Luo Wanwan stepped forward, her figure flickering out. Sword light swirled around her, its sharpness unmatched. At that moment, Ning Xuanyuan felt a suffocating pressure descend upon him, threatening to destroy both his body and his Dao.
Yet he did not retreat half a step. He remained in front of Luo Wanwan, radiance flowing over his body.
Luo Wanwan raised her hand and pointed, sending a streak of sword light tearing through the air. As the sword thrust out, Ning Xuanyuan felt a wisp of sword light rush straight into his mind, severing his will and obliterating his soul. Terrifying sword intent also swept outward, slashing at his flesh, intent on tearing through his body.
Ning Xuanyuan's expression changed slightly. His mental will and physical body were under attack at once, as though both were about to collapse. He instantly focused his mental will, while the radiance over his body grew brighter and became indestructible.
"Sss!"
A soft sound came, followed by an ear-piercing rip. Ning Xuanyuan's defenses had actually been pierced by a single sword strike. Even with his powerful body, a shallow line of blood was left on his skin.
Ning Xuanyuan's figure flickered. For the first time since the battle began, he retreated to evade.
Luo Wanwan's assault was completely different from before. Her attacks were ruthless, tyrannical and sharp, brimming with killing intent!
Clearly, Luo Wanwan had truly resolved to kill Ning Xuanyuan.
Luo Wanwan stepped forward, towering sword intent swirling around her, her grace peerless. A wisp of sword light appeared beneath her feet, making her look as though she were riding a sword as she charged straight at Ning Xuan to kill him.
"Heh, getting serious now?" Ning Xuanyuan wiped a hand across the wound on his chest. Luo Wanwan's sword momentum was truly terrifying, capable of breaking through his physical defenses.
With an indestructible golden body, how many could break through it?
The next moment, incomparably brilliant light gathered around Ning Xuanyuan's body, and powerful rule power flowed out from within him.
Ning Xuanyuan stamped his foot, his body turning into a streak of light. Luo Wanwan gently waved her delicate hand, and Sword Qi filled the sky, howling outward with unstoppable force. Ning Xuanyuan raised his palm, gathering vast spiritual power and merging it with the rules of the Great Dao to form a giant blade!
The giant blade swept across the sky, severing everything as it cut straight through the terrifying sword intent.
In a single step, Ning Xuanyuan crossed the space between them and appeared before Luo Wanwan.
Ning Xuanyuan immediately chopped down with the giant blade in his hand. A fearsome flash of blade light appeared, and space itself seemed ready to tear apart and shatter as the sword intent collapsed wildly.
Luo Wanwan frowned and pressed her delicate hand down toward the empty space before her. The towering sword intent instantly formed a sword that shot out, colliding with the giant blade slashing toward her.
In an instant, a terrifying surge of blade intent pierced downward, and the giant blade slashed down fiercely as though shattering the void. Luo Wanwan raised her hand, placing boundless sword intent before her. With a tremendous crash, her body was sent flying backward.
After steadying herself, Luo Wanwan's pupils contracted sharply. She stared at Ning Xuanyuan. In the Ancient Eight Domains, there really was someone of her generation who could fight her to such an extent.
In that last exchange, she had clearly felt an extraordinarily formidable power of rules. Its offensive might was simply unparalleled.
Taking a deep breath, Luo Wanwan looked up at Ning Xuanyuan and said coldly, "Your Highness Xuanyuan, with your gifts, why must you insist on obtaining the Evil Emperor Xuantian's inheritance? I advise you to stop here. Wanwan will remember this favor and surely repay it someday."
"Besides, if we keep fighting, Wanwan fears she may not be able to hold back. When that happens, Your Highness, it will be too late for regrets."
After fighting to this point, Luo Wanwan had clearly changed some of her earlier thoughts. The strength Ning Xuanyuan had displayed far exceeded her expectations, and she did not want to become mortal enemies with such a monstrous genius among monstrous geniuses.
Ning Xuanyuan held the giant blade slantwise at his side and tilted his head. "Want to try?"
The inheritance of a Human Emperor powerhouse was not something one could find just anywhere. She wanted him to give it up with a single sentence? Ning Xuanyuan could only say that she had lost her mind.
Luo Wanwan lowered her eyes and nodded gently.
"In that case, Wanwan has no choice but to offend you."
As her voice fell, an even stronger sword intent flowed out from Luo Wanwan, suffused with an immensely terrifying power of destruction. Merely sensing that sword Dao intent made Ning Xuanyuan feel as though his body were breaking apart. If he were struck, the terrifying consequences were unimaginable.
The sword intent streamed outward, growing stronger and stronger, letting out a piercing, shrill howl in the void. The force emanating from Luo Wanwan had now grown terrifyingly powerful.
Sword intent flowed through the air, enveloping every direction. The next moment, Luo Wanwan stepped forward, and the terrifying sword intent erupted in an instant. Like a tribulation of the Great Dao, it slashed through everything.
Ning Xuanyuan stood ready, his gaze sharp and cold. At that moment, a wisp of sword light tore through the air like a thunderbolt, striking in an instant.
"Boom!"
With a tremendous crash, a blood-colored curtain of light appeared around Ning Xuanyuan. A powerful force swept outward, seemingly freezing the surrounding space. Yet the sharp sword was far too tyrannical. As it slashed down, a crack burst open in the blood-colored curtain.
Luo Wanwan continued forward, the terrifying pressure suffocating. Her delicate hands formed a sword seal, and another wisp of sword light descended, fast as lightning.
"Crack!"
The sound of shattering rang out again, and the blood-colored curtain shook violently.
Then, wisps of sword light tore through the air in an unending stream. Every streak contained an immensely terrifying tearing force. The blood-colored curtain shook violently, teetering on the verge of collapse.
"Kill!"
Luo Wanwan uttered the word coldly and swept down both hands, still forming the sword seal. In an instant, the curtain shattered and the sharp sword slashed down. Boundless sword intent surged toward Ning Xuanyuan, intent on annihilating him.
But at that moment, Ning Xuanyuan suddenly raised his hand, and wisps of dazzling radiance erupted from the giant blade he held.
The giant blade slashed wildly, conjuring blade light that filled the sky and collided with the Sword Qi, forming a defense so tight that neither wind nor rain could pass through.
At that moment, Ning Xuanyuan was like a descending god of war, an Asura god of slaughter!
Blade light and Sword Qi clashed madly in midair. Luo Wanwan pointed her delicate hand forward, and a force that shattered everything fell from the sky in an instant.
Ning Xuanyuan charged forward and thrust the giant blade straight out, colliding with that force. Boundless brilliant light appeared in the void, tearing space apart. Ning Xuanyuan's figure was swallowed up by the terrifying force.
Luo Wanwan moved forward, boundless sword intent swirling around her like a storm of Sword Qi. Her gaze grew sharper as she walked toward Ning Xuanyuan, step by step.
The storm of Sword Qi howled outward, descending upon Ning Xuanyuan like the light of a world-ending tribulation. If Ning Xuanyuan could not withstand it, he would surely die.
Yet Ning Xuanyuan did not evade the terrifying blow. The instant the tribulation light and sword intent descended, a sacred figure of light appeared around his body!
"Boom!"
The void shook, and heaven and earth wailed. When the countless strands of sword intent fell, they could not break through the sacred figure of light at all!
Luo Wanwan's eyes widened in disbelief.
A sharp smile appeared at the corners of Ning Xuanyuan's mouth.
Bloodline divine ability, Protection!
