BOOM!
The destructive Black Thunder Dragon and Ice Snow Sword Array Domain collided. Instantly, black thunder light and bluish-white cold air poured out in all directions, pulverizing the mountain peaks below and leveling a large area.
Terrifying!
Black-robed, Liu Xin, and others were secretly astounded by the aftermath of this duel. The strength of these two individuals was truly horrifying; their power had already surpassed everyone else and was beyond anyone else’s ability to interfere. Experts like them, at the Sky Apex Fourth Layer or Sky Apex Fifth Layer, would likely et their end in an instant if they faced Xu Ruoyan or Shentu Yan.
The shockwave dispersed, revealing two figures in mid-air. Half of Shentu Yan’s body was frozen by ice, and he bore five sword wounds inflicted by sword qi. The wounds were frozen and unable to heal.
"Shentu Yan," Xu Ruoyan said, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly, "it seems that even after absorbing the power of so many people, you haven’t beco invincible." Shentu Yan was heavily injured by her Absolute Snow Territory, yet after a head-on clash, she had still gained the upper hand.
"Really?" An eerie smile appeared on Shentu Yan’s face. "Do you think that’s all the power my techniques possess?"
CRACK!
The mont Xu Ruoyan’s pupils constricted, a fissure suddenly appeared in her Absolute Snow Territory. The tiny crack spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What?" Xu Ruoyan was taken aback. Before she could react, with a resounding BANG!, her Absolute Snow Territory suddenly burst open. Countless ice shards and streams of cold air scattered in all directions.
PFFT! As the Absolute Snow Territory exploded, Xu Ruoyan’s body shot backward. She only managed to stop after retreating a hundred ters, a mouthful of fresh blood spraying from her lips.
Conversely, Shentu Yan’s body was suddenly enveloped by a blood-red light that devoured the cold air entwining him. In an instant, the layer of ice covering him completely lted away, vanishing into nothingness.
"Haha! So what if you’re a peerless genius? So what if you’re Heaven’s favored daughter? In my presence, you will all ultimately turn into dry bones! In this Martial World, there is only one Dominator, and that is , Shentu Yan!"
Shentu Yan threw his head back and laughed maniacally, his face horribly distorted, bearing no trace of his forr deanor as a Martial World giant. After absorbing the power of hundreds of Top Sky Apex Strongs, he had beco even more frenzied and cruel. This was likely a side effect of swallowing so many Blood Gus; such a heaven-defying thod of rapidly increasing power had significantly eroded and damaged his sanity.
His wild laughter echoed. The next mont, Shentu Yan rushed out again, Thunder Light flickering in his palm, his True Qi unmatched in its Overbearing Style. Seizing the opportunity, he launched a barrage of ranged attacks at Xu Ruoyan.
Facing Shentu Yan’s surging strength, even Xu Ruoyan could only adopt a defensive stance. The shattering of her Absolute Snow Territory had inflicted great damage upon her.
But even so, it would still be impossible for Shentu Yan to defeat her.
Shentu Yan, of course, knew this well. He rely sneered. Then, suddenly, as he moved to pass Xu Ruoyan, he accelerated and rushed towards Ling Yin and Xia Yunxin, who were healing below.
"Stop him!"
Long Zaitian, Black-robed, and Duan Qingxu would not ignore Shentu Yan’s actions. They hurried to Xia Yunxin and Ling Yin’s side, activating their True Qi and unleashing various techniques in an attempt to block Shentu Yan.
"Dragon Fights in the Wild!"
"Sky Demon’s Tyrant Halberd!"
"Sword of Slaughter!"
Shouts echoed one after another as countless streams of True Qi intertwined, all aid at Shentu Yan.
"Scram!"
Without a glance, Shentu Yan swept his sleeve, firing a beam of thunderous light. In the blink of an eye, their combined attack shattered like thin paper. Long Zaitian, Black-robed, Duan Qingxu, and the others were left with charred chests, as if struck by lightning. Severely injured, they spat blood and were sent flying.
After crushing Long Zaitian and the others in a single blow, Shentu Yan ignored them and continued to dart with lightning speed towards Ling Yin and Xia Yunxin.
