Clashing Blows and Crossing Words
Just at this critical moment, a high-pitched dragon roar came from the distant sky.
Everyone looked up in the direction from which the sound came.
A gigantic golden dragon was seen flying rapidly from the horizon.
Its body was thousands of feet long, covered with golden scales that shimmered in the dim light.
It has two antlers on its head, and its eyes, like lanterns, radiate a majestic light.
Five-Clawed Heavenly Dragon!
The guardian beast of Heavenly Dragon Temple!
"It's that senior!" A hint of surprise flashed in Xue Weng's eyes.
He had long heard of Li Yunjing's deeds and knew that Li Yunjing was the only person who dared to oppose the Holy Domain and still managed to escape unscathed.
The Scarlet Emperor also raised his head and looked at the golden dragon, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes.
Soon, the Five-Clawed Heavenly Dragon flew above the group.
Li Yunjing stood atop the Five-Clawed Heavenly Dragon, dressed in a flowing white robe, his expression serene.
Hei Feng and Fairy Hongling stood on either side of him.
The Five-Clawed Heavenly Dragon slowly descended.
Li Yunjing leaped down.
Hei Feng and Fairy Hongling quickly followed.
"Senior!" Xue Weng hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing's deeds made Xue Weng have to treat him with more respect.
Moreover, since Li Yunjing dared to oppose the three Dao Lords, he must have some trump cards up his sleeve.
The Scarlet Emperor is currently eyeing the Snow Race covetously. If they could join forces, the Snow Race's predicament could be resolved.
Li Yunjing nodded slightly and said, "No need for such formalities, Xue Weng."
Previously, Li Yunjing had known about the existence of the Snow Race in the Northern Domain through the map left by the True Lord Taichu.
The Xue Weng of the Snow Race is also recorded in the records of the True Lord Taichu.
After greeting Xue Weng, his gaze fell on the Scarlet Emperor.
This was the first time Li Yunjing had met the Scarlet Emperor, one of the three Dao Lords.
The Scarlet Emperor's strength is indeed well-deserved.
The Fire Element elemental power within him had been condensed to its limit, as if it could erupt at any moment and destroy everything.
Even now, Li Yunjing could feel an immense pressure.
But there was no fear on Li Yunjing's face.
With the guidance of the Old Monk Wuchen, his strength has increased several times over.
Even against the Crimson Scarlet Emperor, who had reached the Dao Union Perfection, he would have a fighting chance.
The Scarlet Emperor sized Li Yunjing up and down, his eyes filled with disdain and murderous intent. "So you're that wild outsider named Li Yunjing?"
Li Yunjing said calmly, "That's right, I am Li Yunjing."
"Very well." The Scarlet Emperor sneered, "I was just about to go looking for you, but you delivered yourself right to my doorstep. It's like you've chosen the path to hell when there's one for you!"
"Let me tell you, today not only is the Ice God's legacy mine, but your life is mine too!"
Li Yunjing's lips curled into a faint smile, "Is that so? Then we'll see if you have the ability."
"Hmph, you don't know your place!" The Scarlet Emperor sneered and said, "Boy, I'll give you a chance. Kneel down and surrender now, cripple your cultivation, and I might spare your dog's life. Otherwise, I'll make you experience the most painful tortures in the world, making you wish you were dead!"
"Oh? So confident?" Li Yunjing said calmly, "If you're so confident, why have you been hiding in the Holy Domain for so long, like a coward?"
The Scarlet Emperor's expression changed slightly.
He disliked Li Yunjing's words; they were like a slap in the face.
But the Scarlet Emperor quickly regained his composure and said with a sneer, "We can crush a nobody like you with a flick of our wrist, why bother with us!"
Besides, I'm not afraid you'll run away; the three of us have already prepared a secret weapon.
"Once I kill you and obtain the Ice God's legacy, I'll return and use my secret weapon to blast the Eastern Domain Southern Region into scorched earth! I'll make all the rebels who followed you pay with their lives!"
Li Yunjing's eyes turned cold.
What he hates most is people who threaten him.
"Since you're so eager to kill me, then I'll grant your wish." Li Yunjing raised his right hand, and the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword instantly appeared in his hand.
"Court death!"
The Scarlet Emperor was furious. He never expected that a mere Dao Union Middle Stage cultivator would dare to be so arrogant in front of him.
"Burn Heaven and Destroy Earth!"
The Scarlet Emperor roared and slammed his right fist forward.
A terrifying Fire Element- elemental power erupted from his fist, transforming into a gigantic Fire Dragon that roared and pounced towards Li Yunjing.
Wherever the Fire Dragon passed, the air ignited and the earth cracked from the heat.
In an instant, the surrounding area turned into a sea of fire.
This is the power of Dao Union Perfection expert! A single punch possesses the power to destroy the heavens and the earth!
Xue Weng and several other Dao Union cultivators from the Northern Domain turned pale with fright and retreated repeatedly.
They had no doubt that if that punch landed on them, they would be reduced to ashes in an instant.
Li Yunjing remained expressionless, his Supreme Unity Pure Subtlety Scripture full capacity within his body.
"Taiyi Qingwei Shield!"
A pale blue shield appeared out of thin air in front of Li Yunjing.
This shield, after being instructed by the Old Monk Wuchen, has incorporated the indestructible principle of Buddhism, making its defensive power several times stronger than before.
"Boom!"
The Fire Dragon crashed heavily into the shield, producing a deafening roar.
The shield shook violently, and countless fine cracks appeared on its surface, but in the end, it still managed to block the Scarlet Emperor's punch.
"What?!"
An expression of disbelief appeared on the Scarlet Emperor's face.
He couldn't believe it; a cultivator at the Dao Union Middle Stage could actually withstand his full-force attack!
Xue Weng and several other Dao Union cultivators from the Northern Domain were also stunned.
"My God! That senior actually blocked the Scarlet Emperor's attack!"
"Incredible! This senior is only at the Dao Union Middle Stage!"
"Looks like today's battle is going to be quite a spectacle!"
"..."
Hei Feng and Fairy Hongling both breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they had full confidence in Li Yunjing's strength, they still couldn't help but feel a little worried when facing the Scarlet Emperor, who had reached the Dao Union Perfection.
Seeing that Li Yunjing had blocked the Scarlet Emperor's attack, their hearts finally settled down.
Li Yunjing slowly lowered the Nine True Magnetic Light Sword, looked at the Scarlet Emperor, and said calmly, "Even the Dao Union Perfection is nothing more than this."
"You're asking for it!"
The Scarlet Emperor was thoroughly enraged by Li Yunjing's words.
He has lived for millions of years, and no one has ever dared to despise him like this.
I'm going to kill you!
The Scarlet Emperor roared and was about to launch another attack.
Just then, the Ice God Palace suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light.
Rumble...
The palace gates slowly opened inwards.
An even larger and purer source of ice-elemental power surged forth from the palace.
The entrance to the Ice God Palace has opened!
The Scarlet Emperor's movements stopped abruptly.
His gaze was fixed on the palace entrance, his eyes filled with greed.
Compared to killing Li Yunjing, the inheritance of the Ice God is clearly more important.
"Kid, you're lucky." The Scarlet Emperor glanced coldly at Li Yunjing and said, "I'll deal with you after I get the Ice God's inheritance!"
After saying that, the Scarlet Emperor transformed into a streak of red light and rushed into the Ice God Palace.
"Let's go in too!"
Li Yunjing addressed the crowd, then transformed into a streak of white light and followed closely behind, rushing into the Ice God Palace.
