Ouyang Xia suddenly stood in front of Zhuge Bafang. Although he was also a mid-stage Imperial Lord- level power, he was slightly superior to Lin Baigu.

In reality, even within the realms of Imperial Lord- level power, there are further distinctions such as the first, second, and third levels.

In other words, although both are Mid-stage Imperial Lord level experts, their strengths are not entirely the same.

If we had to put it in perspective, Lin Baigu possessed the strength of Mid-Stage Imperial Lord, First Heaven, while Ouyang Xia was at the Mid-Stage Imperial Lord, Third Heaven.

In terms of strength, Ouyang Xia should be able to crush Lin Baigu. In fact, Ouyang Xia did not hold back and used all his spiritual power to crush Lin Baigu.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, even if they weren't completely immobilized, they would still be suppressed for a moment by this terrifying spiritual pressure. However, Lin Baigu completely ignored this pressure.

Lin Baigu originally intended to attack Zhuge Bafang, but seeing Ouyang Xia blocking his way, he changed his target without hesitation.

This time, the target is none other than Ouyang Xia's skull!

What is this thing? It's strange!

Ouyang Xia was startled, and her gaze toward Lin Baigu was filled with surprise.

However, this surprise only extended to Pan Ke; Ouyang Xia's purple-gold dragon robe then emitted a dazzling golden light.

Nine dazzling Dragon Race phantoms appeared in the void, accompanied by a buzzing sound. The nine dragon figures became more and more solid, almost as if they were real.

"Sing!", "Sing!", "Sing!"...

Nine golden dragons raised their heads and roared in unison; with a gentle flick of their tails, they could shatter countless stars.

Each golden dragon carried the aura of Imperial Lord as it charged towards Lin Baigu.

However, Lin Baigu's response remained unchanged, still relying on his long spear to deal with any situation.

Each time the spear was swung, a golden rune would appear on it, and as the spear swept out, the golden rune would float away.

"Buzz..."

The golden runes floated lightly onto the golden Dragon Race phantom and merged into its body in an instant.

Then, before the golden dragon phantom could even struggle, it vanished into the world.

This is precisely Lin Baigu's second talent— He Yun Po Tian!

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

Eight golden runes were unleashed in succession, instantly causing a golden dragon to vanish. In just three breaths, all nine golden dragon phantoms were destroyed by Lin Baigu.

This efficiency was so fast that it left all the cultivators from the Four Great Star Domains watching in awe.

This strange skeletal man is incredibly powerful!

Before the cultivators from the Four Great Star Domains could continue their sighs, Lin Baigu had already charged forward without stopping.

The purple flames in his eyes flickered slightly before he said coldly, "It's time to end this!"

"Boom..."

The next second, the silver-white spear flew out of his hand, and the white spear attacked Ouyang Xia like a javelin.

The cultivators didn't even understand what was happening; they could only see that in the blink of an eye, Lin Baigu's spear had already reached Ouyang Xia.

Ouyang Xia's pupils contracted sharply; in that instant, he seemed to sense the presence of death.

"Hmph!" Ouyang Xia snorted coldly, her gaze fixed on Lin Baigu.

Excellent, this is a feeling he has never experienced before in his entire life.

In an instant, Ouyang Xia condensed a vast amount of spiritual power, trying to forcefully stop Lin Baigu's attack. However, the long spear was still unstoppable, and its speed was hardly affected!

My spiritual power was completely ignored!

Ouyang Xia stared in disbelief at the white spear getting closer and closer, but it only took her a moment to realize what was happening!

This power is so strong that it can ignore spiritual energy defenses and attacks!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

After two loud bangs, the entire Mortal Star Domain trembled uncontrollably.

"Buzz..."

That terrifying surge of spiritual energy carried an overwhelming sadness, and then... countless cultivators in the Mortal Star Domain heard the drumbeats that had become incredibly familiar to them in recent days.

"Thump, thump, thump!"...

The drumbeats continued, one after another, in groups of three, for a total of twelve groups!

The Heavenly Drum struck thirty-six times, signifying the fall of a powerful figure at the Imperial Lord level!

The sound of the Heavenly Drum resounded throughout the Four Great Star Domains. At this moment, every cultivator could feel a deep sorrow from the bottom of their heart.

This sorrow originates from the spiritual energy flowing within the body; it is a fundamental, Qingxu.

"Now... a powerful Imperial Lord expert has fallen..."

While the cultivators of the Wind and Cloud Star Domain, the Big Dipper Star Domain, Southern Heaven Star Domain were speechless with shock, the cultivators of the Mortal Star Domain were somewhat numb.

They had heard the sound of that Heavenly Drum countless times before.

Previously, more than a dozen powerful Great Emperor had fallen one after another in the Mortal Star Domain, and they had almost become numb to it.

The mournful sound of drums echoed across Hongmeng Mountain. Lin Yu listened to the drums, toying with a white jade chess piece in his hand, but shook his head helplessly.

"A full thirty-six shots! This Imperial Lord- level expert certainly has quite the grand entourage!"

"But that makes sense. After all, they've lived for so long and consumed a lot of starfield resources, so their demise is indeed a sad thing!"

Lin Yu's "carefree" words ultimately failed to reach the Mausoleum Dynasty.

The atmosphere at the Mausoleum Dynasty remains tense.

Lin Baigu was suspended in the void, his gaze fixed on the void not far away, his emotions unreadable.

Although Lin Baigu was just a Baigu, he wasn't stupid. He didn't think he could kill Ouyang Xia so easily.

Moreover, the Heavenly Drum only sounded thirty-six times. Lin Baigu had not forgotten that Ouyang Xia and Zhuge Bafang were both Imperial Lord- level powerhouses!

If both people were dead, there should have been 72 rings, but only 36 rings were heard, which means only one person died.

Sure enough, not long after, the void not far away flickered slightly, and Ouyang Xia's figure appeared in the void.

Lin Baigu didn't know what method Ouyang Xia used to escape his attack at the last moment. Perhaps it was some special defensive magic weapon, or perhaps it was simply a substitution technique.

Lin Baigu had no interest in anything; only one thing was on his mind: the task Lin Yu had given him.

"Again!" Lin Baigu shouted, reaching out and tearing a piece of Baigu from his body. The Baigu transformed into a new long spear in his hand!

At the same time, Lin Baigu's body was healing rapidly.
