Chapter 335 Ch 335: Former Champion: Ling Xiaolong
“Bang!”
Ye Xiao attacked with his full strength, but in front of a Celestial Sovereign of Chaos, his attack was nothing more than useless.
The difference between their strength was too great.
However, Celestial Glory Blade was different.
As Ye Xiao’s blade struck, it made contact with the black-clothed man’s shoulder. Even though Ye Xiao’s personal strength wasn’t enough to fully control the blade’s potential, the Celestial Glory Blade had a power of its own. It sliced through several layers of skin and flesh, leaving behind a deep wound that exposed the bone. The black-clothed man let out a pained groan and took a few steps back, clearly affected by the injury.
“A demon?”
An evil smile formed on Ye Xiao’s demonic face. He said, “If you think I’m a demon, then I will become one!”
As he finished speaking, the Celestial Glory Blade, which had been radiating a brilliant golden light, was suddenly engulfed in a dark and malevolent demonic energy. It was as though the blade had tapped into a wellspring of evil power.
A surge of incredible blade force emanated from the blade, creating a powerful and menacing aura that swept across the surroundings.
As the black-clothed man faced this unleashed power, his earlier confident face was replaced with a surprised expression. He gritted his teeth and spoke, “In the end, you are LING XIAOLONG. I could not afford to underestimate you.”
Ye Xiao smiled without saying a word and slashed out, causing the space to fracture as his blade energy passed through the fracture and appeared in front of the black-clothed man, landing on his body.
However, the blade energy had just landed on the black-clothed man’s body when the black-clothed man tilted slightly and grabbed the blade energy before shattering it.
Although he managed to do so, his hand was riddled with wounds and blood started dripping continuously.
Ignoring the pain in his hand, he took out the sword and slashed out.
Before Ye Xiao could react, a giant sword light was already in front of him, aiming at his neck.
‘This… I can not dodge this attack. Is this the end?’
Ye Xiao’s heart throbbed hard. He knew dodging this attack was impossible. This sword light was not only aiming to sever his neck from the body, but it was also locking down Ye Xiao in his position. Even if Ye Xiao wanted to, he could not move at all.
At the same time, a piercing feeling reflected all over his body, as if he was being targeted by hundreds of sharp swords.
“Weng.”
Right at this moment, a brilliant divine light suddenly shot out from the chaotic void, illuminating the entire ruin.
“What’s going on?”
Everyone’s attention was drawn to the brilliant divine light. They watched as the brilliant divine light came striking the sword light, shattering it into pieces.
The feeling of being suppressed and locked up instantly disappeared. Ye Xiao raised his head, only to see light surging in the dark sky. The light gathered crazily, forming a human figure very soon.
This human figure was giant and filled with boundless aura. In one hand, he was holding a spear and a blade in his other hand. These two weapons were not real, they were created from energy. Most importantly, this giant looked exactly like Ye Xiao.
If Ling Wei Long had been here, he would have been shocked because this giant human figure was none other than the giant he had seen when he held his newborn grandson in his hand.
“LING XIAOLONG.”
Seeing this giant, the black-clothed man’s face changed completely. He then turned to Ye Xiao before looking at the giant once again. In the end, he was scared shitlessly and constantly took many steps back. His followers were the same as well.
“How could there be two of you? This must be an illusion. Yes, it must be!”
The black-clothed man kept muttering until he noticed something.
“Ummm… Your aura…”
“Hahahahaha!” The black-clothed man started laughing crazily. When he stopped laughing, he spoke, “Your cultivation has regressed to the Celestial Sovereign of Chaos. You are the same as me now, or maybe even weaker. Your existence no longer matters. I don’t know what tricks you are pulling, but you are going to die here, right now!”
While the black-clothed man was speaking nonchalantly, Ye Xiao could not explain his feelings anymore.
At first, he thought he might be the one to pull everything from behind the scenes before reincarnating as Ye Xiao in the Heavens.
