--- Chapter 163 ---
Lily''s cultivation soared above the Sovereign Profound Realm, breaking bottlenecks one after another. In terms of cultivation base, she''s still losing to Duhan.
However, her immense amount of profound energy alone couldpete with Duhan, who was 4th level of the Divine Tribtion Realm.
As their immense aura shed like colliding waves, Duhan arrived before Lily.
Lily raised her de of grass and shed the air.
Creak!
The screeching soundse from Duhan''s spear as Lily''s weapon sessfully parried it.[Yang Dragon Bulwark - Radiance]
A bright light suddenly appeared, covering the de of grass with a golden sheen.
"Not good!" Duhan was astonished.
"Toote!" Lily ignited her [Yang Dragon''s Bloodline] and called for a holy me. A golden me burst forth, engulfing Duhan''s whole body.
Duhan felt the intense heat and screamed in agony because the Yang or Light Attribute was his weakness. He is, after all, a death knight.
Lily calcted the distance between her and Duhan, "About six meters..."
"Let''s start."
[Yang Dragon Bulwark - Dragon''s Blight]
Lily stepped forward with illusory steps as her figure split into countless copies. However, unlike the previous technique, these clones seemingly possessed frightening strength.
Duhan''s body twitched from the sheer pressure because the clones summoned these golden halos that pointed at him. Each halo contained an intense blitz of holy me.
"Curse you-!" Duhan knew he couldn''t dodge. Even if he used Spatial Shift, it would be toote.
DING! BOOOOOOOM!!
Intense light beams concentrated into one spot, creating a golden sphere in the dark sky. For a moment, the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range experienced daylight again.
As Lily''s attack died down, Duhan''s damaged appearance was ''slowly'' revealed. His shadowy armor has burnt off by the light attribute, exposing a gray-colored skin tone and a hollow chest.
Surprisingly, Duhan was somehow lean behind all those armor pieces.
Duhan grumbled at the piece of his armor that turned into dust and swept by the night''s breeze. He is furious now.
"You tarnished bitch..." Duhan gazed at Lily coldly. His way of speaking also became more colorful.
"Woah, you kiss your mother with that mouth?" Lily sneered in response.
"I will fucking kill you!"
Duhan sped up to Lily''s position and created all kinds of weapons by conjuring darkness. He also wielded a morning star in his right hand and ymore on the other.
Lily reacted quickly, distancing herself from Duhan.
However, it''s proven useless because Duhan used Spatial Shift to chase after her.
''Well, I didn''t n to run in the first ce.'' Lilybined [Yang Dragon''s Bloodline] and [Grass Dragon''s Bloodline], synthesizing both blood flows into one path.
[Grass Dragon Record x Yang Dragon Bulwark: Woodlight Dragon''s Stigma]
Sunlight fed upon the grass.
And grass burned into lesser light.
Two concepts happened one after another in the span of milliseconds, causing the technique Lily used to alternate between green and golden light. When there is no dy between two operations, a new force is ''naturally'' created.
A deep green with golden gleam energy revolution started inside Lily''s body. It was weak but grew stronger each time Lily breathed.
Lily''s body blurred, and her hand vibrated beyond one''s vision, generating this spatial disturbance.
It''s simr to Xia Qingyue''s [Ocean Quake Symbols]. However, Lily''s attack didn''t destroy the space. It swallowed the whole thing.
[Woodlight Dragon Stigma - Endless Growth: Charred]
Lily knew her limit as she pressed her palm against the air, feeling the flimsy spatial fabric burnt upon her touch.
Duhan responded more fiercely, sting darkness energy with all his weapons. "Headless Knight''s Code: Flowing Cannon!" He roared at Lily.
Swoosh!
At first, Lily''s momentum pushed Duhan''s attack back.
However, Duhan wasn''t holding back a bit now. He''s still a bonafide 4th Level of Divine Tribtion Realm Powerhouse!
On top of that, don''t forget that he was a Kaiju. His physiology is different from that of humans.
"Remember, humans. What you faced is the power of Kaiju!" Duhan''s mocking voice echoed.
