An Lin was tucked under Bai Ling’s arm, and they flew through the air together as Bai Ling’s power of the spatial divine dao kept the power of darkness around them at bay.
Everything around them flashed past in a blur.
An Lin drew closer and closer to Chen Hao.
The Nine-Tailed Divine Fox immediately turned to Bai Ling and whipped a massive black tail toward her. At the same time, the space around her began to congeal in order to prevent her from using her spatial skipping ability.
Bai Ling’s expression did not shift in the slightest, as if she had already predicted that this would be the course of action taken by the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox.
A white formation suddenly appeared on the back of her hand, and a white light that was as bouncy and smooth as jelly enshrouded herself and An Lin. In that instant, they broke through the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox’s spatial seal as they explosively accelerated once again.
The massive tail continued to sweep toward her, but she was able to just evade the attack following her burst of explosive acceleration.
The other three Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures didn’t know what Bai Ling was doing, but they knew it was something very important, so they immediately increased their offensive output with all their might to distract Chen Hao from being able to attack Bai Ling.
Countless ghostly heads erupted from one of his massive tails before flying toward Bai Ling.
Bai Ling’s speed did not falter in the slightest, and she used her hands as sabers to slice through the ghostly heads like a ghost-busting warrior unleashing one lethal saber projection after another to vanquish all of the ghostly heads!
She finally made her way to a close enough location before hurling An Lin like an oversized baseball toward the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox’s back. “Go, An Lin!”
Boom!
An Lin crashed heavily onto the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox’s back.
Chen Hao: “Howl…!”
An Lin was struck by a powerful sense of dizziness and vertigo, and tears almost fell from his eyes.
He only needed to be within a hundred-meter distance of Chen Hao; he didn’t even have to be on Chen Hao’s back! What the hell was Bai Ling doing hurling him like some sort of human bomb?!
Chen Hao’s back caved in from the impact, and a smile lit up Bai Ling’s intricate features, as if to say “that was a job well done”.
Her thought process was quite simple. An Lin wanted to get closer to Chen Hao, so she would facilitate direct physical contact between him and Chen Hao. Wasn’t that the safest and surest way to do this?
An Lin was still grumbling in his heart, but the insignia of a golden eye immediately appeared on his forehead.
Divine Plunder Technique!
A myriad of spell techniques instantly appeared in An Lin’s mind. Thankfully, his consciousness was quite powerful. Otherwise, his brain was going to explode from the massive influx of information overload.
Among the countless spell techniques, he chose to plunder one called Master of Darkness!
In that instant, the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox felt as if he had lost something.
“F*ck off!” The Nine-Tailed Divine Fox roared as the power of the divine dao erupted from his body, knocking An Lin into the distance.
An Lin threw up a mouthful of blood upon being struck by the terrifying power of the darkness divine dao and was caught by Bai Ling before both of them hurtled back in retreat.
It would be quite difficult for Bai Ling to protect An Lin when he was in such close proximity to Chen Hao, so it was best to open up some distance between them.
“An Lin, you’re awesome!” Bai Ling exclaimed with shock and elation.
An Lin was completely oblivious. “Wh… why?”
Bai Ling turned to An Lin with surprise on her face. “You don’t know? The sealing power within the darkness has completely disappeared!”
An Lin’s heart jolted upon hearing this. “You’re saying… that I can move freely now?!”
A faint smile appeared on Bai Ling’s face. “You should be asking yourself that seeing as you effected this change! I’m starting to doubt whether you actually did anything.”
A resigned smile appeared on An Lin’s face. There were too many spell techniques and too little time, so he had no time to survey anything in detail and just picked a spell technique with the most bad*ss name.
Master of Darkness!
Who would have thought that this Master of Darkness technique would be the power the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox used to immobilize everyone.
An Lin surveyed the true intent of the spell technique and waved a hand through the darkness, upon which an invisible wave of darkness began to surge.
This feeling… It was fantastic!
It felt like he was the master of the darkness around him!
“Big Sister Bai, there’s no need to run anymore,” An Lin said in a firm voice.
Bai Ling looked at the man tucked under her arm.
“I want to fight!”
An Lin’s eyes were burning with battle intent.
Chen Hao had clearly figured out what he had lost, and he turned toward An Lin before unleashing an enraged roar, “Howl! What did you do to me?”
Just his roar alone sent destructive soundwaves sweeping through the air for several kilometers.
In the face of such a terrifying soundwave attack, a faint smile appeared on An Lin’s face, and he rose into the air atop his brick with a tranquil and calm expression. The soundwaves swept toward him, but they seemed to have struck an invisible wall about a thousand feet away from him and were instantly dispelled.
Chen Hao’s pupils contracted upon seeing this, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.
An Lin looked directly at the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox and spread open his hands with a disdainful expression. “I, An Lin, am the true master of darkness!”
Boom!
Boundless waves of darkness surged in a frenzy to lock onto the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox!
“Howl! This is my power! Why do you have my power?!” The Nine-Tailed Divine Fox was both shocked and enraged, and he was forced to unleash dazzling divine light from his body in order to keep the darkness around him at bay.
Chen Hao’s home-court advantage had been conceded to An Lin!
Qing Beichen, Bai Muyu, Yue Dou, and Bai Ling unleashed attacks upon Chen Hao at once.
The darkness had been restricting them in the past, and they had been forced to unleash their powers of the divine dao in order to withstand the darkness while Chen Hao was free from any form of debilitation. However, the situation was now completely reversed. Chen Hao was being debilitated by his own darkness while the other four mighty figures attacking him were completely unaffected.
The entire battle had been turned on its head as a result!
Earth-shattering spell techniques descended one after another, and the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox was soon firmly on the back foot.
Yue Dou broke through his defenses and launched an almighty fist to knock the massive Nine-Tailed Divine Fox flying through the air.
Bai Muyu’s sword projections pierced through the air with peerless sharpness toward the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox’s head!
“Howl! White Bone Hell!”
A layer of white bone armor suddenly appeared on the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox’s body.
The sword projections struck the armor, and a dazzling light erupted forth, but the armor remained resolute and unbroken.
Right at this moment, countless white bone spikes that were extremely sharp appeared from within the darkness before piercing through the air toward Bai Muyu and Yue Dou in a frenzy.
The white bone spikes were monstrously powerful, and they were able to even break through Yue Dou’s defenses before leaving a series of bloody wounds on his body.
Bai Muyu used her sword to defend herself, but each and every clash between the sword blade and the bone spikes would knock her back a few hundred meters.
After donning the white bone armor, the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox let loose a burst of demented screeching, and the crimson in his eyes became even darker and crazed. It was quite clear that the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox was on the verge of completely losing all sanity.
Countless bones erupted forth with the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox at their very center, like a lethal lotus flower blossoming with the sole purpose of slaughter and annihilation.
Qing Beichen waved his claws to slap away the white bone spikes flying at him. “If Chen Hao keeps this up, his divine dao is going to fall into depravity, and he is going to self-destruct.”
“So all we have to do is stall for time?” An Lin asked.
A bitter smile appeared on Bai Ling’s face. “Stall for time? If we really do that, he would most likely be able to take down a few of us with him before he self-destructs.”
A faint smile appeared on Qing Beichen’s face, and his body gradually expanded in size to become an Eight-Tailed Divine Fox. “The best way out of this would be to kill Chen Hao before he falls into depravity!”
An Lin nodded, and his eyes began to glow. “Seeing as that’s the case, I want to test out a new spell technique as well.”
