Chapter 725: Fusion of Power

But the mysterious enemy seemed tireless, launching attack after attack. Madness flickered in its eyes, as if it would not rest until Li An was utterly annihilated.

Li An's heart tightened; he knew this could not continue. He had to find the enemy's flaw and defeat it in one strike. He fixed his gaze tightly on the mysterious enemy, missing not a single subtle movement.

Finally, in one clash, Li An spotted the enemy's weakness. Though its attacks were fierce, its defense showed 15 signs of laxity. Seizing the chance, Li An suddenly exerted force and punched the enemy's abdomen.

The punch exploded like thunder, sending the mysterious enemy flying backward. In its eyes flashed disbelief, as if it could not believe it had been defeated by Li An.

Li An gave it no chance to catch its breath; his figure flashed, appearing behind the mysterious enemy like a phantom. He clenched both hands into fists, gathering all his strength, and struck toward the enemy's back.

"Break!" Li An roared, his voice echoing through the void like Lei Mingban.

As the punch landed, the mysterious enemy's body seemed torn apart by an invisible force. Its form gradually grew hazy, finally dissolving into a cloud of dust that vanished into the void.

Li An and Guo Yao had successfully weathered this crisis. Looking at where the mysterious enemy had disappeared, both breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that defeating the enemy this time relied entirely on their tacit cooperation and firm resolve.

"Li An, we did it!" Guo Yao hugged Li An excitedly, her voice tinged with a sob. She knew that surviving this time depended entirely on Li An's courage and determination.

Li An hugged Guo Yao tightly as well; his heart filled with relief and pride. He knew that as long as Guo Yao was by his side, he feared nothing.

Just then, Li An suddenly sensed a strange power fluctuation coming from the Xukongzhi Sect. Startled, he quickly released Guo Yao and carefully perceived this power.

"What's wrong, Li An?" Seeing Li An's expression was off, Guo Yao asked urgently.

Li An frowned deeply, his gaze sharp as a hawk's fixed on the Xukongzhi Sect. He could feel that the power fluctuation contained an unprecedented darkness and evil.

"Not good, a dark power is awakening." Li An spoke in a low voice, his tone filled with grave.

Hearing this, Guo Yao's face changed drastically. She gripped Li An's arm tightly, as if afraid of losing him. "Then what should we do?"

Li An took a deep breath; he knew he must remain calm. He stared tightly at the Xukongzhi Sect, trying to locate the source of that dark power.

Just then, a strong sense of crisis surged in Li An's heart. He whirled around to see a 270 black figure appear behind them like a phantom. The figure radiated thick dark aura, as if a demon crawling out of the abyss.

"You are Li An and Guo Yao?" The figure emitted a hoarse, grating voice, unpleasant like metal scraping.

Both Li An and Guo Yao froze; they had not expected this dark power to appear before them so swiftly. They fixed their gaze on the figure, ready for battle.

"Correct, we are Li An and Guo Yao. Who are you?" Li An asked in a low voice, his tone filled with caution.
