Chapter 2907: Deadly Battle

The red flood dragon pounced forward, opening its gaping maw and spewing forth a torrent of raging flames directly at Bian Xiao and his companions. The flood dragon's physical body was incredibly strong, making it difficult to harm with treasures. Several glowing, heaven-piercing spirit treasures slammed into the red flood dragon, while tens of thousands of thick silver lightning bolts tore through the sky, striking directly at it. The red flood dragon let out a resounding roar, its body erupting in a brilliant red glow before it transformed into a ball of crimson fire and vanished, causing the attacks to miss.

The next moment, a crimson light flared behind the blood-robed youth, revealing a red flood dragon several hundred feet long. Wang Gonghu, having used his Spirit Attachment art to merge with the beast, was naturally not so easy to deal with. As soon as the red flood dragon appeared, it opened its gaping maw and unleashed a torrent of raging flames, engulfing the spectral blood frog. The blood frog phantom let out a series of pained screams, its body writhing ceaselessly. A loud whooshing sound rent the air as a thick, long red dragon tail swept forward, striking the spectral blood frog. The blood frog phantom shattered into pieces as if made of paper. The blood-robed youth coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.

The red flood dragon's claw struck the protective spiritual light around the blood-robed youth with a muffled thud. Simultaneously, a blue rainbow shot forth, heading directly for the youth. Just as Bian Xiao was about to intervene, a loud masculine shout rang out. He frowned, noticing that the other Void Refinement cultivators were also affected. Upon hearing the sound, the blood-robed youth's body trembled slightly, as if his head had been split in two. The blue rainbow pierced through his protective spiritual light. The blood-robed youth raised his arms to block, but his hands were severed by the blue rainbow, bleeding profusely. The blood-robed youth spat out a blood-red shield, which blocked the blue rainbow. A wave of crimson flames descended from the sky, engulfing the blood-robed youth. He let out a shriek of agony as a massive dragon claw slammed onto his head, causing it to explode. No sooner had his soul left his body than it, too, was consumed by the raging flames.

A flash of white light appeared, and a shimmering white net materialized out of thin air, enveloping the red flood dragon. It quickly tightened, simultaneously emitting a vast expanse of white chilling air. The red flood dragon let out a deafening roar, its massive body twisting and tearing violently. It simultaneously unleashed a torrent of raging flames, ripping open a gap in the net. A colossal ice silkworm phantom spewed a beam of white light, striking the red flood dragon. The flood dragon's body quickly froze, transforming into a massive ice sculpture. Dense golden light beams shot forth, causing the ice sculpture to shatter into pieces. A miniature Nascent Soul, its features strikingly similar to Wang Gonghu's, flew out of the wreckage with a panicked expression. The Ice Sealing divine ability of the Ice Silkworm clan was too formidable; even a fifth-rank flood dragon's physical body could not withstand it. No sooner had the miniature Nascent Soul left the body than dense silver lightning bolts struck down. After a single shriek, the miniature Nascent Soul vanished, and Wang Gonghu perished.

Wang Jiye's expression turned grim. Before he could think further, two beams of yellow light shot from the eyes of the marten phantom, heading directly for him. Wang Jiye dared not confront them directly; a sixth-rank puppet beast had been destroyed by this very divine ability. The marten avatar's petrification ability was incredibly potent; otherwise, it would not have been able to hold off Immortal Xuan Yue and others for so many years. He activated his incantation, and the humanoid phantom above his head spewed a stream of crimson flames, blocking the two yellow lights. The sky suddenly darkened, and a mountain-sized silver lightning orb descended, plummeting towards them. The humanoid phantom rubbed its hands together, its body emitting a blinding red light. As the silver lightning orb touched the red light, its descent slowed. The silver lightning orb exploded, its silver light engulfing an area spanning dozens of miles, and shockwaves surged like tides.

