403: Fierce Fighting Seven Turns

Boom!

The support pillars of the underground space were blasted into fragments by the powerful force.

These fragments splashed in all directions, causing destruction comparable to bullets, riddling the ground and surrounding walls with craters.

Saul, trembling as he lay on the ground, stared dumbfounded at this explosive scene and the two figures entangled in the distance, his face filled with terror.

"What kind of monster is this guy?"

"N-no, this is bad!"

While his heart was still reeling from the shock, he suddenly noticed the two battling figures approaching him, which scared him out of his wits.

Scrambling up from the ground on all fours, Saul frantically dodged to the side.

However, just as he got up, his vision blurred, and the two figures appeared directly in front of him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!!

Amidst the violent collision of power, the scattering shockwaves slammed directly into Saul.

By the time the two figures left the area, only a mangled and broken corpse remained.

Saul, who possessed 5th Rank strength, couldn't even withstand the aftershocks of the battle between Wang Chen and Bishop Wren.

Next.

Bang! Bang! Bang!!

Piercing sounds of collision echoed frantically throughout the underground space.

Everywhere they went, the reinforced concrete facilities were as fragile as tofu; in just a few minutes, the entire area became riddled with holes, and the ceiling began to cave in.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Such high-intensity combat caused Bishop Wren's physical strength to drain rapidly, and he soon began to gasp for breath.

He had already been heavily injured while being hunted by experts from the Dragon Kingdom, making him unable to utilize his full strength. Now, sustaining a battle of this intensity caused his injuries to gradually worsen.

"Damn it!"

"How is this little beast so strong?"

"He's clearly only a Rank 4, but his physique is like forged iron, and his magic reserves are actually more abundant than mine?"

Wren grew more alarmed as the fight progressed. His attack speed and power had weakened considerably compared to the start, yet Wang Chen continued to maintain his initial output.

Even though he could still suppress Wang Chen for now, if the battle dragged on, he would surely fall into an unfavorable position.

Bang!

At the moment of collision with the longsword, Wren seized the opportunity to grab the blade and pull it toward him, while simultaneously throwing a vicious punch with his other hand.

Bang!

Wang Chen was struck in the chest and sent flying over ten meters. After coming to a halt, he violently spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yet, at this moment, his eyes were exceptionally bright, burning with a fierce fighting spirit.

"Old man, your strength seems to have weakened quite a bit, hasn't it?"

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Wang Chen's gaze toward Wren carried a hint of playfulness.

Previously, if he had been hit by one of Wren's heavy punches, he likely would have had several ribs broken.

After all, with Celestial Metal Body and Damage Transfer as a foundation, plus the eruption of the Source of Magic Power, there was still a significant gap in strength between him and Wren; he could only barely keep up with the other's movements.

But now, that punch had only made him spit out some blood.

This was a good sign!

"Don't be so arrogant!"

"Little beast, do you think you're guaranteed to win against me?"

Wren stared at Wang Chen with incredibly fierce eyes, involuntarily gasping for air. Blood gushed from the wound on his abdomen once more, and his physical strength ebbed away with every drop.

In this intense battle, Wren felt he could probably only last another ten minutes before he would completely lose control over his injuries.

"Is that so?"

Hearing Wren's words, Wang Chen curled his lips playfully.

"How much longer can you maintain your current combat power?"

"Besides, it's just the two of us here now. Your subordinates will never be able to break through my battle pets' blockade to support you."

"Old man, you definitely won't escape today!"

"Why not stop resisting? Just stretch out your neck and let me lop off your head with one strike. It'll save you some pain!"

Speaking coldly, Wang Chen stretched his limbs, his Aura still at its Peak.

While the Source of Magic Power lasted, aside from his Life force, his other attributes were essentially locked at their maximum!

Unless Wren possessed overwhelming power and could end the fight within ten minutes, he would be ground down to death!

"You... you..."

Upon hearing this, Wren's eyes turned incredibly cold, his fierce gaze like that of a predator ready to devour its prey, wishing he could tear Wang Chen apart instantly.

However, after gasping heavily, he didn't make a reckless move. Instead, he stole a glance into the distance from the corner of his eye.

Shouts of battle rang out continuously from that direction as the blue Dragon and white fox rampaged through the Saint Blood Church members, leaving chaos and severed limbs in their wake.

Many of the Saint Blood Church members seemed to have lost their minds, swinging their weapons at their own comrades.

Seeing this, Wren's eyes twitched.

He knew very well that under the blockade of the Dragon and the Nine-tailed Fox, those subordinates couldn't provide him with any help at all.

Evil Blood Nest...

Thinking of its sluggish production speed, Wren's gaze gradually sharpened.

"It seems I have no choice but to use that move!"

With a sigh in his heart, the blood-colored magic power on Wren's body suddenly surged. A dense scent of blood rose into the sky, and the violent magic power formed a winged phantom behind him.

Simultaneously, the erupting blood-colored magic power burned on his body's surface like raging flames, making him look like a demon emerging from blood-light.

"Shit!"

"I just poked him a bit, and this old guy is already going all out?!"

Seeing this, the corner of Wang Chen's mouth twitched.

Although he knew in his heart that a 7th Rank like Wren would definitely have a trump card for a Life-or-death struggle, he hadn't expected it to be this violent.

The Aura currently emanating from the man was so oppressive that the air in the surrounding area seemed to solidify, making even him feel some difficulty breathing.

"I must be extremely cautious now!"

"One moment of carelessness, and I might just screw things up today!"

Thinking silently, Wang Chen gripped his longsword and stood ready.

However, even though he had overestimated Wren as much as possible, he realized he had still underestimated a 7th Rank.

Swish!

His vision blurred, and a sharp whistling sound suddenly exploded behind him.

The distance between them was crossed in an instant as Wren appeared behind Wang Chen. Amidst the sharp whistling, a palm carrying terrifying power descended.

Wang Chen whipped around, his handsome face grim. Wren's speed was so great that he didn't even have time to use Instant Sword; he could only manage to hold his longsword horizontally in front of the palm.

Bang!

In the next second, the blood-colored palm, which looked like it was carved from jade, slammed heavily onto the longsword. Under the violent force, cracks instantly appeared on the ground beneath Wang Chen's feet, and the longsword was pressed hard against his chest.
