Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Hanging by a Thread

“Brother Feng!”

“Grand Commander!”

Liu Qingyang, Miao Qingqing, and the soldiers were extremely anxious, fighting off disciples of the Tianyun Sect while looking towards Feng Wuchen in panic.

“Don’t mind me!” Feng Wuchen shouted with effort.

“Today is the day you die!” Ao Tian sneered viciously.

Ao Tian’s attacks were relentless, and in just a moment, Feng Wuchen had sustained more than a dozen sword wounds, blood flowing incessantly, his complexion growing paler.

“It seems there’s no need for me to act. Feng Wuchen won’t last much longer,” Gu Qingxuan said with a slight, cold smile from high above, watching Feng Wuchen with no power to resist.

Duan Tian Hun’s expression was grave as he felt incredibly worried, but he was powerless, unable to break the array or defeat Gu Qingxuan.

Feng Wuchen, a monstrous genius, was very important to the Empire, the future of the Yanhuo Empire, and moreover, the Empire’s Grand Commander.

“Boom!”

Just as Duan Tian Hun’s worries intensified, Gu Qingxuan suddenly launched an attack, appearing in an instant and struck Duan Tian Hun’s chest with his palm, the fearsome force sending Duan Tian Hun flying.

“Nonsense! To attack by stealth!” Duan Tian Hun gritted his teeth in anger, glaring at Gu Qingxuan.

Gu Qingxuan sneered, “To fight with the Sect Master, yet you dare to be so careless. How can you blame the Sect Master for launching a surprise attack?”

Duan Tian Hun’s face was clouded, his gaze swept towards Ao Tian inside the Tianyun Sect. He was worried, “I cannot break the killing array, and Feng Wuchen is about to be unable to hold on. With my strength, I can’t possibly kill Gu Qingxuan. It’d be good enough if I can save my own life. What should I do?”

As a Tianyuan Realm expert like Duan Tian Hun, although his strength wasn’t as great as Gu Qingxuan’s, it was impossible for Gu Qingxuan to kill him.

Duan Tian Hun, being the monarch of the Empire, possessed absolute strength.

Ao Tian was recognized as the top genius of the Tianyun Sect, and naturally, he had his fearsome side. Now that he had complete control over the power of the Skywolf Beast, Ao Tian had become even more terrifying.

“Boom!”

“Pfft!”

After a series of over a dozen sword strikes, Ao Tian’s final blow sent Feng Wuchen flying. Feng Wuchen vomited blood, his injuries worsening.

Feng Wuchen’s face was very pale, and even with a strong physique, the dozen or so sword wounds caused him unbearable pain.

“Xiao Xiao has been gone for so long, she should have rescued Father and the others by now,” Feng Wuchen thought inwardly, but still, he saw no sign of Ling Xiaoxiao’s arrival.

The Qing Yun Execution Array was so terrifying that even if they were rescued, they probably couldn’t escape.

Feng Wuchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took a few deep breaths to suppress the turbulent qi and blood within him, and said coldly, “The power of the Skywolf Beast is indeed extraordinary, but still…”

“But what?” Ao Tian asked curiously.

Feng Wuchen coldly responded, “Although I do not know how you obtained the power of the Skywolf Beast, I do know that even if you can control this power now, you won’t be able to maintain it for long.”

“Not able to maintain it for long?” Ao Tian, with a face full of disdain, declared coldly, “I understand my own strength better than anyone. Since I can control this power now, I can maintain this state forever!”

Pausing for a moment, Ao Tian continued, “Even if I cannot maintain it for long, it will be enough to kill you, but that’s impossible.”

“You can try!” Feng Wuchen responded resolutely.

“Killing you is as easy as flipping my hand!” Ao Tian bellowed angrily, holding a long sword as he dashed forward again, his speed still terrifying.

Ao Tian appeared in an instant, about to thrust his sword. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically as he sensed an even faster sword thrusting towards his chest.

“This is the movement technique used to kill Disciple Fu Yun!” Ao Tian was shocked, and he quickly twisted his body aside to dodge.

