Xuan Yue nodded solemnly. She also knew that only the unimaginable power of dragons and phoenixes could destroy the evil dragon Halbaink. She took a deep breath, calmed down the anxiety in her heart, and said calmly: "We
Summon the dragon and the phoenix, and use the real dragon and phoenix to kill him." Just as the two were about to use their strongest attack, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly drifted away, and the sun appeared over the Death Mountains, but the color of the sun had completely changed.
It turned into a blood red color, and the breeze blew, and the drizzle like cow hair floated down against the blood sun. The color of the rain was clearly blood red. Ah Dai lost his voice and said: "No, the blood sun is in the sky, it will definitely come out."
Monster, blood is raining on the world, disaster is about to happen, is the entrance to the devil world about to be opened?"
The anger of the evil dragon Halbaink seemed to have calmed down at this time. He stared blankly at the bloody sun in the sky, and the light of joy kept shining in his purple eyes. Suddenly, he burst out laughing.
The shaking mountains trembled and roared to the sky. Halbaink shouted excitedly: "Humans, the time of your destruction is coming. The entrance to the devil world is about to open. As long as Lord Hades comes to the world, this place will be destroyed."
The world has become ours, and we finally no longer have to stay in this inhospitable place." His voice spread far away. Everyone in the human coalition who retreated to the rear could clearly hear their words.
Their eyes dimmed, and gradually, anger appeared in the depths of their eyes. Xi Wen roared: "For the survival of mankind, we can't stand still. Everyone rushes to me. Even if we sacrifice our lives, we can't."
Let the entrance to the Demon Realm be opened." Under his leadership, the morale of the human coalition was completely mobilized. At this moment, everyone's blood was boiling. No matter which race they came from, they all clearly understood at this time that once the Demon Realm invaded, the human
With only the end of extinction, for their relatives and their homeland, they unleashed their full potential, and under the leadership of the leaders of various ethnic groups, rushed towards the main peak of the Death Mountain like a tide.
Halbaink sneered: "You are overestimating your capabilities. Do you think you can rush through with your weak abilities? If you want to prevent the entrance to the devil world from opening, you have to step on my body. However,
I, the evil dragon king Halbaink, am invincible."
"I'm afraid not. You are just a worm under the feet of Hades. What's there to be proud of?" It was Ah-Dai who spoke. Seriously injured, he stared at Halbaink without fear and sang loudly.
: "Use the blood of the dragon as a guide to open the gate of time and space." In the flash of blue light, an extremely clear dragon roar suddenly sounded, and the sound surged in the air and lingered for a long time. A huge figure gradually appeared in
In front of Ah-Dai, the figure has not yet become clear, and a huge momentum has arisen spontaneously, and this unparalleled momentum that fills the world is aimed at the evil dragon Halbaink. Halbaink's huge body trembled slightly,
He clearly felt the threat from this vague figure, his six wings spread wide, and his arrogant eyes suddenly became much more cautious.
The huge figure gradually became clearer. Its size was not even smaller than that of Halbaink, and even exceeded it. Its whole body was covered in thick, dense silver scales, and there was a flash of light on the scales.
A layer of faint gray light, from the top of the head to the back, seven spiral golden horns five meters long shimmering, full of sacred aura. Behind it, like Harbaink, there are six as wide as nearly a hundred
Mi's wings were so powerful that they completely suppressed Halbaink. Especially his golden eyes, which were constantly shining with anger, and his eyes full of hatred made him fearless.
The evil dragon couldn't help but tremble. He never imagined that there would be such a powerful creature on the human side. What suddenly appeared was the first golden-eyed holy evil dragon king in history - Shengxie. It turned out that on the bloody day
Appeared, when Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue were about to attack with the dragon and phoenix singing together, Shengxie's voice suddenly sounded in Ah-Dai's heart. He told Ah-Dai that he had completely integrated with all the dragon souls, and asked Ah-Dai to release him to deal with the evil dragon.
Erbaink. Dui clearly felt the strong sadness in Sheng Xie's heart due to the death of his parents and clan members. He also remembered the words of Bone Dragon King Xiliu asking him to take revenge before he died, so he released Sheng Xie. He also
Unexpectedly, in this short period of time, Shengxie has become so powerful, which is completely stronger than himself! The power of Shengxie's appearance is indeed enough to fight against Halbaink. I am very happy.
