Chapter 244

The qi energy on his body grew denser by a fraction.

However.

This good fortune did not last long.

He had only surged forward a dozen or so times.

The surging qi energy halted its ascent.

It became stuck in an in-between state.

'Is it going to fail?'

His heart tightened slightly.

A hint of bitterness rose in Senior Dugu Qiubai's mouth.

Opposite him.

It seemed he had sensed his anomaly.

Senior Dugu Jian's gaze flickered.

With a slight shift of intent.

He smiled and further increased the pressure.

In the blink of an eye.

Senior Dugu Qiubai, who had just sighed inwardly and was about to end it all.

Suddenly felt a terrifying, overwhelming pressure sweeping down like a tidal wave.

A faint joy stirred in his heart.

He knew immediately it was the other's doing.

He dared not slacken for a moment.

He immediately held his breath, focused his spirit, and unleashed all his strength.

Striking against the shackles already on the verge of shattering.

Pop~~

As a sound like a bursting bubble echoed within his body.

Senior Dugu Qiubai's original peak of Heavenly Human aura surged wildly.

In an instant, it multiplied dozens of times.

That overwhelming, suffocating aura shot upward, piercing the nine heavens!

The might of this pressure.

For a moment.

Even the empty space above him underwent violent changes!

And the instant the celestial phenomenon appeared,

The previously clear, boundless sky.

In no time.

Gathered countless Lei Yun.

A few breaths later,

Under invisible gravitational forces,

Lei Yun obscured sun and moon; the void howled with furious winds!

Deep within the clouds,

Endless Lei Ting flashed within.

At the same time,

A terrifying pressure, chilling to the bone, descended upon them.

It instantly locked onto Senior Dugu Qiubai.

"He… he broke through?!!"

Beside him,

Watching this scene unfold,

Senior Dugu Yifang's eyes widened.

He exclaimed in trembling awe.

Immediately after,

As if he had just realized something,

He swiftly retreated backward.

Afraid of being dragged into it!

In the snap of a finger,

He put distance between himself and Senior Dugu Qiubai.

He looked up at the void, face filled with utter shock.

139-Senior Dugu Qiubai vs Senior Dugu Jian! (Request self-subscription)

Perhaps drawing on his prior experience watching Lü Donglai's tribulation,

Facing that terrifying heavenly might,

Senior Dugu Qiubai's face remained utterly calm.

With his hands behind his back, he walked step by step into the void.

Boom—!!!

Accompanied by a violent boom.

The stormclouds, long brewing, suddenly unleashed a thunderclap!

In but an instant.

A Lei Long hundreds of zhang long appeared in the void.

Roaring as it charged toward Senior Dugu Qiubai.

The majestic heavenly might it carried from above.

Made Senior Dugu Yifang beside him gasp for breath.

Not only that.

Even the blood within his body stirred sluggishly.

Thus, one could see how exaggerated and terrifying its power was!

"Abandoning a realm, restraining half a lifetime's arrogance, seeking only an opponent—for one battle!"

"This sword is named, Senior Dugu Qiubai!!"

Gazing intently at the Lei Long.

Senior Dugu Qiubai raised his right hand, fingers forming a sword.

He spoke slowly, word by word.

As his right hand swept through the air.

A Bai Xi, nearly transparent sword aura shot forth.

Wherever it passed.

Aside from the fierce sound of tearing air.

Even the surrounding space trembled faintly.

Its terror was plain to see!

"Huh?!"

Seeing this move.

Senior Dugu Jian let out a startled exclamation.

A hint of surprise appeared on his face.

He looked at the figure of Senior Dugu Qiubai standing in midair.

His pupils ignited with battle lust.

In contrast to him.

Senior Dugu Yifang beside him, upon seeing this.
