TL: GoldenLung
One had to admit, his counterattack was perfectly tid. Almost instantly, the five-colored light was upon Lan Xuanyu. And indeed, Lan Xuanyu could not dodge. The side effects of the Annihilation Shock still lingered within his body.
But Lan Xuanyu had his own solutions. His body shrank abruptly, his massive thirty-ter form reverting to human size. Simultaneously, he fell backward, slamming onto the ground with a thud. The five-colored light passed harmlessly over him.
Though it looked sowhat undignified, this maneuver allowed him to evade his opponent's counterattack without using any of his own abilities.
But just then, sothing strange happened. Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt everything around him beco illusory. A dazzling, multicolored light enveloped his surroundings, as if he had entered a bizarre, colorful world.
Not far before him, figures began to materialize, figures that looked exactly like his comrades. The ground beneath his feet was also changing.
What was this? The Eternal Sky City?
The ground was ford from thick tree branches. Not far away stood a towering tree-mountain. A dense aura of life rushed toward him.
A golden figure descended from the sky. It was his father, Tang Wulin, the Golden Dragon Moon Song.
"Xuanyu, you're back." Tang Wulin smiled.
"Your mother has already woken up," Tang Wulin added.
Lan Xuanyu did not speak. Watching the golden figure approaching him step by step, his gaze suddenly sharpened. Two purple lights coalesced in his pupils. The next mont, everything around him seed to slow down.
His dragon lance thrust forward instantly, carrying an unstoppable montum. Thousands of golden rays blood as he stabbed toward the shadow before him.
The surrounding colored light burst like a bubble, revealing Hu Hongyu's astonished face.
With a crisp clang, the two dragon lances collided. The imnse force sent Hu Hongyu flying backward.
"How is that possible? How could you break my illusion so quickly?" Hu Hongyu blurted out.
The Five-Colored Illusion, a srising light display. It could evoke the deepest mories within an opponent, making them subconsciously see what they wanted to see. And he would transform within those mories, delivering a fatal blow.
This was a powerful ability combining Hu Hongyu's spiritual domain with his dragon force. It had almost never failed. He had not even used it against Xu Yanmo earlier, saving it for a critical mont.
If he had not been so thoroughly suppressed by Lan Xuanyu, he would not have used this ability lightly. But desperate to win this match, he no longer cared. He unleashed the Five-Colored Illusion to create an opportunity for victory, never expecting Lan Xuanyu to break it instantly.
The reason Lan Xuanyu could shatter Hu Hongyu's spiritual illusion, besides possessing the Purple Demon Eye, was that he harbored within him an existence most adept at casting illusions: the Treasure Seeking Beast. That creature was practically the ancestor of illusions. The mont the surrounding light and shadow shifted, it had already warned Lan Xuanyu that it was an illusion. How could Lan Xuanyu be fooled? He launched his attack imdiately.
The two combatants reestablished their distance, both returning to human form. In this match, the "Golden Dragon Princess" was finally fighting much longer.
Judging by the current situation, Lan Xuanyu clearly held the upper hand, but Hu Hongyu had not been without opportunities to counterattack.
Lan Xuanyu stared intently at his opponent, his dragon lance angled toward the ground. His personal aura began to surge. Beneath his feet, the Golden Dragon Berserker Domain blood once more.
Hu Hongyu gripped his dragon lance with his left hand, his right arm hanging limply at his side, a fierce light gleaming in his eyes. He watched Lan Xuanyu move slowly, seemingly searching for an opening.
"Roooar—" An impassioned dragon roar erupted from both of them simultaneously. The next instant, they charged at each other with blinding speed.
The air exploded with a terrifying boom, and within it, a golden dragon's figure blood. Lan Xuanyu's eyes turned completely golden in that instant.
Five-colored light burst forth as well. At that mont, Hu Hongyu's dragon lance had turned completely multicolored, as if he were wagering everything on a single thrust, lunging straight for Lan Xuanyu's chest.
"Clang—" The dragon lances collided. But this ti, Lan Xuanyu could not send his opponent flying. Instead, Hu Hongyu's five-colored lance stuck to his. Hu Hongyu's body swung upward. Yet in that instant, the five-colored light gushed forth like a waterfall, converging on his right arm, which had previously seed limp at his side.
He yanked his lance with his left hand, then instantly released it. His body crashed directly into Lan Xuanyu's chest.
His right hand, now completely five-colored, ford a fist and punched straight at Lan Xuanyu's chest.
Hu Hongyu had put all his remaining strength into this move, without a mont's hesitation or doubt. He knew that Lan Xuanyu's shock ability was currently unusable. But it would likely recover soon. If Lan Xuanyu used it again, Hu Hongyu would not be able to withstand another strike.
Earlier, he had let his right hand hang limp to deceive Lan Xuanyu. Though he had been significantly injured, the protection of the five-colored light elent ant it was not as severe as it appeared. His greatest consumption had been his dragon force. After all, he too practiced Dragon Force Tempering and had reached a deep level, having completed the first tempering and entering the marrow-refining stage.
This strike would worsen his injuries, but it was his chance for victory. Using his lance to stick to Lan Xuanyu's, using the five-elent force to neutralize Lan Xuanyu's five-elent power, he pressed his body forward, throwing this punch like a suicide strike in a desperate bid to win.
The truly terrifying aspect of his light-elent five-elent power was not its offensive capability, but its control. If he could control his opponent at close range, he could seal their dragon force and do as he pleased. This was how he had ruined countless opponents.
Powerful and cunning as a fox. That was Hu Hongyu.
This ti, Lan Xuanyu indeed seed to have no way to dodge. He raised his left arm, but not to block his opponent's attack. He ford a fist and punched directly at Hu Hongyu's chest.
Strike where the enemy must defend. This was a mutually destructive fighting style.
Seeing this, Huang Daoqi, seated atop the Dragon Force Pillar in the distance, sprang to his feet.
Mutual destruction would not do! Regardless of whether this round could be won, what about the battles to co after mutual destruction?
But this was the battlefield. Until a clear victor erged, even the referee could not interfere. Everyone could only watch, helplessly witnessing what happened next.
Hu Hongyu was a ruthless character himself. At this mont, he would naturally not abandon the hard-won opportunity. Without any thought of pulling back, his fist slamd into Lan Xuanyu's shoulder, while Lan Xuanyu's fist struck his chest.
It was not that Hu Hongyu did not want to punch Lan Xuanyu's chest. But rember, Lan Xuanyu was now "Lan." As an exceptionally rare great beauty among the dragon race, if Hu Hongyu dared to strike an inappropriate place, he would surely beco the enemy of all dragonkind. Moreover, at their level, hitting an opponent's torso, whether shoulder or chest, did not make much difference.
"Thud—" The two impact sounds rged into one as they simultaneously struck each other's bodies. Both figures flew backward.
"Boom—" A second explosion suddenly rang out, detonating on Hu Hongyu's body. For so reason, the Divine Dragon Armor on his upper body suddenly burst apart into nurous fragnts. He himself let out a miserable cry, spraying blood, and crashed heavily onto the ground in the distance, vomiting large mouthfuls of blood.
