The Great Heavenly Venerate, fused within the Bone Emperor Blade, exuded a sharpness and deathly stillness at this moment, causing the dragon scales covering Qing Shan's body to instinctively bristle!
After all, the blade was less than half a foot away from his forehead! The chilling sensation of death was clearly tangible!
"Hey, your reaction time isn't slow!"
The strike missed its mark, and once again, the Great Heavenly Venerate's eerie laughter, tinged with the sound of metal scraping, emanated from the Bone Emperor Blade. The blade trembled, and a strange, penetrating sound, seemingly capable of piercing directly into the depths of the soul, suddenly resounded!
"Myriad Soul God-Slaying Slash!"
With a strange laugh, countless blood-red blade shadows, condensed to the point of being tangible, instantly appeared, densely packed, almost filling the entire space around the four people, forming a Death Blade Prison!
Each blade shadow locked onto a vital point, the incomparably sharp blade light mixed with the Blood Fiend Qi that corroded the soul, like a torrential downpour, covering them without any blind spots!
Faced with the Bone Emperor Blade's relentless, eerie, and ruthless attacks after its fusion, the four of them were extremely solemn and dared not be negligent in the slightest.
Their dragon blood boiled, and their boundless golden Dou Qi surged forth, manifesting either as enormous arms covered in thick dragon scales or as solid Dragon Scale Armor, as they fought desperately to resist, block, and dodge.
"Clang! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Countless sharp blade shadows collided with the dragon's arms, claws, and Dragon Scale Armor, instantly unleashing a continuous barrage of metallic clang and the roar of energy explosions. Sparks flew everywhere, and the space was continuously torn open with jagged, pitch-black cracks.
Each collision caused a slight numbness in the arms of Qing Shan and the others. The Blood Fiend Qi contained in the blade shadows relentlessly tried to erode their Protective Dou Qi, penetrate their bodies, and corrode their flesh and soul!
"This can't go on! After this thing merged, its attacks are too bizarre, and its power seems inexhaustible!"
An elder from the former South Dragon Island shouted sternly. A shallow bloodstain had been cut on his dragon arm. Although it healed instantly, the Blood Fiend Qi attached to it caused him a stinging pain.
"Roar!!!"
At this moment, Qing Shan could no longer hold back. He had been suppressed by this strange Bone Emperor Blade, which made him extremely frustrated. So, accompanied by a deafening dragon roar, he suddenly burst out of his mouth, and a dazzling golden light instantly engulfed him!
His body rapidly expanded and deformed in the golden light, covered with palm-sized golden dragon scales, his limbs transformed into sharp, incomparable dragon claws, and his head became a majestic and ferocious Giant Dragon's head!
The Ancient Void Dragon True Form —appears!
Seeing this, the other three knew that it would be difficult to defeat this desperate Man-Blade Unity- state in a short time using only their Half-Dragon Transformation form. Without further hesitation, they immediately let out a dragon roar!
"Roar!" "Roar!" "Roar!"
Three more earth-shaking dragon roars rang out in succession, followed by bursts of dazzling golden light!
In the blink of an eye, four colossal Ancient Void Dragon, each as large as a mountain, covered in shimmering golden scales and radiating an ancient, primordial pressure, appeared out of thin air in this sealed-off world!
The enormous dragon's body almost filled the sky, casting a shadow that completely enveloped the dilapidated palace below. The terrifying Dragon Might, like a tangible tsunami, mixed with powerful Spatial Fluctuations, swept out unrestrainedly, even diluting much of the Blood Fiend Qi emanating from the Bone Emperor Blade!
The four ancient dragons revealed their True Body, and the battle instantly entered its most primal and frenzied phase!
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
Although the massive Bone Emperor Blade was strange and powerful, it finally began to falter under the combined attack of four Ancient Void Dragons, all of whom had reached the level of Two-Star Dou Saint and had revealed their strongest forms.
