"Eh?"Bai Qiuxue was preparing for her death. On hearing Lu Li’s words, she suddenly turned around to look at him, only to find him very strange.
At this moment, some mysterious qi and energy were contained inside Lu Li. It was like when she saw a Fifth-rank Xuan Beast for the first time when she was little. Even though that Xuan Beast didn’t show its fangs, but its qi and energy had struck fear in the depth of her soul.
Similarly, even though there was not much change in Lu Li’s appearance but the hidden qi and energy in her body were particularly ferocious. It was like he was a gigantic beast hidden in an abyss, ready to show his fangs and tear his enemies apart.
"Whoos.h.!.+"
Yu Lingxu didn’t respond to Lu Li with words. He just morphed into a shadow and rushed over to Lu Li. Evil energy was encircling the iron rod in his hands. He smashed the rod toward Lu Li’s head with powerful force.
At the same time, the evil spirit outside of his body were condensed into many small ghost faces, circling around him, which formed a strong circle of defense.
"Lu Li, move!"
Bai Qiuxue saw Lu Li remained motionless. She couldn’t help but to shout out in surprise. Based on Lu Li’s power, if he couldn’t doge the strike, his head would be smashed into minced flesh. So she shouted out of instinct.
Lu Li still didn’t move. The silver dragon on his back shone in all radiance. The silver light in his eyes were getting brighter as well. He did something that confused Bai Qiuxue. He spread his arms, his chest was moving up and down. He took a deep breath. Then he let out an angry shout, raising his head to the sky like a beast.
"Roar~"
Lu Li opened up his mouth, roaring to the sky like a gigantic beast. He let out a roar so loud that heaven and earth trembled.
This was not an overstated description. His roar was indeed very horrifying. It seemed the entire mountain was shaking and ripples appeared in the s.p.a.ce in front of Lu Li. His roar would pierce through gold and stone, soaring to the sky.
"Ah?"
At that moment, Bai Qiuxue felt like her eardrums were going to burst so she covered her ears with her hands at once. Still, her eardrums were tingling and her souls shaking. This moment, she felt like the entire world just vanished. Her soul was shattering. The roar that shook heaven and earth resounded in her head.
Not only Bai Qiuxue, it was the same for Yu Lingxu. He had thrown away his iron rod. He hugged his head and crutched on the ground in pain. He constantly shook his head. Blood was coming out from his eyes and ears. He was the nearest to Lu Li so he was influenced the most…
"Poof~"
Zi Lian didn’t die. She just pa.s.sed out. She was forced to be awaken by this roar. After she spit out some blood, she…fainted again.
It was the same for Yu Yuhan and Ye Longyu. They were awaken by the roar from the coma and then fainted again because of the roar. Blood was coming out of their ears and eyes as well, making them appear to be ghosts.
The only thing that was not influenced was Little White. It was stills squeaking. Its little eyes were filled with excitement.
"What is that sound?"
At the foot of the mountain, numerous men were shocked. Bai Xiashuang looked pale due to her fear.
The roar came from the peak, like the bellow of a huge beast. Even though they were at the foot of the mountain, they could hear it so clearly. The ferocious qi and energy shocked everyone’s soul. This… must be a very powerful Xuan Beast, of at least the Fifth or the Sixth Rank.
"Sister!"
On this thought, Bai Xiashuang’s face was even paler. Suddenly, she broke free from Bai Rong and rushed to the stone stairs. She wanted to save Bai Qiuxue. However, she only managed to mount several stairs before she was struck by a blade of wind.
"Lady Shuang, don’t do anything!" Bai Rong quickly grab Bai Xiashuang. Then another roar came, "Retreat for three miles!"
Such a horrible and loud roar came from the peak. Who knew what it was? What if it was a powerful Xuan Beast? If they didn’t retreat, all would die.
The Young Masters and the Young Ladies of the other teams were all terrified. They all went backwards with fear. They looked at the peak worryingly.
They already felt something was off when that huge golden coffin flew away. This shocking roar made them nervous to the extreme.
…
"Bang!"
