Chapter 12821: Giant Sword Kills Giant Whale

Hearing this request, Ling Xiao's eyes revealed a faint smile. He had expected the other party to make such a request, so it was not surprising.

He smiled faintly, without a trace of hesitation in his voice: "Okay, if you win, I will give you 30 million mid-grade spirit stones, and my treasure that can instantly cast a holy pattern array will also belong to you."

As soon as Ling Xiao finished speaking, Saint Envoy Bai frowned slightly. He originally thought that Ling Xiao would hesitate or back off, but he didn't expect that the other party would agree so readily. This made him feel a little unsure, and he began to wonder if Ling Xiao had any unknown plans.

"Humph, this kid is pretending to be so relaxed. Is he trying to make me let down my guard?" Saint Bai thought to himself, but a sneer appeared on his face. "The more he acts like this, the more I will let him know that in the face of true strength, any tricks are useless."

Saint Envoy Bai no longer hesitated. He slowly raised his right hand, and a dazzling holy pattern suddenly appeared in his palm. Then, he opened his left hand at the same time, and another holy pattern appeared in his palm.

The two holy patterns seemed to have magical powers. They intertwined and rotated in the air, and finally merged into a complete holy pattern formation.

This holy pattern array emitted a powerful energy wave, as if it was going to cover the entire arena. Saint Envoy Bai showed a smug smile on his face, he knew that he had taken the lead.

Ling Xiao stood there quietly, staring at the Holy Envoy Bai's holy pattern formation, with determination and confidence flashing in his eyes.

"You are really cunning, old man." Ling Xiao had a sarcastic smile on his face, and his eyes revealed deep disdain. "You kept saying that you would not let me cast the Holy Mark Array instantly, but you secretly used the Holy Mark that you had drawn in advance. Do you really think you can hide this little trick from my eyes?"

After hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Saint Envoy Bai's face, but he quickly regained his composure.

He coughed lightly and said seriously, "All is fair in war, this is common sense on the battlefield. Moreover, I did not instantly activate the Holy Mark Formation. Although these two Holy Marks were drawn in advance, it still takes me some time and effort to truly weave them into a formation."

He paused, a smug look on his face, and continued, "This method is not something that ordinary people can master. Only those who have reached the level of a fifth-level Saint Mark Master or above can use it so skillfully. This is my ability, you can't stop me from using it."

After saying this, a mocking smile appeared on Saint Bai's face, as if he had already secured victory.

However, Ling Xiao was not shaken by this. He nodded and said calmly: "You are right, a level 5 Saint Mark Master does have this ability. Since you have used this method, I don't have to worry about it anymore."

Before he finished speaking, Ling Xiao suddenly opened his hands, and ten dazzling holy patterns instantly appeared on his ten fingers. These holy patterns seemed to have spirituality, and under his control, they quickly intertwined to form a large and complex holy pattern array.

There was a determined light in Ling Xiao's eyes. He knew that this duel was related to his dignity and the trust of the Holy Mark Sect.

If he wants to win, he must win vigorously and decisively, without giving the other party any face. Since he wants to help the Holy Mark Sect, he must show that he has the ability to do so. At the very least, he must prove that he is also a fifth-level Holy Mark Master. Otherwise, why would others let you touch their protective formation?
When Ling Xiao casually performed the fifth-level lower-grade Holy Mark Formation, Saint Envoy Bai's eyes flashed with disbelief and surprise. As a seasoned Saint Envoy, he had a deep understanding of the power and rarity of Holy Mark Formations.

The fifth-grade lower-grade holy pattern formation was out of reach in the eyes of most warriors, let alone seeing it with their own eyes. But at this moment, such a formation was easily performed by Ling Xiao, how could he not be surprised?
However, this surprise did not affect Saint Envoy Bai's fighting spirit. He quickly adjusted his mindset and moved his hands quickly. The holy patterns in his hands were like living things, flexibly intertwined together to form a large and complex holy pattern formation.

The patterns on the formation flashed with dazzling light, and it was obvious that it had reached the level of the lower fifth grade.

Following the low shout of the White Saint Envoy, countless holy patterns intertwined and eventually transformed into a giant blue whale. The giant whale was huge, exuding a cold and majestic aura, as if it could swallow everything. It opened its huge mouth, let out a roar that shook the earth, and then pounced towards Ling Xiao.

Facing this fierce attack, Ling Xiao showed no fear. He frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a trace of solemnity. He knew that the power of this formation was extraordinary, and that the opponent Bai Shengshi was indeed not simple. But he also understood that he had to go all out to defeat his opponent.

So Ling Xiao took a deep breath and quickly formed seals with his hands. Ten holy patterns condensed almost at the same time, forming a huge sky-high sword. The sword body emitted a dazzling light, as if it could split the sky and the earth. Ling Xiao tightly grasped the hilt of the sword and slashed it out fiercely.

To Ling Xiao, this sword formation is not just a simple combat tool, but also a reflection of his improved cultivation and wisdom.

Through day after day of practice and contemplation, he relied on his own understanding and comprehension to research this holy pattern formation on his own.

Although its sophistication may be slightly inferior to those formations that have been passed down for thousands of years and carefully polished by countless predecessors, the power it displays when fighting against the enemy is no less powerful.

With a loud bang, Ling Xiao's giant sword, with unparalleled momentum, slashed fiercely on the blue whale formed by the holy pattern.

At this moment, it seemed as if the entire space was shaking, and the tremendous power quickly vented out like a raging tide. Under the impact of this power, the blue giant whale let out a shrill roar, and its body was instantly cut into pieces, turning into countless spots and dissipating into the air.

However, Ling Xiao's giant sword also disintegrated after this attack, turning into tiny starlights that disappeared into the void. In this attack, both of them put all their strength into it. The collision of the sword and the whale was like the intersection of two stars, emitting a brilliant light.

The spectators' eyes were all focused on this moment, their heartbeats seemed to be synchronized with the rhythm of the battle, nervous and expectant. When they saw Ling Xiao's giant sword and the giant whale dissipate at the same time, they all had the same thought in their minds - this attack, the two fought evenly.

However, just when everyone thought that the battle would once again become stalemate, Saint Envoy Bai suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned extremely pale.

He looked at Ling Xiao in disbelief, his eyes full of shock and unwillingness, "You! We both have a fifth-level, low-grade Holy Mark Array, but your power is so much greater than mine!" His voice was full of hoarseness and trembling, as if he was accusing this unfair fact.
