Chapter 2738 - 2737: Regret!
Chapter 2738: Chapter 2737: Regret!
Facing Xue Chen’s terrifying strike, Lin Dong and Macaron reacted swiftly and decisively almost simultaneously.
The tension and pressure in the air seemed to freeze time.
Macaron’s eyes suddenly became deep, as if they could swallow all light.
He murmured softly, and the dark power within him surged, instantly summoning his Law of Heaven and Earth.
This was different from ordinary Laws of Heaven and Earth; it originated from the inheritance of the Dark Family, with an indescribable aura of death, as if the Death God descended, shrouding the entire space in profound darkness.
In the depths of the darkness, Macaron’s Law of Heaven and Earth slowly unfolded, its figure tall and majestic, clad in black battle armor, holding a dim long sword, eyes like an abyss, revealing coldness and ruthlessness.
At the moment the Blood Sea Mad Saber was about to strike, Macaron’s Law of Heaven and Earth suddenly swung the long sword in its hand, conjuring a massive dark shield in front — a Dark Shield.
This shield was like the deepest star in the night sky, emitting a power that engulfed all light, firmly standing in front of him, protecting him and Macaron’s true form from harm.
Lin Dong, on the other hand, chose a completely different method of defense.
He did not summon the radiant Heaven Realm Buddha-Demon Dharma Body again.
Instead, he took a deep breath, the dragon blood within him boiling, simultaneously activating the Dragon Blood Holy Body Infinite Transformation and Reverse Scale Transformation, his body seemingly covered by a layer of golden dragon scales, muscles bulging, power surging.
With the dual states’ support, Lin Dong quickly formed seal gestures with his hands, murmuring curses, an invisible temple slowly forming around him — the Wuji Defense Temple.
This temple, woven from pure mental power and infinite force, emitted a faint glow, surrounding Lin Dong, forming his strongest defense currently.
"Boom!!" In Xue Chen’s control, the Blood Sea Mad Saber transformed into two blood-colored lightning bolts, carrying destructive power, attacking Macaron and Lin Dong respectively.
One was tightly blocked by Macaron’s Dark Shield, the collision erupted with a deafening roar, dark and blood hues intertwined, as if tearing apart this space.
The other was blocked by Lin Dong’s Wuji Defense Temple, the temple’s surface rippling, but ultimately maintaining the defensive line, not allowing the Blood Sea Mad Saber’s power to penetrate at all.
At this moment, darkness and light, death and survival seemed to be concentrated on these two defenses.
Time seemed to stagnate, presenting a scene akin to a still image:
It was the two blood-colored lightning bolts transformed by the Blood Sea Mad Saber, as if being forcibly restrained by invisible giant hands, blocked by the solid defenses constructed by Lin Dong and Macaron, unable to advance further.
The air was filled with the intense smell of blood and the intertwining electric aura, causing hearts to shudder.
Seeing this, Xue Chen’s expression suddenly changed, eyes flashing with incredulous surprise.
He roared loudly: "Go!"
The voice carried endless anger and unwillingness, then fully activated the Blood Prison Array, mobilizing surrounding blood qi, as if trying to gather all blood qi from the heavens and earth here, adding even more terrifying power to his attack.
With the activation of the Blood Prison Array, the two originally powerful blood-colored lightning bolts doubled in size within moments.
And their color became even deeper, like flames erupting from the depths of hell, carrying the will to annihilate everything, vowed to break through the barrier formed by Lin Dong and Macaron.
Faced with this sudden change, Lin Dong and Macaron stood firm, their defenses like two unwavering mountains, steadfast and unyielding.
Lin Dong’s inner qi surged, continuously flowing into the Wuji Defense Temple, making the temple’s glow even more dazzling, seemingly able to illuminate all darkness in the world.
Meanwhile, Macaron’s Dark Shield, under the support of the Law of Heaven and Earth, became even more indestructible, as if it could swallow even space.
"How many skills does this Lin Dong still have?" Xue Chen was extremely shocked, eyes fixed on Lin Dong, muttering in disbelief.
Macaron blocking this strike, though unexpected for him, was within reason.
After all, Macaron was a Fourth Layer Heaven Peak Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, with unfathomable strength, and had not been exerting his full power all this time, now displaying his defensive power was understandable.
However, Lin Dong’s performance completely overturned his understanding.
Clearly only possessing Second Heaven strength, and having shown fatigue in previous battles, even his Heaven Realm Buddha-Demon Dharma Body was dispersed.
But at this moment, he actually could, by his own power, fight alongside Macaron, jointly resisting this terrifying strike enough to threaten most Third Layer Heaven Martial Artists.
A never-before-felt sense of crisis surged in Xue Chen’s heart, he realized, this seemingly young opponent possessed unimaginable potential and trump cards.
Every counterattack from Lin Dong was like a sharp sword scooped from the endless abyss, continually piercing his confidence and pride.
"He has too many trump cards, doesn’t he?" Xue Chen sighed inwardly, eyes flashing with complex expressions.
There was both fear of Lin Dong’s potential and anticipation for the change in his own bloodline through devouring him later.
In the suffocatingly tense confrontation, Xue Chen suddenly gave a cold smile, his voice tinged with mockery and disdain:
"You only know how to defend like turtles with shells? It’s truly ridiculous. Indeed, you human martial artists, in front of our Blood Clan, can only be passively beaten, utterly unable to retaliate."
He planned to first disrupt the duo’s mental states!
So-called breaking their defense, breaking the mental state is most crucial, this bit, as the Blood Emperor of the Blood Clan, he certainly knew.
These words, like sharp blades, ripped through the originally silent air, also touched some emotions deep within Macaron’s heart.
Macaron’s qi blood slightly surged within, his expression flashed with a subtle change, clearly stirred by Xue Chen’s words, anger and unwillingness quietly rose in his heart.
However, this emotion did not last long, Macaron quickly took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the inner turmoil, regaining calm and determination.
Conversely, Lin Dong’s reaction was entirely different.
Faced with Xue Chen’s provocation, he didn’t even lift an eyelash, as if the other’s words were merely a breeze passing by, inconsequential.
Lin Dong’s mouth curled into a faint smile, eyes flashing with intelligent light, he retorted: "Xue Chen, are you scared? Is it because your trump card attacks are all used up?"
"What, with just this ability, still daring to invite us together? Looks like your Blood Clan is indeed an arrogant race."
"Claiming invincibility at the same level, yet being two realms higher can’t do anything to me. This is called same-level invincible? I think bragging invincible is more like it!"
Lin Dong’s words, each like a needle, precisely pierced into Xue Chen’s heart.
His tone was calm and confident, without the slightest shake, rather making Xue Chen’s mental state show a fluctuation for the first time.
Xue Chen’s face instantly darkened, eyes flashing with undisguised anger and astonishment.
He never expected that this seemingly young human martial artist, not only having formidable strength, but also such resilient mind, able to maintain calm under verbal attack, even turning it back.
This verbal confrontation was undoubtedly a test of both parties’ mental states.
Macaron, although briefly affected, quickly recovered, showcasing a strong self-control ability.
While Lin Dong, with a maturity and wisdom beyond his years, not only wasn’t disturbed by Xue Chen’s words, but rather used the other’s method against him, causing Xue Chen’s mental state to crack for the first time.
At this moment, the battlefield atmosphere became more delicate, and Xue Chen also somewhat regretted, why did he have to be so arrogant, letting Macaron join in?
This decision seems really problematic.
He still underestimated Lin Dong!
