Right at this moment, a cold aura attacked from behind An Zheng.
An Zheng turned around and with a thought, four Holy Fish Scale s flew out from the Blood Pearl Bracelet and formed a wall in front of him. Boom! A huge force struck the Holy Fish Scale, causing An Zheng to uncontrollably retreat. His two feet drew two trails on the ground.
The Holy Fish Scale separated into a line, and An Zheng looked outside through that line.
Standing opposite of him, was the grinning Ding Shengxia.
An Zheng smiled, it was a cold killing intent.
"Concealment."
He stood up straight, and the Bronze Bell flew back to float beside him.
In Ding Shengxia's hand was a very, very long square halberd, and he was wearing a bright red armor, it was impossible to tell what it was made of. However, there were complicated runes flickering on top of it. It seemed to be of quite high quality. However, everything on Ding Shengxia's body was probably demonic, so he could not easily determine what grade it was.
"You're right, I'm like a ghost that won't leave."
Ding Shengxia sneered: "If I don't kill you, I won't be at peace for a day. "I will pester you, no matter where you go, until you die."
An Zheng said: "Then it's good that you died."
He pointed forward with his finger, and the Bronze Bell immediately flew over.
The ancient halberd in Ding Shengxia's hand thrust upwards, and a black bolt of lightning shot out. The Bronze Bell in the sky suddenly stopped, the bells started to spin, and from top of the bells, a wave of sound waves rippled down, like an enlarged bell. The black lightning was blocked by the sound wave. Although it was not shattered, it was still extremely difficult to move forward. After the bell stopped the black lightning, the sound wave produced two wavy lines that looked like lines as it shot towards Ding Shengxia.
Ding Shengxia laughed coldly, "Do you think that a similar object can injure me twice?"
He actually ignored the sound wave and rushed towards An Zheng. Sound waves wrapped around Ding Shengxia's body, the red armor on his body flickered, and the sound waves were actually attracted by an invisible force. Two sound waves were attracted behind Ding Shengxia, and exploded in the midst of the flowers and trees. Who knew how many flowers and plants were thrown into the air due to the tremors. Broken branches and leaves were scattered all over the place.
Ding Shengxia laughed loudly as he walked forward, "You won't be able to harm me if I have a top-grade magic tool with me."
The ancient halberd in his hand thrust forward and struck the Holy Fish Scale with a clang. There was actually a strange power on the halberd, as if it could break through the defense of the Holy Fish Scale at any time. Holy Fish Scale s were originally the strongest defensive magical equipment in the world, but they were not complete, so it was difficult for them to unleash their full might. The energy on the halberd was like water, flowing through the gaps in the Holy Fish Scale's defenses.
An Zheng frowned, Ding Shengxia seemed to be stronger.
What kind of method could make a person's strength soar in such a short amount of time?
At this time, Chang Huan and Huo Tangtang also rushed over. An Zheng didn't have time to say much and pointed to the library: "Quickly go, Mr. Song may not be able to hold it off by himself."
Chang Huan and Huo Tangtang's face changed, one in front and one in back, they rushed into the study building.
Ding Shengxia glanced at the study building, and then walked toward An Zheng with an evil grin: "You're really arrogant, to actually let the helper leave … "That's fine too. There will be a break between us in the end. You should pay back the debts of my family."
An Zheng took a deep breath, "It's not complete yet, you're just one more person."
Chapter 225 - Six Blast
An Zheng pointed forward, and the Bronze Bell quickly flew down, appearing behind Ding Shengxia. Before the bell could hit Ding Shengxia, the sound wave had arrived first. But Ding Shengxia was like a stone in the water, the sound wave was attracted by the runes on his armor and floated away to both sides. The sound waves could be seen with the naked eye. It was as if water was flowing past a rock. The bell quickly followed, but Ding Shengxia didn't care at all.
The Bronze Bell smashed heavily onto Ding Shengxia's back, causing the runes on Ding Shengxia's armor to light up and he actually disappeared.
