"Apocalypse · She Shen."
As the whisper fell, Xiao Chen's half-closed eyes snapped wide open!
The spear trembled, letting out a series of low hums.
The heavenly flame forming its spear tassel abruptly burst into a blazing inferno, three feet of fiery red dancing fiercely in the wind.
The wind fed the flames, whipping into a bitter astral wind!
Xiao Chen's robe snapped loudly in midair. At his side, Cao Yan's gauntlets gleamed with immense, formidable aura.
Flanked on the left and right, Li Guanqi and Meng Wanshu shot forward under Tang Ru's guidance.
Jiuxiao's draconic eyes glinted with cold malice. A sweep of his massive tail instantly tore the void apart, roiling the ambient qi and preventing Lu Tian's divine sense from expanding.
Divine runes flickered across Pengluo's body, and a brilliant radiance shone from between his brows as his form gradually transformed into an elegant, handsome young man clad in white!
His face was as smooth as jade, his skin fair and clear.
A mysterious purple mark glowed at the center of his forehead, and as the patterns spread, Pengluo's body steadily solidified.
A Divine Pattern Heavenly Radish!
Sensing the strange occurrence behind him through his divine sense, Li Guanqi was profoundly shocked.
*Is this the true form of the Divine Pattern Heavenly Radish clan?*
Just as Li Guanqi assumed Pengluo was about to showcase extraordinary prowess, that handsome face suddenly twisted into a rather shameless grin.
Retreating into the void until only his head poked out, he shouted toward the others, "Charge ahead, brothers! Leave the logistics to me—I'm insanely potent right now!!"
Li Guanqi, Meng Wanshu, and the others couldn't help their mouths twitching.
If the battle hadn't been so dire, Li Guanqi would have loved nothing more than to curse him out on the spot.
Xiao Chen's rough, heavily calloused hands gripped the spear like iron pincers as he clashed fiercely with Lu Tian!
With a flick of his left wrist, the spear hummed, bursting into countless spear silhouettes!
Lu Tian's overwhelming strength forced a grave expression onto Xiao Chen's face as he retreated while striking back.
Twisting his frame, his hands swung the spear into a blur of afterimages, leaving Lu Tian temporarily unable to find an opening!
Yet within moments, Xiao Chen's hands cracked and split, unable to bear the terrifying force behind Lu Tian's blows.
Still, as if feeling no pain at all, he didn't even knit his brows.
Lu Tian's blade was astonishingly swift. In hundreds of exchanges, he carved over a dozen gruesome wounds across Xiao Chen's body.
Yet when Xiao Chen's robe tore to shreds, even Lu Tian's eyes flickered with surprise.
Xiao Chen was covered head to toe in scars—a dense thicket of old, brownish wounds, many of them through-and-through punctures, every single one shocking to behold.
Xiao Chen suddenly roared, unleashing a sky full of spear light.
Terrifying beams of azure and red converged, raining down from the heavens like a fiery deluge straight toward Lu Tian!
The raging force caused the surrounding temperature to spike drastically.
The firmament cracked. Xiao Chen stood alone with his spear like a lone general defending a besieged fortress, utterly fearless before an enemy stronger than himself!
Facing this torrential rain of spear light, Lu Tian's breath hitched.
Every single beam contained sublime mastery of the spear dao; these were no ordinary projections.
Lu Tian drew a deep breath. With a thunderous boom, demonic flames erupted across the sky, distorting and collapsing the void.
Dazzling sword lights scattered in all directions, yet each stroke landed with pinpoint precision upon the spear rays.
In an instant, the sky full of spear light shattered, and an impossibly fast blade slashed toward the back of Xiao Chen's head!
Right then, without shifting his posture, Xiao Chen whipped his spear around, thrusting straight toward Lu Tian's head!
*Clang!*
The spear moved with such blistering speed that friction ignited sparks in the air.
Lu Tian ducked low, a bone-deep cut opening along his cheek.
His sword thrust upward at a vicious angle, aiming straight for Xiao Chen's armpit!
Xiao Chen's expression tightened slightly.
