Chapter 6665 Fatal Blow
Mo Qianzai took a step forward. His white hair was somewhat disheveled, his white robe was torn in many places, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
However, compared to Xiao Chen, his condition was significantly better. Although his aura fluctuated slightly, the killing intent in his eyes surged to its peak.
Clearly, Xiao Chen's strength and potential had completely ignited his determination to kill him.
The next second, Mo Qianzai formed an extremely ancient and sinister hand seal with his hands.
The blood-red skull, which had already mostly disintegrated in the explosion, did not completely disappear. Instead, under his control, it instantly reformed!
Moreover, its shape has become even more bizarre!
This time it was no longer a complete skull, but split into a dozen or so smaller, blood-red skulls made of pure vengeful energy and dark gold runes!
They spun rapidly around Mo Qianzai, emitting a piercing shriek that shattered one's very soul.
"A thousand souls devour your heart! Xiao Chen, prepare to die!"
Mo Qianzai's eyes flashed with bloodlust, and he pushed forward with both hands!
Those dozen or so blood-red skulls, like ferocious beasts that had received a command, instantly locked onto Xiao Chen, whose aura was disordered, with a terrifying power that could tear through space and devour everything.
They shot in from all directions and from all sorts of tricky angles, as if they were teleporting!
The speed is far greater than before!
Each skull exudes an aura powerful enough to severely injure or even kill a top-tier expert. They have only one goal—to completely destroy Xiao Chen's physical body and devour his soul!
"Chen'er!"
On the dragon boat, Chen Nian, who had been closely watching his son, was filled with rage!
She clearly felt the terrifying power contained in those blood-red skulls; given Xiao Chen's current state, it was impossible for him to completely withstand it!
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Nianyu slammed her hand onto the core array of the Heavenly Dragon Boat, activating it with all her might!
"Heavenly Dragon Break Formation! Blast it open!"
hum!
The Heavenly Dragon Boat burst forth with unprecedented brilliance, its hull trembled violently, and at its massive bow, a gigantic horn of light, condensed from pure energy and resembling the horn of an ancient dragon, instantly took shape!
This is one of the Dragon Boat's most powerful and secret attack methods, but it puts a tremendous strain on the boat and is rarely used.
Boom! ! !
This enormous dragon bone horn, carrying the indomitable momentum of the Heavenly Dragon Boat, slammed fiercely into the massive black magic weapon blocking its path between it and Xiao Chen!
Click!
A deafening sound of metal shattering rang out!
The indestructible black magic weapon withstood the terrifying blow from the Heavenly Dragon Boat head-on, and the dark light flowing on its surface was instantly torn apart and annihilated.
On the massive magical artifact, spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly from the point of impact, followed by a mournful cry of despair before it exploded with a deafening roar!
Countless fragments burning with black flames scattered like a meteor shower, turning dozens of Holy Heaven Sect experts who couldn't dodge in time into ashes.
The black-robed elder standing on top let out a shrill scream as he was torn apart by the violent energy at the center of the explosion, his body and soul annihilated!
This weapon of war, which the Holy Heaven Sect was so proud of, was forcibly destroyed by Chen Nian, who controlled the Heavenly Dragon Boat, at the cost of the boat's dimming light and the overload damage to some of the magic arrays!
The shockwave from the explosion temporarily blocked the battlefield, giving Chen Nian a sliver of hope.
Despite the aftershocks of the explosion, the Heavenly Dragon Boat, like a wounded dragon, charged headlong toward Xiao Chen with unwavering determination!
Chen Nian's goal was clear: even if it meant using the hull of the Heavenly Dragon Boat, he would shield his son from this deadly series of attacks!
However, Mo Qianzai's "Ten Thousand Souls Devouring the Heart" was too fast!
The blood-red skull, like a leech, ignored the chaotic energy flow and had already penetrated the explosion zone, now only a hundred feet away from Xiao Chen!
The overwhelming vengeful spirits and the chilling killing intent that locked onto his soul made Xiao Chen's breath catch in his throat.
"Damn it, this old dog is definitely the true ceiling of combat power in the Outer Heavens!"
Xiao Chen cursed inwardly, thinking that Mo Qianzai was probably a few levels stronger than Qingdi and Shan Bubai!
Come to think of it, this old dog has been in charge of the Holy Heaven Sect and has been hiding all along; he has far too many trump cards up his sleeve!
As thoughts flashed through his mind, Xiao Chen's eyes hardened. He frantically channeled his remaining true energy, crossing the Xuanyuan Blade and the Xuanyuan Sword in front of him, preparing for a final, desperate struggle!
The bone ring was also slightly warm, ready to devour any incoming soul attacks at any time.
At a distance of a hundred feet, such an attack would arrive in an instant!
Even though the dragon boat is fast, it's too late!
At this critical juncture, when life and death were hanging in the balance!
Suddenly, without warning, a crack appeared in the space beneath Xiao Chen's feet.
Immediately afterwards, a massive, imposing figure, exuding an aura of ancient vicissitudes, silently appeared between Xiao Chen and the dozen or so deadly blood skulls!
It's an old tortoise!
It had somehow sneaked here without anyone noticing!
It didn't roar; it simply retracted its limbs and head back into its shell, which was covered with mysterious patterns.
The next second, the tortoise shell emitted a thick, earthy yellow light, like the earth itself!
As the light shone, ancient runes clearly emerged and moved on the surface of the tortoise shell, forming an indestructible barrier.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
boom……
A dozen or so blood-red skulls, each carrying Mo Qianzai's deadly will and powerful enough to kill a top-tier Martial Emperor, rained down on the old tortoise's shell, which glowed with an earthy yellow light!
The blinding blood light and the heavy yellow light collided violently, bursting out with a sharper and more ear-piercing explosion than when Xiao Chen and Mo Qianzai clashed before!
The sound pierced the very soul, causing all living beings on the battlefield to feel dizzy and their hearts to pound.
Click!
A soft yet incredibly clear cracking sound stood out starkly against the deafening roar, sounding both abrupt and jarring!
On the old tortoise's supposedly indestructible shell, which had withstood divine weapons without a scratch, a clear crack suddenly appeared, centered on the spot where the blood-red skull had struck it directly!
Immediately afterwards, fine cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, instantly covering half of the carapace!
"puff!"
The old tortoise, which had been hiding inside its shell, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood essence containing an earthy yellow glow.
The blood splattered onto the inner wall of the tortoise shell, instantly dimming its luster.
Its massive body trembled as it was sent flying backward by the terrifying impact, crashing heavily into Xiao Chen, who had just regained his footing and was preparing to fight to the death!
boom!
Already at his limit, Xiao Chen had no time to dodge. With the force of the impact, his vision went black, he felt a sweet taste in his throat, and spat out another mouthful of blood.
He and the old tortoise tumbled backward together, crashing heavily onto the edge of the broken canyon, kicking up clouds of dust.
"Brother Turtle!"
Ignoring his own injuries, Xiao Chen struggled to get up, looked at the old tortoise beside him whose light was dim, whose shell was full of cracks, and whose aura was weak, and let out a roar!
