sān zhǒng yán sè bù tíng liú zhuǎn ， jiāng yāo huà hòu de lì zhuǎ bāo guǒ qǐ lái 。 huá jǐ dào mó yǐng ， yě bù zhī dào shì shén me shù ， běn shēn bìng bú shì hěn qiáng ， què yǒu rú fū gǔ zhī qū yī yàng 。
三种颜色不停流转，将妖化后的利爪包裹起来。华几道魔影，也不知道是什么术，本身并不是很强，却有如跗骨之蛆一样。
Three colors kept swirling, enveloping the demonified claws. The magical shadows of Huajǐ were indistinct; it was unclear what technique they used, but despite their not being particularly powerful, they seemed like parasitic worms.
rán ér bù guǎn xīn zhōng rú hé hèn gǔ mó ， liǎng rén xiàn zài ， què shì yī tǐ liǎng pò ， gēn yī tiáo shéng shàng de mǎ zuó chà bu duō ， suǒ wèi tóng dān gòng jì ， duì fāng luò bài ， tā de xià chǎng yě hǎo bù liǎo xǔ duō ， suǒ yǐ zhǐ néng zhè me zuò 。
然而不管心中如何恨古魔，两人现在，却是一体两魄，跟一条绳上的蚂昨差不多，所谓同丹共济，对方落败，他的下场也好不了许多，所以只能这么做。
However, no matter how much hatred Lin Xuan felt towards the ancient demon, at this moment, he and Huajǐ were one soul in two bodies, akin to ants on a string. The saying 'sharing the same dantian' meant that if his opponent fell, his fate would not be much better. Thus, he had no choice but to do as such.
shēng sǐ jiù zài zhè yī kè 。 gǔ mó yī è ， liǎn shàng yě bù yóu de lù chū le yì wài zhī sè 。 zhàn dòu de shí hòu ， tóng yàng yào dǒng de jìn tuì qǔ shě ， zhè gǔ mó zuò chū lái de jué zé ， zhì shǎo cóng biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， méi yǒu rèn hé de miù cuò 。
生死就在这一刻。古魔一愕，脸上也不由得露出了意外之色。战斗的时候，同样要懂得进退取舍，这古魔做出来的抉择，至少从表面上看，没有任何的谬错。
Life or death hung by a thread. The ancient demon was taken aback and showed signs of surprise on its face. In battle, one must know when to advance and retreat; the choices made by this ancient demon seemed flawless from the surface.
pēng pēng pēng de shēng yīn hái zài bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ” jǐn jǐn yí gè hū xī zhī jiān ， tā yǐ jīng huī chū le chéng bǎi shàng qiān quán 。
嘭嘭嘭的声音还在不停传入耳朵”仅仅一个呼吸之间，他已经挥出了成百上千拳。
Puff, puff, puff—Lin Xuan's ears were still ringing with the sounds. Within just a breath, he had already struck hundreds, if not thousands, of punches.
bù zhǐ xiōng kǒu xiǎo fù ， shèn zhì lián miàn zhào dōu yǒu ， zhǐ yǒu yǎn bù ， cái lù chū hú xíng de yī xiǎo kuài wài yì 。
不止胸口小腹，甚至连面罩都有，只有眼部，才露出弧形的一小块外异。
Not only did his chest and abdomen take hits, but even his face mask was targeted; only his eyes revealed a small arc-shaped opening.
rán ér gǔ mó liǎn shàng bìng méi yǒu yì wài zhī sè ， gāng cái kàn jiàn le tiān fèng shén mù ， tā jiù yǐ jīng cāi dào lín xuān shí yǒu huì yāo huà zhī shù 。
然而古魔脸上并没有意外之色，刚才看见了天凤神目，他就已经猜到林轩十有会妖化之术。
However, the ancient demon showed no signs of surprise. After seeing the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes, Huajǐ had guessed that Lin Xuan would have the ability to demonify.
