371: Hammer to death

Boom!

Purple lightning descended from the sky, streaking across the horizon and landing behind Zhou Xiutong.

A massive phantom slowly emerged from within the lightning.

"Merge!" Zhou Xiutong whispered softly.

However, the giant phantom behind her did not merge into Zhou Xiutong's body as it had before. Instead, Zhou Xiutong's own body slowly floated upward, merging into that incredibly massive phantom behind her.

Zhou Xiutong's floating figure slowly blended into the phantom. The phantom gradually transformed from illusory to solid, becoming a towering, purple giant about a hundred zhang tall.

The giant opened its eyes and suddenly thrust out its right hand, grabbing the deep green Dragon claw that was reaching downward.

Boom! A tremendous force transmitted into Dragon Ao Tian's heart. Dragon Ao Tian was startled, wanting to break free but unable to do so.

Roar! Dragon Ao Tian hissed.

Below, the hundred-zhang-tall giant gripped the Dragon claw and fiercely smashed it downward. Lightning spread from the giant's hand, and an irresistible force dragged Dragon Ao Tian down from the clouds.

Boom! A hundred-zhang-sized deep green Abyssal Poison Dragon fell from the sky, crashing onto the earth. A massive fissure appeared.

Roar! Dragon Ao Tian felt the pain and finally broke free from the giant's hand. It soared from the Dragon pit, its tail, covered in deep green Dragon scales, striking toward the tall purple giant.

The giant turned around. Two small hammers suddenly appeared in its hands. In an instant, the small hammers grew larger. The giant raised its hands high, clutching the massive treasure hammers, and smashed them down fiercely.

Boom! The massive purple-gold treasure hammers, carrying the momentum of ten thousand jun, slammed violently onto the incoming deep green Dragon tail.

Bang! Dragon scales exploded and flew everywhere. Fresh blood flowed across the massive Dragon body.

Roar! Dragon Ao Tian let out a shrill, miserable cry, its body involuntarily crashing back onto the earth once more.

This power, this power... Dragon Ao Tian felt terror in its heart. It had not expected that she had not used her full strength before.

Dragon Ao Tian regretted it. Had it known, how could it have come to find trouble with Zhou Xiutong? But it was too late for regrets now.

The hundred-zhang-tall giant lifted its foot and stomped down toward the Poison Dragon in the Dragon pit. Dragon Ao Tian's heart tightened, and its Dragon body quickly slithered away. The giant foot landed, leaving a massive footprint, but it did not stomp on the green Poison Dragon.

"Roar!" Dragon Ao Tian opened its Dragon mouth wide, and a green beam of light shot straight toward the giant.

The tall giant suddenly clapped its hands together. Dong! The two massive purple-gold treasure hammers collided fiercely.

Boom! A massive bolt of purple lightning erupted from where the hammers met, shattering the green beam of light in one blow. The purple lightning was explosive and overbearing, piercing through the beam and striking Dragon Ao Tian's Dragon body.

Bang! Scales fell and exploded everywhere. It looked extremely miserable. Dragon Ao Tian's aura plummeted, and there was blood at the corners of its mouth and in its eyes. Terrified, it no longer cared about any shame. The Dragon body slithered away, fleeing into the distance.

"Want to leave?" "Too late!" Zhou Xiutong's cold voice emanated from the giant's mouth.

"Thunder Prison!" the giant whispered.

Between heaven and earth, dark clouds gathered, and thunder roared. Bolts of lightning descended from the dark clouds that had abruptly condensed in the high sky, striking the fleeing Poison Dragon one after another.

"Go!" The giant swung its right arm. A massive purple-gold treasure hammer plunged into the Thunder Prison, carrying the might of thousands of thunderbolts. With the speed of a thunderbolt, it slammed into the deep green Poison Dragon.

Boom! Struck by this blow, the deep green Poison Dragon could no longer resist the already powerful pressure of the Earth Domain. It was unable to fly through the air and fell within the Thunder Prison. Bolts of lightning continued to strike, adding insult to injury.

