An Lin made up his mind to survive until the very end. Another battle erupted not far away from Huang Quan City.
Laden didn't hold back this time, and his body became like a crimson vortex that sucked in the surrounding vital energy, causing the night sky to collapse.
Xiao Ze's dragon scales spread open, and the sky instantly became filled with thunderclouds. Boundless black lightning fell from the sky and engulfed the entire heaven and earth before crashing down upon Laden's body with destructive and engulfing power.
These black lightning bolts formed a black ball in a radius of one kilometer with Laden at the center. The ball continued to contract, and the might of the lightning crashing down upon Laden became more and more fearsome.
Countless crimson stars shimmered from Laden's palms, which transformed into a series of afterimages that vanquished the oncoming black lightning.
He had already unleashed his Blood Star divine ability, which possessed the power to shatter all techniques and shatter stars. He had even torn apart a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure with his own hands before, so he was not under much pressure to defend himself against Xiao Ze's black lightning attacks.
"There's no time to waste. Let me finish you off right now!" Laden's eyes were bloodshot, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
His hands, which were as dazzling as thousands of red stars, fiercely thrust towards the black lightning ball. Boundless blood-red light tore through the black lightning like sharp swords, stretching for tens of miles in the sky, dyeing the sky blood-red.
"Rip!"
The black ball of lightning was torn apart right down the middle before transforming into a streak of crimson light that hurtled toward Xiao Ze.
Xiao Ze swung his dragon tail toward the streak of crimson light with unstoppable force.
Boom! Another earth-shattering clash erupted between the two. It was no exaggeration to say that cultivators below the Spirit Nurturing Stage would be on the brink of death if they were to walk out of the green protective spell formation.
Laden's palms, which shimmered with countless crimson stars, crashed into the dragon tail, sending the black dragon flying again.
He didn't pause for even a single second as he chased after Xiao Ze before unleashing another full-force palm strike toward the dragon's body!
A terrifying boom erupted, and the shockwaves from the palm strike pierced through Xiao Ze, leaving a massive palm print over ten kilometers in diameter in the ground. Xiao Ze was also slammed into the ground from the sky.
"Little Xiao!" When An Lin saw this scene, he felt as if his heart was being squeezed.
Laden stood proudly in mid-air as a gargantuan crimson star suddenly appeared behind him. Its light transformed the night sky into a crimson sky imbued with boundless resentment.
"This is Divine Dao manifestation!" The Flying Sword God's expression shifted drastically as he yelled, "Even mighty figures at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage would have to pay a heavy price to unleash such power! The power it releases can really destroy heaven and earth. We have to use all our strength to stabilize the formation! "
When An Lin heard the words of the Flying Sword God, he became even more worried. His gaze lingered on the battlefield not far away.
Laden put his hands together, and a red ball appeared before him, which seemed to be imbued with the power of an entire star.
"You killed my subordinate, the Dark Poison Lord, so I'm going to skin you alive, pull out your tendons, and drink your blood dry! I'm going to let the world know that those who dare to offend me must die!"
"I'd like to see if your defense is strong enough to block my attack!"
Laden pushed his palms toward Xiaoze, and a red ball descended from the sky like a shooting star. The space around him congealed, and only the red ball, which was imbued with the most powerful dao intent of Laden's Blood Star, landed on Xiaoze's body, leaving a crimson trail in its wake.
Boom!
At that moment, heaven and earth crumbled as a devastating explosion swept forth for over fifty kilometers!
At the center of the explosion, a crimson sun erupted forth, illuminating the entire Gem State and the Dark Marshlands.
Terrifying shockwaves crashed into Huang Quan City, and the green defensive spell formation began to tremor violently. A series of cracks began to appear on the spell formation, which was powerful enough to defend against attacks from mighty figures at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage, but it was showing signs of cracking in the face of the shockwaves from the explosion.
An Lin clenched his fists as he stared intently at the center of the explosion. He unleashed his divine sense, which was comparable to that of a Return to Void Stage mighty figure, and he detected a life form panting heavily within a crater.
Xiao Ze … was injured!
An Lin's heart jolted as his body began to tremble.
He knew that Laden must have thought that Xiao Ze was the one who had killed the Dark Poison Lord, and that was why he had come here to exact revenge. Xiao Ze had taken the blame for him …
After the shockwaves dissipated, a gargantuan crater had appeared in the ground.
The black dragon over ten thousand feet in length had red blood seeping from its metallic scales.
It trembled slightly at the bottom of the crater, and it looked up at Laden in the sky with no intention of submitting.
Xiao Ze's proudest defense had been broken by Laden's power of the divine dao, but he still didn't choose to run. Instead, he unleashed his dragon might to its fullest extent, and he was just as proud and regal as ever.
"Oh? You're still trying to bluff at me? " Laden narrowed his eyes as he looked down at the black dragon with a faint smile. "To be honest, I wouldn't have been able to kill you if you had chosen to run away. However, you chose to fight me. What an idiot.
"Even if you want to run now, you won't get a chance. Just let me suck your blood dry. The blood of a powerful being from the Primordial Dragon Tribe must be very delicious. Perhaps it will be a catalyst for me to progress to the Dao Integration Stage … "
An Lin clenched his fists as his breathing accelerated upon hearing Laden's words.
He knew why Xiao Ze hadn't chosen to run away, and it was exactly because of this that he couldn't hold back any longer.
Even if Xiao Ze was his disciple, he was still his disciple!
Laden didn't waste any more words as he pointed a finger at Xiao Ze.
Whoosh …
The power of the blood star behind him surged forth like a tidal wave, and a crimson sword materialized at the tip of Laden's finger.
Even though the energy imbued within the crimson sword was slightly inferior to the energy imbued within the crimson ball, it was still peerlessly sharp, as if it could slice through all things in this world.
It was quite clear that Laden was planning to slice Xiao Ze's body in half with this attack!
Xiao Ze's defenses had been broken, and he wouldn't be able to withstand such a monstrous attack in a short time.
"Roar!" The black dragon's body sprang up from the crater, and it opened its cavernous mouth to blast forth a burst of ferocious black flames.
The crimson sword also fell at this moment, and it was as if a meteor had fallen from the sky, tearing through the black flames before descending upon Xiao Ze's head.
A sense of impending doom engulfed Xiao Ze's entire body as he stared at the blade of the crimson sword.
He turned toward Huang Quan City out of the corner of his eyes. All of his family and friends had left him, but there was still one person in Huang Quan City who was worthy of his concern. For some reason, he chose to turn his gaze toward the top of Huang Quan City in this perilous situation.
However, he didn't see that figure in that instant.
The crimson sword pierced through the air, and a white light flashed past.
The figure suddenly appeared before him. It was so close, so close that he felt as if he could touch it.
Just as Xiao Ze thought that he was hallucinating, the figure pulled out a mirror and aimed it at the crimson sword.
Boom! A crimson light illuminated the world.
Under the boundless crimson light, the crimson sword somehow changed direction and pierced through heaven and earth toward Laden!
