Shen Gongbao never expected the combined attack of his opponents to be so powerful. Struck directly by the Steam Tornado, he let out a piercing scream as his body was thrown back, crashing heavily to the ground.
Nezha and Ao Bing were also pushed back a few steps by the recoil, but they quickly regained their footing, warily observing Shen Gongbao's condition.
As the dust settled, Shen Gongbao struggled to rise from the ground. He had returned to his human form, but his aura was noticeably weakened. A look of disbelief filled his face. "Impossible... How could you possess such strength..."
"This is what you fail to understand, Shen Gongbao," Ao Bing said calmly. "True power comes from trust and cooperation, not from greed and ambition."
"Hmph, beautiful words," Shen Gongbao sneered, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. "But tonight is far from over. The ritual of the full moon will still proceed; I have prepared plenty of backup plans."
"What backup plans?" Nezha asked warily.
Shen Gongbao smiled coldly. "You think Li Ming is really helping you? He has been my pawn from the very beginning, and now he is executing my final command..."
Ao Bing's expression changed dramatically. "What have you done to him?"
"Nothing at all," Shen Gongbao shrugged. "I merely had him retrieve something for me—the Dragon Scale from your dormitory."
"What?!" Nezha and Ao Bing exclaimed in unison.
"While you were here entangled with me, Li Ming has already infiltrated your dormitory and taken that Dragon Scale," Shen Gongbao said triumphantly. "Now, it is on its way to the Abandoned Laboratory in the North Campus, where my ritual is all set up."
Ao Bing's face turned pale. "We've been tricked! He deliberately lured us out to divert our attention!"
"Exactly," Shen Gongbao sneered, "and you no longer have time. In half an hour, the moon will reach its zenith, and the Dragon Gate Ceremony will commence. Even without you, the Dragon Scale is enough to channel sufficient energy to open the portal..."
Before he could finish, Shen Gongbao suddenly transformed into a cloud of black mist, swiftly dissipating into the night. Nezha attempted to pursue him, but Ao Bing grabbed his arm.
"It's useless; he's already escaped," Ao Bing said urgently. "We must head to the North Campus immediately to stop the ceremony!"
Without further ado, the two raced towards the North Campus. Along the way, Ao Bing explained anxiously, "If Shen Gongbao really obtains the Dragon Scale, he can perform a simplified version of the ceremony even without me. Although the portal won't be very stable and he won't gain all its power, it will still cause immense destruction!"
"What about Li Ming?" Nezha asked with concern. "Has he been controlled or has he truly betrayed us?"
"It's hard to say," Ao Bing frowned. "Shen Gongbao is skilled in manipulation; he might have used some method to control Li Ming's mind. Regardless, we need to get there as quickly as possible."
The two ran at full speed and finally arrived at the Abandoned Laboratory on the North Campus. From outside, they could see eerie blue lights flickering inside, indicating that the ceremony had already begun.
Without hesitation, Nezha kicked open the door and rushed in. In the center of the laboratory stood Shen Gongbao within a complex array, seven Dragon Pattern Items arranged in a Seven Star Formation, with the Azure Dragon Scale floating in the middle, radiating dazzling light. Li Ming stood nearby, his eyes vacant and clearly under control.
"Stop!" Nezha shouted, gathering flames in his hands and preparing to attack.
Shen Gongbao turned his head, a victorious smile on his face. "Just in time; witness this historic moment! The Dragon Gate is about to open, and the power of the Dragon Palace will belong to me!"
He raised his hands high and began chanting incantations. The blue light within the array intensified as the Dragon Scale started to tremble violently, as if it were about to tear apart space itself.
Ao Bing immediately understood the urgency of the situation and shouted to Nezha, "We must interrupt the ceremony! You go save Li Ming; I'll handle Shen Gongbao!"
