627: Victory

Chen Xuan's shadow seemed to come alive, slowly rising from the ground in a strange posture, rapidly stretching and twisting, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a dark figure identical to him.

The dark figure's eyes flickered with a cold light, revealing endless killing intent.

Before Chen Xuan could react, the dark figure charged at him like a ghost, moving even faster than the Dragon Punch Chen Xuan had just used.

The dark figure's fist, enveloped in a dense dark Aura, aimed directly at Chen Xuan's chest. Chen Xuan inwardly cried out in alarm; in a hurry, he could only raise his arm to block.

“Bang!” With a muffled thud, Chen Xuan was sent flying by this powerful force, crashing heavily into the wall behind him. The runes on the wall flickered, seemingly affected by the impact.

“Interesting, it seems I underestimated your Law power!”

Chen Xuan endured the pain and struggled to his feet, gaining a deeper understanding of the Shadow Law's Weird.

“Do not underestimate any Law power. Your arrogance will destroy everything you have!” The old man’s voice came, carrying a hint of advice.

“In this world of shadows, your every move cannot escape my control. Your shadow is also my sharpest weapon!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan took a deep breath, calming the surging spiritual power within him.

He knew that he could not panic now; he had to calmly think of a countermeasure. His gaze moved back and forth between the old man and the dark figure, trying to find their weaknesses.

Suddenly, Chen Xuan noticed that before each attack from the dark figure, the old man's eyes would unconsciously glance downwards slightly, as if he was controlling the dark figure through some hidden means.

Chen Xuan's heart stirred, realizing that this might be the key to breaking the situation.

He feigned being attacked by the dark figure again and stumbled backward, but secretly, he activated the immortal power within him and quietly set up a small spiritual power trap at his feet.

The trap contained his initial comprehension of the Fire Law, and once triggered, it could temporarily disrupt the surrounding light and shadows.

Seeing this, the dark figure thought Chen Xuan was at the end of his rope and charged again like lightning, its fist, enveloped in dark Aura, aiming directly at Chen Xuan's throat.

Just as the dark figure was about to touch Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan suddenly dodged to the side, simultaneously activating the spiritual power trap beneath his feet.

In an instant, the space around the dark figure became distorted and fluctuated, and a ball of flame slowly emerged. However, the dark figure's form did not dissipate; instead, its movements became slow and chaotic, and its originally rapid attack rhythm was completely disrupted.

The old man noticed the anomaly, his expression changed, and then he nodded.

He tried to regain control of the dark figure but found that his connection with it became intermittent.

Chen Xuan seized this excellent opportunity, the Fire Law surged within him, and his palm was instantly enveloped in blazing flames. Golden runes were faintly mixed within the flames—that was his unique power, a Fusion of immortal power and the Fire Law.

Chen Xuan shouted loudly, unleashing the “Blazing Sun Demonic Palm” he had learned in his spare time, striking heavily at the dark figure with rolling heat waves and a world-destroying Aura.

“Boom!” With a loud bang, the dark figure was instantly engulfed by flames under this powerful attack, turning into countless black ashes and dissipating into the air.

The old man watched as his Shadow Law was broken, a smile appeared on his face, and then he suddenly pushed his hands forward, and the dark power of the entire shadow space surged towards Chen Xuan like a tide.

Chen Xuan was fearless. He circulated the Fire Law and immortal power to their extreme, forming a huge flame vortex in front of him, drawing in all the surging dark power.

Darkness and flames collided and merged, emitting sizzling sounds, and the entire space was illuminated by this intense energy clash, flickering between bright and dark.

While resisting the dark power, Chen Xuan observed the old man's weakness. He found that when the old man fully unleashed his attack, a subtle and almost imperceptible thinning appeared in the shadow behind him.

Chen Xuan's heart swelled with joy; this was a momentary imbalance in the old man's power.

Then Chen Xuan took a deep breath, gathered all the power within him into his right fist, and unleashed the strongest form of Emperor Dao Shattering Star Fist—“Shattering Star Annihilation Fist.”

Golden flames burned on his fist, carrying a world-destroying Aura, and blasted towards the old man's back.

The old man sensed the danger behind him and tried to dodge, but it was too late. Chen Xuan's fist, with its powerful force, directly penetrated the thin shadow behind the old man and struck his back.

“Boom!” The old man fell backward. He slowly turned around, looking at Chen Xuan, his expression growing more satisfied.

“Not bad, you actually managed to find my weakness. You are very good!”

“But…”

Suddenly, the old man stopped speaking, and the shadow in his hand suddenly expanded, enveloping his entire body.

Immediately after, a powerful dark Aura erupted from the shadow, surging towards Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan felt this powerful dark Aura, and his heart tightened.

This should be the old man's final counterattack, and he had to resist with all his might.

Instantly, he circulated the Fire Law and immortal power within him to their extreme, forming an indestructible flame shield in front of him.

At the same time, he unleashed Emperor Dao Shattering Star Fist again, integrating the flame power into it, and blasted towards the old man's dark Aura.

“Boom!” With an earth-shattering roar, flames and dark Aura collided, erupting in intense light and a huge impact.

The entire 101st floor space trembled violently, and the runes on the surrounding walls flickered erratically, as if they could collapse at any moment.

As the light dissipated, Chen Xuan and the old man both stood in place, but the old man's Aura had become very weak, and his entire body flickered between bright and dark.

“I didn't expect you to be able to withstand my final blow.” The old man's voice was somewhat weak.

“You won. The Shadow Law is yours.”

As he spoke, the shadow in the old man's hand slowly dissipated, and a ray of light flew out from his hand, shooting towards Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan reached out and caught the light, feeling a mysterious power surge into his body—it was the Shadow Law.

“Actually, this is not my true strength yet.”

“With a body, I can utilize the power of shadow to its extreme, and I myself can transform into a shadow, almost Innate and invincible.” The old man looked at Chen Xuan and sighed slightly.