Then, Dui said in a deep voice: "Xiao Xie, Halbaink will be left to you. Be careful, let's stop the Dark Holy Cult from opening the entrance to the demon world."
Sheng Xie looked at Halbaink with resentment and said coldly: "Brother, you can go ahead with peace of mind. Today, only one of us, Halbaink, can continue to live in this world."
After hearing Sheng Xie's words, Ah-Dai felt a pain in his heart. From the day Sheng Xie was born, in his heart, Sheng Xie had always been a carefree and happy little dragon. However, at this time, he had already fallen into a trap because of the death of his parents.
In the midst of strong anger, Ah-Dai did not want to see such a holy evil! But at this time, Ah-Dai had no time to comfort Shengxie anymore, and sighed softly: "Xiao Xie, take care of yourself." After saying that, he pulled up.
Xuanyue, together with the three sword masters who had recovered some of their skills, chased the human coalition towards the main peak of the Death Mountain. With the huge threat of the Holy Evil in front of him, Halbaink did not dare to distract himself to stop it.
He knew that if they did not kill the powerful silver dragon in front of him, they would not be able to assist the Dark Holy Cult against the human coalition.
The priests of the Holy See consumed a lot of mana when using forbidden spells before. The Pope discovered the changes in the sky just after he woke up. Now he can only reluctantly lead the priests to apply the auxiliary magic of God's blessing to the human coalition. Holy
The appearance of Xie gave him renewed hope. He knew that although the Blood Sun and Blood Rain had already appeared, it would still take a certain amount of time to open the entrance to the Demon Realm. As long as the Dark Holy Cult's magic circle could be destroyed within this period of time,
Can prevent the invasion of the demon world. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel shaken, and even his mana seemed to have recovered a little. He led the priests to follow the human coalition and quickly climbed towards the top of the main peak of the Death Mountain. Dumb and Xuan Yue were very excited.
He almost caught up to the Pope. Since he had just seen the Pope unconscious, Ah-Dai asked with some concern: "Grandpa, how is your physical condition? Can you continue to persevere?"
The Pope resolutely said: "Don't worry, even if I die in this mountain of death, I can't let the evil forces succeed. You don't need to worry about me. Go to the front first. The coalition forces need someone to command them. Come on, Dumb, I'll give this to you."
"As he said this, he handed Ah-Dai a small porcelain vase. The porcelain vase was white with a golden magic six-pointed star pattern on it. Ah-Dai was stunned and asked, "Grandpa, what is this?" The Pope sighed softly and said, "What's inside?
It is a pill passed down from the early days of the Holy See. It is said that people who practice martial arts can recover their skills in the shortest time and even improve them. Eat it quickly, I prepared it specially for you."
Ah-Dai felt warm in his heart, held the porcelain bottle tightly, and said, "Grandpa, won't this work for you?"
The Pope shook his head and said: "It has no effect on magicians and priests. Eat it quickly, you are the mainstay of the entire coalition, and we will rely on your leadership to achieve the final victory."
Ah-Dai knew that now was not the time to be polite, so he opened the bottle cap, and a tangy fragrance came out, which immediately refreshed his mind. He glanced at Xuan Yue beside him, and threw the elixir into his mouth. When the elixir entered his mouth, he suddenly felt
It turned into a stream of sweet body fluid and flowed down his throat, bringing warm air into his belly. After taking the elixir, Ah-Dai realized that he had been deceived by the Pope. This elixir was not only useful for martial arts practitioners.
, under its effect, his mental strength was also improved as never before. When the heat spread all over his body, he was surprised to find that his skill had been fully restored, even more so. The surging fighting spirit made him
His whole body was full of strength.
Ah-Dai's eyes were red, and he choked with sobs and said, "Grandpa, why are you doing this?"
The Pope smiled slightly and said: "Silly boy, this should be yours to eat! Don't forget that you are the savior of the continent. Don't say any more, the coalition needs you, go quickly. Grandpa's magic power recovery speed
Much faster than ordinary magicians, maybe they will have fully recovered by the time they reach the top of the mountain? Remember, you must not show mercy when facing the enemy. The most important thing for us now is time, so go quickly.