“ xiǎo zi ， qù sǐ ！” lín xuān de yòu shǒu ， biàn wèi le jiān lì de fèng zhǎo ， nà zhàn jiǎ jū rán zài tóng yī shí jiān ， fā shēng le xiāng tóng de biàn huà ， jǐn jǐn zài zhǐ tou chù kāi kǒng ， ràng fēng ruì de zhǐ jiǎ tàn chū 。
“小子，去死！”林轩的右手，变为了尖利的凤爪，那战甲居然在同一时间，发生了相同的变化，仅仅在指头处开孔，让锋锐的指甲探出。
"Brat, die!" Lin Xuan's right hand transformed into sharp phoenix claws. The war armor also changed at the same time, with holes in the fingertips allowing his sharp nails to protrude.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou shǎn guò ， rán ér chū rén yì liào de shì qíng fā shēng le 。 hǒu ！ fǒu zé liǎng rén lián hé ， jí biàn shì tā ， yě fēi cháng de jí shǒu 。
脑海中念头闪过，然而出人意料的事情发生了。吼！否则两人联合，即便是他，也非常的棘手。
Thoughts raced through his mind, but something unexpected happened. Roar!
nà jiān yìng de dùn pái biǎo miàn ， jū rán liú xià le yí gè yí gè quán tou de lào yìn xiàng 。 zì cóng tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù ， lín xuān jì yù tè shū ， lì shén tōng dōu yuǎn yuǎn shèng guò tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě ， yuè jí tiǎo zhàn duì tā ér yán ， jiù fǎng fú jiā cháng biàn fàn ， zhè me duō nián lái hái shì dì yī huí ， bèi tóng jiē cún zài yā zhe dǎ dé nà me cǎn 。
那坚硬的盾牌表面，居然留下了一个一个拳头的烙印象。自从踏上修仙之路，林轩际遇特殊，力神通都远远胜过同阶修仙者，越级挑战对他而言，就仿佛家常便饭，这么多年来还是第一回，被同阶存在压着打得那么惨。
Otherwise, if they had joined forces, even he would have found it very troublesome.
gǔ mó de quán tou ， biàn dé yuè fā de xùn sù líng lì ， ér lìng yī cè ， wàng tíng lóu zé bèi duì fāng suǒ huàn huà chū lái de jǐ dào mó yǐng fēn shēn suǒ zǔ ， yī shí jiān ， gēn běn jiù téng bù chū shǒu lái gěi lín xuān yǒu lì de zhī yuán bāng zhù 。
古魔的拳头，变得越发的迅速凌厉，而另一侧，望亭楼则被对方所幻化出来的几道魔影分身所阻，一时间，根本就腾不出手来给林轩有力的支援帮助。
The hard shield's surface left imprints of punches. Since embarking on the path of cultivation, Lin Xuan's experiences were unique; his strength and powers far surpassed those of his peers at the same stage. Challenging higher ranks was like a daily routine for him, but this was the first time he had been so heavily outmatched by an equal.
gè gè jī pò ， wèi cǐ jí biàn shì fù chū yì diǎn dài jià ， yě jué duì zhí de 。 yǎn kàn lì zhuǎ yǔ quán tou jiù yào xiāng chù ， tū rán ， lín xuān de shēn shàng ， què bèng fā chū yào yǎn de wǔ cǎi guāng yùn lái le 。
各个击破，为此即便是付出一点代价，也绝对值得。眼看利爪与拳头就要相触，突然，林轩的身上，却迸发出耀眼的五彩光韵来了。
The ancient demon's punches became increasingly swift and ruthless, while Wangting Lou was blocked by several demonic shadows from its opponent, leaving no hands to aid Lin Xuan effectively.
gǔ mó gǎn dào yī sī kǒng jù ， dàn hěn kuài ， yǎn zhōng jiù shǎn guò jué rán zhī yì 。 bái chī xiǎo zi ， zhè shí hòu nǐ jiù shì xiǎng duǒ ， yě yǐ jīng lái bù jí 。
古魔感到一丝恐惧，但很快，眼中就闪过决然之意。白痴小子，这时候你就是想躲，也已经来不及。
Breaking them one by one was worth it. As the claws and fists were about to touch, suddenly, a dazzling array of five colors flashed around Lin Xuan.
