Clang!!!
Lu Mian caught Lü Suhu off guard, dealing him another grievous blow.
But his armor was indeed a powerful magical artifact, dispersing most of the force of the Baleful Flame Heavy Blade's descending strike.
Even so, the blow sent Lü Suhu staggering back more than a dozen steps. His organs suffered a tremendous shock, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"The mighty Divine Might General."
"Is that all you've got?"
Lu Mian's mocking voice rang out.
"You weakling... you'll regret this soon."
"You only know how to launch sneak attacks with these filthy tricks. You'll never beat me!"
Lü Suhu roared, the fury inside him swelling beyond his control.
"Thick Earth Burial Coffin!"
He drove his halberd into the ground.
At that moment, Lü Suhu fully unleashed the resonance between his fate mansion and the Earth Baleful Qi, even causing the earth itself to pulse.
Rumble!!!
Earthen walls surged up from the ground, forming an enormous Earth Coffin that enclosed both him and Lu Mian.
Lu Mian felt his body grow impossibly heavy as waves of crushing pressure bore down on him.
That was what made this technique so terrifying.
The Earth Coffin restricted their fighting space, while the gravity it generated hampered movement.
"Die!"
Lü Suhu charged with his halberd, roaring furiously.
To counter the gravity, the ghost markings on Lu Mian's skin surged wildly. His muscles and bones thrummed as he unleashed one bloody blade arc after another.
Combined with Lu Mian's own Heaven-Slaying Baleful Land: Fierce, the Baleful Flame Heavy Blade was every bit as ferocious as Lü Suhu.
But an entire major realm separated them. Even with the Ghost Gate open, Lu Mian still struggled to match him.
Lu Mian could only rely on his uncanny supernatural abilities to disrupt Lü Suhu's rhythm