The bells penetrated through and smashed towards An Zheng a few times. An Zheng thought, and the bell quickly floated above his head.
Ding Shengxia's figure appeared again, and he was still at his original position. The smile on his face had already become ferocious: "What? Looks like you can't do anything about it. An Zheng, you are still the original An Zheng, and I am no longer the original Ding Shengxia. "
An Zheng did not dodge. A light flashed in his hand and the Depressing Sword appeared.
The Depressing Sword was very small, but it was still a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact. If it was not at such a critical juncture, An Zheng would definitely not let the Purple-Rank Divine Artifact appear.
With a "pa" sound, the black light on the ancient halberd flickered and the Depressing Sword cut off the front half of the halberd. Ding Shengxia's eyes suddenly widened, but he quickly recovered. He still did not stop, as he continued to thrust his halberd towards An Zheng, holding onto the half of it. Just as An Zheng was in a daze, the half of the halberd that was cut off suddenly disappeared.
The halberd in Ding Shengxia's hand recovered its original form and pierced heavily into the Holy Fish Scale.
An Zheng's body involuntarily retreated backwards, his back colliding with a tree in front of the library. Under the immense force, the thick tree snapped at the waist and fell backwards with a creaking sound.
An Zheng felt a suffocating feeling in his chest, his expression becoming more and more solemn.
The heavenly halberd had clearly already been chopped in half, so why would it appear again?
Ding Shengxia thrusted forward again, and the heavenly halberd suddenly became soft, coiling around An Zheng like a poisonous snake. An Zheng retreated quickly, and the giant python formed by the square Heavenly Halberd swept across, directly shattering the large tree that had fallen onto the ground into pieces. (TL: UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU)) What was even more terrifying was that the wood shavings instantly turned into black powder.
Although An Zheng had the defense of a Holy Fish Scale, that kind of strange power seemed to be able to penetrate through every single one of An Zheng's pores and was currently corroding his body.
An Zheng knew that he could no longer hold back any longer, and his eyes suddenly went cold: "Open!"
With a loud shout, a thick layer of heaven and earth origin energy gathered around his body. The next thing he knew was that An Zheng had broken the restriction on him.
Exploding forth!
All of the debris in the surroundings was blown away, and the huge black python was sent flying backwards by the hurricane created by the explosion of the Qi. The force of the explosion cleared out An Zheng's surroundings, and a pit appeared on the ground.
Second explosion!
The solidified Qi exploded, as though there were countless of arrows made of Qi shooting out from An Zheng's body. That qi was completely materialized and its speed was unimaginably fast. Ding Shengxia raised his hand and blocked in front of him, and then pounced on him like a torrential rain of arrows. However, just as the Qi arrow was about to pierce him, his bright red armor would flicker with light and draw away all the Qi arrows.
Wherever Ding Shengxia went, the Qi arrows would rain down like baptisms of rain, cutting apart all the vegetation.
Three explosions!
A huge whirlwind appeared around An Zheng's body, twisting and turning towards the sky. The surrounding heaven and earth origin energy was drawn towards the tornado, which instantly turned green. It seemed that its power was extremely terrifying, and even the study building a short dis
tance away began to creak under the impact of the tornadoes. After a while, the windows of the library were all shattered and sent flying into the air.
Ding Shengxia's face paled. He did not think that An Zheng would actually make a breakthrough at this moment. He was well aware of An Zheng's previous cultivation level, which was at most third grade of Xumi. But at this moment, An Zheng's body had already exploded three times, which also meant that An Zheng had consecutively risen to Level 3 in this instant. Even if he was an exceptional genius, it was impossible for him to advance from the third stage of the Sumeru Stage to the sixth stage of the Sumeru Stage in such a short amount of time!