On the peak, Yu Lingxu was kicked away. This kick landed on his forehead so his face was deformed. His nose and mouth were twisted. Blood was dripping. There was even a crack on his face.
Lu Li used half of his strength in this kick. But even half was terrifying enough. Lu Li wanted to kill Yu Lingxu directly with this kick. But he wouldn’t want Yu Lingxu to die so easily so he saved some strength.
"Boom!"
Yu Lingxu fell to the ground hard. He rolled around for more than a dozen times. He came to his senses now. Lu Li kicked backward on the ground and then flew up like a sharp sword. Next, he aimed at Yu Lingxu. This time, Lu Li didn’t use his feet. Instead, he smashed at Yu Lingxu’ chest with his knee forcefully.
Yu Lingxu’ eyes hurt. Blood had blurred his vision. He could only see vaguely. At that moment of life and death, he reacted fast out of instinct. He rolled to the side and dodged Lu Li’s knee.
"Bang!"
Lu Li’s strength was too powerful. A pit appeared on the ground from which crack was spreading to all directions. He supported himself with one hand on the ground, and then turned around to kick at Yu Lingxu.
"Crack~"
Sounds of bones breaking came out. Yu Lingxu’s waist sunk to the ground. His head and legs were raised toward the sky. Blood was spring out of his mouth.
In his blood-filled eyes were killing intent. He grabbed Lu Li’s legs regardless of whatever might happen. He tried to break one of Lu Li’s leg before he died.
"Hmm!"
Lu Li added more strength to his leg and made a sweep kick which struck Yu Lingxu’s chin. Yu Lingxu was smashed away once again.
"Swis.h.!.+"
Lu Li reached out his hands to rip off the black vines coming out from the ground. Then he rolled around to the side and grabbed the Mighty Heaven Halberd. He grabbed the halberd with both of his hands, slid to the side and cut at Yu Lingxu’s head.
"No!"
At that moment, Yu Lingxu seemed to be himself again. He shouted in desperation, "No—"
"Bang!"
The halberd landed on Yu Lingxu’s head hard. His head exploded like it was just a water melon. Blood and brains were flying around. He could not be more dead.
"Hiss, hiss~"
From behind them came a gasping sound. Bai Qiuxue came to herself. She happened to see how Lu Li smashed Yu Lingxu’s head with a backhand move. She gasped. Suddenly, she felt nauseated so she bent over to vomit.
After kecking for a while, she looked to Lu Li as if something abruptly sprang to her mind. As far as she could understood, Lu Li’s fighting capacity was increased all of a sudden. Was he controlled by a demon like Yu Lingxu?
She saw his eyes glowing with silver light under the Ghost Mask. His eyes had coldness in them. At that moment, Lu Li was holding the halberd with both of his hands. He was standing up straight, like a fearless G.o.d. Bai Qiuxue lost herself in looking at him.
Sensing Bai Qiuxue’s looks, Lu Li turned around. Smile climbed to his eyes. When Bai Qiuxue and Lu Li looked at each other and she stared into his glowing eyes, she somehow felt rea.s.sured. Lu Li was still Lu Li, not controlled by demons.
"I killed Yu Lingxu, the Yu Lingxu at the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm!"
Lu Li’s eyes appeared he was confused. He couldn’t believe this himself. What was more, Yu Lingxu’s fighting capacity at the state a moment ago must have surpa.s.sed that of the middle stage of the Soul Pond Realm. He was shocked by the roar which was why he could be killed so easily.
"Dragon Roar? The Dragon Roar is so mighty!"
Lu Li was imbued in ecstasy. That roar was called Dragon Roar. It was a kind of Bloodline Skill.
After he consumed the original essential blood, a Bloodline Skill appeared in his head out of nowhere. It was like when he got the "Burning Blood" Bloodline Skill from the Bloodline Awakening. Lu Li only managed to kill Yu Lingxu relying on the Dragon Roar.
"Bloodline Skill? No—"
Lu Li suddenly remembered something. His body trembled because he never heard anyone could have two Bloodline Skills. Did his body somehow became mutated after he consumed the original essential blood?
