Chapter 1584: Chapter 1583 The Storm is Approaching

And today at Buddha Sea, waves are crashing against the Giant Buddha.

Above the maritime domain of Buddha Sea, a layer of dark clouds as black as ink looms, bearing the tendency of an impending storm.

"Pop, pop!" The waves churn, rising hundreds of meters high, capable of easily smashing a person to death. But when hitting the Giant Buddha, they could not stir up any turmoil.

The Giant Buddha faces the sea, one hand in a Buddhist gesture pointing towards the sky. The other hand open and placed upon its chest, embracing all beings.

Its eyes seem godlike, gazing at the distant seas.

The corners of its mouth slightly upturned in a gentle smile, seemingly pitying all beings!

At this moment, if one looks closely, they could see a person standing atop the head of the Giant Buddha.

Standing there is a warrior from Yinghua Country!

At his waist hangs a sheathed sword, shrouded in Dark Qi that emits faint wails and howls, as if the souls of the wronged are crying.

At this moment, he has his eyes closed, waiting for something.

This person is none other than a Grandmaster-level swordsman from Yinghua Country, the owner of Asura Demon Sword, Life-taking King!

Today, Life-taking King has not come alone; besides him, following the dueling rules, he has also brought a few people to witness the fight.

One of these people is his apprentice ’Shui Xiuluo,’ a woman who is a swordsmanship prodigy. An orphan whose parents were murdered, she was adopted by Life-taking King and became his apprentice.

She is Life-taking King’s only apprentice! Both his first and last disciple!

At the moment, she wears the attire of a Yinghua Country female warrior and stands atop the distant seas, looking at the Giant Buddha, her mind possibly filled with thoughts.

Apart from her, another onlooker is Clan Chief Miyamoto Muteki of the Miyamoto Clan!

Miyamoto Muteki is the strongest among the Ten Deputy Alliance Hierarchs besides Life-taking King. Their Miyamoto Clan is a family of sword and knife makers, and the greatest swordsmith in the history of Yinghua Country, Miyamoto Musashi, is one of their ancestors.

He too loves swords and knives and naturally shares a kinship with Life-taking King, a Grandmaster-level swordsman!

Life-taking King did not invite the other Vice Hierarchs, but he did extend an invitation to Miyamoto Muteki, asking him to come and watch the battle.

Apart from Life-taking King’s apprentice and his close friend Miyamoto Muteki, there is also a woman who has come.

This woman is Life-taking King’s partner. However, she is just an ordinary person, having been with him for fifty years, now an elderly lady with white hair. Although Life-taking King used some herbs to help her ease into old age, she still looks no longer young.

At the moment, she stands on a faraway boat, looking into the distance.

The ones Life-taking King brought with him are only these three people!

The folks on the Martial Arts Dark Web also sent someone as arranged.

They still sent Miss Ying.

Miss Ying departed last night, traveled on a chartered plane, and arrived in Yinghua Country. She reached the Buddha Sea Area early in the morning.

She also rented a boat and at this moment, stands on the deck of the distant boat.

Of course, she did not come alone. Old Ming, an Earth Realm martial artist, is following her.

Since the battle hasn’t started yet, Miss Ying is not in a hurry to record videos.

She is currently paying attention to messages on the Martial Arts Dark Web.

It is now nine o’clock, and the betting time has ended.

Miss Ying eagerly checked the total betting sums on the Black Market Section.

Opening it and seeing, even she is greatly shocked!

The total bets on Lin Dong winning amount to 2.3 trillion!

As for the bets on Life-taking King winning, the amount is even more terrifying, a full 3.1 trillion!

The total adds up to 5.3 trillion!

Many countries don’t even reach this amount for their GDP in a year!

This time’s betting has broken the record! It’s the highest amount ever since the establishment of the Martial Arts Dark Web!

"Miss, we’re being a banker for Master Lin this time on the Martial Arts Dark Web. Isn’t this a bit irrational?"

At the moment, Old Ming couldn’t help but say when he saw this terrifying amount.

The rule for them as a banker is that if the side they bet less on wins, they will pay out the money, and the remaining funds will belong to the Martial Arts Dark Web.

Of course, if they lose, the Martial Arts Dark Web must cover the deficit.

To put it simply, if Lin Dong wins, then they will take 2.3 trillion out of the 3.1 trillion bet on the Life-taking King to pay out, leaving 0.8 trillion for the Martial Arts Dark Web.

Naturally, if they lose, they would need to cover a deficit of 0.8 trillion.

For them, losing would be a huge sum of money for the Martial Arts Dark Web.

Moreover, according to their data analysis on the Martial Arts Dark Web, they calculated that the Life-taking King has a slightly greater chance of winning.

This is also why Old Ming is particularly worried!

However, as soon as he said this, Miss Ying asserted, "Old Ming, I always have faith in Master Lin! He never lets anyone down!"

"And based on my long-time interactions with him, I’ve understood his character thoroughly. If he wasn’t confident, he wouldn’t challenge the entire Martial Arts World of Yinghua Country!"

"After all, this is about the honor of the Martial Arts World of Dragon Country, which he values highly!"

"If he has the confidence to challenge the entire Martial Arts World of Yinghua Country, how could he possibly be stopped by a mere Life-taking King?"

"As for our data analysis, I think it’s outdated. Those data, in my opinion, are just superficial things and don’t explain much..."

Having said this, Miss Ying laughingly said, "Old Ming, over the years, you’ve also saved quite a lot of private money. I advised you before to join me in betting on Master Lin’s victory."

"Bet a hundred or two billion; did you follow through??"

Old Ming: "..."

He was somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry and said, "Miss, for your sake, I’ve bet a billion to support Master Lin. As for a hundred or two billion, I’d rather forget about it."

To be honest, a billion wouldn’t be a great loss for him.

But a hundred or two billion, even for him, would cause some heartache. That amount of money could buy a lot of Dan medicines.

So in the end, he only bet a billion.

Seeing this, Miss Ying said with a smile, "Old Ming, I can only say you’ve missed an opportunity to make money."

Old Ming was laughing and crying at the same time; he still held to his belief in the data.

He felt data wouldn’t lie.

As for that one billion, he was already prepared for the possibility it could be lost.

Miss Ying didn’t say anything more at this point and was just waiting for the arrival of Lin Dong.

At this moment, a small boat was seen slowly approaching from a distance.

That small boat was moving towards the Giant Buddha in the Buddha Sea without anyone rowing, yet it moved as if by itself, carried by an unseen wind.

One could see two people sitting on the boat, utterly at ease. One of them appeared to be in his sixties, while the younger one looked to be just over twenty.

The two of them, at this moment, were sitting on the boat playing chess!

"How calm Master Lin is, to be playing chess at such a time!" Old Ming couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw this scene.

Indeed, the old and young pair sitting on the small boat and playing chess were Lin Dong and Li Zhaixing!
