672 Defend! Sudden Change! (2)

“Blood… Life… I… have finally returned from the endless hell! Hahahahaha!”

From the huge skeleton, a wild laugh sounded. Then, a black vortex released a terrifying Power of Devouring, directly covering all the green giants and blue ghosts who were still fighting in the Heavenly Mysterious Realm, devouring their lives and blood.

Below, everyone’s expressions were solemn as they looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the old man in golden armor revealed a weak expression. He supported himself with the golden sword in his hand and his eyes flickered with dense battle intent.

In the black vortex, a terrifying aura was emitted at this moment. He could sense that even at his peak, he was definitely not a match for the existence behind the vortex!

As for him, he already had the strength of 30 meridians of the Great Dao. As for the others in the team, most of them were below 20 meridians. Even if they could form a formation to deal with the enemy, they could only deal with enemies with about 35 meridians of the Great Dao.

If the existence behind the vortex was too strong, even if 500 of them attacked together, they would definitely not be the other party’s match!

Furthermore, after a bitter battle, they were no longer in their peak state!

Moreover, they had been fighting all year round. Which one of them did not have any hidden injuries? Therefore, if they really considered, it would be very difficult for them to unleash their true strength even at their peak.

“Captain! What should we do?”

A group of people had already surrounded the old man with solemn expressions.

“Fight! Even if we die, we can’t let the other party break through! Behind us… there are still 2,000 injured brothers. Once the other party attacks… our Heavenly Mysterious Realm will suffer heavy losses!”

The old man said in a low voice. Then, he sighed and took out an old medicine bottle from his belt. He poured out a golden pill and muttered, “This is the last Meridian Opening Pill. Don’t worry, I’ll go up to fight alone later. You guys form a formation behind me and provide me with strength.”

“Understood!”

Meridian Opening Pill was a strategic pill.

After consuming it, one could forcefully increase the strength of five meridians in the Great Dao Realm. The medicinal effect lasted for 15 minutes. After the medicinal effect ended, unless the meridians in the body were abnormally tough, the user would be damaged by the violent aura of Heaven and Earth and their realm would drop.

As for how many realms they would fall, everything depended on fate.

Guang Taichong was originally an expert at the 40 meridians of the Great Dao Realm, but after years of battle, his body was constantly injured. Coupled with the fact that he had taken the Meridian Opening Pill many times to fight, he had already fallen to the 30 meridians of the Great Dao Realm.

This time, when he used the Meridian Opening Pill again, his strength would definitely fall below 30 meridians. This way, his realm would fall more than 10 realms. Even if a Great Dao Realm expert had a tenacious life force, he would still be in danger of dying from the backlash of the power of heaven and earth!

This was because in the introduction of the Meridian Opening Pill of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm Guard Army, it had been mentioned that if one used the Meridian Opening Pill, their cultivation realm could not drop by more than ten levels. Otherwise, if they continued to consume it and fight, their lives would be in danger!

At this moment, Guang Taichong was already indifferent to life and death.

It was not that he was not afraid of death, but… there were too many important things behind him that he needed to protect.

Comrades, relatives, disciples, hometown… Countless beautiful things were waiting for him to protect.

If he could not step forward this time, the losses of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm would further increase. At that time… the bandits from the Outer Realm would definitely become worse. The Heavenly Mysterious Realm was already in a precarious state. He could not give up everything just because of his own life and death.

Therefore, he had to stand up!

If he stood up, the others would be able to survive.

In his opinion, it was already very profitable for one person to die if thousands of people could live.

Wasn’t he saved by his teacher like this back then?

Now, it was time for him to take this step and protect the person behind him in the same way.

“Hahaha! Meridian Opening Pill? How bold! However… even if you swallow this pill, you still won’t be my match!”

A mocking laugh came from the black vortex. Then, a pale figure walked out of the black vortex. His body was more than 100 feet tall. His entire body was white and covered in purple patterns. He had four arms, and each arm was holding a different weapon.

There was a wolf fang club, a shield, a rope, and a wine jar.