What happened next was an eruption of energy beyond the 4th level of the Divine Tribtion Realm.
There is no fancy shockwave or explosion as half of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range and jungle terrain over 6,900 miles evaporates into nothingness.
Countless cracks and holes appeared in the sky, revealing the depth of the void. The naturalw of Blue Pole Star tried to fix the spatial fabric, but the damage done was too much!
Cough! Cough!
Lily spewed a mouthful of blood.
In the end, she hasn''t reached level 21 perfectly, and her current strength is also temporary from absorbing Duhan''s Army and surrounding nature.
Yet Duhan couldn''tnd more damage after thatst sneak attack. She meant it when saying the headless Death Knight wouldn''t catch her off guard again.
Duhan umted the same momentum as before and said, "Human, tell me your name before I end your life..."
"Hehe, I don''t wanna." Lily wiped blood from her face.
"So be it, your funeral." The Death Knight swung his arm and caused yet another dark storm.
Lily''s expression paled as she screamed in hysteria, "God damn it! Are you done, Hong Guan?! I''m fucking dying here!"
Duhan''s attack was about to reach Lily''s face when a slender but scorching scale-covered arm grabbed the dark storm.
"Huh?" The Death Knight couldn''tprehend the sight before him.
It was none other than the red-haired woman who caught him off guard earlier with her domain ability.
However, her appearance has drastically changed.
Hong Guan is standing over 190 cm with fine green-purple dragon scales all over her body and bat-like wings on the back. Her long red hair has be longer and gained a dark tint. Her body looks no different than a humanoid dragon.
However, the most noticeable change is her face.
Half of Hong Guan''s face was ''thinly'' covered by this bone-scales mask that clung to her skin. On the mask''s eye socket, an intense purple me burned brightly. The other eye bleeds out, creating a tear-like crack on her fair skin.
"H-Hong Guan?" Lily was a bit afraid.
"Leave." Hong Guan nced at Lily briefly before returning her gaze to the headless Death Knight.
"Are you sure?" Even though Lily''s strength enhancement has gone, she can offset Duhan''s attack a few more times.
Hong Guan didn''t reply and released a unique draconic pressure that blew the surrounding crack and tears in spatial fabric to expand even more.
"Okay, okay, chill." Lily stomped the air and left with the area, returning to Freya''s side. The new Fairy Queen looked at Lily like she was an alien while she was a Hybrid Kaiju herself.
Freya worriedly stared at Hong Guan and asked, "Is it okay to leave her alone? Duhan is strong, extremely strongpared to what I know."
"She''s going to be fine." Lily crossed her arms and pouted.
"I''ve never seen her so mad before."
"Thest time Hong Guan was in such a state was when we wiped a sect to avenge her brother." After saying this, Lily shivered because the sight of the fiery Hong Guan surrounded by burned mountains and buildings was unforgettable.
Hong Guan crushed Duhan''s attack and moved.
Duhan stepped back instinctively because he felt a dangerous presence from Hong Guan.
"Headless Knight''s Code: Abyssal Sword." Duhan opened another portal, allowing a massive sword to poke out from it.
Watching the massive sword descend from the portal, Hong Guan stretched her hand and balled it into a fist.
If Duhan had a head, the following event would have made his jaws drop.
A purple mebusted and surrounded the portal. It condensed rapidly to Hong Guan''s clenching her fist, breaking the portal apart.
"Y-You... What are you?" Duhan was speechless and terrified.
"Shadow... Bride." Hong Guan''s cultivation soared under the very gaze of Duhan. From the peak of the Sovereign Profound Realm to the early stage of Divine Soul Realm.
She jumped a whole ''major'' realm into the second stage of Seven Divine Ways.
[Abyssal Storm Dragon''s Tactic - First Layer: Dragon''s Rise]
The might of Ancient Dragon overwhelmed the half-destroyed Heavenly Sword Mountain Range and the spatial fabric, sealing Duhan''s path from running away.
''Impossible!'' Duhan grimaced inside.
