At this moment, one to two hundred people had gathered around the thunderstorm, waiting for treasures to erupt.
More kept flying towards the thunderstorm, drawn by the massive commotion.
However, after waiting for a while, not a single treasure appeared.
This left the crowd somewhat frustrated, though the top fighters remained patient.
In their view, the thunderstorm, capable of spewing great treasures, was unique.
“Lin Xiao, your life is mine!” At that moment, a booming shout echoed from afar, followed by a distinguished-looking youth charging towards them.
The youth was handsome, clad in a purple robe, exuding the aura of Martial King Sixth Realm.
“Luo Chen?” Seeing the approaching youth, Lin Xiao was slightly stunned.
This was one of the three Youtian Demon Palace disciples who had targeted him—the purple-robed youth, Luo Chen, whom he had defeated at the Junzang Talent Platform.
Back in Junzang, Lin Xiao had killed one grey-robed disciple and disciplined a black-robed youth, Feng Yidao. He hadn’t encountered Luo Chen since leaving Junzang.
Unexpectedly, Luo Chen had also entered the Mysterious Domain battlefield and, in this time, had broken through from Martial King Third Realm to Sixth Realm.
Clearly, he was a disciple of considerable potential within the Youtian Demon Palace.
But back at the Talent Platform, with cultivation suppressed to the same level, Lin Xiao had defeated Luo Chen. Now, at the same true cultivation, he feared him even less.
“Die!” As Luo Chen closed the distance, he swung his long saber, unleashing a black saber aura. The unmatched aura, like a shocking black rainbow, stirred a strange whistle, surging with terrifying fluctuations, slashing through the air.
“Since you’ve come knocking, let’s see who dies!”
Back then, the three had constantly troubled him, and he’d been itching to eliminate them. Now that Luo Chen had shown up, Lin Xiao wouldn’t hold back.
Gripping his sword with both hands, the vast elemental force in his dantian surged. As his power peaked, a blood dragon phantom appeared above and behind him, an ancient aura from primordial times radiating, its terrifying pressure wreaking havoc in all directions.
Simultaneously, Lin Xiao’s hands were enveloped in ferocious martial intent. With a Great Azure Dragon Slash, a dazzling sword aura formed an azure dragon, roaring with a mighty dragon’s cry, carrying torrential force as it struck the black saber aura.
“Rumble!”
With a thunderous boom, the black saber aura shattered instantly. The azure dragon sword aura, unstoppable and awe-inspiring, sped towards Luo Chen.
Seeing this, Luo Chen’s expression changed drastically, and he retreated frantically.
At that moment, Ling Gu frowned, his narrow sword about to slash out. But just then, a terrifying dark spear aura, like a long dragon or the roaring Yangtze, struck first, shattering Lin Xiao’s azure dragon sword aura and charging towards him with unmatched might.
“Boom!”
Muyao acted, unleashing a dazzling sword aura that struck the rolling black spear aura, shattering it. Their clash was evenly matched.
“Third on the Earth Demon List, Luo Yang!” Muyao frowned slightly, sighing.
“Luo Yang?” Lin Xiao was taken aback. Same surname—could Luo Yang be related to Luo Chen, perhaps brothers or clansmen?
“Brother!” At that moment, Luo Chen called out to the youth flying in on elemental wings.
Lin Xiao’s expression hardened. They were indeed brothers.
“You’re no match for him. Let me handle this!”
The youth in a purple-gold robe sighed at Luo Chen, his eyes flashing with sharp coldness. Gripping his long spear, he charged straight at Lin Xiao.
Luo Chen froze, reluctant to admit it. Back then, Lin Xiao was just a Heavenly Martial Seventh Realm ant, but now he was far stronger.
But there was no choice. He was completely outmatched. Lin Xiao’s strength far surpassed his. If he fought Lin Xiao alone, he’d likely die.
Let his brother eliminate Lin Xiao instead.
“Hmph, think you can kill him in front of us? Do you take us for air?” Muyao shouted coldly, charging at the oncoming Luo Yang.
“We’re not air either!” Ling Gu moved, rushing forward.
As Ling Gu acted, Bai Moxuan followed, attacking.
With Bai Moxuan’s move, Gu Shiyou didn’t stay idle. A shadow flashed, and terrifying dark energy, like a rolling river, struck at Bai Moxuan.
The air turned into a three-against-two clash.
Seeing this, Ru Xian, Mao Youtan, and Mao Chongliang from other sides of the thunderstorm rushed out.
But their opponents moved too, striking at them. A grand battle between the two strongest forces in the chaotic lands began at this moment.
“Let me test the strength of the third on the Heavenly Demon List!” At that instant, a burly, slightly chubby youth surged with rolling energy, joining Bai Moxuan and Muyao, charging at Gu Shiyou, Luo Yang, and Ling Gu.
This was Yang Dehui, ranked third on the Holy City’s Earth Star List!
Thunderous booms rang out, shockwaves like raging waves exploding in the air, vast ocean-like energy fluctuations surging in all directions.
A colossal clash unfolded here, making distant onlookers think a world-shaking treasure had appeared, drawing them closer.
“Rumble!”
At that moment, the massive thunderstorm began moving again, heading in another direction.
The top fighters from both forces, while fiercely battling, followed the thunderstorm, fighting with earth-shaking intensity.
The two to three hundred people gathered around also chased, dodging the shockwaves from the clashing titans while nearing the thunderstorm.
“Should we follow the fight or leave?” Hu Yue asked from the side.
“Let’s get out of here!” Glancing at Hu Yue and Ziling, Lin Xiao quickly said.
The thunderstorm had just spewed a pile of treasures, but since merging, it hadn’t released more, likely in a lull.
With peak Martial King fighters battling and hidden threats lurking, ready to strike at any moment, following the thunderstorm was disadvantageous. Better to seek other opportunities elsewhere.
“Let’s go!” Ziling nodded, and the three sped off in another direction, with no one pursuing them.
