For some reason, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were struck by the urge to give Xiao Tu a beating upon hearing this.
This was the first time they had seen someone display such contempt toward the power of dragons.
Give it to me if you don’t want it!
“By the way, Mr. An Lin, I really didn’t think you would progress this quickly.
“I always knew you were exceptional, but now, I’m beginning to wonder if you’re some bad*ss mighty figure in disguise.”
Xiao Tu spoke as he absorbed the power of dragons with a pained expression.
“I’m actually Pangu,” An Lin said with a smile.
“Don’t lie to me. I’ve seen Pangu before, and he didn’t flex anywhere near as much as you,” Xiao Tu refuted.
An Lin: “…”
“And your dao partner as well. This is the first time I’ve seen such an outstanding Dragon Tribe descendant,” Xiao Tu continued to dish out praise.
“You’re far too kind, Senior.” Xu Xiaolan tried to be modest, but deep down, she was feeling quite elated.
Being praised like this by a Dragon Tribe ancestor gave her a strong sense of accomplishment.
An Lin chuckled as he interjected, “Of course my dao partner is outstanding! She was just saying that she was invincible below Dao Integration Stage! How could she not be outstanding after saying something like that?!”
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
Xiao Tu faltered slightly upon hearing this and didn’t know what to say.
Were all young people this cocky nowadays?!
After absorbing the power of dragons, Xiao Tu’s injuries had mostly recovered. He had also taken a regenerative immortal pill, so he was now ready to keep on battling.
Everyone continued on toward the pillars of light.
Time was of the essence in an emergency like this, so they couldn’t afford to stall here.
At the center of the ninety-nine pillars of light.
The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression suddenly shifted as grief and incredulity appeared on her face. “Bao Fo and Tun Tian died?”
They were two of the most powerful cultivators among the evil dragons. None of the most powerful enemies had fallen, but two of her most powerful subordinates had already perished…
“Dark Night Trident! You owe me an explanation!”
The Ancient Dragon Empress’ wrath erupted straight into the heavens, and Dark Night Trident was struck by a crushing sense of asphyxiation as he trembled uncontrollably.
“Ancient Dragon Empress, you really can’t blame me for this! The enemy is simply too bizarre! Let me explain…”
Dark Night Trident recounted on An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and Xiao Tu’s battles. To be honest, even he was dumbstruck by what he was seeing at that time!
He felt like those three people were simply demons!
Tun Tian Evil Dragon was swallowed by its own technique, while Bao Fo Evil Dragon was blasted to death by a suicide bomber that wouldn’t die! This was a bizarre story that no one would even believe!
Thankfully, the Ancient Dragon Empress believed him.
She looked into the distance, where three powerful beings were hurtling toward her at extreme speed.
“Sigh… Am I going to have to battle after all?” The Ancient Dragon Empress heaved a faint sigh.
“You can’t!” Dark Night Trident dissuaded in a panicked voice, “You are the hope of our entire tribe, so you can’t allow yourself to go into battle!
“You’re extremely close to the Dao Integration Stage, and if you unleash your power of the divine dao here in this broken and cursed world, you’ll have no hope of ever progressing to the Dao Integration Stage in the future! I’ll send some other dragons to hold those enemies off!”
The Ancient Dragon Empress interrogated in a cold voice that was filled with irrefutable might, “Dark Night Trident, are you trying to kill more of our tribal brethren?”
Dark Night Trident’s body shuddered. His tightly clenched fists trembled uncontrollably, but he didn’t dare to say anything.
He knew what a significant sacrifice the Ancient Dragon Empress was going to make for her tribal brethren. He had admired and revered her from when he was just a young dragon, but now, his idol was about to give up on the path she had been pursuing her entire life…
The Ancient Dragon Empress looked around at the thirty thousand brethren around her before speaking in an indifferent voice, “I’ll be back soon.”
Her body suddenly disappeared as her voice fell.
Over five hundred kilometers away.
An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and Xiao Tu suddenly faltered.
A Dragon Tribe woman wearing a rainbow imperial robe suddenly appeared before them.
The Dragon Tribe woman had a set of beautiful features and a pair of eyes as clear and bright as rubies. Her dragon horns were a translucent white, and she had a pair of rainbow-colored wings that appeared to be caught somewhere between illusion and reality.
Xiao Tu immediately flared up with rage upon seeing this woman.
This was the woman who had just slain him!
She was also the leader of the evil dragons in the Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm, the Ancient Dragon Empress.
“It’s you! You dared to kill me once, so I’ll return the favor!” Xiao Tu roared with rage, and his massive body twisted as his tail whipped through the air with the power of the divine dao like a slap toward the Ancient Dragon Empress!
The Ancient Dragon Empress’ wings spread open, and her body dissipated like clouds and mist.
Xiao Tu’s attack struck thin air.
“I’ve already sealed the space around here, but she can still escape so quickly?” Xiao Tu’s brows furrowed.
In the next instant.
Xu Xiaolan’s expression shifted drastically as she used her sword as a shield before her.
The Ancient Dragon Empress reappeared before Xu Xiaolan, and her hands transformed into white dragon claws that tore through space before crashing into the Dragon Sparrow Sword with devastating power!
Boom!
Indescribably crushing force erupted forth.
Xu Xiaolan was knocked flying along with her sword!
The Ancient Dragon Empress’ brows furrowed slightly. Her thought process was to kill the weakest link first, but this human woman was able to block her attack?
“Xiaolan!” An Lin’s entire body turned crimson golden, and he hurtled through space with seven different flames erupting around him at once.
His arm relentlessly accumulated power, becoming more and more dazzling in the process.
An Lin launched an almighty fist toward the Ancient Dragon Empress.
Three Times, Fire God Fist!
After absorbing the Return to Void Final Stage power of dragons, his Fire God Fist was even more powerful.
The Ancient Dragon Empress reacted extremely quickly as one of her dragon claws swept through the air to clash with An Lin’s Fire God Fist.
Boom!
The space within a radius of over a kilometer instantly crumbled!
The earth within a radius of over ten kilometers was annihilated into dust!
A crisp crack sounded from the Ancient Dragon Empress’ dragon claw as her body was knocked flying by the overwhelming force behind An Lin’s fist.
Her expression shifted again as a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
“Hahaha… Well done, Mr. An Lin!” A massive black figure suddenly appeared, obscuring the entire sky and cutting off all avenues of escape and evasion available to the Ancient Dragon Empress.
“Dead Bind!”
Xiao Tu’s body caught the Ancient Dragon Empress’ tumbling body like a baseball mitt, upon which he activated a spatial seal as well as inky-black chains that materialized from the power of the divine dao to completely ensnare the Ancient Dragon Empress!
“Experience the wonder of explosions with me!”
Xiao Tu chortled with glee. “Death Explosion!”
Boom!
Another devastating mushroom cloud rose up from the ground.
Xiao Tu’s self-detonation ability was extremely terrifying. It was able to severely wound a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure and even kill some who had weak defenses!
“Ah! Ah! Ah…!”
Xiao Tu’s anguished wails erupted again.
However, there was no sense of elation in his voice this time.
Boom boom boom…
This was the sound of a series of terrifying collisions.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan turned toward the direction where the battle was taking place.
A gargantuan black dragon was struggling for his life on the ground while a rainbow evil dragon straddled his body while materializing two rainbow fists, which she rained down relentlessly upon the black dragon.
Each and every one of her punches drew blood and broke bones!
In the end… Boom!
Xiao Tu’s body exploded open like a watermelon from the relentless attacks…
An Lin: “…”
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
