Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

All Zen did in defence was to take a mere step backward. The lotus in the forefront burst abruptly and with that burst, preternatural fire like a red lotus shot up in its place. The temperature of the preternatural fire was so high that it could have easily burned everything in the world!

Even though Zen had jumped back in time to avoid the core of the explosion, the fire still affected him through heat and shockwave. He was pushed back about another twenty feet by the explosion of the lotus and hit the enchanted barrier heavily.

"I know that your life vitality is strange, and totally different from regular ones. You seem to have that weird capacity to engulf my lotus and win even against that move. Last time on the Hell Mountain, you have shown me your abilities. Did you honestly expect me to make the same mistake a second time?" Vale remarked with a cold smile. "Are you seriously under the delusion that you can defeat me only with your weird life vitality? Let me tell you this: you are day dreaming! I said that I would give you three years, and I agreed to do that because you weren't qualified to challenge me then, and you aren't qualified to do so now. Defeating you was a piece of cake for me then! Today as well, you are going to be defeated in a second!" Vale continued his monologue.

While he was talking, Vale had been calling out extra lotuses continuously. The lotuses collided with Zen's six demonic phantoms. And even though he himself was speaking slowly, his homicidal killing intent focused into the lotuses was growing stronger and stronger. Suddenly, amidst the ones fighting the phantoms, another lotus appeared and bloomed slowly in the middle of the fighting platform.

These flowers Vale was calling out were normally as large as a man's hand, and bloomed in several different colors, with each color possessing its own different, unique feature and power. For example, the red lotus could afflict great damage by an explosion; and the icy lotus had an overwhelming capacity to freeze things. However, the one which had just appeared in the middle of the fighting court was totally different. It was white, and much larger than its fellow lotuses fighting the phantoms.

The white lotus began to grow fast. It had started off smaller than a penny, and had reached the size of a fist; then it grew as large as a barrel. And after a while, it transformed itself into a huge white bloomer about ten feet wide and five feet high.

Vale smiled as he stared at Zen and walked casually on the huge white lotus step by step, without the least bit of effort showing up on his face. When he reached the center of the white lotus, his spirit suddenly grew ten times higher than before. Now, he looked even more overwhelming and his aura seemed to have been multiplied.