Whether you can stop the Dark Holy Cult depends on you."
Duan nodded solemnly, bowed deeply to the Pope, picked up Xuan Yue, and flew quickly towards the top of the main peak of the Death Mountain. Looking at their backs, the Pope showed a knowing smile and murmured
He said: "Children, you have to work hard! The future of mankind depends on you."
The coalition forces embarked on the way up the main peak, but the evil dragon Halbaink and Shengxie were still facing each other on the same spot. Neither of them spoke, and they were still accumulating their own energy, preparing to give the other side a thunderous blow.
In terms of strength, the two dragons are almost the same. However, Halbaink suffered a serious injury due to the joint efforts of Ah-Dai and the priests of the Holy See. It would not be possible to recover for a while. And Shengxie had just
The dragon soul was completely absorbed, which made him stronger to such an extent. He was unable to fully master his own skills, so they were on the same starting line again.
Halbaink's six wings were spread out, and dark blue light continued to shine and converge on the giant horn above his head, while the seven sharp horns behind Shengxie were also condensing energy. His current cultivation level has exceeded
It has surpassed the category of Dragon King, and even surpassed the Dragon God summoned by Dui. Sheng Xie kept chanting the dragon spell of the Dragon King lineage, and the huge sacred power continued to condense.
Halbaink was the first to be unable to bear the loneliness in the air, his big purple eyes flashed with cold light, he shouted loudly, and shot out a dark blue beam of light from his horn, heading straight for Sheng Xie's head. Here is Sheng Xie's spell.
Time has also been completed. With his current cultivation level, it is extremely easy to use the dragon spell. Seven golden rays of light condensed together in the air to meet Halbaink's attack.
The cultivation of the evil dragon Halbaink and Sheng Xie is absolutely outstanding even in the world of gods and demons. Their full strength fight immediately caused an uproar. In the violent collision, the two huge dragon bodies were thrown away.
Flying, huge shock waves were emitted in all directions. Halbaink was afraid that the shock wave would affect the Dark Holy Cult on the main peak and open the entrance to the demon world, while Sheng Xie was afraid that the shock wave would hurt Dui and the human coalition forces, so when they attacked each other, they could
This prevented the shock wave from extending to the main peak of the Death Mountain. Other mountain peaks were not so lucky. Under the shock wave generated by the powerful collision of the two dragons, a series of explosions occurred on dozens of surrounding peaks. For a time, countless mountains rose up in the center of the Death Mountain.
The smoke and clouds seemed to make the earth tremble.
Halbaink and Shengxie each stabilized their bodies. No one of them took advantage of the attack just now, and no one was injured. Since the bombardment of energy cannot determine the outcome, they can only rely on the most primitive physical attacks to fight.
, almost without any reason, the two angry dragons rushed towards each other at the same time, using their own bodies to attack each other.
With the Holy Evil resisting the evil dragon Halbaink in the final stage of the Twelve Tribulations of the Dead in the Death Mountain, there was no longer any power to stop the human coalition. Under the leadership of Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue, the human army quickly moved towards the main peak of the Death Mountain.
Moving forward, soldiers from all ethnic groups are united and have only one goal, which is to prevent the Dark Holy Cult from opening the entrance to the demon world.
As Dumb flew upwards rapidly, he felt the effect of the elixir that the Pope gave him. The warm air flow continued to circulate around his meridians, moisturizing every part of his body. With the support of this elixir,
His whole body felt indescribably comfortable, and his vitality was always in the best condition. The main peak of the Death Mountain was very high. Even if they were flying, it took Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue ten minutes to reach the mountainside. Xuanyuan led
The judges of the Holy See and the masters of all forces followed closely behind. At this moment, a large number of enemies appeared behind the rocks on the mountainside. The leaders were surprisingly the few remaining among the twelve heavenly kings of the Dark Sacred Religion.
Headed by the Moon King, the Dragon King, the Winged King, and the Dwarf King, Dumb saw Catwoman Mimi and Silver Girl in front of the enemy team at a glance. His whole body was shaken, and his murderous intention suddenly rose. Catwoman was the one who killed Bing.