A dragon's tail swept across like a golden mountain range, lashing the blade with a deafening roar;
A colossal dragon Space-Tearing, slamming down with the power to shatter stars;
The other ancient dragon opened its mouth and spewed out an extremely hot Dragon Breath, a mixture of a highly condensed Spatial Storm and the Dragon Origin Flame, scorching the Blood light on the blade;
The last ancient dragon went even further, using its absolute control over space to continuously solidify and compress the space around the Bone Emperor Blade, restricting its elusive movements.
Under the combined onslaught of these four colossal creatures, the Blood light on the Bone Emperor Blade quickly dimmed, and the dense, crimson "vessels" began to break inch by inch.
Finally, at a certain moment, accompanied by a crisp yet despairing shattering sound...
"Crack--Bang!"
The massive Bone Emperor Blade, unable to withstand the combined strangulation, lashing, and compression of those terrifying dragon bodies, shattered with a deafening roar! It transformed into countless pale bone fragments and scattered Bloody Energy!
"Pfft!"
At the same time, an extremely aged and withered figure, its aura as weak as a candle flickering in the wind, was also violently ejected from the core of the shattered blade, falling from the sky like a broken sack.
Blood gushed from his mouth as if it were free, tracing a gruesome arc in the air.
It is indeed the Great Heavenly Venerate!
His state of Man-Blade Unity was forcibly broken. He lost the support of the Bone Emperor Blade and suffered a fatal backlash, falling heavily into the deep pit below, kicking up clouds of dust.
At this moment, Lin Ming, who had been hovering in the sky and calmly observing the entire battle, slowly exhaled a breath of stale air that had been suppressed in his chest.
His gaze swept to the other side, where the battle had long since ended.
The Soul Hall's Second Heavenly Venerate Gu You, and Third Heavenly Venerate had already been swiftly killed by the three Ancient Dragon Elders, and their souls, like those of the Dou Venerate, were directly sealed within their remaining bodies, becoming materials awaiting refinement.
Now, in the entire Soul Hall Human Hall, apart from that faint, firefly-like aura in the deep pit below, all resistance forces at the level of Dou Venerate or above have been completely wiped out.
Lin Ming's gaze was indifferent, like an eternal, unyielding ice, as he slowly cast it toward the deep pit where the smoke and dust had not yet completely dissipated.
There, a faint Life Aura still lingered, flickering as if it might be extinguished at any moment.
Clearly, the once powerful and influential Great Heavenly Venerate of the Soul Hall, who reigned supreme over the Human Hall, still had a few breaths left.
"Kill!"
Lin Ming's eyes were icy cold, devoid of any pity or hesitation, as if they were formed from Myriad Years Profound Ice.
He looked down at the smoke-filled pit below, where the faint, fluctuating energy seemed like a candle flickering in the wind to him, yet it was also the last stubborn symbol of the Soul Hall Human Hall. Under the Great Heavenly Venerate's gaze, Lin Ming said no more, but simply raised his palm, aimed it at the bottom of the pit, and like a judge who held the reins of life and death, decisively and swiftly swung it down!
That gesture was the final judgment, a swift and decisive order to eradicate any remaining threats!
"Yes, sir!"
The four enormous ancient dragons, which had been poised to strike, moved at the command.
Their mountain-like heads tilted back slightly, and dazzling light instantly gathered in their mouths!
That was not a simple energy breath, but a destructive torrent that combined the original Dragon Force of the Ancient Void Dragon, Law Fragments, and the characteristics of their respective bloodlines!
The ancient dragon that the Qing Shan transformed from had the most intense golden light in its mouth, as if it contained a miniature sun. Wherever the light reached, space was slightly distorted and melted, which was the manifestation of ultimate power and high temperature.
Another ancient dragon, transformed from a former elder of West Dragon Island, exhaled a dark silver breath, within which countless tiny Spatial Rift seemed to be creating and disappearing, emanating a terrifying aura that could sever all things and return them to nothingness.
