Perhaps Chu Linfeng underestimated Xiang Shaolong’s strength. Although Xiang Shaolong’s attack seemed casual, the energy behind it was enormous. A strike fueled by anger, using at least ninety percent of his power, was not something Chu Linfeng could resist with just one hit.

Though powerful, the Wind Blade seemed small and weak against an opponent as strong as Xiang Shaolong and was quickly completely dismantled by him. His attack power was not significantly diminished, and it struck Chu Linfeng with full force, sending him flying tens of meters and crashing into a building, causing it to collapse.

Xiang Shaolong, on the other hand, was only forced back a few meters by Chu Linfeng’s Sword Qi before stabilizing himself. He glanced at the nearby patriarch of the Yang Family because he posed a deadly threat to Mei’er beside him. Xiang Shaolong decided he must eliminate this person.

Just as he was moving to kill his opponent, the knocked-away Chu Linfeng suddenly appeared in front of him. Simultaneously, the Cyan Frost Sword in his hand swiftly executed a Star Slash. Only in this way could he push back Xiang Shaolong, allowing the patriarch of the Yang Family to escape unharmed.

When the Star Slash appeared, the skies changed dramatically. Its powerful attack instantly leveled the buildings within a few hundred meters. Xiang Shaolong returned to the girl’s side, creating an Energy Barrier in front of her to completely block Chu Linfeng’s attack.

Being able to directly block his most powerful martial skill was something Chu Linfeng found difficult to accept. At this moment, he gained a new understanding of Xiang Shaolong’s strength. This person must be a master at the Sixth Level of the Venerable Martial Realm, and Chu Linfeng realized he could likely not defeat him and had to handle it carefully.

"Quickly, leave. This person’s strength is unfathomable. Do not worry about my safety," Chu Linfeng hastily warned the patriarch of the Yang Family.

The patriarch of the Yang Family was wise and vanished into the air immediately. Upon seeing him leave, both Chu Linfeng and Xiang Shaolong sighed in relief—one concerned for his safety, the other for the woman’s.

Chu Linfeng was now struggling with surging blood in his chest. If not for his formidable defense, he might have already been severely injured by Xiang Shaolong. At this moment, he forcibly suppressed it; otherwise, he would have spat out a mouthful of reverse blood.

A trace of surprise flashed across Xiang Shaolong’s face. His strike actually did not kill this young man. It was truly heaven-defying. If this youth is not eliminated, he could potentially control the entire Netherworld, which is truly frightening.

"Kid, you could actually take my strike. It seems you indeed have some weight. But let’s see if you can escape my Double Space Domain," Xiang Shaolong said.

"Double Domain?" Just by the name, it was clear that it involved two domains. Xiang Shaolong is indeed not simple. It’s needless to say that this domain is certainly formidable. Although Chu Linfeng could communicate with the elements of a domain, he wasn’t sure if this Double Domain would be affected, so it was a challenge for him. It was the first time he felt such pressure.

"Lin Feng, this guy is extremely dangerous. He should have already broken through to the Sixth Level of the Venerable Martial Realm. He should be in the late stage of the Sixth Layer, and being able to perform a Double Domain indicates his excellent elemental mastery. With such power and patience, he is not simple at all. You must be cautious. If you can’t win, retreat quickly," Sword Spirit said to Chu Linfeng at this point.

Sword Spirit’s words made Chu Linfeng gasp in cold air. Xiang Shaolong turned out to be even more formidable than he imagined. It seemed that he needed to find a way to leave. At this moment, he was certainly not his opponent. Of course, if Chu Qing used the Body Immobilization Technique to freeze him, it would be different. But in doing so, Chu Qing would fall into slumber again, and Chu Linfeng would not let that happen.

"Old man, do you really think I’m afraid of you? Unfortunately, I have urgent matters, so I won’t play with you. Your Double Space Domain can be saved for someone else," Chu Linfeng said.

"Kid, do you think you can escape? Do you think there’s a possibility of running away from me? Face your death!" Xiang Shaolong’s aura suddenly changed, and a huge pressure came from the air. Despite Chu Linfeng possessing the Seventh Layer of Star Body’s defensive power, the pressure nearly made him stumble to the ground.

The Sixth Level of the Venerable Martial Realm was indeed terrifying. From being able to resist his Star Slash, one could tell. What Chu Linfeng didn’t know was that after reaching Venerable Martial Realm, the first five layers were of average strength. The Sixth Layer was a barrier. Only after breaking through it would one’s attack power multiply several times compared to the Fifth Layer. Perhaps even ten experts at the Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm couldn’t necessarily kill one expert at the Sixth Level.

"So strong!" was all Chu Linfeng could think, while he quickly used his Divine Sense to perceive the elemental molecules within Xiang Shaolong’s Double Space Domain.

Under such pressure, Chu Linfeng felt he could hold on for no longer than half a stick of incense’s time before he was crushed to pulp. Within that timeframe, Xiang Shaolong could use countless methods to end his life, as he couldn’t even move, completely at the mercy of his enemy.

However, he soon discovered that the water element in this space was very dense, indicating there was definitely a Water Domain within the Double Domain. So he quickly communicated with the Water Element, and within a few breaths, he successfully resonated with the Water Element, significantly reducing the pressure on him. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But still, he couldn’t move. There was another domain’s pressure on his body, so Chu Linfeng started to sense the other element. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong laughed and said, "Kid, you’re impressive—managing to last this long in my Double Domain. Your defensive power is indeed heaven-defying, but I won’t let you die within this domain. I’ll personally slice the flesh from your bones piece by piece, letting you die slowly in agony."

"Only then can I quell the hatred in my heart. The person who killed my beloved disciple must die a miserable, terrible death!"

At this moment, Chu Linfeng sensed the other element was actually the Fire Element. Perhaps others couldn’t detect this, but Xiang Shaolong had actually fused Water and Fire Elements. This Double Domain was water-based with fire as a secondary element. Fortunately, Chu Linfeng had long comprehended the Five Elements; otherwise, this time would be truly dangerous.

He quickly communicated with the Fire Element, while Xiang Shaolong, with a grim face, approached Chu Linfeng. "Why aren’t you running? Go on, run! Weren’t you very powerful? Now, let me see how strong your body defense is."

After Xiang Shaolong spoke, a sword thin as a cicada’s wing appeared in his hand. Its blade flashed with a ghostly light, clearly indicating it was no ordinary object. At this moment, Chu Linfeng resonated with the Fire Element, and the pressure on his body vanished instantly, restoring his freedom.

"Trying to slice my flesh? Not so easily!" thought Chu Linfeng fiercely. The Chaotic Dragon Power within his body was running wildly. He prepared for a sudden attack on Xiang Shaolong, intending to seize the opportunity to escape. Under such strong power, he had the self-awareness that he currently didn’t have the strength to confront him head-on.
