The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1172

Time trickled away. The ancestor of the Witch Doctor Sect did not move anymore after driving the boat to the center of Moonlight Lake. He stood on the bow of the boat and closed his eyes as if he were an unmoved statue of ten thousand years. Brittany thought about running away several times to notify her son so that he would not come over. However, the ancestor’s mental power seemed to have enveloped the entire area. She had a feeling that her every word and action were being contained. She knew that once she made a move, she would be suppressed by his wrath. On the other hand, the large-scale injury incident on the shore of Moonlight Lake earlier quickly spread to the ears of local authorities in California. Countless people called the police and ambulance for help, especially when the few young men who just landed on the ground had not come out until now. The news spread fast as if it had a pair of wings. Countless people were stunned! They even rushed to Moonlight Lake to watch the bustling scene. Soon after, California’s authorities sent manpower and ships to chase after the small wooden boat in the lake, wanting to capture the old man who had injured those people. However, something eerie happened. Unexpectedly, the authorities’ ships couldn’t get close to the boat at all! No matter which direction they traveled from, their ships would be blocked at a distance of one kilometer away from the boat. The one who led the brigade was none other than Craig Selby. His eyebrows were about to be intertwined together as this was the first time he had seen such weird phenomena. “Captain, something’s not right!” A team member who normally babbled said, “Could it be that we’ve encountered residual haunting?” Craig let out a cold snort as he said, “How can there be any ghost in broad daylight?” Another team member looked nervous as well. “Captain, such a phenomenon is indeed strange. It’s like there’s an invisible wall in front of us. Try and touch it. How is this possible? Could it be that the things we see now are all fake? Are we actually on the shore?” After touching it, Craig’s expression turned weird in that instant. “There’s indeed a wall here! However, the tactile sensation doesn’t feel right, it’s like touching…” Another person said, “It’s like touching a woman.” Craig shouted, “Get lost!” However, the situation was indeed not right. “We can’t handle this matter. We need to find support. Let’s find those people from the Divine Constabulary to handle it!” Soon after, Craig managed to contact Ted Summers from the Divine Constabulary. Then, he gave Sky Melvis a call before transferring the call to Alex Rockefeller. Ten minutes later, California’s authorities received an order from the higher-ups to seal off Moonlight Lake. All the cruise ships on the lake were recalled, and they were not allowed to sail off the shore. The tourists were evacuated as soon as possible. Craig said to his subordinates, “The old man on the lake has an extraordinary background. An incomparable great battle is going to unfold here!” At the same time, the gossip once again went viral in California, radiating all around. This time, the world of martial arts in California was alarmed. Rumor had it that an expert of Grandmaster level had made a battle appointment at Moonlight Lake of California. Once the news came out, all sides of forces were shocked. Countless martial experts, families of martial arts, and even experts from various sects headed to Moonlight Lake of California to watch the battle. Soon after, the news also spread to Beatrice Assex’s ears.
