Chapter 1080: Chapter 1077: Fierce Contest
In Luo Feng’s palm, there was a red jade bead.
The jade bead was about the size of a baby’s fist, slightly transparent, containing a clear strand of golden light twisting and turning within.
Upon closer examination, the golden light revealed scales all over its body, with two horns protruding from its head, resembling a vividly lifelike dragon image.
After a glance, Luo Feng quickly put the jade bead into the Washing Dragon Ring; there were more important matters to attend to now.
Looking ahead, Luo Feng’s pupils slightly contracted.
Beside the seven-inch snake body of the Single Horned Red Cloud Python, Lu Xiao Yun and two skilled experts under the Crown Prince were in a stalemate, each desiring to obtain the python’s demon core.
"This Single Horned Red Cloud Python was slain by me. I’d suggest you two leave."
Lu Xiao Yun held the sword vertically in front of him, his cold gaze directed at the black-faced middle-aged man and the white-haired elder, blocking their path.
The white-haired elder frowned slightly, saying, "Lu Xiao Yun, everything in the world speaks of reason. We discovered this Single Horned Red Cloud Python first and exerted great effort to severely injure it. You’re just here to reap the benefits; how can you claim to have killed it?"
The black-faced middle-aged man and the white-haired elder stood side by side, exuding lethal intent, and shouted angrily:
"Elder Yang, no need to waste words with him. Together, we’ll kill this brat and see if he still dares to be arrogant, whatever top ten new dragons, soon you’ll become a dead snake!"
As the voice fell, the black-faced middle-aged man let out a long roar, a vast aura burst forth from his body, and he slashed directly, the terrifying saber light splitting the canyon in two, enveloping Lu Xiao Yun.
"Just you two. Get lost!"
Lu Xiao Yun shouted coldly, the treasured sword gathering a red flame gigantic sword, wielding an unstoppable terrifying sword momentum, shattered the saber light with one strike, and still had leftover strength to charge at the black-faced middle-aged man.
The white-haired elder’s brow furrowed, knowing that this battle was inevitable. His right hand shrank back, stirring the air in front of him to form a spiral vortex, which he then suddenly launched, causing the sword light to collapse and disappear.
"Kill!"
The black-faced elder was enraged, taking a step forward, his entire body shrouded in true qi, the silhouette accompanied by layer upon layer of saber light shooting towards Lu Xiao Yun, wherever he passed, the ground explosively parted, creating a crack several meters wide.
The white-haired elder hovered in the air, his clothing moving without wind, seemingly with a light and airy demeanor yet imparting a heavy as mountain impression, throwing a punch, a black fist gang as large as a dark cloud, shrouding the sky, causing the air of this space to surge, splitting the ground into large cracks, radiating in all directions.
"You’re courting death!"
Lu Xiao Yun’s face turned somber, his eyes filled with deep murderous intent.
The demon core of the Single Horned Red Cloud Python was within reach yet unattainable, igniting an evil fire within his heart, as the robust Yuan Qi relentlessly infused into the treasured sword, his clothes flying backwards, directly striking out a sword.
Hiss!
The gigantic sword qi, as large as a mountain, stretched several hundred meters long, bathed in a faint golden glow under the sun, resembling a masterpiece divine weapon forged from red gold, simultaneously attacking the two incoming foes.
Boom!
When the three distinctly different forces collided, a formidable sound rang out within the canyon, as if countless thunderbolts had exploded, the heavens and the earth resonated in an instant, the impact generating vortexes of air swirling everything within the canyon, spiraling upwards, including the segment of snake body containing the demon core.
The next moment.
Lu Xiao Yun and the other two were knocked back repeatedly.
Opportunity!
Seeing the snake body flying into the air, Luo Feng’s eyes flashed, without hesitation, he extended his palm, thick Yuan Qi surged forth, creating a terrifying suction, pulling the snake body as large as a hill towards him.
"How dare you!"
Lu Xiao Yun’s face turned ashen, he slashed out a sword while levitating.
Hiss!
The razor-sharp sword qi cut through the space between Luo Feng and the snake body, severing the suction.
Luo Feng’s brow furrowed, without hesitation, he stomped the ground into a crack, performing the Sky Cloud Step to its extent, his silhouette soaring into the sky.
Lu Xiao Yun and the other two turned pale, disregarding anything else, they pushed their Qinggong to the limit, rushing towards him.
Swipe!
Performing the Sky Cloud Step to its limit, Luo Feng’s silhouette flickered like lightning, flashing several times in the air, closing in on the snake body, ready to slice it open and obtain the demon core.
"Dare take what’s mine, Lu Xiao Yun. Die!"
At this moment, a voice rang out nearby, a sword light pierced through the air.
Luo Feng was already alert, fire Saber Gang accumulating on Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber.
"Slash!"
Without even looking, Luo Feng swung a strike to the left.
The saber light flashed through the air, precisely clashing with the attacking sword light.
With a pop, the sword light shattered, revealing Lu Xiao Yun’s silhouette, his eyes locking onto Luo Feng with incredible sharpness, murderous intent rampant.
"Red Flame Fiery Life Seizing Flash!"
Lu Xiao Yun shook his wrist, his silhouette on the spot suddenly became illusory, with a sword light remaining between heaven and earth.
This sword light was exceptionally condensed, its speed was indescribably fast, slicing through the void like thunder light fierce fire, drawing a red line across the sky, appearing instantly in front of Luo Feng.
Luo Feng was startled to his core, the sheer terror of the situation made him abandon the nearby Single Horned Red Cloud Python carcass, his silhouette flickered, sidestepping more than ten paces away.
Hiss!
The sharp sound of breaking wind resounded, the flame flashed beside Luo Feng silently, as an abyss appeared on the cliff behind him, the depth unfathomable.
Lu Xiao Yun hadn’t expected the person before him to dodge his strike, astonished yet unwavering, Yuan Qi bursting from his left hand as he turned and pressed a palm towards Luo Feng.
Luo Feng furrowed his brow, Yuan Qi surged throughout his body, meeting the attack with a fist.
Bang!
Fist met palm, collapsing the air around them, exploding with a series of thunderous booms.
At that moment, the white-haired elder and black-faced middle-aged man arrived.
"Die!"
This time, the black-faced middle-aged man was boiling with rage, seeing the two in a standstill, he stepped forward, his treasured blade bursting forth a gigantic saber light, enveloping both Luo Feng and Lu Xiao Yun.
Luo Feng and Lu Xiao Yun’s gaze sharpened simultaneously, Yuan Qi erupted towards each other, with a bang, Yuan Qi exploded, their silhouettes each jumping back.
Hiss!
The gigantic saber light flashed past between them, slicing into the nearby segment of snake body.
Rip!
The segment of snake body was sliced through mid-air, torrential blood rain pouring down.
Amid the blood rain, a dazzling seven-colored light stood out.
"Demon core!"
Noticing the seven-colored light, the four present all glanced sharply, each executing Qinggong, shooting towards the light.
In the distance, the Crown Prince within the sword array paused his breath, involuntarily clenching his fists.
Swipe! Swipe!
The sound of breaking wind was piercing, with Luo Feng and Lu Xiao Yun having the highest Qinggong cultivation, almost simultaneously rushing into the blood rain.
The two exchanged glances, sensing deep hostility from each other’s eyes, each accelerating towards the seven-colored light.
At this moment, Luo Feng had already seen the seven-colored light clearly, it was a demon core the size of a fist.
Entirely red, the demon core emitted strands of seven-colored hues on its surface, exceedingly strange.
