In the Great Void, the black dragon wailed, thrashing like a creature on the brink of death.
Flame Dragon Venerable's mind reeled under its influence. For a moment, his dragon blood surged backward, threatening to slip beyond his control.
Seeing this, Divine Lord Weilie urged the Sin Dragon Life-Reaping Spear in his hand forward without hesitation.
In an instant, the spear transformed into a sin dragon. Bearing malice at its most extreme, it tore through the void, intent on seizing Flame Dragon Venerable's life and killing him utterly.
But just then, Flame Dragon Venerable, who had seemed on the verge of losing control, abruptly regained his clarity. He watched the black dragon tear through the Great Void toward him, yet there was no trace of panic in his eyes—only a hint of mockery.
"A clever scheme. Unfortunately for you, you're still one move short."
As he worked his divine ability, Flame Dragon Venerable conjured two chains of flame with a casual motion. With a turn of his hand, he bound Bloodslaughter and Nefarious Flame, giving neither any chance to flee.
Caught by this sudden turn, Bloodslaughter Divine Lord and Sinfire Sacred Venerable, who had approached Flame Dragon Venerable of their own accord, had no way to evade him.
At the sight, the unease in Divine Lord Weilie's heart surged to its peak. But it was already too late.
"The world knows of Dragon-Slaying Weapons and dragon-slaying arts, but not the many corresponding secret arts once created by the True Dragon Immortal Estate."
"Go!"
Watching the Sin Dragon Life-Reaping Spear close in, Flame Dragon Venerable, long prepared, breathed out a glimmer of spiritual light.
As the light fell, the Sin Dragon Life-Reaping Spear, which should have pierced him and torn both his body and spirit apart, let out a resounding roar.