His eyes were like red lanterns that emitted a bloodthirsty light. Flames rose above his head and formed the shape of his hair. There was a pair of white bone wings on his back. It was condensed from the corpses of the Undead Bone Dragons.

Behind him was a tail covered in purple venom. As it swayed, space shattered and purple fog rose, as if it wanted to envelop the surroundings.

“You’re… Venerable White Bones?!”

Below, Guang Taichong’s expression darkened as he questioned with an ugly expression.

The Venerable was a respectful title for experts in the outer regions.

Just like a Monarch. When one’s combat strength reached Above the Great Dao, they could become a Monarch.

On the other hand, if one’s combat strength reached Perfection in the Great Dao, they could become a King!

Below that were the Venerable.

Anyone who could be conferred the title of Venerable was an expert with more than 50 meridians of the Great Dao. Even Guang Taichong at his peak had no chance of winning!

Even if he took the Meridian Opening Pill at his peak and had more than a thousand teammates providing him with energy, it was impossible!

At this moment, Guang Taichong’s heart was completely cold.

“Sigh… Forget it.”

He let out a long sigh and took out another bottle of medicinal pills. From it, he poured out three medicinal pills in a row. They were all Meridian Opening Pills.

Then, he took out a bottle of red liquid. This was the blood essence of a true dragon. Once he consumed it, he would obtain the power of an ancient true dragon in a short period of time and greatly increase his strength!

He had decided that this time, he did not intend to rely on his teammates. He wanted to swallow four Meridian Opening Pills at once and drink the True Dragon Blood Essence to fight to the death with his opponent!

Regardless of victory or defeat, he would definitely die in this battle.

Moreover, if he consumed so many Meridian Opening Pills at once, be it his life source or soul source, they would dissipate under the backlash of the power of heaven and earth and he would never be reborn!

This time, there was no chance of survival!

“Captain! You…”

“There’s no need to say anything else. Leave. Evacuate the injured quickly and inform the commanders. Leave the matters here to me.”

Guang Taichong interrupted everyone.

“No! We want to stay and fight alongside you!”

When the others heard this, they immediately shouted.

“Fools! Surviving is the best choice!”

However, Guang Taichong was unmoved. He berated and waved his hand. He ordered, “Stop talking. This is a military order! You have to carry it out!”

Everyone fell silent when they heard this, and the surroundings fell into a dead silence.

“Hahaha, what a touching scene! The people of your Heavenly Mysterious Realm… are really interesting! You have countless natural treasures, but you’re actually still so weak. In my opinion, don’t struggle anymore. If you surrender, our Outer Realm Alliance can give you a promise to let you people live in the Void Battlefield and preserve your life flames. What do you think?”

Venerable White Bones laughed and teased, “Don’t despise the harsh conditions of the Void Battlefield. It’s already our Outer Realm Alliance to give you a way out! Also, I think you have some backbone. Why don’t you offer your life source? I guarantee that the brothers behind you can live.”

“Bullshit!”

Guang Taichong shouted coldly and said, “Don’t think that you’ll win for sure! You’ve just been reborn, so your strength is definitely not at your peak! If I take the pills and True Dragon Blood Essence, you might not be my match!”

“Haha! You’re right! But… old thing, don’t forget that your strength is only temporary. As long as I hide for the time being and wait for you to die before making a move, what can you do to me?”

When Venerable White Bones heard this, he smiled faintly. “So, you’d better not waste this treasure. Obediently offer your life source and True Dragon Blood Essence. Ignoring everything else, I’m still confident in protecting you and your subordinates.”

“This deal is very worth it. It’s not worth it for you to sacrifice yourself for the injured trash behind you. Moreover… even if you die, can they really live? Don’t daydream.”

Venerable White Bones said word by word.

With his strength, there was no need for him to fight head-on with the crazy Guang Taichong. His speed was not slow. As long as he delayed the other party’s rhythm and waited for the medicinal effect to dissipate, the other party would be a dead dog and would not be able to cause much trouble.

From the beginning, he did not take Guang Taichong seriously.
