School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 1895 - 1981: Outer Domain Battlefield 18
Previously on School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master...
Facing the overwhelming might of the Void Ancient Dragon, Chen Nan pushed his divine power to its absolute limit, yet the descending force proved too immense to withstand.
His blood and Qi churned violently within him. At this critical juncture, the Blood Dragon Order began to act erratically, siphoning the power of his divine soul, an act that nearly provoked Chen Nan to spew blood in sheer fury.
"Little Tower, if you don’t emerge now, I’m as good as dead," Chen Nan bellowed in exasperation.
Meanwhile, Blood Kill, Blood Blade, and the Fatty and Skinny Supremes were fully occupied, besieged by the Void Ancient Dragon and unable to divert any attention to Chen Nan's plight.
"Damn it, Little Tower is just a hair's breadth away from locating the chakra within this Domain Lord Treasure Bone! Can’t you hold on a little longer with the Golden Phoenix Winged Spear?"
The Little Tower, with a huff, revealed it had been perfectly capable all along, merely choosing laziness while engrossed in studying the Treasure Bone, thus neglecting Chen Nan.
"Blast it all! The Golden Phoenix Winged Spear's power currently rivals the Blood Dragon Order. Why don't you suggest employing the Heavenly Reversal Demon Technique for a fight to the death?"
Chen Nan cursed furiously, while the Little Tower seemed to grow progressively calmer.
Fortunately, Ou Yifei had already been dispatched to safety. Though the Void Ancient Dragons were still in pursuit, managing to escape this immediate vicinity would guarantee their complete safety.
Chen Nan, possessed of resilient skin and a sturdy physique, wouldn't mind sustaining severe injuries.
"Alas, Little Tower permits you to gain enlightenment amidst the throes of life and death. Numerous ancient sages achieved transcendence in similar dire circumstances. Perhaps this ordeal will allow your body to break through to the Half-step Supreme realm?"
Chen Nan's physical prowess and the Heavenly People Clan avatar he was currently utilizing were on par, both residing at the Late Stage of Heavenly Monarch.
"Damn it, stop giving me the runaround! Just tell me what I need to do right now!" Chen Nan demanded, his frustration mounting.
"What else can you do, you brat? You still have those 'birdmen' to deal with later. Conserve your strength and surrender yourself to the embrace of Little Tower!"
The Haotian Tower erupted in hearty laughter. In the very next instant, Chen Nan vanished into the void. A miniature version of the Little Tower materialized, intercepting a claw strike from the Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon. The force of the dragon's attack was deflected, allowing the Haotian Tower to utilize the rebound momentum to traverse through the void and make a hasty retreat into the distance.
The Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon observed the location where the Haotian Tower had vanished. A torrent of flames erupted from its maw, stretching for tens of thousands of feet.
However, the Haotian Tower's void-walking ability transported it millions of miles away, far beyond the dragon's pursuit capabilities.
With any trace of its prey completely eradicated, the Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon returned to its prior position in the void. It let out a furious roar, summoning its power to launch an all-out assault on the Four Supremes, intending to annihilate them within the star domain.
"It appears Brother Nanchen has fallen. A true pity; he shouldn't have charged out just now," Blood Kill Supreme lamented, shaking his head, now himself grievously wounded.
Blood Blade offered a bitter laugh, "Who could have foreseen such a turn of events? Encountering this Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon alone signifies certain death. It had concealed its true strength far too effectively earlier. This creature is undoubtedly a formidable ancient dragon, dwelling in the Late Stage of the Supreme Second Realm."/>
"Nanchen cannot possibly be dead so swiftly. His Blood Gourd has yet to be unveiled; an intense aura emanates from that Blood Gourd," stated Fat Supreme, who had previously observed Chen Nan's Blood Gourd up close.
"Indeed, that fellow is an anomaly, unlikely to be dispatched easily. Perhaps he managed to escape," mused Thin Supreme aloud.
"Let us fervently hope so."
Blood Kill and Blood Blade remained somewhat unconvinced by Fat Supreme’s assessment.