The third Ancient Dragon Elder's breath carried a heavy, earthy-yellow luster, majestic and powerful, as if it carried the Earth Power. Once it fell, it would be enough to crush thousands of miles of mountains and rivers into dust.
The Last Place exhaled a deep, dark blue, like an icy abyss in the polar regions. Even before the chill arrived, the aura of freezing the soul and extinguishing life had already spread.
Four dragon breaths, each with different attributes yet equally destructive, converged to their fullest extent before the four gigantic mouths. In the next moment, they would pour down like four roaring rivers of destruction towards the dying Great Heavenly Venerate at the bottom of the deep pit!
This attack, imbued with the deadly intent of four Two-Star Dou Saints, was so powerful that even if the Great Heavenly Venerate were at his peak, let alone at his current exhaustion, he would have no chance of withstanding it! annihilation of both body and soul would be the only outcome!
Energy surged, Dragon Might surged, and the shadow of death descended as if it were a tangible force. The Great Heavenly Venerate in the deep pit seemed to sense this final despair as well. His faint aura rippled with a hint of unwillingness, but quickly subsided, as if he had already resigned himself to his fate.
However, just as these four destructive breaths were about to leave the dragon's mouth and crash down like Heavenly River pouring down—
"Buzz!!!"
An indescribable, terrifying energy surge, far surpassing all previous energy levels, suddenly erupted from the deepest part of that Black Giant Hall!
This fluctuation was not a simple energy surge; it carried an ancient, savage pressure that seemed to originate from the Soul Origin, like Fierce Beasts had slumbered for millennia suddenly opening its cold eyes!
"What?!"
The fluctuation was so sudden and powerful that even the four Two-Star Dou Saint dragons, including Qing Shan, who had revealed their true forms, felt a sudden sinking feeling in their hearts, and the Dragon Breath they were about to unleash was momentarily halted!
A flicker of surprise and horror flashed across their enormous dragon eyes! This aura... it was an existence beyond their own, carrying a sense of oppression that made them feel as if they were facing several great Dragon King!
Then, under everyone's astonished gaze, the space above the Great Heavenly Venerate, which had been fragmented due to the fierce battle, suddenly began to twist strangely!
The space there was no longer shattered, but rippled violently like water, and its color became deep and dark.
A figure, in the center of this distorted space, materialized from the ethereal and slowly took a step forward!
His appearance seemed to bring with it an invisible domain. The chaotic energy currents that had been running rampant due to the appearance of the four ancient dragons in their True Body involuntarily calmed down and became tamed when they approached within a hundred feet of him.
The four Dragon Breath, poised to unleash their power, were also blocked by an invisible barrier. Their energy fluctuated violently, yet they could not advance even an inch further!
At the same time, an exceptionally powerful aura, like a primordial tidal wave, swept out without reservation from the figure within the space sealed off by the Three Great Dragon Kings!
This aura was cold and deathly still, yet it carried an arrogance and majesty that transcended all living beings.
Like an invisible storm, it swept over everyone's body and soul, causing the three One-Star Dou Saint Ancient Dragon Elder, who were collecting "materials," to change their expressions drastically. They involuntarily took a half step back, their Dou Qi surging wildly within them to resist the oppressive force.
The entire battlefield fell into an eerie stillness due to this sudden turn of events.
Four enormous ancient dragons hovered in the sky, their Dragon Breath contained and not released. Their huge dragon eyes were fixed on the figure that had appeared out of nowhere, filled with unprecedented vigilance and solemnity.
The atmosphere of Sure of Victory that victory was assured was instantly shattered, replaced by a sense of tension and oppression stemming from an unknown and formidable enemy.
The figure was shrouded in Black Mist, with only a pair of emotionless, abyss-like eyes that pierced through the barriers of space. First, they swept over the dying Great Heavenly Venerate in the deep pit, and then they locked onto Lin Ming, who had given the order to kill.
