CHAPTER 899: CHAPTER 675: EACH THEIR OWN GREAT BATTLE

The battle at the Mountain Lord level is truly terrifying, often involving the shifting of mountains and rivers, and the reversal of heaven and earth. Ordinary warriors do not even dare to approach, for they would be swept away by the residual power in an instant.

As the Red Gold Mountain Master, Huohuo, is now determined to defend his territory and uphold his dignity, he faces two foes alone. He intends to withstand the peak strike from the Immortal Xuan Yuezi and forcefully sever Xiang Xiangzi’s head.

But unfortunately, he failed.

Xiang Xiangzi, though disheveled and quite battered, managed to avoid this deadly blow using the Cloud-Riding Technique.

At the same time.

The Heavenly Dao Seal hovering above the Red Gold Mountain Master Huohuo’s head came crashing down.

This strike was enough to flatten the land over a hundred miles.

Know that the Heavenly Dao Seal is a top-grade Dao Artifact, its power far surpassing the Shattered Star Long Spear in Xiang Xiangzi’s hands.

The mighty seal descending like a mountain, carrying with it boundless Divine Light, entwined with Dragon and Tiger Power, and infused with Heaven and Earth Power, now landed upon Huohuo.

Huohuo couldn’t dodge in time; to kill Xiang Xiangzi, he could only withstand the blow head-on. Therefore, he roared out, unleashing the mighty power within his bloodline, the fiery cloud patterns around him glowing with dazzling brilliance. Each spark shone as hot as flames, and amidst the intertwining firelight, it seemed he donned a suit of armor forged from blazing fire.

The flames adhered to the Red Gold heavy armor on his body, complemented by his formidable physique, elevating his defense to its maximum at this moment.

"Boom!"

A tremendous explosion echoed between heaven and earth.

The descending Heavenly Dao Seal abruptly halted in mid-air, its hanging talismans gradually crumbling, and no matter how the Dragon and Tiger Power roared, it couldn’t crush that mighty figure within the blazing fire.

The Red Gold Mountain Master Huohuo resembled a divine being from myth, with unparalleled power, he withstood the descending heavens.

"Are you kidding me, a flesh body withstands my Heavenly Dao Seal?" Xuan Yuezi lightly bit her lip, finding it unbelievable.

This is a top-grade Dao Artifact, the Heavenly Dao Seal.

With her peak Three Flowers Realm strength, its power is terrifying; cultivators at the same level would be instantly killed without a Dao Artifact of equivalent level, but the opponent withstands it with his body.

"Don’t give him a chance to catch his breath, Xuan Yuezi, use the Big and Small Ruyi Skill to enhance me." Xiang Xiangzi transmitted a message over, then, bathed in bloodthirstiness, transformed into a streak of light, holding the Shattered Star Long Spear, and swiftly charged towards the Red Gold Mountain Master.

At this moment, the Shattered Star Long Spear gathered beams of extreme brilliance.

This is the River Dividing Land Method.

Worried that the Dao Artifact might not be sharp enough, Xiang Xiangzi further reinforced it with Tao Skill, boosting its power while unleashing the strength of Ten Dragons and Ten Tigers, pushing his killing intent to the extreme.

"Alright." Xuan Yuezi snapped out of her daze, both controlling the Heavenly Dao Seal and executing the Big and Small Ruyi Skill.

Instantly.

The Shattered Star Long Spear, initially merely a few meters long, suddenly enlarged, transforming into a gigantic spear over tens of meters long, its power simultaneously doubling.

The Big and Small Ruyi Skill is not merely about size change; its power and mana can also amplify and strengthen, though this Tao Skill is difficult to cultivate and extremely mana-consuming to cast, generally, Xuan Yuezi does not wish to perform it.

But now, with the opponent enduring the Heavenly Dao Seal, such an opportunity is fleeting; exhausting the opponent’s strength is beneficial, and if lucky, could lead to his slaying, which would be most welcome.

At this moment, the Red Gold Mountain Master watched the enormous spear speeding towards him, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Enduring the Heavenly Dao Seal was not painless for him, akin to bearing dozens of mountains; though uninjured, he fought under significant weight, greatly suppressing his strength.

Facing this strike, the Red Gold Mountain Master Huohuo equally couldn’t evade; he could only shout and choose to withstand it head-on.

He could only trust in his physique and the Red Gold heavy armor he wore.

And this was the price he had to pay after failing to forcibly kill Xiang Xiangzi.

The Shattered Star Long Spear, bearing supreme might, attacked, its sharpness capable of cleaving the sky and tearing the earth.

Boom!

Another fearsome explosion echoed.

The Shattered Star Long Spear instantly struck Huohuo’s chest, its terrifying sharpness accompanied by Dragon and Tiger Power, and augmented by the River Dividing Land Method, ran rampant upon him. Yet, even then, it could not destroy the heavy armor he wore.

Armor forged of Red Gold truly was extraordinary; such a terrible attack upon it left mere scratches, while the spear’s impact location, though dented, couldn’t penetrate his physique.

"Is the Red Gold forged armor really impenetrable?" Seeing this scene, Xiang Xiangzi was irate.

The world’s materials were overly blessed; his opponent’s heavy armor was not even a magic artifact, merely formed by smelting Red Gold into armor form, yet wielded strength not inferior to top-grade defensive Dao Artifacts.

Moreover, the opponent’s armor is exceptionally thick, at least seven or eight centimeters thick, equivalent to over a dozen layers of red gold stacked together.