Ding Shengxia roared out with the heavenly halberd in his hand, he used all his strength to stab towards An Zheng. The Fang Tian Halberd's black transformation surged, and a burst of black light exploded at the very front. Within the black light, there seemed to be countless twisted palms grabbing together. It was as though there were countless wraiths and wraiths gathered on the halberd.
The black ball of light carried with it a strong corrosive power as it heavily smashed onto An Zheng's body.
But at this moment, An Zheng's eyes suddenly widened. "Open!"
Following his second shout, Ding Shengxia clearly heard the sound of a door opening. The sound was extremely heavy, as if a huge door that weighed ten thousand tons had been forcefully pushed open by someone. The voice was deep, but it was also exceptionally ear-piercing.
Boom! *
A fourth explosion!
A huge wave of Qi swept out in all directions, and the tornado rose to the sky. The green tornado seemed to have covered every inch of the surrounding heaven and earth origin energy within a kilometer's radius. The green dragon became thicker and thicker. Not only that, the clouds in the sky all changed due to the appearance of the tornado. The clouds in the surroundings started to gather towards the tornado. As the originally thick clouds grew thicker and thicker, with the addition of the tornado's power, they actually turned into dark clouds.
lightning flash
Thunder!
The huge force produced by the fourth explosion directly sent Ding Shengxia flying. Although the armor on his body helped him divert the power away, the power was too violent, and the aura around him changed. No matter how strong the armor was, it would be difficult for it to draw away all of the power in that instant.
Ding Shengxia crawled up from the ground and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Blood sprayed onto his halberd, and the black light of the halberd coiled around it. There were actually electric serpents that appeared as well. A moment later, the heavenly halberd turned into a black python that was even bigger and more solid than before, swaying its body and smashing towards An Zheng. The gigantic python's body smashed heavily onto An Zheng's body like a giant rod swung by Ding Shengxia.
However, that huge rod did not harm An Zheng at all, because the fifth time, it had exploded.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
A vacuum appeared around An Zheng's body as the extremely dense energy of heaven and earth completely squeezed away the air, forming a gigantic green ball that had a diameter of more than ten meters. As for the tornado, it continued to spin upwards as the surrounding heaven and earth origin energy continued to be drawn in from all directions. In just a few seconds, An Zheng had levelled up from the third stage to the eighth stage of the Sumeru Stage!
Ding Shengxia's heavenly halberd transformed into a giant python that was sent flying. The giant python swept across and swept everything within a radius of 10 metres away. One end of the giant python's body struck the book building, slicing open all the windows on the first floor. A one-meter-wide hole appeared in the library. The giant python crashed out from the side of the library, and bricks flew everywhere.
"This is impossible!"
Ding Shengxia roared, his eyes filled with hatred. He rushed forward crazily, trying to attack crazily, but he couldn't even break through the green ball of air that was more than ten metres in diameter from An Zheng. This was pure energy origin energy, an absolute region!
However, An Zheng still did not stop there. A few seconds later, the blue scroll which reached to the sky brought back the heaven and earth origin energy that was as thick as a dark cloud back, and all of it poured into the green ball of air. A moment later, the green ball of aura that was at least as solid as a mountain first expanded outwards, then instantly shrank back, completely merging into An Zheng's body.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Sixth explosion!
The shockwave caused by the explosion lifted the ground into the air as if it were a carpet. At least half a meter thick on the surface of the levee was blown forward by the wind. This kind of scene was rarely seen even in the desert. Only when they encountered a sandstorm would they be able to see such a spectacular sight.
The blast pushed the wall forward, and the wall grew thicker and thicker, like a gigantic sand dune pushed by a strong gust of wind.
Sumeru Stage... Ninth grade!
In the past, An Zheng had briefly reached the level of profound strength with the help of the Blood Pearl. But that was only the power of the Blood Pearl Bracelet, it was power borrowed by the desiccated corpse. After that day, An Zheng's cultivation level returned to the third stage of the Sumeru Stage. But at this moment, An Zheng had revealed his true strength without restraint, and this was his true cultivation realm!