The giant strode forward. In a moment, it had arrived beside the severely injured and weak-breathed deep green Poison Dragon.

"Cough, cough~" "Do not kill me..." Dragon Ao Tian struggled to speak.

Zhou Xiutong remained unmoved. The purple-gold treasure hammer returned to the giant's hand, aimed at the location of the massive Dragon head, and smashed down fiercely.

"Stop!" At this moment, from below Sky Peak, an angry shout rang out. Dragon Ao Tian's eyes lit up, but in the next instant, it was overwhelmed by fear.

Zhou Xiutong ignored it completely. This Dragon had tried to kill her time and time again; letting it go once was already its good fortune. She had not expected that this Dragon would not repent. Since that was the case, she could only invite it to die.

Bang! The massive purple-gold treasure hammer smashed down without hesitation. Fresh blood gushed out, turning into a river. The Dragon body trembled, slowly losing its vitality.

The giant straightened up, holding the massive purple-gold treasure hammer, and turned around. Below Sky Peak, a green figure several zhang tall had a ferocious expression.

"You are courting death!" the tall green figure said.

Roar! A deep green Poison Dragon with an extremely powerful aura appeared in the air. It was none other than that Late Golden Core Stage Abyssal Poison Dragon.

At this moment, three more people descended from Sky Peak. They watched the situation in the arena as if they were watching a good show, standing scattered with no intention of intervening.

"Interesting." The Demon God Hall's Late Golden Core Stage Cultivator chuckled. The Blade God Sect Cultivator looked at Zhou Xiutong with quite a bit of admiration. Yun Chen remained the same, with a smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Hmph!" Zhou Xiutong snorted coldly. Although this Abyssal Poison Dragon was much stronger than the one at her feet, things had come to this, and she would not let herself be slaughtered. Whatever the result, she would only know after fighting.

Hum~ Just as the giant and the Poison Dragon were about to make contact, two beams of light descended from the sky. One enveloped Zhou Xiutong, and the other fell upon Yun Chen, who was wearing cloud patterns and holding a strange disc.

Hum~ Zhou Xiutong and Yun Chen disappeared from the spot.

Roar! Long Aojue roared angrily. His aura scattered, as if releasing the anger in his heart. The Demon God Hall Cultivator's smile faded, and his expression was somewhat ugly. The Blade God Sect Cultivator and the Sun Palace Cultivator were the same.

At the same time, in the Water Domain, Wind Domain, and Fire Domain, beams of light descended from the sky. Figures were enveloped by the light and disappeared from where they stood.

In an unknown space within the Xutuo Ancient Realm, the figures of Zhou Xiutong and Yun Chen appeared. Afterward, more figures appeared one after another.

"Shura Palace, Blade God Sect, Cangyue Sect..." Zhou Xiutong looked over silently.

"Fellow Daoist Mu!" Zhou Xiutong's eyes lit up. She saw a handsome-looking youth. Seventh Young Master Mu Qingli's eyes brightened, and he quickly came to Zhou Xiutong's side, feeling slightly relieved.

He had been treasure hunting in an underground palace. He had finally been about to obtain that treasure when he was enveloped by a beam of light. In an instant, he had appeared here.

Mu Qingli looked at the Cultivators appearing here; they were all at the Golden Core Stage. If Zhou Xiutong had not been here, he would have been in trouble.

Zhou Xiutong nodded at Mu Qingli. Including her, there were eight Cultivators who had arrived here. They were all relatively young Cultivators from major factions. Except for Zhou Xiutong and Mu Qingli, the other six ignored each other, each cautiously looking around.

Hum~ At this moment, a small tower materialized out of thin air from the Void Realm. Sitting atop the small tower was a three-inch-tall, round-faced boy with double buns. Behind him, he leaned against a thick ancient book.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Xutuo Heavenly Palace." The boy's expression was solemn as he spoke with dignity.