“ yí ， zhàn jiǎ shù ！” wū …… hōng ！ shuāng bì bǎi dòng ， yùn quán rú fēng ， gōng jī bú jiàn fēn háo de jiǎn ruò ， fǎn ér yuè fā de kuáng bào xiōng měng 。
“咦，战甲术！”呜……轰！双臂摆动，运拳如风，攻击不见分毫的减弱，反而越发的狂暴凶猛。
The ancient demon felt a sense of fear but quickly showed resolve in his eyes. Foolish boy, even if you try to dodge now, it's too late.
dǎ suì le yòu chóng xīn róng hé ， jiù yǔ bù sǐ zhī shēn chà bu duō 。 bù guò zuì yǐn rén zhù mù dì ， hái shì shǒu bì de zhàn jiǎ 。
打碎了又重新融合，就与不死之身差不多。不过最引人注目的，还是手臂的战甲。
"Eh, War Armor Technique!" Rumble!
zài zì jǐ tiān yuán mó zǔ miàn qián ， yǐ wéi píng jiè zhe qū qū zhàn jiǎ shù ， jiù kě yǐ niǔ zhuǎn tuí shì me ？ nà huǒ yàn sān sè liú lí ， rú tóng xiān huā yì bān de měi lì ， kě tā zài lǐ miàn ， què xiù dào le jí dù wēi xiǎn de qì xī 。
在自己天元魔祖面前，以为凭借着区区战甲术，就可以扭转颓势么？那火焰三色琉璃，如同鲜花一般的美丽，可他在里面，却嗅到了极度危险的气息。
Swinging his arms, he punched with the wind, and the attacks did not weaken; instead, they became more ferocious.
qiáng ruò xuán shū ， lín xuān lián sī háo huán shǒu zhī lì yě wú 。 pī lǐ pā lā de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。 guǒ rán bù kuì shì shàng jiè mó zǔ ， jí biàn yī lóu fēn hún yě bù róng hū shì qīng rǔ 。
强弱悬殊，林轩连丝毫还手之力也无。噼里啪啦的爆裂声传入耳朵。果然不愧是上界魔祖，即便一偻分魂也不容忽视轻辱。
Shattering and fusing again was akin to having an immortal body. However, what drew the most attention were his arm war armors.
zhè xiǎo zi zuì hòu de fáng yù yě bèi pò chú ， nà tā de sǐ qī yě yǐ jīng dào le 。 wǔ sè líng guāng shǎn guò ， tā de yòu shǒu ， dùn shí biàn huà chū yī zhī lì zhuǎ lái le 。
这小子最后的防御也被破除，那他的死期也已经到了。五色灵光闪过，他的右手，顿时变化出一只利爪来了。
Thinking that relying on a mere War Armor Technique could turn the tide in front of his Heavenly Essence Demon Ancestor? The three-colored flames were as beautiful as flowers, but he sensed extreme danger within them.
tiān zuò niè ， yóu kě huó ， zì zuò niè ， nà jiù ràng běn zūn sòng nǐ shàng huáng quán lù méi yǒu bǎ wò ， zì jǐ qǐ gǎn ná xìng mìng kāi wán xiào de 。
天做孽，犹可活，自作孽，那就让本尊送你上黄泉路没有把握，自己岂敢拿性命开玩笑的。
The disparity in strength was significant; Lin Xuan had no chance to retaliate. Crackling sounds filled his ears. Truly, it was no wonder that a demon ancestor from the upper realm could not be underestimated even with a fragment of its soul.
rán ér shū shēng de liǎn shàng ， què mǎn shì bù gàn yǔ yuàn dú ， zhè
然而书生的脸上，却满是不干与怨毒，这
With this boy's final defense broken, his death sentence was sealed. Five-colored spiritual light flashed, and his right hand transformed into sharp claws.
“ fén tiān mó huǒ ” bìng bú shì tā zì jǐ xiū liàn chū lái de shén tōng ， kě yǐ xiǎng yòng jiù yòng ， nà shì tā zài shàng jiè de shí hòu ， yī cì yì wài suǒ de ， zhǐ yǒu nà me yī duǒ ， yòng yì diǎn kě jiù shǎo yì diǎn de 。
“焚天魔火”并不是他自己修炼出来的神通，可以想用就用，那是他在上界的时候，一次意外所得，只有那么一朵，用一点可就少一点的。
Heavenly retribution, one may still survive; self-inflicted doom, let me send you to the underworld. He dared not risk his life with such uncertainty.
