第三千八百六十七章 画龙点睛

The explosion's power was suppressed, but Lin Xuan’s crisis had not ended. Although the black threads were terrifying, they represented only a small portion of the threat. They could be considered an advance guard for probing purposes.

紧接着,本体黑色光环带着无上魔威狠狠撞击过来。

The pressure from the demon was shocking, enveloping the icy mountain like a blanket. Lin Xuan would not easily yield; blue light flashed across the surface of the mountain as rays of brilliance shot out.

But to no avail.

As soon as they touched the black aura, it was as if ice met fire, instantly dissipating into nothingness. The aura refused to stop, expanding and contracting wildly, its light blinding, turning the void before it into emptiness.

Its power was not just a change in the color of heaven and earth; it seemed intent on devouring this space entirely.

Continuous blue light flowed from the surface of the ice mountain, the once formidable coldness now appearing incredibly fragile. It was like trying to stop a car with an arm.

Under the demon’s onslaught, it quickly melted away. Although the Heaven Fire of Illusions wasn’t ordinary, it ultimately failed to block the opponent, consuming much of its self-destructive power in the process.

But this alone was not enough to turn danger into safety; the remaining power was still formidable. With a thunderous force, it rushed towards Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan’s eyes narrowed. Before him stood only the protection of the玄龟龙甲盾 (Black Tortoise Dragon Armor Shield).

The last one!

If this were broken through, his situation would be dire.

Although Lin Xuan was confident he wouldn’t perish, severe injuries seemed inevitable.

This was something he could not bear, especially since they were both at the late-stage transmigration. How could it be… injured by him?

Lin Xuan took a deep breath; the blue light on the surface of the玄龟龙甲盾 (Black Tortoise Dragon Armor Shield) swirled ceaselessly. A "pop" entered his ears as he spat out fresh blood.

The blood immediately turned into a mist, absorbed by the shield like a whale drinking water.

Dragon roars echoed, and the black tortoise’s form became clearer. Silver lines appeared on its scales and shell, with an aura of immortals surrounding them. These lines rearranged themselves to form a Taiji diagram.

They rotated continuously, with the yin-yang interplay creating countless simulations. The Four Symbols Formation, the Nine Palaces Diagram… it was impossible to describe in words…

The only feeling was disorientation.

With all his effort, Lin Xuan pushed the power of the玄龟龙甲盾 (Black Tortoise Dragon Armor Shield) to its peak.

Though the process seemed complex, it took mere moments. Lin Xuan used every ounce of strength, and the remaining explosion’s shockwave rushed in close.

Despite the layers of consumption, this residual power was still formidable. It collided with the green lighted Taiji diagram.

Rule powers surged out, turning the void into two starkly different colors that continuously transformed. Terrifying spatial rifts appeared everywhere, emitting shocking gales that sliced through the void like a knife through butter.

But this was just the shockwave…

The pressure Lin Xuan faced was unimaginable.

He would not yield; there was no retreat now. In the Red Silk Dust Array, he had nowhere to hide and could only endure.

His mana rapidly depleted, his face turning pale.

It didn’t matter. Such situations saw mutual consumption. As long as he persisted, he could turn danger into safety.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened. The remaining explosion’s shockwave suddenly converged in the middle, its master having perished. These creatures seemed to have life, transforming into a monstrous entity.

Blade-like and sword-like, it was over a hundred feet long, with a ghost face appearing on the handle, resembling the bald demon lord.

Its ferocity made one take notice.

Lin Xuan’s eyebrows raised as he finally understood why his opponent was so tenacious. This wasn’t just an explosion; it also carried boundless resentment.

Though the bald demon lord had perished, his执念 (obsession) remained. He hated Lin Xuan to the core and hoped to completely annihilate him here by combining his执念 with his power.

This was far more terrifying than a simple explosion. The怨气 (resentment) controlled the self-destruction, focusing its power on one point rather than diffusing it.

Now, it had transformed into an odd demon sword.

A fierce howl echoed as it slashed down on Lin Xuan.

"Thud," the sound entered his ears as the sky seemed to boil like a pot of water. Multiple rule powers mixed and struck the Taiji diagram’s surface.

Suddenly, sharp rays shot out, and a narrow crack appeared in the center of the diagram. The demon sword had already sliced through the false dragon and black turtle behind it.

"Damn!"

Lin Xuan was both shocked and angry as mana poured out endlessly.

The true dragon raised its head; golden light suddenly appeared in its previously blank eyes. The entire dragon came alive.

Dragon Eye!

The true dragon’s claws extended, striking at the demon sword. A shocking spiritual pressure rose, but there was no sound or sight of impact.

The scene was eerie—golden and black intermingling as two different forces struggled fiercely…

No clear winner!

The black tortoise also raised its head. Its movements were slow yet ancient, extending its front claws forward.

As it moved, the Taiji diagram on its shell rapidly spun, repairing the cracks. Another powerful force joined the struggle.

"Boom!"

In just a few moments, Lin Xuan felt as if centuries had passed. Finally, an explosion echoed, filled with primordial energy, and a divine light shone brightly. Blackness dissipated, leaving only the ghost face, which seemed unwilling but ultimately vanished.

"Phew!"

Lin Xuan exhaled deeply, having turned danger into safety. The entire process, though not long—less than half a stick of incense—was filled with twists and turns that were hard to describe.

The level of peril was among the top three in his experiences.

What a close call!

This was Lin Xuan’s deepest feeling. Despite the turmoil, he had managed to turn danger into safety. The fact that the opponent’s self-destruction hadn’t injured him at all was enough for him to be proud.
