Chapter 1320: One Slash to Cut Down Little Zhao
Boom!
The instant Li Luo's figure shot out, it was as if it brought with it an extremely piercing sonic boom. His speed became incomparably ferocious at this moment, and as afterimages surfaced one after another, his figure had already taken the lead in charging toward Zhao Jiyun and the others.
A ferocious, extreme aura surged up into the heavens.
"Truly arrogant!"
Zhao Jiyun saw this and his face turned an iron-blue of the deepest shade. Li Luo, a mere Da Tian Xiang Jing, actually dared to intercept five of their Marquis-level powerhouses, among whom there was even a presence like himself at the Upper Third Rank. This kind of behavior truly treated them like chickens and tiles.
"Strike together and slay him on the spot!" Killing intent surged in Zhao Jiyun's eyes as he roared.
In the next instant, the five struck simultaneously. Marquis Platforms stood tall in the void, and one saw the Marquis Divine Smoke transform into numerous wondrous attacks that blotted out the sky as they pounced toward Li Luo's figure to slay him.
But Li Luo at this moment, under the empowerment of the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's power and his own suddenly freakishly strong physical body, was as fast as rolling thunder. Even Zhao Jiyun could only faintly see a blurred streak of light tearing through the void.
Those attacks transformed from the streams of Marquis Divine Smoke all missed entirely.
"Zhao Zhuoyan, be careful, he's charging at you!" Zhao Jiyun shouted sharply.
Zhao Zhuoyan's heart jolted, and his figure hurriedly retreated. But from ahead, the faint sound of thunder had already come. In a blur before his eyes, he saw Li Luo—clad in a purple-gold dragon-scale armor, gripping a serrated straight blade—carrying an overwhelming murderous aura as he appeared before him.
The oppressive force emanating from Li Luo at this moment caused even Zhao Zhuoyan's face to involuntarily pale.
"I said, if you don't want peace, then go die."
Li Luo's icy voice contained a thick killing intent. Last time he had merely cut Zhao Zhuoyan in half; this time, since it was already a fight to the death, there was no need for any mercy.
Li Luo directly swung his blade and slashed out. Blade light splashed forth, directly shattering this stretch of space. The blade light was ferociously murderous to the extreme, because this slash was the perfect fusion of the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf and Li Luo's extremely powerful physical body.
The blade light reflected in Zhao Zhuoyan's eyes, bringing him an intensely thick aura of death.
Zhao Zhuoyan was terrified to the extreme. The two Marquis Platforms above his head rumbled into motion, and thick streams of Marquis Divine Smoke flowed forth, rapidly condensing in front of him into a flame shield inscribed with blazing light patterns.
The ferociously overbearing blade light did not hesitate in the slightest because of Zhao Zhuoyan's defenses. The blade light slashed down and made contact with the flame shield formed from the Marquis Divine Smoke.
Sizzle!
With only a faint sound, thick terror welled up in Zhao Zhuoyan's eyes, because he saw that flame shield at this moment being sliced open as easily as tofu by the blade light.
The defense he had poured all his strength into appeared so laughable and ridiculous before Li Luo at this moment.
In this instant, his entire body turned icy cold.
"Impossible! Impossible! With my strength as a peak Lower Second Rank Marquis, how could I be pushed into such a desperate situation by a mere Da Tian Xiang Jing like him?"
At this very moment, Zhao Zhuoyan was filled with utter disbelief. A Marquis-level Greater Spirit Beast possessed extremely ferocious power. Let alone a Da Tian Xiang Jing like Li Luo, even he himself, a Marquis Realm cultivator, would not dare to casually allow the ferocious energy of a Spirit Beast to enter his own body, because this kind of energy contained ferocity and chaos, and absorbing it carelessly would instead invite backlash. In this world, only special forces like the "Beast Tamer Spirit Hall" possessed some top-tier and unique Mi Fa, ultimately allowing the power between human and Spirit Beast to achieve a fusion.
But Li Luo seemed to ignore this kind of influence entirely.
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhao Zhuoyan's mind, but before he could utter a single word, the blade light filled with ferocious murderous aura had already swept across his neck.
Fresh blood spurted forth, and a human head soared into the sky.
As the world spun around him, the last thing Zhao Zhuoyan saw was Li Luo's mouth slightly moving, as if soundlessly saying: "Little Zhao, farewell forever."
