Chapter 288: Using Stones From Other Mountains to Polish Jade

Zhao Heng, who was trapped in a cage by Emperor Hao Yuan, was shocked. He planned to show his trump card and break free from the cage regardless of being exposed.

But he didn't expect that Emperor Hao Yuan would sacrifice a ball of light blue flame to refine it.

Before Zhao Heng could make a move, the bronze fragment in the storage ring suddenly felt a strong induction.

Zhao Heng sacrificed the bronze fragment, and the green light instantly spread all over his body. The blazing flames burned his whole body, but he only felt a warm feeling spreading.

The energy in the flame was absorbed by the bronze fragment suspended above his head.

Zhao Heng followed the copper piece to sense the breath in the flame, and indeed sensed a powerful flame essence.

This energy was much stronger than the "Blue Flame Spirit Fire" that Zhao Heng had absorbed from the Blood Evil Spirit Guard before.

In particular, the pure and thick innate energy contained in it was not comparable to ordinary fire. Only the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Fire condensed by the essence of heaven and earth had such power.

Unfortunately, the energy of this Heaven and Earth Mysterious Fire was not pure, and it was mixed with many miscellaneous energies. The true origin of the Mysterious Fire was extremely rare.

Even so, Zhao Heng still unceremoniously absorbed the essence of the Mysterious Fire with the bronze fragments.

Now he was getting closer and closer to the "Silver Mysterious Body" of the Burning Heaven and Ten Thousand Tribulations Body. These Mysterious Fire powers were rare and precious energies, so he naturally had to pack them up and take them away.

Not only that, when the bronze fragments absorbed the power of the Mysterious Fire, in addition to the pure Heaven and Earth Power, other miscellaneous energies were naturally filtered out.

Zhao Heng took the opportunity to absorb a large amount of pure innate energy contained in the Mysterious Fire.

The innate energy tempered by the Mysterious Fire was pure and thick, and the effect was even more amazing than taking elixirs for cultivation.

Like "the last straw that broke the camel's back", he felt that a certain level on his road to cultivation was slowly loosening...

Zhao Heng was overjoyed and accelerated the operation of the exercises, while observing the battle outside with his spiritual consciousness.

At this time, the battle between Qi Hongyuan and Emperor Hao Yuan had reached a fever pitch.

Emperor Hao Yuan obviously had no intention of letting Qi Hongyuan go. Blood was surging all over his body, and the national defense sword in his hand emitted dragon roars and slashed out shocking sword rays.

Qi Hongyuan also went all out, burning the power of the talisman to the limit. The giant body covered with stone armor moved freely, and the two swords turned into phantoms, slashing at Emperor Hao Yuan frantically.

The momentum of the two soared all the way, and the battle became more and more intense.

But the bright runes covering Qi Hongyuan's body began to crack, which was a sign that the power of the talisman was about to be exhausted!

Zhao Heng, who observed all this, felt a sinking heart, but he stabilized his mind, accelerated the circulation of energy in his body, and prepared to attack the "pass" that had blocked him for a long time.

Time passed by every second...

In the battle, Emperor Hao Yuan and Qi Hongyuan did not notice that the flames on the surface of the colorful cage were getting thinner and thinner, and the energy inside the flames was constantly accumulating and rising.

"Hehe... your talisman power is about to run out, you can't hold on!"

Emperor Hao Yuan looked at the runes on Qi Hongyuan's body, and there was a playful and cruel light in his eyes.

Qi Hongyuan glanced at the runes on his body, his eyes were firm and resolute.

"Hmph, as long as I kill you first, it doesn't matter whether I have the power of talismans or not."

"Hmm...?"

Emperor Hao Yuan was stunned.

Seeing Qi Hongyuan's eyes flashing, the two swords in his hands closed, the two swords actually attracted each other and merged into one.

Then, Qi Hongyuan made a weird sword-drawing posture.

The vast mysterious energy around him, the power of heaven and earth, and even the runes on his body that were on the verge of collapse, gathered on the blade like a tide.

A blast of sword energy spread out, breaking through the air for hundreds of feet, and forced Emperor Hao Yuan to retreat.

