An Lin was lying on the floor, and his face was still flushed red.
Da Bai was currently sitting on him and using his paws to hold his hands down.
“Da Bai, let go of me! What are you doing to me…” An Lin wanted to break free. However, he had just been wounded, and Da Bai’s full weight of a few hundred pounds was now pressing down on his body. Thus, he was fighting an uphill battle to break free.
Da Bai spat to the side. “You think I want to hold you down? I’m preventing you from doing crazy things, woof!”
“Let me go, I’m not crazy…” An Lin was still struggling.
Seeing this, Xiao Chou used a withered vine binding spell to tie his body up tightly.
An Lin: “…”
“You guys are pressing me down and tying me up? Why are you guys practicing bondage on me?”
Xiao Chou: “…”
Xu Xiaolan walked up to An Lin and squatted down beside him. Then, she placed her slender finger onto his forehead. Wisps of coolness flowed through her finger and into his body, cooling him down.
After a short while, she said indifferently, “Your body temperature reached 60 degrees Celsius just then. If normal people heated up to such temperature, they would’ve died long ago. Your condition is slightly better. Your body is fine, it’s just that there’s something wrong with your brain…”
Thanks to Xu Xiaolan’s immortal spell, An Lin’s erratic behavior gradually died down. However, he involuntarily winced when he heard her final remark.
“Who would’ve thought that my frost inheritance would be needed so quickly.” The corner of Xu Xiaolan’s lips curled up into a teasing smile.
“I also didn’t think that learning Wings of True Fire would have such serious after-effects.” An Lin chuckled in self-ridicule.
He finally regained his senses at this moment. To hell with being fired up!
He was only of the Spirit Nurturing Stage, yet just then, he had charged at a Narwhal Dragon of the Soul Formation Final Stage. Even though he had many buffs from his techniques, such an action was still seeking death…
Fortunately, that young male liked to flex, and his side was also able to flee quickly. Otherwise, there was a very real chance that he might’ve died there.
“Wah! Big Brother An’s finally returned to normal, woof!” Da Bai started wagging his large, snowy white tail, and his heavy body pressed down on An Lin in excitement.
“Holy f*ck! Da Bai, be gentler!”
An Lin was already wounded, and Da Bai pressing down on him almost suffocated him.
Seeing An Lin return to normal, “dog’s smother” and “bondage play” were both relieved.
An Lin swallowed a Blood Spirit Pill and started meditating in order to recover from his wounds.
Time slowly passed by. The light within the dragon tomb dimmed, and it gradually descended into darkness.
“Huh? This mystic realm also has day and night?” An Lin blinked in surprise.
“Maybe it’s so the tomb keepers can feel like they’re actually living,” Xu Xiaolan speculated.
An Lin shook his head and said sympathetically, “The tomb keepers’ lives are truly so boring…”
“It’s fairly pitiful.” Xu Xiaolan was feeling a little melancholy. “I really don’t know why this tomb has to have so many tomb keepers. If it’s for the inheritances, then setting up traps and other mechanisms will completely suffice. For example, choosing people through trials that make use of illusions or hallucinations.”
After sharing a moment of sympathy for the tomb keepers, they started discussing how to kill the young male in the Palace of Black.
After coming up with a battle strategy, they once again broke into the Palace of Black.
Gazing at the fierce and aggressive visitors, a meaningful smile stretched across the young male’s face. “Oh? You guys still have the nerve to come back.”
“Cut the crap,” An Lin roared. “Now die!”
He immediately released Gundam One and Gundam Two.
After seeing Gundam One and Gundam Two, the young male’s expression changed slightly. However, he wasn’t too worried. After all, mechanical puppets operated by a cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Stage couldn’t be all that strong.
However, it wasn’t long before the young male realized just how wrong his assumption was.
The two Gundams worked with each other extremely well. One manipulated gravity fields and made use of terrifying restrictive abilities such as Sparticle Chains, while the other used light swords and laser beams. This had the young male overwhelmed and on the back foot.
Moreover, An Lin acted as a combat advisor who directed his troops from the sidelines. He could always identify openings in the young male’s defenses. Then, he had his team take advantage of these openings as they wounded the young male time and time again.
“Howl!”
The young male roared angrily and dragon scales started covering his entire body. He had fully activated the power of his bloodline.
Punching with all his might, he sent one of the Gundams reeling back. Then, blue lightning suddenly started crackling around his body as he shot toward An Lin like a bolt of lightning.
At this moment, killing An Lin first would be the correct decision. After all, he was the individual who manipulated the mechanical puppets and could easily identify his weak points.
However, when he closed to within thirty feet of An Lin, An Lin suddenly smiled.
Boom!
He was enveloped within a fearsome pillar of flames which soared into the skies.
Xu Xiaolan formed seals with her hands and fully activated the powers of her Divine Phoenix Bloodline, giving the pillar of flames a golden tinge. Not only did the flames burn hotter, but they even possessed a powerful restrictive ability.
Xiao Chou unleashed his Black Flame Domain and blocked the young male from charging forward.
Da Bai let rip gusts of violent winds which caused the pillar of flames to burn even more vigorously.
At the same instant, An Lin entered into a bow drawing stance. Flame feathers fluttered in mid-air. They quickly formed into a crimson arrow which burned with such high temperatures that the surrounding air started to slightly distort.
