Chapter 1689: Chapter 1293: Reinforcements

”Ugh... Wow!”

Long let out a muffled groan and spat out blood, his complexion growing even paler.

”So tough!”

Ling Xiao looked at the large patches of shattered golden scales and the gaping wounds on Long’s body, slightly frowning.

Even in this situation, with his Fourth Lock already activated, it was difficult to crush Long in one go. His Divine Dragon Body combined with Heavenly Defect Body had reached an alarming level of physical resilience.

He had used the Four Saints Unification move, and although injuries could recover rapidly with Holy Beast Divine Power, the state of shackles wouldn’t last much longer.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, forcibly enduring the tearing pain from within his body. A large mass of blood and black spirit light fused into dark red blood energy, boiling forth, all converging onto his fist!

”Blood Cry South Heaven!”

Ling Xiao charged out, his body enveloped in terrifying dark red blood flames, transforming into a Dark Red Vermilion Bird crashing onto Long. The terrifying high temperature erupting from his fist scorched and blackened the golden scales on Long’s chest visibly to the naked eye, until the fist crushed flesh inch by inch into Long’s chest.

At this moment, a faint golden light appeared deep in the bottom of Long’s eyes, making it difficult for Ling Xiao’s attack to penetrate his body.

Ling Xiao instantly realized that the resistance on his fist had increased considerably; Long’s already formidable physique seemed even more unyielding!

”Still resisting? Die for me!”

Ling Xiao roared angrily, the dark red blood energy around him thunderously surging, determined to pierce and kill Long with this direct punch!

At this moment, accompanied by a scorching aura, another figure darted in from the side, reaching Ling Xiao’s side in the blink of an eye.

”Hmm?!”

Ling Xiao’s expression changed, hastily raised his left hand and wrapped it in dark red blood flames, striking out...

”Boom!!”

Ling Xiao was suddenly knocked back, his Blood Cry South Heaven interrupted by this sudden attack. Looking up, he saw a black-haired youth standing before Long.

”Another one?” Ling Xiao furrowed his brows, assessing the newcomer.

The suddenly appearing black-haired youth glanced at Ling Xiao and then focused on his own right hand, which was showing some blood marks, clicking his tongue.

”Just that much and I got hurt? An astonishing physique indeed! No wonder even Long got beaten like this, tsk tsk, worthy of Great Flame Country’s Azure Dragon Throne...”

Long glanced at the black-haired youth before him, curling his mouth: ”I thought you’d wait until I got beaten to death before making a move...”

”Hehe, you misunderstood me. I just arrived, or how could I bear to watch my Divine General friend suffer such severe injuries without intervening... Besides, you’re not so easily beaten to death, are you?”

The youth smirked with shaded eyes, none other than Huan!

However, unlike the Earth Ring and Water Ring that Su Yuan encountered, this Huan had keen eyes and a mesmerizing aura, surrounded by radiant sunlight and Yang Power!

”Indeed, is he also a Divine General?”

Ling Xiao breathed heavily, intensely eyeing Huan chatting casually with Long, feeling a heavy weight.

This domain’s space is the Grey Realm’s home ground; Ling Xiao had anticipated enemy reinforcements.

He hadn’t expected the timing to be so unfavorable! Also, the reinforcement was another Divine General!

After briefly exchanging words, Long and Huan’s gazes fell onto Ling Xiao.

”Imperial Envoy Ling, my aid has arrived; it seems I am rather fortunate...” Long’s mouth curled upwards, seemingly pulling at his wound and clicking his tongue.

”This guy...”

Ling Xiao gripped his fists tightly, already feeling the aching and weariness due to his body’s overload, yet looking at the feeble aura of Long with a nearly scorched and caved-in chest, he felt quite unwilling.

”Having come this far, I must kill him!”

Murderous intent surged in Ling Xiao’s eyes, as Star Power surged into black water and dark light coiling around his body, readying to fight back once more!

At this moment, Ming Guang radiated, and the Fierce Sun blossomed!

Huan took a step, stomping and shattering the void, abruptly appearing before Ling Xiao, daylight flowing all over him, Yang Qi roaring, gathering the mighty Yang Gang Power, hurling a punch violently.

Ling Xiao snorted coldly: ”Looking for death!”

Previously caught off guard, he countered hastily, did that give you confidence?

No matter how worn he was, he was still in the Four Saints Shackles state! Ling Xiao raised his hand and countered with a punch.

”Boom!”

A huge explosion, black and white spirit lights reverberated far and wide.

Ling Xiao’s figure shuddered, involuntarily stepping back.

Huan retreated even more, his palm, arm, and body all showing marks from Ling Xiao’s punch in the Four Lock state!

Yet, Huan’s entire body was like a fiercely burning Great Sun Melting Furnace, daylight swirling around him, Yang Qi gushing, with Yang Power surging turbulently.

The minor injuries inflicted by Ling Xiao quickly healed, bolstered by the vigorous upward vitality from Yang Power, matching the recovery effect of the Vermilion Bird Divine Power from the Four Saints Technique.

”Divine Generals, truly troublesome...” Ling Xiao looked on solemnly.

”Hehehe, come again!”

With a hearty laugh, Huan charged once more, enveloped in sunlight and blazing fiercely.

”Boom boom boom...!”

Huan and Ling Xiao engaged in rapid exchanges mid-air, clashing intensively!

In terms of physique and punch power alone, Ling Xiao, with his Fourth Lock activated, even surpassed Long slightly, even as the power of the shackles grew waning, he was still stronger than Huan, repeatedly shattering and bursting with flame light off Huan’s body.

Yet Huan, acting as a melting furnace, with Yang Power surging, despite being constantly repelled and injured, remained undaunted, becoming increasingly courageous in battle, his fierce eyes restraining Ling Xiao.

During these moments, far off, Long’s body glowed with golden light and pulsating blood energy, his injuries rapidly scabbing and healing at a speed visible to the naked eye...
