In his eyes, even if the residual soul within Xu Yang could barely withstand Tuoba Hongyu's onslaught, it was just scraping by.
At the critical mont, with his strength at the peak perfection of the Myriad Manifestations Realm, he was sure to deliver Xu Yang a fatal blow!
Did they really think the pinnacle of the Myriad Manifestations Realm was just for show?
Clang!
Suddenly, a piercing thunder erupted above the firmant.
Tuoba Hongyu curved her palm, clutching power beneath it.
From that vast, blood-colored Eternal River, countless dazzling eternal sands surged forth as if miniature stars blanketed the sky, all roaring out at once, pouring into the blood token.
Whoosh!
In that instant, the blood token shone with a torrential bloodlight, drowning out Heaven and Earth.
Xu Yang instinctively squinted, even with the Cangxu Divine Eyes activated, he could only make out a blurred silhouette.
"Xu Yang, your ti of death has co!"
Tuoba Hongyu's voice was cold and harsh.
Boom!
Bloodlight blazed forth as the blood token transford into a terrifying blood sword, turning the world crimson.
Heaven and Earth trembled and twisted in terror!
"Die!"
Tuoba Hongyu wielded the blood sword, slashing down with thunderous force.
With the casualness of a flick, yet the sun and moon darkened, all color drained from the world—leaving only this brutal scarlet blade!
Xu Yang shook like a leaf in the wind, utterly unable to stop it.
The oppression from this strike—the overwhelming scope—was unmatched, as though transcending all limits!
In that instant.
The Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant erupted with spiritual radiance.
Swish!
An ancient tripod shot forth, its mouth spewing forth a surging tide of Purple Sun Heaven-Burning Fire, soaring violently upward to et the sword.
Chi chi!!
As blood sword t Purple Sun Heaven-Burning Fire, a tooth-chilling sound rang out.
Purple flas quivered violently, shattering again and again.
Yet the bloodglow on the blade was also being relentlessly ground away by the purple fire!
The Ancient Saint Cloud Tripod trembled incessantly, and under Gu Jun's command, it barely held back the terror of that sword strike.
Between the two, a deadlock ford!
Witnessing this, Tuoba Hongyu's eyes filled with shock.
"A tripod?"
She bit her lip until blood welled, disregarding everything to further shake the Heavenly Eternal River above.
Whoosh!
The entire Eternal River cascaded downward into the blood sword.
Clang!
The blood sword erupted with thunder, its might surging, and the Ancient Saint Cloud Tripod was instantly pressed down several feet.
Within the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, Gu Jun let out a muffled groan.
Xu Yang's face changed dramatically: "Teacher, are you alright?"
"I underestimated this."
"Hmph, did you truly think this old man was made of clay?"
Gu Jun's fury was roused; in a grave voice he said, "Boy, steel yourself. I'll shift us again montarily, but after this, I'll likely have to slumber for so ti once more!"
Xu Yang clenched his fists, icy intent surging in his eyes.
His teacher had recovered greatly in the Purple Fire Celestial Prison Forbidden Land, but now, to face Tuoba Hongyu's bloodline spiritual object, he was again forced to expend everything—the cost was unimaginable!
Boom!
The cloud patterns atop the Ancient Saint Cloud Tripod suddenly burst forth in dazzling light, as if the tripod was awakening from a long sleep—a savage roar rippled from its depths, shaking even the void.
A purple fire dragon shot out fiercely, soaring high, carrying a resolute montum as it smashed brutally into the blood sword!
Bang!
The fire dragon shattered, the blood sword struck as if by lightning, quivering and screaming, pouring out endless blood rain.
Tuoba Hongyu gave a muffled groan, spitting a blood arrow; her form wavered, barely able to stand!
Just then.
Guo Wenlu moved.
He disappeared from where he stood, shadow-like and spectral!
In a flash, he appeared right behind Xu Yang.
His face twisted with savagery, murder naked in his eyes!
"Little bastard, let's see what tricks you have left this ti!"
"Go to hell!"
Guo Wenlu's barbarian patterns ignited, True Essence boiling, Spiritual Power in his Sea of Consciousness surging outward—he was unleashing his mightiest burst and raising the strongest defense!
The burning barbarian patterns on his body ford a halo of golden light, within which flickered thousands upon thousands of Barbarian Race bloodline spirit markings—interwoven like beasts, like rivers and mountains, like myriad divine weapons.
The halo swept instantly down his arm, flooding into his fist!
Buzz!
Space beneath his fist caved in, fissures spreading everywhere!
Then, Guo Wenlu's fra flickered and he threw his all into a devastating punch!
"Formless Barbarian Dragon Fist!"
Guo Wenlu roared hoarsely, his fist whipped forth like a dragon, piercing the heavens.
Within a ten-thousand-foot radius, the world twisted and convulsed—nothing could bear a blow of such shattering force!
