Chapter 997: Spreading

Inside the chaotic and disordered White Jade Capital, Li Huowang, enveloped by dragon energy, craned his neck, looking at the terrifying sky before him, which was being consumed by the Blissful Heaven.

That vast expanse of dim, multi-colored hues, and constantly expanding and contracting blackness, with each expansion and contraction, its edges were growing!

The Blissful Heaven had invaded the White Jade Capital. At this moment, Li Huowang felt his scalp tingle, and a great weight immediately settled in his heart.

Whether through direct confrontation or insidious tactics, the Blissful Heaven had never given up! They were always active!!

"Act! Do something!" Li Huowang suddenly lowered his head, only to find the space below empty; all the secrets that had just leaked out had vanished without a trace.

While he had been stunned by the Blissful Heaven's invasion, Sanqing had apparently fled again!

It turned out he had led him here simply to use him against the Blissful Heaven. Even at this crucial moment, he was still scheming.

"Sanqing, you just wait, you just wait for me!!" Li Huowang swung his arms forcefully, gripping the blood-stained blade in his hand, and charged towards the intensely oppressive sky.

"Nana, help!!"

As Li Huowang roared loudly, Yang Na nodded vigorously, immediately raised the gun in her hand, and fired continuously at the dark clouds overhead.

Gunshots rang out, followed immediately by thunder. A torrential downpour unleashed itself, drenching everyone present to the bone.

It was raining. Rain kept dripping onto Li Huowang, falling into his eyes and mouth, making him feel exceptionally uncomfortable, which blurred his vision, making it hard to clearly see the multi-colored blackness above.

The rain also continuously beat down on the others' umbrellas. The other people from inside the house had come out. They watched the couple struggling in the heavy rain with complex expressions.

Zhao Shuangdian's keyboard sounds continued, as if she was still calculating something. The tapping of her fingers on the keyboard echoed the sound of falling rain.

Just then, a soaking wet Yang Na rushed through the rain, and anxiously asked the others under the umbrellas, "Does anyone have bullets? Please lend me some, I've run out!"

Seeing no one responded, she anxiously repeated herself.

"Hurry! Huowang is fighting the entire Blissful Heaven alone! I have to help him!" Yang Na said, covering her right hand over her eyes, and stared with intense hostility at the large dark clouds overhead, from which heavy rain was falling.

The sound of the keyboard suddenly stopped. Zhao Shuangdian pulled two loaded magazines from behind Ba Shengqing's waist, and without a word, slapped them directly into Yang Na's hand.

Zhao Shuangdian's action caught everyone by surprise. Ba Nanxu, standing nearby, asked in astonishment, "You don't really believe his crazy talk, do you? Don't tell me you've been infected by him too?"

Zhao Shuangdian turned her head to look at the woman smoking nearby, "Why not believe him? At least for now, his model is quite logical. I believe him."

Hearing this, Ba Nanxu looked at Zhao Shuangdian with some surprise.

However, when she confirmed that the other person was not joking, she immediately burst out laughing, pulled out her gun from behind and switched off the safety, firing two shots into the sky. "Alright, if you're willing to die, I'm willing to bury you."

"What do we do next? Should I, as the Destiny of Pain, resume my position? And then use the Heavenly Dao of Pain against the Destiny of Blissful Heaven? Should I torture them to death?"

Zhao Shuangdian slowly shook her head, looking at the formulas on the computer screen. "We can't be led by the nose. They fight their way, we fight ours."

"Furthermore, we can't temporarily affect the so-called White Jade Capital. We'll leave this to Li Huowang. Go bring all the cars over. Since they've come, there must be a coupling point nearby. Once we find that point, we can intervene."

In the torrential rain, three off-road vehicles with their fog lights on drove onto the muddy dirt road. The others quickly folded their umbrellas and got in.

The driver's side window was halfway down. Ba Nanxu, with a cigarette dangling from her lips, shouted to Li Huowang in the heavy rain, "Huazi! Hold on, we'll be in White Jade Capital to help you soon!!"

Li Huowang wiped his face with his sleeve, and shouted loudly, "Hurry! A lot of the White Jade Capital has already been swallowed by them! I don't know if they have any other tricks up their sleeve."

She gestured towards Li Huowang with her chin. As Ba Nanxu stepped on the gas, the car engine roared to life, and they drove off onto the muddy dirt road.

What neither side noticed was that Yi Donglai had emerged at some point. He stood motionless in the heavy rain, his lips tightly pressed together, holding the pocket watch in his hand.

Hearing the engine sounds fade into the distance, Li Huowang's heart eased slightly. Thankfully, he wasn't fighting alone this time.

"Sanqing! Lead the way for them!! If you don't want the White Jade Capital to be destroyed!" Li Huowang didn't care if the vanished Qingwanglai heard him or not. He suddenly raised the blood-stained military saber in his hand, and fiercely plunged it into the black sky.

As he cut forcefully, black liquid sprayed directly out, drenching Li Huowang's entire body and face.

The black liquid, which could activate everything, when it touched the dragon energy on Li Huowang's body, failed to exert any of its power, and simply slid off him.

However, Li Huowang had no time to pay attention to this at the moment. Gripping his military saber, he continuously cut into the blackness above.

After cutting for a while, Li Huowang realized this wouldn't work. It was simply too inefficient, and he was far too small in the face of this endless blackness.

Li Huowang vigorously wiped the water from his face. "This won't do! I must find another way to stop it."

After pondering for a moment, Li Huowang immediately turned and flew to the left. With his "Shrinking the Ground into Inches" technique, his speed steadily increased.

After a few brief minutes, Li Huowang finally reached the chaotic and black edge of the White Jade Capital. At this moment, the blackness of the Blissful Heaven was still visibly infecting its surroundings.

Without delay, Li Huowang raised his military saber, and forcefully cut along the edge, forcibly separating the chaos of the White Jade Capital from this strange blackness.

Since there was no immediate way to deal with the blackness, he would first separate it from the White Jade Capital.

When he saw that, with his cutting, the spread of the dim, multi-colored blackness finally stopped, Li Huowang's heart rejoiced. He knew his method had worked.

Just then, from deep within this black expanse, a sound emerged that involuntarily chilled one's heart, a hissing sound like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.

And that hiss was not constant. A low-frequency chanting began to overlap, and overlapped the hissing, with more and more sounds continuously appearing, ultimately forming an intensely powerful roar that exploded fiercely in Li Huowang's ears.

Just at this moment, Yi Donglai's voice came from the side. "Xiao Li!! It's thundering!! Quickly throw away your saber, you'll easily get struck by lightning like that!!"