lín xuān què shí jīng huāng shī cuò ， rán ér zǐ xì kàn ” tā de móu dǐ shēn chù ， què shǎn guò yī sī jī fěng zhī sè ， xiào dào zuì hòu cái shì shèng lì zhě ” gǔ mó shí lì gù rán bù ruò ， dàn wèi miǎn yě tài tuō dà le ” zhēn jiāng zì jǐ dàng chéng chū chū máo lú de cài niǎo me ？
林轩确实惊慌失措，然而仔细看”他的眸底深处，却闪过一丝讥讽之色，笑到最后才是胜利者”古魔实力固然不弱，但未免也太托大了”真将自己当成初出茅庐的菜鸟么？
However, the scholar's face was filled with resentment and hatred. This
zhāng kāi kǒu ， pēn chū yī zǐ hóng sè de mó huǒ 。 nán dào shuō ， duì fāng yì zhí shì zài shì ruò ， mù dì shì xiǎng yào jiāng zì jǐ piàn rù xiàn jǐng lǐ 。
张开口，喷出一紫红色的魔火。难道说，对方一直是在示弱，目的是想要将自己骗入陷阱里。
"Fierce Heaven Demon Fire" was not a technique he could use at will; it was an accidental gain from the upper realm. There was only one of it, and using even a little would reduce its power.
zhì yú xīn zhōng ， dāng rán shì bù tíng de zhòu mà le 。 zhè zhàn jiǎ de shè jì zé ， kǎo lǜ kě shì zhōu xiáng dào le jí chù 。
至于心中，当然是不停的咒骂了。这战甲的设计责，考虑可是周详到了极处。
Lin Xuan indeed appeared panicked, but upon closer inspection, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. The victor is the last to laugh. The ancient demon's strength might not be weak, but he seemed too overconfident—treating him like an inexperienced rookie?
yì wài guī yì wài ， tā de biǎo qíng ， què fēn háo yě bù luàn 。 yī tuán měi lì de huǒ yàn què zài lín xuān de shǒu zhǎng zhōng fú xiàn ér qǐ 。
意外归意外，他的表情，却分毫也不乱。一团美丽的火焰却在林轩的手掌中浮现而起。
Opening his mouth, he spat out purple-red demonic flames. Could it be that the opponent had been feigning weakness all along, trying to lure him into a trap.
zhè xiǎo zi què shí bǐ xiǎng xiàng de jiǎo huá ， zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià ， jū rán yǐn cáng yǒu hòu shǒu ， bù guò jiāng jì jiù jì nǎ yǒu nà me hǎo nòng ， rú guǒ zhè jiù shì tā de yǐ zhàng ， nà yī jiù miǎn bù liǎo bài wáng 。
这小子确实比想象的狡猾，这种情况下，居然隐藏有后手，不过将计就计哪有那么好弄，如果这就是他的倚仗，那依旧免不了败亡。
In his heart, he cursed endlessly. The design of this armor was meticulous.
wú shēng wú xī ！ rán ér tā de liǎn shàng què shǎn guò yī sī qí yì zhī sè 。 gǔ mó tóng kǒng wēi suō ， bù zhī dào wèi shén me ， zài kàn jiàn zhè tuán huǒ yàn de shí hòu ， tā xīn dǐ mò míng qí miào de shēng qǐ yī sī jǐng zhào lái le 。
无声无息！然而他的脸上却闪过一丝奇异之色。古魔瞳孔微缩，不知道为什么，在看见这团火焰的时候，他心底莫名其妙的升起一丝警兆来了。
Despite the surprise, his expression remained calm. A beautiful flame emerged from Lin Xuan's palm.
gǔ mó méi tóu yī tiāo ， chǒu lòu de miàn róng shàng lù chū yì wài zhī sè ” bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè ， yǐ jīng méi yǒu shí jiān qù jì xù shēn jiū le 。
古魔眉头一挑，丑陋的面容上露出意外之色”不过此时此刻，已经没有时间去继续深究了。
This boy was indeed more cunning than expected; in such circumstances, he had hidden a backup plan. However, turning the tables would not be that easy. If this was his sole reliance, he still faced defeat.
dāng rán ， zhè jǐn jǐn shì jiǎ xiàng ， měi bèi dǎ suì yī cì ， gǔ mó de běn tǐ ， liǎn sè jiù nán kàn yī fēn ， xiǎn rán zhè shù ， duì tā de shāng hài yě shì jí dà de ， bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè ， nǎ lǐ guǎn dé le xǔ duō ， xiān chū quán lì ， jiāng lín xuān miè shā le zài shuō 。
当然，这仅仅是假象，每被打碎一次，古魔的本体，脸色就难看一分，显然这术，对他的伤害也是极大的，不过此时此刻，哪里管得了许多，先出全力，将林轩灭杀了再说。
Silent and unassuming, but his face showed signs of strangeness. The ancient demon's pupils constricted for some reason; when he saw this flame, an inexplicable warning arose in his heart.
