"Hm?"
At that moment, the Azure Flood Dragon Clan Chief and the two Azure Flood Dragon elders all stiffened, sensing an unprecedented crisis.
"Ling Xiao!"
Lin Xuan's voice rang out as black-red radiance capable of destroying heaven and earth shone forth, changing the color of the entire world.
A streak of destructive lightning appeared beneath the vault of heaven, piercing into the azure Dao essence within a breath.
"How could this be?"
An Azure Flood Dragon elder let out a shriek, his voice filled with disbelief, his serpent face wearing an expression as though he had seen a Specter.
"The Dao essence has been broken... Th-this-this... Is this the Transcendent Realm?"
The other Azure Flood Dragon elder stammered, his heart filled with terror.
"Rip!"
In the instant of their panic, wherever the destructive lightning passed, the Dao essence vanished completely, splitting apart the azure sky.
Lin Xuan was already close. He swung the battle blade in his hand, and a blade radiance brimming with the Power of Destruction cleaved down through the air.
"Boom!"
The heavens bloomed like fireworks. The two early-stage Celestial Immortal Azure Flood Dragon elders exploded outright, shining brilliantly alongside those fireworks.
The Nine Heavens Mansion shattered, and dense Dao essence poured out, returning to heaven and earth.
"Dao Mansion... My Dao Mansion..."
"Ah... How is this possible? He is merely a Near Dao Earth Immortal—how could he cleave apart my Dao Mansion... Aaahhh..."
The two Azure Flood Dragon Clan elders were terrified beyond measure. Their exploded bodies fell in all directions; every piece of flesh and every drop of blood lost its Dao essence in an extremely short time, becoming devoid of vitality.
Within the span of a breath, the Dao essence completely vanished, and the two Celestial Immortal Azure Flood Dragon elders had already fallen.
