Massive spheres of electricity began to discharge, the powerful current causing the hair on Zhang Tiansheng's body to stand on end, as if he were suffering from an electric shock.
According to Taixuan's calculations, as long as both maintained their current speed, it would take only about one-third of the time it takes for an incense stick to burn for him to completely overtake Xuantong.
At this moment, I collapsed in a sorry state, yet I kept my hands held high, terrified of dirtying the bath towel.
No one cares about the process of a battle; they only care about the result. That is the only thing that matters to everyone.
"Hey, you've been so well-behaved for two days, are you feeling restless?" Ye Rou whispered, biting my ear while draping one leg over my body.
The teleportation array of the Hell of Slaughter was formed by a massive black vortex; at first glance, one would never guess that this was the legendary portal.
"Didn't you say his martial arts cultivation and combat prowess were formidable? What if he really decides to force his way in? Can Captain Gao and his team hold him off?" Xue Ninglu asked with a look of worry, deeply concerned for the safety of her father, Xue Hong.
To fly, to fly, only to fly, to soar to the highest reaches of the sky to behold what lay in their hearts—those were the phantasms of their imagination, and now they were going to verify such conjectures.
Wu Gang’s heart surged like a stormy sea. The power of that elemental missile just now was truly overwhelming. If he hadn't had the foresight to use the rabbit monster as a human shield, he would have been reduced to cosmic dust himself.
This group of people headed straight for the nearest northern gate, clearly intending to break through and escape while the Zerg were in the midst of breaching the city.
"Since the Venerable has safely emerged from the Netherworld, our duty is fulfilled. We shall take our leave." The resonant voice of the Right Minister, who remained unseen, echoed from the horizon. Soon after, Yu Langqi and the demonic army vanished into thin air.

"You really are a spendthrift! At your age, to have your uncle paying for your lodging and meals—if the old man knew you were behaving like this, he would surely be furious!" Liu E sneered at Yun Zhen with a wicked smile.
However, they promised not to expose Huo Ziyin directly. Shangguan Wan'er, finding the sight of Huo Ziyin a headache, naturally wouldn't offer any help and simply headed into the mountains, returning to where she came from.
Fan Zhao hurriedly pulled Yan Shiyu down to her knees, reporting, "We commoners did not know the Emperor had arrived; we beg for your forgiveness." Upon hearing it was the Emperor, Hong'er's legs turned to jelly and she trembled all over, unsure whether this spelled doom or fortune.
Every thread of spiritual energy shot from his third eye contained a seed of consciousness. Once these seeds struck a target, they would transform into a nodule on the victim's body—invisible to the naked eye but detectable through spiritual sense. It was through these nodules that Shiva-Wa remotely controlled those he parasitized.
The group stopped laughing, imagining the overwhelming flood, endless and vast, submerging even the high mountains—a scene of indescribable terror.
Both men were shirtless. He Liu-hun wore tight-fitting trousers, while his opponent wore shorts. He Liu-hun hadn't fully entered his combat rhythm, but his opponent lunged forward in a fierce tackle. He wrapped his right arm around He Liu-hun's waist, gripped his hip with his left hand, and attempted a trip to bring him down in one swift motion.
Yun Zhen changed into a clean battle robe, but he lacked a helmet, as he disliked having his head constrained. He handed the helmet to Xue Ji, telling her that he would have her place it on his head himself when he returned victorious.
Qi Di clearly came with the intent to test him, probing to see if Li Muye was qualified to be introduced to the Nightless City.
The insular Feng Mo-shen seemed quite proud of his own stagnation; he could never have imagined that it would only serve as a laughingstock.
Upon hearing this, the members’ breathing quickened, their faces flushed, and they were filled with immense excitement.
The young man in white smiled slightly and said, "Miss, are you alright? ...Miss?" It took several grand calls before Zihan, who seemed lost in a dream, was finally roused.

In her ears, there seemed to be the mournful wailing of desolate horns and the echoing roar of battle cries that shook the heavens; before her eyes, there seemed to be banners fluttering like a painting and brave figures charging fearlessly forward.
Luo Tian did not hesitate and agreed immediately. Wan Ji'an, standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled, wondering what grounds Luo Tian had to offer such a "soaring to the heavens" condition.
Qin Yu shifted his position slightly, the biting wind of the punch grazing his ear before landing heavily on the crystal pillar he had been leaning against, causing the indestructible stone to crack instantly.
"But why have I never heard of this before? Or could it be that what I felt just now was merely an illusion, and in reality, my physical strength has not increased at all?" Bai Fan’s eyes flashed with an unprecedented intensity as he gazed at the Primordial Spirit Spring, his expression flickering with uncertainty.
Imperial Physician Li was pressing on Zhou Long's philtrum; blood stained Zhou Long’s lips and a vivid red smear marked his snow-white collar.
Luo Sen felt as if struck by lightning, trembling all over. He paused, holding his breath for several seconds, before looking down in disbelief at the slender, delicate, yet at this moment, deadly tree vine.
Zhang Ning remained composed. After speaking with Prince Zheng and taking his leave, he immediately ordered someone to investigate Deng Zhicheng as soon as he boarded his carriage.
"Thank you." The middle-aged man gave a bitter smile. Had they known that China would dispatch such a powerhouse, they would never have set foot on Chinese soil.
For instance, True Person Tianji had always hoped that the evil immortal would eventually draw the attention of the Immortal Realm and be dragged away by immortals dispatched for that purpose. As for the Heaven-Opening Sword Sect, they merely tried to endure until that day, never having considered taking on the evil immortal themselves.
