After the flames subsided, Karl's four protective wings suddenly trembled, dispersing all the remaining shockwaves from the explosion. Although Karl was not seriously injured in the annihilation, his face was filled with rage.
Irving and the other four also reacted quickly, and although they were not as relaxed as Karl, they did not suffer much damage.
Although Lin Bai's Annihilation was terrifying, he was still a Solid Realm cultivator. Therefore, the two Annihilation spells did not pose a fatal threat to Karl and the other five powerful Ascension Realm cultivators.
"I want you all to die here!"
Karl, wielding a white lightsaber, roared and flapped his four wings, instantly charging towards Chi Chen.
The four members of Irving also readjusted their formation, maintaining a certain distance from each other to prevent Lin Bai's annihilation from exploding among them again.
In just a moment, Karl was the first to reach Chi Chen.
"Dragon Eye!"
Behind Chi Chen, Qing Sheng, who had been motionless until now, suddenly attacked without warning. Qing Sheng's eyes turned into golden vertical pupils, and a wave that directly affected the mental level went towards Karl and the other five.
"Bang bang bang!"
At the same time, Qing Sheng fired more than ten shots in quick succession with his two guns, instantly emptying the bullets in both guns. More than ten bullets trailed long tongues of fire, and without hesitation, they shot towards the bodies and heads of Owen and the other three, who were slightly stunned by the Dragon Eye's ability.
"Pfft! Pfft!"
At the critical moment, Owen and his three companions broke free from the mind control. Seeing the bullets so close to their faces, their expressions changed drastically. They quickly swung their weapons to block the bullets heading straight for their heads.
"Ding ding ding!!"
Irving broke out in a cold sweat, and with a few quick thrusts of his dagger, he barely managed to deflect all the bullets heading his way.
However, the other three did not have Irving's quick reaction speed and precise strength.
"Ahh!"
"Ugh!"
With three cries of pain, one of them stared in disbelief at the bloody hole in his chest, then fell backward, his body stiff.
The other two were also shot, and their forward momentum was momentarily halted in mid-air due to the pain.
"Whoosh!"
Qingsheng completed all of this in less than two breaths, and at the same time used Dragon Eye on the five people, causing their spiritual power to drop rapidly. Now he felt weak and even his body was a little unsteady.
However, caught off guard, Celebration's ability also played a significant role, directly causing Karl to lose one more member and injure two more.
Seeing this, Lin Bai instantly arrived at Qing Sheng's side and helped him up when he almost fell. At the same time, Lin Bai seized the opportunity and threw out three Annihilation Bolts to finish off Owen and the other two.
Owen, who was already close to Qing Sheng and the other two, changed his expression again upon seeing this. He dared not confront Lin Bai's annihilation head-on and quickly pulled his body backward.
Owen's face was extremely ugly at this moment. He never expected that each of the four new Great Xia people would be so abnormal.
In less than ten minutes, two of them died and two were injured.
If the five mysterious figures over there are wiped out, their original advantage will vanish instantly, and they won't be able to leave!
Thinking of this, Owen couldn't help but curse Karl in his heart. If it weren't for that arrogant and ignorant noble brat who insisted on dragging his feet, they would have already grabbed the goods and left.
The other two, seeing another annihilation bomb explode beside them, dared not linger for a moment, dragging their wounded bodies as they rolled to either side.
Now their hearts are filled with fear. Two people have already died, and they are injured. If more people are to die, they can guess who will die first without even thinking.
Meanwhile, when Qing Sheng used Dragon Eye earlier, Karl's white armor emitted a burst of light, blocking part of the power of Dragon Eye for him. Therefore, Karl only lost his focus for a moment before regaining his senses.
Then, with a swing of his lightsaber, a beam of light shot out from the lightsaber, instantly severing several bullets in front of him.
During this time, Chi Chen naturally wouldn't let go of the opportunity that Qing Sheng had created for him, and he raised his long sword and slashed at Karl's head.
"Click!"
Chi Chen's longsword collided with Karl's holy helmet, producing a sound. However, this time, Chi Chen failed to cleave Karl's helmet in two, leaving only a crack.
But this was enough to shock Karl. He was at the peak of the Ascension Realm and possessed the Holy Light of Four Wings. Chi Chen, who was at the Solid Realm, actually cleaved a crack in his defensive armor with a single strike. This kind of combat power was beyond Karl's comprehension.
