Since the battle began, this was the first time the immortals present had seen Lord Dragon sent flying.
Not only had Fang Yuan blocked Lord Dragon's heavy strike — he had even launched a counterattack, sending Lord Dragon flying with a single blow!
This scene far exceeded the limits of everyone's imagination.
"He's actually this strong?! What kind of terrifying growth rate is this?!" Mao Liqiu's jaw dropped open as he instinctively stood up, no longer lying prone.
"The key figure Lord Giant Sun has been waiting for... indeed, he is fully worthy of Lord Giant Sun's expectations!" Bing Saichuan sighed, his expression complicated.
Without realizing it, Qin Dingling had slowed her pursuit of Fang Yuan.
You had to be kidding!
Fang Yuan had punched Lord Dragon flying — what did that even signify?
Qin Dingling was powerful, but she had a clear understanding of herself and knew the gap between her and Lord Dragon all too well. Back then, she had paid the price of severe injuries just to observe Lord Dragon's fortune, spending many days recovering before gradually healing. Now, witnessing this scene, she immediately abandoned any thought of observing Fang Yuan's fortune.
Qin Dingling found herself in an awkward position.
She had been single-mindedly trying to chase down Fang Yuan and engage him in combat, but now — heavens! How ferocious was this man!
Qin Dingling simply halted midway, not daring to engage Fang Yuan in close combat at all.
The transformation Fang Yuan had demonstrated in his Path cultivation meant close combat was no longer a weakness — it had become his greatest strength.
Qin Dingling made her decision in an instant. From now on, she would focus entirely on assisting Lord Dragon and never again engage Fang Yuan directly.
"There's another monster!"
"Never did I expect that after my death, a demonic immortal like this would appear in the future. How interesting."
"Let's go. He doesn't need our support at all."
The immortals of the Northern Plains changed direction once more, scattering in all directions.
Ziwei Fairy's brows furrowed tightly, her mood exceedingly heavy. The Northern Plains immortals were blooming on all fronts — nearly every single one of them had an attack route, pillaging and destroying as they raced forward. How could the Heavenly Court possibly block all of this?
Even though a large number of Heavenly Court Gu Immortals had awakened in the Immortal Tomb, they still needed time to distribute Immortal Gu. There simply wasn't enough time.
"We can only focus our defenses on a few key locations!" Ziwei Fairy clenched her teeth, making the painful decision to sacrifice the pawns to save the king.
The dust gradually settled. Within the deep crater, Lord Dragon slowly rose to his feet.
"You truly never cease to amaze me, Fang Yuan." Lord Dragon raised his head to look at Fang Yuan, his expression calm, his tone frigid.
His chest, where it had been struck by Fang Yuan's fist, bore only a slightly depressed arc. But as he spoke, this indentation rapidly vanished and Lord Dragon's injuries completely healed.
He was worthy of being the Ancestor of the Dragonmen — his recovery was truly extraordinary.
Fang Yuan likewise looked down at Lord Dragon. Having witnessed this scene, his expression remained perfectly calm.
Nothing had exceeded his expectations.
Lord Dragon had not suffered any serious injuries at all. That previous strike had been imposing in its momentum, but the actual result was negligible — at most, it had caught Lord Dragon off guard.
After all, Fang Yuan had not employed any Immortal Killer Moves at that moment. The fist he swung was merely enhanced by brute strength alone.
With over one million Strength Path Dao Marks amplifying him, the Bandit Monkey form Fang Yuan had assumed possessed strength that shook heaven and earth. Lord Dragon was absolutely no match in raw power. But Lord Dragon himself possessed all manner of Immortal Killer Moves for defense, his entire being as hard as a solid block of steel. Being punched and sent flying, landing on the ground — the steel itself was unharmed.
Beneath the Ten Thousand Year Battle Flying Ship, the River of Time's waters roared and surged. This Time Path Immortal Gu House suddenly activated, hurtling forward like an enormous flying sword that sliced through the sky, leaving a brilliant silver arc in its wake as it continued to spear toward the Immortal Tomb.
Lord Dragon let out a cold snort, a fierce gleam flashing wildly through his eyes, undisguised killing intent surging outward like a tidal wave.
He had been forced onto the defensive. With Fang Yuan pressing the attack, he was being led by the nose, and this feeling was truly agonizing.
With the Primordial Qi Wall shattered, Fang Yuan had completely seized the initiative, his target still locked on the Immortal Tomb.
Having just been punched flying by Fang Yuan and lost considerable face, Lord Dragon would not make the same futile attempt twice. The facts were plain — choosing close combat against Fang Yuan and attempting a decapitation strategy was nothing short of a joke.
Immortal Killer Move — Qi Breath Mountain!
BOOM!
A magnificent stream of qi rapidly condensed into a half-transparent mountain.
The mountain shrouded several hundred li in area and crashed downward with crushing force.
Fang Yuan stood right at the mountain's base. He glanced up briefly as the mountain bore down on him, as though heaven and earth itself were tilting over, leaving no possibility of evasion.
But Fang Yuan had no intention of dodging.
He suddenly canceled his Bandit Monkey transformation, shifting instead into a majestic Qi Steel Flying Pig!
The Qi Steel Flying Pig lived in the sky, belonging to the Qi Path, capable of aerial flight. It moved as nimbly as a flying fish, possessing an agility entirely mismatched to its massive frame, weaving through the Heavenly Qi Wall with ease. A single dive would plunge it into the Heavenly Qi Wall, where it could swim through freely like a fish in the ocean.
Fang Yuan set his four hooves upon the Ten Thousand Year Battle Flying Ship, not even looking up, and let out a low roar.
Immortal Killer Move — Violent Qi Roar!
This was likewise a Qi Path Killer Move, drawn from the stores of the Langya Sect.
Back then, when the Langya Earth Spirit had piloted the Tian Po Suo Luo to battle the Qi Ya Pig, it had used this very move, roaring the ancient Desolate Beast to death on the spot.
Now, with over one million Qi Path Dao Marks amplifying it throughout his body, its power surged by more than fifteen hundred times!
BOOM!!
The Qi Breath Mountain was blasted apart by Fang Yuan's single roar. Boundless waves of qi surged outward in an instant, forming hurricanes that swept violently across the battlefield.
With his Killer Move broken, Lord Dragon suffered the backlash.