This strange metal is enough to block most of her attacks.

However, even when the attack was blocked, the immensely powerful force was transmitted through the armor to Mountain Lord Huohuo. Bearing the Heavenly Dao Seal and withstanding the Shattered Star Long Spear, even this Mountain Lord had a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Obviously, his internal organs were injured by the shock.

"I am the Red Gold Mountain Master, my majesty is not something you can challenge. Get lost." At this moment, the Red Gold Mountain Master roared again, still having the strength to counterattack. The muscles in his hands bulged like iron, and a battle axe, carrying unmatched power, struck the Shattered Star Long Spear.

The collision of weapons sent sparks flying all across the sky like a meteor shower.

Xiang Xiangzi felt the Shattered Star Long Spear in her hand shake violently. This force even shattered her mana binding, and then she saw the massive spear being forcibly struck away. After the Big and Small Ruyi spell was broken, the spear rapidly shrank back to its original form.

Now the Shattered Star Long Spear had two unrecoverable axe marks on it, with several cracks appearing as well. In addition, the sharp spearhead was damaged. If it were struck by the opponent a few more times, this Dao Artifact might shatter.

"I, the Immortal, will crush this muscle monster." Xiang Xiangzi didn’t care about the Shattered Star Long Spear being struck away because she needed to seize every battle opportunity.

In this brief moment, she instantly cloud rode, landing on the Heavenly Dao Seal. As soon as she landed, the power of Ten Dragons and Ten Tigers erupted again, making the already incredibly heavy Heavenly Dao Seal even heavier.

Mountain Lord Huohuo’s body paused; at this moment, he was struggling to hold on, unable to prevent himself from sinking downward.

Xuan Yuezi had sweat beading on her forehead at this moment. Although she wasn’t directly engaged in combat, she was desperately consuming mana to maintain the Heavenly Dao Seal and coordinate with Xiang Xiangzi. She genuinely worried about being completely drained of mana and dying here.

So she swiftly formed a spell and cast the Heaven and Earth Qi Gathering Technique.

The spiritual energy from all over gathered to her, finally providing some relief.

Xiang Xiangzi did the same, while unleashing her Dragon and Tiger Power, forming a spell to absorb nature’s spiritual energy, relying on the Heavenly Dao Seal to suppress this Red Gold Mountain Master. They were not trying to crush him to death; they just hoped to exhaust a lot of his strength this way.

After all, they could replenish their mana with nature’s spiritual energy, whereas their opponent could not eat or rest.

However, while this battle was taking place here.

Elsewhere.

Divine Blood Warrior Beigong had also set his sights on Li Yi.

But both of them consciously distanced themselves from this battlefield, not wanting to be caught up in the magnitude of this battle. Otherwise, they would have to guard against powerful enemies casually attacking during combat.

Li Yi glanced at this Divine Blood Warrior named Beigong.

Although the opponent was not of the Divine Blood Lineage, he was a genuine Mountain Lord level power, also donned in indestructible armor made of red gold, wielding a spear entirely forged from red gold.

Just these two weapons alone would start at a hundred thousand gold each, only the Red Gold Mountain Master had the resources to forge weapons out of red gold.

Li Yi’s weapon was simple, the Treasure Moon Bow, with only one Black Gold Arrow; most of the other arrows were of superior magic artifact grade.

At a glance, he knew that superior magic artifact grade arrows could not penetrate the opponent’s red gold armor. To kill him required relying on the Black Gold Arrow, taking him by surprise to eliminate him.

"A Divine Blood Lineage member, with potential to become a master of a domain in the future, has now impatiently come to provoke the authority of the Red Gold Mountain Master. You are too hasty. Today, let me take your head and make it into a fine wine vessel. I will drink wine from your head in the future," Beigong laughed arrogantly at this moment.

He could sense from the aura that this Divine Blood Lineage member, though powerful, was not yet at the Mountain Lord level.

Even though the opponent was inferior to himself, he would not hold back.

For the warrior daring enough to challenge a Mountain Lord, he would use his strongest power to kill the opponent. Only this way could he uphold his majesty and intimidate other enemies.

Li Yi said nothing, but firmly gripped the Treasure Moon Bow. At the same time, the power of Three Dragons and Three Tigers erupted, quickly drawing the bow open. A magic artifact grade arrow immediately readied to strike, directly aiming at this Divine Blood Warrior, Beigong.

"Your bow and arrow are too weak, unable to kill a Mountain Lord level Divine Blood Warrior," Beigong, seeing such a provocative gesture from the opponent, instantly flew into rage, immediately swinging the red gold spear, charging forward.

Though not as strong as the Red Gold Mountain Master, Li Yi was no peak Three Flowers Realm cultivator, and for him, this was also a formidable foe.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the Treasure Moon Bow suddenly released a magic artifact grade arrow, shooting it at a high speed, directly towards Beigong’s forehead.

Beigong was well prepared. The moment Li Yi released the arrow, he immediately raised his arm to block, clearly anticipating that the opponent would target his head.

And Beigong’s arm was protected by a red gold arm guard, with astonishing defense.

Although a superior magic artifact grade arrow shot with immense power from the Treasure Moon Bow, it was ultimately of magic artifact grade material. Upon contact with the opponent’s red gold arm guard, it couldn’t penetrate at all, and shattered upon impact.

The magic artifact arrow was thoroughly destroyed.

While the opponent merely had a slight pause, still entirely unscathed.
