The path to immortality through martial arts begins with being forced into marriage!

These words were extremely impolite, immediately drawing angry glares from several rogue cultivators.

But intimidated by the Dragon Phoenix Sect's reputation, they dared not speak out against their anger.

Xiong Lie also seemed to disapprove of the Dragon Phoenix Sect's behavior. He carried his giant sword to the barrier, took a deep breath, and his crimson true energy surged instantly. He then slashed the barrier fiercely with his giant sword, which was wrapped in raging flames!

boom!

The surface of the barrier rippled violently, as a large section of it had been cleaved in by the blade, and the ripples spread wildly!

But after a few breaths, the barrier slowly recovered!

On the contrary, Xiong Lie was pushed back three steps by the powerful recoil, his face turning slightly pale.

Zhong Han's expression also turned serious. Although he and Xiong Lie did not get along, he knew that Xiong Lie's strength was no less than his own.

Even his near-full-force attack couldn't shake the barrier in the slightest, so there was no point in continuing to drag it out.

Thinking of this, Zhong Han stopped being arrogant and gestured for his two fellow disciples to step back. He then made a grabbing motion in the air, and a silver rune the size of a fist condensed at his fingertips.

"A barrier-breaking talisman?!"

"The Dragon Phoenix Sect is incredibly generous; even a single disciple possesses such a secret treasure!"

A knowledgeable rogue cultivator gasped, his gaze towards the silver rune becoming incredibly fervent.

With a flick of his finger, Zhong Han imprinted the silver rune as precisely as a shooting star onto the spot where Xiong Lie had just slashed.

With a soft pop, the silver runes disappeared into the barrier. In just a moment, the surface of the barrier immediately shone with silver light!

The point hit by the light was rapidly melting and dissolving, forming a hole the size of a fist!

Furthermore, the edges of this cavity are slowly but steadily expanding outward under the erosion of the silver light!

Become!

Cui Yi's eyes narrowed. He had been hiding at the very back, but that didn't mean he wasn't interested in what was in the Fallen Soul Abyss!

Even if you don't have the chance, it's still worth it to feast your eyes!

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, their eyes glued to the expanding hole.

Some eager cultivators couldn't wait to use their divine sense to probe inside.

The moment the barrier was breached, creating a gap the size of a bowl, an indescribable, terrifying pressure surged out from that small opening!

thump!

thump!

Several weaker Qi Refining stage cultivators immediately turned pale, their knees buckled, and they collapsed to the ground, drenched in cold sweat, struggling to breathe.

Xiong Lie and the other disciples of the Dragon Phoenix Sect were also shaken violently and retreated repeatedly. They barely managed to stand up after circulating all their true energy, and their faces were full of horror.

"The oppressive aura of a Golden Core stage demon!"

Xiong Lie's voice was hoarse, the veins on his hand gripping the giant sword bulged, and his eyes were filled with disbelief and fear.

Zhong Han's expression also changed drastically, and his fingers, which were controlling the barrier-breaking talisman, trembled slightly.

He never expected that what was hidden at the bottom of the Fallen Soul Ravine was actually a powerful demonic beast at the Golden Core stage!

They could never afford to provoke someone of this caliber!

Just as everyone was so overwhelmed by the sudden pressure of the Golden Core that they almost fled for their lives, the terrifying pressure suddenly subsided!

The remaining pressure was still strong, but it clearly revealed a weakness that was outwardly strong but inwardly weak!

The scene deep at the bottom of the ravine finally came into view.

The next moment, everyone's attention was drawn to something coiled in the center of the dragon's body.

It was an egg.

A giant egg with naturally mysterious cloud patterns on its surface, its entire body is dark gold.

At this moment, the giant egg lay quietly in the very center of the circle formed by the dragon's body.

The eggshell shimmered with light, greedily absorbing the faint spiritual light emanating from the dragon and the essence of heaven and earth seeping in from the gap in the barrier.

The despairing fear receded like the tide, replaced by an uncontrollable greed!

They would naturally run as far away as possible from a golden-core dragon in its prime.

But a golden core dragon that is seriously injured and on the verge of death, whose aura has weakened to the point that it is difficult to maintain its pressure, and an unhatched dragon egg, is a peerless opportunity that is enough to drive any cultivator, even the top sect disciples, crazy!

A demon beast at the Golden Core Realm is a treasure trove, let alone the most noble dragon among demon beasts!

If the dragon egg can be successfully hatched and tamed, it will become a powerful spirit pet or guardian beast with unlimited potential in the future!

Its value is immeasurable!

"Strike while the iron is hot! Seize the opportunity and kill it!"

"The dragon egg is mine!"

"Bullshit! Whoever gets it does so based on their own ability!"

After a brief silence, someone suddenly roared out, and that one roar cleverly broke the balance!

In an instant, dozens of figures could no longer contain themselves and shot out from all directions. Even the usually arrogant Zhong Han disregarded his image and rushed forward, afraid that if he was a step too slow, the heaven-shaking fortune would fall into the hands of others!

The cultivation level of the Golden Core Realm is unattainable, but the dragon had too much of its life essence absorbed by the dragon egg when it laid the egg, and it is now on the verge of death!

Aside from the terrifying pressure surrounding him, he couldn't even muster the slightest bit of power!

However, the dragon was only at the Golden Core stage, and the first wave of true energy collision was completely absorbed by the scales attached to its surface!

Before the two rogue cultivators at the forefront could even scream, they were struck head-on by the dragon's tail, instantly exploding into two clouds of blood mist, along with the shattered fragments of their magical artifacts, and dissipating into the air!

The others were horrified and retreated hastily. Zhong Han, Xiong Lie, and the others instantly activated their protective magic treasures, and various colored light shields lit up. They barely managed to stabilize themselves amidst the terrifying shockwaves and rubble stirred up by the dragon's tail, but their blood was churning and their faces were pale.

If not for the protection of magical treasures, even if he didn't die, he would definitely suffer severe injuries such as broken bones and torn tendons!

"Xiong Lie!"

Zhong Han steadied himself, wiped away the trace of blood that had been shaken from the corner of his mouth, and his greed intensified.

"This beast is at its last gasp, but its physical body is still formidable! Let's join forces, strike its vitals first, and after we're done, we'll split the dragon materials and the dragon egg fifty-fifty!"

Xiong Lie's eyes flickered. Although he despised Zhong Han's behavior, he also knew that it would be difficult for him or any other party to take down the seriously injured dragon under the watchful eyes of others.

After unleashing that earth-shattering tail strike, the already dim light in the dragon's eyes diminished even more rapidly, and the undulations of its massive body became increasingly weak, as if this attack had exhausted its last bit of strength, leaving it on the verge of exhaustion.

The two men's auras suddenly surged to their peak, and two powerful spiritual energies, one silver and one red, converged.

"roar!!!"

A deafening dragon roar resounded!

Immediately, the single horn on the dragon's forehead burst forth with a blindingly bright white light!

The light was so intense that it seemed to incinerate itself and everything around it!

A small, golden, pill-shaped ball suddenly appeared from between the dragon's eyebrows!

The moment they saw the small ball, all the cultivators present changed their expressions and wished they could leave the Fallen Soul Abyss immediately!

"Damn it! This dragon is about to self-destruct its golden core!"
