--- Chapter 163 ---
Lily's cultivation soared above the Sovereign Profound Realm, breaking bottlenecks one after another. In terms of cultivation base, she's still losing to Dullahan.
However, her immense amount of profound energy alone could compete with Dullahan, who was 4th level of the Divine Tribulation Realm.
As their immense aura clashed like colliding waves, Dullahan arrived before Lily.
Lily raised her blade of grass and slashed the air.
Creak!
The screeching sounds come from Dullahan's spear as Lily's weapon successfully parried it.
[Yang Dragon Bulwark - Radiance]
A bright light suddenly appeared, covering the blade of grass with a golden sheen.
"Not good!" Dullahan was astonished.
"Too late!" Lily ignited her [Yang Dragon's Bloodline] and called for a holy flame. A golden flame burst forth, engulfing Dullahan's whole body.
Dullahan felt the intense heat and screamed in agony because the Yang or Light Attribute was his weakness. He is, after all, a death knight.
Lily calculated the distance between her and Dullahan, "About six meters..."
"Let's start."
[Yang Dragon Bulwark - Dragon's Blight]
Lily stepped forward with illusory steps as her figure split into countless copies. However, unlike the previous technique, these clones seemingly possessed frightening strength.
Dullahan's body twitched from the sheer pressure because the clones summoned these golden halos that pointed at him. Each halo contained an intense blitz of holy flame.
"Curse you-!" Dullahan knew he couldn't dodge. Even if he used Spatial Shift, it would be too late.
DING! BOOOOOOOM!!
Intense light beams concentrated into one spot, creating a golden sphere in the dark sky. For a moment, the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range experienced daylight again.
As Lily's attack died down, Dullahan's damaged appearance was 'slowly' revealed. His shadowy armor has burnt off by the light attribute, exposing a gray-colored skin tone and a hollow chest.
Surprisingly, Dullahan was somehow lean behind all those armor pieces.
Dullahan grumbled at the piece of his armor that turned into dust and swept by the night's breeze. He is furious now.
"You tarnished bitch..." Dullahan gazed at Lily coldly. His way of speaking also became more colorful.
"Woah, you kiss your mother with that mouth?" Lily sneered in response.
"I will fucking kill you!"
Dullahan sped up to Lily's position and created all kinds of weapons by conjuring darkness. He also wielded a morning star in his right hand and claymore on the other.
Dullahan's attack was about to reach Lily's face when a slender but scorching scale-covered arm grabbed the dark storm.
"Huh?" The Death Knight couldn't comprehend the sight before him.
It was none other than the red-haired woman who caught him off guard earlier with her domain ability.
However, her appearance has drastically changed.
Hong Guan is standing over 190 cm with fine green-purple dragon scales all over her body and bat-like wings on the back. Her long red hair has become longer and gained a dark tint. Her body looks no different than a humanoid dragon.
However, the most noticeable change is her face.
Half of Hong Guan's face was 'thinly' covered by this bone-scales mask that clung to her skin. On the mask's eye socket, an intense purple flame burned brightly. The other eye bleeds out, creating a tear-like crack on her fair skin.
"H-Hong Guan?" Lily was a bit afraid.
"Leave." Hong Guan glanced at Lily briefly before returning her gaze to the headless Death Knight.
"Are you sure?" Even though Lily's strength enhancement has gone, she can offset Dullahan's attack a few more times.
Hong Guan didn't reply and released a unique draconic pressure that blew the surrounding crack and tears in spatial fabric to expand even more.
"Okay, okay, chill." Lily stomped the air and left with the area, returning to Freya's side. The new Fairy Queen looked at Lily like she was an alien while she was a Hybrid Kaiju herself.
Freya worriedly stared at Hong Guan and asked, "Is it okay to leave her alone? Dullahan is strong, extremely strong compared to what I know."
"She's going to be fine." Lily crossed her arms and pouted.
"I've never seen her so mad before."
"The last time Hong Guan was in such a state was when we wiped a sect to avenge her brother." After saying this, Lily shivered because the sight of the fiery Hong Guan surrounded by burned mountains and buildings was unforgettable.
Hong Guan crushed Dullahan's attack and moved.
Dullahan stepped back instinctively because he felt a dangerous presence from Hong Guan.
"Headless Knight's Code: Abyssal Sword." Dullahan opened another portal, allowing a massive sword to poke out from it.
Watching the massive sword descend from the portal, Hong Guan stretched her hand and balled it into a fist.
If Dullahan had a head, the following event would have made his jaws drop.
A purple flame combusted and surrounded the portal. It condensed rapidly to Hong Guan's clenching her fist, breaking the portal apart.
"Y-You... What are you?" Dullahan was speechless and terrified.
"Shadow... Bride." Hong Guan's cultivation soared under the very gaze of Dullahan. From the peak of the Sovereign Profound Realm to the early stage of Divine Soul Realm.
She jumped a whole 'major' realm into the second stage of Seven Divine Ways.
[Abyssal Storm Dragon's Tactic - First Layer: Dragon's Rise]
The might of Ancient Dragon overwhelmed the half-destroyed Heavenly Sword Mountain Range and the spatial fabric, sealing Dullahan's path from running away.
'Impossible!' Dullahan grimaced inside.