hū de yī xià ， jiāng nà shuò dà de quán tou bāo guǒ 。 quán tou rú yǔ diǎn yì bān de mì jí ， fǎng fú mǎng shé yì bān yào jiāng lín xuān tūn shì xià qù 。
呼的一下，将那硕大的拳头包裹。拳头如雨点一般的密集，仿佛蟒蛇一般要将林轩吞噬下去。
The ancient demon raised its ugly face with surprise, but there was no time to delve deeper now.
kě cǐ kè ， xiǎng yào biàn zhāo yě yǐ jīng lái bù jí 。 yī tào xùn lì de zhàn jiǎ ， zài qí shēn tǐ biǎo miàn fú xiàn ， jiāng qí zhěng gè ， yán yán shí shí de bāo guǒ zài qí jiān 。
可此刻，想要变招也已经来不及。一套殉丽的战甲，在其身体表面浮现，将其整个，严严实实的包裹在其间。
Of course, it was just a facade. Each time the shield was shattered, the ancient demon's expression grew more grim. Clearly, this technique inflicted significant harm on him. But at that moment, he could not afford to think much; he had to use all his strength to kill Lin Xuan first.
bú yòng shuō ， zhèng shì fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué de shù 。 nǐ yāo shù yòu rú hé ， biàn shì zhēn zhèng de yāo zú ， shēn tǐ de jiān rèn chéng dù yòu zěn me kě néng yǔ tā men shèng zú xiāng bǐ ne ？
不用说，正是凤舞九天诀的术。拟妖术又如何，便是真正的妖族，身体的坚韧程度又怎么可能与他们圣族相比呢？
With a sudden movement, the large fist enveloped everything. The punches were as dense as raindrops, aiming to swallow Lin Xuan whole like a snake.
fǎng fú tóng luó bèi dǎ pò ， āi míng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， cǐ dùn sōu de yī xià biàn xiǎo le ， wǎng xié cì lǐ fēi shè ér gǔ mó de liǎn shàng ， mǎn shì xīng * fèn zhī sè ， mó qì fān yǒng ， nà hēi sè de quán tou ， tǐ jī mǎ shàng zēng dà le yí bèi yǒu yú ” shàng miàn suǒ sàn fà chū lái de yā lì ， ràng rén xīn jīng bù yǐ 。
仿佛铜锣被打破，哀鸣声传入耳朵，此盾嗖的一下变小了，往斜刺里飞射而古魔的脸上，满是兴*奋之色，魔气翻涌，那黑色的拳头，体积马上增大了一倍有余”上面所散发出来的压力，让人心惊不已。
But it was too late to change tactics now. A magnificent set of armor appeared on its body, tightly wrapping him.
bù duō ， dàn què néng què bǎo shì xiàn bú huì bèi dǎng zhù 。 dào dǐ shì yī xiǎo xiǎo de lí hé ， jīng yàn bù duō ， tā zhè me zuò ” jiǎn zhí yǔ zhǎo sǐ chà bu duō 。
不多，但却能确保视线不会被挡住。到底是一小小的离合，经验不多，他这么做”简直与找死差不多。
It was none other than the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique's technique. Even if he used拟妖术, how could his body's resilience compare to their holy race?
pēng pēng pēng de shēng yīn bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， què shì wū jīn lóng jiǎ dùn biǎo miàn de líng guāng bèi dǎ dé yáo yè shǎn shuò 。
嘭嘭嘭的声音不停传入耳朵，却是乌金龙甲盾表面的灵光被打得摇曳闪烁。
Like a copper gong being broken, mournful sounds filled the air as the shield shrank and flew off diagonally. The ancient demon's face was filled with excitement; its black fist doubled in size, exuding immense pressure that left everyone nearby trembling.
