Tang Li Xue stored the [Scepter of Disaster] in her grasp back into her space pouch, then she took a deep breath as her expression turned colder and more solemn.

"All right... let's begin! This is a big gamble. Win or die would be decided here in a few moments." Tang Li Xue said as she took a deep breath and began to ignite all of the Flame of Pride in her body at once without any plan to reserve it even one bit.

The deep blue Flame of Pride from Tang Li Xue's body became increasingly hotter, and the [Phoenix Cloak] around her body started to flicker violently.

BWWWOOOOSSSHHH~!!!

The [Phoenix Cloak] managed to push away all of the gigantic metal bone dragon's Purple Ghost Flame in that instant, and Tang Li Xue immediately used that chance to condense all of her deep-blue Flame of Pride into something even more powerful.

[Paragon Flame Sword]!

The deep-blue flame sword was created from the condensation of her entire Flame of Pride and the sea of flame Qi in her Dantian.

Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not use her Vitality Energy and Mental Energy here since they were all sealed along with her divine abilities and skills. If not, this deep-blue flame sword could become more than twice as powerful as it has right now.

Tang Li Xue grasped the deep-blue flame sword tightly with both of her hands, and she could feel the powerful pulse from the deep-blue flame sword that connected to herself.

It was as if the sword itself was the part of her body...

But the gigantic metal bone dragon's Purple Ghost Flame already started to assault Tang Li Xue once again from all directions and threatened to engulf her a whole, then burned her body and soul to dust.

The deep-blue light shone from the deepest part of Tang Li Xue's eyes as she suddenly twisted her upper body and swung the deep-blue flame sword in her grasp with all of her might.

[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spin!

When Tang Li Xue brandished the blazing deep-blue flame sword in her grasp, the sea of Purple Ghost Flame around her was split into two in a blink of an eye, but Tang Li Xue did not plan to end her move until there...

"UOOOOOOHHHHH~!!! Pierce through everything, [Paragon Flame Sword]!" Tang Li Xue bellowed out loud as she suddenly jumped upward and thrust the deep-blue flame sword in her grasp toward the ceiling.

BBBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGG~!!!

The deep-blue flame sword in Tang Li Xue's grasp stabbed through the metal ceiling until the tip exited through the gigantic metal bone dragon's spine.

RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRR~!!!

The gigantic metal bone dragon could not feel any pain even though Tang Li Xue stabbed through its body, but it still could feel that Tang Li Xue started to struggle to get out from its body, so it roared out loud to arouse the Purple Ghost Flame in its body to attack Tang Li Xue more fiercely.

"It is already too late for you to make your move... Just go back into your deep slumber and sleep forever. You are no longer belong to this world." Tang Li Xue whispered to the gigantic metal bone dragon as she jumped out from the large crack on its back.

After finished her last words, Tang Li Xue raised the blazing deep-blue flame sword in her grasp once more until it reached above her head, and then she swung it down with all of her remaining strength while injected all of her remaining Qi and Flame of Pride into the blazing deep-blue flame sword.

[Paragon Sword Technique], Perpetual Slash!

The blazing deep-blue flame sword in Tang Li Xue's grasp has grown bigger until it reached taller than two meters in that instant.

The sharpest sword Qi and sword intent compressed in the [Paragon Flame Sword] also explosively increased right at this moment.

It could be said this [Perpetual Slash] was the most powerful move in [Paragon Sword Technique]. It was the sword technique that staked everything in one slash.

This [Perpetual Slash]'s sword move will keep slashing the target until it shredded the target to pieces or until the energy was completely spent.

Just like now, all of the energies from Tang Li Xue's [Paragon Flame Sword] were completely spend after Tang Li Xue used [Perpetual Slash], but her slash created a swirling deep-blue flame dancing around like a huge tempest of deep-blue flame.

CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG...

The huge tempest of deep-blue flame rained upon the gigantic metal bone dragon, brought down the sharpest sword intent, sword Qi, and extremely hot deep-blue flame with them.

All of those storms of energies started to tear the gigantic metal bone dragon at once from its giant pair of metal wings, dismantled it layer by layer like the sharpest chef's knives.

RRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!

The unresigned gigantic metal bone dragon roared angrily toward Tang Li Xue, but there was still nothing it could do to get out from the tempest of Tang Li Xue's [Perpetual Slash].

CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... CLANG... BBAAAAAAAANNGG~!!! 

