The thick walls were pierced by the sword energy as if they were made of paper, and burned by the demonic flames.

The magnificent dome collapsed with a deafening roar, sending up clouds of dust.

The residual force of their battle alone reduced the palace, once a symbol of the Black Dragon's power, to rubble and ruins.

Out of the corner of his eye, Heilong caught a glimpse of the palace below reduced to dust. His heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, the pain almost suffocating him.

It wasn't that he felt sorry for the Martial Tribunal, which had been reduced to ruins, but rather that beneath the palace lay hundreds of martial corpses that he had painstakingly crafted.

If this palace collapses, countless martial corpses will be buried alive or destroyed.

"Damn it!"

Boundless frustration and rage nearly overwhelmed the black dragon's reason.

But he suppressed his almost explosive emotions and spared a sliver of his mind to issue the most urgent order to all the surviving martial corpses through the miasma of neither life nor death.

"Run! Run as far away as possible!"

The moment the order is given.

Amidst the smoke and rubble of the ruins.

Hundreds of figures dressed in uniform black robes, exuding a cold and deathly aura, appeared like ghosts and teleported away in all directions at an astonishing speed.

"Want to go?"

Zi Yan's beautiful eyes turned cold, and a murderous intent flashed in them.

Although these black-robed figures were individually insignificant in her eyes, their numbers were vast and they were clearly under the control of the black dragon; keeping them alive would only cause future trouble.

With a flick of her jade-like hand, dozens of purple lotuses instantly coalesced, ready to shoot towards the black-robed men who were scattering in all directions.

[082] Flying Technique! Heading to the Weaponry Station!

"Don't think about it!"

How could the Black Dragon allow Zi Yan to have her way?

He roared and, disregarding his own defenses, unleashed an unprecedentedly violent sword aura from the Stone Sword.

Like a black, raging torrent, it swept towards Zi Yan, covering the sky and the earth.

Their offensive was so fierce that it was a fight to the death.

Zi Yan frowned slightly, forced to redirect her attack to counter the raging wave of sword energy.

Those dozens of purple lotuses were ultimately a step too slow, and could only watch helplessly as all the black-robed figures disappeared into the night sky over the distant mountains and forests.

"You're asking for it!"

Zi Yan's voice turned completely cold, her killing intent solidified into a tangible form.

The ensuing battles became even more intense and dangerous.

The two moved as fast as two streaks of light high in the sky.

Sword energy crisscrossed and swept across the land, while purple lotuses burned mountains and boiled seas.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides had already exchanged over a hundred blows!

Zi Yan's strength was ultimately a notch above Hei Long's, and her combat experience was also far more seasoned.

Gradually, she completely took control of the rhythm of the battle.

Heilong felt the pressure growing stronger.

The opponent's Purple Lotus appeared and disappeared unpredictably, at tricky angles, and contained purple flames that were scorching and corrosive to the bone.

This forced him to struggle and was left exhausted.

His prized close-combat skills were completely useless; he could only barely block and dodge with his powerful physique.

"Ugh!"

A cunning purple lotus grazed the edge of his fleshy wing and burst open, the scorching demonic flames instantly scorching several scales, sending waves of excruciating pain through him.

Wrong!

I felt incredibly frustrated!

When has the Black Dragon Demon King ever been so suppressed and beaten?

Anger burned fiercely in his chest, threatening to consume his reason.

But he understood that continuing to fight would only make him more and more passive, and he might even perish there.

At this moment, he only had three paths before him.

Continuing to hold on will either lead to being worn down by the opponent or having them find an opening to regain control.

Flee immediately; it may be shameful, but at least you'll survive.

Bowing down and admitting defeat, becoming the enemy's henchman...

However, he had already been marked by the Demon Lord from beyond the heavens, and with his pride, he would never allow himself to bow down to anyone.

"I will remember this humiliation I have suffered today!"

The black dragon violently destroyed an incoming purple lotus, its scaly face twisted in a ferocious grimace, and its demonic eye on its forehead locked onto Zi Yan, unleashing a deafening roar.

"Once I become the Demon Lord, I will tear you to pieces, extract your soul, and refine your spirit. You'd better wash your neck clean and wait!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his demonic energy erupted.

The blinding black light instantly obscured his vision, and the terrifying force shoved him backward violently.

At the same time, the fleshy wings on his back flapped wildly, stirring up violent air currents.

