Chapter 1144: An Lin’s Dragon Delivery Service

The inky-black lightning sword exploded in Zeus’ mouth.

It was simply far too fast for Zeus to evade.

Lightning, which was imbued with the power of depravity and annihilation, exploded like an inky-black vortex of lightning, engulfing Zeus’ head before swallowing the rest of Zeus’ body.

In that instant, it was as if heaven and earth had fallen into absolute darkness.

Zeus’ wails of anguish and agony reverberated through the air.

“Hey hey… Do you have to be this insanely powerful?” Even Ao Qingyu’s skin crawled as he sensed the explosion of energy in the distance, and he turned to survey Zeus and An Lin’s battle with astonishment on his face.

“Zeus!” Zhuo Ma let loose a panicked cry.

It was hoping that Zeus would be able to kill An Lin quickly before coming over to help it out.

But now…

Panic was finally starting to set in as it sensed the devastatingly powerful lightning spell technique.

How could An Lin be this terrifying?

At the edge of the world of ice and snow, a figure was slowly approaching before hiding behind a huge rock.

“An Lin is fighting another mighty figure again. He really doesn’t know how to keep a low profile and look after himself, hmph!”

The woman harrumphed lightly before surveying the battle in the distance with a tense expression.

“His opponent is a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure, so I won’t be able to do anything. I’ll meet up with him after the battle… Speaking of which, he really has grown extraordinarily quickly. He can even flex in the face of Return to Void Final Stage mighty figures. Do all people like to flex when their power reaches a certain level?” the woman murmured to herself.

She was none other than the woman who had entered the Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm alongside An Lin, Xu Xiaolan.

Xu Xiaolan thought back to all of the mighty figures she had encountered, and there didn’t seem to be any that were averse to flexing.

“Zeus’ vital signs are growing weaker and weaker. Looks like An Lin has this in the bag.”

The inky-black lightning slowly dissipated.

A massive golden body plummeted from the sky.

Zeus’ entire body had been brutally ravaged by lightning. Its shiny golden body had lost all of its lusters, and it smelled like a huge chunk of roasted meat.

Its head injuries were the most severe. Its golden head had been reduced to an oversized piece of charcoal, and its eyes were rolled over into the back of its head. Its mouth was hanging open, and its skin and flesh had peeled off the bone, making it appear as if it had been disfigured.

Boom!

The ground tremored violently, and Zeus’ body left a massive crater in the ground.

“Zeus… lost?” Zhuo Ma was in complete disbelief. The Western Dragon Forest Lightning God had now been crushed by none other than lightning…

An Lin transformed into a cloud of white mist before materializing to stand on Zeus’ massive head, upon which he swallowed a few high-rank spirit pills.

He chewed on the spirit pills as he looked down upon Zeus. “How do you feel?”

A hint of clarity returned to Zeus’ eyes as it opened its mouth with unbridled rage. “Howl! I’m going do gill you!”

An Lin looked down with a sympathetic expression at Zeus. “Are you not even able to talk properly now?”

Zeus’ body trembled with rage, and his eyes turned crimson with humiliation and anger. “You’re not a Dragon Tribe cultivator, so you won’t receive the power of dragons by killing me anyway. Furthermore, you will become the sworn enemy of the entire Western Dragon Forest… But if you release me, I can give you unimaginable benefits…”

An Lin rubbed his chin in thought.

“That’s true. I don’t really get anything out of killing you…”

Zeus was ecstatic to hear this.

At the same time, a red light lit up the night sky. The Blood Soul Cross fell from the sky before crashing into Zeus’ back, unleashing peerless restrictive power. At the same time, a series of chains burst forth to tie up the massive dragon.

“Howl… What are you doing?”

Zeus struggled relentlessly as it roared with grief and indignation, “You can kill me, but you can’t shame me! If you dare to do something like that to me, I would rather die!”

An Lin’s expression darkened. “I feel like I’ve been insulted.

“Don’t think about dirty things! I’m not killing you now. I only want to tie you up so that I can let Xiaolan kill you after I find her. In that case, your power of dragons won’t go to waste! Thanks for reminding me, brother!”

Zeus’ mouth gaped open with a dumbstruck expression.

So it turned out that he hadn’t managed to convince An Lin, but he was only giving An Lin an idea so that someone else could kill him?

“Pfff…”

Zeus’ body trembled as he threw up another mouthful of blood.

The golden dragon gritted his teeth. “That won’t work! I advise you to calm down. This place is fraught with peril, and there are countless Western Dragon Forest powerful beings in here. If you drag me along to look for this Xiaolan, you won’t even get a chance to meet her before you get surrounded and killed! Hence, I advise you to let me go and…”

“An Lin!” a pleasant voice suddenly called out from the distance.

An Lin looked up to discover an exquisite beauty flying toward him.

“Xiaolan!” He waved with excitement.

Zeus: “…”

The Western Dragon Forest Lightning God experienced firsthand just how cruel fate could be sometimes.

“The heavens are trying to bring about my downfall… Cough cough…” Zeus coughed up blood with rage and exasperation surging in his heart.

He stared intently at the woman approaching them as he racked his brain for a way to turn the tables…

“Xiaolan! Who would have thought that you were in this area as well!” An Lin waved with elation on his face.

An Lin felt like a massive weight had been lifted off his shoulders now that Xu Xiaolan was safe and had been reunited with him.

“Your battle created such a massive commotion that I detected it from over five hundred kilometers away.” Xu Xiaolan flew toward him atop her sword while wearing an elated smile on her face.

However, right at this moment, a terrifying beam of crimson light shot forth from Zeus’ mouth.

“Take my curse, hahaha!”

The skin all over Zeus’ entire body was cracking open and blood was gushing forth, but he was roaring with excitement.

This was the curse he had unleashed after mustering up all of his remaining strength. Even a Return to Void Stage mighty figure might not be able to take it, let alone a mere Soul Formation Stage cultivator like her.

He was the only one that could lift the curse. If Xu Xiaolan was afflicted by the curse, he could use this against An Lin to make him release him!

This was an ideal opportunity to turn the tables.

Zeus stared straight ahead with a scorching light in his eyes.

He was then greeted by the sight of Holy Flames erupting into the sky alongside the faint cries of a holy beast.

Pure, holy light lit up the entire night sky and almost blinded Zeus with its incandescent brilliance.

This was not a Soul Formation Stage power!

Xu Xiaolan sliced the crimson beam of light into oblivion right before Zeus’ astonished eyes.

“Xiaolan, are you alright!?”

“I’m ok. Phew, that was scary. An Lin, make sure to keep that dragon subdued!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll pile a Large Water Ball on his body so that he won’t be able to move a single inch!”

A smile appeared on An Lin’s face. “As a gesture of apology for my negligence, I’m giving this dragon to you. Do you like it?”

“I do… I heard what you said earlier, and I was very touched.” A faint blush appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face.

“Are you not touched now?”

“I am…”

“Then I want a hug, and a kiss too.”

Xu Xiaolan pouted at An Lin with a hint of shyness.

Zeus’ mouth gaped open at the sight of the embracing couple.

Tears finally flowed from his eyes as he realized he had lost all hope.

What kind of Soul Formation Stage cultivators were these?!
