"Bang--!!!"

A muffled thud.

A streak of blue light was slammed down from mid-air.

Gravel flew everywhere, and dust billowed.

Dan Heng crashed heavily into the ruins, right next to Jing Yuan.

"cough……"

He braced himself with one hand, trying to stand up.

But his body staggered uncontrollably.

Even the indestructible Strike Cloud was trembling slightly, its shaft covered with fine cracks.

His hand was already split open, and blood slid down the gun barrel, dripping and staining the scorched earth beneath his feet.

too strong.

The power of the Great Lord of Annihilation, combined with the blessing of the Jianmu tree, is something they cannot contend with at present.

Dan Heng did not turn around.

He stared intently at the arrogant figure in mid-air, panting heavily, his voice hoarse:

"Not... done yet?"

however.

His response was a chilling silence.

Jing Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, his brows furrowed.

"not yet……"

"I don't know why..."

"Each time the divine power has just condensed, each time the golden phantom has just taken shape..."

"It will...disappear inexplicably."

"It's like being punctured by something unseen..."

Jing Yuan clutched his chest, the feeling of powerlessness making him feel suffocated.

"The deity... cannot be summoned."

(Aha: Hehe~)

"..."

Dan Heng was silent for a moment.

His throat moved.

He forced back the mouthful of blood that was rising to his throat.

Has even General Shence's trump card failed?

A desperate situation.

A true dead end.

"call……"

Dan Heng took a deep breath, and the blue light in his eyes surged again:

"At most..."

"We can hold them off for another two minutes."

"Two minutes..."

Jing Yuan fell silent.

He knew what those two minutes meant.

That's risking your life to fill the gap.

"call……"

Jing Yuan let out a long breath.

He raised his head, looking at the shattered Scale Abyss Realm before him, and at the black flames pressing down from the sky.

His tone became unusually calm:

"After those two minutes..."

"If I still can't do it."

"You should take Xing-guniang and the others... and go."

"This is a crisis for the Immortal Ship, a calamity for Luofu."

"This responsibility should rightfully be borne by the people of Xianzhou."

"There's no reason for you passersby to be buried with them."

"Shall we go?"

Dan Heng looked at Jing Yuan.

His voice was deep, yet every word carried immense weight.

"I'm leaving..."

"Are you going to die?"

Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment.

Then.

He smiled.

That smile held a mixture of relief, helplessness, and above all, the composure of a general.

I am a general.

"To die on the battlefield is one's final destination."

Upon hearing this, Dan Heng instinctively turned around.

His gaze pierced through the billowing smoke and flames of war.

There.

Xing was sitting cross-legged.

He was holding that crumpled, tattered book in his hands.

He watched with great interest, his face showing both "tranquility" and "eagerness to learn".

He would even nod occasionally, as if he were contemplating some philosophy of life.

"I'm sorry, I might not be able to continue walking with you..."

Dan Heng gripped his spear tightly and stood before Jing Yuan:

"Come on, don't give up so soon."

"I'll stick with you... let's give it one more try!"

……

"Walk?"

"Shall we put it together?"

midair.

Huanlong let out a sharp, piercing laugh.

"What a deeply moving camaraderie!"

"pity……"

"General, you are far too optimistic."

"Do you still want to leave?"

"I already said..."

"Today, you will all die here!!!"

boom!!!

With her roar, the surrounding space began to collapse.

Countless black lotuses bloomed in the void.

"Convert them all into pawns!!!"

"Become part of the Legion of Destruction! Become my servant!"

Huanlong pointed a finger at Jingyuan:

"Let's start with you... General Luofu."

"I'm very curious..."

"What if the general of the immortal ship becomes a mere pawn who only knows how to kill..."

"How will the Immortal Boat react?"

"I think that would be very interesting, wouldn't it?"

Before he could finish speaking...

Huanlong tapped his finger.

"Buzz—!"

Suddenly, a huge golden lotus platform, exuding an aura of destruction, bloomed beneath Jing Yuan's feet!

The lotus platform seemed to come alive; its petals instantly closed, forming a golden cage!

"What?!"

Jing Yuan was shocked and wanted to slash it with his sword.

But the severely injured body simply couldn't keep up with the reaction.

"rise!"

The lotus platform carried Jing Yuan and flew directly towards Huanlong!

Dan Heng's eyebrows furrowed.

Without any hesitation.

Without any thought.

Driven by instinct, he leaped into the air!

"Don't even think about it!!"

He reached out and grabbed Jingyuan's shoulder.

Hold on tight!

I want to drag him off that damn lotus platform!

"Let go!!"

Jing Yuan roared in terror.

