Panlong: Transcending from the Dominator of the Water System

Chapter 84 Baruch: We are the true heirs of the Four Divine Beasts

"You are the guardians of the seventeenth level?"

Gaia felt a bitter taste in her mouth as she stared at the face in front of her that bore a resemblance to Redding, her gaze momentarily lost.

"To be precise, you are the second gatekeeper. Regardless of the reason, the fact that you have come here proves your strength. Therefore, we will do our best as a sign of respect for you."

Baruch spoke softly, looking at Gaia and Mori with a scrutinizing expression.

Although it was their first meeting, Baruch and his companions already knew a great deal about the members of the Four Divine Beasts families.

Instructor Ninisha had explained to them that the Four Divine Beasts Clan, established by the Four Divine Beasts God, was arrogant, domineering, and had offended countless people in the divine realm.

Therefore, after the fall of the four divine beast gods, without the need for a ruler to specifically target them, countless people naturally took action against the four divine beast families. Among them, the eight major families and the eight Asuras were willing to fight them to the bitter end at all costs.

These sights left Baruch and his companions speechless. While they could understand the domineering nature of the main god families, the behavior of the four divine beast families still puzzled them.

When Gaia and her companions arrived at the Tomb of the Gods, they were quickly noticed by Palhouse. Although Palhouse wouldn't stoop so low as to personally attack them, he also didn't intend to give them a chance to reach the eighteenth floor.

Therefore, the gatekeepers that Gaia and Mori encountered were among the strongest, and they were perfectly capable of stopping them.

The only reason they were able to reach the seventeenth floor this time was that Baruch and Amanda wanted to fight them.

“You were born from the blood of our father, so you are also descendants of our father, just like us. Why can you ignore the current situation of the Four Divine Beasts family?”

Gaia took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, then looked at Baruch with a calm gaze and a hint of questioning in her tone.

"Hey, stop talking nonsense! The four of us are subordinates of the Sovereign, born of Heaven and Earth, and have absolutely no relation to your father!"

Amanda immediately retorted, her expression turning colder.

"It seems that you people of the Four Divine Beasts family have really reached this level, just as rumored. You are still so arrogant. It's a pity that we are now the true successors of the Four Divine Beasts, while you are just a bunch of pathetic worms."

Baruch's expression also turned cold, and he spoke in a blunt tone. Although their birth was actually related to the blood of Redding and the others, they had never seen the Four Divine Beasts, let alone had any goodwill towards the Four Divine Beasts family.

"you!"

Mori's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. Baruch's words not only humiliated them, but also the entire Four Divine Beasts family, and even the Four Divine Beasts' chief god, shattering their pride.

"Alright, enough nonsense, let's fight. If you can win, perhaps your family will be saved. Otherwise, just wait and see the Four Divine Beasts family perish."

Amanda spoke up directly, stopping Gaia and Mori from saying anything more.

"In that case, let's do it!"

Gaia took a deep breath, a resolute look flashing in her eyes. Then, her entire body was quickly covered in blue dragon scales, and after transforming into a dragon, she turned into a gust of wind and rushed towards Baruch.

"What a ridiculous attack!"

Baruch remained expressionless and wielded no weapon; he simply raised his right hand, which also transformed into a blue dragon claw.

"boom!"

The two dragon claws, imbued with terrifying physical power, collided rapidly, and the terrifying force directly tore a huge gap in space.

"boom!"

Gaia felt an irresistible force coming from her arm, and her whole body flew out uncontrollably.

In contrast, Baruch only trembled slightly, making the difference obvious.

"Such immense power... Is this the power my father and his brothers possessed when they were young?"

Gaia's arm trembled slightly, and her gaze toward Baruch held a hint of apprehension.

In the past, Gaia had fought against Asura-level powerhouses more than once. Back then, her physical strength and power were her proud advantages, but today, those advantages have vanished.

Even though the offspring of the Four Divine Beasts can also use their innate supernatural powers and their physical strength is not inferior, they are still far inferior to the real Four Divine Beasts.

Although Gaia now possesses dual defensive artifacts, the difference in power will not change because of the artifacts. Even if Gaia is not injured, she will still be knocked away.

"Gaia, watch out!" Upon seeing this, Mori's body instantly swelled up, transforming into a giant figure brimming with power, and flew towards Baruch's direction.

"Your opponent is me!"

Amanda snorted coldly, and a yellowish-brown halo rose from the ground. A huge crack instantly appeared on the ground, and a giant brown hand slammed towards Mori.

"not good!"

Mori's expression changed, and instantly, a yellowish-brown opening appeared on his body, activating his pulsating defense.

"boom!"

The next moment, Mori was sent flying in the opposite direction from Gaia, completely powerless to resist.

"Shh!"

Amanda merged directly into the ground, moving towards Mori amidst tremors.

"Morrie!"

Gaia looked in the direction where Mori had disappeared and couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"It's best not to get distracted when you're fighting me."

Baruch snorted coldly, and layers of thick blue-white mist appeared on his body, instantly sweeping towards Gaia.

"hateful!"

Gaia cursed inwardly, then streams of water surged from her body, and numerous tiny ice blades appeared, transforming into flying blades that rushed towards the mist.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

However, the moment the ice blade plunged into the dense fog, a powerful binding force emerged, and within the blue-white fog, a unique water-like space seemed to form.

In just a moment, Gaia's attack was completely reduced to dust and instead blended into the mist.

"What method is this?"

Gaia was startled. As a fellow Asura who cultivated the profound mysteries of the water element, she couldn't see through the other's secrets for a moment.

"Whoosh!"

Before Gaia could react, the mist instantly changed, shimmering with a blue halo. The mist transformed into water, which then formed a massive water column in the air, resembling a pillar soaring into the sky.

"boom!"

With a thunderous roar, the water, after accumulating, poured down like a waterfall, its terrifying pressure like a storm, completely enveloping Gaia.

"boom!"

In an instant, Gaia raised her arms, condensing a ball of blue light above her head, which then transformed into a massive white ice shield a hundred meters wide.

"boom!!!"

The terrifying torrent of water crashed directly against the ice shield, producing a series of booming sounds, causing the ice shield to tremble continuously.

"Crack!"

Just a few seconds later, the ice shield shattered into pieces under the impact of the water flow, which engulfed Gaia like a giant wave.

Amidst the waves, a whirlpool slowly condensed, and Gaia felt a sudden pressure of water gather over her entire body, as if she were instantly unable to move.

"How could I possibly lose like this!"

Inside Gaia's body, a drop of cyan water was instantly activated, and a large amount of cyan aura emerged from her body.

The power of the Water God erupts!
