My Master Knows It All-Chapter 558 - 191: What You Can Do, I Can Do Better_1

The crowd had just watched the battle between Qin Yao and Li Ke, where Li Ke had been the aggressor while Qin Yao consistently defended.

Unexpectedly, in the next match, they witnessed another bout where one person launched a furious assault while another defended throughout.

Only, the defender this time...

"Why is Liao Kong the one constantly on the defense?"

"Clearly, Liao Kong is the stronger one; he should be the one attacking, and Yi Sheng defending, right? How has it been reversed? A being at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, not attacking but always defending?"

On the high mountain, the crowd looked toward the arena with surprised expressions.

Above the arena, endless flames had completely enveloped Liao Kong.

Around Liao Kong, an ancient lamp appeared, and he himself transformed into a figure of Buddha, waves of tranquil and auspicious energy emerged, infusing into the ancient lamp as if igniting it. Gentle light stretched out in all directions, enveloping Liao Kong within it.

This glow seemed dim and lacked the fearsome might that surged forth, yet the aggressive, seemingly mountain-incinerating flames unleashed by Yi Sheng couldn’t penetrate this gentle light.

Liao Kong showed no intention of attacking. He hadn’t even tried to forcefully break through the Formation Map before him; after all, Yi Sheng had said to give her some guidance, so he would do just that.

Yi Sheng’s aura had already peaked. Five Thunderbolt Formation Method, Explosive Sun Flames... she had used all her tricks, yet she still could not breach Liao Kong’s defense. Throughout, Liao Kong had not used other Divine Skills, only manifesting that ancient lamp.

Now, all she had left was her strongest Detached Fire.

"Brother Liao Kong, be careful."

Behind Yi Sheng, nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills vibrated wildly. Within the Golden Pills, clusters of flames seemed as if they were about to explode.

And among those nine Golden Pills, the last one to condense, the Detached Fire Golden Pill, shot forth a blazing beam straight up to the heaven.

Flames raged heavenward, split into two hues—the exterior purple and the core scarlet.

"Detached Fire."

"Yi Sheng is finally using her Detached Fire."

"Who knows how much power her Detached Fire can exhibit against the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection master."

The Detached Fire gathered into a phoenix, charging directly towards Liao Kong.

Liao Kong’s expression suddenly changed, revealing a look of solemnity. He had been on the defense, partly indeed to let Yi Sheng exert herself, and partly because he also wanted to experience the power of this Detached Fire!

Feeling the fierce heatwave in the void, as well as the inviolable, terrifying aura, he lifted his hand and pointed towards the space before him.

Suddenly, a white lotus appeared in the void.

The lotus instantly bloomed, its ninety-nine petals scattering in all directions. In the center of the petals, a figure of Fa Xiang Golden Buddha appeared.

The Buddha figure dignified and compassionate, with merciful light on his face that seemed to rescue all sentient beings.

In the Buddha’s hand, there was also a transparent vase with a willow branch sticking out.

The Buddha lifted another hand, forming a symbolic gesture, and lightly flicked the willow branch toward the incoming fire.

Suddenly, a few water droplets flew out.

In the next moment, under the endless Mana and Buddha Power, the droplets became a vast ocean, pouring over the fiery phoenix.

Waves of compassionate energy filled the arena and even spread up to the high mountain.

Instantly, many Zen Cultivation experts shouted in surprise.

"In the willow flask eternal spring abides, on the lotus throne, Buddha’s mercy resides. This is our Zen Cultivation’s Great Mercy Holy Water."

"Between Detached Fire and Great Mercy Holy Water, which is stronger?"

As fire met water, a sizzling sound erupted so loudly it seemed as if the void itself was continuously exploding.

In the void, the Scarlet Flame Heavenly Phoenix’s flames and the Great Mercy Holy Water were like two equally matched contenders, resulting in a deadlock, neither being able to advance by half a step.

But gradually, beads of sweat appeared on Yi Sheng’s forehead and instantly vaporized under the intense heat. However, her body swayed slightly.

In the sky, the Scarlet Flame Heavenly Phoenix’s flames began to retreat under the impact of the Great Mercy Holy Water.

"Liao Kong has won."

"In the end, the Great Mercy Holy Water is superior by half."

A smile appeared on the faces of the Zen Cultivation disciples.

Others nearby gently shook their heads, saying, "It’s not that the Great Mercy Holy Water is stronger; it’s just that Yi Sheng only has nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills and hasn’t completed the Pill Fusion. Her power can’t match Liao Kong’s."

"That’s true, also water inherently overcomes fire."

"The outcome of this battle was actually predestined. No matter what, Yi Sheng could never have been Liao Kong’s match."

Under everyone’s gaze, the flames of the Scarlet Flame Heavenly Phoenix gradually dissipated. Yi Sheng had yet to concede, continuing to persevere.

Finally, the entire arena was filled with endless running water, the currents rushing wildly, sweeping her body to the edge of the arena, triggering the Formation light curtain.

As the light curtain lit up, Liao Kong immediately retracted his Divine Skills.

The endless water, as if it had never existed, disappeared without a trace.

"Sister, your Detached Fire is indeed astonishing," Liao Kong said toward Yi Sheng with a look of admiration. "If you became a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection and completed the Pill Fusion, the outcome of this battle would be uncertain."
