Supreme Dragon Lord

Chapter 479: There are still issues unresolved!

In the next second, the three of them unleashed powerful attacks, shooting straight toward the giant sword.

HUM!

Perhaps sensing the oncoming forces, the giant sword began to tremble even more violently. A torrent of crimson light instantly poured out from within it. In an instant, a Sharp Sword made of crimson light condensed into being.

Then, the crimson Sharp Sword swept out fiercely. A wave of Sword Qi, seemingly powerful enough to rip through space itself, rolled directly toward He Luo, Xue Wuying, and Xu Huanhuan.

BANG!

As the Sword Qi collided violently with their attacks, terrifying ripples of energy swept outward. The entire space began to tremble as if it were about to collapse. During the brief standoff, the attacks from both sides were disintegrated.

Xu Huanhuan, He Luo, and Xue Wuying were all stunned. They hadn’t expected that their combined attack would be blocked by a single wave of Sword Qi. As expected of the Domain Alliance’s Grand Competition. The difficulty here far exceeded their individual strengths!

Meanwhile, the giant sword once again began to tremble violently. Countless streams of crimson light converged, erupting into another overwhelming wave of Sword Qi.

Witnessing this, Xu Huanhuan, He Luo, and Xue Wuying quickly came to their senses. They rapidly circulated the Battle qi within their bodies, forming a Defensive Barrier in front of them.

BANG!

This wave of Sword Qi crashed down. Xu Huanhuan, He Luo, and Xue Wuying trembled, grave expressions forming on their faces. They never would have imagined that the power contained in this strike would be even stronger than the previous one!

Long Chen, however, was hidden behind them. He was only affected by some of the residual Sword Qi, which was of no great consequence to him.

"This isn’t a viable solution," Xu Huanhuan said, her delicate brows furrowing as she spoke in a grave tone.

He Luo also frowned, then made a decision. His palm spread open, revealing a Talisman Flag. He began forming seals with both hands while murmuring an incantation. The Talisman Flag in his palm rapidly enlarged at a visible pace. When it reached over a meter in height, it rapidly split into several copies that encircled the three of them.

"Augment!"

He Luo uttered a low shout, and a continuous stream of Battle qi surged out from the Talisman Flags, flowing into their bodies. In an instant, the Battle qi within them grew rapidly, and their power swelled immensely.

The very next moment, they once again unleashed powerful attacks, finally managing to shatter the crimson Sharp Sword charging at them.

Afterward, the three of them fixed their gazes on the giant sword. Forming seals with their fingers, powerful forces burst forth from their bodies. All three streams of power were absorbed by the Talisman Flags. Under their influence, the three powerful torrents of energy fused into one and were doubled in strength.

The surrounding space filled with an oppressive pressure, instantly beginning to distort. Even Long Chen, standing within this space, had to circulate the Combat power in his body to form a Defensive Barrier to withstand it.

"Go!"

With He Luo’s shout, the mighty force blasted forth from the Talisman Flags, crashing directly into the giant sword.

BANG!

A deafening sound erupted. The giant sword, which had been holding its ground, ultimately could not withstand the attack. A crack appeared on its surface and slowly began to spread. In the blink of an eye, the entire sword was covered in a dense web of cracks. Finally, with a dull thud, the giant sword shattered into countless fragments that scattered across the ground.

At the same moment, the long spears and sharp swords that had been relentlessly attacking everyone lost their control. Their crimson glow faded, and they all clattered to the ground.

Calm returned to the area.

Seeing this, He Luo and the others let out a slight sigh of relief.

"I didn’t expect your Talisman Flag to be so powerful and have such an effect. It’s truly surprising," Xue Wuying said, looking at the flags before them.

He Luo chuckled, put the Talisman Flags away, and said lightly, "Not at all, you flatter me." He hurriedly changed the subject, smiling at Xue Wuying. "My Talisman Flag is merely a minor trick. Compared to Young Master Xu’s Spirit Snake, it pales in comparison."

Hearing He Luo say this, Xu Huanhuan quickly added, "Both of us have revealed our Magical Treasures, leaving only Young Master Xue. Perhaps Young Master Xue’s methods far exceed our own."

"That makes sense." He Luo nodded in agreement, then also turned to Xue Wuying. "We truly haven’t seen you in action. I wonder what kind of astonishing methods Young Master Xue has been hiding."

Upon hearing this, Xue Wuying just smiled faintly and said nothing.

Everyone present showed expressions of respect, awed by the strength the three had displayed.

Just then, a spatial passage appeared above where the giant sword had been. At this sight, everyone’s eyes lit up.

"Fantastic!"

"This is the teleportation passage to the Second Layer!"

"We’ve successfully passed the First Layer!"

The crowd buzzed with discussion, their faces alight with excitement. He Luo, Xu Huanhuan, and Xue Wuying were the first to leap into the spatial passage. Seeing this, the others didn’t hesitate, heading straight for the portal as well.

"Let’s go in too," Lei Shishi said, turning back to Long Chen and the others after seeing everyone else enter.

But Long Chen shook his head and told her, "Wait a moment. I have some personal matters to settle first."

Hearing his words, Lei Shishi gave him a puzzled look, not understanding what he meant. However, she soon understood. Following his gaze, she noticed that the disciples of Xuanyue Valley, the Divine Blade Sect, the Heavenly Water Sect, and Feiyu City were all gathered behind them.

Lei Shishi already knew about some of the troubles Long Chen had faced in the past. She knew perfectly well that these sects had once hunted him down. Now that Long Chen had run into them again, he certainly wasn’t going to let them off so easily.

"Your business is our business," Lei Shishi stated directly. "If you’re going to deal with them, I’ll stand with you to the end!"

Long Chen gave a faint smile and nodded slightly at Lei Shishi to express his gratitude.

Meanwhile, the disciples from the Four Great Sects—Xuanyue Valley, the Divine Blade Sect, the Heavenly Water Sect, and Feiyu City—were in no hurry to enter the spatial passage, staring intently at Long Chen. They were calculating when to make their move. To their surprise, Long Chen was also looking right back at them.

Instantly, all eyes converged on Long Chen. The disciples of the Four Great Sects glared at him, their faces grim and their eyes filled with intense killing intent.
