Fierce battles arose. Tremendous exchange of auras, spirits, and intents occurred, especially with Finley. As countless lights broke out in all directions, the thirteenth space shook tempestuously because of the repercussions.
At this time, Darren and the Water Kylin pushed Landon back. Luckily, they had compelled him farther away from Finley. Otherwise, their battle against Landon would be affected, and Darren wouldn't want that to happen.
"Finley is a beast. He really fights with the five-star grand warrior! That Holy Lord would be a piece of cake for him," the Water Kylin exclaimed when he noticed the progress of the battle.
Stimulated by Finley's exceptional courage, the Water Kylin turned furious. As a result, his fighting capacity went up along with his determination to help Darren out in defeating the Holy Lord. Thus, gathering his strength, he launched intensive attacks to Landon, even prevailing over him.
At the same time, Darren fought like a guerrilla, assaulting Landon with powerful skills one at a time. Under the converging attack of Darren and the Water Kylin, Landon had been all scratched up. He was so exhausted at receiving each blow, sweats soaked his garments, and he was panting hard to breathe.
"Damn you bastards! Go to hell!" Not giving up, Landon bellowed as his belly lit up. Then a cloud of hyacinthine lightning gathered around him. The force accumulated around him stirred and collected around his body.
"Eh?" A furrow appeared at Darren's brow as he wondered, sensing that something horrible was about to happen. It seemed that the lightning in Landon's belly was a lot stronger than the lightning shot from his eyes.
"Man, watch your back. He is going to put up a desperate fight!" Darren whispered to the Water Kylin using his spiritual sense.
"Master, stay away. Let me confront him with my absolute power!" the Water Kylin shouted valorously back to Darren. Instead of showing fear, the Water Kylin shrank and spat out a crystal bead.
Seeing the bead, Darren was surprised for he had never seen the Water Kylin displayed such a skill, even when he was at death's door.
The crystal bead ceaselessly rotated before the Water Kylin, and the blue flames on his body suddenly blazed, painting the sky in blue. Maybe that was one of his hidden skills—one that would be his last retort in desperate times.
"I see. This is your most powerful skill!" Darren sighed in sudden comprehension of the Water Kylin's display of power. Since the aura continuously rose, he receded to somewhere far away. The collision that would reach such a high level was far beyond Darren's power. Even if he was in the Ancient Void Battlefield, he couldn't afford to handle it. Darren knew that if he insisted on staying on the battlefield the moment the Water Kylin released his power, he would be obliterated in no time.
Therefore, Darren flew as far as he could away from the battle and started to watch the combat between Finley and the law enforcer.
Judging from the look on the faces of both warriors and the exchange of powers that commenced between them, Darren could say that the battle was so heart-stirring. The law enforcer, holding a fiery-red spear, danced in the void while Finley flexibly evaded his attacks. The two were almost equal when it came to skills and powers. Thus the battle was a close match.
"Wow. That spear is too powerful. Fortunately, Finley has sufficient knowledge about the space rules, or else he would have been defeated. The five-star grand warrior's power is so remarkable," Darren sighed, with all of his attention at the battle between Finley and the five-star grand warrior.
At the moment, the law enforcer had lost the feeling of inner calmness because he discovered using his spiritual sense that Finley's bone age was just about sixteen years old when he had advanced to become a four-star grand warrior. Much more was, he was able to comprehend the supreme space rules at that very young age. As far as the law enforcer was concerned, no talent like Finley existed in the Medium Spiritual World, and maybe only the Upper Spiritual World stood one talent like Finley—he was definitely one of a kind.
Deep in his thoughts, he knew very well that such an extraordinary talent like Finley must be a potential holy warrior! As far as the rules said, a potential holy warrior was the candidate who had the qualities to become a holy warrior.
"Boy, where do you come from? Why have I never heard about you before?" the law enforcer asked Finley. Since he had felt Finley's extraordinary qualities, he stopped attacking him cruelly.
"If you could win against me, I will answer your question!" Finley replied brazenly. His capabilities were quite beyond the law enforcer's expectations.
"Well. I will show no mercy to you then! What I can promise you, though, is that I could keep you alive,"
the law enforcer said as he pulled his palms together in the air. Instantly, the fiery-red spear turned into eight spears, each of them looking like living beings—as if eight beasts from the ancient times.
Seeing the scene, Finley moved back, for he knew he was not yet a master when it came to space skills. He hadn't perfected the crafts and principles yet. The eight spears blocked his route of retreat and shot to drive him backward. In a short while, Finley was put in a hard-pressed condition.
"Chooooo!" Out of his fear, Finley took a deep breath. Then he sighed, "The power of the five-star grand warrior should not be underestimated. I must admit I admire that."
While he was saying that the eight spears hit him, Finley was on the verge of collapsing. He had no chance to resist the spears' power. He knew very well that this was not yet the most potent skill that the five-star grand warrior possessed. He was able to have that assumption, for he noticed that the law enforcer himself was just leisurely watching him fighting against the eight spears. Once the law enforcer joined the battle, the consequence would be disastrous—Finley was in dire trouble.
