Ling Fan quickly pulled away from Yan Xi.
Yan Xi let out a cold snort.
She didn't pursue Ling Fan.
Because she was in a predicament herself.
On the desolate and bizarre land, massive mountain ranges erupted from the ground, like the tentacles of an unnamable entity, madly lashing out at Yan Xi and Ling Fan.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Flesh and blood exploded everywhere.
Yan Xi was not in immediate danger.
However, as a peerless beauty, how could she endure such a foul scene? Her stomach churned, and she almost couldn't help but vomit.
"Isn't this the abandoned continent of Qizhou? What in the world is this ghastly thing!"
Yan Xi was thoroughly disgusted.
She deeply regretted following this person into the teleportation array earlier.
Ling Fan was about to say something to taunt Yan Xi.
But a rushing wind assaulted him.
A tentacle, like a decaying giant dragon, targeted him, nearly smashing him into the ground.
"This curse is almost fully formed. A single tentacle possesses attack power comparable to a seventh-tier Heavenly Emperor... If it's allowed to grow unchecked like this, what will happen?"
A hint of solemnity appeared on Ling Fan's face.
His current strength was sufficient to obliterate a newly ascended seventh-tier Heavenly Emperor.
But if they were numerous, he couldn't handle it.
"Let's join forces! Beautiful Yan."
Ling Fan suddenly said.
"I don't need to join forces with you. Moreover, you are an enemy, not a friend. If I don't kill you, it's already mercy. What are you thinking?" Yan Xi sneered.
Ling Fan fell silent.
He silently dealt with the ever-increasing number of tentacles.
Initially, Yan Xi was still handling it with ease.
But as time wore on, the tentacles grew stronger and more numerous, and even she began to struggle.
"What is going on? Has the entire continent turned into a monster!"
Yan Xi couldn't help but exclaim.
Swish!
A dragon-like tentacle whipped over with lightning speed. Yan Xi only managed to shield her body before feeling like she had been slammed head-on by an ancient overlord dragon.
Pfft!
A sweet sensation flooded her throat, and she spat out a mouthful of blood. Her delicate body was sent flying diagonally towards the fleshy continent below.
Roar!
The writhing flesh below suddenly opened gaping mouths, intending to swallow Yan Xi.
Yan Xi's skin crawled.
Her delicate brows furrowed.
She flicked a finger, and instantly, boundless Heavenly Emperor laws flowed. A flash of light appeared, and a bottomless chasm opened in the writhing ground.
Those gaping mouths were instantly torn into countless streams of foul blood mist.
But before Yan Xi could catch her breath.
More and more tentacles wrapped around her.
Among them, some tentacles emanated fluctuations that made her feel immense danger.
Ling Fan's situation, however, was much better than Yan Xi's.
On one hand, his cultivation realm was much lower than Yan Xi's, so the tentacles did not specifically target him.
On the other hand, Ling Fan possessed the Heavenly Demonic Eyes, which offered some restraint against these tentacles. Furthermore, the vision of the Heavenly Demonic Eyes was nearly flawless, making these tentacles appear to move at a snail's pace, making it almost impossible for them to hit him.
Ling Fan watched Yan Xi with amusement.
Yan Xi's chest heaved with anger, her teeth grinding.
Ling Fan became even more smug.
This greatly infuriated Yan Xi.
Her beautiful eyes shot out murderous glares.
"Beautiful Yan, are you staring at me because you've taken a liking to me? If our Vice Sect Master Gao Gan knew you were developing feelings elsewhere, I'm afraid he might not be able to handle it!"
Ling Fan chuckled.
"Shameless!"
Yan Xi was furious and flustered for the first time in her life.
"Heh, thanks for the compliment. Are you waiting for me to invite you to join forces? Too bad, you already missed one chance. Now you have to beg me!"
Ling Fan said with a faint smile.
"You're dreaming!" Yan Xi gritted her teeth.
"Don't answer so readily. If you don't beg me to join forces, then I'll have to deal with you along with these tentacles! After all, you are my enemy's fiancée. Dealing with you now will save me a lot of trouble in the future."
With that, Ling Fan truly swung his Wei Long Emperor Saber, cleaving towards Yan Xi.
Whoosh!
A blindingly sharp saber edge tore through the heavens.
Yan Xi was forced to the brink of desperation by this saber strike and the tentacles.
"You scoundrel!"
Yan Xi was truly exasperated.
With her strength, she could easily obliterate this person.
But now, she was entangled by these monstrous things, unable to break free, and instead found herself in danger. This made her so frustrated she wanted to spit blood.
"Beg me."
Some weaker tentacles were easily shattered by his saber strikes.
Therefore, Ling Fan was under no pressure.
"If you don't beg me soon, I won't have the patience to waste time here with you. I have important matters to attend to!"
"As long as you agree to break off your engagement with Gao Gan, I will let you go. How about that?"
Ling Fan enticed her.
Yan Xi gritted her teeth and said, "You wish! Although I never intended to marry Gao Gan, I absolutely refuse to let you, a scoundrel, have your way! I will join forces with Gao Gan to deal with you. Just you wait."
"Heh, why are you so stubborn, woman!"
Ling Fan was taken aback.
"No one can dictate to Yan Xi. Although I am just a woman, I am no weaker than any man!"
Boom!
Boundless radiance erupted from Yan Xi's body. She appeared like a peerless Moon Goddess descending to the mortal realm, untouched by any worldly dust. The tentacles, illuminated by the radiance emanating from her, hissed and emitted eerie sounds, dissolving into black mist.
Instantly, countless tentacles retracted.
Ling Fan was dumbfounded. This actually worked?
Suddenly, he thought of something, his eyes narrowing as he said, "You are a reincarnation of a Heavenly Venerate!"
"Hmph, now that you know my secret, your death is not far off."
Yan Xi became even more aloof, like a celestial moon hanging high in the heavens, keeping everyone at a distance.
She unleashed billions of rays of light, clear and bright, exuding an aura of immense sanctity. With a casual strike, those troublesome tentacles were instantly annihilated.
Just as Yan Xi was about to deal with Ling Fan.
Suddenly, both her and Ling Fan's pupils constricted as they sensed an incredibly terrifying aura descending.
Her movements froze.
She looked back.
A bizarre and terrifying figure emerged from the writhing flesh.
At first glance, it resembled a human form.
But its body was covered in blood, like a flayed dead cat. Its head had no mouth or nose, only rows upon rows of writhing, dense tentacles.
A black tail with barbs dragged on the ground.
A terrifying fluctuation, comparable to an eighth-tier Heavenly Emperor, emanated from this monster.
"This is bad, this is a clone of the curse! Damn it, a clone alone has the strength of an eighth-tier Heavenly Emperor, so this curse must have already grown to at least ninth-tier Heavenly Emperor or even stronger... How are we supposed to seize those Dao artifact fragments..."
Ling Fan immediately cried out in alarm and turned to flee. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
No matter how confident he was, he didn't believe he could currently contend with a terrifying existence comparable to an eighth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
