Chapter 2076 - 89: He, Gu Changzhi_2

But it was only for a moment.

This touch of surprise was forcefully suppressed, Qinglong stepped forward, he likewise extended his palm, unexpectedly grasping the tip of the Light Longsword that pierced the barrier.

"???"

Gu Xizhou’s pupils constricted, she looked up incredulously at Qinglong.

What kind of arrogance it must be to make such a move?

This sword, just a little more forward, could pierce into Qinglong’s chest...

But the terrifying pressure, along with Qinglong’s five fingers closing, was transmitted to Gu Xizhou’s shoulders!

Qinglong activated "Infinite" in the palm of his hand.

The Light Longsword melted like snow, not to mention advancing further, it couldn’t even maintain its shape!

"Is this all you have?"

Qinglong grasped the Light Sword, overlooking Gu Xizhou, his voice echoed like a bell, deafening!

"Mm..."

Gu Xizhou, whose sword was held, had no retreat left, her face paler than the traveller who was previously repelled, because she couldn’t even extract herself, only clash directly with Qinglong here.

The Source Tower is Qinglong’s main domain!

Here, his fire’s brilliance completely overpowered the traveller and Light’s combined fire!

At this moment——

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three violent explosions sounded, Bai Xiu suddenly drew his bow and arrows, this time he shot out three arrows in succession, each pull of the Quenched Candle Great Bow had a price, after shooting three arrows, blood flowed from Bai Xiu’s nostrils, yet his expression remained calm, his gaze fixed on the arrows’ landing points.

The first arrow was directly intercepted by the Sky Divine Domain’s "Infinite," suspended motionless!

But the second arrow swiftly followed, colliding with the previous arrow’s tail, the terrifying energy of the two arrows combined burst above the Sky Divine Domain!

This time, "Achilles’ Heel" did not target Qinglong.

But Qinglong’s "Infinite."

Everything in this world, tangible or intangible, has weaknesses.

Whether tangible or intangible.

For Quenched Candle, everything visible can be extinguished.

The third arrow, streaking through the grand and magnificent explosion storm, brushed Gu Xizhou’s hair, directly piercing into the fissure of the void barrier’s opening!

In this world, avalanches often occur because a tiny snowflake is dislodged.

The smaller the disturbance, the less attention it attracts.

And when the true avalanche arrives.

No matter how massive the mountain is, it collapses entirely within seconds!

Bai Xiu’s third arrow finally caused a change in Qinglong’s indifferent expression, he had to release his grip, giving up the suppression on Gu Xizhou, using all of "Infinite" to contain the arrow that broke through his blockade.

Ultimately, the third arrow of Quenched Candle that detonated a small part of the Sky Divine Domain was forcibly extinguished by Qinglong.

With full exertion, Gu Xizhou took a deep breath, choosing to plunge the Light Sword all the way through!

With a loud bang!

The barrier condensed by the Sky Fire was shattered by a single sword strike.

Gu Xizhou advanced with the sword.

Qinglong floated backward.

He wouldn’t let this sword truly hit him.

In the next moment——

The "Alcohol Strike," which targets the spirit, fell upon Gu Xizhou’s Heart Lake!

Boom!

Gu Xizhou’s complexion turned pale, the sweetness rose in her throat, but she forcibly swallowed this bit of blood, her Heart Lake, struck by Qinglong, was temporarily blank for a moment but quickly returned to normal, her eyes ignited with even more intense killing intent, this sword finally managed to reach within three meters of Qinglong!

But... not into flesh and bone!

After suppressing Quenched Candle’s third arrow, Qinglong withdrew "Infinite," the Light Sword ultimately collided with Infinite——

Gu Xizhou was bounced back by the recoil force, a muffled groan, she withdrew the sword and retreated.

The three-foot sharp sword exploded in mid-air, transforming into countless golden light fragments!

A rain of golden light scattered between the two.

Gu Xizhou’s Heart Lake was hammered once, her expression pale, holding her chest, but her eyes showed no pain.

Because at this moment, along with the rain of golden light, flying through the air, was also a corner of Qinglong’s robe.

This corner of the robe was torn and cut off by the Light Sword during Qinglong’s retreat!

Though still holding the upper hand, Qinglong’s expression was not much better than Gu Xizhou’s... because he not only retreated but also got injured, the Light Sword’s holy radiance tore his robe and grazed his skin.

