He frowned, and with a slight tremor of the longsword in his hand, Primordial Qi surged from his body, racing through his meridians and frantically pouring into the Sword Body.
The cyan longsword suddenly grew faint and indistinct, flickering unsteadily. Its size swelled by more than tenfold, and the Sword Body became wreathed in tangible vortexes of wind. The very space around it began to ripple violently.
"Xia Liu, Le Qian, hold it back!"
Feeling the terrifying hurricane brewing in mid-air, the others knew Lei Hao was unleashing powerful Martial Arts. They all nodded at once, their attacks growing even more ferocious as they worked to pin down the Flaming Three-Headed Dog and keep it from disturbing Lei Hao while he gathered his power.
The Flaming Three-Headed Dog also sensed the terrifying might and Powerful Qi gathering in the sky. The sheer intensity of the energy made the fur all over its body stand on end, and a vicious roar erupted from its maw.
Instantly, a torrent of red flames erupted, blasting outward in every direction. Boulders in its path were incinerated to dust the moment the fiery waves washed over them.
Seeing the red flames rushing toward them, Xia Liu, Le Qian, and the others were sent scrambling, retreating again and again.
Having forced back Xia Liu, Le Qian, and the others with a single attack, a savage grin seemed to twist the Flaming Three-Headed Dog’s features. It slammed a paw into the earth, the immense impact cracking the ground.
Then, the massive form of the Flaming Three-Headed Dog rocketed into the sky, appearing high above in an instant. At that moment, Lei Hao was using the Wind Profound Qi to continuously channel vast amounts of Primordial Qi into his cyan longsword.
As the Primordial Qi flowed into it, the cyan longsword flared with brilliant light and emitted a soft, clear cry that stirred the Heart Spirit.
The Flaming Three-Headed Dog bared its fangs at Lei Hao, killing intent flaring in its six blood-red eyes. It swiped a sharp claw viciously at Lei Hao’s head. By the look of it, if that blow landed, no matter how formidable Lei Hao’s strength, his brains would undoubtedly be splattered everywhere.
"Oh no..." Yann Chuxue couldn’t help but mutter, as if she could already see Lei Hao’s gruesome fate.
However, just as Yann Chuxue was despairing, Lei Hao’s aura suddenly exploded outward again while he was still in mid-air. His speed skyrocketed, and his body shot upward, nimbly dodging the Flaming Three-Headed Dog’s attack.
’Destruction Realm Ninth Layer Heaven?’ Wen Qingye was taken aback. He never expected Lei Hao to have hidden his power so deeply.
It wasn’t that Wen Qingye couldn’t see through Lei Hao’s power, but he had never expected the man to be concealing his true cultivation, so he simply hadn’t paid him any special attention.
Gazing blankly at Lei Hao’s proud figure standing in the air, the others below were stunned into silence.
None of them had expected it. Just a moment ago, Lei Hao’s cultivation had clearly been at the Destruction Realm Eighth Layer Heaven, but in the blink of an eye, it had become the Destruction Realm Ninth Layer Heaven. It was simply unbelievable.
"Cyan Martial Chaos!"
As the others stared in astonishment, Lei Hao, high in the air, parted his lips and barked a cold command.
As his voice faded, the others felt the wind flowing through the valley suddenly freeze. Then, a gale erupted, and an incredibly potent mass of Primordial Qi rapidly converged in mid-air.
In the blink of an eye, the Primordial Qi finished coalescing. It then tore violently through the air, creating a piercing shriek that lingered in everyone’s ears like a scream.
WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!
A blurry cyan shadow, imbued with incredibly powerful winds, shot down from the sky. Although the shadow was indistinct, one could still faintly make out its general shape: a cyan longsword forged from Primordial Qi.
Moreover, the longsword was incredibly fast. Judging by the vortexes of wind constantly churning on its surface, it seemed to be an object formed from Primordial Qi compressed from a raging gale. Such dense Primordial Qi, combined with the execution of the Martial Art, made its power truly terrifying.
The target of the giant cyan sword was none other than the Flaming Three-Headed Dog. The beast had propelled itself into the sky, but now, with no solid footing, it couldn’t dodge as freely as it could on the ground.
Thus, even though the Flaming Three-Headed Dog could feel the terrifying power of the giant cyan sword descending upon it, there was nothing it could do.
At once, all three of the Flaming Three-Headed Dog’s heads let out low growls. Streams of red light began to flow from deep within their throats, surging forth and constantly condensing into a massive, red ball of Primordial Qi.
The moment the flames finished gathering, the piercing shriek of the incoming attack arrived. The Flaming Three-Headed Dog’s three great mouths simultaneously blasted the ball of fire forward.
The two attacks collided violently. The others heard a thunderous BOOM from the sky, and the massive fireball was knocked aside, ultimately smashing heavily into the rubble not far from the valley entrance.
The Flaming Three-Headed Dog crashed to the earth like a falling star. The terrifying force of the impact blasted a massive trench—a full five zhang wide—into the ground. Cracks as thick as a man’s arm spiderwebbed out in all directions, extending deep into the Redwood Forest.
ROAR!
A weak, hoarse roar echoed in the group’s ears, snapping them out of their stupor.
Xia Liu and the others quickly moved to flank the distant Flaming Three-Headed Dog, their Primordial Qi churning wildly in their Qi Seas as they prepared to prevent its escape.
A dark figure drifted down from the sky, landing steadily on a large boulder. Everyone looked over and saw that it was Lei Hao, his face now somewhat pale.
His aura was currently unstable, and his clothes were in tatters. He was clearly not lightly injured.
Lei Hao gave the others a wry smile. "That Flaming Three-Headed Dog is just too terrifying. Even with the few moments you bought me to unleash my Emperor-grade High-level Martial Art, not only did I fail to kill it, I ended up getting seriously injured myself."
A flicker of surprise entered Mo Qing’s beautiful eyes. She looked at Lei Hao and asked in a low voice, "The way I saw it, Brother Lei, that last attack of yours should have been enough to kill the Flaming Three-Headed Dog, right?"
Hearing Mo Qing’s words, Xia Liu, Chen Xi’Er, and the others quickly looked toward the cloud of dust. They all strained to listen for a moment but found that there wasn’t the slightest sound. Faint traces of joy, mingled with a sliver of confusion, appeared on their faces.
Yann Chuxue looked at Wen Qingye and whispered, "That’s impossible. By all rights, we should still be able to hear it struggling."
"Mm, let’s just watch quietly," Wen Qingye said with a nod and a smile. He then glanced over at Lei Hao, his mind sinking into contemplation.
