Lu Mingfei, become the King of Elden!

Chapter 328 Do you also want to dance?

As soon as the merchant from the nomadic tribe finished speaking, the tall and terrifying humanoid figure in front of Lu Mingfei and Subaru Natsuki put away the rusty shield in his hand, carried it on his back, and a scarlet light emanated from his sword, his hands, and his entire body.

Lu Mingfei could feel a surge of life energy emanating from his body. The inner self of the Bell Hunter seemed to be a unified whole, with body, soul and will merging into one. The inner laws were manifesting and turning, and life was without leakage.

Is this what "qi" is?
What a brilliant technique!

Lu Mingfei was secretly alarmed.

His level of existence seemed to have been elevated, transcending mortals and infinitely approaching some higher level of being, bringing a sudden increase in the sense of oppression!
In the next instant, without giving the two any time to react, the Bell Hunter grasped the floating sword hilt with one hand and suddenly spun it rapidly in front of him!
A crimson, blinding energy vortex appeared out of thin air as the sword spun, and it spun faster and faster, becoming more and more violent, emitting a buzzing sound like the shrieks of countless wronged souls, as if a small blood storm was about to devour everything!
"Old man, you really have a jinx!"

Subaru Natsuki's expression changed drastically. He roared and quickly sheathed the Greatsword of the Hunting Gods behind his back, while simultaneously pulling out a large, mottled, tooth-shaped shield adorned with the emblem of a roaring lion.

His arm muscles bulged, and with a dull thud, he firmly planted the heavy shield in front of him, pressing his entire center of gravity onto it.

Lu Mingfei reacted extremely quickly. He knew that Subaru Natsuki's large shield had an astonishing defensive capability and was the best choice to deal with this kind of area-of-effect burst attack.

He instantly flashed behind Subaru Natsuki and casually made a two-finger prayer gesture for "Recovery".

In just three short seconds, the Bell Hunter had finished charging up!

The rapidly spinning scarlet vortex had expanded to a size large enough to engulf several people, and he pushed his arms forward with a sudden force!
The destructive crimson vortex, like a blood-red dragon unleashed, charged fiercely towards Subaru Natsuki, who was defending with his shield raised, and Lu Mingfei, who was standing to the side!

Subaru Natsuki roared, channeling all his power into his shield. Black flames burned on the shield's surface, attempting to counteract the corrosive crimson energy.

Bang! ! !
The crimson vortex crashed squarely into the Red Lion's Great Shield!

For a moment, the ear-piercing metallic sound, the sound of energy annihilation from an explosion, and Natsuki Subaru's muffled groans mingled together.

The terrifying impact of the crimson vortex pushed his feet, carving two deep furrows in the ground.

Natsuki Subaru gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, and with his extraordinary physique, he managed to prevent the destructive vortex from completely breaking through his defenses.

Just as that raging crimson vortex was about to run out of steam.

Lu Mingfei, who had been lurking behind Natsuki Subaru, made his move.

His face beneath the helmet was instantly covered with fine, cold black scales, his bones crackled and popped, and his entire body seemed to swell up!
An ancient, savage pressure suddenly descended.

Roar--! ! !
That was a roar of a dragon from the ancient past!

A phantom and enormous dragon blood mark flashed behind him, and at that moment his head seemed to transform into an ancient and majestic dragon head phantom, roaring deafeningly to the sky.

The legendary prayer, "Guiou's Roar".

The terrifying sound waves, mixed with the dragon's might, transformed into a visible shockwave that violently erupted in all directions!

The Bell Hunter was clearly unprepared for such a bizarre and powerful counterattack. The deafening roar, imbued with the power of the "Ancient Dragon" Guiol, slammed into him squarely. It hit him!

"Well--!"

He groaned, and his perfectly smooth "qi" field was violently shattered by the dragon's roar. The brief stiffness caused by the high-speed rotation was amplified, and he felt as if he had been hit by a giant hammer. His movements stopped instantly, and he even staggered backward uncontrollably.

Not only that, the Bell Hunter was surprised to find that the roar seemed to affect the soul. He could feel a weakness coming from within his body, and the defense and attack built by "qi" had become weaker!
What is this?
Almost at the same time that Lu Mingfei roared, Natsuki Subaru understood immediately.

He abruptly swung the Red Lion Greatshield, which had developed fine cracks on its surface, and unleashed the Hunting God Greatsword, which was wreathed in towering black flames, like a ferocious beast breaking free of its cage, with unstoppable momentum!
"I've been putting up with you for a long time!"

The pitch-black flames tore through the air, carrying the will to burn away even the gods, and slashed fiercely at the Bell Hunter's chest, which had lost its "aura" protection.

A brilliant team effort, a deadly counterattack!
The greatsword of the Hunting God, which came from an ancient era and was once the sword of a supreme deity, tore through the nearly collapsing foreign armor. The locks broke, and bright red blood gushed out from the gaping wound, with black flames clinging and leaping on it.

The Bell Hunter let out a muffled groan.

As a highly skilled foreign cultivator and a battle-hardened warrior, he demonstrated exceptional qualities and judgment.

The Bell Hunter swiftly raised his shield and retreated, while the crimson "aura" instantly enveloped the wound that had spread from his chest to his upper abdomen, slowing the bleeding but failing to extinguish the black flames.

The highest quality black flame in the Greatsword of the Hunting Gods came from the earliest owner of this holy sword, the Night-Eyed Queen.

Although she has lost the power of "Destined Death", Queen Blackflame still retains the residual power to burn life.

This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury.

The Bell Hunter raised his right hand, and the uniquely shaped broadsword glowed red again. Accompanied by a piercing sound, it flashed and whistled towards the two, attempting to force them back, regain a moment of respite, and even turn the tide of the battle!

clang--

Lu Mingfei's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to parry. Natsuki Subaru also took the opportunity to slide and jump, gripping the greatsword with both hands and raising it high before slashing down fiercely!
But the Bell Hunter's reaction was faster than anyone could have imagined!

Faced with Subaru Natsuki's fierce attack, he didn't even fully retract his control of the flying sword. He simply swung his left arm and the rusty iron thorn shield was once again raised in front of him. With a muffled "thud," it steadily blocked the greatsword burning with black flames!
The recoil from the shield made Subaru's arm go numb slightly, and he could even see that the other's arm holding the shield was as steady as a rock, without the slightest tremor.

How can it be? !
Natsuki Subaru was horrified.

The wound on his chest was real, and the black flames were still burning. How could he possibly still have such strength and a calm demeanor?
"Ho..."

A muffled, hoarse gasp came from beneath the visor, the sound of which was neither pain nor excitement indiscernible.

He suddenly exerted force to shake off Subaru Natsuki's greatsword, and with a flick of his right hand, the scarlet flying sword drew a strange arc in the air before returning to his hand and instantly starting to spin.

Ohr Sword Dance!
