Chapter 610: The Great Battle of the Holy City (Part II)

The Phantom Immortal Dharma Image was seen grabbing toward the void with both hands; the void shattered instantly, a strand of yin energy flashed out from within, and it rapidly formed a black vortex!

At the center of the vortex, ten thousand black rays descended, directly shrouding that Flying Sword of Tang Yun! Instantly, the Flying Sword was affected by the power of the 'Falling Profound Light', and its might was reduced by more than half!

Taking advantage of this moment, the remaining Blue Flame True Thunder in the sky converged into a thick electric arc and greeted Tang Yun's body!

Within the ear, one could hear the old man let out a miserable shriek, his body struck squarely by the electric arc! Tang Yun's body was within the arc, and even the bones inside his body could be seen clearly!

After the strike succeeded, the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image charged straight down, the eight black meridians inside its body flashing, and with black-gold light flowing over its hands, a combined strike clamped Tang Yun into a meat patty! Even his Nascent Soul did not have time to escape!

This time killing Tang Yun was even more satisfying than beheading Yun Biehe!

In the blink of an eye for Bai Jing, Tang Yun had fallen; a blue electric arc flashed on Zhang Nuo's body, and with a peal of thunder, he disappeared from where he stood. The next moment, above Bai Jing's head, he backhanded the void downward! Instantly, a massive force acted upon Bai Jing's body!

With this person's Late Void Refinement Stage cultivation, he still found it difficult to withstand Zhang Nuo's strike against the void! His figure swayed, and he fell toward the ground! At the same time, in Zhang Nuo's other hand, a purple electric ball the size of a bean emerged! It flashed and disappeared.

Boom!

Underneath Bai Jing's feet, spatial fluctuations arose, and a sheet of purple electric arcs appeared out of thin air, like an ocean of electric arcs! Caught off guard, Bai Jing suffered a great loss! His body was struck by several electric arcs, his Divine Sense became muddled for a moment, and in this instant, he didn't even have the strength to unleash a Magic Treasure!

Zhang Nuo was overjoyed! With a movement of his Divine Sense, the dozen or so Flying Swords hovering around merged together, spirit-transforming into a Silver Dragon several dozen zhang long! Roaring, it bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it pounced toward Bai Jing!

The 'Thunder Art' was originally evolved from Chunyangzi's Pure Yang Divine Art, so its might naturally could not be underestimated! Plus, the Purple Lightning Wild Thunder was a rare object between heaven and earth; even if Bai Jing's cultivation was not low, he had no way to recover quickly after being struck!

Under the gaze of the many cultivators below, a Silver Dragon tore through the sky and swallowed Bai Jing into its belly in one gulp! Afterward, the giant dragon dispersed, but Bai Jing was nowhere to be found, not even leaving a single trace behind!

In a short amount of time, the Three Elders of the Human Emperor Realm had died at the hands of Zhang Nuo just like that! If the cultivators in the Holy City had previously envied Zhang Nuo's methods, then at this moment, all they felt was fear! A fear that arose from the bottom of their hearts! Even in the hearts of some cultivators with lower cultivation, a shadow had formed!

Withdrawing all his divine abilities, Zhang Nuo let out a long breath in his heart; as long as he successfully beheaded the Three Elders, then apart from Fang Leihuo, the Human Emperor Realm would have no more terrifying opponents! The first step had been completed, and the next step was to face the Human Emperor!

"Fang Leihuo! Are you still not coming out? Can you bear to watch your subordinates come to die one by one!"

Before Zhang Nuo's voice had even fallen, a streak of fire was seen rising into the sky from the Human Emperor Palace, which then transformed into a stunning rainbow and rushed to his proximity very quickly!

Looking at the might within this escape light, it was no less than the Late Void Refinement Stage; it should be Fang Leihuo himself who had arrived! The escape light retracted, and a man appeared from within; it was precisely the contemporary Human Emperor, Fang Leihuo!

"Zhang Nuo! You have bullied the Human Emperor Realm time and again; what is your intention? Who sent you here!"

Fang Leihuo's head was not stupid; based on his understanding of Zhang Nuo, it was impossible for him to come and cause trouble for no reason, and he had been merciless in his strikes, even beheading the Three Elders! He must have been instigated by someone, and it might even have a connection to the Immortal Domain Sixteen Chambers!

"Why speak in riddles when talking to a clear-eyed person? Great Human Emperor Fang, are you not clear about what you have done yourself? For your actions, even if you died a thousand times, it would be hard to atone for your sins!"

Zhang Nuo's expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice.

"What has this Emperor done?"

Although he guessed in his heart that his collusion with the Underworld might have been exposed, Fang Leihuo still pretended not to know!

"Whatever you have done, you had better go to the Underworld and ask your master!"

Zhang Nuo did not dare to say this sentence to his face, but instead used the Sound Transmission technique to send it directly to Fang Leihuo!

Upon hearing these words, Fang Leihuo understood completely; no wonder Zhang Nuo dared to come to the Holy City to find him so brazenly—it turned out there really was a mastermind behind the scenes! If things went poorly, there might be cultivators from the Sixteen Chambers lying in ambush on the outskirts of the Holy City! Even if Zhang Nuo were not a match, they would appear in the Holy City under secret identities and then end his life!

Thinking of this, Fang Leihuo was horrified, and his face could not help but turn ugly!

"Zhang Nuo!"

He gritted his teeth and called out Zhang Nuo's name, the voice filled with hatred!

"Heaven's sins may be forgiven! But one who brings disaster upon oneself cannot live! Go to your death!"