Even the highest clouds mirrored a ferocious shadow cast by the Dragon Fist!
Destroying Heaven and Earth, shaking the hearts of all!
Rumble!
The fist drove straight toward Xu Yang's back.
Above, Tuoba Hongyu forced herself to remain upright; her eyes flickered with complexity, then flashed with a hint of anticipation.
"He must be captured!"
Clang!
The Ancient Saint Cloud Tripod whirled without warning, swooping in with uncanny speed like a phantom.
The tripod overturned, its cloud patterns boiling and its purple fire writhing so that, seen from below, the mouth was like a nacing purple-black hole!
Buzz!!
A magnificent suction force erupted.
Guo Wenlu's whole body shook, eyes nearly bursting: "Damn it!"
"Break for !"
His barbarian patterns blazed even fiercer, his fist rampaged, seeking crazily to tear apart the devouring bindings!
"Hmph!"
Gu Jun suddenly snorted coldly, and the tripod seed to drag the very sky with it, suddenly pressing down!
With that, the sucking force reached its apex.
Bang!
The flesh on Guo Wenlu's skin burst, a heart-rending shriek broke out.
His rampaging fist, struck as if by thunder, exploded in midair!
Blood and shattered bone, mixed with a terrifying energy, were instantly swallowed by the tripod the mont they burst!
Guo Wenlu's body could hold up no longer, uncontrollably flying upward.
"No, no, no!!"
"Your Highness, save !"
He howled in agony, fighting desperately as his flesh split and poured forth blood.
Yet no matter how he struggled, it was of no use!
"I refuse to accept this~~~"
Spurt!
Guo Wenlu was completely swallowed by the tripod, imdiately subrged in a flood of Purple Sun Heaven-Burning Fire.
In a flash!
The screams were cut off!
The tripod shivered lightly, floating in the air as the fierce flas within slowly subsided.
The world around sank into a terrible deathly silence.
Tuoba Hongyu and Tuoba Shengwu were dumbstruck!
Guo Wenlu had died such a horrific death.
The dreadful spirit fire—Tuoba Shengwu could not even imagine the burning agony suffered in that final instant.
Swish!
The tripod darted into Xu Yang's chest, entering the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant.
Xu Yang slowly exhaled a heavy breath, his face pale.
Though he didn't take that punch head-on, the aftershocks still left him reeling.
"How much power does the residual soul within you still possess?"
Tuoba Hongyu narrowed her eyes, voice icy.
Xu Yang grinned: "Why don't you try again?"
Tuoba Hongyu's pupils contracted, she reflexively glanced at Tuoba Shengwu!
Gulp!
Tuoba Shengwu struggled to swallow, every hair on his body rising, scalp tingling.
I don't want to!
He even considered fleeing; his legs trembled uncontrollably!
Better safe than sorry!
What if…?
He dared not gamble his life on that slim chance!
Tuoba Shengwu, flustered, avoided Tuoba Hongyu's gaze: "Your Highness, h-he can't escape—with all this commotion, the powerful figures within Beixuan City are sure to notice!"
He had barely finished speaking.
Figures swept in from the distant horizon.
Even from afar, one could feel the mighty aura surging toward the clouds like rainbows!
At minimum, all were late-stage Myriad Phenona Realm experts!
Tuoba Shengwu's face overflowed with joy.
"They're here!"
"Xu Yang, you're trapped!"
Tuoba Hongyu exhaled in relief too.
Even if Xu Yang had more tricks, with so many Barbarian Race experts, escape was impossible!
She clutched a Celestial Jade Elixir; if worst ca to worst, she would rely on its formidable restorative power to once again unleash the Eternal Sand Blood Sword!
"Teacher, get ready to go!" Xu Yang drew a deep breath, speaking inwardly.
"Ready!"
Just as Gu Jun's voice sounded, a mysterious golden light abruptly shimred across the boundless cloudless sky!
Xu Yang was instantly dazed, as if witnessing the supre blazing sun overhead being gnawed away—missing a chunk!
"It's not an illusion?"
His eyes widened, dumbstruck as in a dream!
Tuoba Hongyu and all the newly-arrived Barbarian Race experts felt their hearts seize, together lifting their eyes to the heavens.
Whoosh!
The shattered sun, golden mystical light bursting forth from sowhere, in a terror far beyond words, spread across the firmant in a breath, laying a thick golden shield over the world—even the sun was obscured!
Countless tis more astonishing than even the first display of the Haoyang Heaven-Sealing Array!
"What's happening?"
"Hiss, the sun's been broken? Is this a heavenly phenonon or…"
"No warning at all—surely not a heavenly on! If it's soone's doing, who could possibly achieve sothing like this?"
"I have a bad feeling, as if sothing catastrophic is about to strike."