Sumeru Stage could be used to control the Qi, and Captive Stage could be used as a manifestation.
At this time, An Zheng was already standing firmly at the peak of the Sumeru Stage.
He took a deep breath, sucking in the remaining green streams of air into his nostrils. He exhaled a mouthful of impure air, then abruptly opened his eyes.
At this time, Ding Shengxia's aura had already weakened. Just like when he had fought with An Zheng in the past, that fear had once again returned to his heart. The fear that An Zheng brought him was simply too great, so much that it took root in his heart. Moreover, it had already grown into a huge tree, turning into the huge shadow in his heart. All of his pride and self-esteem was smashed all over the body and skin by An Zheng, again and again.
Originally, he thought that he would completely win this time, and would completely crush An Zheng with his extraordinary strength. Just like what An Zheng had done to him previously, all of An Zheng's hopes were crushed.
But when he saw An Zheng's six consecutive explosions of Qi, he became terrified and terrified. That feeling of inferiority returned once again.
When a person developed fear during a decisive battle, the result could be imagined.
The green ball of air disappeared and was completely absorbed by An Zheng. Following the rise of his realm, the large amount of heaven and earth origin energy that An Zheng required had already been turned into his own Cultivation Power.
He took a step forward, and appeared in front of Ding Shengxia with one step.
Ding Shengxia frantically raised his heavenly halberd and smashed down. An Zheng's left hand moved to support his halberd, and with a pa sound, he grabbed the pole of the heavenly halberd. An Zheng's hand released a force and his fingers tightened, as though he was pinching a viper's seven inches. A miserable howl came out of the halberd, which then turned into a ball of black Qi and scattered.
Ding Shengxia's hands were empty.
An Zheng released his hand and the black qi dissipated into nothingness.
"So it's a type of Cultivation Power, not a real devil weapon."
An Zheng looked at Ding Shengxia and said, "That person gave you a strand of his own Cultivation Power, so you thought he had obtained a supreme artifact."
He took another step forward, "But you're just a piece of trash in the end. Even if I gave you my true supreme magical equipment, you still wouldn't be able to win against me. Because your heart is filled with fear of me, you urgently want to kill me, but only because you
already fear me to the extreme. I am the devil in your heart, I am your nightmare. As long as you stand in front of me, you will forever be a failure! "
An Zheng grabbed onto the red armor on Ding Shengxia's body and suddenly pulled back. "No matter what powerful thing it is, it won't be able to help you because in front of me, your heart is weak. I will beat you once, twice, thrice, every time I will make you a loser. You are already finished, you are not fit to be my opponent! "
An Zheng pulled back, and with a kacha sound, the bright red armor was immediately torn off by An Zheng, and shattered on the ground.
A ball of golden light appeared in An Zheng's palm, like a scorching sun.
That light made Ding Shengxia feel an unprecedented fear.
"You shall be destroyed in body and spirit!"
An Zheng pressed the scorching sun in his hand down, and it exploded on top of Ding Shengxia's head.
Under the intense light, everything turned pitch black.
After the light, there was nothing.
Chapter 226 - The Wise King Sword
It was the supreme light, the scorching sun that could roast everything.
Under the blazing sun, Ding Shengxia could not resist for even a moment. Even if he had fallen into the demon realm to seek for power, he was still a loser in front of An Zheng, a loser from the very beginning. He had never defeated An Zheng before, nor did he have any dignity left in front of him.
After An Zheng killed Ding Shengxia, his body was also somewhat weak. He had opened six realms consecutively, and he looked magnificent and majestic. But as far as the body was concerned, one could imagine how great the pressure was.
An Zheng's body involuntarily swayed, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, the Cultivation Power that filled his body calmed down a little because it was vented, and the chaotic Cultivation Power within his Dantian Qi Sea calmed down gradually. An Zheng squatted down as he gasped for breath, his body trembling uncontrollably.