Feeling the terrifying energy accumulated on the opponent's blade, Emperor Hao Yuan knew that this was a desperate blow from the opponent with all his strength.

His eyes became solemn, and the national defense sword in his hand vibrated.

Emperor Hao Yuan also held the sword with both hands, and the majestic mysterious energy in his body surged to the sword body.

The blood-colored sword blade vibrated more and more, and the nine blood dragons on the sword body seemed to wake up, turning into nine blood-colored dragon shadows, surrounding the magic sword, and condensing unparalleled sword energy!

One sword and one sword, madly accumulating power between heaven and earth.

The momentum of the two people reached the peak almost at the same time, and then they attacked brazenly.

"Shua...!"

"Ang...!"

The giant swung the sword, as if opening up the world, and slashed at the sword light surrounded by nine dragons and blood-soaring into the sky.

The moment the two collided, the air twisted, and burst into energy ripples, shattering the stones on the surface of the earth into powder.

"Boom...!"

With a loud noise, the two figures flew back at the same time.

Among them, Emperor Hao Yuan slid back dozens of feet and staggered to stabilize his body.

He was bloody and pale, with a deep knife wound on his chest, blood spurting out...

Qi Hongyuan, on the other side, flew backwards like a cannonball, plowing a long ditch in the ground and smashing a stone tablet under the Zhaixing Tower.

"Puff...!"

Qi Hongyuan spurted blood, his body was covered with hideous sword wounds, his body was twisted, and he didn't know how many bones were broken. His breath was extremely weak, and he had suffered a serious injury and was unable to fight again!

Although Emperor Hao Yuan was also seriously injured, he obviously still had some strength left, and the outcome was decided.

At this time, Emperor Hao Yuan lowered his head, looked at the injury on his chest, and frowned.

The seven-color rays of light in the void gathered and filled the wound, temporarily stopping the blood from overflowing.

He looked at Qi Hongyuan with cold eyes.

"Humph, you dare to hurt my body, wait until I kill you, and then I will destroy your companions!"

Emperor Hao Yuan raised the National Defense Sword indifferently, and the sharp sword light condensed again.

Qi Hongyuan collapsed to the ground, feeling the threat to his life, he was unwilling to give up, and still wanted to struggle.

But the tingling all over his body and the empty Dantian made him give up. He no longer had the strength to resist and could only accept his fate.

"Is my martial arts path going to end here?"

Qi Hongyuan couldn't help but think of the original gathering of heroes, the night banquet, and the humiliation that man brought to him.

He also wanted to wait until he broke through the great perfection of the heavenly realm and fought a fair battle with the other party, not for others, but for his own dignity.

But now, he is about to fall in the palace of the Yunfeng Dynasty.

With a sigh, Qi Hongyuan took his last breath and raised the blade in his hand without energy.

As a warrior, even if he dies, as long as he is still alive, he cannot surrender. This is his martial arts!

Seeing this, Emperor Hao Yuan showed a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Shua...!"

He swung his arm, and a blood-red blade gleamed out, aiming for Qi Hongyuan's head.

This was a sure-kill blow!

However, just when this blood-red blade gleam was only a few feet away from Qi Hongyuan.

Qi Hongyuan, who had originally looked determined, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

"Boom...!"

The next moment, the blood-red sword gleam cut a deep ditch in the earth, but Qi Hongyuan's body was nowhere to be seen.

"Hmm...?"

Emperor Hao Yuan's face changed, and his eyes swept across the world, suddenly locking onto a figure across the square, his pupils suddenly contracted!

I saw a heroic man in white clothes, with slightly frosted temples and a sword box on his body.

He dragged a blood-stained Qi Hongyuan in his hands and appeared silently on one side of the square.

"You...you are not dead!"

Emperor Hao Yuan looked at the edge of the square in surprise, and saw a seven-colored cage with a huge gap.

"How did you escape? No, where is my Xuanhuo?"

Faced with a series of questions from Emperor Haoyuan, Zhao Heng shook his head.

"Don't ask, a dead person doesn't need to know so much."
