Chapter 1799 Defenses All Around
Graham dashed out of the bubble of slowed time, an attack already in motion as he did so. Fake weight added into his fist through the Dragonheart Gauntlets added so much force to the swing that Graham couldn't believe it.
The moment he arrived outside the bubble, he met with a bit of resistance in the air, but not enough that it could stop him.
The man that moved so very slowly outside the bubble suddenly came to life and moved incredibly fast as well, swinging down his giant ax as he did so.
The two metal weapons clashed and the world shuddered from the force of their impact.
Graham felt the attack rebound throughout his body, the force seemingly wanting to break all of his bones.
The other man felt the rebound as well, as though he had suddenly struck something so hard that his attack was meaningless.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
He quickly pulled back and checked his ax and was thankful that there were no chinks from the ax that had been torn off.
Quickly orienting himself from the clash, the man went back into battle with Graham.

The Dragon Emperor arrived directly on top of the two soldiers who were fighting Hao Ya and attacked Hao Ya.
Hao Ya noticed the attack coming for her and quickly turned her body illusory once more as the lightning bolt from the Dragon Emperor passed through her body.
The Dragon Emperor's eyes narrowed for a moment, seeing how easily Hao Ya was dealing with their attacks by simply becoming ghost-like. Several thoughts passed through his head at once and he struck out once again.
The wind whipped toward Hao Ya, nothing dangerous, but extremely forceful.
Hao Ya remained where she was, the wind doing nothing to her.
At the same time, the Emperor made a soft ringing sound that floated toward Hao Ya.
A hairpin that hung on her head, holding the flowing locks of hair glowed softly and Hao Ya realized what was happening.
The Dragon Emperor realized as well.
Suddenly, the light seemed to float out of her, turning into what looked like a sun. Dark and white clouds appeared around the sun, and the world seemed to turn blue in the process.
As if what they were looking at was the sky itself.
The sun's glow vanished, turning into nothing more than a golden illusory orb that swiftly fell down toward Hao Ya. As it fell, it grew, becoming larger and larger, until it was much larger than Hao Ya herself.
It passed through her, putting her inside of it. Once she was safely inside, the golden orb glowed brightly, to the point that no one could stare at it anymore.
Then, just as quickly, the light disappeared and Hao Ya was no longer there on the ground.
The world returned to light and color. Sound returned as well, but the sound of fighting had long since stopped. People stared down at what had happened and were too surprised to do anything.
The Dragon Emperor quickly got a hold of himself and turned around to look at the others. He saw the leader with the ax and gave him an order.
"Kill that man!" he shouted and turned his head toward Liz who had stopped to stare at what had happened to Hao Ya as well. Without waiting even a second, the Dragon Emperor poured Immortal Qi into his spear and sent out another massive bolt of lightning flying toward Liz.
Liz reacted quickly, slowing down time as soon as she could. But no matter how slow time was, lightning still moved too quickly for her to get out of the way.
She was all but certain that she was going to die.
Graham noticed the attack barely before the lightning shot out and could do nothing.
As he was distracted by the lightning, the leader with the ax raised his ax up high, pouring all of his Immortal Qi, Intent, and whatever else he could into this single attack.
Even as Graham turned his head around to try and react to what was happening, the man came down with the ax, going for Graham's head.
Neither the brother nor the sister were in a situation where they could protect each other or themselves.
Both attacks landed on Liz and Graham, respectively. And at the same time, two massive illusory beasts appeared on both of them.
A White Tiger's illusory head appeared from Liz and roared, instantly destroying the lightning bolt.
At the same time, phoenix wings appeared from Graham's back, covering him and protecting him from the attack.
Both the leader and the Dragon Emperor watched with furious gazes as their attacks that were meant to kill the two ended up being for naught.
