Dragon Scale Sword, a Peerless Spiritual Artifact.

Throughout the Northern Heavens Continent, it was one of the foremost deadly weapons.

Even within the deeply established Dragon Demon Palace, only a select few could possess one.

Demon Dragon Son had earned such a reward through his own efforts.

Relying on the power of the Peerless Spiritual Artifact, the Dragon Scale Sword, he had reached a level infinitely close to the Heaven-reaching Realm while at the peak of the Transforming Heaven Realm.

He could even wage a great battle against a true Heaven-reaching Realm expert.

He had never imagined that his incredibly powerful Peerless Spiritual Artifact, the Dragon Scale Sword, would be severed in an instant!

"The sword in your hand... is it a Divine Artifact?!"

Only something even more powerful than a Peerless Spiritual Artifact could sever one!

A Divine Artifact was a supreme treasure that only the foremost experts of the Supreme Realm could possess!

Even in the Dragon Demon Palace or the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, they were exceedingly rare.

Demon Dragon Son had always taken pride in the Peerless Spiritual Artifact in his hand, believing that with the Dragon Scale Sword, he had nothing to fear.

Yet Luo Li's strike had truly shattered his very Dao heart!

That Silver-haired Girl, so much younger than him, was actually wielding a Divine Artifact!

"Your imagination is truly lacking."

Luo Li's response was full of disdain.

Perhaps in Demon Dragon Son's understanding, only a Divine Artifact could sever a Peerless Spiritual Artifact.

But he had no idea that above Divine Artifacts, there were Quasi-Saint Objects.

And even genuine Saint Objects!

Saint Objects were likewise divided into Spirit Grade, Immortal Grade, and Saint Grade!

"My imagination is lacking!?"

Demon Dragon Son laughed angrily.

His heart was pounding, yet he forced himself to remain calm.

"You are being far too presumptuous. Not even the higher-ups of your Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy dare to confront the Dragon Demon Palace head-on."

"If you dare kill me, the Supreme Realm experts of the Dragon Demon Palace will surely grind your bones to dust."

"Even more Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy students will become vengeful souls beneath the hands of my countless Dragon Demon Guards!"

"This never had to happen. It is because you kept forcing us again and again!"

He actually wanted to morally blackmail Luo Li!

"Enough noise!"

The Luo God Sword in Luo Li's hand flashed with light, and a streak of silver radiance shot forth.

It was so sharp that the air itself let out repeated tearing shrieks.

"You dare!"

Demon Dragon Son roared and decisively turned to flee.

His entire figure transformed into countless streams of sword qi, piercing in every direction.

Luo Li had already anticipated Demon Dragon Son's escape.

Upon her shoulder, the exquisite Little Nine Netherbird opened its beak.

A wisp of Black Flame soared into the sky, transforming into a gigantic black bird that blotted out the heavens.

Surging Black Flame instantly covered the entire White Dragon City, burning all the sword qi to nothing.

"Ah!"

One stream of sword qi was forced to reveal Demon Dragon Son's utterly bedraggled figure.

Strands of Black Flame burned across his body, causing him immense pain.

"What kind of flame is this? Why are my Divine Soul, spiritual energy, and even flesh being burned away!"

Demon Dragon Son's final words echoed through heaven and earth.

Countless people watched the scene with expressions of horror.

That was Demon Dragon Son.

He was the strongest Heaven-reaching Realm-below prodigy of the Dragon Demon Palace currently active on the Northern Heavens Continent!

Even the strongest member of the younger generation on the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy's Heavenly Ranking had failed to take him down.

And now, he had actually been dealt with by a Silver-haired Girl no one had ever heard of!

It was simply unbelievable!

"Demon Dragon Son's head!"

That head, its forehead marked by a savage demonic dragon pattern, was directly seized through the air by Little Nine Netherbird.

This was a treasure that could be exchanged for Northern Sea Dragon Kun Divine Beast Blood Essence.

Although Luo Li could easily kill Demon Dragon Son, Little Nine Netherbird knew that the Dragon Demon Palace had Supreme Realm experts.

To prevent any accidents, she had still chosen to act personally.

With overwhelming force, she directly erased Demon Dragon Son.

"We must leave this city immediately. The Dragon Demon Palace will go mad next."

Zhao Chen's voice rang out at that moment.

Although White Dragon City had become Luo Li's Luo God City, they should not linger here any longer.