At that precise moment, a transmission reached Blood Kill’s mind: "Blood Kill, within the ring I bestowed upon you that day lies a talisman from a companion. You must utilize this talisman without delay. It will enable you to break through to the Third Level Supreme and effectuate an escape within a short timeframe."/>
"Boss Blood, your kindness is immeasurable. We all miss you dearly; hasten your return! We never imagined you'd be enjoying such comforts while still remembering us!"
Fat Supreme, overjoyed at this unexpected lifeline, exclaimed with excitement. Hall Master Shangguan Xue had ingeniously concealed such a potent talisman within Blood Kill’s ring.
"Haha, Xue Zhan witnessed your Life Lamp flicker, sensing your peril, and entrusted me with this message. Given the immense distance separating us, I am powerless to intervene directly. Just remember, strictly avoid engaging in combat immediately after your breakthrough, as a period of vulnerability with diminished power will follow."/>
"Boss Blood, we at the Blood Martial Hall of course comprehend this crucial principle. Rest assured!"
Thin Supreme chuckled. He had initially harbored ambitions of slaying a Void Ancient Dragon once his own cultivation advanced and presenting it as spoils. However, upon further consideration, he deemed escape the paramount objective. Sharing the talisman amongst the four individuals presented a significant risk; any miscalculation could result in the loss of multiple lives.
With great haste, Blood Kill infused power into the talisman. In the following instant, a palm-sized talisman materialized before the quartet, its crimson energy surging into the bodies of the Four Supreme Beings.
The talisman vanished in the blink of an eye, yet their cultivation realms began a rapid ascent.
"Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon, one day, this Fatty Grandfather will take your head," Thin Supreme declared before departing.
As the cultivation realms of the Four Supreme Beings were elevated, the Void Ancient Dragons at the First Layer of Supreme found themselves unable to contend. They felled several Void Ancient Dragons and, employing the Blood Shadow Mysterious Steps, dissolved into the void as mere blood shadows.
The Four Supreme Beings, on the brink of collapse and filled with dread, traversed tens of millions of miles after their realm ascension, halting their flight only in the vicinity of the Void Stone Forest.
What previously took fifteen minutes was now accomplished in half the time, their speed considerably improved. However, upon nearing the Void Stone Forest, they immediately sensed their internal power draining at an alarming rate.
Their power swiftly declined from the Third Layer Supreme, plummeting to the Second Layer Supreme without pause.
Ten breaths later, their current strength had diminished to merely the Late-stage Supreme First Layer Heaven.
This forbidden technique, utilizing a talisman to burn one's essence blood, bore a resemblance to the Sky Demon God Transformation Technique employed by Little Heavenly Demon. Following its use, one's realm would regress to a level lower than normal.
Nonetheless, recovery was merely a matter of time and distinct from the arduous process of re-cultivation.
"Damn it, we lost the gamble this time, suffering heavy losses," Thin Supreme lamented in frustration. "Not only did we lose, but we also misplaced our new Blood Dragon Envoy."
Blood Kill and Blood Blade exchanged glances and sighed, "The strength of the Pure Fire Void Ancient Dragon is far superior to Brother Nanchen's. I fear he is likely deceased, his realm was too low after all..."
Despite their hope that Chen Nan had survived, reality presented a grim picture.
"Hahaha, you four near-death wretches worry about the survival of others? Even if that brat is alive or dead, the moment he reappears, I shall personally escort him to the Netherworld."
Amidst resounding laughter, Jin Muchen and the other four supremes from the Xuantian Sect materialized in the distant void. The dozens of Heavenly Monarchs who had accompanied them were nowhere to be seen.
The five supreme beings from the Xuantian Sect hovered in the void, regarding the four supreme beings of the Blood Martial Hall as if they were already deceased.
"Originally, we intended to attack after you had hunted the Void Ancient Dragon, but it seems you proved unworthy, your dog lives ended prematurely by the Void Ancient Dragon..."
Jin Muchen was beaming with satisfaction.
His cultivation surpassed that of Xue Zhan from the Blood Martial Hall, yet their previous intense duel had yielded no advantage for him. Today, the opportunity to eliminate the Four Supreme Beings of the Blood Martial Hall was indeed a divine providence.
