Infinite Slaughter System: I Kill, Therefore I Ascend!-Chapter 221: The Finals, Li Ling versus Bai Yegui! 1

Li Ling raised an eyebrow at this, taking a step forward to stop this fellow in his tracks, because who said he could leave?

However, the Divine Deva Overseer, now smarter and wiser to Li Ling's nature, hurriedly stood on the stage and sealed the arena, expelling Li Ling to the side.

"Li Ling has won the match!"

Li Ling could only tsk and glare at Bei Dongshi, who didn't bother to look back, rather wobbling out of the stadium like an old man without his walking stick.

The tumultuous semifinals came to an end just like that, with the final match being…

"Final round of the Annual Sect Ascending Tournament, Li Ling of the Asura Blood Hall versus Bai Yegui of the Hungry Ghost Hall!"

The Divine Deva Overseer announced the final match with a wave of vigor in his voice, his eyes shining as he quickly manipulated the arena formation to turn the entire stage into one ring big enough for two giants to fight… literally!

The spectators also came alive, because regardless of previous conflicts, confusions, arguments and allegiances, this was the final match!

This was the apex of the event that they had waited the entire year for, the climax to an event that surpassed all others of its kind in the history of the sect!

And not only that, it featured two creatures so abnormal and powerful that they were nicknamed the Twin Monsters of the Lower Six Paths!

How could they not be excited? How could they not rise to the spectacle?

How could they… not place bets?

Qin Taishou only spoke briefly with the Grand Elder of his sect that escorted his group here, who then spoke to the Grand Elders of the Six Paths Demon Sect, who then sought permission from Sect Master Ming Yue.

Already slightly bored, Ming Yue lazily waved his hands and granted permission, which made the inheritor of the Seventh Sins demon Sect of Greed, rub his hands together with a gleam in his eyes.

Immediately, using his powerful spirit sense at the Seventh Realm, which was called Void Sense, he quickly transmitted the detail of his 'idea' to every disciple in the sect, which was to allow them to place bets on this final match!

Many immediately became interested, asking for the details of the bet and especially, the odds on each fighter. When they heard it thought, many excited faces shifted, warping into ones of bizarre amusement.

Li Ling to win, 1:1.01!

Bai Yegui to win, 1:100,000!

Match ends in draw, 1:1,000!

There were other categories like how many hits before one collapsed, who would die, how long the match would last, and so on. The variety of odds available were certainly diverse, but most were focused on the simplest and most direct odds, the one that indicated who was going to win! 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

My fellow up there, do you think we don't know that Li Ling would win? While Bai Yegui was good, he had been beaten by Li Ling before, and now, the gap had only widened.

In this entire tournament, none had even been able to touch or injure Li Ling, not even that weird spawn of Bei Dongshi that was stronger than anything anyone had ever seen before, while Bai Yegui already took some damage from his match against Hu Lili.

Interestingly, the people included in Qin Taishou's broadcast were the people about to face off in the arena, now present and staring at each other with differing expressions.

After all, the betting table that was set up by the Inheritor of Greed was open to all comers!

"Oh hoho, it seems that no one has much confidence in you, Old Bai! Tsk, tsk, that must suck!" LI Ling teased with a smarmy grin, looking utterly relaxed.

Bai Yegui thought, was utterly composed with his hands behind his back, his expression serious without being desperate or grim.

"Indeed, and they have every right to. I have not shown anything here or before that would leads them to believe that I can indeed take you down."

"Right? So then where do you get the confidence from? Aren't you going to forfeit ahead of time like the Karma Killer fellow?" Li Ling questioned with a look of interest, tilting his head at an incline while placing a finger on his chin as if he was assessing something.

Bai Yegui's eyes gleaming as he took his hands from behind him and made a hand sign, his voice echoing eerily.

"Because, Li Ling, I always save the best for last!"

