"Rumble!!!"
In the battle domain, a terrifying sea of lightning engulfed everything, destroying all living beings.
Many ordinary martial artists who couldn't escape the domain in time were buried here without even knowing what was happening.
But the primary targets of the lightning sea were Gu Qiankun and Li Xiaotian, the two who had violated the rules.
As long as they didn't die, the lightning sea would not recede!
In the center of the lightning sea, Li Xiaotian and Gu Qiankun fought fiercely, blood splashing everywhere.
Even Li Xiaotian's golden body had dimmed considerably by now.
Of course, Gu Qiankun was even more battered, his hands reduced to mere bones with no flesh left.
A small portion of their injuries were inflicted by each other, but the majority were caused by the lightning sea.
Li Xiaotian's eyes flickered, the demonic sword within him stirring restlessly. Gu Qiankun opposite him had gone mad, attacking him relentlessly, seemingly intent on mutual destruction.
Of course, Gu Qiankun had no other choice; he had been driven to madness by Li Xiaotian.
His only thought was to kill Li Xiaotian, disregarding everything else.
In the past, with Gu Qiankun's composure, he might have first focused on survival and then sought revenge.
But now, it was different. He had never hated anyone so much, never wanted to kill anyone so badly.
A millennium of planning, the accumulation of power by the overlord of the Ancient God Tribe, and his own son, all had been destroyed by Li Xiaotian.
With such deep-seated hatred, how could he remain calm?
"Cough, cough, old man, how about we call a truce? Let's focus on survival first."
Li Xiaotian spoke, coughing up blood.
"You're scared?! Hmph! I won't give you what you want. I will live after I kill you!"
Gu Qiankun snorted coldly and charged forward with his saber.
His heart was filled with ice-cold killing intent. Li Xiaotian was starting to compromise, which meant he was afraid and regretting it.
The other party was about to collapse!
How could he miss such an opportunity?
If he killed the other party and took everything from him, he would have the strength to survive.
"Kill!!!"
Gu Qiankun roared, his long saber slashing out once more.
Li Xiaotian, however, retreated rapidly, evading theιθ.
"Old man, if both of us die, what's the point of your revenge? Stop now!"
Li Xiaotian shouted.
His only response was another saber strike from Gu Qiankun, followed by relentless pursuit.
"Hmph! Idiot, your son is dead, I've killed your tribe's overlord, and the reputation of your Ancient God Tribe is ruined. Even if you kill me, can you change any of that? Don't be stubborn!"
Li Xiaotian snorted, his voice filled with anger.
"We are cultivators. Besides ourselves, everything else is external. Surviving is the greatest victory!"
"Seeking death!!!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiankun's eyes turned crimson again. Li Xiaotian's words were undoubtedly provoking him.
However, in his eyes, Li Xiaotian seemed more like a cornered beast, lashing out in anger because he refused to compromise.
This could only mean that the other party was close to his limit!
Thinking of this, a flicker of joy crossed Gu Qiankun's mind. Soon, he would be able to kill the other party!
If he couldn't kill him instantly, he would cripple him first and then let him perish in the lightning sea.
Only in this way could he appease his hatred.
"Boom!"
As Gu Qiankun was lost in thought, he suddenly noticed Li Xiaotian's speed slowing down and immediately threw a punch.
"Bang!"
His fist struck the Dragon King Hall, creating a loud roar. At the same time, Li Xiaotian spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura weakening.
Seeing this, Gu Qiankun's heart filled with excitement. He pursued Li Xiaotian with all his might.
"Old man, if I die, you will die too. It's worth it to have you accompany me in death!"
Li Xiaotian shouted, but his heart was filled with anxiety.
There was only one chance!
Just one chance!
He had to destroy this guy.
Several times in succession, Li Xiaotian deliberately allowed himself to be hit by Gu Qiankun, his aura becoming extremely weak.