wū jīn lóng jiǎ dùn jǐn guǎn jiān gù ” dàn zuì zhōng yě shì yǒu jú xiàn de 。 nǐ yǒu hòu shǒu ， nán dào běn mó zūn jiù zhǐ néng rèn rén zǎi gē ， tā de xiōng kǒu yī zhèn mó hú ， suí hòu nà bái miàn shū shēng de liǎn kǒng zài cì fú xiàn ér chū 。
乌金龙甲盾尽管坚固”但最终也是有局限的。你有后手，难道本魔尊就只能任人宰割，他的胸口一阵模糊，随后那白面书生的脸孔再次浮现而出。
But it wasn't enough to obstruct his vision. He had just separated from a small entity, lacking experience, so he did this—almost like suicide.
jiù suàn xiàn jǐng yòu rú hé ， yī qū qū de rén jiè xiū xiān zhě ， cái gāng mài rù lí hé ， nán dào nài hé dé le zì jǐ me ？
就算陷阱又如何，一区区的人界修仙者，才刚迈入离合，难道奈何得了自己么？
Puff, puff, the sounds of the black war armor's spiritual light flickering continued.
lín xuān liǎn shàng mǎn shì jīng nù jiāo jiā zhī sè ， sì hū yǐ yǒu xiē dǐ dǎng bú zhù 。 zhè zhǒng dōng xī ， rú guǒ fàng dào líng jiè ， dào yě suàn bù shàng xī qí ， rán ér rén jiè de liàn jiǎ zhī ， bú shì zǎo yǐ shī chuán ？
林轩脸上满是惊怒交加之色，似乎已有些抵挡不住。这种东西，如果放到灵界，倒也算不上稀奇，然而人界的炼甲之，不是早已失传？
Despite its strength, the Black Dragon Shield eventually had its limits. You have a backup; can I be slaughtered at will? Lin Xuan's chest was blurry as the white-faced scholar's face reappeared.
bān mén nòng fǔ ！ jù xiǎng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lì zhuǎ yǔ gǔ mó de quán tou duì pèng ， suǒ guò zhī chù guā qǐ yī dào dào hài rén de gāng fēng ， lì liàng de bō wén sì shè ， nà kě pà de wēi lì ， ràng yuǎn chù de wàng tíng lóu dōu kàn dé xīn jīng bù yǐ 。
班门弄斧！巨响声传入耳朵，利爪与古魔的拳头对碰，所过之处刮起一道道骇人的罡风，力量的波纹四射，那可怕的威力，让远处的望亭楼都看得心惊不已。
Even if it were a trap, what could an ordinary human realm cultivator do to him, having just entered the separation stage?
lín xuān de tuí shì ， sì hū gēn běn jiù wú wǎn huí de 。
林轩的颓势，似乎根本就无挽回的。
Lin Xuan's expression showed a mix of shock and anger, seemingly struggling to hold on. Such things might not be rare in the spirit realm, but hadn't the armor-casting techniques been lost long ago in this world?
Blatant show-off! A loud noise echoed as the claws clashed with the ancient demon's fist. The force created terrifying gusts of wind that rippled outwards, leaving everyone nearby trembling.
Lin Xuan's declining situation seemed irrecoverable.
Three colors kept swirling, enveloping the demonified claws. The magical shadows of Huajǐ were indistinct; it was unclear what technique they used, but despite their not being particularly powerful, they seemed like parasitic worms.
However, no matter how much hatred Lin Xuan felt towards the ancient demon, at this moment, he and Huajǐ were one soul in two bodies, akin to ants on a string. The saying 'sharing the same dantian' meant that if his opponent fell, his fate would not be much better. Thus, he had no choice but to do as such.
Life or death hung by a thread. The ancient demon was taken aback and showed signs of surprise on its face. In battle, one must know when to advance and retreat; the choices made by this ancient demon seemed flawless from the surface.
Puff, puff, puff—Lin Xuan's ears were still ringing with the sounds. Within just a breath, he had already struck hundreds, if not thousands, of punches.
Not only did his chest and abdomen take hits, but even his face mask was targeted; only his eyes revealed a small arc-shaped opening.
However, the ancient demon showed no signs of surprise. After seeing the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes, Huajǐ had guessed that Lin Xuan would have the ability to demonify.
"Brat, die!" Lin Xuan's right hand transformed into sharp phoenix claws. The war armor also changed at the same time, with holes in the fingertips allowing his sharp nails to protrude.
Thoughts raced through his mind, but something unexpected happened. Roar!
Otherwise, if they had joined forces, even he would have found it very troublesome.

Lin Xuan's declining situation seemed irrecoverable.
