Imperial City Battle (16): The Death of Duanmu Haotian

A seven-colored beam of energy appeared on the energy staff in the Fire-Winged Monkey's hand and shot rapidly toward the Five-Colored Light of the Haotian Phantom.

The seven-colored primordial energy struck the Five-Colored Light emitted by the Haotian Phantom, and the two collided, producing a series of "sizzle! sizzle! sizzle!" sounds.

Fire-Winged Monkey's attack significantly weakened the elemental energy attack within the Five-Colored Light.

When the Five-Colored Light of Haotian Phantom fell on Jiang Liu once again felt the burning sensation all over his body, just like last time.

However, he could not see any firelight in his eyes.

Therefore, Jiang Liu determined that the burning sensation was merely an illusion created within his Divine Sense sea of consciousness.

However, this burning sensation was incredibly real, and even Grandmaster like Jiang Liu, whose spiritual power had reached the Peak Grandmaster, could not avoid it.

This shows how terrifying this attack is.

After receiving the attack, Jiang Liu felt as if he had been roasted alive.

Worst of all, it seems that his vital energy has been completely depleted.

Jiang Liu was in a daze when he suddenly collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, even maintaining their posture in mid-air was no longer possible.

At this moment, the Fire-Winged Monkey flashed its body repeatedly as it chased after Jiang Liu, who was falling to the ground.

Before long, the Fire-Winged Monkey caught Jiang Liu and placed him on its back.

This prevented Jiang Liu from suffering the same fate as Duanmu Haotian.

At this moment, Duanmu Haotian fell down on the main street of the imperial city, creating a large crater in the ground.

Even if Peak Grandmaster can no longer maintain their physical form in mid-air due to insufficient internal energy, their physical strength is still terrifyingly strong.

The stones on the main street of the imperial city are not ordinary materials; even so, Duanmu Haotian still managed to smash a large crater in them.

This demonstrates just how incredibly strong this Peak Grandmaster's physical abilities are.

Duanmu Haotian had completely fallen into a coma, but the faint breath he still had indicated that he was still alive.

As for whether he can be saved, that depends on what Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue think.

After the heavenly fire and the Five-Colored Light that Gongsun Haoyue unleashed dissolved each other, she casually blocked the last bit of Five-Colored Light that remained.

After Gongsun Haoyue completely blocked the Five-Colored Light, she found that Duanmu Haotian was lying face down on the ground.

Immediately, her figure fell directly towards the ground where Duanmu Haotian had fallen.

Gongsun Haoyue's figure remained suspended above the ground where Duanmu Haotian had fallen.

Gongsun Haoyue sensed the aura emanating from Duanmu Haotian and discovered that Duanmu Haotian's current condition was very bad. Even if she tried to treat him now, it would probably be too late.

Moreover, even if there were still hope for him, Gongsun Haoyue would not treat him; she would only kill him as soon as possible.

After all these years, my dream has finally come true.

Just as Gongsun Haoyue raised the Skyfire Staff, intending to deliver another fatal blow to Duanmu Haotian...

Suddenly, the aura of a Grandmaster appeared beside Gongsun Haoyue.

At the same time, another Grandmaster -level aura followed closely behind him.

However, Gongsun Haoyue did not stop her attack. She still launched an attack on Duanmu Haotian with her Skyfire Staff.

A fierce burst of fire suddenly appeared and enveloped Duanmu Haotian.

At this moment, the Grandmaster of Haotian Sect, who had rushed over at the last minute, angrily slashed at Gongsun Haoyue with his sword, and a huge blade of light flashed.

With a casual wave of his left hand, Gongsun Haoyue all the blades that were slashing towards him flying back.

At the same time, the heavenly fire that attacked Duanmu Haotian also enveloped Duanmu Haotian completely.

Enveloped in the flames, Duanmu Haotian let out an unconscious groan, and soon after, he fell silent.

At this moment, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, who had already withstood the attack of the Five-Colored Light, also appeared in the sky above the place where Duanmu Haotian fell.

At this moment, Flowing Cloud Matriarch looked haggard and no longer had the radiant and calm demeanor he once possessed.

Even the aura emanating from her body began to become somewhat unstable.

It seems that Duanmu Haotian's final blow also made Flowing Cloud Matriarch feel quite uncomfortable.

However, Flowing Cloud Matriarch managed to withstand the attack.

A bolt of lightning struck from a clear sky, heading straight for the spot where Duanmu Haotian had fallen.

It turned out that Flowing Cloud Matriarch and launched an attack on Duanmu Haotian.

After Flowing Cloud Matriarch launched his attack, the place where Duanmu Haotian fell suddenly emitted streams of chaotic energy.

Moreover, this chaotic flow of primordial energy is quite different from when Dao Fan and Jiang Zongquan died; even the sky is showing some strange changes.

Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue looked up at the sky at the same time, as if sensing something, only to find that the sky had turned dark at some point.

The sky, which was just sunny a moment ago, is now filled with dark clouds that seem to have appeared out of nowhere, gathering from all directions and accompanied by gusts of strong wind.

The sky over this area gradually began to darken.

However, this strange phenomenon did not last long, and the sun reappeared in the sky.

Moreover, Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue, whether it was their imagination or not, felt that the sky seemed brighter than before.

Moreover, they felt, in some mysterious way, that the shackles on their bodies had loosened a little.

They sensed that their Star Cloud Saint Art had improved further after this battle.

A scream of pain interrupted Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue's reverie.

The Grandmaster Haotian Sect who had been casually countered by Gongsun Haoyue had already been killed by the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect who had been chasing after them.

He was really unlucky; he was caught in a pincer attack by Gongsun Haoyue and the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect, and lost his life for nothing.

Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue landed and approached Duanmu Haotian.

They needed to make a thorough confirmation as to whether Duanmu Haotian was truly and completely dead.

After all, there are secret methods for faking death in this world.

Therefore, they need to confirm it in person before they can feel at ease.

However, before the two could get close, Duanmu Haotian's body, which had been emitting chaotic energy just moments before, suddenly exploded with a "bang!"

The explosion caught Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue completely off guard, leaving them no time to dodge or activate their protective shields.

Now, Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue can confirm for sure that Duanmu Haotian is indeed dead.

However, it left the two of them in a sorry state, covered in blood.

The two women stomped their feet in frustration, and simultaneously looked up at the Grandmaster of the Haotian Sect who was still fighting in mid-air.