Gu Qiankun, on the other hand, grew more and more excited, unleashing his full power and significantly increasing his speed, catching up to Li Xiaotian in an instant.
"Damn it!! How do you still have strength?"
Li Xiaotian's expression changed drastically, a hint of terror flashing in his eyes.
"Hmph! I am the Lord of the Ancient God Tribe, the foremost overlord. My strength is beyond your imagination!"
Gu Qiankun sneered, his long saber humming, and killing intent permeated the entire world.
"To force me to this extent, you should be content!"
"Die!"
Gu Qiankun roared, and his long saber cleaved through the air, a terrifying saber energy shooting directly at Li Xiaotian.
But at this very moment, Li Xiaotian smiled, a hint of mockery and disdain flashing in his eyes.
Seeing this, Gu Qiankun suddenly had a bad feeling. Could it be that the other party still had a trump card?
"Hum!"
His response was a sword light that soared into the sky, causing the entire lightning sea to momentarily freeze.
The black demonic sword, as fast as lightning, returned into Li Xiaotian's body in the blink of an eye.
Gu Qiankun, however, stood frozen, his eyes filled with unwillingness and disbelief.
"This! How is this possible?!"
Gu Qiankun murmured, a small hole appearing in his forehead.
"Hmph, old man, you're lucky to be killed by the Demon Lord's sword!"
Li Xiaotian said with a smile, then immediately sat cross-legged in mid-air, activating his absorption power and frantically devouring the energy of the lightning sea to heal his injuries.
"You!!!"
"I am not reconciled!!!"
"Ahhhhh!!! Why?!"
Gu Qiankun roared, his eyes filled with rage and unwillingness. By now, he understood everything.
But it was too late.
The destructive energy of the demonic sword was continuously shattering his will, and his aura rapidly weakened.
"Kill!!!"
Gu Qiankun let out a final roar, his entire body's aura surging to its peak, and his body was instantly submerged by the lightning sea.
Following this, he fell.
A generation's overlord, the strongest in Manzhou, was dead!
But then, due to Gu Qiankun's final outburst, the power of the lightning sea surged once more.
"Old man, even in death, you don't let people rest easy."
Li Xiaotian cursed, then waved his hand, collecting Gu Qiankun's corpse into the Dragon King Hall, and then retreated inside himself.
"Rumble!!!"
Endless lightning bolts struck the Dragon King Hall, trying to destroy everything.
Li Xiaotian also continued to cough up blood, healing his injuries while controlling the Dragon King Hall to resist the lightning sea.
"As a top-grade heavenly weapon, you must hold on!"
Li Xiaotian prayed. The enemy was all dead; he couldn't die now, or it would be a huge loss.
With a thought, he quickly extracted the Ancient God's Blood from Gu Qiankun's corpse.
Only by increasing his own strength could he have a greater chance of survival.
Streams of destructive energy impacted Li Xiaotian through the Dragon King Hall. Although Li Xiaotian was constantly recovering, the lightning sea's attacks were too fierce.
Moreover, without Gu Qiankun drawing fire now, his situation became even more precarious.
"Brat, what did you do?! Why are you playing so big? Trying to die?"
Just then, the Demon Lord's voice echoed in Li Xiaotian's mind.
He had awakened.
Because he sensed Li Xiaotian's condition, and the destructive energy of the lightning sea also affected him, he had woken up.
"Old fellow, you're finally awake, help me quickly. This is the Manzhou battle domain."
Li Xiaotian said urgently, his heart filled with excitement. With the Demon Lord awake, he had a greater chance of survival.
"Manzhou battle domain? How did you end up here? My heavens, such a vast lightning sea, you've been targeted by the domain's grand formation."
"Brat, what have you been doing all this time?!"
The Demon Lord exclaimed, feeling his mind in a bit of a daze and needing to calm down to sort things out.
"Never mind all that. Do you have a way to help me overcome this tribulation?"
Li Xiaotian shouted, having no time to explain.
