Chapter 972 The End of War
The Black Dragon was both ashamed and furious at this moment.
He was a proud True Dragon Descendant, but one day found himself being tossed around like a sandbag.
And not just once.
Yet at this moment, he had no power to resist Xu Nian.
This fellow's power was too strong, as he managed to catch the Black Dragon's tail attack barehanded.
If he guessed correctly, the other's bloodline might be more powerful than his.
Jealousy surged in Black Dragon's heart.
"Die, Xu Nian must die," Black Dragon thought angrily.
He no longer cared about his injuries, and began to forcibly activate the Destroying Immortal Array.
"Uh?"
Xu Nian immediately sensed a wave of apprehension and a threat of death.
Without thinking, Xu Nian directly tossed the Black Dragon away in his hand.
The Destroying Immortal Needle!
Xu Nian had been prepared for this move from the Black Dragon.
Sensing the threat of death, Xu Nian realized that the Black Dragon had reached the peak of his anger and was activating the Destroying Immortal Needle.
"Clang!"
As Xu Nian threw the Black Dragon, the Black Dragon also tossed out a ray of golden light.
This golden light was extremely thin and narrow, only about ten inches long.
Both ends were incredibly sharp.
It looked completely like a golden needle.
Most critically, it emanated a terrifying soul fluctuation.
This soul fluctuation was strong and very concentrated.
Forget the soul of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, even the soul of an Earth Immortal expert might be pierced through.
"Destroying Immortal Needle!"
Watching the golden needle shooting towards his forehead, Xu Nian instantly understood the situation.
But the speed of the needle was too fast and too close.
Trying to dodge at this point was too late.
"Buzz!"
The golden needle pierced through Xu Nian's forehead, entering his Mud Ball Palace.
Inside the Mud Ball Palace, the soul origin of Xu Nian sat cross-legged and suddenly opened its eyes.
Seeing the terrifying golden needle shooting towards him, his eyes were ablaze with sharp light.
"Shatter for me!"
Xu Nian shouted, and a dagger appeared in his hand, stabbing towards the golden needle.
"Clang!"
The golden needle collided with the blade of the dagger, making a crisp sound.
Then, at that moment, the golden needle exploded.
"Boom!"
Xu Nian's soul origin was immediately shaken and his form became ethereal.
"Haha, you're dead, you're dead for sure! Hit by my Destroying Immortal Needle, it's impossible to survive." From a distance, Black Dragon laughed wildly, watching Xu Nian being struck by the needle.
Xu Nian had humiliated him earlier, and now he finally got his vengeance.
How could he not be happy?
From afar, Huo Xian and Wu Guang, who were battling, all turned to look at Xu Nian.
Destroying Immortal Needle?
Black Dragon used the Destroying Immortal Needle against Xu Nian?
Wasn't Xu Nian then...
Huo Xian saw Xu Nian unmoving and furrowed her brows deeply.
Could Xu Nian really be dead?
"Hmph, you were so arrogant before, kid, soon I'll swallow your body and you'll understand..." Black Dragon sneered, but stopped halfway through his words.
His eyes stared fixedly at Xu Nian, "Impossible, how could this be..."
Indeed, at this moment, Xu Nian reopened his eyes. Though his face showed fatigue, he was not dead.
Hit by the Destroying Immortal Needle, yet not dead?
Huo Xian also showed an expression of surprise.
Seeing Black Dragon's shocked face, Xu Nian's mouth curled into a slight smile.
Since he dared to face Black Dragon, he was already prepared to confront the Destroying Immortal Needle.
But stopping the Destroying Immortal Needle by himself was impossible for Xu Nian.
So what to do?
The only solution was to find someone for help.
Hence, Xu Nian turned to the Dao Tian Rat.
Finally, through the Dao Tian Rat's insistence, he obtained a Soul Slaying Dagger.
The Soul Slaying Dagger was also an Immortal Artifact, but given Xu Nian's soul power, it could only be used for soul defense now.
Earlier, Xu Nian managed to block the Destroying Immortal Needle thanks to the dagger's power.
Even so, Xu Nian's soul was still shaken by the soul wave from the Destroying Immortal Needle.
It may take a long time to nurture back to health.
But without the Destroying Immortal Needle, Black Dragon posed no more threat.
"Black Dragon, now that you're out of tricks, it's time to end this battle." Xu Nian, wielding Black Slaughter, charged towards Black Dragon.
His momentum surged, filled with murderous intent.
The Black Dragon's momentum stalled, fear welled up in his eyes.
Indeed, he was truly afraid.
The charging Xu Nian overwhelmed him in both momentum and True Essence fluctuations.
Xu Nian charging forward was like a fierce tiger.
"Escape!"
A thought immediately occurred to Black Dragon.
He was about to turn and flee.
Xu Nian, however, laughed lightly, and suddenly a pair of black wings appeared behind him.
The wings were covered in Scale Armor, incredibly sharp.
When the wings appeared, Xu Nian's speed surged instantly.
"Die!"
Xu Nian shouted, swinging Black Slaughter in his hand.
Instantly, the blade transformed into ninety levels of illusion, slicing across Black Dragon's neck.
"No..."
Black Dragon screamed miserably.
Finally, his head fell to the ground.
The Black Scale Armor on his neck was cut open by Xu Nian, the cut smooth as a mirror.
This slash was Xu Nian's ultimate move.
Ninety levels of illusion meant that Xu Nian's comprehension of Wind Attribute Dimension Cutting Profound Argumentation was nearing Peak of Great Success.
However, the True Essence consumption of this move was enormous.
Xu Nian was somewhat breathless at the moment.
He adjusted his breathing slightly, then grabbed the head on the ground and shouted to the crowd around.
"Stop fighting! Black Dragon is dead, do you still want to continue?" Xu Nian shouted loudly, his voice shaking the whole venue.
The warriors stopped fighting.
Lan Xi also commanded the Insect Clan Warriors to cease their attack.
At this moment, the four thousand warriors had been mostly killed by the Insect Clan Warriors, leaving only a little over a thousand.
While the Insect Clan Warriors had only lost half.
If they continued to fight, the victory would likely be theirs.
The warriors looked at the Black Dragon's head in Xu Nian's hand, each of them dazed.
Eventually, someone dropped their weapon, and everyone around chose to surrender.
Meanwhile, two Earth Immortal experts also ceased fighting.
What was the point of continuing to fight?
"Arrest all of them!"
Wei Feng gave the order.
Then a big batch of captives was escorted into the city.
How they would be dealt with was no concern of Xu Nian.
Lan Xi also moved the Insect Clan Warriors back to the Insect Nest.
This battle had also drained her greatly.
But given time, she could create more Insect Clan Warriors.
"It's finally over," Xu Nian sighed with relief upon seeing this scene.
With a wave of his sleeve, he put the Black Dragon's corpse into the Chaos Divine Palace.
When he meets his true self, the Black Dragon's corpse would be a good resource.
On the other side, the two Earth Immortals also chose to surrender to Black Wind City.
Huo Xian naturally had no objections.
Thus, the battle completely settled.