The direct murderer, and Silver Girl killed the people of the Elf tribe. Behind these kings, gathered all the strength of the Dark Holy Cult, dragonmen, dark demons, orcs, winged men, dwarves and other dark alien races formed a solid
In the camp, a cold light flashed in Ah-Dai's eyes, and he shouted angrily: "Get out of here."
The Moon King twisted his delicate body and walked to the front of his team, smiled charmingly, and said: "Little brother, why are you so angry! Do you want my sister to calm down your anger?"
Xuan Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and said angrily: "Shameless. If you don't get out of here, we won't be polite."
The Moon King was not angry because of Xuan Yue's scolding. He still smiled and said: "Little sister, don't be so angry. Although the main peak of the Death Mountain is very large, it is completely occupied by more than 100,000 of us.
I'm afraid it's not that easy to rush up with the favorable terrain, so why don't we sit down and have a chat."
Xuan Yuan and others had already come up at this time. Seeing these enemies who had ambushed him, Xuan Yuan's anger reached the extreme. "Stop talking nonsense to them. They want to delay time. Let's kill them." After that, he
Taking the lead, she rushed toward the Moon King. The Divine Fighting Qi brought up a wave-like energy, and the power increased greatly. Faced with Xuan Yuan's powerful attack, the Moon King's face couldn't help but change slightly. She also knew in her heart that although there were not many people on her side,
There are few, but it is difficult to resist these strong human beings. The task given to her by the leader of the Dark Holy Cult is to delay time. As soon as she gritted her teeth, a pale white light burst out of her body, and a crescent-like weapon appeared in front of her.
In his hand, he lightly lifted several crescent moons in the air towards Xuan Yuan's attack.
After being reminded by Xuan Yuan, Ah-Dai no longer hesitated, his body flashed, and he rushed towards Catwoman Mimi and Silver Girl. Now Ah-Dai is different from the past. The surging fighting spirit suppressed Catwoman and Silver Girl, who couldn't even think of resisting.
They got up and used their agile bodies to retreat back. The Dragon King was on the side of the two women. He didn't know how powerful Ah-Dai was. Seeing the golden fighting spirit in front of him, he snorted with disdain and suddenly rushed towards Ah-Dai from the side.
At this time, Ah-Dai's heart was full of hatred. If anyone dared to stop him from taking revenge, he would naturally not show mercy. His whole body was filled with golden light, and he threw a punch at the Dragon King without any fancy. Ah-Dai's skill at this time had reached its peak.
, the solid-state fighting spirit of the seventh transformation is so powerful that even the Tiangang Sword Master would not dare to take it lightly when he was alive, let alone the Dragon King. Facing Dui's attack, the Dragon King realized the crisis in front of him.
, that seemingly simple punch exuded extremely powerful domineering energy, which completely locked the space in all directions of him, leaving him with no choice but to fight hard. In order to save his life, the Dragon King had no choice but to fight with all his strength, using his long
The hands with sharp claws greeted Dumb's fist.
"Ka, ka, ka ka ka, boom--" When the Dragon King's palms connected with Ah-Dai's fists, he suddenly felt that his body seemed to be floating, and his whole body was extremely light, slowly blowing in the breeze.
Swinging, the sound of bones breaking all over his body could be heard clearly. His proud defense seemed to have no effect. Everything he had done in the past kept flashing in his mind. He couldn't help but ask himself, what should I do?
Are those things right? As his body was flying in mid-air, the vitality was withdrawn from his body bit by bit. There was no pain, only numbness. When he crashed into his own crowd, the man who ruled the dragon clan
The strong life has completely disappeared.
Dumb punched the Flying Dragon King without even looking at it. He clearly knew how powerful his punch was. His target was Catwoman and Silver Girl. The golden strands of fighting energy flowed out, following the lightning-moving body.
The figure moved towards the two women. Catwoman and Silver Girl felt as if they were in a force field at the same time. No matter how they dodge, they could not avoid the large golden filaments in the air. With a flash of light, their bodies
Shengsheng had been entangled tightly with the solid fighting spirit threads. Ah-Dai snorted coldly, moved his body forward, and grabbed the two women's throats with both hands. Under the influence of the huge energy of Shengsheng's true energy, the two women did not even have a chance to resist.
