Protagonist:

Yu Changsheng

"Cough cough!"

The sealing dust dispersed, revealing the captive's wretched body within; his gaze was blood-red amidst his disheveled hair, and bloodstains spread across his whole body.

Under one punch, he unexpectedly gained no advantage whatsoever; instead, he himself was shaken back and sent flying. This result made him find it hard to believe, and his heart grew even more crazed.

Thus, amid a low roar, a layer of golden brilliant radiance covered his entire body, ultimately forming a cloak of honor; his fists struck out one after another in rapid succession, each punch erupting with greater power than the last, smashing toward Yu Changsheng. The sky and earth were filled with golden fist shadows, covering the void and annihilating everything.

"Supreme, Ba Huang Fist!"

The void trembled, laws surged forth; faintly visible behind Fu Lu, the visage of an emperor clad in yellow robes, of imposing stature, suddenly manifested. The overbearing intent made one tremble with dread at the mere sight. With a press of his arm, fist shadows poured down like raindrops, dense and packed; each punch's erupting power was comparable to a spell divine ability.

An ordinary Golden Core cultivator under this punch would likely be unable to endure and would explode backward, but Yu Changsheng's eyes flashed with light, his combat intent soaring. He did not retreat but advanced, shouting loudly: "Well met!"

His voice rolled like thunder; his whole body's qi and blood surged in this moment. His body suddenly swelled; a fleshly body dharma image appeared behind him, reaching a continuous height of a hundred meters. A punch smashed down; intense golden light transformed into a cloak of earth and stone, blasting open layer upon layer of hard mountain rock, transforming into armor covering his whole body. His fleshly power reached its peak in this instant! "Divine Light Shatters Body Pierces Heaven Art!"

"Thousand Shan Luan Art!"

Two body-refining divine abilities were both brought to their utmost perfection in this moment, empowering Yu Changsheng's fleshly body, drawing down boundless power. Earth flowers protected his body. Yu Changsheng's arm suddenly swelled a circle; upon it, veins pulsed like coiling dragons densely spread. Amidst the ceaseless pulsing, the shadows of a thousand layered mountains emerged behind Yu Changsheng. Within the mountains, a morning sun leaped into the sky. Dawn scattered boundless morning light.

"Morning Sun Breaking Dawn Fist!"

Boom—!!!

The two collided; in the flash of a spark, terrifying residual waves rippled through the void. Fu Lu let out a muffled grunt; the corner of his mouth turned sweet, his body suddenly went limp with a shake, a trace of fresh blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. Feeling the sharp sensation at his fist, he couldn't help but retreat two steps. Even with a ferocious complexion, he roared in anger; his fist struck out like a startled swan, smashing down fiercely! The Ba Huang shadow behind Fu Lu bent its waist; the mountain shadow behind Yu Changsheng collapsed. The rumbling sound resounded through the clouds. Fists collided, sweeping into a storm. Amidst a hazy expanse, only faintly, vaguely, could one see Fu Lu's figure retreating step by step!

"Isn't this guy a Beast Tamer? How was this fleshly body cultivated? How could it be so powerful?"

In the flash of a spark, the two had already clashed and exchanged moves for several hundred rounds. Compared to Fu Lu's bitterness, Yu Changsheng's side was a soaring momentum, growing more courageous the more he fought. The pressure he brought to Fu Lu likewise increased greatly.

This was still the first time in the fleshly body aspect that he had been so crushed by a peer, beaten until he had no power to fight back. For a moment, shocked in his heart, killing intent surged toward Yu Changsheng's side.

On the other side, Ji Chiyan was also faring poorly. His complexion was slightly ugly. Waving his sleeve, flame divine abilities unfolded one after another, their power peerless, yet they were never able to inflict true injury on Chi Lian and the Xuan Turtle.

"Damn it, these two tamed beasts are clearly only at the mid Third Rank, how could they be so troublesome?"

Ji Chiyan gritted his teeth; amid the surging fire sea, fire abyss dragons formed one after another and poured out from their nest, slowly burning toward Chi Lian and the Xuan Turtle.

The Xuan Turtle let out a low cry; Chi Lian the dragon roared. As wind and clouds changed, the volcano stone forest suddenly opened. Sky-covering flames swept the surroundings. The prosperous Huan Hai covered the space. Violent energy was erased in the battle, submerging the three's bodies and then letting them surface again.

At this moment, Yu Changsheng's figure was like an immortal or a demon. His fleshly body erupted with boundless great light. Every punch, every kick, every claw contained immense great power. Divine abilities came at his fingertips; every single one struck heavily upon Fu Lu's mind and spirit, leaving him astonished and retreating continuously, struggling to defend.

"The agreement was heavily injured and near death. Damn false intelligence misled me!"

"This guy has been deliberately luring us out all along! In order to exterminate us!"

Fu Lu and Ji Chiyan gritted their teeth and roared, their gazes heavy. Their hearts beat a retreat, but the surrounding void had long been sealed by Yu Changsheng. Both their movements were restricted, their speeds greatly slowed; naturally they could not escape.

