Faced with the fierce onslaught of the ball, Bai Lietian decided to act without hesitation, knowing he had to control the situation first. Without hesitation, he displayed a set of superior-grade divine artifact equipment and conjured a large sword-shaped main divine artifact in his hand. As the artifact's power flowed into his body, his strength instantly surged by more than 30%.

Facing the charging, mysterious ball, Bai Lietian's expression turned solemn as he shouted, "White Scale Divine Slash!" In an instant, a dazzling white light appeared on the greatsword, as awe-inspiring as lightning piercing the night sky. He didn't directly contact the ball, but instead used his qi to control the blade, unleashing a divine technique in mid-air to slash down at it. The enormous white light instantly expanded to an immeasurable size, rapidly striking its target with overwhelming force.

However, to the astonishment of everyone present, the seemingly harmless ball, facing such a powerful attack, did not seem to show any fear. Instead, it met the impending devastating slash in an unbelievable way...

Qiuqiu took the slash seriously. Just as Bai Lietian's "White Scale Divine Slash" was about to hit, it instantly transformed into a streak of light, nimbly dodging the heaven-splitting blade. Not only that, while dodging the attack, it also bounced back at an extremely tricky angle. Its speed and power astonished everyone.

Like a shooting star streaking across the sky, Qiuqiu hurtled straight towards Bai Lietian. Although Bai Lietian was shocked by Qiuqiu's reaction speed and counterattack power, he was, after all, a veteran of countless battles and experienced. At the critical moment, he forcibly adjusted his posture and swung his broadsword again to try to block the impact.

However, the force of the ball's impact far exceeded his expectations. Even with all his efforts in using divine artifacts and spells to defend, he was still forced to retreat repeatedly, his blood and qi churning within him.

Bai Lietian's face instantly turned pale, his eyes flickering with uncertainty. He took a deep breath, forcibly calming the surging blood and qi within him, and pushed off with his feet, trying to regain his footing. However, the shockwave from the impact of the ball was as powerful as a tidal wave, and even someone as powerful as him could not completely neutralize it.

His body trembled violently in mid-air. As he was knocked back, the divine power shield surrounding him teetered precariously, nearly shattering. His wide eyes flashed with shock and disbelief, and he was secretly horrified: not only had he become a god-king at such a young age, but he also possessed such terrifying strength. It was truly terrifying.

Everyone present, including Mengjia and Juliangzai who were already locked in fierce combat, was shocked by the scene and stopped what they were doing, their eyes all focused on the intense battle between Bai Lietian and Qiuqiu.

......

Bai Lietian's heart was in turmoil. He realized he might have underestimated this seemingly harmless ball. Where did that power come from? Why could it so easily break through his defenses, even putting such pressure on a seasoned and powerful God-King like himself?

If Qiuqiu knew what he was thinking, she would definitely gloat. The power of the world is much more powerful than pure divine power. No matter what kind of divine power it is, it will be completely suppressed in front of the power of the world.

Next, Qiuqiu launched a frenzied attack, forcing Bai Lietian to defend.

The ball seemed to see through everything, each attack precisely targeting Bai Lietian's defensive weaknesses. That power, if it could express itself, would proudly proclaim: this is the manifestation of the power of the world, an existence surpassing ordinary divine power. Each of its impacts not only carried immense physical destructive force but also contained a suppressive and dissipating effect on divine power itself.

Faced with the relentless onslaught of the ball, Bai Lietian was forced into a defensive posture. He had to mobilize every ounce of divine power in his body, and even attempt to use divine artifacts to fight against the power of the world. Each block and each deflection only deepened his shock—this power had exceeded his original understanding.

Under Bai Huabing's tense and worried gaze, Bai Lietian did his best to maintain his divine power shield, while also pondering how to turn the tide of the battle. He knew that only by finding a way to confront the power of the world could he regain the initiative in this contest of power. But for now, this seemingly harmless ball had become an unprecedented formidable opponent.

Looking at the slime-like ball, Bai Lietian cursed inwardly: What kind of race is this? And what kind of energy is this? It's even stronger than divine power?

bump!

Bai Lietian suppressed the churning blood within him, his face pale yet maintaining a composed demeanor. He silently calculated: if this continued, not only would he be unable to protect the Divine Child, but his own life would also be in danger. Faced with this life-or-death situation, he decided to resort to a final measure—transforming into his true form, using his most powerful form and strength to forge an escape route.

drink!

After a defensive play, Bai Lietian couldn't help but catch his breath.

Seeing this, Qiuqiu immediately said, "No way? Really? You're a dignified God-King, and you're already showing signs of fatigue after just a few moves?"

Bai Lietian smiled bitterly and replied, "Hehe, although I am a God King, I have been guarding the Divine Dynasty for many years and have become less skilled in actual combat. I am indeed not as brave as I used to be." After saying this, a resolute look flashed in his eyes. He knew that there was no room for hesitation at this moment. He instantly mobilized all his divine power and began the dangerous transformation process, hoping to take this opportunity to escape this perilous battlefield with the Divine Child.

Why is the transformation process dangerous? Because during the transformation, there is no way to defend yourself; your body is full of openings, and one hit can take away half your life. However, during the transformation, your divine power will increase significantly, which will likely make people wary, thus achieving the effect of buying time.

A massive surge of divine power erupted from Bai Lietian's body. As expected, Qiuqiu did not seize the opportunity to attack, but instead retreated a few steps cautiously. There was no way around it; the transformation method of the Bailin Divine Dynasty would elicit this reaction from anyone seeing it for the first time.

After a few seconds of building momentum, a thunderous roar erupted into the sky, and Bai Lietian successfully transformed into a mighty white dragon, its scales shimmering with dazzling light as it hovered in the air.

Seeing this, Qiuqiu blinked. Hmm, that's pretty awesome. His divine power increased by more than 50%.

Roar! The white dragon that Bai Lietian had transformed into roared and then charged down, seemingly to attack Qiuqiu.

Just as Qiuqiu was about to counterattack, the giant dragon suddenly made a sharp turn and rushed towards the Heart of the Divine Island, where Bai Huabing was located. Qiuqiu was completely dumbfounded.