Suddenly, Bai Yegui's fully body Hungry Ghost Avatar appeared, standing at around ten storeys tall, completely engulfing one half of the stage with its sheer size. Seeing it like that, the faces of many in the sect changed from complacency to horror, as they had never see an avatar of this size at the third realm!

It was already a logic breaking fact that he somehow had a full body avatar at the peak of the third realm, which was only achievable by those who entered the Nascent Soul realm. On top of that, the fellow had the weird ability to fully manifest his avatar, but kept it hidden in the void, striking from places that felt unpredictable to his opponents.

But even with that fact, he still clearly held back so much in his previous battles, never manifestating a Hungry Ghost Avatar at this size!

If he had, forget Hu Lili, even Bei Dongshi would have been given a run for his money with the sheer physical power that this avatar possessed.

However, he wasn't done!

Bai Yegui made an incantation filled with power as his handsign changed slightly, becoming one of the inverted frog and rabbit combination, nearly shotgunning:

"Avatar Arts: Divine Equipment!"

Immediately, the energy flowed into the already boosted Hungry Ghost Avatar, causing Spectral Armor to enveloped its body from the void, coalescencing to form a smaller by darker blue patters on is livery.

Then, the Hungry Ghost Avatar pushed its hands forward, receiving a large tower shield in the right hands and a long spear that looked-like a rarity not seen before equipment in his right, flooring both blades with a grin.

Immediately, Bai Yegui raised his head to regard Li Ling, whose was closed. In that moment, Bai Yegui seemed like he was a completely different person, because he immediately surged from the ground to the center point of his full Hungry Ghost Avatar's chest, gazing down at Li Ling.

WENG!

A huge aura of pure Yin Power emerged from the Hungry Ghost Avatar, enough so that even those at the fifth realm felt a hint of threat, as if the current Bai Yegui was completely different to who he had been before.

"Oh? Not bad, Old Bai, you still have some tricks up your sleeve! Since we're unveiling auras, why don't I do mine then?" Li Ling retorted with a tease, immediately unleahsing his full Blood Power!

SPLOSH!

With the sound of a viscous liquid splashing about, his thick 120 meters Blood Power radius immediately shocked every onlooker, with some unable to help rising to their feet in shock!

None had truly seen his Blood Power since the start of the tournament, and the only time he actually used it was to spar with Bei Dongshi's summon, the Underworld Lower Judge.

Even then, he used little of it and was able to receive the fellows hits without much of a care, the Underworld Lower Judge eventually forced to commit suicide with just one of Li Ling's daoist arts!

So this unveil was the first time many got to see the Blood Power that was so pure that there were flecks of gold within, shining and sparkling like the most lustrous item in the world.

However, it still paled in comparison to the size of the avatar that stood before him in a battle stance, ready to attack at the slightest pin drop!

"You know Old Bai, you are not bad! But do you think that ramshackle thing can really make a difference?" Li Ling directly taunted the massive avatar that overshadowed him, seeming unimpressed.

Bai Yegui simply snorted coldly. "We'll see once we start exchanging blows, won't we? Speaking of that, lets see how you handle this!!"

Immediately, the Hungry Ghost Avatar lifted a leg upward, almost at the slow pace of a giant, which was extremely deceptive, Li Ling knew. As such, when the leg came down with such force and speed that it surpassed a flying bullet, Li Ling was nowhere to be seen once the dust cleared.

"Tsk, Old Bai, you haven't gained any insight into me, have you? Don't tell me you haven't been watching all my fights this time?"

An arrogant and smarmy voice sounded out on the shoulder of the Hungry Ghost Avatar, revealing Li Ling who was seated there while swinging his legs like a child as the playground.

Yet Bai Yegui was not surprised nor ruffled, simply turning his head slightly to glance at Li Ling.

"Indeed, while your moves are hard to red due to your versatile arsenal, what is easy to do is predict what you will do next!"

"Huh?" Li Ling muttered a split second before the place he sat shifted, elongating into a sharp spike that pierced him from tailbone to mouth!