"We can't go on like this. You and I go all out, fight with everything we have. If not, I'm afraid we'll have to account for ourselves here."

Ji Chiyan panted violently. After shaking off Chi Lian with a palm, he turned his head to look at Fu Lu and spoke.

"Fine. No matter how defiant Yu Changsheng is, he ultimately has only two fists against four legs. However, I also ask Brother Ji not to continue holding back."

Fu Lu likewise panted heavily, nodded, feeling the qi and blood in his body being continuously consumed. He felt somewhat stifled in his heart. His gaze stared at Ji Chiyan; a trace of gloomy light flashed through.

Ji Chiyan stared blankly for a moment, then his complexion sank slightly. He silently nodded and said: "Since it is so, I ask Brother Fu to act as Protector and block for a while, let me prepare. Next I will unleash my Chi Huo Sect's supreme divine ability, to exterminate this enemy in one strike."

"Then hurry up!"

Fu Lu gritted his teeth, narrowed his eyes, and finished speaking. After exhaling a long breath, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. His already swollen body suddenly grew taller again, turning into an existence like a small giant. The Ba Huang shadow behind him, in this moment, completely fused into Ji Chiyan's body — wait, into Fu Lu's body — transforming into a layer of faint golden armor, covering Fu Lu within.

"Hum hum hum!!"

The golden armor trembled, revealing Fu Lu's blood-red eyes within, stained with a touch of crazed color. Even more, boundless greatness flowed ceaselessly within his body. The Ba Huang intent was manifested on Fu Lu in an exceptionally obvious way at this moment! "Ba Huang Armor! Ba Wang Fist!"

Fu Lu's body swayed; the next moment, he suddenly blocked in front of Yu Changsheng. Without the slightest hesitation, a punch smashed out. One punch fell, carrying overbearing and annihilating intent. Even Yu Changsheng's complexion condensed for a moment; he likewise smashed out a punch! Boom!

Fist light brilliant, fist might world-destroying. The two collided. The next moment Fu Lu let out a muffled grunt, his steps retreating three. Yu Changsheng's body shook violently; his arm trembled slightly. A trace of fresh blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"What a powerful fleshly body secret art. So this is your trump card." Yu Changsheng frowned, then smiled slightly, shook his slightly numb arm, and spoke lightly.

Fu Lu let out a cold hum. His body erupted with boundless phantoms. He did not waste words, continuing to kill toward Yu Changsheng, dragging Chi Lian and the Xuan Turtle into the delay as well.

"I'll play with you a bit! The secret art is not bad, but how long can you endure?" Yu Changsheng let out a low roar, suddenly raised his head. His whole body's qi and blood seemed to ignite. Fearless, he met Fu Lu head-on in a direct collision.

After Fu Lu unleashed the secret art, his fleshly power had, in some respects, already exceeded Yu Changsheng's. Especially his defensive power, under the augmentation of that golden armor, reached a degree that could be called terrifying. To the extent that even facing Yu Changsheng and his two great tamed beasts alone, he could handle it in an orderly manner, even with ease.

For a time, they actually fought to a hard-to-resolve, hard-to-separate standstill. But the peril within, only Fu Lu himself knew clearly.

Thus, when shaking off Yu Changsheng, Fu Lu sensed the state within his body. His complexion revealed a trace of ugliness. He twisted his head to look at Ji Chiyan meditating and brewing behind him, and roared gloomily: "You guy, still not ready? I can barely hold on much longer!"

The Ba Huang Sect's fleshly body secret art naturally brought him an astonishing amplification. But its cost required him to ceaselessly burn his qi and blood power. In a short time there was no problem, but if time dragged on, not to mention qi and blood exhaustion leading to coma, it could even shake his life origin. Therefore, unless necessary, Fu Lu was unwilling to unleash it.

From this one could also see the pressure Yu Changsheng brought to Fu Lu.

"If you deliberately delay further, I'll let them pass! At that time, don't blame a certain Fu for not speaking of favors!"

Fu Lu roared in anger, anger surfacing on his face. At this moment, Ji Chiyan behind him suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze revealed a trace of strange color. His hands continuously changed seals. He suddenly struck his chest. A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed into the void. His complexion also suddenly turned pale. Then he pointed fiercely at the sky! "Fire Falls Heaven Meteor!"

In an instant, the surrounding space all shook, as if a mirror surface had shattered. Crack after crack spread through the void, dense and numerous, like a spider web, layer upon layer covering the surroundings. Within the cracks, dark red firelight leaked out, flowing in a very strange way, emitting gloomy light. Astonishing high temperature blew through the cracks. The air twisted. Heat waves surged. It was as if stream after stream of magma surrounded the area on all sides.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Heat waves turned into a hot tide. A scorching sensation followed. Terrifying high temperature scorched human skin. Space began to tear. Dark red flames flickered unsteadily. A sense of shattering pressure, like the sky collapsing and falling, descended. Flames shook. Whimpering sounds lingered, like the heavens weeping!