The only person on the field with fighting ability right now, and the only one who can help Xing and Sanyueqi escape, is Danheng!

If even Dan Heng gets arrested...

Then it's all really over!

"Danheng!! Let go!!"

Jing Yuan struggled desperately, trying to push Dan Heng away:

"I have my own plans!!!"

"Take them...and go!!!!"

"Tell Fu Xuan... that I died in battle! She'll have a way!!!"

but.

It's too late.

Huanlong watched this scene, laughing wildly and unrestrainedly:

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Since you can't bear to part with him..."

"Then let's follow him and become a pawn!"

"Buy one get one free, what a great deal!"

hum!

Another enormous lotus platform appeared in the air.

In an instant, Dan Heng was also trapped!

Click!

Golden shackles bound their limbs.

The two were fixed in mid-air, unable to move.

"Ugh..."

"Ugh!!"

A massive amount of destructive energy, like black venomous snakes, began to frantically burrow into their bodies through the shackles.

It erodes their meridians.

To corrupt their will.

pain.

That extreme pain of having one's soul torn apart and reshaped.

Dan Heng groaned, and blood spurted from the corner of his mouth.

His consciousness began to fade.

My vision started to go black.

The Dragon Lord's power within his body was resisting frantically, but it seemed so insignificant in the face of absolute power.

Is it... over?

In the last moments before losing consciousness.

With his last bit of strength, Danheng turned his head with difficulty.

He looked into the distance.

I looked behind that rock.

That person... the one he desperately wanted to protect.

star……

Run!

Forget about us...run...

however.

What came into his view...

……

【I see!】

Xing suddenly slammed his fist into his palm.

His face showed an expression that said, "I understand now."

That look in his eyes.

Clear.

Wise.

And...perverted.

Found it!

[Chapter 10 of "On the Influence of Severe Injury on the Evolution of the Demonic Body": The Five Senses Sealing Technique!]

[By damaging the auditory and visual nerves, the brain is forcibly cut off from the perception of the outside world!]

This tricks the brain, making the body believe it's in a near-death state!

[Thus...activating maximum potential!]

[That's brilliant!]

Xing looked at the illustrations in the book, her hands trembling with excitement.

She is so healthy now.

The power of abundance is too strong.

Regular self-harm is useless; it instantly restores health.

Since the body cannot be seriously injured.

Then...

Start with your senses!

As long as I can't hear or see, my brain will determine that I'm "about to die"!

At that time...

Hey!

Thinking about this...

Xing did not hesitate at all.

She tucked the book into her bosom.

"Click!"

To ensure the best results, she even broke the bones of two of her fingers first.

Sharp bone fragments were exposed.

then.

Pointing towards the depths of the ear piercing.

Hard...

With force...

It went in!

"Pfft!!"

This time.

It was pierced very deeply.

It pierced directly through the eardrum and even penetrated deeper into the nerve tissue.

"Sizzle—!!!"

moment.

The blood flowed like a tap that had been turned on.

Following her ears, eyes, nose, mouth...

A massive outpouring!

that moment.

Her entire face was covered in golden blood.

That was real...blood flowing from all seven orifices!

It was extremely tragic!

It was absolutely terrifying!

but.

Because of pain shielding.

And because they finally found a way to "become stronger".

On Xing's face.

Yet he still wore that relieved smile.

His face was covered in blood.

It was so eerie it sent chills down your spine.

……

……

midair.

Dan Heng is being eroded by destructive energy and is losing consciousness.

Just right.

I witnessed this scene.

"..."

boom!

This scene dealt a devastating blow to Dan Heng's mental state.

His pupils dilated to their maximum size in an instant.

They even forgot about the physical pain.

They forgot to breathe.

Suddenly, scenes of Ariello flashed through my mind.

According to Uncle Yang, Xing was able to survive that incident.

It's because there's a peculiar energy within her body.

It resembles a star nucleus, yet it's not quite the same.

Fierce and abundant!

It was this energy that pulled Xing back from the brink of death.

It can be detected by instruments.

This energy is constantly decreasing within the star.

In other words, the idea of ​​bringing the dead back to life is unheard of.

No one can guarantee that Xing will be able to recover after her next death.

Especially after this energy reaches zero.

"No……"

"don't want……"

Dan Heng's eyelids instantly cracked.

Two lines of bloody tears rolled down.

He struggled desperately, the chains digging into his flesh and bones, so deep that the bone was visible.

"star!!!!!!"

"Don't worry about me, run!!!"

Star (Deaf Person Limited Edition): [The book says... the next step is to peel off the skin and completely destroy the immune system?!]
