Chapter 224 A Battle to the Death 1

As mentioned last time, after careful observation, Chi Ying finally succeeded in discovering Kuang Zheng's flaws.

It turned out that the two sides were vastly different in strength, and Kuang Zheng was already exhausted at that time.

When he finally managed to unleash the Devouring God Technique, the suction power it produced was far less unbreakable than it had been with Zhu Zhu that time.

In fact, if Zhu Xian had been able to remain calm and composed at this moment, he could have broken free from the restraints based on his own cultivation level.

Unfortunately, Zhu Xian was far too afraid of death. When he realized that the beast core inside his body was starting to tremble slightly, he panicked and lost his composure.

Instead of concentrating all his energy into one point to break through the opponent's suction force, he squandered his energy haphazardly.

This action not only failed to free him from Kuangzheng's control, but also caused the rate at which his body's energy was being depleted to an even faster degree.

This situation further exacerbated his deep-seated fear, ultimately causing him to lose his composure.

In this way, Zhu Xian completely lost the opportunity to turn the situation around.

After careful observation, Akakage keenly spotted this loophole.

Just then, a flash of light appeared, instantly rescuing Zhu Xian.

At the same time, Lei Mang seized the opportunity and unleashed his most powerful thunder attack, "Thunderous Explosion," determined to annihilate Kuang Zheng in one fell swoop.

However, to his utter surprise, Kuang Zheng, who had been keeping his eyes tightly closed and seemed powerless to fight back, suddenly opened his eyes.

Those eyes gleamed with an unusual light as they stared intently at Lei Mang's thunderous attack.

Faced with this thunderous attack, Kuang Zheng showed no sign of panic; instead, a strange smile appeared on his face...

In fact, when Chi Ying helped Zhu Xian break free from his restraints, a mysterious power also quietly seeped into Kuang Zheng's body, causing him to quickly regain his senses from that mysterious state.

At this moment, Kuang Zheng was feeling terrified because his body was filled with a large amount of uncontrollable external energy, and he was racking his brains trying to figure out how to release this energy.

Lei Mang actually launched a close-range attack at this critical juncture, which was like someone handing you a pillow when you're sleepy!

Kuang Zheng was secretly overjoyed; he wasn't afraid at all.

In the blink of an eye, accompanied by a thunderous roar from Kuang Zheng: "Explode!"

Suddenly, the Immortal Drinking Blade in his hand was infused with boundless power and received a massive boost of energy. The blade of the Immortal Drinking Blade grew wildly at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, increasing in size by more than ten times in the blink of an eye!

The energy of a level six beast is indeed well-deserved!

Having received sufficient energy, the Immortal Drinking Blade finally revealed its basic state for the first time. The blade exuded a terrifying aura, as if it were no longer an ordinary weapon, but a divine artifact capable of destroying the world!

Kuang Zheng gripped the hilt of the knife with both hands and slashed fiercely at Lei Mang, who was right in front of him, with all his might.

In an instant, the Immortal Drinking Blade, carrying terrifying energy like a tidal wave, transformed into a roaring dragon, tearing through the sky and rushing straight towards Lei Mang.

Due to its incredible speed, the longsword violently rubbed against the surrounding air, producing a sharp, piercing roar: "Whoosh~~whoosh~~~whoosh~~~!"

The sound was deafening, echoing through the heavens, as if the entire world was trembling.

Just as Lei Mang launched his attack, the Immortal Drinking Blade arrived first, its crimson blade light instantly reaching his eyes.

Faced with this devastating strike, as powerful as splitting a mountain, even a strong figure like Lei Mang couldn't help but change his expression drastically.

It should be noted that Lei Mang was slightly more powerful than Zhu Xian, but even so, the power contained in this sudden strike far exceeded his expectations.

Its tricky angles and sudden attacks make it impossible to defend against.

However, Lei Mang was no ordinary person.

Despite the extremely critical situation, he still reacted quickly at the last minute.

Suddenly, his once strong and powerful arms underwent an astonishing transformation—tiny, black scales grew from under his skin at a visible speed, densely covering his entire palm and forearm.

