"Humm!"
As Gu Chenfeng unleashed a One-Axe Strike,
a dazzling crimson-gold axe shadow, like a shooting star, swept out, warping the void.
With the might to cleave mountains and split the earth, it locked onto Ye Beixuan, who was bound by countless vines, and slashed down viciously.
Ye Beixuan's gaze instantly locked onto the One-Axe Strike Gu Chenfeng had aimed at him.
His pupils abruptly contracted, as though he had sensed an immense danger.
"Hah!"
With a fierce roar, he unleashed all his power, shattering most of the vines binding his right arm.
He then poured vast amounts of violet-flame Yuan Force into the Soul-Eroding Banner in his hand.
He hurled it fearlessly at the axe shadow Gu Chenfeng had unleashed.
"Whoosh!"
The instant the Soul-Eroding Banner left his hand, it swelled rapidly in the wind, and the dark violet flames and sinister baleful energy within it were instantly driven to their limit!
They became a torrent that clashed head-on with the axe shadow.
"Boom...!"
A deafening explosion rang out.
Before the Heaven-Opening axe shadow, which contained matchless sharpness and strength, the seemingly surging violet-black torrent held out for only a few breaths.
"Riiip..."
It was torn straight apart by the axe shadow, which then continued toward Ye Beixuan with the irresistible force of smashing rotten wood.
At the sight, Ye Beixuan's heart tightened, and he gritted his teeth.
"Explode!"
The Black Long Banner on the Soul-Eroding Banner exploded at his command.
"Bang...!"
The incomparably violent sinister baleful energy and violet flames detonated, unleashing terrifying destructive might that engulfed the crimson-gold axe shadow and actually canceled out most of its power.
Only a dim, insubstantial axe shadow continued toward Ye Beixuan.
It was blocked by a barrier of violet flames he had formed in advance before him and gradually dissipated.