No. Catwoman's eyes showed a look of despair, and she reluctantly said: "I, I know I was wrong, please spare my life, I am willing to stand on your side."
There was strong hatred in Dumb's eyes, and the scene of Catwoman's claw penetrating the ice body reappeared in front of his eyes. His voice was as cold as coming from hell, "Spare you? If I hadn't spared you in the first place,
Ice will not die. Ice! Your spirit in heaven is watching, Ah-Dai has avenged you." Catwoman's breathing suddenly became rapid, her face became pale, and the bones on her neck were crushed by Ah-Dai's iron fist.
Her lower body was slowly broken, with a look of panic flashing in her eyes. Her green eyes gradually turned gray, and her neck was broken. With a flick of his hand, Dumb knocked down a group of people who wanted to attack him with Catwoman's body.
The enemy turned his attention to Yinnu. Yinnu was completely in terror at this time. She was the only one who would play tricks on others to death. She never thought that her end would come so soon. Her lustful fighting spirit
There was nothing he could do at this point, and his whole body was trembling constantly.
Dui was about to deal with the silver girl when he suddenly felt a sharp fighting spirit coming from his side. His mind moved and he leaned forward to avoid the enemy's sneak attack. He looked towards the sneak attack and saw that it was the one who sneak attacked him.
The dwarf king in black armor. Among the twelve kings of the Dark Holy Cult, the dwarf king ranks fourth in cultivation, not much different from the dragon king. The silver girl can be said to be his old sweetheart for many years.
, he was about to be killed, how could he not take action. Seeing that Dumb had dodged his attack, he shouted angrily: "Let the pervert king go quickly, or I will kill you."
Dui smiled contemptuously and snorted: "Another person whose soul has been corrupted by the darkness. The dwarves are originally a kind and honest nation, but I didn't expect that under your leadership, they became a member of the darkness. You don't think so.
Kill me. I'll kill her first." With force on her wrist, Silver Girl got the same fate as Catwoman, with her neck broken and her whole body hanging limply on Dumb's hand.
The dwarf king gave a sad cry, and swung the battle ax in his hand at Ah-Dai with all his strength. Ah-Dai flashed like a ghost, drifted to the side of the dwarf king, gently pressed his thick shoulder, and flew into the air.
Chong Xuanyue said: "Yueyue, let's go up the mountain first, and we can leave this place to everyone." Xuan Yue agreed, flew up, grabbed Ah-Dai's big hand, and the two of them headed towards the top of the main peak of the Death Mountain Mountain like meteors chasing the moon.
When Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue disappeared, the dwarf king's body slowly softened. Ah-Dai's palm did not kill him, but it dispersed the true energy in his body and severed several of his main meridians.
In his lifetime, it will be impossible to use force again. In just a few minutes, Dui relied on his unfathomable cultivation to easily defeat the four king-level masters of the Dark Holy Cult, making the progress of the human coalition easier. Xi
Wen led the Tiangang Sword Sect and with the cooperation of Xuan Yuan, they smashed into the enemy camp like a torrent. Although the dark aliens were tyrannical, facing these human warriors, they could only die. The Holy Knights also caught up,
These rigorously trained holy knights have exerted strong combat effectiveness. Although they attack from the bottom up, it is difficult for the dark aliens of the Dark Holy Cult to withstand their tide-like attacks. Without the protection of the Twelve Tribulations of the Undead,
The more than 100,000 people of the Dark Holy Cult are nothing more than a joke to the coalition forces.
The bloody sun in the sky became redder and redder, and the blood rain became denser. In his anxiety, Ah-Dai pushed his speed to the limit. The top of the mountain continued to magnify in his eyes. He kept saying to himself, fast, fast,
We must prevent them from opening the entrance to the Demon Realm. The top of the mountain is already in sight. At this moment, a large cloud of black mist suddenly covers it from above. Ah-Dai's heart froze, and his momentum of forward movement did not change, and the fighting spirit suddenly came out like a barrier,
Blocking towards the black mist. When the grudge and the black mist collided, Ah-Dai clearly felt that the black mist was like a huge soft cushion, removing all his momentum and stopping his progress suddenly.
