Chapter 1104: Xi Lu vs. White Lagoon!

As soon as he grabbed the card, Xi Lu found himself in a different location.

He stood atop the ocean, an invisible force stopping him from falling into the water. In the sky, the sun was shining, creating a beautiful scene.

Eeeyaah!

Right at that moment, a beautiful cry rang out in the area as the water moved, and a creature twice the size of Xi Lu jumped out of the ocean.

It was none other than the White Lagoon. It fluttered its wings, floating in the air; its piercing blue eyes stared at Xi Lu.

Xi Lu felt his heart almost melt from seeing the creature, but the aura filled with brutality around the White Lagoon made him know that the reality wasn't what it looked like outside.

Xi Lu also noticed his cultivation had dropped to peak Divine Being, matching that of the White Lagoon.

Soon, Xi Lu grew solemn. The White Lagoon was a good fighter with a high capacity for violence, and the environment around him added further to its strength.

Xi Lu understood that the battle wasn't going to be easy. In fact, he wouldn't be surprised if it went on to become the hardest battle he would ever face.

Xi Lu took a deep breath, turning himself into his perfect mindset before the battle.

Xi Lu had the intuition that he wouldn't be able to step on water after the battle began, so he also prepared for that. Fighting the Water Lagoon inside the water was no less than suicide for him.

Eeeyaah!

The White Lagoon cried and made its move as soon as the battle began. Its eyes were still beautiful and innocent, but its actions were entirely different.

The White Lagoon smashed its claws at Xi Lu, who lost his footing above water.

Xi Lu was a talented human cultivator, or he would have never been able to pass the tests left by Arjuna and become the Emperor of the Xirin Empire.

Xi Lu majored in fire and space, so using the element of space, he isolated the water so that he would be in a different space and the water would be in a different space.

The isolation mattered nothing to the White Lagoon as its claw came smashing down on Xi Lu.

His eyes were calm as he raised his hands and punched, clashing directly with the claw.

The next moment, a ball of red fire engulfed his fist and slammed onto the claw. The result wasn't what Xi Lu wanted to see, as the White Lagoon seemed unfazed by the attack. But fortunately for him, it had done what Xi Lu wanted most. It stopped the assault.

Xi Lu attacked immediately after, as a large fireball appeared right above the lagoon and smashed into it.

Eeeyaah!

The attack made the lagoon angry, adding oil to its violent side. The creature let out an angry roar and clashed with the fireball with its body.

The next moment, the White Lagoon came out unscathed from the attack. Xi Lu didn't seem to be surprised since if only this were enough to damage the lagoon, then there was no point in him worrying much about the fight.

The White Lagoon thought differently. Even though it came out unscathed from the attack, its anger grew further. Its eyes were still as blue as ever, but now there was a tint of red appearing.

The White Lagoon charged at Xi Lu, and several whirlpools were surrounding him at the same time.

A wave of suction pressure attacked him, trying to suck him inside the whirlpool and suffocate him. Xi Lu focused on those who were extremely dangerous if let loose and isolated them using [Space Dissection].

The whirlpools were still active, but they were in a different space, so they didn't try to suck Xi Lu inside any longer.

At that time, the White Lagoon had reached Xi Lu, so it attacked.

Before Xi Lu could think of ways to defend himself from the large claw, aiming to burst his head, a large wave of water rose in the ocean not far from him.

Boom!

Xi Lu decided to take a risk as the fireball he had just created exploded, throwing him backward.

The White Lagoon's claws smashed through the smoke while Xi Lu was hundreds of meters away from the attack.

At the same time, the wave smashed, giving birth to new waves and making the ocean turbulent. The White Lagoon was unconcerned despite being at the center of the wave crash.

EEEYAAH!

The White Lagoon let out a majestic roar and jumped out of the wave. It floated in the air, its wings fluttering.

Its blue eyes searched for its opponents. It suddenly sensed danger and immediately turned around. There was Xi Lu in the air, with a giant fireball in the shape of a lotus above his hands.

BOOM!

Xi Lu smashed the lagoon with the fire lotus, creating a loud explosion in the air.

But before he could celebrate, a wave of heat hit him, scalding him. It wasn't the end, as when the smoke cloud subsided, the White Lagoon had a ball of fire in its hands and a transparent shield around it.

It was [Pearl Barrier]. The skill allowed the lagoon to return the attack, but it also had an additional ability that gave the lagoon the power to choose when to reflect and not immediately after receiving the skill.

Time flew by, and several days had passed since the battle had begun.

None of the two parties thought twice, even if they had to use an attack that would harm them as well as their opponent.

The White Lagoon's blue eyes had turned red and raged on the battlefield.

"If you survive this attack, I will give up," Xi Lu announced and activated his ultimate attack [World Disorientation].

The next second, the ocean and the sky swapped places. Veins began to pop out all over Xi Lu's body as his physique couldn't bear the energy required for the skill.

The White Lagoon found itself next to the sun, with a large gravitational force attacking it. The White Lagoon tried to run away, but it was only going closer to the sun.

Time flew by.

Xi Lu returned to the store, with a wide smile plastered on his face.
