573: He had to

On the Shura Killing Field, the biting cold wind of December ruffled the young man's hair.

Standing before him was a terrifying monster; just its presence, a gentle flap of its wings, could engulf the forest below in Hellfire.

But the young man, standing amidst the raging flames, showed no fear, instead staring intently at his enemy, his gaze unwavering.

All members of the Human Race who witnessed this scene felt a strange sensation rise within them.

Although Kuang Xing's oppressive Aura was strong now, making him seem incredibly fierce.

Yet, the posture of the two standing there resembled more a challenger advancing towards the highest position, aiming to seize the throne.

But the Lion King, far from being afraid, showed a hint of mockery.

Despite the enormous disparity in their physical forms.

People didn't feel that Xiao Fan showed any signs of being suppressed at all!

Instead, his calmness was reassuring.

Suddenly!

Everyone looked up abruptly, only to see two golden lights also rising in Xiao Fan's eyes!

Golden light pierced through the night, and a majestic Aura suddenly surged!

A domineering Aura instantly erupted from Xiao Fan as its center, sweeping outwards.

A hint of astonishment appeared in Kuang Xing's blazing eyes.

So that's it... No wonder Ying Zheng didn't use Emperor Power until the very end!

In the infirmary.

All the Prodigies' expressions slightly changed as they looked at Ying Zheng.

Xi He even asked in surprise, "You gave it to him?"

"He insisted," Ying Zheng pouted.

"He insisted, so you gave it to him?"

"It's not exactly like that," Ying Zheng raised his left eyebrow and said, "Sword Apprentice told me that Xiao Fan lacked a powerful Divine Element power."

"My Emperor Power is the best."

"Then he gave me his Sword Immortal Eye, and I gave him the Emperor Power; it was merely a fair trade."

But Xi He still worried, saying, "Doesn't that mean your future path to emperorship is completely cut off?"

"Perhaps?" A playful smile appeared at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth; he seemed not too concerned about the question.

Meanwhile, on the screen.

Emperor Armor already covered Xiao Fan's entire body.

Ying Zheng looked at the gleaming gold and domineering appearance, and a hint of envy actually appeared in his eyes.

So cool.

Damn, I think I regret it a little!

But this alone doesn't seem to be enough, does it?

Kuang Xing's Aura was still strong!

However, at this moment, people suddenly noticed that Xiao Fan's Emperor Armor seemed slightly different from Ying Zheng's, its appearance a bit more ferocious than Ying Zheng's.

Wait.

Someone looked closely and suddenly noticed exquisite Dragon patterns clinging to the Emperor Armor.

And those Dragon patterns immediately gave people a sense of desolation and wildness.

This was the power of the Ancestral Dragon Source Orb!

With the Emperor Armor, it vibrated the Ancestral Dragon Source Orb.

The explosive power he possessed at this moment even made him somewhat anticipate it.

But is that all?

Certainly not enough.

Xiao Fan abruptly flung his hand, his palm aimed to his side.

In an instant, thick Devilish Qi surged, condensing into an unmanned Demon King Armor on his side!

Then, he flipped his palm again, and milky-white Space power infused it, immediately transforming into an Air Demon King capable of infinitely releasing Space Laws!

Finally, he clenched his palm!

The two battle armors underwent Fusion!

People's pupils suddenly contracted, seeing black and white intertwined patterns appear on the golden battle armor.

The Emperor Armor, which originally made people feel sacred, now had a few more hints of an eerie feeling.

But it shouldn't be over yet, right?

What about the weapon?

Indeed, finally, Xiao Fan abruptly raised his arm, and an invisible, colorless power surged, but it had no physical form!

Although no one could see that power, for some reason, they inexplicably felt a little afraid.

Kuang Xing was the closest, and he instantly recognized what it was.

"Hmm? An 'Intent' condensed from Mental Energy?"

"Isn't your 'Intent' the Fire of Resistance?"

"Interesting, you have a second 'Intent'?"

Xiao Fan did not answer, merely allowed his mind to gradually enter a state of utmost composure, for he intended to fully activate the thing he desired in this battle!

That's why he yearned for a hearty battle, hoping Kuang Xing was as powerful as others claimed.

Thinking of this, he let out a long breath, his Qi deep and prolonged, like the spring breeze in March, nourishing everything silently.

Seeing this scene, people also suddenly felt an inner, spontaneous calm.

But unexpectedly.

The next second!

The fierce battle began instantly!

Kuang Xing said nothing superfluous, violently swinging the ice crystal greatsword in his hand!

Wind and snow condensed in the midst of destruction, then exploded!

A row of purple ice flowers bloomed in the sky, the roar deafening.

And this was merely a simple horizontal slash!

But at this moment, Xiao Fan's figure had already vanished, a flash bringing him behind Kuang Xing, his fists clenched, condensing that invisible Mental Energy into the outline of a heavy hammer, and a Skyfall Hammer smashed down!

But before it could even touch Kuang Xing.

The massive figure suddenly disappeared, transforming into a golden flash, reappearing beside Xiao Fan, and another sword slash swept through!

Xiao Fan continued to dodge!

Kuang Xing also continued to flash!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."

People watched the white and golden lights constantly flickering in the high sky, their gazes blank.

Everyone had assumed that with Kuang Xing's massive body, his mobility would surely be low.

But it seemed they had all forgotten that Kuang Xing's current true form was light!

The speed of light is second only to time and space.

The greater the distance traveled, the greater the spatial advantage.

But now, this vast Shura Killing Field was already too small for the two of them, so their speeds were infinitely close!

People couldn't see the true forms of either, only the suddenly flashing sword light, the ground frozen at some unknown moment, a distant explosion of destruction, and the faint, shimmering light of ghosts and gods.

Most conspicuous was the Hellfire spread across the entire ruins.

These were all traces left by Kuang Xing!

What about Xiao Fan's?

Suddenly.

Kuang Xing's figure appeared in the center of the collapsing Shura Killing Field, the energy of his blazing eyes condensing in his pupils, and two terrifying lasers instantly shot out, spanning tens of thousands of meters in a flash, instantly collapsing the ancient wall at the edge of the battlefield!

Immediately after, Kuang Xing's body rapidly spun in a circle.

His blazing eyes swept across the battlefield!

The walls of the Shura Killing Field were all blown to smithereens!

And at this very moment, Kuang Xing suddenly looked up, only to see a milky-white light flash by, as Xiao Fan, carrying an invisible giant hammer, smashed towards his head!

Kuang Xing also swung his sword upwards!

"Boom!"

Sword and hammer collided, the explosion deafening!

Qi waves surged across the ground, and the battlefield instantly collapsed a second time!

Kuang Xing frowned slightly; Xiao Fan's "Intent" was even more solid than he had imagined.

But the problem... Suddenly, he sharply looked down, only to see a Demon King Dagger piercing through his abdomen!

His pupils suddenly contracted; without time to think much, he swiftly transformed into a streak of light and retreated a thousand li!

After landing steadily, he looked ahead with a solemn expression.

But there was no one in sight!

He had vanished!

No, he had clearly seen two Xiao Fans just now!

One was clashing with me above my head, and one was ambushing me from behind!

What exactly is going on?

Putting those thoughts aside for now, he used the Tree Ancestor's power to quickly heal the pierced wound.

Fortunately, there was no Fire of Resistance attached to it!
