

Even though Geo had said that he hadn't completed the spell and would die from it, Yoze didn't believe a single word of his. He didn't doubt for a second that Geo had some measure in place that would allow him to survive his own spell.

Even if the spell Bleeding Mountain was incomplete and didn't distinguish its user and their enemies apart, Geo could have just created a supporting spell that blocked out the poisonous blood fog and two thousand-degree blood. That was, he could have a perfect safe haven that his enemies would have to pass through to attack him.

Even if he hadn't figured out a spell that protected him, Geo always had the option of canceling the spell. So there really wasn't any danger for Geo himself. At the same time, Yoze would have to exhaust his crystal energy and stamina constantly to deal with the harsh environment.

After thinking about the pros and cons of the situation, Yoze silently sighed and glanced at Geo before transforming his blood into a whip, whipping the ground outside the obsidian platform and pulling himself out.

Before anyone could react, Yoze softly landed on the soft green grass barely disturbed by their battle. He deactivated his blood armor and calmly sat down as he waited for the announcer to announce his defeat.

"That's it, lady and gentleman! The fierce and blood-boiling battle between Yoze and Geo has ended with Yoze's defeat!"

Just as he expected, shortly after his feet landed on the ground, the announcer, who had disappeared at some point during the battle, reappeared and waved his hands in excitement. With a simple hand motion, the terrifying blood lake that had formed due to the tens of thousands of gallons of blood leaking out of the bleeding hill turned into harmless most.

Even Geo's Bleeding Mountain and his Shadow Swamp couldn't escape the destruction as they turned into nothing but a white mist that easily vanished from a gentle gust of wind.

"Brother Yoze, I understand your decision and will respect it. My offer still stands if you want to visit the Immortal Shadow Sect headquarters." Even though his spells were forcefully destroyed, Geo smiled as he happily claimed victory.

"I'll think about it once you become immortal; until then, it's just not worth the effort. Nonetheless, it was great fighting you." Yoze said with a smile as he shook his head and temporarily didn't accept Geo's offer.

He could guess that if he accepted Geo's offer publicly or even privately, he would have gained the ire of Shadow Lord William, which he wasn't interested in gaining the attention of just yet. If he was interested in gaining attention, he would have used more of his power to continue to fight Geo and evaluated himself to the level of the Immortal Shadow Sect's Shadow Lord instead of accepting this loss.

Even though he was disappointed that he couldn't claim a third victory and get more Sect Points, he believed his decision to limit his strength was overall beneficial.

Not only was he confident that he had avoided a situation where he looked too strong, but he even was able to improve his martial art skills since he had to rely on his martial art techniques and strategies to last as long as he did against someone as strong as Geo. So he didn't feel upset and just hoped that he had gotten enough points to buy some good stuff on the Sect.