Suddenly!
A blood-red longsword swept in to intercept Lu Tian. Wearing a fierce expression, Li Guanqi barked coldly, "Don't forget we're here too!"
As the words fell, an enormous surge of power erupted from his sword, knocking Lu Tian's blade aside!
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed, the corner of his mouth curling upward as he shifted from a thrust to a downward chop with the She Shen spear.
The muscles in his arms swelled. Spear light flared from She Shen as he brought it crashing down toward Lu Tian's skull!
Lu Tian's expression changed, and he shifted his footing to pull away.
Yet a terrifying blast of fist astral hurtled from behind, completely cutting off his retreat.
Just as he attempted to dodge sideways, dozens of frigid sword lights closed in from both flanks, boxing him in completely!
In the blink of an eye, a deafening explosion erupted, followed immediately by a blast of lightning breath that tore through the fabric of space.
Jiuxiao's massive dragon tail swept across the void, sending a battered silhouette rocketing backward like a tattered ragdoll.
Drenched in blood, Lu Tian's arm hung at a grotesque angle. His body cut through the air so fast that sonic booms echoed across the sky.
*Rumble! Rumble!*
Crashing straight through two massive mountains, Lu Tian was embedded deep into the stone, engulfed in thick clouds of dust.
"Cough... *pfft*..."
Lying inside the crater with vacant eyes, Lu Tian coughed up mouthful after mouthful of blood.
Bits of shredded flesh were mixed into the crimson flow. The giant dragon's physique was simply too monstrous...
With profound reluctance, Lu Tian retrieved a jade slip from his storage ring and crushed it, murmuring with palpable urgency, "If you don't get here soon, I might... die here!"
Far away within the void, a grim-faced man was hurtling forward at full speed.
"Hold on a little longer!! I've brought the Immortal Ascension Platform!!"
Indeed, Youming was currently carrying a massive stone platform spanning over thirty zhang across his back.
The platform was entirely golden, carved with arcane inscriptions that rippled with radiant light and emitted immense pressure.
This Immortal Ascension Platform could not be placed inside a storage ring.
Far behind Youming in the depths of the void, Long Hou and several others pursued at no slower a pace.
Youming gritted his teeth, his hands flying to furiously sketch out grand arrays!
Meanwhile, within the domain, Li Guanqi had no intention of granting Lu Tian any room to breathe.
The moment Lu Tian finished his transmission, several terrifying sword lights descended from the heavens.
Lu Tian vaulted backward, executing teleportation to vanish a thousand zhang away.
A heartbeat later, the entire mountain was reduced to flying ash, sending jagged rubble flying in all directions.
Immediately after, an overbearing fist astral closed in!
A blazing blue fist astral spanning ten zhang smashed through the demonic flame barrier before Lu Tian.
The horrific force sent Lu Tian flying over a thousand zhang.
His earlier battle against Li Guanqi and Meng Wanshu had already consumed nearly thirty percent of his primal energy.
Now, under the unrelenting assault of the group, their strength surged while his waned, plunging him into ever greater peril.
A flicker of panic finally surfaced in the proud Lu Tian's eyes.
Right at that moment, a resolute face suddenly materialized before him.
Cao Yan's gaze was sharp as a hawk's, his fist momentum ponderous and heavy.
Both fists dissolved into a flurry of shadows crashing toward Lu Tian, leaving him struggling to keep up.
Not just Cao Yan—Xiao Chen and the others swarmed in an instant!
Ye Feng's sword strikes grew swifter and swifter, as if venting every grievance and bitter ache accumulated over the past years.
In an instant, violent attacks erupted across the firmament. Lu Tian unleashed every ounce of his power, desperately fighting back.
Yet the group's coordination was nothing short of perfection—they knew exactly where the white-robed young man would appear from the void, and precisely where each person would fall back to!
The instant anyone sensed danger, they pulled out of the fray immediately, popping a radish into their mouth to replenish primal energy and mend their wounds.
And the colossal dragon, relying on the formidable defense of his physical body, constantly stepped in at the most critical junctures to intercept lethal strikes!
