The man in purple robes dared not be negligent in the slightest. He brandished his divine sword, transforming it into streaks of incomparably sharp sword light, fiercely slashing at the flying swords that swarmed in like locusts.
However, despite his best efforts, every time he successfully blocked one wave of attacks, more flying swords would surge in like a never-ending tide.
As for the man and woman, due to their slightly weaker strength, they only managed to hold out for a few seconds before being killed by the flying sword and both of them vanished into thin air.
The man in purple robes turned extremely grim upon seeing this scene.
The three of them had just joined forces and couldn't do anything to Ling Xueyan, so how could he possibly be left alone now?
Just then, the purple-robed man suddenly realized that his connection with the golden dragon formed from sword energy was becoming weaker and weaker.
It turns out that Ling Xueyan was cleverly using the power of the laws to gradually erode the connection between them.
If this crucial connection is completely severed, his strength will be greatly diminished, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
At this critical moment of life and death, the man in purple robes made a decisive and extremely risky decision.
He actually abandoned a portion of his defensive power and instead gathered the remaining divine power in his body to forcefully unleash a divine technique of unparalleled power, charging straight towards Ling Xueyan with an indomitable momentum!
Ling Xueyan never expected that her opponent had such a powerful move hidden!
Just as she was caught off guard, the incredibly powerful divine technique struck her protective shield like lightning.
Although Xueyan reacted immediately, it was ultimately too late.
With a loud "bang," one corner of the light shield couldn't withstand the enormous impact and was actually blasted open with a tiny crack!
In that instant, this seemingly insignificant crack became like a hole gnawed out of a dam by ants.
Although it started out small, it spread at an astonishing speed, causing the originally indestructible light shield to shake violently, as if it might collapse and fall at any moment.
Ling Xueyan was startled by the sight. She never expected that the man in purple robes would be so resolute and resort to such a ruthless tactic.
However, she was not a novice, but a seasoned veteran who had experienced countless life-and-death battles.
After a brief moment of shock, she quickly calmed down and forced herself to regain her composure.
Immediately afterwards, she unhesitatingly mobilized an even more powerful force of law, continuously pouring it into the precarious light shield, doing her utmost to try to repair and strengthen it.
The man in purple robes, of course, would not let go of this fleeting, perfect opportunity.
While Ling Xueyan was busy repairing the light shield, he had a sudden thought and recalled some of the flying swords that had been scattered by the violent impact. He then quickly redeployed a tight defensive line.
He knew very well that his attack had only temporarily disrupted Ling Xueyan's rhythm. If he couldn't strike while the iron was hot and press his advantage, he would have little chance of winning once she recovered and launched a counterattack.
After a period of intense and busy repair work, Ling Xueyan finally succeeded in repairing the light shield.
At this moment, a hint of coldness appeared in her beautiful eyes, as if they were as cold and piercing as she stared intently at the purple-robed man not far away.
She said coldly, "Hmph! Don't be so naive as to think you can defeat me with such a trivial trick!"
Before she finished speaking, her hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals. As the hand seals changed, visible ripples appeared in the surrounding space.
Then, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded—countless crystal-clear icicles appeared out of thin air without warning, shooting towards the purple-robed man with an incomparably fierce momentum, like a sudden storm.
Faced with the overwhelming attack of ice shards, the man in purple robes remained calm and shouted.
In an instant, his already magnificent purple robe seemed to be filled with a powerful force, and it swelled up instantly.
In the blink of an eye, a thick shield formed around him, completely protecting him.
At the same time, he once again displayed his exquisite swordsmanship, manipulating the divine sword in his hand to unleash a dazzling light.
Runes shimmered and flowed on the blade of the divine sword. In the next moment, these mysterious runes transformed into a gigantic python engulfed in raging flames, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged at Ling Xueyan.
Ling Xueyan frowned, let out a cold snort, and suddenly unleashed her aura.
She quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from her body.
As she moved, the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force, and began to gather wildly, gradually forming a high-speed rotating whirlwind.
This whirlwind, like a roaring dragon, carried an incomparably fierce momentum and swept straight towards the giant fire serpent.
Wherever it passed, the air was torn apart in visible ripples, emitting sharp whistling sounds.
Despite Ling Xueyan's fierce attack, the giant fire python did not retreat in the slightest.
It opened its gaping maw and spewed out bursts of blazing flames, which collided violently with the oncoming whirlwind.
In an instant, flames shot into the sky, and heat waves rolled in, as if the entire space had been ignited.
The enormous impact of the collision caused the ground to tremble violently, sending countless fragments of stone and dust flying into the air.
Ling Xueyan and the giant fire python stood still, staring intently at each other, their eyes flashing with undisguised hostility and fighting spirit.
And so, the two sides went back and forth, each displaying their unique skills, and for a time it was difficult to determine a winner. This thrilling battle intensified, showing no signs of abating.
Neither Ling Xueyan nor the Flame Python were willing to back down even a step easily, determined to defeat each other completely.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, the man in purple robes thought to himself that if things continued like this, both sides would only suffer heavy losses.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him, and he remembered a secret treasure that his master, the Prophet Wang, had given him.
This treasure has never been used before; today might be an opportunity.
While the giant fire python distracted Ling Xueyan, the man in purple robes secretly took out a secret treasure from his robes.
It was a bead that emitted a ghostly blue light, called the Burst Bead.
The Bursting Beads are incredibly powerful, but unfortunately they are single-use consumables.
However, given the current situation, he has no time to hesitate.
Immediately, the purple-robed man gritted his teeth and poured his divine power into the exploding bead, which instantly shone brightly.
He seized the opportunity and threw the exploding bead at Ling Xueyan.
Ling Xueyan sensed a dangerous aura approaching, but it was too late to dodge.
