As the abnormal pressure gradually enveloped the entire space, the dark aura that was scared away by Yun Lintian's Vermilion Bird flames suddenly rushed toward Xing Chen and madly drilled into his body.
The next thing Xing Chen did was raise his hand, and Lan Cao's remains in front of him were suddenly twisted together and squeezed out a droplet of gloomy black blood that exuded a powerful coercive aura… It was no other than the Devil Emperor's blood.
"I'll show you the true power of the Devil Emperor bloodline." Xing Chen uttered coldly and sucked the droplet of blood into his mouth.
In the next moment, his aura rose sharply and even went higher than Lan Cao's aura.
Yun Lintian looked at Xing Chen with a frown as he perceived the change in the latter's body. It was similar to the moment he burned the divine beast's blood.
At this moment, Xing Chen's body kept twitching along with the cracking sounds of bones as his body shape gradually changed. The pair of skeleton wings behind him grew larger, and his body became twice bigger.
"He has completely been devoured by the Devil Emperor's blood." Hongyue frowned slightly as she looked at the scene. "You better finish him quickly."
Without waiting for Hongyue to finish her sentence, Yun Lintian had already executed the Shadow Step and appeared behind Xing Chen before brandishing the Heaven Piercing Sword down with all his might.
A golden sword beam tore through space and descended upon Xing Chen's head.
Boom!
However, the result didn't go as Yun Lintian thought. At the critical moment before the sword could land, the skeleton wings behind Xing Chen instantly closed up, completely blocking the blow.
At the same time, a ray of pitch-black beam abruptly shot out of a newly appeared dimensional rift and rushed toward Yun Lintian, who was retreating into the distance.
Yun Lintian's expression changed drastically when he saw the incoming black beamed. The power inside the beam gave him a sense of life-threatening danger. If he was hit by it, he would definitely die.
Without hesitation, he executed the Shadow Step a few times to avoid the beam. However, the more he dodged, the more black beams appeared. It was to the point he could no longer avoid it.
The White Dragon Spear silently appeared in Yun Lintian's left hand as he quickly thrust it forward, welcoming the black beams. At the same time, he didn't forget to brandish the Heaven Piercing Sword, releasing a golden sword beam toward Xing Chen.
BOOOM!
The moment the spear collided with the black beams, a massive energy burst exploded out, instantly collapsing the surrounding space. Everyone in the scene was instantly swept away by the enormous impact. Even Lauya's profound shield could not withstand it.
Amidst the explosive spatial noises, Xing Chen's gigantic body stood tall without being affected.
His bloody eyes seemed to have only Yun Lintian in them.
At this moment, he stretched his claw-like hand out, and the black light immediately circled around it. A black shadow appeared as his hand swung in the air, sending a massive pitch-black beam that tore through the space toward Yun Lintian.
Seeing the black beam coming, Yun Lintian didn't even care about stabilizing himself on the ground. He shouted loudly, and the blood origins of the Vermilion Bird, Divine Phoenix, and the White Tiger God were immediately burned vigorously within his body.
His aura rose sharply as he threw the White Dragon Spear that transformed into a white dragon toward the incoming black beam. At the same time, he raised the Heaven Piercing Sword high and swung down with all he had.
With a loud bang, the entire space immediately collapsed. Dimensional rifts madly appeared and disappeared all over the place.
"Struggle with all your might. I want to see how long you can resist me!" Amidst the explosive noises, Xing Chen's cold voice echoed and pierced into everyone's ears.
A pitch-black devil claw suddenly emerged from the rift and arrived before Yun Lintian, who had just been blasted away.
Although Yun Lintian was injured by the shockwave, he didn't lose his perception. The moment the claw appeared, he had already activated the Shadow Step.
Craaack!
Space in a radius of about a hundred meters, along with Yun Lintian's afterimage, was torn into pieces by the black devil claw.
At the same time, Yun Lintian had already appeared about three meters away from Xing Chen. With a growl, he smashed his sword right toward Xing Chen's head as a combination of Vermilion Bird and Divine Phoenix flames ignited.
In that instant, Xing Chen flashed a grin as a black shadow appeared between himself and the incoming sword. "Go to hell!"
BOOOM!!
The Heaven Piercing Sword clashed with the black devil shadow in the air, but instead of being blasted away like before, it had merely paused for a moment, followed by an explosive ignition of flames.
Not only was the sword not blasted away, but its might and speed had also increased several times, instantly dispersing Xing Chen's power away. Carrying the blurs of pitch-black space, it smashed straight toward Xing Chen's head.
"Burning Heaven!"
Xing Chen thought he could play Yun Lintian like a toy as he had released more than twenty percent of the Devil Emperor's blood power. Moreover, he believed that Yun Lintian had already reached the limit. No matter how powerful he was, he would definitely be unable to withstand his absolute power.
Who would have thought that Yun Lintian's strength could have increased again several times in an instant?
Xing Chen hurriedly withdrew and retreated speedily. His skeleton wings rapidly swung out, trying to form a shield… However, the wings had merely traveled halfway through, it was immediately firmly suppressed back by the overbearingly immense power coming from the Heaven Piercing Sword.
Following the cries of Vermilion Bird and Divine Phoenix, the tyrannical scarlet flames exploded with intense light.
"Arghhh!"
Xing Chen was smashed flying away like a spinning top and alongside screams that sounded as if he was a pig being slaughtered.
He flew several dozens of meters before he managed to stop, yet the screams still did not end.
His gigantic body trembled as his chest was impressively marked with a vermilion red mark stretched nearly a meter long.
"Pfft!" In the distance, Yun Lintian landed on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was terribly pale as he looked at Xing Chen…