The moment Ao Tian landed, he pushed off the ground with the tip of his toe and retreated rapidly, wary of the instantaneous movement technique.

However, as Ao Tian stepped back, his face changed dramatically again, sensing a dangerous presence approaching from behind.

Turning his head, Ao Tian saw Feng Wuchen slashing a sword towards him at high speed, as swift as a specter.

“Whoosh!”

Before Feng Wuchen’s thrust came, Ao Tian rapidly vanished from sight.

Yet what horrified Ao Tian even more was that just as he reappeared, a sword was already resting on his neck, as if it had appeared out of thin air.

The sword was none other than Feng Wuchen’s Fiery Blade!

With a cold stare at Ao Tian, Feng Wuchen solemnly declared, “You consider your speed superior, yet you are unaware that no matter how fast you are, there is always a pattern to your attacks. And as for speed, I have absolute confidence.”

“This is absurd! I refuse to believe I can be outmatched in speed!” Ao Tian roared furiously.

“Instantaneous Movement over Thousands of Miles!”

Powered by the strength of the Skywolf Beast, Ao Tian thundered out, executing his movement technique.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

“Hiss hiss hiss!”

In the plaza, the two of them darted about with blinding speed, their figures barely visible, mere blurry shadows moving. No matter where Ao Tian darted, no matter how terrifying his speed, Feng Wuchen was always able to appear right beside him in the blink of an eye. Unbeknownst to Ao Tian, Feng Wuchen left a trail of sword wounds on him with each encounter.

With the Fiery Blade pointed at Ao Tian’s heart, Feng Wuchen coldly stated, “The movement technique of Tianyun Sect is merely this.”

“What sort of movement technique is this!” Ao Tian glared at Feng Wuchen almost spitting fire, furiously demanding an answer, his rage nearly bursting his lungs.

The sword wounds on his body were no fewer than Feng Wuchen’s, the scorching pain spreading throughout his body, worsening his injuries.

Feng Wuchen did not answer, instead staring frostily at Ao Tian.

Instantaneous Movement was just that terrifying! As one’s cultivation grew more formidable, the range of Instantaneous Movement extended further!

With the rich combat experience of the Evil Dragon, and in combination with Instantaneous Movement, Feng Wuchen was fully capable of suppressing Ao Tian’s speed.

Moreover, Feng Wuchen had already seen through Ao Tian’s attacking habits.

All the people present were intimidated by this terrifying instantaneous movement. With Ao Tian’s strength almost comparable to the Eight Layers of the Yuan Dan Realm, he still couldn’t suppress Feng Wuchen in terms of speed.

“Such a horrifying movement technique, Feng Wuchen is willing to teach it to the Sky Shadow cavalry and the Black Qi Army, it’s unbelievable,” Duan Tian Hun thought with shock. And the instantaneous movement used by Feng Wuchen made the solders’ attempts seem insignificant in comparison.

Thinking of this, Duan Tian Hun looked at Gu Qingxuan and sneered, “Your son might not be able to kill Feng Wuchen.”

The previously smug Gu Qingxuan now had a somber expression on his face again.

“Being fast doesn’t necessarily mean you can win,” Gu Qingxuan said in a deep voice.

Feng Wuchen was not lightly injured, with over a dozen sword wounds on his body. Moreover, he had also consumed a lot of True Yuan. Even with his terrifying movement technique, he might not be able to defeat Ao Tian.

Their fierce battle seemed to have become the focus of the great war. Even the clashes of Tianyuan Realm powerhouses didn’t seem as captivating as the fight between Feng Wuchen and Ao Tian.

Even during this battle of life and death, people couldn’t help but look towards the square from time to time.

“For someone nearly at the Eight Layers of the Yuan Dan Realm, that’s only as fast as you can go,” Feng Wuchen said coldly, showing no regard for Ao Tian.

“No matter how fast you are! You’re still going to die! Get lost!”

Ao Tian, burning with rage, suddenly let out a ferocious roar, his terrifying Qi Force spreading out, causing Feng Wuchen to instantly retreat.

