Chapter 1034: Duel to the Death

Chapter 1034: Chapter 1034: Duel to the Death

He was very clear that, given the current situation, it seemed the Luo Family elders, Luo Cheng and the Meng Family, had no intention of making a move. Luo Xin, although eager to fight, had reluctantly compromised in the end, subdued by several glances from Luo Cheng.

However, the Taoist was keenly aware that if he didn’t resolve the situation with you and Zhen Qi today, he and the Third Prince might not be able to leave the Luo Mansion alive!

"Immeasurable Sword!"

The Taoist revealed his treasured sword, entangling in battle with you under the protection of a yellow light. The Taoist was not only proficient in Taoist spells; his swordsmanship was also first-rate. You had no weapon and quickly fell at a disadvantage after a few exchanges.

"Catch this!"

Just as you were in deep despair, a streak of blue light flashed from the crowd. It felt familiar to your ears, and on instinct, you reached out and grasped it, only to find it was the sword of the handsome Senior Brother Lin Zhongxin, whom you had previously bloodied with your fists.

You discovered that it was Ma Linghan who had aided you from among the crowd.

"Clang!" Since the handsome Senior Brother Lin Zhongxin had died, his sword had become an ownerless object. Although it had lost much of its spirit, it was, after all, a weapon capable of contending with the Taoist’s treasured sword. However, it felt very awkward in your hands, and you inadvertently suffered an injury from the Taoist.

"Taoist Priest, hurry up and subdue the tree demon, don’t get entangled with Luo Yun!" The Third Prince’s main target was Zhen Qi. Although Zhen Qi had already been bound by the Taoist, it was worrisome she might seize the opportunity to escape. If Zhen Qi managed to flee, it would be extremely difficult for them to find her again.

The Taoist nodded, leaped out of the fray, and cast several immobilization spells at you. You were completely unable to avoid them and were hit by two spells in quick succession, frozen in place, unable to move. Meanwhile, the Taoist prepared to subdue Zhen Nan with a magic artifact resembling a bell.

"Roar!"

You roared in anger, but your own strength was truly limited, totally unable to break free from your shackles!

At this moment, the inner turmoil in your heart was beyond words. You darkly considered how, despite your arduous cultivation, you still ended up so weak.

Your once-prideful speed and strength were powerless in the face of the many talismans and magic weapons wielded by the Taoist. Were you really going to have to watch helplessly as Zhen Nan was taken away by the enemy?

No!

You couldn’t just watch your woman being taken away by someone else, fully aware of the dire fate she would face if abducted!

Rage!

And towering hatred!

They caused you to lose all reason. In that instant, you only thought of killing them by any means necessary.

Yet, you could only watch helplessly as the Taoist continually intensified the power of his talismans, as Zhen Qi’s expression grew more and more pained, and as the skin on her hands began to show abnormal changes. She was looking at you with pleading eyes right now.

No!

Even if it meant death, you could not let them succeed!

At that moment, you sensed the world before your eyes suddenly change, while in your mind a vague, ethereal voice echoed as if it were close by. That voice was like a series of talismans, binding your body tightly, yet in a blink of an eye, those bonds abruptly vanished.

After the voice disappeared, it was noticed that your red pupils suddenly changed, returning to their original black. But eerily, those black pupils rapidly dilated, and soon your entire eyes turned black.

In an instant, a voice that seemed to roam the heavens came forth from your mouth: "Dumen, Activate!"

Once the Death Gate was opened, you completely transformed. Your surroundings instantly fell silent as if subdued.

Then, like a stone dropped onto a still lake, a strange energy rippled outward in all directions.

The Taoist, as if sensing something, hurriedly took out several spirit talismans and threw them at you.

You glared at the Taoist and spoke again, "Activate Gate, Lin! Resting Gate, Lin! Shocking Gate, Lin!"

All three doors descended at once, your aura as scorchingly intense as the midday sun in summer, the spirit talismans cast by the Taoist were incinerated before they could reach you.

At this moment, you had finally opened the "real gates of the Eight Gates of Heaven," and you had also come to understand the true power of the "Eight Gates of Heaven."

Once the Dumen was opened, there was no return!

This Death Gate was different from the one you opened in the Heavenless Hell.

As you activated the Dumen, the true meaning of the gate emerged in your mind.

The so-called Dumen, entirely distinct from the other seven gates.

The existence of Dumen was equivalent to cheating.

In the Dumen, "Activate, Rest, Shock, Jing, Sheng, Injury, Du, Death" were each divided into eight realms, from weak to strong; to activate a gate was to instantly possess the power of that realm.

Though it seems to have a powerful effect, the consequences were extremely severe.

By descending through three realms in a row, you now possessed the power of the "Shocking Gate’s Realm," which, if compared to the "Sixth Level of Cultivation" amongst humans, meant you should have the strength of the Mahayana Realm now!

"Mahayana Realm!"

Luo Xin, originally anxious, practically jumped for joy when he saw your realm surge to that of the Mahayana Realm in an instant.

As for Luo Cheng, his face remained indifferent, as if the events unfolding before him had nothing to do with him. The Meng Family’s sentiment was not much different from Luo Xin’s—she was also very worried about you, but Luo Cheng had already communicated with her beforehand.

Luo Cheng, before his retreat, had informed the Meng Family of the upcoming upheaval; moreover, Master Bodhi Ancient Master had already hinted that the Luo Family should not get involved and needn’t worry about your safety, as everything was predestined.

"Flame Dragon!"

The air around you seemed to ignite, and soon you were enveloped by fierce flames. In the astonished gaze of the crowd, your body, together with the air, formed a huge fiery dragon’s head!

You did not bring out the Immovable Dragon Pole; instead, for the first time, you used the Fire Spirit Pearl, burning with rage, you intended to burn alive anyone who dared to bully your wife with the fierce flames!

Although a look of shock was in the Taoist’s eyes, he did not panic, and there was even a hint of a triumphant smirk hidden within.

Just as you were about to strike, a white figure suddenly flashed in, the newcomer was Qin Yuxuan.

"Luo Yun, it’s a trap; you must leave quickly!"

"How did you get here?" you did not expect Qin Yuxuan to appear at such a critical juncture.

"This person is no ordinary individual, he..." Qin Yuxuan’s words were not yet spoken when suddenly a longsword pierced her from behind, protruding from her chest!

The one who dealt the blow was none other than the stalking Third Prince of Qin Kingdom!

"Yuxuan!"

You rushed forward to hold Qin Yuxuan in your arms, your furious flames instantly engulfed the Third Prince of Qin Kingdom, wrapping him in fire, and soon, a pitiful howl came from within.

At this moment, the Taoist did not step forward to help but instead watched you and Qin Yuxuan with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, seemingly waiting for the appearance of someone.