Finally, everything, with Yu Changsheng as the center, violently erupted! Terrifying might, in this moment, violently submerged Yu Changsheng within.

Sensing the surrounding might, the scorching sensation penetrating every pore of his body, Yu Changsheng's complexion showed gravity for the first time. Chi Lian and the Xuan Turtle also roared somewhat restlessly.

"Fire Falls Heaven Meteor is my Chi Huo Sect's supreme divine ability. Not only are its cultivation conditions harsh, but unleashing it also easily causes backlash injuring oneself... However, its power absolutely far surpasses other spell techniques!"

"There was once a Chi Huo Sect senior who, with this method, relying on Golden Core Peak cultivation, single-handedly heavily injured a Zi Fu True Lord! And although I cannot reach that extent, Yu Changsheng is also not a Zi Fu True Lord. This strike, he will either die or be crippled!"

Ji Chiyan's face was pale, but his eyes flashed with excited light. He explained to Fu Lu with a cold laugh, looking as if victory was in hand.

"Is that so?"

Fu Lu glanced at Ji Chiyan. After exhaling a breath, a trace of wariness flashed in his eyes. He spoke lightly: "Since there is such a method, why not unleash it from the start? Why wait until Fu and Yu Changsheng have fought to exhaustion before arriving so leisurely late?"

Ji Chiyan chuckled at those words, waving his hand with a smile. "Brother Fu, you worry too much. Since it's a Killer Move, how could it be deployed so easily? Besides, although this divine ability is mighty, its preparation time is too long—you know that."

Ji Chiyan paused, raising an eyebrow slightly as he spoke: "Furthermore, once this divine ability is unleashed, it is also a burden on me, plunging me into a state of Weakness. If I unleash it too early, wouldn't you be eyeing me like a tiger watching its prey?"

Ji Chiyan's words were very blunt, landing in Fu Lu's ears, causing his expression to change. Though somewhat displeased, he merely turned his head away with a muffled hum, not bothering to argue further.

"Just wait. Under such a divine ability, combined with your constant draining of him, I don't believe this Yu Zhangsheng can truly remain Invincible."

Seeing this, Ji Chiyan's eyes flashed with a fleeting glint. After a light smile, he looked at Yu Zhangsheng enveloped within the Huo Luo Tian Yin and snapped his fingers.

"Crack..."

The finger snap was crisp. In an instant, the Huo Luo Tian Yin turned Violent, space began to Shatter, and the fire of lava transformed into countless chains, like agile, twisting Spirit Snakes. Wherever they passed, the Air was scorched, the Void collapsed, and with unstoppable might, they roared as they tightly coiled toward Yu Zhangsheng.

"Purgatory of Evil Fire!"

"Water Country, Numberless Tribulation!"

The fire dragon roared, the marsh endured forever. Chi Lian's Purgatory Dragon and the Black Tortoise simultaneously illuminated the Sky. Amidst the roars, golden evil fire spread across the Sky, and the azure sea swept across the eight directions. Within this Huo Luo Tian Yin, they suddenly erupted! Boom—!

"Roar roar roar!!"

Chi Lian's Purgatory Dragon cried out in grief, the Black Tortoise's body Trembled, and its divine ability Collapsed. Meanwhile, the fire snake chains transformed from the Huo Luo Tian Yin, though mostly Collapsed just before, once again gathered into countless flame spears, fiercely tearing through space toward the two Spirit Beasts!

"Howl howl howl..."

Heat Waves surged, the Void twisted, space Shattered, heavenly fire fell. Chi Lian's Purgatory Dragon's Dragon Might surged endlessly, and in its crimson eyes, a trace of Pure white suddenly appeared. A streak of white light flashed around its body, and in an instant, this white light swept outward with Chi Lian's Purgatory Dragon at its center!

"Spirit Dragon Divine Domain!"

Amidst a hazy expanse, one could faintly see a massive Spirit Dragon phantom, radiating Numberless might, covering the Tian Qiong, and showering down countless white lights!

In an instant, all Huo Luo Tian Yin paused, and the momentum of the flame spears tearing through space also Stagnated! Furthermore, an invisible pressure spread out, enveloping both Ji Chiyan and Fu Lu outside. Both instantly changed expression, their eyes becoming dazed, as if an invisible great hammer had fiercely struck their hearts and souls!

"This Dragon Might... so terrifying, what's going on?"

After a moment, Ji Chiyan recovered, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked with shock at the space sealed by the Huo Luo Tian Yin, feeling faintly uneasy in his heart.

Spirit Dragon Divine Domain, as the innate domain divine ability of a Fifth Stage Peak Spirit Dragon, has a very simple effect: it greatly enhances all of its own divine ability might and Dragon Might, and shocks enemies. Within the Spirit Dragon Divine Domain, Chi Lian's Purgatory Dragon's recovery power, defense, speed, and divine ability might will all be greatly enhanced, and to a certain extent, it will Weaken the enemy.
