Chapter 980

Ao Meng’s expression shifted minutely when he sensed the divine might emanating from An Lin’s body.

“So you’re refusing to let Xiao Ze become my slave?”

Ao Meng’s voice was like a clap of thunder, making the entire space around him to tremor and waver.

An Lin pulled out his Evil-Slaying Sword and took a deep breath. “I’ve already told you that you’re NOT WORTHY!”

He refused to listen to reason and thrust two options upon An Lin. Did he really think An Lin would be so easy to walk over?

“Master, I’ll fight by your side!” Xiao Ze stood beside An Lin with a firm expression on his face.

Not only that, but Tina and Xue Zhantian also stood by An Lin’s side, clearly to battle with him as a team.

“Hehe, you really think a few Return to Void Stage cultivators are enough to oppose me?

“I’ll show you just how much of a disparity there is between a Return to Void Stage mighty figure who has mastered the power of the divine dao and one who hasn’t! Regardless of whether you have one or ten Return to Void Stage mighty figures come at me at once, it makes no difference whatsoever!”

Ao Meng focused his gaze on An Lin, and over a hundred bolts of purple lightning suddenly shot forth from the lightning tornados around him before piercing through the air toward An Lin with the fearsome power of the divine dao!

He had unleashed his power of the divine dao from the get-go and was clearly trying to silence An Lin forever.

In the face of these monstrous bolts of lightning, An Lin’s expression remained unchanged as he clasped his hands behind his back. The bolts of purple lightning changed directions all of a sudden and hurtled toward Ao Meng with even greater force!

“What?!” Ao Meng’s expression shifted drastically, but he also reacted quite quickly as he immediately materialized a barrier before him. “Divine Lightning Barrier!”

And then, the Divine Lightning Barrier exploded in Ao Meng’s face…

Boom boom boom!!!

Following the explosion of the barrier was a terrifying barrage of over a hundred bolts of purple lightning, each of which were imbued with the power of the divine dao.

Ao Meng’s enraged roars and anguished wails reverberated between heaven and earth.

All of the Dragon Tribe cultivators were dumbstruck upon seeing this. They were waiting for their Dragon King to abuse the crap out of the sect leader of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, only for the roles to be reversed!

What the hell was going on?!

The Four Nine Immortal Sect cultivators were spurred on greatly by this opening exchange, and all of them let loose cries of excitement and encouragement.

Upon seeing Ao Meng using a lightning technique, Xiao Ze and the others didn’t even have to look to predict the result.

The dust slowly settled.

Ao Meng’s disheveled figure was revealed, and he panted heavily as his white robe was draped over him in tatters, revealing large patches of charred black skin underneath.

“Hehe… I had forgotten your title as the Lord of Transcendence. You must be able to control my lightning too if you’re able to control divine lightning. That being the case, I’ll just have to crush you without using lightning!”

Ao Meng suddenly let loose an almighty roar as white mist permeated through the air within a radius of several dozen kilometers around him. A series of powerful water dragons with ferocious expressions began to emerge before circling through the air and baring their fangs at An Lin.

“All of you go protect the disciples of the Four Nine Immortal Sect. I don’t need your help for the time being,” An Lin instructed his beast pets and disciple.

“But Master, you’re up against the Return to Void Final Stage Dragon King!” Xiao Ze was a little anxious.

“Do you not believe in your master?” An Lin turned to him with a confident smile.

Xiao Ze opened his mouth, but he didn’t say anything further in the end.

“There are still two Dragon Tribe mighty figures that you all have to be mindful of,” An Lin cautioned. “As for the Dragon King of the East Sea… Just me alone is enough to take him down!”

“Roar!”

Several blue water dragons tens of thousands of feet in length let loose enraged roars before crashing down upon An Lin with unstoppable force.

An Lin stepped forward and leaped into the air to meet the water dragons.

His body was impossibly insignificant in the face of the water dragons and was instantly submerged by the boundless sea of water as heaven and earth were transform into a vast ocean.

“Well, that makes my job easier.” A smile appeared on Ao Meng’s face as he abruptly clapped his hands together.

The blue water dragons began to converge with terrifying ferocity as they unleashed attacks that were imbued with Ao Meng’s observation of the divine dao.

Even a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure would be injured by attacks of this caliber.

A few minor wounds were inflicted upon An Lin’s body of the War God, but his expression remained unchanged as the blood within his body slowly churned and his skin became a reddish gold.

“Hmm?” Ao Meng felt like there was something wrong.

All of a sudden, a new sun seemed to have erupted from An Lin’s body.

Boom!

An extremely terrifying explosion erupted within the ocean.

Boundless flames exploded forth in all directions.

The water dragons howled in anguish as their bodies were torn apart by the fearsome explosion before being evaporated by the monstrously scorching temperatures.

“This…” Ao Meng’s pupils contracted as he stared at the scenes unfolding before his eyes in bewilderment.