After saying these words indifferently, Zhang Nuo moved his Divine Sense, and the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image formed again above his head; at the same time, his hands moved through hand seals, and from his two shoulders, two heads grew out respectively—they were precisely those of Mysterious Gold and Qiongqi!

Facing Fang Leihuo, Zhang Nuo dared not be careless; no matter what, this was a generation of ambitious heroes, and he was simply not comparable to those Three Elders!

Seeing this strange appearance of Zhang Nuo, Fang Leihuo let out a long howl toward the sky! Man proposes, but heaven disposes; no matter how careful he was, he had still been discovered! Since it was death either way, it would be better to kill Zhang Nuo first! To resolve the hatred in his heart!

"It is not necessarily who will die!"

Fang Leihuo roared, and with a fierce opening of his mouth, endless red flames spewed out from it; instantly, the entire sky above Wushuang Saint Emperor City turned into a sea of fire! The raging flames rolled up sky-high waves of fire, and the surrounding temperature rose significantly in an instant! Many of the cultivators below were seeing the Human Emperor strike for the first time! Their faces all revealed expressions of horror!

At the same time, the temperature in the city rose, and many cultivators could not withstand the might of the flames and fled toward the outside of the city one after another! Only a few cultivators with not-weak cultivation remained in the city to continue watching!

Looking at the sea of fire below, Zhang Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly; it seemed the name Fang Leihuo was indeed not taken in vain. Since the name contained the characters for thunder and fire, he must still have a thunder-attribute divine ability that had not yet been revealed!

Fang Leihuo pointed at Zhang Nuo through the void, and immediately, a pillar of fire several zhang thick rolled up from the sea of fire below and greeted Zhang Nuo's body!

In order to test the might of the flames! Zhang Nuo pressed one hand toward the void below, and instantly, the upward-surging pillar of fire seemed to be restricted by something, its momentum slowing slightly! However, under Fang Leihuo's second urging, the flames surged into the sky once more!

Zhang Nuo's figure flashed, dodging the attack, and he had a measure of it in his heart! It seemed Fang Leihuo was indeed not comparable to the Three Elders; just a single strike was this overbearing!

"Mysterious Gold, Qiongqi, find an opportunity to give him a fatal blow!"

"Understood!"

The two Spirit Beasts replied simultaneously! Zhang Nuo's figure vibrated, and all the Flying Swords within the Nine Dragon Sword Case appeared; after a sword chime, the Flying Swords' spirit light shone brilliantly, and they all slashed toward Fang Leihuo!

"Do you think this kind of move can kill me? Hurry up and bring out your real skills!"

Facing the strangling of dozens of Flying Swords, Fang Leihuo did not have the slightest fear; instead, he let out a cold snort, and with a movement of his Divine Sense, the sea of fire below spewed out countless pillars of fire, knocking all the Flying Swords that had flown halfway away!

Zhang Nuo ignored him; behind his back, black Butterfly Wings and red fire wings appeared simultaneously, and with all four wings vibrating, he disappeared from where he stood! At the same time, the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image's eyes also flashed with red light, and its figure lunged forward toward Fang Leihuo!

"So what if you have cultivated a Dharma Image Golden Body?"

In a fit of rage, Fang Leihuo, facing the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image charging toward him, instead let out a cold laugh; as his hands separated left and right, two fire giants over five zhang tall grew out from beneath the sea of fire!

These two fire giants had bodies entirely composed of flames, with complete limbs, and they charged up from below toward the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image!

Caught off guard, the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image had its body embraced by the two fire giants! The scorching high temperature instantly flowed over the entire body of the Dharma Image! After a blur, the Dharma Image was about to collapse!

Originally, Zhang Nuo wanted to find an opportunity to ambush Fang Leihuo, but seeing the Dharma Image in trouble, he moved his figure and arrived above the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image!

Extending his five fingers, a Golden Light shot out from his palm, and after a swirl, it landed on the Phantom Immortal Dharma Image! As soon as the Golden Light was added to the Dharma Image, it immediately condensed into a suit of armor; it was precisely that 'Heavenly Demon God Armor'! After Zhang Nuo's hundreds of years of refining, the Heavenly Demon God Armor at this time was no longer comparable to what it was in the beginning!

The armor's Golden Light condensed and then exploded, directly shaking the two fire giants that were holding the Dharma Image apart, turning them into patches of firelight that merged back into the sea of fire below!

Fang Leihuo was greatly shocked; just by relying on a piece of armor, he could shake the fire giants apart—it seemed this armor was a very powerful treasure! Immediately, he moved his hand seals, and several fire giants appeared within the sea of fire, pouncing toward Zhang Nuo!

The flames were sky-high! Several fire giants, as if rushing out from a sea of fire in hell, roared as they arrived in front of Zhang Nuo! He only felt the temperature around his body rise again, and sweat appeared on his forehead!

On the surface of Zhang Nuo's sturdy body, ripples of golden light emerged; if it were not for his Dharma-Body Dual Cultivation, he feared that at this time, he would have been unable to withstand the heat of this sea of fire alone!

At this time, Mysterious Gold and Qiongqi, who were on Zhang Nuo's shoulders, opened their mouths simultaneously, and several beams of light blasted out, instantly shattering the few fire giants closest to Zhang Nuo!

On the other hand, Zhang Nuo's chest rose and fell slightly, and a pale-colored Small Tripod flew out from within; purple and blue electric arcs surged out from the tripod together, transforming into a large net of electric arcs that shrouded the fire giants rushing toward him as well!
