Stalemate

The Abyssal Saint King calmly looked at Fan Lin.

He was indeed surprised by the attack last time and it was an attack that could hurt him if he didn't pay attention.

But that was it. The attack just hurt him.

It wasn't serious, not it was something that he couldn't take again.

But that was then, the kid in front of him was a lot weaker at that time.

The kid in front of him was stronger than before, at least 10 to 15 times stronger than before.

'That's interesting.'

A small smile formed on his face as he was filled with excitement and zeal.

"Shall we continue?" [Fan Lin]

Fan Lin challenged the Abyssal Saint King.

"Hahaha with pleasure, but I am not holding back now." [Abyssal Saint King.]

The Abyssal Saint King laughed out loud and prepared his Halberd to attack Fan Lin.

[Active state: --

Passive Immunity : Death ]

Fan Lin chose to take the attack head on with the Almighty Push.

'9000x Gravity'

A massive gravitation force was poured into the Abyssal Saint King but unlike before when he stopped to dismiss the attack, he ignored the gravity and attack Fan Lin.

The Gravity seemed to have no effect on him.

He once again swung the Halberd creating a simple sway that destroyed everything that remained.

Fan Lin once again has no choice but to teleport.

"I told you I won't hold back." [Abyssal Saint King.

"So have I." [Fan Lin]

[Active state - Halberd

Passive Immunity : Death]

Fan Lin's ninth ring shone again as he took the next attack head on.

He immediately stopped the Halberd from hitting his face and this happened in the place where he teleported to.

The Abyssal Saint King was just that fast!

The Abyssal Saint King did say he wouldn't hold back but Fan Lin was sure that the current Abyssal Saint King was slower that the one who pierced him some time ago.

Fan Lin's ninth ring gave him two skills.

The soul skill Plant life granted him Immunity and it was dual immunity, One active and one passive Immunity.

The active one was like the Energy body. Had to be activated first to use and to keep it active till the time you use it.

The passive one was also like the Energy body. It was a passive Immunity and didn't even require him to use the ninth ring to use it.

Once it was set to something, Fan Lin was immune to it till he died.

Meaning...

It was activated all the time!

And the most important thing: He can change the skills anytime he wanted.

The Abyssal Saint King looked at Fan Lin as he stopped his Halberd.

"Interesting." [Abyssal Saint King]

"Isn't it." [Fan Lin]

"Yeah it is, but I want more so no teleportation then." [Abyssal Saint King]

The Abyssal Saint King said as he backed away and with a swipe of his hands the space was sealed up and Fan Lin's teleportation become useless.

"Now you will fight me seriously."

The Abyssal Saint King stated.

Fan Lin looked at him and then used all the soul skills he had.

"I told you, I am here to kill you." [Fan Lin]

Both of them lunged at each other as the Abyssal Saint King used his Halberd to attack Fan Lin from all kinds of angles.

But since Fan Lin became immune to attacks from the Halberd, it didn't do any damage to him.

On the other hand, Fan Lin attacked with all of his soul skills and not a single of them was able to inflict any damages to the Abyssal Saint King.

The Abyssal Saint King either just dismissed most of the attacks or destroyed them.

As both of them were fighting with their all, time seemed especially slowly to them and in just a minute they had attacked each other thousands of times and yet both failed to do any substantial damage to the other.

By their first minute of fighting, the Abyssal Saint King had realised one thing.

His Halberd had zero effect on him and Fan Lin was not going to die.

Something was stopping him from dying or getting erased from existence because the Abyssal Saint King had used his destruction element on Fan Lin thousands of times and he should have just cease to exist or destroyed into nothing.

But here Fan Lin was, still fighting with him.

The Abyssal Saint King then tried different attacks without his Halberd but Fan Lin just didn't die, even though he had torn apart multiple limbs of his and yet Fan Lin was still fighting as if nothing happened.

Fan Lin had the same problem.

He had been fighting with the Abyssal Saint King while trying to damage him for all this time and nothing happened.

Absolutely nothing happened.

And he was running low on soul power, using all those skills cost soul power and he had already used one-hundredth (one percent) of all the energy that he had saved.

Which considering that he got a power boost and had nearly thousand times more soul power than any other Limit Douluo, it was a lot.

Both the fighters were in a stalemate and both of them backed down.

"I can't seem to kill you. You are weaker than me. I am getting bored with all the same attacks and no final judgement." [Abyssal Saint King]

"Instead of fighting you, now I am more interested in knowing why can't you die." [Abyssal Saint King]

"Well, I will resist with full force then."

Fan Lin replied calmly.

"You better do that." [Abyssal Saint King]

The Abyssal Saint King said while locking the space around Fan Lin. Taking away his ability to move.

Fan Lin still kept his emotionless face and dead calm eyes.

"Okay." [Fan Lin]

[Active state: Halberd >> traceable

Passive Immunity: Death >> Reality ]

He whispered and teleported from there.

The Abyssal Saint King immediately tried to stop him but couldn't.

He tried to find Fan Lin in the whole Abyssal plane but failed.

"Did he leave the Abyssal plane? I can't find him anywhere in it." [Abyssal Saint King]

....

Some unknown place in the Abyssal plane.

Fan Lin appeared in a hillside of somewhere he didn't know.

He was still in the Abyssal plane and was in hiding from the Abyssal Saint King.

[Active state: Untraceable >> --

Passive Immunity: Reality >> Untraceable]

He took his spirit souls back into his mind space and looked at his surroundings.

*Sigh*

"Haah, couldn't defeat him even after I powered up. Even wasted so much of my soul power on it."

'I should have escaped long ago.'

He thought as he calmed his mind and thought about advancing to the next stage.

'My first skill has around twenty times my current soul power capacity stored in it.'

'Breaking through the 99 rank is possible but I don't think that even that would hurt him. Fighting the Abyssal Saint King at my present condition is a waste of time and considering that he wants my body...'

'I need a sure fire way to kill him. But how?'

'Leveling up seems to the be only option but the rank 99 doesn't guarantee a complete victory and the moment I tried to ascend, the Abyssal Saint King will definitely sense the conjuration of the divine consciousness of mine .'

'Moving on...'

'My biggest problem is that my attacks are doing nothing to him.'

'With the ninth ring, he can't kill me.'

'I just need a way to damage him.

'...'

'A weapon.'
