Chapter 551 - Year

“Haha.” Blood flowed down from the wound on his forehead. It flowed across his scar and into his mouth before overflowing and dripping down onto the ground from his charred chin. The blood slowly seeped deeper into the earth.

Li Huowang was in a bad spot. Everything has been useless so far. His talismans, his spine sword capable of creating a rift in between timelines, the bronze coin sword capable of slaying evil beings, or even his purple-tasseled sword that could cut through steel like butter. All of it was useless.

More importantly, even his techniques as a Sitting Oblivion Dao and the Ao Jing Sect were useless.

This was the first time Li Huowang had met such a troublesome opponent after coming to this crazy world.

He finally understood why Zhuge Yuan told him that the Sitting Oblivion Dao would not try to fight the Dragon Vein.

He had one more technique, the Cang-Qiang Ascension. It could work, but he had no idea where to find the utmost mental pain.

The familiar sound of air ripping came again. He saw a massive shadow lashing out to his head.

His body would disintegrate if he was hit by it.

Bam! Peng Longteng’s large body appeared in front of Li Huowang and caught the shadow.

The shadow was none other than the Dragon Veins made from the past emperors of the Qi Kingdom.

The emperors appeared to be glued together by nothing, but the impact suggested that the Dragon Vein was as strong as reinforced steel.

Numerous dragon claws pierced into Peng Longteng’s chest, but she was not afraid.

But no matter how strong she was, the Dragon Vein was leagues above her. The Dragon Vein compressed and expanded rapidly before batting Peng Longteng away.

Li Huowang took this chance to retreat out of the Dragon Vein’s attack range.

He was stuck in a grueling situation, but he did not give up. He was not alone, after all.

A lion-like roar came from the other side, which distracted Dragon Vein from attacking Li Huowang.

It was Xu Nian. Now that they were both in danger, they had no choice but to work together to survive.

Xu Nian nodded and stared at the Dragon Vein that was chasing Li Huowang. She raised her front paws and stomped the ground.

Her red fur grew bright as it started growing, making her body look like a lion dance.

The red furs spread out everywhere in the darkness as if they were looking for something. The darkness retreated with her standing in the middle of it.

She maintained that state for almost half a day. Li Huowang shouted out of desperation and anger as he was being attacked by the Dragon Vein. “What are you doing?! Stop spacing out!”

Li Huowang no longer looked like a human. Half of his face was torn away, one of his arms was broken, and a huge chunk of flesh on his abdomen was gone.

If it hadn't been for the "immortal" Peng Longteng tanking most of the attacks, he would’ve died.

But that was his limit. Li Huowang’s head was pounding, signaling that he could no longer maintain Peng Longteng’s materialization.

He had just shouted when Xu Nian moved. Her movement was beyond bizarre. She was charging toward the Dragon Vein, but there was still an afterimage of her at the original location.

But that was not all. Everywhere she moved, she would leave behind a red afterimage. The images linked together to form a single red line.

Li Huowang didn’t know what it was doing, but he knew that this was her ultimate move. Their survival depended on her attack.

Li Huowang sheathed the spine sword on his back, and Peng Longteng grabbed his injured figure.

When the Xu Nian clashed with the Dragon Vein, Peng Longteng threw Li Huowang toward the Dragon Vein.

Two beasts, one yellow and one red, clashed together. Bizarre changes occurred in everything that collided with the red light.

Li Huowang’s wounds healed rapidly before decaying the next moment.

However, Li Huowang wasn't the only one affected. The barren soil grew grass, and the stars in the skies started moving.

The same phenomena affected even the Dragon Vein. The ancient bodies of the past emperors regained their youth.

However, this was bad news to the Dragon Vein. Their bodies shivered as if they would separate at any time.
