Chapter 361: Chapter 292 Waiting

On the online livestream, the two combatants quickly moved to a position where the camera couldn’t capture them.

Countless netizens watched in amazement at the scene, not knowing what had just happened as the fighting parties disappeared.

"What’s going on? Why can’t we see them anymore?"

"Did they take the fight outside?"

"What on earth is happening? Isn’t this a bonus event for the martial arts battle?"

"Is the reversal of time that Xingxiao spoke of really true?"

While many netizens were still clueless, filled with curiosity, doubt, and surprise about the recent fight and dialogue,

Lin Xing and Xingxiao were exchanging blows while moving at high speed, quickly triggering new reports.

Lumberjacks in a forest captured the aftermath of their clash on the battlefield.

A forest as far as the eye could see had turned into ruins, with a large number of trees either sliced open, uprooted, shattered, or even turned into giant swords and clubs, as well as other materials of twisted shapes... all lying askew on the ground.

Residents of a small town also witnessed the two figures, one after the other, passing through their town.

And in a blurry video taken by a townsman, one could only vaguely see a blur slicing through the sky, causing the clouds to surge wildly.

However, the townsman insisted that with the naked eye, two figures were seen, but for some reason, only one appeared on the video.

As the afterimage moved forward, there were thunder-like sounds from the sky, and one could see shockwaves piercing through the clouds.

And below, in the town, several buildings had collapsed.

When people went forward to rescue, they found no casualties in the collapsed buildings, but the original residents seemed to have undergone some sort of change in appearance and physique.

...

In the central part of White Eagle Country, within a city,

the figure of the Great Bright Buddha slowly emerged from a base station.

He reminisced about his experience on the Martial Arts Battle Field.

During the fierce clash between Xingxiao and Lin Xing, when they left the battlefield one after the other, one of the Primordial Spirits split by Lin Xing... was reabsorbed by him as he pursued Xingxiao.

The other stayed on the battlefield, guarding the Divine Dragon Gang Leader and Taihe Sect’s Yun Hezi.

The Great Bright Buddha thought to himself, "It seems that Xingxiao indeed holds more weight in Lin Xing’s heart, to the extent that he chose to pursue Xingxiao, disregarding me, allowing me an easy escape."

"Looking at it now, with the self-preservation skills of Xingxiao and Lin Xing, it is very difficult for others to take them down."

"But if the two of them continue to entangle and drain their vital energy and spirit... the opportunity for others to intervene will gradually increase."

The Great Bright Buddha, recalling Xingxiao’s performance in battle, thought to himself, "So Xingxiao realized he couldn’t suppress Lin Xing swiftly and secretly as originally planned, that’s why he changed his battle tactics, first using words to divide the nations of the present world, provoking Lin Xing, and then..."

At that moment, a myriad of exclamations erupted from the streets.

The Great Bright Buddha looked up to the east side of the city and saw the sky and earth in the distance tinted yellow, as if a sandstorm was sweeping in.

And with the bursts of thunder and the dispersion of shockwaves, two figures could faintly be seen flashing momentarily at the center of the storm.

The Great Bright Buddha narrowed his glasses slightly: "Here they come."

...

On the outskirts of the city.

Swordmaiden pursued the storm not far away, her mind always fully engaged in sensing the battle between Lin Xing and Xingxiao.

After witnessing the entire battle up close, her heart was filled with surging fighting spirit, yearning to fight either Lin Xing or Xingxiao.

But as the fierce battle raged on, intervening did not align with her path as a mighty warrior.

"Damn, to encounter such an epic battle today," she cursed.

"Lin Xing! Xingxiao! Whoever wins today, I’ll make sure to crush him next time."

...

Outside the Martial Arts Battle Field.

The area initially designated for various media representatives, staff, and political figures to observe the fight was now a scene of chaos.

Everyone was in communication with the outside world or being contacted by it.

Jing Shiyu was also incessantly reaching out, both to keep abreast of the situation involving different countries and Lin Xing, and to respond to the changes in current public opinion.

Nearby, Gu She Fairy stood watching the chaotic scene, a slight frown on her face as she seemed lost in thought.

Bai Yiyi couldn’t help saying, "Can you put me down now?"

Gu She Fairy smiled faintly, looking at Bai Yiyi and asked, "Are you Lin Xing’s master?"

Bai Yiyi puffed up her chest and said, "I personally led Lin Xing to the path of cultivation. Let me tell you, if he comes back and finds out you’ve disrespected me like this, you’re done for!"

Just then, Jing Shiyu looked up and said to Gu She Fairy, "Come with me to the Martial Arts Battle Field, and let’s take the Divine Dragon Gang Leader and Yun Hezi out."

Gu She Fairy raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Why should I listen to you?"

Jing Shiyu said, "It depends on whether you want to place your bet on Lin Xing or Xingxiao. If you’re willing to help now, I assure you that all your previous actions can be wiped clean."

Gu She Fairy stared at her quietly, then suddenly laughed, "Girl, you’ve got guts."

Jing Shiyu glanced at her phone and said, "White Eagle Country has already sent people to snatch the Divine Dragon Gang Leader and Yun Hezi. I’m giving you one minute to decide."

"You should be able to see that even if Lin Xing doesn’t win, he definitely won’t lose."

"You wouldn’t want to be targeted by an enemy who can be immortal, intangible, and ever-changing, would you?"

...

Under the watchful eyes of the entire world.

Information about the fierce battle between Xingxiao and Lin Xing flowed continuously from all over White Eagle Country.

Some of it came from eyewitness interviews, some from blurry footage shot by the public, and some from the analysis and speculation of various experts.

Over the course of a day and a night, the traces of their battle stretched from the central-southern to the northwestern part of White Eagle Country, then plunged deep into the ocean, disappearing completely from public view amidst violent storms.

In the process of their prolonged fight, they caused unprecedented severe destruction.

Numerous roads, railways, towns... all sorts of private homes and public facilities were violently destroyed, as if hit by a series of natural disasters.

Aside from property damage, while there were no fatalities, a large number of people were injured, rendered disabled, or afflicted with strange ailments causing loss of coordination.

Many citizens expressed their outrage at such actions, hoping the government would stop the combatants and make them compensate for the damages.

However, whether it was the governments of the world or the major sects from Mirror World, even to this moment, none had expressed any opinion.

It seemed everyone was waiting, waiting for the outcome of this battle and what direction it would take, and then deciding on the next steps based on the victor’s results.
