The Dragon's Breath could not be used in the soil, and even the Demon-Slaying Sword was difficult to use. Lin Yun could only speed up and chase the naked man.
The naked man is very proficient in the earth element. After touching the soil, he can temporarily liquefy the soil, so he can move very fast in the soil, which is far beyond Lin Yun's reach.
Lin Yun had no choice but to take out one of his trump cards, the Blood Spiral Dart.
After injecting Lin Yun's vitality, the blood spiral dart spun at high speed in an instant, then cut through the soil like tofu dregs, and chased straight towards the naked man.
Seeing this, the naked man hurriedly burrowed deeper into the ground, several kilometers into the ground, and even escaped the maximum control distance of the Blood Fiend Spiral Dart.
Lin Yun had no choice but to pursue him, but no matter how hard he chased, he couldn't catch up with the naked man.
With the speed at which the naked man was moving underground, it was easy to shake off Lin Yun, but he did not shake off Lin Yun and run away.
Whenever Lin Yun was about to be thrown away by him, he would stop and wait for Lin Yun for a while. When Lin Yun was about to catch up with him, he would immediately speed up and throw Lin Yun away, playing with Lin Yun like a kite.
.
Lin Yun soon realized something was strange. The opponent was just dodging at first and had no intention of confronting him head-on.
He had no intention of fighting with him, and he had no intention of escaping. It was obvious that he was just stalling for time.
But why is he delaying?
Who is he giving time to?
A white light suddenly flashed in Lin Yun's mind, and he suddenly understood everything.
…
A quarter of an hour ago, Nanxia Fortress.
Accompanied by a shrill scream, the Hacker Emperor, whose head was grabbed by Ouyang Xiu, rolled his eyes and immediately lost response.
Ouyang Xiu threw the Hacker Emperor directly to the ground as if he was throwing garbage, and then burst out waves of energy, condensing a brain-shaped martial soul behind him.
This martial spirit is obviously the martial spirit of the Hacker Emperor!
After condensing the martial soul of the Hacker Emperor, Ouyang Xiu turned around and looked at the people in the distance.
Emperor Asiba, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Nanchang, and the martial arts masters from other empires were all frozen in place and unable to move the moment Ouyang Xiu looked over.
The hundreds of thousands of soldiers who charged towards Ouyang Xiu were frozen in place as if they were petrified, unable to move even a finger.
The Polish Emperor, Emperor Gubas, Emperor Mengjiafei, and Emperor Yanxue, who were seriously injured in victory and defeat, had just taken the healing elixir for themselves and were about to stand up again, but they were just glanced at by Ouyang Xiu casually, and they were also frozen in place.
The ground cannot move.
"My body...can't move..." the Polish emperor said with despair on his face.
"Damn it...it's the Hacker Emperor's martial soul ability! We are all controlled now..." Emperor Cubas said through gritted teeth.
"Controlling hundreds of thousands of people at the same time... The Hacker Emperor's martial soul ability can be so powerful when used by him!" Emperor Mengjiafei said in disbelief.
After seeing that everyone was unable to move, Ouyang Xiu nodded with satisfaction: "Well, this martial soul ability is very useful, but I don't know if it will be effective against Lin Yun."
"With your little mental power, do you want to control my master? Just dream!" Yanlong shouted loudly at this time, instantly erupting with overwhelming heat.
Peng——!
Accompanied by an earth-shaking and terrifying loud noise, a ten-meter-diameter blue fire pillar instantly shot up thousands of meters high, directly scattering the clouds in the sky.
Seeing this shocking scene, everyone present showed expressions of disbelief.
"What... such powerful fire element energy! It's as terrifying as a volcanic eruption!"
"What exactly did he do? How did he suddenly become so powerful?"
For a moment, everyone was shocked by Yan Long's strength. And the most shocked among them was Prince Nangong.
Prince Nangong has fought side by side with Yan Long the most times and has spent the longest time together in the past two months, so he is very aware of Yan Long's strength.
Although Yanlong was stronger than him, he was only at the level of a first-level Martial Emperor.
However, Yanlong's aura at this time has become more powerful than the third-level Martial Emperor. Although it cannot catch up with Ouyang Xiu, it is not far behind.
Ouyang Xiu was not surprised. He obviously knew what was going on: "Did you burn the magic core in your body? You will die if you do this."
Hearing what Ouyang Xiu said, Prince Nangong was shocked and immediately looked at Yan Long with surprised eyes.
Prince Nangong once heard Lin Yun say that the body structure of creatures in the demon world is different from the creatures in Tianwu Continent. The creatures in the demon world do not have a dantian in their bodies, but they have a demon core that stores demon energy.
The magic core is the source of all energy, and its function is equivalent to the human dantian. But unlike human dantian, the magic core of demon creatures can burn.
In the few minutes that the magic core is burning, the strength of the creatures in the demon world will increase dozens of times.
And once the demonic core is burned out, the death of the demonic creature will come, and even the mighty powers of the gods cannot save it.
It can be said that the magic core is equivalent to the heart of creatures in the demon world, and is even more important than the heart.
If the demonic creature has no heart, it can consume the energy of the demonic core to grow the heart again. But once the demonic core is gone, the demonic creature is really helpless.
Although Yanlong is only half a demonic creature, the importance of the demonic core to him cannot be banned. And now that he chooses to burn his demonic core, it is tantamount to sacrificing his own life.
Thinking of this, Nangong couldn't help but clenched his fists and looked at Yan Long with eyes full of regret and sadness.
If we want to say who has the deepest bond with Yan Long besides Lin Yun, the answer is undoubtedly Prince Nangong. He has spent the longest time with Yan Long and fought side by side the most, so the bond is naturally the deepest.
When he thought about Yan Long's imminent sacrifice, he felt unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart.
Compared with Prince Nangong's sadness, Yanlong himself was much more free and easy. He had obviously already prepared for death.
"Even if you die, I will drag you to hell with me!" Yanlong roared and rushed towards Ouyang Xiu. The hot blue flames enveloped his whole body, forming a blue fireball with a diameter of tens of meters, like a blue ball.
The miniature sun blasted towards Ouyang Xiu unstoppably.
Ouyang Xiu raised his right hand and pointed his palm at the blue fireball: "Don't be naive, do you really think that if you do this, you will die with me?"
"I can absorb all elemental power. No matter how powerful your fire attack is, it can't hurt a hair on my head!"
As soon as Ouyang Xiu finished speaking, the blue fireball hit his palm.
The huge fireball, which was tens of meters in diameter, was absorbed by Ouyang Xiu's palm in an instant, as if it was sucked into a black hole.
