The way Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi stared at each other was like two old foxes plotting how to empty your wallet, making Lin Yi and the others feel uneasy.
Su Qing's situation was even worse; her face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and her breathing was so weak it was like a mosquito's buzz, as if she could kick the bucket at any moment.
"Oh no, they're going all out!" Alarm bells rang in Lin Yi's mind. These two guys were definitely holding back some kind of killer move!
As expected, Night Owl and Xuanmingzi suddenly became incredibly energetic, their attack frequency and intensity increasing dramatically, almost like machine guns, spewing out energy bullets.
"Holy crap, are these two crazy?!" Long Wu cursed as he waved his fists to defend himself.
Any one of those energy blasts could have blasted him to smithereens. If he hadn't awakened the "True Dragon Bloodline," which greatly increased his physical strength, he would have been dead long ago.
Aizen also activated "serious mode," with the light of the Hogyoku flickering around him like a super cannonball ready to be launched at any moment.
He kept adjusting his attack angle, trying to find the enemy's weakness and deliver a fatal blow.
Whitebeard stayed close to Su Qing, his weapon flashing so fast it was impenetrable, deflecting every energy blast aimed at her.
He knew in his heart that Su Qing was their biggest weakness and they absolutely could not let her get hurt in any way.
However, faced with the frenzied attacks of Night Owl and Xuanmingzi, the group was still somewhat overwhelmed and in a state of disarray.
After all, these two are neither good people; one is the leader of the interdimensional invaders, and the other is the incarnation of the mastermind of the Infinite game.
At this critical moment, Chu Yao's voice suddenly rang in Lin Yi's mind: "Lin Yi, I've noticed something wrong with their energy fluctuations! When Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi attack together, there's a brief energy disturbance!"
"Energy disorder?!" A thought flashed through Lin Yi's mind; this might be their chance to counterattack!
He took a deep breath, channeling the power of [Time and Space Domination] to its limit, concentrating all his energy, and staring intently at Night Owl and Xuan Mingzi's attacks.
His eyes were as sharp as a falcon's, not missing the slightest change.
Finally, when Night Owl and Xuanmingzi launched another joint attack, Lin Yi caught a fleeting glimpse of energy disorder.
In that instant, time seemed to slow down, and everything became incredibly clear.
"Now!" Lin Yi roared inwardly, instantly activating the [Time and Space Domination] ability—[Time and Space Imprisonment]!
An invisible barrier instantly unfolded, temporarily blocking the energy attacks of Night Owl and Xuanmingzi.
Although it was only a brief moment, it was enough for Lin Yi and his group.
"Aizen, Ryugo, now's the time! Beat them hard!" Lin Yi roared.
Aizen had been preparing for this for a long time, and upon hearing Lin Yi's command, he immediately released the power of the Hogyoku.
A dazzling light ripped through the sky, carrying an aura of annihilation, and slammed into Night Owl and Xuanmingzi.
Long Wu also rushed out like an arrow released from a bow. His "True Dragon Bloodline" was fully activated, and a faint golden light surrounded his body.
He roared and pounded his fists at the enemy, each punch carrying the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.
Seeing this, Whitebeard breathed a sigh of relief. With Aizen and Ryugo's powerful attacks, Su Qing was temporarily safe.
He wielded his weapon even more vigorously, providing support for Aizen and Ryugo to prevent the enemy from launching a counterattack.
With everyone's combined attack, Night Owl and Xuanmingzi's offensive was temporarily suppressed, and the originally precarious situation was given a chance to catch its breath.
Night Owl wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Lin Yi. He really couldn't understand why this ant, who should have been played with by him, was now able to threaten him.
“You guys…” Night Owl’s voice was hoarse and deep, as if it came from the depths of hell, “Don’t get too cocky…”
Before he could finish speaking, Night Owl suddenly did something unexpected: he slowly raised his hands...
What is he trying to do? Surrender?
impossible!
Lin Yi's vigilance instantly reached its peak.
A sinister smile curled at the corner of Night Owl's lips.
"Since you're so eager to play..." Night Owl's voice became unusually hoarse, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, "then I'll play with you to my heart's content..."
He slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky, as if communicating with some unknown entity.
"Can you... afford the price...?"
The owl's sinister laugh sent chills down one's spine, as if a venomous snake were lurking in the shadows.
He raised his head and stared at the sky, his eyes seeming to want to punch a hole in it.
A suffocating sense of oppression filled the air; everyone felt as if an invisible hand was choking them, making it difficult to breathe.
Long Wu couldn't help but spit out: "Pah! You're just putting on airs. I can't stand pretentious people like you!" With that, he was about to rush forward again to give Night Owl a hard blow.
"Don't be impulsive!" Lin Yi grabbed him, sensing that something bad was about to happen.
"Be careful, it might be a trap!"
Aizen narrowed his eyes, his gaze behind his glasses sharp as a knife.
He could sense that the energy within the Night Owl was accumulating at a frantic rate, like a volcano about to erupt, which, once it did, would be a force capable of destroying the world.
Whitebeard gripped his weapon tightly, his palms beginning to sweat.
He was a seasoned veteran who had seen countless storms, but even this situation made him feel uneasy.
Su Qing's breathing grew weaker and weaker, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
Looking at her pale face, the white-bearded man was filled with worry and anxiety.
Suddenly, Night Owl's lips curled into a ferocious grin, and his voice became sharp and piercing, like fingernails scraping against glass.
"Since you want to play, then let me show you what true despair is!"
He suddenly spread his arms wide, looked up to the sky and roared: "Come on, let these ants feel the power of the gods!"
As he finished speaking, the sky suddenly darkened, and a blood-red pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping the night owl.
The light was eerie and malevolent, as if it were about to devour the entire world.
Lin Yi's heart sank to the bottom.
"Chu Yao, quickly analyze this! What the hell is this?!" Lin Yi frantically called out to Chu Yao in his mind, hoping she could find a way to break it.
However, Chu Yao's voice was filled with terror: "Lin Yi, I... I can't analyze it! This power... is beyond my comprehension!"
Under the crimson beam of light, Night Owl's body began to undergo bizarre changes. His skin turned crimson, and his blood vessels writhed beneath his skin like earthworms. His eyes also turned blood red, filled with madness and bloodlust.
He slowly turned his head to look at Lin Yi, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Are you ready... to face death...?"
