Chapter 1127: Chapter 1126: Black Dragon Banner
Bang!
An astonishing explosion echoed in this mid-air, as the dark finger force and the Azure Dragon Fist simultaneously hit the Golden City. In that fleeting moment, the Golden City was blasted apart.
"Humph, futile resistance."
Gazing at this scene of shocking explosion, the gray-robed elder sneered. This time, he and Capture God learned from their past mistakes, sparing no effort and unleashing deadly blows, intending to kill Ling Chen right from the outset.
Ling Chen managed to escape from them last time because they were too careless, failing to use their full power, which allowed Ling Chen to exploit their oversight. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived.
"Ling Chen!"
Witnessing the explosion in Ling Chen’s location, Elder Xunlong suddenly roared in fury. Ling Chen is Shen Bingxin’s direct disciple, gifted and highly ranked on Lingyue Island. Now that he has died here, how could Elder Xunlong explain this to Shen Bingxin?
How to explain this to the Sect?
"Huangfu Clan, you’re finished!"
Fire almost spouted from Elder Xunlong’s eyes. "Ling Chen is Elder Shen Bingxin’s direct disciple. You’ve killed him. Very well, now prepare to face Elder Shen Bingxin’s wrath!"
"Shen Bingxin?"
Upon hearing Shen Bingxin’s name, the Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan’s eyes slightly twitched. This name he had heard before. Shen Bingxin is a very powerful elder on Lingyue Island; it’s rumored her cultivation has reached the terrifying Five-fold Saint Realm, making her one of the most formidable individuals on Lingyue Island.
This Ling Chen’s master is actually that woman Shen Bingxin?
This indeed poses some trouble, but they had long prepared for the worst and wouldn’t abandon killing Ling Chen just because of this.
In mid-air, the air energy dissipated, and a figure emerged from the explosion zone.
"Not dead?"
The smile froze on the gray-robed elder’s face, as Ling Chen’s figure slowly emerged, entirely unscathed.
"How is this possible?"
Even Capture God was shocked. With Ling Chen’s strength, how could he withstand the simultaneous attacks of two Saints?
"Why are you standing there? Continue the attack!"
The Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan also wore a deep frown. He raised his palm, and an extremely powerful palm force surged forth, looking like he intended to personally attack Ling Chen.
The gray-robed elder and Capture God snapped out of their daze. They immediately stopped hesitating and continued to instigate True Qi, releasing an astonishing aura.
But at this moment, Elder Xunlong and Lin Wan flashed to Ling Chen’s side, guarding his left and right respectively.
"Humph! Do you think numbers will help?"
The Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan sneered. His cultivation nearly reached the pinnacle of the Saint Realm Second Layer. When he activated True Qi, the commotion was incomparable to the gray-robed elder and Capture God’s. Azure light surged on his right arm, then he fiercely punched, using the same boxing technique as the gray-robed elder before, launching it out.
As the fist strength burst forth, the surrounding world darkened, turning into night. A blue dragon manifested from the night, instantly breaking through thousands of meters, arriving before the three.
Lin Wan and Elder Xunlong’s expressions changed, caught off guard. But only Ling Chen was prepared; as the Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan activated his force, he had already gathered True Qi on his right arm. The sanctified right arm glowed golden, with visible blood vessels emitting a sacred aura.
Swoosh!
A sword swipe, the red glow on the Red Sky Sword reached its peak, a flaming phoenix soared into the sky, confronting the blue dragon from the night.
Bang!
As the dragon and phoenix clashed, they tangled madly, with intense flames and icy fist strength pouring out. Even as the Phoenix Sword Light pierced with numerous holes, the Azure Dragon Fist penetrated the Sword Light, blasting towards the trio’s location.
Almost simultaneously, Ling Chen, Lin Wan, and Elder Xunlong joined forces to form a True Qi Protection barrier, which the weakened Azure Dragon Fist struck with a roar, but couldn’t break through.
Yet that wild impact still forcibly pushed Ling Chen and the others back, over a hundred meters away.
"Hmm? They actually blocked it?"
The Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan’s pupils contracted, finding it unbelievable. In his eyes, with not just Ling Chen but even three first realm Saints, they’d fall and be heavily injured by his punch.
Yet now, under Ling Chen’s defense, it was entirely deflected.
"Elder, this one is not to be underestimated; his strength has greatly improved from when we last pursued him!"
The gray-robed elder’s eyes flickered, unwilling to admit it, but it’s true that Ling Chen has become much stronger!
"Indeed, this one is a grave threat."
The Grand Elder nodded. Initially disbelieving that a junior like Ling Chen posed a major threat, he thought that with his help the task of killing Ling Chen was certain to succeed without suspense. But now, he’s no longer so sure.
If this youth continues growing, not only they but the entire Huangfu Clan could be overturned and uprooted by him.
"Lend me your True Qi."
The Grand Elder of the Huangfu Clan’s face became extremely serious, as he flipped his palm to reveal a black flag, depicting a ferocious black dragon, emitting an overbearing aura.
"The Black Dragon Banner, the Elder actually brought this item too."
Seeing this black flag, an unexpected joy appeared on the gray-robed elder’s face. This Black Dragon Banner is a clan protective sacred item of the Huangfu Clan. Though it’s only a lower-grade sacred item, it synergizes with their cultivation technique to produce vast power.
With the Grand Elder’s power to wield this Black Dragon Banner, its power is unimaginable.
Yet using this Black Dragon Banner requires tremendous True Qi, even with Saint Realm Second Layer strength, sustaining its moves is difficult.
Exchanging a glance with Capture God, the gray-robed elder and he simultaneously acted, infusing abundant True Qi into the Black Dragon Banner.
Under this vast True Qi infusion, the Black Dragon Banner suddenly gleamed, as if the black dragon on it came to life, vivid and lifelike, roaming on the banner.
An extremely fierce aura rapidly spread from the flag.