Karl now realized that it wasn't their own Ascension Realm cultivator who had been careless and thus suffered a setback, but rather Chi Chen—who was far too terrifying.
Although Karl was shocked, he did not stop moving. His lightsaber trembled slightly, and a sword beam was released, heading towards Chi Chen.
Upon seeing this, Chi Chen's eyes narrowed, and he used his longsword to deflect the sword light.
The separated sword beams split into two, but they struck the Battle Saint Armor without stopping.
Chi Chen was knocked back slightly by the force of the sword light. He frowned and looked at the Battle Saint Armor on his body, which had two cracks. His eyes were fixed on the lightsaber in Karl's hand.
That should also be a forbidden item, and its level is no lower than that of one's own Silk Domain.
Chi Chen glanced at Lin Bai and Qing Sheng. At this moment, Lin Bai was constantly using Annihilation to hinder Owen and the other two from advancing. Lin Bai was also firing his gun continuously, but Qing Sheng, whose mental strength was greatly depleted, was obviously unable to hold on. Both the speed and accuracy of his bullets had decreased significantly.
Although Lin Bai used the power of Annihilation to slow down Owen and the others' advance, he was still a Solid Mirror, and the continuous use of Annihilation was making his face pale and gradually weakening. Therefore, it was only a matter of time before Owen and the other two rushed to Lin Bai and Qing Sheng's side, and the time would be extremely short.
On the other side, although the injuries of the five mysterious beings at the Ascending Mirror had worsened after Hu Miaomiao joined them, under the glow of the red moon, even the five mysterious beings, who were already extremely resilient, could not be instantly killed by Hu Miaomiao and the others.
It seems that only Chi Chen himself can help Lin Bai and Qing Sheng by finding a way to end the battle as soon as possible.
Having observed the situation everywhere, Chi Chen didn't hesitate and a smile appeared on his face.
"Then let's use you as the first test subject!"
Within the Soul Prison, a mysterious soul at the Ascension Realm was extracted by Chi Chen and instantly devoured without hesitation.
In an instant, an even stronger aura emanated from Chi Chen, and an even more abundant spiritual power overflowed from Chi Chen's mind.
"Ugh!"
The feeling of comfort made Chi Chen groan involuntarily, but Karl opposite him instantly changed his expression.
"How is this possible?!"
Karl stared in disbelief at Chi Chen, who suddenly showed signs of reaching the Ascension Realm, his heart filled with horror.
"Hey!"
Chi Chen sneered and his body shot out. In an instant, Karl was enveloped by Chi Chen's battle domain.
Carlton's heart sank, as if he were sinking into a quagmire, but Chi Chen wouldn't give him a chance to think.
With the longsword and the field of lines activated simultaneously, Karl's expression changed drastically. He swung his lightsaber with all his might, sending several sword beams toward Chi Chen.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!..."
Chi Chen drew lines with his longsword, slashing several times in the air like lightning, dispersing the sword light coming towards him.
At the same time, the Line Domain arrived in front of Karl. Karl's four wings swooped forward, emitting bursts of white light, which blocked the Line Domain, which was as sharp as steel needles.
But as Karl withdrew his four wings, Chi Chen's leaping figure was already right in front of him.
"You can't kill me! I'm a core member of the Karl family. If you kill me, the Nordic theater will launch a full-scale war against your Great Xia!"
Karl's face was filled with terror as he raised his lightsaber and roared in fear.
Although he had a lot of sparring experience in Dawn City, he had never truly experienced a life-or-death battle.
At this moment, Chi Chen's terrifying power had already thrown him into a panic, and he actually thought of using his own status to suppress Chi Chen.
But what awaited him was the pitch-black longsword in Chi Chen's hand.
Chi Chen swung his longsword, cleaving the lightsaber in Karl's hand in two, and then unleashed another powerful forward slash!
"Snap!"
Karl's white armor shattered instantly, and at the same time, a line of blood appeared that stretched from his head to his chest.
"Karl! Damn it!"
Not far away, Owen, who had rushed to Lin Bai and Qing Sheng, noticed the commotion and turned around abruptly, looking at the scene with utter shock.
Then, Owen's face hardened, and without hesitation, he turned and fled in another direction. Seeing this, the other two also hurriedly dragged their injured bodies away.
Seeing this, Chi Chen hesitated for a moment and did not pursue.
A few minutes later, the five people who had been besieged earlier stared blankly at the mysterious corpse on the ground and Karl's cold body.
