The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 102 A Second's Difference

One shot,
Earth-shattering!

One strike,
Shocking!

Within a radius of a kilometer, all the flames surrounding the mountain, including the fire snake, were forcefully dispersed by Feng Ling. Not only that, but large swathes of the sky above the entire blazing inferno illusion began to collapse and crumble.

"Bang!" After being severely damaged, the entire illusory sea of ​​fire instantly deformed and twisted, gradually becoming unreal. Before the terrifying spatial compression force could get close, Feng Ling directly carried the woman in green and leaped into the misty sky at an altitude of ten thousand meters.

"Hmm?" Before leaving, Feng Ling had a thought. He closed his eyes and muttered a few short incantations. He instantly released the gun in his hand and struck the Fire-Tipped Spear away with a palm strike.

"Whoosh!" Amidst the howling wind, the red-tasseled spear, which had escaped control, miraculously continued to enlarge and occasionally burst into flames. When it finally reached a thickness of ten feet, it plunged straight into the endless sea of ​​fire.

The next moment, the world of illusion changed dramatically, and countless flames rushed towards a silver pillar in the center of the sea of ​​fire.

Before long, wisps of blood-red mist appeared in the flames, attempting to escape the territory it had originally occupied before being absorbed by them.

"Hmph, too late!" Feng Ling narrowed his eyes and immediately cast a golden spell at the Fire-Tipped Spear. Then, a powerful, domineering suction force emanated from it, pulling in the endless flames along with the torn, crimson resentment!

Without the support of the curse's resentful power, the illusionary world shattered suddenly like a glass mirror, and violent tearing forces raged from all directions.

The situation was extremely urgent. Seeing that the two were about to be swept into the sky, Feng Ling immediately gathered his strength in mid-air and activated his Fire-Tipped Spear to defend himself. He was just about to forcefully break through the blockade of this force when he changed his mind and worried that Feng Yuqing's soul would be injured as a result.

"Spirit Absorption Technique!" The purple-robed man frowned, but then a thought struck him. He quickly transformed the Fire-Tipped Spear, which had returned to its original size, back into the Ghost Spirit Life Token. Then, a gentle energy emanated from the black token, magically enveloping and absorbing the green-robed woman.

"Whoosh!" The token suddenly disappeared, and Feng Ling, empty-handed, smiled and suddenly used his bare hands to disperse the surrounding tearing force, domineeringly unleashing the first round of storm-like destruction.

"Boom!" Facing the violent tearing force generated by the collapse of the illusionary world, the purple-robed man, completely unprepared, stood calmly with his hands behind his back in the center of the storm, his robes fluttering, as if he were a peerless master.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that it was surrounded by a faint golden light, which blocked all energy from approaching.

Time passed slowly, and after an unknown amount of time, when all the storms had subsided, a clear and bright green spiritual altar was revealed at the center of this drastically changed world...

Seeing this, Feng Ling was overjoyed. The black token immediately reappeared in his hand, flashing with light. Then, a green light suddenly flew out around the green spiritual platform. After circling a few times, the light dissipated and landed on it. The eyelashes trembled slightly. It was Feng Yuqing, who was slowly waking up after being unconscious.

"Bang!" Before he could even greet them, a loud bang pierced through the barriers and reached his ears. Feng Ling frowned, inwardly cursing his bad luck, and his entire body transformed into a streak of light and vanished into this strange space.

"Crack—!" Inside the dark chamber, a pair of ferocious demonic claws suddenly pierced the shattered golden energy shield, causing numerous pieces of black scales to fall off. Then, Li Si roared violently, risking the breaking of his right arm, and in one fell swoop completely destroyed the energy shield protecting Feng Ling and the other.

This legendary protective shield was originally just something Feng Ling casually tossed aside. In addition, it had been unattended for a long time and had no new energy to replenish it. Under continuous and fierce attacks, its defensive power was naturally weakened over time.

Quickly traversing the short distance of a few meters, the thick fur all over the evil monster stood up like hard thorns, resembling a wild hedgehog with its sharp edges exposed.

"Roar~! Die!" Looking at the two defenseless and weak figures right in front of him, the demonized monster Li Si began to reveal a cruel grin. He raised his only intact and thick left arm and slammed it down on their faces.

Li Si was extremely frustrated. He had thought that after paying a heavy price to improve his strength, he would not need to take Feng Ling seriously and could crush him directly if they met.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Even a casually cast energy shield from the other party took him a long time to break through. If the energy hadn't been completely depleted, he didn't know when he would have been able to break through this tortoise shell, which was as tough as black iron.

This is simply an utter disgrace!
Thinking this, Li Si felt a surge of shame and anger, and he added even more brute force to his thick, one-armed weapon. There was no doubt that if this violently beautiful strike landed, it would smash Feng Ling and his companion into a bloody pulp!

"Whoosh!" Just before danger struck, a strange change occurred on the green-clad woman's forehead. A streak of purple light shot out at an astonishing speed and then disappeared without a trace.

"Uh...!?" Li Si was stunned for a moment, his hands pausing for a second. Then, his momentum remained undiminished as he continued to claim the lives of the two.

Li Si was secretly delighted, a cruel smile still on his face. Little did he know that losing that crucial second of death not only cost him the best opportunity to kill Feng Ling and the other man, but also cost him his life.

The sound of something tearing through the air rushed in, and a brutal attack was about to strike. The purple-clad man, who was sitting cross-legged, curled his lips into a contemptuous smirk. Then, he and the green-clad woman suddenly opened their eyes and raised their hands to deliver a casual punch.

"Boom—!" A tremendous force came through the point of contact with the wrist, and the bones in the arm cracked and snapped inch by inch, and the entire arm was so numb that it temporarily lost all feeling.

The jet-black scales fell off in an instant, revealing smooth, bloody, thick skin and flesh. Before he could even experience this inhuman pain, Li Si's pupils suddenly contracted again, and his entire massive body was lifted off the ground.

He was actually knocked back by the force of Feng Ling's punch, coughing up blood!

"Boom!" A strong gust of wind blew, and the hairy monster bound inside struggled desperately. As it flew backward, it endured the excruciating pain and forced a long trail of claw marks on the ground to dissipate most of its force.

Finally, the terrifying momentum was completely stopped when a half-meter-deep, human-shaped crater was smashed into the corner of the dark chamber wall. Amidst the billowing dust and debris, blood gushed out from the wall.

The life force vanished rapidly at an alarming rate. If Feng Ling hadn't reached a certain level of cultivation, he would never have been able to hear the faint, painful, low gasps emanating from the blood-covered figure in the pit.