It’s actually an almost negligible injury.

But for such a proud and conceited Divine Throne, this strike was unacceptable.

Even with "information disclosure," he was still wounded by the combined attacks of Quenched Candle and Light Fire!

Most importantly...

After this strike, Qinglong’s originally serene Heart Lake suddenly displayed a faint ominous premonition!

This feeling, even during past confrontations with Bai Shu and Lin Lei, never occurred.

Qinglong furrowed his brow and shook his sleeves coldly.

He looked at the torn corner of his garment, feeling the spiritual omen resonating from Heart Lake.

Could it be...

That the four people in front of him could indeed bring him severe harm?

...

...

The recent joint strike by the trio didn’t have much effect.

But at least it prevented the previously "crushed" battle from looking so bleak.

The traveller, who was the first to take action and also the first to have his move countered, wiped the blood from the corner of his lips... Now he understood why he had been called to this battlefield.

Each of Qinglong’s moves appeared effortless, yet in reality, they were extraordinarily powerful!

This battle wasn’t something that so-called origin strong people could partake in.

After merging the fire seed, even though far from his peak state, he was at least a righteous Divine Throne.

He might not win, but he could endure.

In this battle, his role was to strike first and then withstand attacks with all his might.

"Hey..."

The traveller’s voice was hoarse, transmitting his spirit: "I have no objection to taking the hits, but after all your planning, is this all you’ve got?"

After a brutal beating, Meng Xizhou had merely torn off a corner of Qinglong’s robe!

The odds... were truly slim.

"Of course not..."

Meng Xizhou was also wiping blood from the corner of his mouth.

After observing the Source Tower through the Forbidden Book Tower for so long, this Divine War was naturally not just about stacking simple tricks.

"Haven’t you noticed, there’s one person who hasn’t taken action?"

Meng Xizhou’s words made the traveller pause slightly.

He frowned, looking at the small figure at the end of the Source Tower.

Gu Xiaoman was the first to step into the Sky Peak Divine Domain, initiating this Divine War.

Yet now, she was hiding at the very back, her presence almost nonexistent.

In the recent confrontation... Gu Xiaoman clearly had no intention of participating!

In fact, the traveller didn’t expect this successor of the Lord of Wine to do anything; he didn’t believe this young girl, who hadn’t even comprehended the origin, could play a role in the Divine War.

"Infinite’s defense is strong, but if we create a place ’Infinite’ cannot reach, and make it impossible for Qinglong to defend..."

"Then killing Qinglong becomes a possible thing."

Meng Xizhou softly transmitted, "We’ve just proven he can bleed. Since he can bleed... then he will definitely die."

This statement made a lot of sense.

But after taking a hit, the traveller was highly skeptical of the plan to kill Qinglong.

"Create a place ’Infinite’ cannot reach? How to create it? Who to rely on?"

The traveller frowned, confused: "Could it be... her?"

"Exactly."

"Rely on her."

Meng Xizhou took a deep breath.

She stood firm, using Divine Power to fix the rain of light scattered in the sky, making the Sky Peak Divine Domain dazzling and unreal at this moment.

In the recent confrontation... harming Qinglong wasn’t the primary goal. The true purpose was to give Gu Xiaoman enough time to activate her spirit, to resonate with the spirit of Gu Changzhi within the envelope.

[Dissolving Dream]’s ability is to invert reality and the Dream.

The pinnacle of the Source Tower nearly reaches the sky, and here is where Qinglong ascended to godhood, the place closest to the dome on earth.

And now.

Within this Sky Peak Divine Domain, a golden soil was reestablished.

In this soil stood the vague, faint shadow of a giant tree.

Gu Xiaoman sat under the tree, having seen this scene in Gu Shen’s Dream... She knew that Brother Gu Shen’s "Pure Land" was Mr. Gu Changzhi’s heritage.

At this moment.

She used all the spiritual power from the envelope to create [Dissolving Dream], reshaping this Four Seasons Wilderness.

Qinglong retreated to the Throne, looking at this scene in a daze.

He felt that within his Divine Domain, a part was missing.

That patch of golden soil, rooted in the clouds, opened in the Dream... was not under his control.

And under the scattering of the golden rain of light.

A familiar figure gradually appeared.

"Gu..."

Qinglong looked at the man beneath the golden rain of light in disbelief.

He instinctively took a step back.

"Gu Changzhi?!"