“Tianyun Sword Technique! Thousand Heavy Slash!”

With a roar, Ao Tian swung his long sword, and a sword light over twenty meters long tore through the air with imposing momentum. Where it passed, the ground of the square cracked and burst open.

Striking in wrath, Ao Tian’s strength was even more terrifying, and his sword light was ferociously powerful.

“Ding!”

The Fiery Blade planted into the ground, Feng Wuchen exerted his full strength to activate his Bloodline Power. Golden light burst forth fiercely, and the domineering force exploded. Below his feet, a golden Array emerged, filled with mysterious symbols and dazzling golden light shooting towards the sky, while a commanding Sword Intent surged, full of intimidating power.

“Illusory Destruction Sword Technique! Illusory Destruction of the Ninth Heaven!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, Feng Wuchen shouted loudly, pointing his sword towards the sky. Dazzling golden light condensed into an energy sword that shot out with a destructive momentum, the sonic boom piercing the ears.

At this moment, all the people stopped fighting, and their fearful gaze turned towards the two fearsome sword light powers.

“Boom!”

“Spurt!”

In an instant, the tremendous sword light collided and exploded, the deafening blast echoing, and the ripples of destructive energy surged outwards. Feng Wuchen immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and was sent flying away.

“Brother Feng!”

“Grand Commander!”

Liu Qingyang and the others shouted in utter panic.

In the blink of an eye, Feng Wuchen was devoured by the terrible energy ripples.

“Buzz!”

The extremely terrifying energy ripples coalesced into a huge semicircular expansion, as if the entire Tianyun Sect’s palace was shaking, scaring the Tianyun Sect disciples and soldiers on the square into a panicking retreat.

In this fierce clash, Feng Wuchen suffered severe injuries!

As Ao Tian, who was nearly at the Eight Layers of the Yuan Dan Realm, was also shaken back several dozens of meters, he seemed to be uninjured, merely a little pale.

The destructive power of the energy ripples was extremely terrifying; a huge pit of more than a dozen meters was blasted into the center of the great square.

The pit was visually impactful and shocking to the eye.

The entire place was silent, with gazes fixed tightly on the square.

After a moment, as the energy ripples and dust gradually dispersed, the figures of Feng Wuchen and Ao Tian slowly appeared in everyone’s line of sight.

Ao Tian stood there, his face pale but uninjured.

Feng Wuchen was seriously injured, covered in fresh blood, struggling into a horse stance, with his hands hanging down and his head bowed, he was taking loud, labored breaths, obviously very weak.

“Young Sect Master! Kill him!”

“Kill Feng Wuchen!”

After a silent moment, the disciples of the Tianyun Sect immediately boiled over, shouting nonstop.

On the other hand, Ye Cangqiong and the others were frantic, their faces filled with worry and tension.

The victor was becoming very clear. Even though Feng Wuchen was faster than Ao Tian, he was still defeated by Ao Tian. Feng Wuchen was very weak and had no more True Yuan to continue the fight.

“Hmph! No matter how fast you are, you can’t win against me! Feng Wuchen, your death is certain!” Seeing the weakened Feng Wuchen, Ao Tian said fiercely with a sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

“Feng Wuchen! Time to die!” As Ao Tian gathered his strength, he roared, “Tianyun Sword Technique! Tianyun Divine Sword!”

“Whoosh!”

Ao Tian swung his long sword, and an even more terrifying sword light shot out, like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, preparing to reap Feng Wuchen’s life.

“Brother Feng! Dodge it quickly!”

“Grand Commander! Be careful!”

Liu Qingyang and the others were extremely panicked, their souls almost fleeing their bodies as they shouted out loud.

But just as the terrifying sword light was about to hit, Feng Wuchen remained unmoving, seemingly unable to move, or as if he had given up, truly hanging by a thread!

However, upon closer inspection, a faint golden light was emerging all over Feng Wuchen’s body, and an extremely terrifying aura burst out in an instant.

The moment Feng Wuchen lifted his head, a golden dragon mark appeared between his eyebrows!