However, a giant with the same name and face was standing in midair not far from him. He was no longer sure what was the truth and what was the lie.
The giant Ling Xiaolong ignored the black-clothed man and flashed, appearing in front of Ye Xiao. He first observed Ye Xiao and then said, “Your growth has already surpassed my imagination. I don’t know what kind of existence you will become after becoming one with me and one another!”
“Becoming one with you and one another?”
Ye Xiao frowned when he heard this. He felt like Ling Xiaolong’s words were going above his head. He could not understand anything. 𝑟𝘢.𝘤𝘰𝑚
The giant Ling Xiaolong smiled, “Gather 108 Rule Source Crystals first. You’ll know the entire truth after that.”
Saying that, he turned to the group of people and muttered, “Now… Should I take care of them first!”
As he said, Ling Xiaolong looked at the black-clothed man and the others, and a smile slowly emerged on his face.
“Who among you will die first?”
Upon hearing this, the black-clothed man and the other Celestial Sovereigns of Chaos were infuriated. This Ling Xiaolong was obviously not putting them in his eyes.
“Ling Xiaolong, you might be a mountain in the past, but you are nothing but a broken wall now. How dare you be so arrogant?”
The black-clothed man shouted furiously. At the same time, he waved his hand, causing the sky to flash with red lightning. A giant red brick manifested in the sky and slammed down, intending to crush both Ling Xiaolong and Ye Xiao together.
“Wings of Protection!”
Ling Xiaolong’s body trembled. A brilliant light burst out from his body.
Ye Xiao, to his shock, saw two giant wings growing out amidst the brilliant light from Ling Xiaolong’s back and enveloped both of them from above, protecting them from any damage that red brick might inflict.
When the black-clothed man saw this, he knew Ling Xiaolong had really been weakened greatly. Otherwise, he would never have to rely on the Wings of Protection to counter his attack.
“Let’s use all our strength to cut off his wings today.”
The black-clothed man shouted. The other Celestial Sovereigns of Chaos also exerted their strength at the same time. Dozens of pillars of energy exploded in the air, and circulated at high speed, shooting out as pillars of dazzling light that crushed towards Ling Xiaolong.
Ye Xiao could only keep looking at the marvelous battle scene unfolding in front of him. Even with the Celestial Glory Blade in hand, he found himself completely helpless and useless. In other words, the current him was simply not qualified to join this battle at all.
The black-clothed man and the other experts were pushing their entire strength at Ling Xiaolong. Surging energy was surging unceasingly, wanting to end this battle immediately.
However, they soon discovered that no matter how hard they tried, Ling Xiaolong’s Wings of Protection did not budge at all. It remains as stable as before, without showing any sign of cracking or even shaking.
“What’s going on? Why can’t we break apart his Wings of Protection?”
The black-clothed man was puzzled as he muttered. His question also revolves inside everyone’s minds.
“What’s the matter, can’t do anything anymore?”
Ling Xiaolong’s lips curved into a smile. His face was full of ridicule as he looked at those people clenching their hands tightly.
Ye Xiao, on the other hand, could also see fear in everyone’s eyes. Those people clearly recognized that a minor success is not a guarantee of victory.
The black-clothed man could not help but remember what his master once said, “Don’t underestimate the strength and resilience of those who’ve tasted both victory and defeat.”
Ling Xiaolong was obviously one such person.
Ling Xiaolong looked at their expressions and spoke, “Let me give you a valuable lesson.”
“Former champions have the heart of a lion, even when they are no longer in the spotlight. Never underestimate their ability to rise again.”
Obviously, he was talking about himself. Everyone understood this.
At the same time, they also understood that Ling Xiaolong was mocking them for their lack of understanding and naive way of thinking.
They actually thought that they could take down Ling Xiaolong, whom even the Masters of Chaos found impossible to kill.
Ling Xiaolong was never an easy target to begin with. Their fatal mistake was underestimating Ling Xiaolong and thinking that they could subdue him with their joint strength.
