Chapter 504: Chapter 228: Continuous Breakthroughs! Obliterating the Taboo Figure

A clear, resonant dragon’s roar shook the heavens and the earth.

At the same time, a sharp voice rang out, "Is that so? He can’t self-destruct? And you think you can?!"

BOOM!

Before the person even arrived, a terrifyingly brilliant fist of light, carrying an incomparably dreadful wave of power, tore through the darkness and smashed directly toward Hua Yuerong.

It was like a divine spear from beyond the heavens.

Its power was too immense, its speed too great!

Before the fist of light even struck, the horrifying shockwave caused a vast stretch of ground to instantly collapse with a ROAR as space and earth alike burst into flames.

Hua Yuerong’s expression changed. She felt as if she had been plunged into a terrifying, scorching sea of fire, an unimaginable wave of destruction surging down upon her.

Without a second thought, her jet-black True Essence erupted. Behind her, countless flowers seemed to bloom in an instant. Each one was pitch-black and eerily strange, blanketing the sky in a dense formation.

These flowers all contained bizarre Daoist patterns.

They were like black shields, overlapping and stacking upon one another.

But it was all useless.

The moment these countless black flowers came into contact with the searing, terrifying fist of light, they began to rapidly crumble and burn, shattering into dust with a deafening RUMBLE in a single exchange.

Then, the dazzling, dreadful fist of light, wreathed in lightning and flame, descended from the sky.

As Hua Yuerong’s pupils shrank in terror, it crashed down, mercilessly engulfing her body.

KA-BOOM!

"AHHH!"

A shrill, tragic scream echoed, terrifying and world-shaking.

A golden mushroom cloud erupted at the point of impact, instantly tearing the surrounding darkness to shreds.

Hua Yuerong’s body couldn’t withstand the blow. She was sent flying like a broken sack, crashing dozens of miles away.

In an instant, a brilliant, scorching, golden domain spread out, covering a radius of several thousand miles and illuminating the entire area as if it were day.

Golden waves of fire licked across the ground.

It was transformed into a field of molten magma.

The Nine Heavens Elder, who had been fleeing in panic, froze. His face was a mask of terrified disbelief. He stared into the distance, his breathing ragged, his heart pounding with an excitement like a tidal wave.

"Young Hero Chen!!"

he shouted, ecstatic.

’My investment wasn’t wrong after all!’

’Chen Xuan is here!!’

But he suddenly came to his senses and yelled, "Young Hero Chen, run! Those forbidden figures are besieging Qianling City! City Lord Feng and Alliance Leader Chu are in danger! As long as there’s life, there’s hope...!"

ROAR!

A dragon’s cry sounded in mid-air.

The jet-black Void Dragon Python was the first to appear, covered in bone spurs, its face ferocious. Darkness swirled around its body, and its pair of cold, indifferent, amber dragon eyes swept over the Nine Heavens Elder.

Atop the dragon’s head, Chen Xuan stood silently. His black hair was unbound, his purple robes fluttered, and his expression was cold. His face was pale, and his eyes glinted like lightning.

Lightning crackled and flames burned around his body.

This lightning and flame intertwined with the darkness emanating from the Void Dragon Python.

They were inextricably intertwined.

Darkness, lightning, and fire swirled together, creating a breathtakingly terrifying sight.

The Nine Heavens Elder’s voice died in his throat. His face went slack, his eyes filled with utter shock.

He stared at Chen Xuan in disbelief.

’What kind of scene is this?’

For some reason, the moment he saw Chen Xuan, all his panic, fear, and helplessness vanished without a trace.

He felt as if he were facing the heavens themselves!

A god!!

This was the influence of the Unity of Heaven and Man.

The weaker the mind, the greater the effect!

"A piece of trash dares to make a move in front of me. You’ve got some nerve!"

Chen Xuan’s voice was cold. He stepped forward, walking through the void, advancing step by step toward Hua Yuerong on the ground below.

"Hkk... hkk..."

Blood gushed from Hua Yuerong’s mouth. Her eyes were filled with endless horror and fright. Her entire body felt as if it had been torn apart, wracked with unimaginable pain.

The black membrane she was so proud of inside her body had completely rotted away.

It had rotted into a tattered web.

Worse, a hideously large, bloody hole had been blasted clean through her chest. Her organs inside were pulverized, making recovery impossible.

This terrified her to the extreme.

’How could this be?’

’This is that Chen Xuan?’

’His power...’

’It’s too terrifying!’

Without a moment’s hesitation, Hua Yuerong used what little strength she had left to activate a Secret Technique. Her body seemed to evaporate, vanishing in an instant.

Earth Escape!

Her eyes wild with fear, Hua Yuerong reappeared several thousand meters underground.

She sped through the earth, fleeing toward Qianling City at top speed.

As a creature from the depths of darkness,

and one of the two strongest who had come this time,

she had a great many tricks up her sleeve.

especially when it came to life-saving methods.

’As long as I can escape to Qianling City, the forbidden figures there will surely save me.’

’No matter how strong Chen Xuan is, can he possibly be stronger than those forbidden figures?’

’Unless he becomes one of the forbidden figures himself!!’

’But is that even possible?’

Hua Yuerong didn’t dare to dwell on it. She just wanted to flee frantically. In the blink of an eye, she had traveled an unknown number of miles underground. When she carefully sensed the area above her and found no fluctuations, and felt no disturbances underground either, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally, finally..."

"Finally shook me off, have you?"

A cold, indifferent voice sounded from right behind Hua Yuerong.

!!!

Hua Yuerong’s face was a mask of horror. She couldn’t believe her ears.

’Chen Xuan is underground too?’

’Right behind me?’

’This is impossible!’

She whipped her head around, only to be met by Chen Xuan’s brutal fist. The searing, terrifying force of the punch instantly slammed into her chin. Like a Dragon Rising from Mount Lu, it carried the power of ochre lightning, launching her body up with a shrill scream. She shot out from underground, rocketing high into the sky.
