Death Grip
"I’m calm as hell, I’m calm! If I were any calmer, I’d be dead!" Xing Chen cursed angrily, and instead of slowing down, he quickened his pace to get out.
At that moment, outside, the Demon Dragon and others were preparing for their third wave of attacks when they unexpectedly saw Xing Chen suddenly leap out.
At the same time, a powerful Demonic Aura surged up instantly, and a person engulfed in black Demonic Flame burst forth from the ground, crashing into one of the Demon Dragon God's disciples. In an instant, that disciple was tightly embraced by Xing Chen, and powerful Demonic Flame ignited on him.
Caught off guard, even though this person was an Observer of the Realm, he had no time to react at all before being surrounded by the Demonic Flame and burned to ashes.
This person didn’t even manage to put up a fight; he died in such a suffocating manner, undoubtedly one of the most humiliating deaths for an Observer of the Realm in history.
"Well, well, impressive indeed. You came out and managed to kill one of my Gaze into Fate disciples. If you reach your peak, Gaze into Fate might not even stand a chance against you," Demon Dragon said darkly as he looked at Xing Chen.
At this moment, the other Observers of the Realm also reacted and quickly surrounded Xing Chen.
"You filthy brat! You actually killed two strong members of my Demon Dragon Lineage from Gaze into Fate. You're dead meat! Even if King Laozi comes, he can't save you!"
"That's right! You’re dead!"
"How dare you provoke our Demon Dragon Lineage? You will definitely die!"
Mo Qing and the others surrounded Xing Chen and shouted angrily. However, despite their rage, none dared to attack. One reason was that Xing Chen's strength was formidable, making them cautious; the other was that Demon Dragon had not yet given the order for them to attack recklessly.
"If I were Gaze into Fate, I could slaughter you like dogs!" Xing Chen sneered. Faced with so many from Gaze into Fate and a Soul-Searching Realm Expert, he showed no sign of fear.
"Junior Brother, you need to run! They are too strong; you are no match for them!" At that moment, Xueqing suddenly shouted loudly. Although she was astonished that Xing Chen had killed an Observer of the Realm upon appearing, she understood that it was purely luck. If Xing Chen faced an Observer of the Realm head-on, he would undoubtedly lose and die!
"Unfortunately for you, you're not Gaze into Fate; therefore, you will die today!" Demon Dragon said coldly while gripping Xueqing's arm tightly as he looked at Xing Chen.
"Who dies will only be known after we fight. Demon Dragon, if you're a man, let go of my Senior Sister and face me one-on-one," Xing Chen said as he gathered the Hate Demon Sword in his hand while the Hate Demon Armor slowly materialized around him. Then he pointed at Demon Dragon.
"I may not be a righteous man, but I accept your challenge. However, I won’t let go of Xueqing; even if I hold onto her, I can still defeat you effortlessly," Demon Dragon replied as he stepped forward and added, "You all step back; I want to see just how strong his abilities really are."
"Yes, Dragon Master!" Mo Qing and the others responded and retreated.
"Demon Dragon, don't think I don't know what you're planning. You just want to use my Senior Sister as a shield so that I won't dare to attack you, right? I didn't expect someone like you, a Gaze of Fate, would resort to such tricks against me, a Gaze into the Self. You've really lost my respect," Xing Chen said disdainfully as he looked at Demon Dragon.
"You're full of crap. I, Demon Dragon, wouldn't stoop to using such tricks. Xueqing, I hope you can consider your junior brother's safety and not run away," Demon Dragon said, grabbing Xueqing's arm and slowly releasing it.
"Junior Brother, don't fight him. You're no match for him; you'll be instantly annihilated," Xueqing said anxiously, looking at Xing Chen.
"Senior Sister, don't worry! I'll be fine; just watch from the side," Xing Chen replied.
"Rest assured, I won't kill him. As long as you don't run away, for your sake, I'll spare his life," Demon Dragon added.
"Spare my life? Then let's see who dies first!" Xing Chen sneered, and at the same time, his aura surged dramatically.
"Then I'll see what level your Gaze into the Self can reach!" A look of contempt appeared in Demon Dragon's eyes. He then slightly narrowed his eyes and said to Xing Chen.
"Reverse Nine Swords!" Xing Chen stepped forward, his aura rising again. At the same time, a Demon God Phantom slowly emerged behind him. This Phantom stood tall, its cold eyes seemingly containing the power of Sun and Moon Submergence and Starfall. As Xing Chen executed the Reverse Nine Swords, the Demon God Phantom moved as well.
As the massive black magic sword in his hand was slowly raised, the surrounding space trembled violently. With every movement, it seemed as if this Phantom could shake the ground and break through the Underworld.
