Chapter 1760 Proving Oneself (4)

The dark element represented destruction and death, while the light element represented creation and life. If there was anything that could pose a threat to the dark element, it must be the light element and the Vermilion Bird's power.

Unlike the Phoenix and the Golden Crow, the Vermilion Bird was worshipped as a mythical creature representing benevolence and life in ancient times. Some places even regarded it as a god of life because whenever the Vermilion Bird appeared, it would give birth to new life.

The white mist released by Yun Lintian clearly possessed the Vermilion Bird's power. Yao Huang didn't expect Yun Lintian to have the Vermilion Bird's bloodline as well.

However, he didn't find it strange when he thought of Yun Lintian's identity.

Yao Huang withdrew his arm and threw a punch towards Yun Lintian in the distance. His power immediately transformed the space in front of him into a massive, terrifying void.

Yao Huang's attack immediately revealed his position to Yun Lintian. Instantly, Yun Lintian grabbed the red and gold swords with both hands and swung them towards Yao Huang.

Scree—

A cry of the Vermilion Bird resonated throughout the space as an image of the Vermilion Bird flew out of the swords held in Yun Lintian's hands.

Rumble—

The next moment, an explosion big enough to obliterate the entire region engulfed everyone's senses.

Jin Long and Xian An quickly stepped forward and conjured a divine barrier to protect everyone. Meanwhile, Yao Jie didn't hesitate to activate a protective barrier around the area.

At the center of the devastating explosion, Yun Lintian and Yao Huang stared at each other expressionlessly. This clash ended in a draw.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, Yun Lintian appeared in front of Yao Huan like a ghost and swung the red sword, enveloped with the Vermilion Bird flames, towards him.

Yao Huang raised his hand, and a black barrier appeared in front of him.

BANG!

The barrier was shattered directly by Yun Lintian's attack, and the red sword in his hand continued to slam into Yao Huang's hand. As a result, Yao Huang's arm made direct contact with the burning blade.

Yao Huang's arm shook, and he was forced to bend backward to absorb the force pressing down on him. However, he didn't seem to feel anything. Not even the slightest change could be seen on his face.

At that moment, a pair of cold flames ignited in Yao Huang's eyes, and his gaze became filled with murderous intent.

Instantly, a stir occurred in the surrounding darkness, and space began to twist.

Yun Lintian immediately felt as if he were sinking into a muddy swamp, rendering him unable to move properly.

At the same time, multiple streaks of cold flame appeared around Yun Lintian before converging towards him like ravenous pythons.

Yun Lintian's expression turned solemn. He didn't dare to be careless and immediately utilized the Spatial Wheel's power.

The chaotic space around Yun Lintian suddenly stabilized, enabling him to summon the power of the Vermilion Bird flames for self-protection.

Yao Huang seemed to have anticipated this for a long time. He suddenly opened his mouth and uttered. "Devour."

In that instant, all of the Vermilion Bird flames were forcefully absorbed by a mysterious suction force that suddenly manifested around Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian's expression changed dramatically. No matter how he unleashed the flames, they all disappeared into the darkness. It was as if a colossal creature was opening its mouth and consuming everything.

The situation was extremely urgent. Yun Lintian had no choice but to steel himself and embrace the cold flames.

Boom!

Yun Lintian was instantly engulfed in the icy flames. His entire body turned freezing as if he were being thrown into a cold abyss.

Yun Lintian endured the cold and attempted to communicate with his Divine Core. In that instant, the Sun symbol on his Divine Core lit up, followed by a surge of massive Vermilion Bird flames.

The flames were so large that they became a pillar shooting towards the dark sky. The suction power from Yao Huang was unable to consume them quickly enough.

The cold flames around Yun Lintian immediately dispersed.

Yun Lintian regained his freedom, and his entire body was covered in white fur. Dazzling lightning sparks erupted from his body as he transformed into a lightning bolt, hurtling towards Yao Huang.

A cold glint flashed across Yao Huang's eyes. He raised his hand and struck. His palm turned a bronze shade as he thrust it straight at Yun Lintian's chest.

Yun Lintian didn't pause or even try to evade. The Heaven Piercing Sword suddenly appeared in his hand, followed by a burst of white radiance.

Everyone around the arena subconsciously closed their eyes as the white radiance suddenly emerged in the air, dispelling the surrounding darkness instantly.

"You have finally used it." Yao Huang stared attentively at the bright light in front of him. He had been waiting for Yun Lintian to use the light element all this time.

In that instant, a long black sword appeared in Yao Huang's bronze hand.

Usually, it was beneath him to use a weapon to fight someone of lower rank, but Yun Lintian was an exception. He could not be treated as an ordinary junior.

The intense, dark aura immediately gathered around the dark sword in Yao Huang's hand as he thrust it towards Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian's momentum was strong. He swiftly swung the Heaven Piercing Sword at the dark sword approaching him.

BOOM—

An exceptionally dull and heavy sonic boom swept across the world.

The white and black swords could be seen crossing each other in midair without any sign of retreating.

Yun Lintian and Yao Huang locked eyes, seemingly communicating their thoughts through their gaze.

"I told you. It's not enough—" Yao Huang stopped mid-sentence as he suddenly noticed something.

Yun Lintian in front of him suddenly disintegrated into light particles and completely disappeared.

At the same time, a beam of white light suddenly shot out from the ground beneath Yao Huang.

Yao Huang's pupils contracted into needle points. Yun Lintian had clearly exchanged swords with him a moment ago, which was undoubtedly genuine. How could he deceive him and appear in his shadow without him noticing?

However, Yao Huang had no time to think about it. He quickly activated his movement technique and vanished into the darkness behind him.

"Not enough? How about this?" Suddenly, Yun Lintian's cold voice echoed from behind, causing Yao Huang's expression to change for the first time...
