Chapter 368 The Shield of Fate

"Not bad, you can still withstand my spear!"

"I thought you would surely die with this spear strike! Hahaha!"

The colossal silhouette examined the blood-stained spear tip. Its consciousness swept across the void, causing sharp, resounding laughter to echo in the air.

"Just a mere spear! What is there to be so arrogant about?"

"Roar!"

Ao Yuan roared, his body suddenly erupting with golden light.

The golden light raged, engulfing him instantly.

Faintly, Ao Yuan's form could be seen undergoing a massive transformation within the golden radiance.

In the blink of an eye, the golden light receded, and Ao Yuan's form was revealed.

At this moment!

He had transformed into his true form!

A colossal being of ten thousand zhang, its immense shadow engulfing everything below.

Concurrently, a majestic dragon's might permeated the heavens and earth.

"Roar!"

Ao Yuan let out a roar, his body twisting as he charged with his gaping maw towards the colossal silhouette, attempting to swallow it.

"You still want to swallow me!"

Seeing this, the colossal silhouette's eyes narrowed slightly. "I'd like to see if your maw is sharper, or my spear is harder!"

With a soft exclamation, the colossal silhouette raised its long spear.

A torrent of dark energy surged from the spear, tinged with a striking crimson hue.

An earth-shattering, ferocious aura emerged from it.

The dark energy obscured the sky, making the mortal realm appear to have fallen into an apocalypse.

At this moment, the spear in the colossal silhouette's hand no longer seemed like a mere spear.

It was like a demon god who had slaughtered millions.

A potent aura of bloodlust emanated from it.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A fearsome burst of energy erupted, colliding with Ao Yuan and blocking his assault, creating deafening roars.

Below, the onlookers trembled, their gazes involuntarily shifting downwards.

The sheer terror of this battle was too much for their meager strength to bear, making them hesitant to watch further.

They were even fortunate that the two were fighting in the void,

and not in the water or on land.

Otherwise, the immense residual power they generated would have plunged Blue Star into utter desolation.

Of course, many national leaders were also relieved that they hadn't provoked Ao Yuan too intensely before.

For with the power Ao Yuan was now unleashing, no single nation could withstand it.

In fact, even a coalition of major powers would be powerless against him!

At this moment!

Above the void.

Dense dark energy enveloped Ao Yuan's entire head, seemingly neutralizing his offensive.

"Hahaha!"

"While you are strong, eradicating me is no simple feat!"

"Conversely, eliminating you is an easy task."

The colossal silhouette laughed wildly. This dark and bloody energy was born from the slaughter of over a million souls.

Undeniably, the dragon race was powerful, ridiculously so.

But to contend with him based solely on this was far from sufficient.

However!

Just as it raised its spear to deliver a finishing blow to Ao Yuan,

a fierce shout suddenly erupted from the dark energy.

"Disperse!"

As the words fell, the dark energy seemed to sense something and, in a frenzy, recoiled.

Ao Yuan's massive dragon head emerged, his pupils blazing with golden light, like two blazing suns.

"What? How is this possible!"

The colossal silhouette was stunned, a look of disbelief crossing its face.

Clearly,

it had never imagined that Ao Yuan could dispel the dark energy.

The aura of bloodlust was one of the most irresistible energies in the world!

And after being corroded by this aura for so long, how could Ao Yuan show no signs of change?

It was illogical, and highly so.

"You want to kill me? Today, I'll roast you first!"

Ao Yuan shouted coldly, opening his maw and spewing forth a ball of intense fire.

"The aura of Heavenly Fire!"

The colossal silhouette shuddered and instinctively tried to evade, but at this distance, it was impossible to dodge.

It was instantly engulfed by the Heavenly Fire.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Immediately, the colossal silhouette's entire body was enveloped in Heavenly Fire.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

The colossal silhouette cried out in agony, unable to suppress its pained groans.

It had never expected Ao Yuan to be capable of wielding Heavenly Fire.

Seeing this, Ao Yuan did not act rashly. He knew that this attack would not inflict significant damage.

While Heavenly Fire was terrifying, it was not entirely insurmountable for divine beings.

Just like Poseidon before.

As Ao Yuan had predicted.

"Extinguish!"

The colossal silhouette roared, and dark energy surged from its body, sweeping towards the Heavenly Fire.

Within moments, the dark energy dissipated, and the Heavenly Fire was extinguished.

Although the Heavenly Fire had not caused critical damage, the colossal silhouette's body was completely charred,

making it look like a refugee fleeing famine, a rather comical sight.

The colossal silhouette's dark eyes, filled with murderous intent, glared at Ao Yuan, roaring continuously, "You deserve to die!"

"Roar!"

Ao Yuan's dragon maw opened, preparing to spew forth another torrent of Heavenly Fire.

This time, the colossal silhouette had learned its lesson and instantly vanished.

It swiftly descended to the sea's surface.

"So afraid of death?" Ao Yuan's eyes flickered with amusement.

The colossal silhouette shook its head, not replying to Ao Yuan at all.

While Heavenly Fire couldn't inflict fatal injuries, it would still cause some damage.

Moreover, the humiliation was the most crucial aspect.

With a sneer, it declared, "Heh... If you have the guts, come down here!"

"If you don't, then scram!"

After speaking, its eyes were filled with mockery, as if to say, "Scum, is this all the ability you have?"

"I'll come down then!"

Ao Yuan chuckled inwardly, but outwardly displayed an expression of anger.

"Roar!"

Ao Yuan roared and plunged downwards, through the sea of clouds.

At this moment,

his entire body blazed with power, carrying a surging dragon's might as he ferociously dive-bombed.

Seeing this, the colossal silhouette inwardly sneered. It clearly did not take Ao Yuan's attack seriously.

It watched Ao Yuan coldly, arms crossed, its spear planted to the side, not even moving.

However,

it failed to notice the faint blue arcs that flickered across Ao Yuan's body as he descended.

"Roar!"

At this point, Ao Yuan, who was dive-bombing, had reached within a hundred meters of the colossal silhouette!

Such a distance was mere a blink of an eye for them.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Ao Yuan so close, the colossal silhouette's eyes turned cold.

Then, it raised its hand.

Boom!

Boundless dark energy exploded forth, manifesting a shield of dark energy before it!

It grabbed the shield with its hand and brought it to its front.

This was the Divine Artifact, the Shield of Destiny, a perfect match for its weapon, the Spear of Destiny!

Any power could be blocked by the Shield of Destiny.

Furthermore!

it could double the damage and return it to the attacker!

The disciples of Mount Taibai were all tensing themselves, watching the colossal silhouette and Ao Yuan.

Under the watchful gaze of all, Ao Yuan and the colossal silhouette finally collided!