"Interesting, but with this level of power, you're still far from being able to deal with me," Demon Dragon said lightly as he observed Xing Chen's actions.
"Tch, to think such an attack would aim to take down the Dragon Master. You're truly overestimating yourself."
"Exactly! You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror and see how pathetic you are trying to challenge the Dragon Master."
"It's going to rain; someone's getting married; someone wants to die—there's nothing we can do! I bet the Dragon Master could kill him with one move."
The surrounding crowd of Mo Qing and others began discussing again.
Meanwhile, Xing Chen ignored their chatter. He swiftly slashed forward with his Hate Demon Sword, unleashing nine strikes that formed a straight line descending upon Demon Dragon. Simultaneously, the Demon God Phantom behind him also executed nine strikes that pierced through the void and rushed toward Demon Dragon.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
A series of explosive sounds echoed, and the area where the Demon Dragon was located was instantly engulfed by Black Light, with the space around it being torn apart in an instant, countless Spatial Storms spreading throughout.
Xing Chen's strike had truly reached Gaze into Fate, directly tearing apart space and triggering the Spatial Storm, intending to use its power to kill the Demon Dragon.
"Dragon Master..."
Mo Qing and the others gasped at this sight, but suddenly, amidst the endless Black Light storm, a Dragon Roar resounded through Nine Heavens, followed by a black Purple Dragon Soul charging out fiercely towards Xing Chen.
The strength of the Demon Dragon's Gaze of Fate could not be so easily defeated by Xing Chen. Immediately, it unleashed the Demon Dragon Fist, breaking through all obstacles in its path. The immense power pierced through the vacuum, carrying endless demonic might towards Xing Chen.
"Junior brother!" Xueqing exclaimed nearby. However, her injuries had not yet healed; even if she wanted to save Xing Chen, she was powerless to do so and could only call out a warning.
"Sealing Magic Great Handprint!" As Xing Chen's expression changed slightly, he thrust his palm forward. With this motion, the entire dome trembled instantly as a massive black hand filled with Demonic Aura reached out. The overwhelming power caused Mo Qing and the others who were at Gaze into Fate to change their expressions slightly.
Roar!
At that moment, a Dragon Roar suddenly sounded as the Demon Dragon charged forward, colliding violently with the Sealing Magic Great Handprint.
Boom!
Upon collision, a wave of destructive energy instantly spread out, and Xing Chen was sent flying backward by the powerful force.
"Hehe, the Dragon Master is indeed formidable; with just one move, he has nearly killed this one."
"What do you mean nearly dead? I think he's already dead. Such a powerful strike would be hard for any of us to withstand, let alone someone who is merely at Gaze into the Self."
"Exactly, he definitely won't survive."
Mo Qing and the others laughed heartily. Such a powerful blow could even annihilate someone at Gaze into Fate, let alone someone who had just reached Gaze into the Self.
"Junior Brother..." Xueqing exclaimed, her delicate face instantly turning pale.
"Don't worry, I promised you I wouldn't kill him; he won't die," Demon Dragon said, glancing at Xueqing.
"Even if you want to kill me, you can't!" Xing Chen's voice suddenly rang out, and his figure, which had fallen into the abyss, slowly floated up, his cold gaze fixed on Demon Dragon.
However, his pale complexion and the blood at the corner of his mouth indicated that he was indeed injured.
"I'll see how long you can keep up that bravado," Demon Dragon scoffed. He then suddenly pointed forward, and with that single gesture, he pierced through layers of space, appearing right in front of Xing Chen as if he were about to explode Xing Chen's head in the next moment.
"Hmph! Let me show you the power of my Eastern Domain Treasure." As Xing Chen spoke, a flash of Azure Dragon Soul appeared between his brows. Immediately, the Purple Dragon Soul transformed into a green light that shot into Xing Chen's hand, turning into a divine sword radiating a faint azure glow. The brilliance was dazzling, and a Purple Dragon Soul coiled around the sword's body, adding to its might.
At the same time, a powerful pressure descended instantly, enveloping hundreds of miles around them. Even Demon Dragon's expression changed slightly at this moment; it was the first time since their confrontation that his face showed any change.
"What a strong Divine Weapon!" Demon Dragon looked at the Azure Dragon Divine Weapon in Xing Chen's hand with surprise. His body involuntarily trembled slightly; the aura emitted by the Azure Dragon Divine Weapon was simply too powerful, making him feel as if he couldn't even muster the will to resist.
"Azure Dragon Divine Weapon, Azure Dragon Slash!"
Xing Chen shouted loudly as he swung down the Azure Dragon Divine Weapon. Accompanied by this strike, the entire space trembled at that moment; the fabric of space instantly shattered with a roar that echoed through the cosmos, shaking it far more than Demon Dragon's earlier Dragon Roar.