Zhao Zhuoyan's fall here also fell into the eyes of Zhao Jiyun and the others, and they all paled instantly. Who could have imagined that in just a single exchange, Zhao Zhuoyan, whose strength had reached the peak Lower Second Rank Marquis, would be slain instantly by Li Luo.
"Li Luo, you shall die!"
Zhao Jiyun was furious. Zhao Zhuoyan was the Grand Commander of the Divine Tiger Guard, and now being slain by Li Luo would undoubtedly greatly weaken the strength of their Divine Tiger Guard. Moreover, with the Grand Commander slain, the face of the Divine Tiger Guard was thoroughly lost.
In his fury, Zhao Jiyun also seized the instant when Li Luo, having slain Zhao Zhuoyan, had his figure slow down. With a thought, three towering, massive Marquis Platforms transformed into streams of light and directly slammed down with vicious force toward Li Luo's location.
The three Marquis Platforms contained extremely tremendous Xiang Force, their weight like three colossal mountains holding up the heavens. Now that they crashed down ferociously, even that stretch of void was forcibly crushed, cracking open countless spatial fissures.
The Grand Commander and Second Commander of the other two Golden Peng Guards, seeing this, also took the opportunity to urge their Marquis Platforms into motion, using the most primitive yet direct method of attack to suppress Li Luo.
For Marquis-level powerhouses, the Marquis Platform was not only a symbol of one's own foundation, but in battle it was also a force not to be underestimated—capable of attack and defense, possessing numerous wondrous abilities.
Li Luo, having slain Zhao Zhuoyan with thunderous momentum on his side, also sensed the attacks from Zhao Jiyun and the others closing in. At this moment, there was no time to retreat, but he had no intention of retreating either.
The sharp dragon claw covered in purple-gold dragon scales gripped the hilt of the Dragon Elephant Blade tightly. The ferociously extreme energy of the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf rampaged and roared within his body, and Li Luo's emotions also became exhilarated because of this surging power.
"Wolf Bro, ready for slaughter?" he laughed loudly.
Within the crimson bracelet, the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf, crouched on the ground, let out a low snort. However, in its crimson wolf pupils, a hint of shock flashed. One must know that it was now comparable to an Upper Third Rank Marquis powerhouse, and this ferocious energy was countless times stronger than before. Originally it had thought that Li Luo's reckless use of its power this time would cause him some suffering.
But, to its shock, after its energy poured into Li Luo's body, it actually appeared more docile than ever before, and even that murderous aura failed to erode Li Luo in the slightest.
If it weren't still in control of its own energy, it would even have suspected whose power this actually was.
And after observing, it finally understood—this was because Li Luo had evolved the Heavenly Dragon Physique.
His body, under the immersion of the Heavenly Dragon Physique, had forged the "Heavenly Dragon True Body." And the Heavenly Dragon stood at the pinnacle of the pyramid among Spirit Beast races; even the strongest of their Heavenly Wolf clan, the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Wolf, was somewhat weaker than it.
At this moment, Li Luo, tempered by the Dragon-Seed True Pill's dragon transformation and the Heavenly Dragon True Body, was simply like a humanoid Heavenly Dragon. Under the pervasion of this Heavenly Dragon's might, the ferocious energy of the Heavenly Wolf clan naturally did not dare to act up within his body.
This situation left the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf feeling very complicated. In the past, when Li Luo borrowed its power, he always had to be extremely careful and cautious, worried about being eroded by the ferocious aura and becoming its wolf slave.
But now, its ferocious aura could no longer pose a threat to Li Luo.
In other words, this fellow could henceforth use its power without any restraint.
This made the Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf inwardly groan. In the past, its power had already been squeezed quite hard by this kid despite its many hidden dangers, and now that he could fully withstand its power, wouldn't he drain this kid into a dried corpse?
But this kid was truly ferocious. With the strength of one man and one wolf, he had actually managed to slay one of the five Marquis powerhouses in a thunderous manner under their joint attack. This kind of feat, if it had been done by itself, would certainly have been impossible.
The Six-Tailed Heavenly Wolf gazed at Li Luo's overwhelmingly imposing figure at this moment, and understood in its heart that once Li Luo broke through to the Marquis Realm this time, the balance of power between the two of them might truly begin to shift.
Perhaps, this kid really was a worthy master.