An Lin’s entire body had turned into a peculiar reddish crimson as a smorgasbord of Divine Flames and a Holy Flame burned around his body, from which scorching temperatures radiated forth, making the air around him twist and warp.

However, that wasn’t the point. The main thing to be taken into consideration here was that An Lin’s aura had become even more terrifyingly powerful!

An Lin opened his mouth and exhaled a scorching breath of air.

This was the core inheritance that he had received from the Eternal Sun God of the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation, the Fire God Mode!

The power of his flames had been amplified by a hundred percent by converting his kinetic energy into heat energy, thereby allowing him to become a true Fire God!

“Now then, let me see just how powerful I am with the six Divine Flames and one Holy Flame fused into my body…”

A faint smile appeared on An Lin’s face, and he blasted forth like a fiery shooting star, leaving a sonic boom in his wake!

Ao Meng launched a palm toward the plummeting An Lin, and a vast blue palm appeared before its five fingers folded, as if it were trying to pluck the fiery shooting star from the sky.

An Lin also unleashed a palm toward the gigantic blue palm!

Boom!

The terrifying ensuing explosion sent shockwaves sweeping through the air within a radius of several kilometers from the point of explosion.

Scorching flames exploded forth, and the terrifying force of the explosion caused the gigantic blue palm to cave in.

Ao Meng looked on in disbelief as a massive hole was smashed into the huge blue palm that he had unleashed.

In the next instant, An Lin had already appeared right before him, and the devastating temperatures radiating from An Lin’s body made it feel like he was also scorched by boundless flames.

An Lin’s eyes were bright and piercing, and his fists crackled as they struck Ao Meng’s chest at blinding speed!

Bam!

This fist had been enhanced by the Fire God Mode, which had allowed An Lin to fuse the power of all seven of his flames into his body. This fist also left a series of inky-black spatial cracks in the air before ramming viciously into Ao Meng’s chest.

Crack…

The sound of bones caving in and cracking open erupted.

Ao Meng’s eyes widened, and he threw up a mouthful of blood as his body flew through the air like a cannonball.

“Father!” Ao Mingyu let loose a cry of shock upon seeing this.

He was just about to make a move when three extremely powerful auras locked onto him.

“If you want to interfere with the battle, then we’re going to partake in it as well.” Xiao Ze fixed a cold glare onto Ao Mingyu. “I hope you’re a bit more durable than Ao Shuyu and won’t die just from a single palm.”

Ao Mingyu: “…”

Never would anyone have thought that Ao Meng would still be knocked flying by An Lin even after he gave up on using lightning attacks! A Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure was unable to defend himself against a punch from An Lin?

After launching that terrifying fist, An Lin’s body pierced through the air again as he hurtled toward Ao Meng.

“Roar! I’ll kill you!” Ao Meng had clearly been completely enraged. Azure scales appeared all over his body and his hands transformed into a pair of dragon claws as he charged to meet An Lin.

“Let’s see you try!” An Lin chortled.

He was like a paramount flame monarch with the Divine Flames and Holy Flame around his body as he flew through the air atop a sea of flames. The muscles in his arms bulged and contracted as he hurled an even more terrifying fist at Ao Meng!

Ao Meng used his dragon claws to meet An Lin’s fist.

Boom!

The ensuing shockwaves from the earth-shattering collision instantly reduced the ground within a radius of over a kilometer to dust.

Ao Meng could feel an indescribably monstrous strength flowing through his arm and into his entire body.

He let loose an almighty roar as his feet fused with the earth to lock himself in place against this overwhelming force.

A huge crater appeared in the earth behind him from the fearsome shockwaves.

One second later, the power behind An Lin’s fist was exhausted.

However, Ao Meng didn’t even get a chance to catch his breath before An Lin’s second punch fell!

Again?!

Ao Meng was completely enraged and chose to cop An Lin’s fist with his body. At the same time, his claws tore through the air toward An Lin’s chest at an even faster speed, leaving dazzling azure trails in their wake!

His claws tore through An Lin’s flames before striking An Lin’s body, upon which a sharp screeching sound erupted as five-colored divine light revolved around An Lin’s body. His attack was imbued with the power of a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure, but it was unable to tear through An Lin’s body!

Ao Meng was astonished by just how terrifyingly powerful An Lin’s body was.

“Break through!” he roared as the power of the divine dao in his claws climbed explosively.

Splat…

Blood splattered forth as six gruesome gashes appeared on An Lin’s body.

At the same time, Ao Meng’s chest caved in again from his fist, and he felt as if all of his internal organs had been shattered by the impact.

Ao Meng threw up another mouthful of blood as his body hurtled into the distance again.

An Lin was also stumbling back in retreat as the power of the divine dao wreaked havoc in the wounds on his chest, inflicting him with extremely acute pain.

However, there was no hint of timidity on his face. Instead, he let loose a hearty laugh as he rushed toward Ao Meng again.

After being severely wounded by An Lin, Ao Meng seemed to have entered a frenzied state as he charged toward An Lin with a twisted expression.
