Nightmare Light

Chapter 184 Lin Wang's Defeat
Snapped.

The old woman's hand gently rested on Shi Xionglue's chest.

The movements were gentle, just like the way an elder would comfort a younger person.

However, the next second, a shockwave erupted, creating an astonishing explosion.

The shockwave traveled more than ten meters, blasting and shattering the surrounding skeletons.

boom!
In the massive shockwave of the explosion, Shi Xiong was suddenly thrown backward, metal fragments from his armor and blood flying through the air.

The burly figure, under the influence of the energy shockwave, blasted a trench a meter or two deep into the ground.

Amidst the explosions, the trench stretched straight out and extended into the distance, lasting for nearly a kilometer before stopping.

That fierce man who could easily wipe out an entire Crusader army, easily defeat any temple bishop, and dare to venture alone into the underworld to fight a powerful being who seemed to be an evil god.

With a light touch from the old woman, he was sent flying nearly a kilometer away, plunging headfirst into the earth, his fate unknown.

In that instant, things happened so suddenly, so unexpectedly, that even the night wanderers in mid-air stopped flying and stared blankly at the scene on the ground.

Even Lin Wang and Huang Quan Gong briefly stopped fighting and stared at this side, somewhat stunned.

"It's still a bit of a waste. Half the strength would have been enough to kill him." The old woman looked at her hands, her tone somewhat dissatisfied.

She changed the subject: "However, it's all worth it to let these people pay off their mother's debts."

After finishing his sentence, Vice-Bishop Zhao turned around and walked towards Lin Wang: "Next, it's time to collect this Northerner's debt... Hmm?"

She had only taken a few steps when she suddenly stopped.

The old woman turned her head, frowning in confusion as she looked towards the end of the trench where the shockwave had reached.

"He's not dead yet?"

She took a breath, looking somewhat agitated, and slammed her cane on the ground a few times.

She glanced again at Lin Wang, who was fighting Huang Quan Gong, and saw that Lin Wang was being forced to retreat step by step by Huang Quan Gong. She nodded.

"Let's deal with this ancient priest first."

After saying that, she walked into the trench and headed towards its end.

……

Meanwhile, the battle between Lin Wang and Huang Quan Gong has reached a critical moment.

Although Lin Wang summoned many enormous figures, whose height alone was comparable to that of Huang Quan Gong, together with his own body, they created a situation where he outnumbered the enemy.

However, in terms of strength, Lin Wang is at the "strong" level of a mortal, while Huang Quan Gong is at the "gong" level of an immortal. The gap between them is enormous...

"Insects! In my eyes, you are no different from those skeletons on the ground!"

Even if you know some cunning tricks, they cannot shorten the distance between you and this immortal!

Huang Quan Gong swung his oar, smashing the surrounding coffin-carrying remains, and then swung the oar at Lin Wang.

As He struck at Lin Wang, He simultaneously summoned a wave of bone powder that enveloped Lin Wang's body.

These waves of bone meal blocked Lin Wang's path to dodge, and he only had time to summon a few ice shields to block the anchor.

The ice shield shattered instantly, and the oar struck Lin Wang, sending him flying backward.

"See? You ant! Even if you obtain the power of my Lord, you cannot change this fact—before absolute power, even the gift of a true god is meaningless!"

"I am the strongest being in the Underworld! And you, you are nothing but a giant ant!"

The white fire giant got up from the ground and made a gesture of wiping blood from the corner of its mouth. Lin Wang's voice came from inside the white fire giant.

"You've gone on and on, but you still haven't explained one thing clearly—" The white fire giant spread his arms and scooped up bone dust from the ground, "Since you're so much stronger than me, why haven't you killed me yet?"

If anyone could see the White Fire Giant's eyes at this moment, they would see that those deep, pool-like eyes remained calm and bright even after suffering such a massive attack, as if none of the attacks had struck him.

As they spoke, a set of bone sword and shield had already materialized in Lin Wang's hands. Holding the sword and shield, he lunged at Huang Quan Gong.

Huang Quan Gong raised his left index finger, forming a "Lin" hand seal, and pointed in the direction of Lin Wang.

A long, bony, skeletal boat took shape in the vortex of bone dust and hurtled toward Lin Wang.

Lin Wang raised his left-hand bone shield and blocked in front of him.

The bone ship crashed into the shield and instantly shattered into dust.

The white fire giant strode forward amidst the swirling dust, thrusting its sword forcefully towards Huang Quan Gong's abdomen, the point where his upper and lower limbs connected.

click!
The sword struck the joint of Huang Quan Gong's spine squarely.

Then, Huang Quan Gong was completely unharmed.

"Insects! My immortal body is the strongest in the Styx River! Your attacks have no effect on me!"

He struck Lin Wang with his oar, sending him flying.

"I will give you a way out! Surrender now and hand over my master's power! I can forge a skeletal body for you and allow you to serve as my guard!"

The response to Him was a heavy punch from Lin Wang—the white fire giant condensed several tons of thick ice on his fist and slammed it into Huang Quan Gong's spine—the same spot where the longsword had previously stabbed.

The ice block shattered into pieces, but Huang Quan Gong remained unharmed.

"Ants! Meaningless! Meaningless!"

boom!
Lin Wang was sent flying backwards again.

This time, even his white flame form began to become unstable, the white flame flickered, and his giant form began to shrink.

"Ant! You are going to die!"

"Give me your power! Do not let the power of my lord vanish with you! It is the power of a great king!"

boom!
A chunk of ice flew from a distance, like a cannonball, and struck the remains of the Yellow Springs Lord—in the same spot.

"You're going to provoke me!"

boom!
Boom boom!

Lin Wang remained calm and continued his attack.

No matter how ferocious and ruthless Huang Quan Gong's attacks were, or how powerful the attacks he suffered, he remained unaffected.

Throughout the entire process, Lin Wang remained silent, maintaining the frequency of his attacks.

boom!
The oar struck Lin Wang, sending him flying backward once more.

Lin Wang spat out another mouthful of blood.

His white flame form was less than fifteen meters tall—although it still looked extremely tall, it was actually only half the height of Huang Quan Gong.

"Insect! You were the same height as me and you were no match for me. Now you are only half my height! How can you possibly fight me!"

Huang Quan Gong originally thought that Lin Wang would continue to attack silently without saying a word, just like before.

However, this time, Lin Wang spoke up.

After Huang Quan Gong finished speaking, he heard Lin Wang suddenly speak, his tone carrying a strange smile.

“You’re overlooking something—I’m only half your height now. One reason is that I’m seriously injured and can’t maintain my height.”

"But on the other hand... could it be that I did this on purpose, to make it easier to attack your weaknesses?"

Mr. Huang Quan was stunned.

The next second, He saw Lin Wang pull out a four- or five-meter-long dead tree branch from somewhere.
