Chapter 1012: Hong Lian Injured


    The Sacred Dragon’s Sword danced with his arms, as he wielded it. It immediately stabbed out toward the path lord of carnal desires with a terrifying presence, and the sword radiated brightly with golden light.


    Boom!


    The sword collided violently with the surging energy from the path lord of carnal desires in mid-air and immediately produced a deafening sound. Terrifying residual energy swept out, which caused the mountains below to copse one after the other. The entire Cross Mountains turned into a mess, where arge number of weaker magical beasts died due to the collision between Rui Jin and the path lord’s attacks.


    Their sh also shattered the frozen space around Jian Chen. As soon as Jian Chen regained his mobility, he had to face the residual energy. The energy knocked him away like a kite with a broken string.


    “Let’s fight in outer space, or the life on this continent will suffer,” the path lord said. With that, he shot into the sky and headed directly for outer space.


    Rui Jin turned to Hong Lian and growled, “The human Saint Emperor’s attacks of seven emotions and six desires target the soul. They can affect a person’s mind unknowingly. You still haven’t fully refined that protective bead, so only I can keep him busy. You stay here and protect Jian Chen.”


    Hong Lian nodded sternly. White mes radiated from her body and enveloped herpletely.


    Immediately, the terrifying heat spread into the surroundings and caused the temperature to skyrocket. It reached a terrifying level very quickly, as if even the air was burning.


    Through the white mes, one could vaguely see that Hong Lian had already equipped the feathermailpletely made out of plumage. It was a legacy treasure of her Divine Phoenix n, the Ninerefined Godfire Feathermail. The strengthening of origin energy had increased the defense of the treasure. It could withstand attacks from Saint Emperors and not suffer any damage.


    Hong Lian was only a Saint King at Great Perfection—it could be said that someone with this level of strength could not even flee before a Saint Emperor. However, she could contend with Saint Emperors as she possessed the offensive and defensive treasures of her n.


    “Origin energy. It’s actually origin energy again,” said Kaiser with his deep voice, as he stared at the Hong Lian wrapped in white mes in interest. The muscles on his face constantly twitched and twisted, perhaps due to the fact that he had to suppress the pain of his soul with everything he had. He seemed extremely vicious.


    Kaiser looked at Hong Lian as the light in his eyes flickered. He growled, “Little phoenix, I won’t make it hard for you considering that you’re a magical beast as well. It’s best if you don’t interfere with my matters.” With that, Kaiser tried to travel around Hong Lian in the form of a sh, as he attempted to chase Jian Chen.


    However, the white mes around Hong Lian suddenly began to churn violently just as Kaiser passed by her. It turned into a huge white phoenix in that instant, which swallowed Kaiser in roaring mes.


    “Little phoenix, don’t me me for not going easy on you since you have no idea what’s good for you. Tyrant Dragon’s Punch!” Kaiser called out angrily from within the white mes.


    With a great boom, Kaiser destroyed the phoenix condensed from the white mes with a single punch. The phoenix immediately copsed and turned into a cloud of fire in the sky. The terrifying temperature caused the space to twist.


    Hong Lian floated sternly in the sky. Her crimson hair danced in the wild wind. Suddenly, she opened her arms and cried out, “White Cleansing mes, return!”


    A mysterious force seemed to lead away the white mes after Kaiser scattered them with his punch. The mes gathered toward Hong Lian from all directions.


    “zing the void, a refinement of mes!” Hong Lian called out. She quicklypressed all the white mes in her surrounding into a fist-sized ball. Then, it exploded loudly and rapidly expanded in all directions. It formed a ball of mes ten kilometers across in the end.


    White mes filled the entire ball. It was like a sea of mes, and it was so hot that it seemed to be able to scorch anything and everything.


    Kaiser stood proudly in the sea of mes. A powerfulyer of energy had condensed around him to protect himself from the mes. Although the white fire was terrifying, it clearly posed no threat to Kaiser as a Saint Emperor.


    Hong Lian also appeared in the sea of mes. The crimson feathermail was eye-catching in the space of white mes.


    “Little phoenix, you’re not my opponent. If you’re sensible, then back off quickly,” Kaiser said coldly as he eyed Hong Lian. The origin energy feathermail protected her, so he could not harm her at all. As a result, Kaiser did not want to bother with Hong Lian anymore.


    “The refinement of mes may not be able to harm you, but it can exhaust your energy unceasingly,” Hong Lian said calmly. She slowly raised her hand as a me-red hairpin appeared bit by bit. Immediately, a mysterious and powerful energy began to radiate from it.


    “Origin energy again. God dammit, why do you people all have so many items with origin energy.” Kaiser’s expression changed slightly.


    Swish! The hairpin in Hong Lian’s hand shot toward Kaiser as a sh.


    Kaiser bellowed out, and his right hand became a powerful dragon’s w in that moment. He swung it toward the hairpin.


    Ding! With a metallic ring, Kaiser’s w actually knocked the hairpin away, while he remained unscathed.


    Kaiser’s eyes lit up. He thought, “This item with origin energy is far weaker than the Sacred Dragon’s Sword of the Dragon n.”


    Excitement sprouted within Kaiser. His fear of Hong Lian had already decreased significantly. He charged toward Hong Lian, as his right hand swept toward her in the form of a dragon’s w.


    Hong Lian could not dodge the attack at all with her strength as a Saint King at Great Perfection, so the w struck her feathermail heavily.


    The feathermail sustained no damage, but a powerful force traveled through its defense and entered Hong Lian’s body.


    Spurt! Hong Lian paled, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out. The blow knocked her entire body backward.


    “Hahahahaha, I never thought that your legacy treasure would be far weaker than the two others. I’d like to see how you fight against me now,” said Kaiser, as heughed aloud.


    Hong Lian became even sterner. She had just obtained the feathermail, and as time was too tight, she had failed topletely refine the defensive treasure before she hurried over. This prevented her from using the maximum power of the two treasures.
