Chapter 391 Yale VS Lina
"That won't be a problem, but you are going to lose anyway."
Lina feared that Yale would ask something pervert, so she wanted to know the request beforehand for the extremely improbable case that she would lose.
"Alright. You two look at our battle, and you may learn something."
Yale said those words and started to fly eagerly to start the battle.
"You seem too confident in your chances. Try to not lose too quickly, or your sisters would be disappointed. I am not going to restrain myself."
Lina was unable to see Yale's exact level, which she attributed to Yale being in a weakened state, but she knew that ten years ago he was still in the Sage Rank, so she didn't believe that his battle prowess could have changed so much given that he had been out of control. After all, even Yale's past life was just a Law God, so recovering those memories shouldn't be enough to cross the experience gap.
Sadly, she didn't consider that the experience that Yale obtained in the Timeless Border was far more valuable than ten years of training in the real world.
"I don't plan to restrain myself either."
Most men would be unable to battle seriously against a beauty like Lina, but Yale felt that restraining himself would be foolish. After all, he didn't have any advantage in that battle, and he also believed that restringing himself while battling would be disrespectful against any opponent.
Anyone who was at least a Law God wouldn't die as long the soul isn't attacked, and the body could be easily reformed with enough time, so Yale knew that it was impossible that he could kill Lina with only ice weapons.
Of course, by destroying the body, the soul was easier to deal, but that wasn't a battle to the death, so as long the other party didn't suffer any permanent harm, neither of them planned to hold back.
Yale wasn't a Law God, but his regeneration ability was even better, and although Lina didn't know that, she believed that Yale chose that kind of sparing because he had his means to survive.
Yale started creating a sword, and Lina did the same, but her sword was thinner than Yale's sword.
"I am a Water Essence God while you haven't even mastered the Water Law. There is no way your ice can withstand mine."
An instant latter both swords hit each other, with Yale's sword being broken instantly.
In a place full of ice like that mountain range, battling with ice weapons was a good idea since the cold weather helped a lot, but it also increased the difference between masteries of water.
Lina felt that Yale had overestimated himself when asking for that kind of battle with his lacking understanding of water.
Yale didn't reply to Lina's words but kicked her into her stomach sending her to fly away.
Yale's foot had been covered with ice which ended like a spear. If that had been a battle between mortals, a would be provoked by that kick would have been lethal, but Lina wasn't a mortal and recovered quickly as she didn't even suffer an injury.
"You are ruthless."
Lina was happy that Yale was someone capable of fighting against her or that would have been too boring, so those were words of praise, but before she could say anything more, more than a thousand ice spears were flying towards her.
Lina used her sword to break all the lances at a speed that Wyba and Aiwai were unable to follow.
The quantity of ice of her ice sword was inferior to the ice spears, but the quality was at another level, so the ice spears of Yale didn't have any way to resist.
However, Yale wasn't planning to defeat her with the ice spears. While she was dealing with them, Yale approached with a massive hammer and hit Lina lending them downwards.
It was true that the quality of Yale's ice was inferior, but if Lina didn't have a chance to block it, that didn't matter.
"How can your body be so strong? I am at the limit of physical strength with a permanent boost of the Life Law, but your strength should be impossible even with the Life Essence. Moreover, the way you battle blending different styles it is weird, and it is like if I have seen it before..."
As an Essence God, Lina obtained all the boosts to her stats, and in fact, she was at least a Law Master in all the battle-focused Laws. Moreover, she was a Law God in Martial Arts and Rod, while she was also an Essence God of Archery, Sword, Whip, and Spear. Thus, she could notice the strangeness of Yale's battle style.
"Then, let's show you a bit more."
Yale continued his rampage of attacks. His main advantaged for that battle were his superior stats and his everchanging battle style, while his main weakness was that his weapons were far weaker, and they didn't have too much effect on Lina even after hitting.
On the other hand, Yale would need to rely on his regeneration as a Timeless Sovereign if he were to be hit directly by Lina.
Although Yale seemed to be at an advantage with his unceasing attacks, he was still far from the victory.
Lina also knew that and was more focused on remembering where she had seen a battle style similar to Yale, instead of finishing that battle quickly.
Aiwai and Wyba couldn't understand that battle at all; especially they felt that Yale's battle style was completely different from before.
The battle had already lasted for twenty minutes while both of them continued attacking each other. Given that they were only creating weapons and attacking normally with them, the battle wasn't too tiring, unless counting mental tiredness.
Yale was completely concentrated in attacking while avoiding all the hits, and Lina was analyzing Yale's moves in detail trying to remember when and where had she saw them.
She felt that it was impossible that Yale won that battle after those twenty minutes because although she acknowledged that his battle style was impressive, battling with ice weapons played in Lina's favor, so it would be very difficult for Yale to achieve victory.
Yale had also noticed that fact. Due to being a Water Essence God, Lina was innately resistant to water and ice, so Yale's attacks were practically useless despite having superior physical strength.
"I remember now!"
Suddenly, Lina exclaimed as she remembered where she had seen that battle style before.
"The Battle God! I was a child who hadn't even started to practice when my father managed to invite him for sparring. My father, an Origin God, lost pathetically against someone whose level should have been comparable only to a World God despite his unique path of practice."
After seeing her father losing against the Battle God, she asked a lot about him to her father, but it had been so long ago, that she had already forgotten.
She learned that the Battle God had a unique way of practice and that although his level was only one step ahead of an Essence God, he was able to beat Origin Gods without too many difficulties.
"I supposed that something like that happened. The Battle God and I should be the only two battling like this. Well, maybe my mother also battles in the same way, but I never saw her battling before."
Yale spoke like if it wasn't something important, but for Lina that was the same as saying that there was a deep relationship between the Battle God and Yale.
"What is your relationship with the Battle God. Are you his disciple?"
They had stopped battling at that moment, and no one used the conversation to make a sneak attack.
"He is my grandfather. I trained with him in the Timeless Border."
Lina knew about Yale's father because he was her father's friend, but she had never heard of Yale's mother, and of course, she didn't know that the Battle God was the father of Yale's mother.
"It seems that you are telling the truth. In that case, I can't allow this battle to continue. If you are the true grandson of the Battle God, you must have an all-out battle against me."
Lina felt that it wouldn't have any value winning against Yale with that kind of battle where the conditions were too favorable for her. She didn't mind winning like that to win the bet, but given that Yale was the grandson of the man who beat her father, she wanted to have a proper battle to test herself.
Of course, Yale had chosen that method because he wasn't a true Essence God and in a real battle, he didn't believe that had any chance to win even if he didn't lose either.
"An all-out battle may provoke a disaster to this world. One attack. We will attack one with all-out power, and I will isolate this area in the time so everything will be undone. The winner will be determined in this win. Do you agree?"
Yale felt that it was his only chance, as he could use the Celestial Knowledge at full power for one attack, but a long battle was too much for him.
"What you said makes sense. I don't want to damage this world. Let's settle it with one all-out attack."