His entire body transformed into a shooting star, flying desperately in the opposite direction from where the martial corpse had fled, at a speed far exceeding his previous speed, without looking back.

Only trails of demonic energy remained, lingering in the night sky for a long time.

Zi Yan frowned slightly and did not chase after him.

She simply hovered silently above the ruined palace, her eerie purple eyes gazing in the direction where the black dragon had disappeared, her gaze deep and cold.

She knew very well that the other party was focused on escaping, and even if she caught up with him, there was no way she could kill him, let alone capture him alive.

Forcibly pursuing and killing them might result in being injured by their dying counterattack, which would be a losing proposition.

Unless we find a helper, there is no chance of capturing that demon called Black Dragon alive.

Naturally, she thought of Lan Tianyu again.

If we can join forces with him to capture and kill the Black Dragon, and force him to reveal the whereabouts and plans of the Heavenly Demon Lord, our chances of success will greatly increase.

only……

Zi Yan sighed, a hint of helplessness flashing across her eyes.

She had no idea where Lan Tianyu was.

In such a vast space and time, how easy is it to find a single person?

The night wind swept by, stirring up dust and smoke from the ruins.

Zi Yan's thoughts returned to reality, and her purple magic wings fluttered gracefully.

Her figure transformed into a faint purple rainbow, silently merging into the deep night sky, flying towards the nameless island from which she had come.

She needs to go back to rest and recuperate, and process the gains and losses of this battle.

We should also think of ways to find Lan Tianyu.

……

Time flies by like a white horse.

Before we knew it, it was the afternoon of the next day.

Lan Tianyu stared intently at the system panel, his eyes unblinking.

[Luck: 99.998%……99.999%……100%]

One minute later.

The progress bar has been completed successfully!

【Ding! 】

Fishing attempts +1

Using fortune as bait, one can fish for all tangible and intangible things, including abilities, items, talents, and destinies, that exist in all the heavens and myriad realms.

[Host, would you like to begin fishing immediately?]

"Yes!"

Without any hesitation, Lan Tianyu chose to go fishing.

The moment the command was given, a sudden change occurred.

The light in the bedroom was suddenly cut off, and absolute darkness engulfed him.

Immediately afterwards, an irresistible, invisible force gently yet domineeringly enveloped him, transporting him to another dimension.

"boom!"

In an instant.

The senses begin to shift.

Beneath my feet lies a boundless sea of ​​stars, where countless brilliant stars rise and fall like grains of sand.

Above, there was the unfathomable void of the universe, its depths seemingly capable of swallowing the soul.

Despite having witnessed this breathtaking scene a few days prior, Lan Tianyu was still somewhat dazed.

Just as Lan Tianyu was wavering, another unexpected event occurred.

A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from his palm.

A fishing rod with an antique design and flowing purple aura appeared out of thin air and landed steadily in his hand.

Without thinking, Lan Tianyu almost instinctively cast his fishing rod.

A golden thread, composed entirely of light, descended from the tip of the pole and silently pierced into the vast galaxy below.

The moment the silk thread disappeared into the Milky Way, ripples spread through the surrounding space, almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

It was as if some invisible bait was attracting the unknown beings deep within the starry sea.

Lan Tianyu held his breath, his gaze fixed on the golden line disappearing into the stars, his heart pounding in his chest.

What can you catch on these six fishing trips?

The thought flashed through my mind in a split second.

Suddenly, the fishing rod in my hand experienced a violent and peculiar tremor.

Lan Tianyu's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Without the slightest hesitation, he moved with perfect coordination between his waist and stance, unleashing astonishing power in his arms as he suddenly lifted the pole upwards.

The golden fishing line instantly taut.

Then, a sphere emitting a soft, pure white light was pulled by the fishing line.

Like a shooting star shooting against the current, it fiercely tore through the dazzling starry sky and flew rapidly toward him.

at the same time.

The system's cold notification sound rang clearly in his ears.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, you have acquired the Flying Technique!]

[Note: After learning this technique, you will be able to perfectly master the art of levitation!]

The moment the words fell, a beam of white light fell from the starry sky before him and settled in Lan Tianyu's palm.

Lan Tianyu looked closely and saw that it was a white, swirling ball of light.

Upon contact, the ball of light transformed into a stream of light and pierced directly into his brow.

In an instant, a vast amount of unfamiliar fragments of memory surged into the depths of his consciousness like a sea.
