Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family-Chapter 175 - 171: The Celestial Mandate Arrives, Fulfilling Everyone’s Expectations!
Boom!!!
In the sky, a massive gray mushroom cloud sprang up.
Immediately afterward, a surge of black flames spread in an arc, turning the entire sky into a sea of fire in an instant!
A graceful figure in a palace dress flew backward out of the sea of fire, landing heavily on the ground, retreating several steps before stabilizing.
"Meng Hedong..."
Li Ran’s face was pale, the water pattern longsword in her hand bore charred marks from the flames, and her wrist trembled slightly.
The once fallen genius had completely come into his own!
"Your Highness the Saintess!"
"Junior Sister Li!"
In the blink of an eye, the expressions of the Celestial Wave disciples changed slightly, and they quickly stepped forward.
"I’m fine."
Li Ran took a deep breath and waved to everyone, signaling them not to come over.
In mid-air.
Meng Hedong’s black robe fluttered, with two flames dancing in his eyes.
He looked down at Li Ran and spoke calmly:
"In these ten years, I’ve imagined countless times facing you, yet this time finally encountering you, your strength seems to disappoint me a bit."
With these words.
Before the mountain gate, countless loose cultivators witnessed the scene and immediately their eyes flashed with excitement, cheering loudly.
"Hahaha, the so-called Celestial Wave Saintess, it seems that’s all there is to her!"
"She’s not even a match for Meng Tianjiao!"
"With this? She dares to call off the engagement with Meng Tianjiao?"
"Well done! I bet that Li Ran’s heart is extremely complicated right now?"
"Hehe, if I were Li Ran, I’d regret it so much I’d be turning blue with remorse!"
"Meng Tianjiao is invincible!"
"This is how a true man should be!"
"Sharpening a sword in ten years, the frost blade never tested! Today I show you, who dares to defy! Hahaha, it’s truly satisfying!!"
The loose cultivators laughed heartily, looking at Meng Hedong in mid-air with faces full of admiration.
At this moment.
Meng Hedong seemed like the one everyone looked up to, with the celestial mandate!
The dream self countless grassroots cultivators once imagined but could never achieve!
At the mountain gate.
Chen Zhixing couldn’t help but slightly shake his head at the sight, a faint and indescribable smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Worthy of a Celestial Chosen Protagonist, playing it all so well.
In the crowd, the yellow-clad little poison immortal girl looked on with worshipful eyes on her small face.
"Not worthy of Brother Meng, so amazing!" she said joyfully.
The next moment.
The little poison immortal looked at Li Ran, snorting proudly through her small nose:
"You wicked woman, you looked down on Brother Meng back then, now you’re getting your comeuppance, right?"
"The Brother Meng you ignored back then, the Brother Meng now is beyond your reach."
Li Ran hearing this gazed at the little poison immortal, unable to help but shake her head slightly.
Just an ignorant little girl.
Seeing things from only one perspective.
No point in arguing with such a little girl.
"So what? Have you won already?"
Li Ran gently wiped away a trace of red from her lip, looking at Meng Hedong and speaking calmly.
"Oh?"
Meng Hedong raised an eyebrow, indifferently saying, "I initially thought if you could yield now, I might not hold it against you."
"It’s a pity, you’re still as obstinate as back then. Do you still think you’re my match even now?"
Li Ran said nothing, but looked at Meng Hedong with unwavering determination.
Meng Hedong saw this and couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.
"Very well, since you are so delusional..."
Boom!!
A flicker erupted in his eyes, a trace of fury flashing across his face.
"Then don’t blame me for ruining you today!!"
At the moment those words fell.
Meng Hedong seemed to transform into a blazing meteor, tearing through the void, fiercely slashing down toward Li Ran.
"Twist!"
Li Ran’s expression turned cold, as a vast amount of spiritual power surged out once more.
Meng Hedong, originally slashing down toward Li Ran, suddenly faltered in his expression, his black heavy blade slightly deviated by several inches, striking heavily onto the bluestone ground in front of the mountain gate.
Crack!
A gigantic crack spread instantly from where the blade struck, as if cleaving the entire ground in two!
A faint breeze carried away the aftermath, vanishing completely.
That was the Sect Protection Array of the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands.
"Twist? Did she use Divine Thought to temporarily distort my senses?"
Meng Hedong raised an eyebrow slightly, quickly comprehending everything.
"What about this?"
Meng Hedong suddenly clenched his five fingers into a claw.
"Fire Technique: Draw the Ground as a Prison!"
Chh——!
In the blink of an eye, countless black flames sprouted from the ground, growing savagely!
In just a breath, the countless flames that burst from the ground turned into walls and barriers of fire, sealing Li Ran from all directions like a prison!
"Collapse!"
Meng Hedong pressed down with his right hand, spitting out a word.
Boom——!
The fiery walls and barriers simultaneously collapsed toward Li Ran, engulfing her within.
The entire hundred zhang area around the mountain gate transformed into a raging sea of fire!
Countless cultivators watching the scene immediately retreated backward to avoid any collateral damage.
Chen Zhixing gently waved a hand, the menacing fire abruptly halted several dozen meters in front of him as if blocked by an invisible barrier.
In the next moment, Chen Zhixing calmly looked toward the sea of fire.
In this battle, Li Ran would not be Meng Hedong’s match.
This outcome had been predetermined.
But Li Ran would also not be defeated so easily.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be the Celestial Wave Saintess.
"Moon Charge!"
From within the surging sea of fire, a figure in a sky-blue palace dress soared into the sky.
"Water Technique: Thousand Transformations!"
Li Ran’s right hand formed a seal, once again turning into dozens of hazy figures attacking toward Meng Hedong!
"Petty tricks."
Meng Hedong suddenly raised his head, his right hand clawing once more.
"Dragon Entanglement!"
Swoosh——!
The vast fiery ocean below instantly solidified, transforming into fire dragons rising into the sky, entangling and attacking the countless shadowy figures of Li Ran from all directions!
Splatter!
One by one, Li Ran’s shadowy clones were shredded by the fire dragons, dissolving into streams of water.
In that moment.
The real Li Ran descended rapidly toward Meng Hedong.
The distance between them closed quickly.
Bang!
A fire dragon collided with Li Ran face-on.
Li Ran only trembled slightly, clenching her teeth to continue her charge downward.
The next moment.
"Mind-Crafted Illusion!"
Li Ran stood firm before Meng Hedong.
Meng Hedong looked up, meeting Li Ran’s gaze unintentionally.
In an instant, Meng Hedong felt the entire world fade away, leaving only Li Ran’s eyes between heaven and earth.
Those eyes seemed to hold infinite magic.
Just meeting in a glance, his pupils dilated, his gaze becoming dazed as if falling into an illusion realm.
"It’s time to end this."
Li Ran’s face was pale, large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and blood trickled from her lips.
The next moment.
She lifted her hand with difficulty, reaching toward Meng Hedong’s brow.
Suddenly.
"Yes, it’s time to end this."
Meng Hedong, whose face was filled with dazed confusion, suddenly regained clarity in his eyes, reaching out his big hand to grab Li Ran.
"However."
"The one who’s ending is you!"