The death of Demon Dragon Son, the Dragon Demon Palace's foremost prodigy, meant that they would break the unspoken rules maintained for many years and personally enter the fray to kill the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy's young prodigies.

Supreme Realm experts could already tear through space and traverse the Northern Heavens Continent in a short time.

Dean Ta Cang would only arrive later than the Black Dragon Supreme of the Dragon Demon Palace.

After all, one was in the open while the other was in the shadows, and the two remained in a state of balance.

"Alright."

Luo Li held the Nine-Colored Spiritual Value Token and sent a message to Dean Ta Cang.

Then, she decisively brought An Ran, who had yet to recover from her shock, into the great teleportation array at the city center.

Two seconds after the teleportation array activated, a black dragon claw that seemed capable of holding up the heavens suddenly reached forth.

The enormous plaza was forcibly torn away, turning into an abyssal black hole.

"Black Dragon Supreme, your temper is still as fierce as ever."

Just as the black dragon claw was about to destroy the entire city, a cyan spiritual palm emerged and collided with it head-on.

Neither Dean Ta Cang nor the Black Dragon Supreme appeared in person.

After confronting each other for a while, the clash ended with a cold snort from the Black Dragon Supreme, who directly withdrew.

However, Dean Ta Cang knew full well that the Dragon Demon Palace would become utterly frenzied next.

"Luo Li has already reached the Heaven-reaching Realm. It seems the Luo God Clan gave her some treasure."

Still seated within the great hall of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, Dean Ta Cang opened his eyes. He had exchanged blows with the Black Dragon Supreme across the air, and the other man's strength remained formidable.

If the Black Dragon Supreme were to recover the Dragon Demon Palace's supreme treasure and break through to the Sixth-grade Supreme Realm,

then he would no longer be able to suppress him.

As for Luo Li's strength, Dean Ta Cang was greatly surprised.

But upon thinking it over carefully, it was understandable.

After all, behind Luo Li stood the Luo God Clan, which had once stood at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World.

No matter how much they had declined, they were not a force that the Five Great Academies could compare themselves to.

With Demon Dragon Son slain by Luo Li, the Dragon Demon Palace would certainly launch a mad retaliation against the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy.

But if the Dragon Demon Palace learned of Luo Li's background, they would likely redirect their fury toward the already thoroughly dead Demon Dragon Son.

What had he done to provoke such a top prodigy with such a terrifying background?

Demon Dragon Son was the Dragon Demon Palace's strongest prodigy apart from Mo Xingtian, and he ranked among the best of the countless prodigies on the Northern Heavens Continent.

But this was only the Northern Heavens Continent. Beyond it lay an even broader world!

"The second-ranked Demon Dragon Son on the Bounty Ranking has finally died."

Dean Ta Cang's expression relaxed considerably, revealing a trace of delight.

To be honest, he had worried over this for a long time.

He had originally hoped Shen Cangsheng could kill him, but he had to admit that it was only a hope.

For quite some time, Shen Cangsheng and Demon Dragon Son would be unable to widen the gap between them.

"Worthy of a Spirit Crown!"

Dean Ta Cang stood and muttered to himself, "Now that our Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy has an unparalleled prodigy no weaker than Mo Xingtian, the final battle with the Dragon Demon Palace is not far away."

The grudge of several hundred years had made coexistence between the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy and the Dragon Demon Palace impossible.

This was a life-and-death struggle between them!

Luo Li and An Ran, who had successfully returned to Northern Heavens City through the teleportation array, were both still shaken.

That was because the Black Dragon Supreme's claw had nearly interrupted their spatial teleportation.

Once the teleportation passage shattered, they would have been sent to an unknown and dangerous place!

If it had been more serious, they might have been torn to pieces on the spot by spatial turbulence, with no possibility of survival!

Thankfully, thankfully Zhao Chen had warned them in time.

At that moment, Zhao Chen held the ancient Great Luo Sword Embryo, which glimmered with black light, and let out a long sigh.

"If the Great Luo Sword Embryo hadn't devoured part of that Supreme Realm power, we might not have made it back."

All below the Supreme Realm were ants.

Only after this experience did Zhao Chen truly understand those words.

Reaching the Heaven-reaching Realm was merely the beginning.

Beyond that, there were still the Sovereign Three Difficulties!

Zhao Chen's gaze hardened as he said in a low voice:

"Now, we must help Little Nine Netherbird successfully overcome her tribulation, then kill our way back!"
