The battle progressed as time passed.
Everyone realized it.
The strength of the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior was indeed terrifying.
Every move seemed to be accompanied by the wailing of ten thousand ghosts.
It even possessed a power that could shake the Soul.
However, the young girl's speed was truly fast.
As the saying goes, in all the martial arts of the world, only speed cannot be countered.
If you can't even touch the hem of your opponent's clothes, how are you supposed to fight?
The entire ancient battle platform was quite vast, not small at all.
This left the young girl with plenty of room to maneuver.
Jun Xiaoyao watched and nodded inwardly.
The young girl did not choose to meet force with force; instead, she chose to maneuver around him, waiting for an opportunity.
This proved she possessed combat awareness and skill.
One must realize that the cultivation of this Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior was several Realms higher than that of the young girl.
On the other side, the 10th Prince Yu Huatian of the Great Yan Divine Dynasty was also closely following the battle.
Yu Huatian also recognized the young girl's extraordinary nature, a strange black light flickering in the depths of his eyes.
In the arena, seeing the young girl continue to maneuver,
the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior grew angry and could not help but shout:
"Little girl, is hiding all you can do?"
"I'd like to see how you hide from this!"
The Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior roared in anger.
Then, the black ghost-Face markings on his body suddenly began to writhe.
Endless black mist surged forth, billowing out.
In an instant, it filled the entire ancient battle platform.
Immediately, the young girl felt as if ten thousand ghosts were shrieking inside her mind.
Shaking her Soul and mind.
"That is a special technique of the Xuan Ghost Tribe; the black mist permeates the area, forming a domain."
"Any creature that falls within it will have their Soul shaken!"
Seeing the black mist spread, some nearby Cultivators whispered in realization.
To counter this move from the Xuan Ghost Tribe, the only way is to leave the area covered by the black mist.
However, the ancient battle platform had limited space, so it was impossible to retreat.
"It's over now; there's no point in playing anymore."
"Exactly. That young girl was just stalling for time."
"It's a pity the black mist is so thick that we can't see what's happening inside. I wonder how that young girl will die?"
In the surrounding seats, some Cultivators discussed the situation, shaking their heads, believing it would be over soon.
Inside the black mist-covered ancient battle platform,
the young girl's speed slowed down.
This was because her Soul was being affected.
"Heh, you lowly brat, can you still run now?"
The Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior revealed a bloodthirsty, ferocious grin.
The young girl had actually dropped to one knee, appearing unsteady.
The Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior reached out, his fingernails extending like sharp black blades.
He was about to crush the young girl's skull!
...
On the ancient battle platform, the black mist began to gradually dissipate.
Everyone waited for the outcome, as if they had already envisioned the young girl's mangled corpse.
However, when the black mist cleared, everyone's Faces were filled with astonishment!
The young girl was kneeling on the ground, holding a bone blade, panting heavily as if she had exhausted much of her energy.
Meanwhile, the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior's head had been pierced and pulverized, his corpse lying in a pool of blood.
"How is this possible?"
Many Cultivators were utterly stunned, as if they could not believe their own eyes!
The Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior had actually lost?
That petite young girl had actually won?
Everyone felt it was inconceivable.
It defied their understanding.
Some even wondered if the Xuanxing Arena had secretly used some underhanded methods.
But they immediately shook their heads.
The Xuanxing Arena had stood for so many years.
At the very least, its reputation for integrity was well-established; it wouldn't resort to fraud.
Yet, they truly could not fathom how the young girl had managed to defeat the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior.
Just moments ago, the ancient battle platform had been enveloped in black mist.
The Xuan Ghost Tribe's black mist had the ability to suppress the Divine Soul and block sensory perception.
Therefore, few people could see what was happening inside.
However, Jun Xiaoyao and Yu Huatian had both seen it.
"Could that power be..."
Jun Xiaoyao wore a thoughtful expression.
He had indeed seen what transpired inside.
The Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior had originally intended to grab the young girl's head.
However, the young girl's beast-like vertical pupils had instantly turned silver-white.
And then, the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior had frozen in place!
Although it was only for a fleeting instant.
He had indeed frozen there, unable to move.
He was like an insect trapped in amber.
Seizing the opportunity, the young girl had whipped a ghastly white bone blade from her tattered sleeve.
The bone blade had pierced directly through the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior's skull, shattering his Primordial Spirit!
Once that instant passed,
the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior's body regained its ability to move.
However, he had already collapsed onto the ground.
That was the entire process, occurring in a single instant.
"I didn't expect this; she really has brought me some surprises and unexpected developments."
Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
If he wasn't mistaken,
the power that had frozen the Xuan Ghost Tribe warrior was none other than the power of time!
Jun Xiaoyao had Cultivated the Time Book.
He also had some understanding of the Dao of time.
Time, while a very high-level power,
was not entirely unfathomable or impossible to touch.
However, to truly wield and unleash this power,
one's Realm must be very high.
Even though Jun Xiaoyao had already stepped into the Great Emperor Realm, he had only just begun to comprehend and understand this power.
As for utilizing it, he only had Divine Abilities related to time and space, such as the Time Dao Sword and the Seven Seals of Forbidden Immortals.
Yet the young girl's cultivation Realm was only at the Quasi-Emperor stage.
Just moments ago, she had revealed her talent for the Dao of space.
That alone was surprising enough.
But now, she had even unleashed the power of time.
Although it was only freezing one person for an instant in a small area, it was still terrifying enough.
Could this young girl truly be capable of cutting space with one hand and cutting time with the other?
To possess both time and space talents simultaneously,
would be somewhat Heaven-Defying.
Regardless, Jun Xiaoyao was becoming increasingly interested in this young girl.
He had a feeling she held significant secrets.
The Boundless Starry Sky was truly full of hidden talents!
On the other side, a strange light also appeared in Yu Huatian's eyes.
There was even a faint hint of fervor in his gaze.
This young girl was far more powerful than any of the war slaves or death warriors he had acquired before!
Her talent and potential went without saying!
"Someone, I want this young girl!" Yu Huatian said.
"Understood!" An attendant nearby nodded and went to relay the message.
Yu Huatian was considered a regular customer of the Xuanxing Arena.
Whenever he took a liking to anyone in the past, he would simply pick them up and leave.
Even if others had already reserved them, out of respect for Yu Huatian's Face, Su Yong would always yield to him first.
So, Yu Huatian naturally had no need to worry about that.
A strange light appeared in his eyes.
"That type of innate ability reminds me of a tribe buried in ancient history."
"However, I will need to obtain her and investigate carefully to be certain."
Yu Huatian muttered to himself.
His tone suggested that the young girl was already firmly within his grasp.