These scales gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen, like an indestructible suit of armor.

At the same time, Lei Mang unhesitatingly gathered the powerful energy within his body into his hands.

In an instant, a powerful force surged in his palms, and then, his two hands, covered in black scales, emitted a dazzling blue halo.

All the movements were completed in the blink of an eye, so fast that they were almost impossible to see.

Just as the azure light reached its peak, the Immortal Drinking Blade, carrying a terrifying power capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, slashed down fiercely.

A deafening roar followed: "Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed all around, as if the entire world had been shaken by this attack.

The Immortal Drinking Blade and Lei Mang's palms collided head-on without any fancy moves, sparks flew and energy surged everywhere.

The two enormous forces intertwined and clashed, triggering an extremely violent explosion.

In an instant, the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart, and violent energy formed raging air currents that rushed around in all directions.

The moment the blood-red longsword made contact with Lei Mang's hands, it suddenly burst forth with a dazzling white light, like a blazing sun shining in the sky, making it difficult to look directly at.

A heart-wrenching scream rang out from Lei Mang's mouth: "It hurts so much!"

The screams were like thunder, echoing through the sky.

With that scream, an extremely terrifying energy shockwave swept out at lightning speed, causing strong winds and flying sand and stones wherever it went, turning the originally clear and bright world into chaos in an instant.

Everyone looked closely and saw that Lei Mang, who was in the center of the storm, had not suffered the same serious injuries as Zhu Xian.

His large hands, covered with dense black scales, were a bloody mess.

"It hurts so much! It hurts so much!!"

Lei Mang, who had never suffered such a great loss, was furious.

He shouted angrily while staring intently at his injured hand.

Looking at his bloodied hands, his eyes blazed with fury.

Although the wound looked horrific, there was no actual damage; at least the hand and arm were still attached together, showing no signs of being severed.

Moreover, despite the powerful impact, Lei Mang's body remained as solid as a rock, standing firmly in place.

In stark contrast, Kuang Zheng was not so lucky.

Because the shockwave was so powerful, and the external force that Kuang Zheng relied on ultimately did not belong to him.

This force far exceeded his capacity to withstand, so after unleashing this incredibly powerful strike, he had neither the strength nor the ability to resist this astonishing power.

Therefore, Kuang Zheng was instantly sent flying.

It crashed to the ground like a cannonball, raising a huge cloud of dust.

An incredibly powerful force, like a surging torrent, instantly invaded his body with overwhelming force.

This force seemed to possess destructive power, instantly penetrating his skin, muscles, and bones, reaching the most vulnerable parts of his body, his internal organs.

With a muffled thud, his internal organs felt as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer, suffering severe damage.

The intense pain felt like thousands of steel needles piercing him at once, nearly causing him to faint.

"Pfft~!"

With a dull thud, a mouthful of bright red blood spurted from his mouth.

The blood traced a poignant yet shocking parabola in the air, like a crimson flower blooming in the darkness. After a brief and dazzling display, it finally fell to the cold ground, splattering droplets of blood.

However, despite his severe injuries, Kuang Zheng showed no sign of frustration.

On the contrary, a long-lost feeling of joy quietly crept onto his face.

Because in that earth-shattering explosion just now, the mysterious force that had been pressing down on him like a heavy mountain had vanished without a trace.

After careful investigation, Kuang Zheng was pleasantly surprised to find that the Ten Directions Prison cast by Chi Ying had completely collapsed under the fierce attack just now.

This amazing discovery made him tremble with excitement, and filled him with boundless hope and courage.

Despite the excruciating pain coursing through his body, Kuang Zheng made a decisive move, deciding to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to escape.

He quickly focused his mind and fully activated his life-saving technique, "Immortal Steps".

With a flash, he transformed into a blurry, indistinct phantom and sped off into the distance.

However, fate always seems to play tricks on people.

Just as Kuang Zheng was about to fly away, suddenly, a deafening roar resounded throughout the entire space: "Ten Directions Prison - Bind Spirit!"
