X-Dragon Era

Under the watchful gaze of the audience, the bodies of the eight Giant Dragons were pierced through in an instant, riddled with a thousand wounds. Streams of golden swords shot through their forms, drawing out crimson bloodlines that streaked explosively behind them.

Faced with opponents that had already crumbled, Po Kong showed no sign of stopping. Emperor Sword Dragon continued its onslaught, and under the relentless assault, when Po Kong finally ceased, the eight Giant Dragons were ultimately freed. However... at this point, no one could discern they had ever been dragons.

In midair, eight blurred masses of blood and flesh began to fall with a hopeless thud. The wind in the sky was strong, and just a dozen meters into their descent, the eight Giant Dragons were torn apart by the gusts. By the time they had fallen another hundred meters, they scattered into a haze of blood mist mixed with fragments of flesh and bones.

Finally, as the wreckage plummeted over a thousand meters and neared the ground, it transformed into eight immense clouds of red mist, like rain showering the grasslands and forests below.

Simultaneously, Po Kong soared into the air, standing atop the Emperor Sword Dragon as its blade was turned and placed horizontally in midair. Using the sword as a foothold, Po Kong launched forward without hesitation, heading straight toward the mountains below.

From start to finish, the entire battle lasted only a dozen seconds. The fight began abruptly, but ended even faster. Essentially... from the moment Po Kong initiated the attack, everyone could only stand by and watch. Until the complete annihilation, the eight adversaries hadn't managed a single notable counterattack.

As Po Kong approached, Xin Yun and Luo Fu both smiled simultaneously. Having such a powerful ally was truly a joy beyond description. When so many formidable comrades gathered together, the force they could muster was unimaginable to ordinary people!

Po Kong was strong, but not invincible. Luo Fu was no weakling either. Once he transformed into the Blood Shadow Clone and unleashed the Demonic Dragon Disintegration Technique through it, the resulting explosion of power would be unimaginably terrifying. Even if he couldn't defeat Po Kong, he would certainly not lose to them either.

As for Xin Yun, need one say more? By this time, armed with immensely powerful treasures, Xin Yun had surpassed anyone currently alive and was unbeatable. Without doing anything else, Xin Yun could simply brandish the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag above his head and establish himself in an invincible position. Aside from Saints, no one could breach the flag's defense, and clearly… this world had no Saints for the time being!

Since defense was no longer an issue, it was time to focus on offense. And when it came to offense, that was Xin Yun's forte. The Thunderbolt Mace, a fusion of the Thunderbolt Drill and Purple Lightning Hammer, had reached its pinnacle in destructive power. Its obliteration capabilities had definitively reached the level of an Innate Supreme Treasure, rivaling the power of the Zhu Xian Four Swords when combined. However... despite its overwhelming strength, it wasn't an Innate Supreme Treasure, and it should be remembered that the value of Innate Supreme Treasures isn't measured merely by their offense and destruction.

Take the Treasure Pagoda as an example—its defensive capacity surpassed even the strength of Innate Supreme Treasures, yet it still wasn't classified as one. In a sense, the Thunderbolt Mace was like the offensive counterpart of the Treasure Pagoda. Its power exceeded some Supreme Treasures, but it still fundamentally fell short of the realms of Innate Supreme Treasures.

After successfully retrieving the Diamond Fruit, Xin Yun and the others didn't linger. They rushed back to headquarters, having secured spots in the top three of the realm's Diamond Tournament. Now the question was, who should use the Diamond Fruit?

As they gazed at the Diamond Fruit on the table, the eyes of Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan brightened. Previously, their realms hadn't been high enough, so they let others take the lead. But now, all three had reached Diamond Six Star, making them eligible to use the fruit. As such, the matter of prioritization had to be carefully considered.

After a prolonged silence, Yi Luo Xiang smiled and said: "I'll wait for now. My newly acquired Puppet Dragon is still too low in rank, and my Sword Array remains incomplete. This time, I'll let them take the opportunity."

Hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, Xin Yun smiled and nodded: "Hmm... actually, this so-called order doesn't really matter. As long as we secure the top six positions, everything else is irrelevant. Who goes first and who goes last is all the same."

Upon hearing Xin Yun's sentiment, Ming Xuan smiled and said: "Indeed... that's correct. Ultimately, true power decides everything. Empty renown only breeds vanity and holds no other meaning. So... this time, I'll pass too. I'm more concerned about mastering my Five-Colored Divine Light. Once perfected, there's nothing more I could desire."

Shooting Ming Xuan an envious look, everyone in the hall silently nodded in agreement. After all... Ming Xuan was enviable to the extreme. The Five-Colored Divine Light was nearly omnipotent; once mastered, even treasures would become unnecessary.

This Five-Colored Divine Light could be used for offense, defense, or even treasure capture. Most notably, its ability to seize artifacts made Ming Xuan a natural nemesis of magical weapons. It must be understood... when trained to its peak, the Five-Colored Divine Light could claim treasures even from Saints. Speaking strictly of this treasure-capturing effect, it was akin to unparalleled fortune—far surpassing tools like the Vajra Bracelet.

No matter which treasure was summoned, one sweep from the Divine Light rendered it invisible, even for a Saint. Furthermore, the most astounding part was that the light didn't only claim artifacts—it seemed capable of sweeping everything away, even living beings. It was incomparably formidable.
