But David stood still, not moving at all.
A calm gray light flowed in front of him, as if it did not carry any power.
Shui Wuhen’s pupils narrowed slightly: “The ability to absorb and transform chaotic power is indeed amazing.”
He withdrew his hand, took a step back, and said with a hint of seriousness in his voice, “Second step. This time I won’t hold back.”
He raised both hands simultaneously, and blue light condensed, compressed, and spun in his palms, turning into two small vortex-like balls of light.
The ball of light contained extremely rich law power, and the surrounding seawater rotated rapidly, forming a turbulent undercurrent.
Two balls of light were launched simultaneously, one from the left and one from the right, attacking David from both sides with lightning speed and needle-sharp precision.
David didn’t shy away.
He stood still, chaotic gray power flowing around him, condensing into a protective membrane of light like flowing water.
That membrane of light flowed slowly over his body, like a layer of mercury, enveloping his entire being.
The two balls of blue light collided with the light protective membrane, producing a series of dull thuds.
The power of the light balls continued to tear and collide, blasting golden cracks onto the surface of the light membrane.
The thin, gray film was like a wound that had been torn open many times and was continuously healing. Every time it was torn apart, it would immediately reform and join again, as if there was no end to it.
Shui Wuhen’s brows furrowed even more.
He could feel that although the protective light membrane did not directly absorb his power, it blocked everything from the outside.
“Third step.”
Shui Wuhen’s voice was very serious, “I have exerted all my strength.”
The blue light surrounding him suddenly surged, like a blue sun rising from the bottom of the sea.
His hands formed ancient hand seals in front of him. The hand seal pattern resonated with the Dao source within his body, triggering the supreme secret technique of the water race that he had cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
A beam of blue light burst out from his palm, like a giant dragon emerging from the abyss, carrying the full power of a peak second-level Grand Luo Golden Immortal, and smashed towards David.
He used this move without the slightest hesitation.
David remained standing in the same place, his hands hanging casually at his sides, without taking any defensive position.
But just as the blue light was about to hit him, his body jolted violently, and a burst of extremely powerful energy shot out from him.
The energy spread outwards like a tsunami, shaking all the surrounding water and creating a vacuum area several meters wide around him.
The moment the blue light came into contact with that energy, it was as if it hit an invisible wall, producing a soft thud before slowly disintegrating and dissipating.
David stood in the middle of the vacuum zone, his gray robe gently waving in the water, without the slightest scratch on his body.
Shui Wuhen’s hands were a little numb from the backlash, and his body subconsciously took a few steps back.
His pupils narrowed sharply, and his seabed-like eyes were filled with uncontrollable shock and disbelief, like a tsunami.
The entire square was enveloped in an eerie silence.
Shui Wuhen slowly lowered his hand, his voice hoarse, filled with a sense of helplessness he had not felt in thousands of years: “You are not a level six Gold Immortal. You have been hiding your strength.”
David withdrew his aura and said calmly, “I am a level six Gold Immortal. But after the fusion of the power of chaos and the power of the water race, my actual combat strength has far exceeded the range that a level six Gold Immortal should have.”
Now, I can face all cultivators below the third rank of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Shui Wuhen was silent for a long time, looking at David with complex emotions roiling in his deep, ocean-like eyes. Finally, he slowly said, “Go. Go and save Lan Tide. If you need the water tribe’s help, let me know.”
David nodded, a gleam of light flashed from his purple eyes: “I will bring her back.”
He turned around and swam towards the city gates.
The gray robe waved gently in the water, like a silent shadow, passing through the crowd of people who were still shocked and had not recovered from the shock.
They passed by the monks in the water, who were still staring wide-eyed.
They swam further and further away from the city gates, passing through the dark blue city that was as beautiful as a dream under the sparkling light of pearls.
Shui Wuhen stood there, watching David’s figure disappear into the shadow of the city gate, his deep ocean-like eyes radiating light like the ebb and flow of the sea.
“Is he really only at the sixth rank of the Golden Immortal realm?”
Lan Yuan’s voice came from the side, filled with the same shock.
Shui Wuhen was silent for a long time, then slowly shook his head: “I don’t know. But I know one thing: what he just said, that a level six Gold Immortal can face a level three or lower Great Luo Gold Immortal, is probably not a lie.”
