Chapter 660: The Battle of New Year’s Eve 660 begins

Time is like fine sand, slipping through the crevices of fingers as one tries to grasp it.

In a blink, it was two days later.

And this day was New Year’s Eve.

At the moment, Lin Dong was saying goodbye to his master, Daoist Master Qing Shan, and a few women.

He saw worry written all over the faces of Bai Jue, Qiao Bing, and Tang Mu, and he couldn’t help but reassure them:

”Don’t worry, nothing will happen. I’ll be back in time for the New Year’s Eve Dinner at eight at night!”

Bai Jue nodded, ”Okay, Dongzi. I’ve prepared your favorite Shi County Potato Starch Dumplings, Shi County Meatballs, Shi County Free-range Chicken, and Roast Goose.”

Qiao Bing also said, ”I’ve also practiced a few signature dishes, all set for you to come back and eat.”

On hearing this, a ripple of warmth passed through Lin Dong’s heart, and he nodded in reply, ”Okay, I’m really looking forward to dinner tonight.”

He was ready to head for the Shi County Xiangyang Reservoir.

Tang Mu quickly added, ”Lin Dong, remember about my parents.”

”Of course,” Lin Dong nodded, having not forgotten about it.

Before leaving, his master Daoist Master Qing Shan also specifically reminded him, ”Disciple, one is not guilty by being innocent, but by possessing a jade, one may be accused of a crime. There are certain things you’d better not reveal.”

Lin Dong nodded, ”Master, I understand.”

Lin Dong was also aware that the New Year’s Eve’s battle was going to be live-streamed on the Martial Arts Dark Web.

Of course, there would be no audience present at the scene.

The official Martial Arts Dark Net had intervened in this matter and did not allow others to watch the battle at the site.

If others wanted to watch, they could only do so through the live room of the official Martial Arts Dark Web forum.

And this live room could not be reshared externally, nor could videos be saved, nor could it be broadcasted outside.

This seemed rather domineering!

But this power, the Martial Arts Dark Web, definitely had the domineering strength to enforce this.

No one dared to defy or challenge their authority!

Lin Dong could not prevent them from live streaming.

This battle was destined to be watched by countless martial artists on the platform of the Martial Arts Dark Web.

Lin Dong decided that when being live-streamed, he would not use any techniques from the Nine Shift Longevity secret or the Devouring Technique.

These two methods were too against the heavens. If exposed in the live stream, they might attract some covetous gazes.

This was also the reason why his master warned him with the phrase ’guilty of possessing a jade.’

At this moment, the live room on the Martial Arts Dark Web had already opened.

Countless people surged into the live room to watch.

The number started at tens of thousands and within a few minutes, it skyrocketed to several hundreds of thousands.

About ten minutes later, it had ballooned to three million!

These were three million martial artists.

It is known that a city in Dragon Country has only about tens of thousands of martial artists, at most.

And now, here were a full three million! And the number was still climbing.

At this moment, the live broadcast on the Martial Arts Dark Web showed the location of this New Year’s Eve’s battle—the Xiangyang Reservoir.

Lin Dong, Corpse King, and Ghost King had not yet arrived at the scene.

In the live broadcast, there was a calm expanse of water.

Three million martial artists were quietly watching that water surface, waiting for tonight’s protagonists to arrive.

”Whoosh~~~~”

Just then, the live broadcast suddenly changed.

The camera panned towards a direction of the reservoir, and within the frame, an old man appeared.

That old man was wrapped in a black robe, with dense fog swirling around him. Within that fog, numerous ghost shadows flitted around him.

He walked atop the reservoir’s water surface, stepping lightly upon it.

As he appeared, the live room was instantly abuzz with discussion.

”That’s the Ghost King!”

”With half-step Earth Realm’s strength and the ability to use Ghost Manipulation Technique, he’s said to be able to control Evil Ghosts at will.”

”Ghost Manipulation Technique, that’s some serious evil magic. However, it’s seriously formidable. Not only can it control Evil Ghosts to aid in battle, increasing combat power, but it can also gather wealth by alchemizing small imps. Many stars have sought small imps to change their fortunes, becoming wildly successful. Of course, there’s always a corresponding price to pay.”

”With Ghost King’s strength making him one of the top five on the Dragon Ranking, he is not to be underestimated!”

”...”

The camera stayed on Ghost King for a good ten seconds.

However, no one could see his face clearly because it was shrouded in black fog.

This could be considered as a form of ’blur,’ although the battle would be live-streamed, their faces would not be shown.

The martial artists in the live room would not be able to see their faces.

”Swoosh!”

Suddenly, the live room’s camera view shifted again.

It moved from the Ghost King to another location.

In the frame, a single coffin appeared.

An emaciated old man, carrying a coffin, was seen walking on water from a distance.

Like Ghost King, his face too was enveloped in a black fog, obscuring his features from view.

However, everyone could guess his identity by his rigid form and his stiff steps.

Undoubtedly, he was the Corpse King!

”Why is the Corpse King carrying a coffin? Could it be that it contains his zombies?”

”I heard the Corpse King has mastered corpse manipulation technique and has five half step Earth Realm strength Silver-eyed zombies.”

”But there’s only one coffin. Can one coffin hold five Silver-eyed zombies?”

”...”

The crowd was abuzz with speculation.

As if the Corpse King knew the curiosity of the martial artists watching from behind the live room, he spoke in a hoarse voice:

”This coffin contains nothing! For it is specially prepared for Master Lin!”

”I intend to make that Master Lin into a zombie inside this coffin! From then on, he will be my undead servant, forever denied transcendence!”
