"Taste this—my power after advancing to Unity Realm... Annihilation Slash!"
With a fierce shout, Lei Ling'er swung her lightning sword downward.
The sword, crackling with thunder, tore through the air like a divine judgment, instantly striking toward the mighty warrior wielding a massive warhammer.
"A mere lightning spirit dares act so arrogantly before the great Nine-Star lineage? Die!"
The hammer-wielding warrior roared in fury. Starry radiance erupted around him, and behind his back, eight burning celestial stars emerged, their imperial flames surging skyward as he brought his hammer down with earth-shattering force.
BOOM!
The lightning sword clashed with the warhammer, sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield. Lei Ling’er was blasted backward, while the warhammer-wielding warrior tumbled across the ground, coughing up multiple mouthfuls of blood.
"Damn that Cursed Spirit Blood Raven! It’s suppressing my bloodline, interfering with my soul, and making my star power sluggish. Otherwise, I’d have crushed you like an insect with a single blow!" He wiped the blood from his mouth and cursed furiously.
WHOOSH!
A sudden flash of starlight flickered beneath his feet—he vanished instantly, activating his Starcloud Step. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the Cursed Spirit Blood Raven.
"World-Ending Fire Lotus!"
Before he could strike, a brilliant, multicolored lotus bloomed before him and slammed toward his face.
BOOM!
Reacting on instinct, he raised his warhammer to block, but the explosion of flames was too violent. His hammer, superheated in an instant, smashed into his own chest with a searing impact.
TSSSSSS!
Agony tore through his body. His chest—already torn open by Long Chen—was now scorched by his own burning warhammer, sending plumes of smoke into the air.
He howled in pain, wildly swinging his hammer to force Lei Ling'er back just as she was about to strike again.
"This guy is insanely strong!"
Lei Ling’er’s expression darkened. Even after suffering a devastating blow from Long Chen and being suppressed by the Blood Raven’s curse, he still possessed such terrifying strength.
"Big Brother Long Chen said that aside from that venomous woman, this guy is the strongest opponent here. But so what? If we work together, we’re taking him down today!"
Huo Ling'er’s hands wove seals as she snorted coldly.
BZZT!
Behind her, a divine tree towered into the sky. Countless Golden Crows and Jade Rabbits soared forth, intertwining lunar and solar flames as they charged toward the warhammer-wielding warrior.
"What in the hell—these flames…?!"
His face twisted in shock. He could hardly believe what he was seeing—this fire spirit wielded both Lunar Flame and Solar Flame simultaneously.
Even with his monstrous physique, these flames were unbearable, and in his wounded state, the pain was even worse.
WHOOSH!
Gritting his teeth, he gripped his warhammer. The eight celestial stars behind him blazed with divine radiance, their vast imperial might fusing with the power of the cosmos. No longer holding back, he unleashed his full strength.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Golden Crows and Jade Rabbits exploded one after another as his warhammer crushed them. Suddenly, a massive ancient tree appeared in front of him. Without hesitation, he swung his hammer with full force.
WHOOSH!
His strike hit nothing but air.
In that split-second opening, Huo Ling'er materialized like a phantom, her palm thrusting toward his chest.
BZZT!
Just as she was about to land a decisive hit, his armor erupted with celestial energy, forming a protective Starry Battle Armor around his body.
BOOM!
Huo Ling’er’s palm strike landed, but instead of injuring him, the terrifying star power rebounded, sending her flying. Her arm nearly shattered from the impact.
"Careful! It’s Starry Battle Armor!"
Lei Ling'er caught Huo Ling'er midair, steadying her before whispering a warning.
"Forcing me, Jiao Xing, to activate my Starry Battle Armor? You can rest easy in death."
Jiao Xing’s aura surged like a volcanic eruption, distorting the very fabric of the world. By revealing his name, he was announcing their impending doom.
The activation of his ultimate trump card meant he was ready to fight to the death.
"Buy me some time!" Huo Ling'er said.
Lei Ling'er nodded. Sparks of lightning flickered around her before she vanished into thin air.
BOOM!
A bolt of lightning struck Jiao Xing, but it barely left a mark on his armor, only causing a few weak sparks.
"With my Starry Battle Armor activated, your attacks are nothing but an itch!" Jiao Xing sneered. As Lei Ling'er’s lightning attack approached again, he didn’t even bother using his hammer—instead, he simply punched forward.
BOOM!
The lightning shattered into pieces, but Jiao Xing quickly realized—this wasn’t Lei Ling'er’s real body.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
One after another, lightning strikes rained down on Jiao Xing, forming brilliant Thunder Blossoms on his armor.
At first, he ignored them. His focus was locked onto finding Lei Ling'er's true body to end her with a single blow.
But soon, he sensed something amiss.
The Thunder Blossoms weren’t just harmless sparks—they were embedding a mysterious force into his armor.
"Too late to realize now!"
Lei Ling'er’s voice echoed across the battlefield. Countless lightning runes flared up across Jiao Xing’s armor.
"Thunder Spirit Array—Detonate!"
BOOM!
The battlefield erupted as the Thunder Blossoms detonated in a deafening explosion. Jiao Xing staggered, his Starry Battle Armor flickering—though still intact, its brilliance dimmed noticeably.
"Tch. All that effort, and you still barely scratched me."
Despite his mocking words, Jiao Xing’s voice was laced with rage. He had been tricked, and his armor’s defensive power had been weakened.
He had underestimated her, and now he was paying for it.
He glared at Lei Ling’er, who was now visibly exhausted. The attack had drained her tremendously.
BZZT!
Sensing her weakness, Jiao Xing locked onto her with a terrifying killing intent. Starcloud Step activated—he instantly appeared in front of her, his warhammer hurtling toward her skull.
But Lei Ling’er… smirked.
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, a hand shoved her aside.
Huo Ling'er stepped forward. The towering flames around her had vanished. Even her imperial pressure was gone. Her face was pale—weak.
But her eyes burned with determination.
"Try this—my power after merging all flames into one... World-Ending Fire Lotus!"
BZZT!
A tiny fire lotus, no larger than a fist, left her palm and floated toward Jiao Xing.
In that instant—
Jiao Xing’s entire body tensed, his instincts screaming at him.
Then—
A blazing sun erupted before his very eyes.
