Chapter 5652
Kai and the mysterious man each took a few steps back, their eyes fixed on each other, neither daring to let their guard down.
Kai and Liu Xue exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with determination. They knew that only by working together could they survive in this mysterious and dangerous ruin.
“Alliance Leader Liu, let’s attack from both sides and catch him off guard!” Kai said in a low voice, his tone soft yet undeniably decisive.
Liu Xue nodded slightly, her longsword flashing with a sharp, cold light. She shouted, “Alright!”
The two moved with lightning speed. Kai channeled his spiritual energy, his body radiating a brilliant light, like a blazing sun, as he charged towards the mysterious man’s right.
Liu Xue, on the other hand, leaped lightly, like a nimble swallow, attacking the mysterious man from the left.
Seeing this, the mysterious man sneered disdainfully. He rapidly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
Instantly, the surrounding black light intensified, forming countless black spikes that shot towards Kai and Liu Xue.
Kai’s eyes sharpened, and he thrust his hands forward with a powerful surge of spiritual energy, transforming into a massive golden shield that blocked the incoming black spikes.
At the same time, Liu Xue dodged the spikes with a swift movement, her longsword arcing gracefully like a meteor, aiming straight for the mysterious man’s chest.
The mysterious man sidestepped, easily avoiding Liu Xue’s attack, then swung his hand back, unleashing a wave of black energy towards Liu Xue.
Liu Xue reacted quickly, lightly touching the ground with her toes and floating backward, avoiding the impact of the energy wave.
“Is that all you’ve got?” the mysterious man mocked.
Kai sneered, “Don’t be so smug!”
With that, he rapidly changed hand seals, chanting ancient incantations. The surrounding air began to vibrate violently, and golden runes flew from his body, weaving together in the air to form a massive golden magic array.
“Go!”
Kai shouted, and the golden magic array pressed down on the mysterious man.
The mysterious man felt the immense pressure from the golden magic array, his expression slightly changing. He formed hand seals again, attempting to resist the array’s attack.
However, Kai’s golden magic array was incredibly powerful, and the mysterious man’s resistance seemed somewhat strained.
Just then, Liu Xue seized the opportunity, letting out a sharp cry as her longsword erupted with dazzling light. She unleashed the Earthly Fiend Alliance’s ultimate technique, “Earthly Fiend Sword Shadows,” sending a series of sharp sword shadows hurtling towards the mysterious man.
The mysterious man was overwhelmed, having to contend with both Kai’s golden magic array and Liu Xue’s sword attacks, finding himself in a predicament.
He roared, his body flashing with black light as he tried to break free of the golden magic array’s restraints.
Seeing this, Kai increased his spiritual power output, making the golden magic array even brighter, tightly suppressing the mysterious man.
Liu Xue seized the opportunity to close in, her longsword piercing the mysterious man’s vitals like lightning.
“No!”
the mysterious man roared in despair, trying to dodge Liu Xue’s attack, but it was too late.
Liu Xue’s longsword pierced the mysterious man’s chest accurately, and a spurt of black blood gushed from the wound.
The mysterious man swayed a few times, then slowly collapsed.
However, a smile appeared on the mysterious man’s face the moment he fell, though neither Kai nor Liu Xue noticed.
Kai deactivated the golden magic array, exchanged a glance with Liu Xue, and both breathed a sigh
of relief. “Finally, we’ve dealt with him,” Liu Xue said, a tired but relieved smile on her face.
Kai nodded: “Let’s go get that ancient book.”
The two went to the stone platform, their eyes fixed on the ancient book that emitted a golden light.
Kai slowly reached out his hand, and the moment his fingers touched the book, a dazzling light suddenly enveloped them.
“Ah!”
Kai and Liu Xue exclaimed simultaneously, feeling a powerful force surge into their bodies, their vision spinning, and they instantly lost consciousness.
