Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1586 - 443: The Final Battle (1) (Countdown to Finale: 7)
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
Creatures drawing near to it have the potential to transform into mythical beings, directed by the influence of faith's power.
This represents the route of Faith Evolution.
However, for Lanlan, the route of Faith Evolution has taken a distinct turn.
It serves as both a Faith Totem and an authentic living entity.
Its shape and powers require no external credit; it exists in truth.
Yet, the proverb states: "Three people can create a tiger."
Lanlan's abilities are clear-cut, but as these abilities circulated among the Endless Sea's creatures, they morphed beyond their initial state.
Infused with overstatements, each of Lanlan's abilities now features attributes it originally lacked.
Exaggeration or not makes little difference.
The key point is that the Endless Sea's inhabitants genuinely trust in these nonexistent attributes of Lanlan, and their faith power suffices to bring those attributes to life!
The fiercer, more savage whirlpools now form Lanlan's enhanced Vortex Water Refusal, infused with the characteristics bestowed by the Endless Sea's creatures!
The counterstrike isn't merely partial anymore; it surpasses the initial blow in might!
"I am the King of the Sea, and the sea bends to my will!"
As the horrifying wave, surpassing his own assault in ferocity, barreled toward him, the King of the Sea bellowed, and a dazzling blue glow burst from his fluid, see-through eyes.
Vast laws exploded from his form, instantly expanding over the skies and lands.
The entire region appeared to shift into the King of the Sea's territory, where every drop of water obeyed him with crushing dominance.
The massive wave, bounced back by the Vortex Water Refusal, halted abruptly and shattered beneath the King of the Sea's intent, reshaping into a colossal water throne soaring a million meters tall, dominating much of the heavens and softly cradling the King of the Sea's figure.
Perched upon the water throne, the King of Canglang cast another look at Lanlan, his gaze of fury now shifted to scorn.
"Pure Water Spirit, you cannot rival me."
"Every bit of your strength ties to water, but the absurd part is that you've forsaken the rules of the sea oath."
"Regardless of how potent your present route becomes, it holds no connection to water, so your techniques cannot touch me."
Hearing the King of the Sea's mildly taunting remarks, Lanlan kept a steady expression.
The faith path remains enigmatic, unbound to any particular element.
All techniques of the Pure Water Spirit connect to water, and against the King of the Sea who masters the sea's way, such assaults fall under the foe's easy sway.
Similar to the earlier rebound via Vortex Water Refusal, swiftly neutralized by the King of the Sea.
Employing alternative techniques would yield the same outcome.
Except...
"Do you truly believe this exhausts my strength?"
A sly spark lit Lanlan's eyes.
In the following instant, a grander wave of faith power ascended skyward, bathing Lanlan's form in radiance.
Within the faith power's glow, a further enigmatic energy started to emerge gradually.
Sensing that energy, the King of the Sea's eyes narrowed a bit, and his earlier poise vanished from his features.
"This can't be!" he cried out, lunging forward without delay.
Limitless seas of water appeared from nowhere, morphing into raging surges that slammed toward Lanlan, bearing destructive force intent on erasing Lanlan immediately.
Beneath that dread might, the nearby space seemed to solidify, and the immense pressure ripped open the void with a barrage of thunderous rumbles.
The whole Endless Sea surged in response to that vast water might, as if blending into the devastating blow commanded by the King of the Sea.
"Why not?" Lanlan pointed leisurely, drawing back the recoiled waters from the Endless Sea, then pointed once more to deploy Vortex Water Refusal against the blow, "The waters of the Endless Sea do not serve you."
"Boom!"
A deafening blast rang out as the King of the Sea's strike got swallowed by the Vortex Water Refusal's might yet again, converting into a mightier counter that roared back at the King of the Sea.
This round, though, the King of the Sea let out a cry, failing to dispel this nightmarish counter as effortlessly as prior, instead rapidly shifting into a water current to weave through the emptiness, reaching a new spot in a flash.
Yet the water throne he'd assembled moments ago drowned instantly in the colossal surges.
Through endless growls and earth-shaking detonations, two fearsome laws clashed and erased each other in the void, ultimately vanishing into nothing.
"The Way of the Sea Oath?!" The King of the Sea, reforming his body, lost all calm; he fixed his gaze on Lanlan, eyes flashing with bewilderment and alarm, "How can you wield two paths?!"
"How can I wield two paths?" Lanlan grinned faintly, as the energy encircling him peaked and radiated outward, igniting cheers across the entire Endless Sea.
Suddenly, myriad water streams from the Endless Sea gathered behind Lanlan, forming an enormous surge that barreled at the King of the Sea.
This charging surge resembled a watery cyclone, spinning furiously, with every droplet honed like a knife edge, capable of shredding all in its path.
Pure Water Spirit's Innate Ability, the mightiest water assault technique, Water Rolling Skyfall!
Right then, this dread blow shimmered with myriad runes and tangled light trails, evidently bolstered by the faith path's aid.
But simultaneously, another form of power reinforced it as well.