Damn it!
Elsewhere, Liu Feiyue and Lin Ya also paled suddenly at the sight. At this mont, Xia Yunxin and Ling Yin had no strength to resist Shentu Yan. If he attacked them, death was certain.
"Stop!"
Blue light flared in Xu Ruoyan’s eyes, and an intense cold burst from within her. Even her hands and feet froze to a purplish-black color. Her body clearly couldn’t handle such terrifying cold; she was rely forcing herself to endure. In that mont, Xu Ruoyan, her face devoid of color, resembled a snow goddess. Her raven hair fluttered, taking on a deep blue hue. As she ford hand seals, the cold flowed around her, and ice barriers of True Qi sprang up, completely blocking Shentu Yan’s path.
HUMPH.
The mont Xu Ruoyan blocked his path, a cold smile spread across Shentu Yan’s lips as he ca to an abrupt stop. Instead of attacking the ice barriers Xu Ruoyan had poured her energy into creating, he suddenly wheeled around and blasted back the way he ca!
BOOM!
Thunder surged as Shentu Yan thrust out both palms. Two Thunder Dragons, each a hundred-zhang in length, coiled and swept forward with earth-shattering montum!
His target, from the very beginning, had not been Xia Yunxin or Ling Yin, but Xu Ruoyan herself!
Xu Ruoyan hadn’t anticipated Shentu Yan’s sudden turn. She had no choice; if she didn’t intervene, Xia Yunxin and Ling Yin were dood. She knew how incredibly important these two won were to Ling Chen. If they died, Ling Chen would be devastated.
She had to save them, at all costs.
However, facing Shentu Yan’s surprise attack, Xu Ruoyan was caught completely off guard. She could only hastily mobilize her True Qi, but the defense she scrambled to form was shattered by Shentu Yan’s Thunder Dragon Palm Power before it could fully materialize. The defensive barrier instantly collapsed, and Xu Ruoyan herself was engulfed by Thunder Light. Her protective True Qi was torn to shreds, and deep gashes were ripped into her creamy, smooth skin. Her delicate body was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.
"How foolish!" Shentu Yan’s face was filled with mockery. "Those two pose no threat to , yet you expose your own weakness to save them. I thought it would take so effort to defeat you, but you people are too foolish, riddled with too many weaknesses. I seized upon them instantly, securing my victory."
After flying several hundred ters, Xu Ruoyan’s trembling body landed on a mountain peak. She used the Blue Moon Sword to steady herself. A dark blue-purple glow enveloped her; it was the Original Cold Air accumulated during her arduous Cultivation in the Ice Do Prison. This energy, absorbed from Ice Demons, was now running rampant due to her severe injuries, even turning against its host.
Seeing this, Shentu Yan once again threw back his head and laughed. Everything was proceeding according to his plan. Eventually, the Martial World would fall under his dominion!
BOOM!
Just as Shentu Yan was laughing, high above the rear mountains of Green Cloud Mountain, the wind and clouds suddenly began to surge violently without warning. Dark clouds gathered, and at their center, a terrifying vortex ford from densely rotating Heavenly Earth Energy.
From this vortex, four phantoms erged one after another. Each phantom possessed an aura that could swallow the heavens and dominate rivers and mountains, radiating wisdom, benevolence, greatness, and inclusiveness.
"Those are Saintly Figures! The manifested will of the Great Saints! Four of their phantoms have appeared at once!" Suddenly, soone recognized the origin of these phantoms and exclaid loudly.
The appearance of Saintly Figures was a cosmic phenonon, an event rarely seen even in a millennium. Such phenona do not occur without reason; clearly, soone was breaking through to the Sky Apex Realm, drawing upon Heavenly Earth Energy for an empowernt, thereby triggering this spectacle.
"Saintly Figures! How could they appear here? Wait, that location... It seems to be where Ling Chen practices!"
"Could he be receiving an empowernt from Heavenly Earth Energy? Did he attract these four Saintly Figures?"
"My God... Could this be the legendary Four Saints Enlightennt?"
"Four Saints Enlightennt! A phenonon of utmost rarity, unseen for thousands of years! Only the most supre geniuses in the world could trigger it! Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
