Ancient Void Dragon Appears!

Is this the end?

Lin Ming sighed inwardly. He never expected that after transmigrating to this Dou Qi Continent, experiencing countless hardships and dangers, growing from an unknown nobody to a Four-Star Dou Ancestor, he would ultimately perish here.

He transmigrated and gained a new life, a family, Clan Leader like Grandpa Liu and Elder Hai, a teacher who taught him alchemy Elder Huo, his childhood sweetheart Ya Fei, and beloved women like Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan. He received guidance and instruction from elders like Elder Yao, and once lived a life of adventure and triumph... Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem like such a bad deal after all?

With great difficulty, Lin Ming moved his almost frozen arms and used all his strength to tightly grasp Xiao Yi Xian's cold and slightly trembling jade hands on his left and Zi Yan's small hands, which still contained indomitable strength.

Xiao Yi Xian sensed his movement and returned a firm grip. Her clear, cold eyes were fixed on Lin Ming, filled with determination, as if to say: No matter life or death, we will be together, sharing life and death.

Zi Yan gripped Lin Ming's hand even tighter, her purple eyes wide open, staring fearlessly at the distant Bing He. Her small face was filled with defiance and anger, as if she wanted to fight the Bing He to the death.

Since that's the case, having a beautiful woman by my side and a master to guide me on the road to the Yellow Spring won't make me feel so lonely. Lin Ming thought to himself, a relieved smile appearing on his face.

He slowly closed his eyes, no longer looking at the ice crystal that was about to take his life. His heart was at peace as he quietly awaited the final moment.

He was prepared to face death with equanimity.

The Chaos- colored ice crystal, as if transcending the barriers of space and time, silently shot towards Lin Ming and the other two with an extreme cold that could freeze souls and annihilate everything.

Its speed appears slow, but it is actually extremely fast, as if it has transcended the limitations of dimensions.

Wherever it passed, it left behind a black, frozen mark that could not be healed for a long time, as if even space itself had been completely frozen and torn apart by it.

Death is just around the corner!

However, just as the Chaos ice crystal was about to touch Lin Ming's brow, the extreme cold seeped into his body through his pores, making his very soul feel stiff—

"Roar--!!!"

A dragon's roar, seemingly from the ancient primordial era and containing boundless majesty, dominance, and world-destroying power, exploded without Nine Heavens Thunderclap in this icy and snowy world shrouded in extreme cold!

The dragon's roar was not an illusion, but carried a terrifying power that was almost tangible. Wherever the sound waves passed, the dense snowflakes falling from the sky were instantly shattered into invisible dust, turning into wisps of white mist and dissipating into nothingness.

The snow, several feet thick, on the ground was wiped away as if by an invisible giant hand, revealing the scorched earth beneath; even the houses covered in ice and snow in the distance trembled violently to the sound of the dragon's roar, and snow fell from their roofs.

The Chaos ice crystal, formed from Bing He and capable of easily annihilating ordinary Dou Venerate, couldn't even put up the slightest resistance under the impact of the dragon's roar, which contained supreme Dragon Might. It shattered and vaporized instantly, just like ice and snow under the scorching sun in winter, disappearing without a trace, leaving not even a trace of energy behind!

At the same time, the terrifying chill that had been binding Lin Ming, Xiao Yi Xian, and Zi Yan like a leech was forcibly dispelled by the domineering power contained in the dragon's roar!

His previously stiff body instantly regained sensation, and the stagnant Dou Qi within him began to flow slowly again. The suffocating sense of death receded like a tide.

"You dare to mess with my Ancient Void Dragon Clan with a mere Ice River Valley? You're all tired of living!"

Following the dragon's roar was a rough, domineering voice, filled with impatience and boundless rage.

The voice seemed to contain the Supreme Principle; every word it uttered caused the icy world controlled by the Bing He to tremble violently, and the rules of heaven and earth to become disordered.

