Chapter 2074
From the very beginning, Sanguang had a hidden plan. The so-called "accomplices" were just pawns he used to manipulate the two of them!
In the face of life and death, the two had no time to think and their personal defensive treasures were instantly activated—the jade talisman on Bai Rong's chest exploded, turning into a light golden shield with ancient runes flowing on it.
The sword mark between You Ruo's brows lit up, and a black gauze robe unfolded out of thin air, with spatial Dao patterns interwoven between the silk threads.
It's easy to activate a substitute protective treasure, but it takes a moment to retrieve fragments of one's own bones from a storage ring to retaliate, and San Guang will never give them that chance.
"Bang bang bang-"
Eight crisp sounds followed in succession, like bubbles hitting a sharp blade.
Daojun's ribs, carrying a deathly pressure, slammed into the protective shield and the gauze robe. The golden shield was instantly covered with cracks, and the black gauze robe was pierced with eight holes. The defensive measures were as fragile as paper.
Bai Rong and You Ruo were furious with each other. In their haste, they swung out their divine weapons—Bai Rong's spear blazed with intense fire, while You Ruo's short sword was wrapped in a cold light. However, it was knocked out of her hand by a rib and flew through the air, spinning as it fell toward the edge of the Crimson Cloud Domain.
"San Guang! I will haunt you even as a ghost!" Bai Rong roared, his voice filled with boundless resentment.
"You will surely suffer the wrath of Heaven and die a terrible death!" Youruo's voice was as shrill as a cry of blood.
But even the most venomous curses could not stop a fatal attack.
The eight Dao Lord ribs intertwined in the air to form a gray-black bone net, which suddenly contracted and strangled.
"Pfft-"
The sound of flesh being torn apart was extremely piercing. Bai Rong and You Ruo's bodies were instantly pulverized into ashes within the bone net, leaving only a few magical artifacts and divine weapons shimmering with spiritual light, as well as two storage rings, which fell with a "clang" onto the gravel-strewn ground.
In the distance, Xia Jiuyou's upper body rested on the cold rocks, blood continuously gushing from the corner of his mouth, staining the fairy feather robe on his chest red.
As she watched this horrific scene of betrayal, a cold smile curved her lips, but endless sorrow welled up in her eyes.
San Guang stood in the void, raised one hand, and the eight Dao Lord ribs returned to his palm like swallows returning to their nest, reforming into a complete sternum.
Looking at Bai Rong and You Ruo, who had turned to ashes, he coldly laughed and said, "It's all because your sects were weak and you didn't know that the Heavenly Dao Oath couldn't be touched deep within the Eternal Dao Mark."
"Hehehe... Hahaha." He laughed triumphantly and arrogantly. Even though Bai Rong and You Ruo's storage magic treasures were not far away, and he could obtain half a complete skeleton with just a flick of his wrist, he was still in no hurry.
In this desperate situation, apart from Xia Jiuyou, who was powerless to resist, there was no one else.
He is the absolute ruler here at this moment.
After laughing triumphantly, he slowly descended to the ground and walked toward the magical artifacts left behind by the two. "Moreover, you would never have guessed that when I found the remains of this Dao Lord, I obtained his inheritance. That's why I was able to refine this weapon so skillfully."
"The Great Dao is ruthless..." Xia Jiuyou murmured weakly upon hearing this, the blood he coughed up splattering onto the rocks, spreading a small patch of dark red.
"For immortality, for the sake of supreme treasures, would even sworn brothers kill each other?"
Xia Jiuyou slowly raised her eyes, gazing at the crisscrossing eternal Dao traces in the void. The gilded Dao patterns reflected in her empty eyes, gleaming with a cold light.
"What a pity... I, Xia Jiuyou, once vowed to forge an eternal path, to become famous throughout the endless universe, and to walk the path of a Great Emperor with my own power."
She continued to thirst for blood, her life force draining away even faster. "Now it seems that this path will ultimately end in this desolate void. Is this my destiny?"
At this moment, the entire void was filled with the triumphant arrogance of the Three Lights as victors. Their domineering confidence was almost tangible, making the surrounding deathly silent space seem to tremble.
Xia Jiuyou struggled frantically in the void, determined to risk his life to rush into the Crimson Cloud Domain to escape the pursuit.