Just as Bian Xiao was about to activate his avatar to kill Wang Jiye, a loud sword hum resounded. Dense blue sword light flew out from the silver lightning, heading directly for Bian Xiao and his companions. Bian Xiao lightly tapped his finger, and the spiritual light around the green shield in front of him intensified. The dense blue sword lights struck the green shield one after another, emitting muffled thuds. Over a dozen new cracks appeared on the shield. A colossal, hazy blue sword descended from the sky, cleaving towards the lizard phantom. As the lizard phantom was about to resist, a masculine shout rang out, causing the lizard phantom to waver slightly. Seizing this opportune moment, the colossal sword struck down, cutting the lizard phantom in two. Bian Xiao spat out a mouthful of vital essence blood, and his green shield flew forward to meet the attack. The colossal sword cleaved down, shattering the green shield. Bian Xiao was cut in half, his body transforming into a withered arm.

A spiritual light flickered in the void a hundred miles away, revealing Bian Xiao's figure. His eyes were filled with apprehension; the Wang family's Void Refinement cultivators were not to be underestimated. At this point, the lightning dissipated, revealing Wang Jiye lying in a smoking crater, his aura weak and his face pale.

"Retreat quickly! I'll cover you!" Wang Lihe urged. The Soul Transformation cultivators had already fled, allowing them to retreat. Wang Yi'er had not been in the Void Refinement stage for long, and Wang Jiye was injured, so Wang Lihe decided to stay and cover their retreat. After speaking, Wang Lihe activated his incantation. The colossal sword's light intensified, splitting into tens of thousands of blue sword lights that flew directly at Bian Xiao and his companions. The woman in the purple dress activated her incantation, and the praying mantis phantom above her head crossed its forelimbs and swung them forward. Dense silver lightning bolts tore through the sky, blocking the blue sword lights. Seizing this opportunity, Wang Yi'er and Wang Jiye transformed into two streaks of light and fled through the air.

Bian Xiao and the others naturally refused to let them go, preparing to block them. At that moment, a loud masculine shout rang out: "Man and Sword as One." Wang Lihe merged with the colossal sword, heading directly for Bian Xiao. He had used this divine ability, indicating he was fighting to the death. Bian Xiao paled in shock. Just as he was about to cast a spell to resist, a masculine shout emanated from within the colossal sword. Bian Xiao's reaction faltered, and the colossal sword reached him, cutting him in half. His soul did not even have time to escape. A rumbling thunder echoed as tens of thousands of silver lightning bolts struck down. The colossal sword's light intensified, releasing tens of thousands of blue sword lights that blocked the incoming silver lightning, and shockwaves surged. The blue colossal sword transformed into a blue rainbow, heading directly for the two Void Refinement cultivators. Before they could react, another masculine shout rang out – the Soul Suppressing Roar. Two screams rang out. The two early-stage Void Refinement cultivators, along with their protective treasures, were shattered by the blue rainbow, their souls obliterated.

An irresistible gravitational force emanated from the ground, slowing the blue rainbow. It revealed itself as a hazy blue colossal sword. A mountain-sized silver lightning orb descended, smashing towards the blue colossal sword. A wave of fierce blue sword energy swept out, shattering the silver lightning orb. Blinding silver lightning engulfed an area spanning dozens of miles. The giant silkworm phantom spewed a beam of white light, which merged into the silver lightning. Dense silver lightning struck down, with continuous roars and surging shockwaves. After a while, four dim blue flying swords fell from the lightning and landed on the ground. As the lightning dissipated, Wang Lihe was gone, having perished. In his dying struggle, he unleashed his Sword Control Art and Soul Suppressing Roar, eliminating three Void Refinement cultivators. Wang Gonghu had also eliminated one Void Refinement cultivator.

"Lady Luo, should we pursue them?" A Void Refinement cultivator asked, his eyes filled with apprehension, clearly intimidated by Wang Lihe.

"We have completed our mission. Let's rendezvous with Senior Gu and the others at the Tianniu Mountain Range!" The woman in the purple dress dared not pursue Wang Jiye. She had no desire to suffer Bian Xiao's fate.