Of course Ah-Dai knew who the enemy in front of him was. It was the undead evil witch king Nazgul who had been severely damaged by the combined efforts of everyone.
Constantly condensing energy, the Sword of Sumeru appeared in Ah-Dai's hands, and Xuan Yue also began to chant spells, constantly applying auxiliary magic to herself and Ah-Dai.
Nazgul's ethereal voice sounded, "You are very good! I didn't expect to pass the evil dragon Halba Yinke's level so quickly. It seems that the evil dragon is really old."
Ah-Dai knew that the entrance to the Demon Realm was about to open, and he must not delay here. He pointed forward with the Sumiru Sword, and used his huge momentum to cover Nazgul. He clearly felt that although Nazgur did not
He died in the joint efforts of everyone before, but his body was definitely severely damaged, at least he has not recovered yet.
Feeling the huge energy coming from the Sword of Sumeru, the black mist gathered by Nazgul suddenly shrank, and a human-shaped black mist appeared. I don't know where he conjured a large black cloak to cover his body.
He went up like a legendary wizard. A hand made of mist swiped in the air, and three fire demons suddenly appeared. They waved the fire whips in their hands and rushed towards Ah-Dai.
Duan shouted angrily: "It's the same old thing again, go to hell." The Xumi Sword brought out a golden sword light that was three feet long, and cut into the fire demon's attack like lightning. Under the influence of the huge fighting spirit, the three
The fire demon was immediately crushed to pieces. Nazgul summoned powerful undead creatures one after another without stopping, but his strongest was just a bone dragon about twenty meters long.
There was no threat to Xuan Yue at all. Time passed by minute by second. Finally, the speed at which Nazgul summoned undead creatures could no longer keep up with the speed of Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue. When Ah-Dai killed a Nazgul and summoned
After the rotten dragon emerged, he found a flaw and without any hesitation, he continued to attack Nazgul with the assistance of the Holy Light Slash sent by Xuan Yue.
Nazgul is also helpless now. Ah-Dai's judgment is correct. His current energy is less than one-third of its optimal state, and it is not enough to stop Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue from moving forward. With a popping sound, Ah-Dai
The Sumeru Sword shuttled back and forth in Nazgur's body several times, shredding the black mist in his body, and Xuan Yue's Holy Light Slash arrived in time, using her extremely pure sacred energy
The energy of Nazgul was dissolved, and in the shrill screams, most of Nazgul's body disappeared under the joint efforts of Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue. He separated a wisp of black smoke and escaped quickly. Ah-Dai and
Xuan Yue's round of offensive was exhausted, and there was no time to pursue. Just as the two of them were repenting, a white light with a scream cut through the sky, and instantly caught up with Nazgul's escaping body, and passed through it.
, a voice full of fear sounded, and Nazgul shouted unwillingly: "Dead demon, you dare to go against me..." The voice suddenly stopped, and all the black mist in the sky disappeared.
Yes, the person who attacked Nazgur was Xianxian who had turned into a god. Her cultivation level was naturally not enough to fight against such a powerful undead as Nazgur. However, Nazgur's power was weakened several times.
After that, her strength had weakened to a certain extent. In a sudden sneak attack, Xianxian succeeded. A white figure appeared. Xianxian smiled at Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue and said, "I have severely damaged his mental imprint, but he is indeed strong.
, can still preserve a little of the original energy, but this undead evil wizard king will not threaten you for a long time." After transforming into a god, Xianxian's original undead piercing became a god melting, she used this
The skill assimilated some of Nazgul's spiritual imprint, but because Nazgul was too evil, she did not dare to absorb the assimilated energy. She was afraid that after the complete assimilation, her body would be occupied by Nazgul and she would become another immortal.
The Evil Witch King, so we can only hit him hard.
Dui was overjoyed and said: "That's great. Without the obstruction of the Twelve Tribulations of the Undead, the Dark Holy Cult is nothing to fear. Thank you, Xianxian."
Xianxian smiled slightly and said: "Don't thank me, go quickly, I'm afraid the entrance to the demon world is about to be opened." After hearing her words, Ah-Dai's heart trembled, and he looked at Xuan Yue, and the two of them rushed to the top of the mountain.