After cutting the giant pair of metal wings to pieces, the huge tempest of deep-blue flame and sharpest sword intent began to tear through the gigantic metal bone dragon's sturdy metal body and blades-filled metal limbs.

RRROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRRR~!!!

The gigantic metal bone dragon roared toward the ceiling for one last time as Tang Li Xue's [Perpetual Slash] ripped it apart to pieces.

Even the thick metallic armor could not do anything to defend against the extremely high temperature that could melt everything and the sharpest sword intent that could cut through everything.

BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM~!!!

Tang Li Xue vigilantly looked at the gigantic metal bone dragon that turned into scraps of metal under the barrage slashes of the stormy tempest of deep-blue flames without missing any single moment.

This was her last attack and her last struggle to win after all. She would be completely spent all of her remaining strength and would not be able to muster any more strength to attack or struggle after this.

If the gigantic metal bone dragon somehow survived this final attack of hers, Tang Li Xue might be the one to lose in the end.

After she saw the gigantic metal bone dragon had been cut down into scraps of metal by her [Perpetual Slash], Tang Li Xue finally could not hold on anymore and fell on her knee too as the extreme exhaustion flooded every part of her body.

Tang Li Xue was breathing heavily, and she felt really dizzy because of the lack of Qi and stamina. She was sweating profusely as she already tried to recover her Qi and stamina as fast as she could.

"Huff... Huff... Huff... Thank God, it really works... If not, the situation would become really dangerous for me right now..." Tang Li Xue sighed in relief as she sat on the ground and took a deep breath to calm down.

Tang Li Xue took out a leather water pouch and drank a big gulp of water from it.

PPPFFFFFFFFTTT~!!!

Tang Li Xue spurted out the water in her mouth when she saw an intense purple light shone from under the demolished metal body of the gigantic metal bone dragon.

Tang Li Xue quickly stood up in vigilant, but she staggered around instead like a drunken person since her Qi and stamina were already completely spent, and all of her limbs felt really powerless.

But Tang Li Xue still forcefully dragged her exhausted body to check what that intense purple light really was.

"This is... the source of Purple Ghost Flame!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise after she dug out the intense purple light from under the metal rubbles of the gigantic metal bone dragon.

Just when Tang Li Xue tried to touch the source of Purple Ghost Flame to examine it more closely, the Phoenix of Pride in her Dantian suddenly flew out and greedily swallowed the source of Purple Ghost Flame right in front of Tang Li Xue's eyes.

Tang Li Xue: .....

Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to react or scold the Phoenix of Pride before it flew back into her Dantian and went back to sleep to digest the source of Purple Ghost Flame. 

Under the continuous nourishment of [Sun Dragon King's Pearl], the  Phoenix of Pride could easily recover much faster than how Tang Li Xue was recovering her Qi and stamina.

The Phoenix of Pride would certainly grow much stronger later after it completely digested the source of Purple Ghost Flame. 

However, Tang Li Xue still felt very displeased and angry with the Phoenix of Pride since it swallowed the source of Purple Ghost Flame without her permission again, just like how it consumed her seed of Phoenix's flame before without her permission too before.

"It seems I must scold that damned bird properly later! How could that damned bird consume every good thing without asking for my permission EVERY DAMN TIME?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in displeasure and scolded the Phoenix of Pride while she continued to take a rest again to recover her Qi and stamina.

Nyaaaaaannn~!!!

Tang Li Xue immediately realized Little Loki who still sat silently on her right shoulder since the very start. 

Honestly, Tang Li Xue almost forgot about Little Loki all this time when she fought so fiercely against the gigantic metal bone dragon before.

"Little Loki! Are you all right?" Tang Li Xue worriedly asked while checked Little Loki carefully.

She sighed in relief after making sure Little Loki was completely all right and uninjured.

Actually, Little Loki itself was never in danger at all. With its [Instant Teleportation] it got from consuming the [Amulet of Teleportation] from Teacher Li Wei, it could easily teleport around to avoid any danger.

"That is right! Little Loki is still the best! You are so much better than that egoistic damned bird! Let's just forget about that egoistic damned bird! Who cares about it anyway..." Tang Li Xue praised Little Loki while kept patting its tiny furry head gently.

When Tang Li Xue still took a rest and feed Little Loki with the beast cores, the archaic voice resounded in her mind again all of a sudden.

"Congratulation, Fated young one! You have passed my third trial, the Trial of Wits!"
