"Cough, cough!"
Xu Nian clutched his chest, violently coughing up mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Although the palm strike had not shattered his Scale Armor, it had caused his internal organs to shake violently.
It nearly shattered them.
Had it not been for the great enhancent of his physical body from devouring that Emperor Snake,
that palm strike would likely have cost him his life.
Additionally, the dragon scale had absorbed most of the force, allowing him to cling to life.
But even so, the pain was imnse, and his injuries were not light.
"He's not dead?" Seeing that Xu Nian had actually withstood his own palm strike and was still alive,
the Dark Pope's face showed a hint of surprise.
Clearly, he had not expected the young man's body to possess such a strong capacity for endurance.
His Cultivation might not have reached the peak, but he certainly possessed strength comparable to a Five-star Battle Emperor.
That palm strike, even a normal Second and Third Stars Battle Emperor would not be able to withstand.
Yet this young man had only sustained injuries, how could it not surprise him?
Xu Nian also regarded the Dark Pope with gravity.
The Pope's strength was too great; it was a stroke of luck that he managed to block a hit.
To confront him would certainly not be easy.
"Senior Wentian, what should we do next?" Xu Nian quickly communicated with the Wentian Demon Sovereign via soul power.
At this mont, only the Wentian Demon Sovereign could help him.
Even if he sacrificed the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar, it would be of no use.
After all, the avatar was no match for this Dark Pope.
"Don't panic. That girl won't just let it go; she's bound to act against this so-called Dark Pope. Since she's here, she surely has co prepared," the Wentian Demon Sovereign responded.
Hearing this, Xu Nian said no more.
He hoped that everything Wentian Demon Sovereign said was true.
"Hum!"
Sure enough, at this mont, Lin Ruolan had also managed to stand up again.
A powerful wave of dark energy emanated from her body.
The Dark Pope's attention was drawn by the fluctuation radiating from Lin Ruolan, turning his head to look at her.
"Do you really want to fight ? You know very well that you're no match for right now. If you're willing to submit to , perhaps I could spare your life," the Dark Pope said to Lin Ruolan.
Currently, Lin Ruolan's strength was at most on par with a Four-star Battle Emperor, nowhere near powerful enough to be his opponent.
Thus, Lin Ruolan posed no threat to him at the mont.
"Who says I'm not your opponent? Do you really think I'd co here to find you without being certain of my strength?" Lin Ruolan said with a cold laugh.
Then, everyone saw a black fla mark erge from between her eyebrows.
And as this black fla mark erged,
A stream of black flas surged out of Lin Ruolan's body; as soon as this black fla appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply.
Indeed, it dropped.
The flas bore no heat whatsoever but rather exuded an intense feeling of cold.
And with the appearance of this cold, everyone nearby felt their souls shudder.
"How could this be? How do you control Hell Netherworld Fire?" The Dark Pope's complexion changed abruptly.
Clearly, the black flas emanating from Lin Ruolan made him feel intense fear.
"Hell Netherworld Fire, a terrifying dark fla said to be capable of contending with the Great Brightness Stone, existing only in Nine Nether Hell," Wu Fenglan said in surprise.
Being the forr Pope of the Luotian Sect, she was naturally extrely familiar with dark powers.
Xu Nian's face also revealed a hint of astonishnt.
He'd never expected Lin Ruolan to control such a power.
"This Hell Netherworld Fire is sothing I specifically prepared to deal with you. How about it, do you still think I can't handle you?" Lin Ruolan said with a sneer.
Hearing Lin Ruolan's words, the Dark Pope's eyes filled with raging anger,
and his gaze towards Lin Ruolan was filled with endless Killing Intent.
The Hell Netherworld Fire was the nesis of all soul power, and his current body was not a true body of flesh and blood.
If he were hit by Lin Ruolan's Hell Netherworld Fire, it would likely cause him great harm.
"Hmph, even if you have the Hell Netherworld Fire, it won't be easy to kill . Tianyao, today I will settle things with you once and for all," the Dark Pope snorted coldly and charged directly at Lin Ruolan.
Lin Ruolan looked at the approaching Dark Pope, yet a slight smile of mockery appeared in her eyes.
Her palms transford, and streaks of black flas surged out from her hands.
These black flas beca petals of flas, enveloping the Dark Pope.
"Break!"
The Dark Pope roared, and dark energy pulsated rapidly in his palm.
He faced the black flas head-on.
"Boom!"
The black flas kept exploding, creating a terrifying storm of flas.
The Dark Pope's hands, filled with dark power, tore the fiery tempest apart.
A palm violently grasped towards Lin Ruolan.
However, Lin Ruolan was not panicked in the slightest; instead, a sly triumphant smile flashed across her face.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, Lin Ruolan struck out with her palm, crashing directly against the Dark Pope.
At the sa ti, a horrifying wave of energy was felt.
Then, a powerful fire burst forth from Lin Ruolan's body.
In a flash, the fire transford into a black fire serpent.
The black fire serpent imdiately coiled around the Dark Pope's arm.
"Ahhh!"
The Dark Pope let out a miserable scream.
His entire right arm was quickly consud by the black flas.
"Hmph!"
But the ordeal was far from over.
Lin Ruolan summoned another four Fla Giant Snakes behind her, which darted towards the Dark Pope.
The Dark Pope was horrified and hastily retreated in terror.
The Hell Netherworld Fire was indeed too dreadful.
With his strength, he could not resist it at all.
Yet, he was still a step too late.
A Hell Netherworld Fire serpent wrapped itself around the Dark Pope, enveloping him completely.
"Ahhh!"
The Dark Pope scread continuously.
The body, ford out of blood, was instantly incinerated by the horrific flas.
"Whoosh!"
A fresh red heart burst through the flas, rapidly streaking towards Xu Nian.
"Xu Nian, be careful!"
Yan Sha and Wu Fenglan also urgently warned.
Clearly, the Dark Pope had been driven to desperation, and he was considering taking possession of Xu Nian's body.
Lin Ruolan was also startled, apparently not expecting the Dark Pope to make a move against Xu Nian.
If the heart penetrated Xu Nian's body, Xu Nian's flesh would be instantly controlled by the Dark Pope.
At that ti, the effectiveness of his Hell Netherworld Fire against the Dark Pope would be greatly reduced.
"Boy, your body is impressive, I'll take it," the voice of the Dark Pope ca from the heart.
The heart turned into a rapid streak of light, shooting towards Xu Nian.
However, just when everyone thought Xu Nian would be taken over by the Dark Pope, the corners of Xu Nian's mouth curled into a cold smirk.
His eyes suddenly turned pitch black.
Xu Nian abruptly extended a hand and firmly grasped the streaking heart.