The icy aura that permeated the heavens and earth of the Bing He began to fluctuate violently under the impact of this sound, with dense cracks appearing on its surface, showing signs of complete collapse!

"Snap!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out, and the void that the Bing He had previously frozen shattered completely like fragile glass! Countless dark Spatial Rift spread out like a spider web, and a black figure as strong as an iron tower stepped out from the broken Space Passage and landed steadily on the ground.

The newcomer was extremely burly, standing at least half a zhang tall. He wore a simple yet incredibly sturdy black outfit, beneath which his muscles bulged like coiled dragons, each muscle brimming with explosive power, as if containing earth-shattering energy.

His face was rugged, with sharp features, as if carved by a knife and axe. His short black hair stood up like steel needles, giving him a very aggressive look.

What's most striking is his unique pair of pupils—vertical pupils that look like they're made of pure gold!

At this moment, those golden vertical pupils burned with raging fury, like two leaping Golden Flame, staring intently at the Bing He above the black ice stairs. An undisguised, terrifying pressure, like the boundless might of Dragon Might, swept across the entire world!

This person was none other than Hei Qing, the warrior from Ancient Void Dragon East Dragon Island who sensed a trace of bloodline fluctuation in an unknown space, and then followed the bloodline sensation on Zi Yan's body, Space-Tearing all the way and rushing here without stopping!

An unfathomable Eight-Star Dou Venerate peak powerhouse!

Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Hei Qing, like a primordial beast, and the Ancient Void Dragon, Bing He's usually calm and indifferent expression finally underwent a dramatic change for the first time!

His pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints, his eyes filled with disbelief and deep apprehension, and his body even trembled slightly uncontrollably!

"The Ancient Void Dragon?! Eight-Star Dou Venerate?!"

Bing He cried out in shock, his voice even trembling slightly, a tremor he himself was unaware of!

He never imagined that this seemingly ordinary human boy, Lin Ming, would be involved with the most mysterious and powerful Magical Beasts overlord on the continent— the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!

Moreover, the one who came was a peak Eight-Star Dou Venerate expert whose strength far surpassed his! This was completely beyond his expectations, causing him to feel a deep sense of fear for the first time.

Hei Qing completely ignored Bing He's shock and fear. His golden vertical pupils quickly swept over Lin Ming, who was pale and weak. His brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, as if he was blaming Lin Ming for not protecting Zi Yan.

Immediately, his gaze settled on Zi Yan, who was being tightly protected behind Lin Ming, blinking her large purple eyes and looking at him with a hint of curiosity and an instinctive sense of closeness.

When his gaze fell upon Zi Yan and he sensed the faint yet incredibly pure and noble Ancient Void Dragon Royal Bloodline emanating from Zi Yan body, Hei Qing's massive body trembled violently. The anger on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an extreme excitement and ecstasy!

Hei Qing's body trembled slightly from excessive excitement, and his golden vertical pupils flashed with a blazing light.

"As expected! It really is royal blood! Heaven has eyes! Our East Dragon Island has finally found its lost royal bloodline!" Hei Qing's voice trembled uncontrollably as he stared intently at Zi Yan, his eyes filled with the tenderness and excitement of looking at a priceless treasure that had been lost and found again.

East Dragon Island had made countless efforts to find the royal bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon, and now that their wish had finally come true, how could he not be excited?

However, when he thought that if he had arrived even a moment later, the princess who could reunite the entire Ancient Void Dragon Clan and the future Dragon Emperor would have perished here, Hei Qing suddenly turned his head and looked at Bing He again. The Killing Intent in his eyes was almost tangible, as if he wanted to devour Bing He alive!

"Bing He! How dare you! You dare to try to kill my clan's princess! If I don't tear down your Ice River Valley today, and wipe out every single one of you, I'm not Black!"

Before he could finish speaking, Hei Qing's towering figure had already vanished from the spot! His speed was so fast that it even exceeded the limits of what the naked eye could perceive, leaving only a faint black shadow.

