"I wouldn't dare to threaten you. Given my current situation, I have no choice but to take a risk."
Lu Ming sighed.
"You … you …"
Gu Mo was so angry that his bones were trembling. He gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll help you one more time. Let me tell you, this is the last time. Besides, I don't have much energy left. I might not be able to help you block that kid's attack. Take care of yourself!"
"Senior, you just need to block a part of his attack for me. Leave the rest to me."
Lu Ming said happily.
Gu Mo could only agree.
Boom!
At that moment, the Tianhong Saint appeared above Lu Ming. His violent aura kept pressuring Lu Ming. A Six-Clawed Divine Dragon circled above the Tianhong Saint's head. It looked mighty.
"Kid, do you have any last words? I'll give you a chance."
The Tianhong Saint said coldly. He was full of confidence.
If he attacked with all his strength, even an ordinary Level Four Heavenly God would be crushed to pieces, let alone Lu Ming.
"Let's do it!"
Lu Ming's eyes were full of fighting spirit. The six Divine Fires in his Dantian jumped. A crimson golden armor appeared in front of Lu Ming.
At the same time, nine ice chains flew out and surrounded Lu Ming.
Qiuqiu turned into a pool of liquid metal and climbed onto Lu Ming's body. It then turned into armor on Lu Ming's body.
In Lu Ming's mind, Gu Mo's body glowed. A stream of energy flowed into Lu Ming's body and formed a layer of defense.
"Petty tricks. Go to hell!"
The Tianhong Saint shouted coldly. His eyes were full of murderous intent.
Roar!
The Six-Clawed Divine Dragon roared and grabbed Lu Ming with one of its dragon claws.
He wanted to kill Lu Ming in one move.
Originally, in the Kongxuan School, it was forbidden to kill fellow disciples, especially when Lu Ming was a Saint.
However, Lu Ming had asked to take the Tianhong Saint's attack. This way, it wouldn't be within the restrictions of the sect.
This was also the reason why the Tianhong Saint agreed. He could take the opportunity to kill Lu Ming. Otherwise, Lu Ming would hide in the sect and it wouldn't be easy for him to kill Lu Ming.
"He's attacking. Can Lu Ming block it?"
"Lu Ming is dead!"
Everyone's gaze was focused on Lu Ming as thoughts flashed through their minds.
Boom!
The golden dragon claw was like a small mountain, bombarding Lu Ming's body. The first to bear the brunt of the attack was the ice chain.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Almost in an instant, the nine ice chains shattered and exploded.
"What a terrifying power …"
Lu Ming was secretly taken aback. He then felt an incomparably powerful force, as though it could topple the mountains and trample the seas, pressing down on him.
"Block it for me …"
Lu Ming let out a long howl and unleashed all his power.
However, when the Dragon's Divine Dragon's claw pressed down, the rocks under Lu Ming's feet exploded and crumbled. A huge pit appeared. Lu Ming was blasted into the huge pit. Smoke and dust filled the air, and Lu Ming's figure couldn't be seen anymore.
"How is it? Is Lu Ming dead? "
"He's definitely dead. With his cultivation, he'll definitely die if he takes the Tianhong Saint's attack."
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the huge pit. They wanted to know Lu Ming's situation.
"Lu Ming …"
Yue Linglong, Wu Zifeng, Ouyang Qingxiang, and the others also stared at the huge pit with worried expressions.
"Hmph, this brat is finally dead."
A smile appeared on the Tianhong Saint's face.
He had absolute confidence in that attack of his. Although he had not used all of his strength in that attack, he had used eighty percent of his strength.
Even with 80% of his strength, he was confident that he could kill Lu Ming.
However, in the next moment, the smile on the Tianhong Saint's face disappeared and was replaced by disbelief.
"That's … Damn it, how is that possible?"
The Tianhong Saint roared in anger.
"Cough, cough, cough …"
At this moment, a dry cough came from the huge pit. When the smoke and dust dissipated, the crowd could finally see the situation clearly.
They saw Lu Ming lying in the huge pit, covered in blood. He was also coughing up blood.
Lu Ming was seriously injured, but he wasn't dead.
"He's not dead. He's not dead. He's not dead!"
"Oh my god, with his cultivation, he took the Tianhong Saint's attack head-on and didn't die. How is that possible?"
Many people cried out in disbelief.
However, Yue Linglong, Ouyang Qingxiang, and the others were ecstatic.
"This brat is indeed powerful …"
Lu Ming coughed up a few more mouthfuls of blood and circulated his divine power to heal his injuries.
He was indeed seriously injured in the previous attack. The Tianhong Saint's power was too strong. His own defense collapsed in an instant. Qiuqiu was also injured. It turned into a bracelet and attached itself to Lu Ming's hand.
If not for Gu Mo's help, he definitely wouldn't have been able to withstand the Tianhong Saint's attack and would have been killed.
However, in the end, he managed to withstand the attack. He had made the right bet.
"Damn it, damn it. Kill!"
The Tianhong Saint was enraged and revealed a frenzied killing intent. He took a step forward and an earth-shattering force blasted towards Lu Ming.
"Tianhong, you're despicable …"
Ouyang Qingxiang had been staring at the Tianhong Saint for a long time. When the Tianhong Saint attacked, Ouyang Qingxiang also attacked. She slashed out with her sword and a sword radiance blocked the Tianhong Saint's attack.
"Tianhong, you made a bet with Lu Ming on one move. Now that you didn't kill Lu Ming with one move, you want to make a second move. Do you have the right to be the Kongxuan School's Saint when you go back on your words?"
Ouyang Qingxiang shouted angrily.
The Tianhong Saint could only stop.
Many people had seen the bet between him and Lu Ming. Now, he couldn't go back on his word even if he wanted to.
"Tianhong, you've lost. Hand over the Divine Dragon Aspect Art."
Lu Ming struggled to get up and looked at the Tianhong Saint.
The Tianhong Saint's face was terrifyingly gloomy. He stared at Lu Ming and said, "Lu Ming, I've underestimated you this time. However, it's impossible for me to hand over the Divine Dragon Aspect Art. Change your condition. I'll try my best to satisfy you."
The Tianhong Saint actually wanted to go back on his word.
"I don't need to change my condition. I want the Divine Dragon Aspect Art. We agreed on it during the bet. Tianhong, are you going back on your word now?"
Lu Ming said.
"You …"
The Tianhong Saint's murderous intent had reached its peak.
He had agreed to Lu Ming's bet because he didn't expect to lose. He thought that he would definitely win. That was why he agreed to Lu Ming's bet.
"Lu Ming, don't push your luck," the Tianhong Saint said coldly.
The Tianhong Saint said coldly. His threat was obvious.
"What do you mean push my luck? What a joke. I'm just getting what I deserve. I risked my life for it. Tianhong, hand over the Divine Dragon Aspect Art. "
Lu Ming said loudly.
The Tianhong Saint gritted his teeth. He wished he could chop Lu Ming into pieces.
However, so many people had seen it today. If he went back on his word in public, it would damage his reputation greatly. It would also be disadvantageous for him to compete for the position of the Kongxuan School's Sect Leader.
What right did a person who went back on his word have to be in charge of the Kongxuan School?
