Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Outside the Gray Curtain.
Luo Qinghan, Baili Hong, and Lei Long's battle had already entered its most intense stage.
The moment his saber was bitten by the dragon, Baili Hong did not choose to yank it free; instead, he used the backlash power surging from within Lei Long's body to spin around, twisting his waist and hips in midair, and stirring his great knife diagonally within the wound on the dragon's ribs.
The next second, White Tiger killing energy poured into the dragon's body along the blade, launching a grinding slaughter against the purple-black Thunder Dao law fragments within the dragon's body.
Baili Hong wore a wild smile at the corner of his mouth, allowing the thunder power to land on him; not only did he not retreat, he pushed the great knife forward another half chi and shouted loudly: "Break!"
The White Tiger killing energy exploded inside the dragon's body, tearing that wound from three chi to nearly ten zhang, and torrents of thunder power poured out from the crack.
Aoo~
Lei Long let out a heaven-shaking, earth-rending pained roar; its dragon tail swept over like a moving mountain range. Baili Hong drew his saber and retreated hastily, and the area swept by the dragon tail had the void directly torn into a black rift spanning the horizon.
"Opportunity!"
Luo Qinghan seized the momentary gap Baili Hong had created; her right hand formed hand seals, and the rotation speed of the ten-thousand-zhang cold moon behind her accelerated.
The extreme cold long rivers on the surface of the moon wheel, as if released from their bonds, broke away from the moon wheel, transforming into nine ice crystal chains hundreds of zhang long, simultaneously wrapping around Lei Long's body from nine different directions.
Roar!
Lei Long struggled madly; wherever the purple-black thunder light on its body touched the ice crystal chains, large patches of law fragments exploded.
But Luo Qinghan's Cold Moon law was obviously superior in might to the Thunder Dao law; although the ice crystal chains were shaken until they constantly cracked, they never snapped, instead tightening inch by inch inward, firmly coiling Lei Long's nearly thousand-zhang dragon body in place.
Immediately after, Luo Qinghan's voice rang out: "Junior Brother Feng, Daoist Lu, take this opportunity to find the traces left by the space teleportation array.
I need to know who escaped, and where they went!"
"Yes."
Feng Buhui and Lu Wangchuan responded at the same time; one started from the spatial fluctuations remaining in the teleportation array, the other deduced backward from the attenuation pattern of the law tremors, their tacit understanding so great they almost did not need to communicate with words.
Feng Buhui probed the spatial law threads between his ten fingers into those gradually dissipating spatial ripples, and after a moment said: "Strange, the teleportation distance is not far; it's even near this planet."
Lu Wangchuan's side also reached the same conclusion from the attenuation curve of the law tremors; he unhurriedly withdrew the spatial imprint from his palm: "The destination of the teleportation seems to be the outer void of this planet.
And after teleporting, he did not continue to flee."
"Deliberately not running, and stopping outside the planet waiting for us?"
Xu Zhangqing frowned within the Gray Curtain; this abnormal situation made him feel as if he were being plotted against: "Could it be that the other side is not trying to save their life, but waiting for someone?
Or rather, waiting for reinforcements to arrive before turning around to encircle us!"
Jin Buhuan, hearing this, pondered for a moment and said: "Xu Zhangqing's speculation is probably nine out of ten correct.
The Cang Lei Ancient Clan has operated in the Endless Star Domain for thirty-eight thousand years, and its relationship with the various forces of Dongji Lingzhou is deeply intertwined.
The spirit mines and pills they purchase from Dongji Lingzhou every year are astronomical figures, and the spirit stones they contribute to the several great chambers of commerce of Dongji Lingzhou are enough to support more than a dozen medium sects.
Moreover, Dongji Lingzhou is nominally jointly managed by the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce and several great merchant alliances, but the Guardian Envoy stationed here, Huo Yuan, is himself a troublesome figure.
His background is extremely strong, and his strength is sufficient.
If the survivors of the Cang Lei Ancient Clan contact him, Huo Yuan cannot sit by and do nothing.
Because once the Cang Lei Ancient Clan is exterminated, the annual loss of this revenue to Dongji Lingzhou is enough for Huo Yuan to have a demerit recorded against him by the True Lord of the Myriad Worlds."
Just as Jin Buhuan was analyzing the situation, outside the Gray Curtain, Luo Qinghan had already completed the final suppression of Lei Long.
The nine ice crystal chains completely closed in; Lei Long's nearly thousand-zhang huge body was frozen layer by layer from outside to inside by the Cold Moon law, and the purple-black thunder light still struggled and flashed within the ice layer, but after each flash it became weaker than before.
Within the dragon's chest, the rotation speed of that nearly zhang-long complete finger bone also obviously slowed down; every rotation required a pause of several breaths.
Luo Qinghan pressed down with one hand, and the nine ice crystal chains exerted force simultaneously, pressing the half-frozen Lei Long from the air onto the ice rock ground.
Instantly, a huge depression over two thousand zhang in diameter was smashed into the ground; shattered ice rock and frozen thunder light fragments sprayed outward like a fountain.
The aftershocks of the impact even penetrated the dark side of the law, causing the several people within the Gray Curtain to feel a distinct trembling.
Lei Long's huge body struggled a few times within the ice layer before completely stopping; the finger bone in its chest stopped rotating, and the two thunder vortexes in its dragon eyes gradually extinguished after letting out a low mournful cry.
Baili Hong blinked his eyes: "As expected of a calamity beast, indeed powerful.
It's just a pity that this time they ran into Second Senior Sister!"
Luo Qinghan gave him a white-eye look, then descended from the air, standing on the frozen dragon head of Lei Long, and nodded toward the direction of the Gray Curtain.
Mo Li, seeing this, withdrew the Shadow law, and Xu Zhangqing and Jin Buhuan reappeared above the city.
To be honest, it could no longer be called a city now.
The saber marks and frozen cracks crisscrossing the ground had sliced it up like a shattered porcelain plate; the blood on the ice rock ground was frozen by the Cold Moon law into patches of dark red ice flowers, reflecting under the gray-white sky light a luster that made one uncomfortable.
Baili Hong slung his great knife onto his shoulder: "Senior Sister, should we dig out the finger bone inside this calamity beast's body as well?
This is a complete Ancient God of the Thunder Dao finger bone!"
Luo Qinghan shook her head: "There's no rush to take out the finger bone; this calamity beast can be driven by the finger bone, which means a law symbiosis has already formed between the finger bone and the dragon body.
If we rashly take it out, it might instead cause the dragon body to self-destruct."
Baili Hong nodded slightly: "That's true."
Luo Qinghan looked at Feng Buhui and Lu Wangchuan: "Confirmed the location?"
Feng Buhuan imprinted the remaining traces of the teleportation array and spread them in the air, sketching out an illusory star map, then marked a flashing red light spot; the red light spot was located at the outer perimeter of this planet: "Right here; the person who teleported out didn't leave at all!"
Luo Qinghan called out: "Go, let's take a look!"
Almost simultaneously, several people shifted into the outer void of the planet.
Around here, some shattered ice rocks and asteroid fragments floated.
Between the ice rock fragments, nearly twenty figures stood in a row.
The xiuxian zhe standing at the very front wore a dark blue-green long robe, embroidered with the exclusive spirit pattern of the Guardian Envoy of Dongji Lingzhou, with a token condensed from Hunyuan Heavy Water hanging at his waist.
This person was precisely Huo Yuan, Guardian Envoy of Dongji Lingzhou!