The next moment, Hei Qing appeared in front of Bing He as if by Instantaneous Movement. He did not use any fancy Dou Technique or gather any complex energy. He simply threw a punch!

But this seemingly ordinary punch seemed to contain the power to shatter stars and destroy heaven and earth! Wherever the fist passed, space was no longer distorted, but collapsed and shattered in large swathes, revealing the pitch-black Void Space behind it.

The extreme chill that filled the heavens and earth was like paper before this pure and absolute power, torn apart and annihilated with overwhelming force!

Bing He's expression changed drastically. Faced with Hei Qing's furious attack, he clearly felt the Threat of Death!

He dared not be negligent in the slightest, frantically urging all the Ice Venerate Strength within his body, his hands rapidly slicing in front of him, instantly forming Mystic Ice Giant Shield tens of feet thick, shimmering with the light of ancient runes, layer upon layer blocking his way. This "Mysterious Ice Guard" was one of his trump cards, enough to withstand the full-force attack of Dou Venerate of the same level.

"Mysterious Ice Guard!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

However, before Hei Qing's fist, which contained endless Dragon Force, these Mystic Ice Giant Shield, which were strong enough to withstand the attacks of Dou Venerate of the same level, shattered one after another like fragile glass!

Each collision produced a deafening roar, sending shards of ice flying everywhere. The fist's power remained undiminished, shattering all defenses with overwhelming force, and finally slamming into Bing He's arms, which were crossed in front of his chest!

"Snap!"

A sickening cracking sound echoed clearly throughout the battlefield! Bing He's arm bones shattered instantly under that terrifying force!

"Puff--!"

Bing He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with ice shards, which sprayed into the air like a red mist. His face instantly turned ashen, devoid of any color, and his arms were bent at an eerie angle, clearly completely ruined.

Bing He's body shot backward at an even faster speed than it had come, like a boulder thrown by a catapult, tracing a long arc in the air and crashing through several towering mountain peaks in the distance.

The mountain collapsed under the immense impact, burying the Bing He with countless rubble. His life force instantly weakened to the extreme, and his fate was unknown!

One punch! With just one punch from Hei Qing, Bing He, the renowned Valley Master of Ice River Valley and Five-Star Dou Venerate in the Middle Continent, was severely injured and on the verge of death!

Domineering! Powerful! Unrivaled!

This is the terrifying power of the Ancient Void Dragon! This is the absolute pressure of Eight-Star Dou Venerate peak expert!

The entire world was deathly silent.

Everyone who witnessed this scene stood frozen in shock and awe, their faces filled with disbelief and awe, as if petrified. Only after the snow and wind dissipated, the ravaged land and the terrifying energy fluctuations in the air, which had not yet completely subsided, told the story of the earth-shattering change that had just occurred in the blink of an eye, a change that was enough to alter the entire landscape of the Northern Region of the Central Plains.

Looking at this dreamlike scene, Lin Ming let out a long sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxing completely.

A strong sense of weakness surged into Lin Ming's heart like a tide, making him almost unable to stand.

Standing up, Lin Ming turned to look at Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan beside him, who were also relieved and had smiles of relief on their faces. A relaxed smile also appeared on Lin Ming's own face.

He knew that this time... he really wouldn't die!

After dealing with Bing He, Hei Qing didn't even glance at the Ruins that buried Bing He, as if Bing He were just an insignificant ant.

Hei Qing immediately turned around, and his strong body instantly appeared in front of Zi Yan. He suppressed all his pressure and Killing intent, and with an almost devout excitement and caution on his face, he slowly knelt on one knee in front of Zi Yan, who was still a little confused and did not know what was going on.

His booming voice, filled with utmost respect, resounded throughout the silent world.

"Hei Qing of East Dragon Island respectfully welcomes the Princess Returns to Clan!"
