Monarch of Time

Chapter 891 Fortune and missfortune (3)

''Boooooom!''

The final attack of the 'heavenly roc' seemed to contain all of its pent-up anger and pride, as well as its remaining unwillingness and killing intent, as a massive, snow-white lightning bolt slammed down on Shun Long's spiritual space with a huge bang, causing the entire space to tremble!

''Crackk!''

As he took in this attack, even Shun Long couldn't help but cough a mouthful of blood, as the cracks in his spiritual space started to expand rapidly in all directions!

It was obvious that although his soul was still unharmed, the damage in his spiritual space wasn't negligible, as another wave of pain overcame him in an instant.

It truly seemed like the accumulated damage was so high, that his spiritual space could collapse at any moment.

And yet, Shun Long didn't seem to have noticed any of this, as his entire attention was captured by a single, white spark of lightning that had yet to completely disperse and was still crackling inside his spiritual space.

Although its power was slowly weakening and it was still trying to destroy everything around it, Shun Long still stared at the single spark of lightning with an enamored look, as if it really held some kind of irresistible allure, that made it hard for him to look away!

''I wonder if it's really possible?''

A sudden thought soon sprung up in his mind, making even Shun Long's heart stir!

...

It was only a few moments later, after the 'heavenly roc's' last wisp of energy had completely disappeared from his spiritual sea, that Shun Long finally opened his eyes!

At the same time, as the black thunderclouds above the 'City of Immortals' started to vanish, in the distance a few hundred meters away from Shun Long, Jiang Chen's veil of darkness suddenly dispersed, revealing the scene inside.

Shun Long's eyes slightly widened as he saw an exhausted Jiang Chen struggling to keep himself on his feet.

His handsome features were completely contorted and even his long black hair appeared disheveled, but despite his exhaustion, it was impossible to hide the raging killing intent in his eyes as he stared at a certain group of 5 in the distance.

Following Jiang Chen's gaze, Shun Long's eyes gradually fell on Bai Longtian and then Xingyi.

Surprisingly, Bai Longtian's condition was even worse than Jiang Chen's.

Bai Longtian's figure had already turned into a 10-meter(33ft) tall giant buddha, while his entire body was glowing with a bright golden light, making it obvious that he had already gone all-out, activating his 'Golden Buddha unique physique'.

However, even with the terrifying defenses of his unique physique, Bai Longtian's condition was undoubtedly the worst out of everyone present!

His left arm appeared completely mangled, as if it had been struck by hundreds of sword slashes simultaneously, while his aura was extremely weak as well. The rest of his body was also filled with countless wounds, and although they weren't as bad as the injury in his left arm, they couldn't be ignored either.

It was obvious that Bai Longtian had already gone through an extremely gruesome fight.

As for the old man who was standing in front of him and was clearly emitting the aura of an early-rank 9 Dao King, aside from the tiny amount of blood trickling from his lips, he appeared completely unharmed!

In fact, the old man's eyes betrayed a look of surprise that instantly turned into joy when he noticed that the dark veil around him had started to disappear.

Clearly, this had been his biggest hindrance this entire time, as it had been severely restricting his eyes as well as his soul sense. Otherwise, how could an early rank 9 Dao King like him have failed to deal with a paltry little middle-stage Dao King like Bai Longtian?

As for Xingyi, she was actually blocking the green-robed young woman called Liang Bao, who was already looking for a way out of Jiang Chen's 'Kingdom of Darkness' for a while now.

Although Xingyi hadn't suffered any obvious injuries in this fight, a frown could be seen on her peerlessly beautiful face as she stared at the green-robed woman in front of her!

Clearly, although Liang Bao had failed to injure her, Xingyi knew that this was mostly due to the defensive abilities of her 'Vanishing Shadows unique physique', as well as her peak 1-star armor.

However, Liang Bao's own skills were nothing to scoff at either. No matter what Xingyi tried, she found it nearly impossible to penetrate through her defenses and severely wound Liang Bao either.

Of course, this could be attributed to 2 things. Firstly, Liang Bao's own skills were more oriented towards defense rather than offense. In fact, among the 5 early rank 9 Dao Kings in her group, she was undoubtedly the one with the best defensive abilities! Secondly, she was already prepared for a fight from the beginning, and her cultivation base was a good amount higher than Xingyi's, so it was extremely hard to inflict upon her any serious injuries.

This was why, other than a few shallow wounds, Liang Bao was actually completely unharmed.

In fact, her condition was much better than the old man who was fighting Bai Longtian!

Of course, whether it was Liang Bao, or the old man who was fighting against Bai Longtian, neither of them could truly contain the shock in their hearts as they fought their opponents.

In the beginning, they had viewed Xingyi and Bai Longtian as nothing more than two insignificant middle-stage Dao Kings!

Even if they were geniuses who were talented enough to have entered the 'realm of masters', their cultivation bases were still too low to contend with early rank 9 Dao Kings like them.

This was simply a gap in cultivation that couldn't be bridged with talent alone!

However, as time passed, the two early rank 9 Dao Kings started to become increasingly shocked.

Once they realized that the 2 'random' people they were facing had not only entered the 'realm of masters', but they had also comprehended a Unique-level Dao each, and they even possessed a unique physique, they could no longer believe their eyes!

Even back in the central region, people at their level would be core figures even among the first-rate factions of the central region. They would be monsters that those factions would go all out to nurture, since it was only a matter of time before they entered the Dao Emperor, and even the Sovereign realm in the future!

Yet, how could so many monsters be gathered in one group?

It was already one thing for them to accept that Shun Long had somehow entered that 'legendary realm' above the 'realm of masters' and had even invoked a heavenly tribulation while he was still inside the 'City of Immortals', but now a group of monsters had also appeared by his side?

However, Liang Bao and the old man by her side barely had enough time to gather their thoughts while they stared at their opponents, before a sudden scream filled with uncontrollable pain and killing intent entered their ears

''AAAAAAARGH!''
