Chapter 2739 - 2738: The Tide Turns
Chapter 2739: Chapter 2738: The Tide Turns
Within the eerie and oppressive space of the Blood Prison Array, Xue Chen’s face changed unpredictably, and a trace of undeniable regret flashed in his eyes.
He hadn’t expected that his momentary arrogance or misjudgment of the situation would allow Macaron, who should have been an enemy, to step into the Blood Prison Array.
The pleasure of acting like a pretentious prick just now is as intense as the regret now!
At the same time, Xue Chen secretly admitted to himself that once again he had underestimated Lin Dong.
This young man always manages to showcase unimaginable strength and wisdom at critical moments, as if every setback only makes him more resilient.
And now, with Macaron’s addition, their alliance undoubtedly poses an unprecedented threat to him.
On the other side, Macaron’s and Lin Dong’s gazes met in mid-air, each seeing a sense of tacit understanding in the other’s eyes.
Macaron’s mouth curled into a cold smile, a declaration of his desire for victory and a retort against Xue Chen for underestimating them:
"This so-called Four-star Blood Emperor doesn’t seem invincible. His claim to handle both of us is nothing but a bluff. It’s time we begin our counterattack."
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong gently nodded, his eyes gleaming with a calm light.
He knew well that facing such a formidable foe as Xue Chen, any hesitation or reservation might be fatal.
Thus, he said to Macaron in a deep voice: "You’re right, it’s time to reveal our true power. Show your trump cards, Macaron. I too will do my best to attack with my trump cards. Even if we can’t kill him with one strike, we’ll use endless attrition to drag him into the abyss of death."
Macaron nodded heavily, his whole body seemingly tense to the utmost, ready to meet the impending showdown.
He took a deep breath, a wave of unprecedented power surged within him, the trump card he had long hidden for this moment of counterattack.
With Macaron’s nod, both of their momentum instantly soared to the peak, like two raging torrents stirring waves within the Blood Prison Array.
Followed by, they almost simultaneously unleashed their trump cards—around Macaron’s body swirled waves of strange energy fluctuations, the ultimate mystery he attained by fusing various bloodline powers.
While Lin Dong swiftly made seal gestures with his hands, circles of brilliant light surrounded him, it was the Dragon Blood Holy Body displayed to its utmost.
At this moment, the tide of attack and defense completely reversed.
Seeing this, Xue Chen’s face also quietly changed.
In the twisted and oppressive space of the Blood Prison Array, Macaron’s gaze was cold as the abyss.
He deeply understood Lin Dong was right; facing such blood clan experts as Xue Chen, he could no longer hold back his strength.
"Heavenly Phenomena: Dark Sword!"
With the sound of a low and ancient spell rising, he summoned the cultural foundation passed down through generations in the Dark Family. The power hidden deep in his bloodline seemed to awaken, resonating with the Law of Heaven and Earth.
The Law of Heaven and Earth, this giant condensed by Heaven and Earth Essence, appeared even more majestic under the light of the Blood Prison Array.
It slowly raised a giant arm, condensed endless darkness between its fingers, finally transformed into a kilometer-long Dark Sword, the blade emitting a gleam of devouring everything, seemingly able to cut through space, fiercely slashing toward Xue Chen’s position with the momentum to destroy the world.
At the same time, Lin Dong stood beside him, faint dragon breath surrounding him, marking the extreme bloom of his Dragon Blood Holy Body.
His eyes flickered with determination and defiance, his dragon blood boiling, and his flesh reached an unprecedented strength under the dual blessings of Limitless Transformation and Reverse Scale Transformation.
Lin Dong’s hands clutched tightly, the Infinite Force within him surged wildly, finally condensed into an invisible yet sharp Sword of Wuji.
This sword, although without substance, contained the ultimate truth of the universe, when swung, the sword light was like a dragon, cut through the sky, echoing the Dark Sword yet displaying a completely different extreme power, cutting toward Xue Chen from the right.
Xue Chen, caught between the two ultimate sword moves, showed no sign of panic.
A cold smile curled his lips, as blood light flickered around him, an ancient and powerful breath surged from his body, it was his own defensive secret method, formidable enough to resist all the world’s challenges.
Facing Macaron’s Dark Sword and Lin Dong’s Sword of Wuji, Xue Chen’s voice echoed within the Blood Prison Array, carrying a trace of disdain and arrogance:
"Do you think just with your strongest attacks you can make me submit? Remember, the tide of attack and defense has never been the only factor determining victory. Today, let me show you what truly means the unbeatable territory!"
With his words falling, a chilly smile curved at the corners of Xue Chen’s lips, fully aware the real battle has just begun.
Facing Macaron’s Dark Sword capable of shaking mountains and rivers, and Lin Dong’s Sword of Wuji embodying the universe’s truth, Xue Chen did not choose to evade.
Instead, he took a deep breath, his bloodline boiling, an ancient and mysterious power awakened within him.
"Bloodline Guardian—Blood Realm Sky Curtain!"
Xue Chen chanted, his voice containing undeniable authority.
This is the Blood Prohibition Technique passed down through generations of the Extraterritorial Blood Clan, an almost forgotten defensive spell.
Legend tells it can resist all attacks in the world, isolating the attackers outside the blood realm, like an eternal night sky, protecting the caster from harm.
With Xue Chen’s spell falling, blood light around him soared, an invisible screen instantly formed.
This is a sky curtain woven from pure bloodline power, ancient and complex runes flowing on it, glowing with a dark yet bright light.
This Blood Realm Sky Curtain, as if a world of its own, tightly wrapped Xue Chen inside, once attacks from the outside touch it, they will be devoured by this bloodline power, turning into nothingness.
Macaron’s Dark Sword, carrying terrifying power capable of tearing space, violently struck the Blood Realm Sky Curtain.
At that moment, the entire Blood Prison Array seemed to tremble, dark and blood light intertwined, the energy fluctuation from their collision like raging waves, ravaging every inch of space.
However, that seemingly fragile Blood Realm Sky Curtain stood firm like an indestructible wall, completely swallowing the cutting edge of the Dark Sword, leaving only a circle of rippling waves behind, evidencing the existence of that astonishing strike just now.
Meanwhile, Lin Dong’s Sword of Wuji followed closely, sword light like a dragon, cutting through the sky, pointing directly at the Blood Realm Sky Curtain with comprehension of Heaven and Earth Laws.
Yet, the edge of Sword of Wuji still failed to pierce through that layer of mysterious blood-red barrier. Upon touching the Blood Realm Sky Curtain, it seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, the sword light gradually dispersed, turned into nothingness.
The collision of the two swords and Blood Realm Sky Curtain, generated a power that was shocking, the entire space seemed to be torn apart by this force, yet maintained a delicate balance under Xue Chen’s control.
Standing within the Blood Realm Sky Curtain, Xue Chen’s silhouette appeared exceptionally aloof, his eyes glinting with the light of victory, seemingly silently proclaiming, a true powerhouse must not only possess the power to destroy everything, but also the defense to withstand everything.
Attack and defense, both top-notch, is the mark of a true powerhouse!