Immortal spell born from the First Stage Wings of True Fire—Crimson God Arrow!
Whoosh!
The Crimson God Arrow was insanely quick, and it dragged out a red streak behind it.
It whizzed under Xiao Chou’s armpit and pierced into the young male’s chest.
This was an opening detected by the Divine Inspection Technique. The coordinated attack caught the young male by surprise, and the scorching Crimson God Arrow penetrated through his chest.
At almost the exact same instant, Xiao Chou and Xu Xiaolan retreated hastily.
With a loud boom, Gundam One and Gundam Two released their Sparticle Photovoltaic Cannons which had finished charging up.
The young male felt his defenses falter as the arrow pierced through his chest. Then, he saw the beams of golden energy blasting toward him.
The Sparticle Photovoltaic Cannons exhausted huge amounts of energy. As a result, they also possessed a devastating amount of power. This formidable power instantly obliterated the Palace of Black and blew out a massive crater in the gigantic floating boulder.
“Haha, success!” An Lin chortled between gasps for breath.
“If he’s blown to bits, will the Black Lightning Dragon Ball also be destroyed?” Xu Xiaolan asked anxiously.
An Lin shook his head. “Don’t worry, it’s not that easy for a Narwhal Dragon of the Soul Formation Final Stage to be blown to bits. If he really has been blown into oblivion, then it’ll a massive loss for me. There’s something important that I still haven’t done yet~”
Gundam One and Gundam Two had depleted almost all of their energy. They immediately flew back into An Lin’s storage ring and started voraciously absorbing spirit stones in order to recharge their energy.
“Howl!”
The deafening roar of a dragon sounded from below the smoking ruins.
Immediately afterward, a gigantic shadow soared into the skies.
This figure was thousands of feet in length, and its intimidating aura formed into gusts of ferocious winds which blew aside the billowing smoke and dust. As the smoke and dust cleared, its towering figure emerged before An Lin and the others.
“That’s right… Thinking that such strikes would be able to defeat me, that’s looking down upon dragons!”
The Narwhal Dragon revealed its true form. Its voice was like rumbling thunder, and it appeared extremely mighty.
However, its gigantic body was dyed red from the blood gushing out of its wounds. It was clear that this dragon was severely wounded.
“Although the attack couldn’t blow you to bits, it certainly gave you grave injuries,” An Lin chuckled and said. Seeing the state of the Narwhal Dragon, An Lin didn’t panic. Instead, he even breathed a sigh of relief.
“Do you think I can’t kill you guys just because I’m wounded?!” The Narwhal Dragon roared in evident fury.
A soaring dragon might swept out from its body and whipped up a gale.
Thick blankets of clouds gathered in the skies, and a vast thunderous might started accumulating.
“I only need one strike to destroy you guys!”
There was a look of prestige and dignity in the Narwhal Dragon’s eyes. Its gigantic body glided up toward the sky, and it started drawing upon the power of wind and rain.
Countless arcs of threatening lightning started to condense before the Narwhal Dragon’s body.
Looking up, An Lin saw that the Narwhal Dragon had gathered hundreds upon thousands of arcs of lightning together. The fearsome might of this lightning cloud caused heaven and earth to tremble.
Condense, condense, and condense even more…
This sea of lightning eventually condensed into a bolt of divine lightning. This divine lightning turned from blue to purple, and this purple gradually developed a tinge of gold…
Once this golden-tinged purple lightning appeared, it released a suffocating might. This was a kingly might which made one quake in fear.
“This final strike seems to be a bit too powerful…” An Lin’s lips quivered in apprehension.
He had to admit, this bolt of lightning had him quite scared. For the first time, he didn’t feel confident.
The Narwhal Dragon soared through the skies haughtily. However, there was only awe and veneration in its eyes as it looked toward the golden-tinged purple lightning. “This lightning is the most powerful dragon lightning. Below the Return to Void Stage, this attack is without rival! Die!”
The golden-tinged lightning boomed down with unfathomable speed. As if it was a sword of divine judgment, this lightning cut through the night sky and became the sole color in this heaven and earth.
The Narwhal Dragon looked toward An Lin. It wanted to see how he vanished under this bolt of divine lightning.
Then, he saw An Lin extend a finger.
Immediately afterward, a strange sight appeared. The golden-tinged purple lightning suddenly became static and unmoving.
Its radiance was dazzling. Frozen in the night sky, it appeared especially stunning.
However… Why the f*ck wasn’t it moving?!
The Narwhal Dragon’s eyes bulged in disbelief. Seeing the corners of An Lin’s mouth curl up into a smile, a cold chill suddenly gripped at its heart.
It can’t be… You’re joking, right…?
“I heard that below the Return to Void Stage, this attack is without rival. I’m curious to see whether this applies to you as well…” An Lin smiled faintly. His eyes became snowy white, and he tapped toward someplace on the Narwhal Dragon’s body. “Go!”
“Holy f*ck!” the Narwhal Dragon roared. “This can’t be real!!”
The golden-tinged purple lightning moved. Bringing with it a kingly might, it instantly penetrated through the Narwhal Dragon’s body.
The Narwhal Dragon’s anguished wails reverberated through the heavens.
