Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1586 - 443: The Final Battle (1) (Countdown to Finale: 7)

Creatures drawing near to it have the potential to transform into mythical beings, directed by the influence of faith's power.

This represents the pathway known as Faith Evolution.

However, for Lanlan, the Faith Evolution route has already diverged into something unique.

It serves as both a Faith Totem and a genuine living entity.

Its shape and capabilities stem from its own essence, without needing external origins; it exists in truth.

Yet, there's that old proverb: "Three people can create a tiger."

Lanlan's abilities are straightforward and clear, but as they've circulated among the Endless Sea's inhabitants, they've morphed beyond their initial state.

These tales include overblown elements, granting each of Lanlan's skills traits that were never part of them before.

Whether the exaggerations hold truth or not is irrelevant.

The key point is that the Endless Sea's creatures fervently believe in these nonexistent traits of Lanlan, and the faith power they generate proves sufficient to turn those traits into actual reality!

Now, fiercer and more savage whirlpools have become Lanlan's enhanced Vortex Water Refusal, infused with the characteristics bestowed by the Endless Sea's denizens!

The counterstrike isn't merely reflected anymore; it surges back with greater force than the initial blow!

"I am the King of the Sea, and the sea is at my command!"

Watching the horrifying surge, more intense than his own assault, barreling toward him, the King of the Sea bellowed, while 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 realm, where every drop of water obeyed his ironclad rule, heavy and unyielding.

The massive surge, bounced back by the Vortex Water Refusal, halted in its tracks right away and then shattered beneath the King of the Sea's intent, reshaping into a colossal water throne towering a million meters, 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 shifting from burning hatred to outright scorn.

"Pure Water Spirit, you stand no chance against 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 bears no connection to water, so none of your techniques can touch me."

Hearing the King of the Sea's words laced with faint mockery, Lanlan kept a steady, unflappable face.

The faith pathway 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 ways, such strikes fall under the foe's easy dominance.

Similar to how the earlier refracted blow via Vortex Water Refusal got swiftly neutralized by the King of the Sea.

Employing alternative techniques would yield the same outcome.

Except...

"Do you truly believe this exhausts my full might?"

A sly spark flashed in Lanlan's eyes.

In the following instant, a grander wave of faith power ascended skyward, bathing Lanlan's whole form in light.

Within the faith power's glow, yet another enigmatic energy started to emerge gradually.

Sensing that energy, the King of the Sea's eyes narrowed a fraction, and his earlier poise vanished from his features.

"How is this possible?!" he bellowed, lunging forward without a second thought.

Limitless seas sprang into existence from nowhere, morphing into raging torrents that slammed toward Lanlan, laden with destructive might, intent on wiping Lanlan out immediately.

Beneath that overwhelming pressure, the nearby space seemed to solidify, and the crushing force ripped open the emptiness, echoed by a barrage of thunderous blasts.

The whole Endless Sea churned violently under that immense watery force, as if blending into the devastating onslaught commanded by the King of the Sea.

"Why not?" Lanlan pointed leisurely, drawing back the rebounding waters from the Endless Sea, then pointed once more to deploy Vortex Water Refusal against the onslaught, "The waters of the Endless Sea aren't yours to wield."

"Boom!"

A deafening blast rang out as the King of the Sea's strike got swallowed anew by the Vortex Water Refusal's force, converting into a mightier counterattack 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 barrage as effortlessly as prior, instead rapidly shifting into a water current to weave through the void, reappearing elsewhere in a flash.

Yet the water throne he'd assembled moments ago drowned instantly in the colossal swells.

Through endless growls and earth-shaking detonations, two fearsome laws clashed and erased each other in the emptiness, ultimately vanishing into oblivion.

"The Way of the Sea Oath?!" Reforming his body, the King of the Sea lost all calm; he fixed his stare on Lanlan, eyes dancing with bewilderment and alarm, "Why do you possess two paths?!"

"Why do I possess two paths?" Lanlan offered a faint smile, as the energy encircling him crested to its zenith, radiating outward, and the entire Endless Sea burst into jubilant cries.

Suddenly, myriad water streams from the Endless Sea gathered behind Lanlan, forming an enormous breaker that barreled at the King of the Sea.

This advancing breaker resembled a watery cyclone, spinning ferociously, with every droplet honed like a knife edge, capable of shredding all in its path.

The Pure Water Spirit's innate ability, its most devastating water assault technique, Water Rolling Skyfall!

Right then, this dread-inducing blow shimmered with myriad runes and interlaced luminous trails, evidently bolstered by the faith pathway's aid.

Yet simultaneously, it drew support from a different source of power.
