Surviving the catastrophe, Su Rui’s expression was somewhat startled, half in relief, the other half in some surprise.

In such a dangerous situation, she didn’t expect Luo Feng to step up.

If he had been even a bit slower, the three of them might not have survived.

Luo Feng released his grip, nodded slightly, and said casually, "Since we have established an alliance, I naturally wouldn’t watch you die without helping."

Su Rui raised her beautiful eyebrows, not expecting that the promise made in Mixed City for precaution would actually save her life at a critical moment.

"Anyway, I will remember this favor," Su Rui said.

Zhou Jian nodded heavily, "I will too."

"None of that matters, what matters is how to slay this Asura."

If it weren’t for the Devouring Yuan Giant Turtle Demon Core in Su Rui’s hand, everyone here would probably have perished, including himself. Thus, both emotionally and rationally, Luo Feng wouldn’t stand by and watch them die.

Su Rui glanced at the Asura, took a deep breath and said, "The Devouring Yuan Realm can maintain its effect for half a quarter-hour more, and shortly, its power will peak. That will be the perfect opportunity to slay this Asura. If we miss it, all of us will surely die."

"Then let’s slay him before that," Luo Feng’s gaze chilled.

Whoosh!

At that moment, the Asura flapped its wings, a fierce wind sweeping over the platform, shooting towards the three of them, the demonic Qi soaring to the sky, appearing from afar like dark clouds rolling in, weighing heavily on the heart.

Luo Feng frowned slightly, saying, "Fall back."

Bam!

Before they could respond, Luo Feng’s left hand slightly vibrated.

Bam!

The air rippled, causing Su Rui and Zhou Jian to be thrown backwards by the force of his palm.

Leveraging his strong soul power, Luo Feng sensed that Su Rui’s Yuan Qi was nearly depleted, reaching its limit. Zhou Jian was also severely injured, lacking the strength to battle the Asura.

"Luo Feng, this Asura possesses extraordinary power, be careful yourself."

Su Rui spoke immediately as her feet hit the ground.

At that moment, the air on the platform echoed sharply, the Asura already pressing overhead above Luo Feng.

"Heh heh, kid, you want to play hero and save the beauty, then I’ll grant your wish!"

The Asura grinned, baring its fangs, letting out a piercing, eerie laugh.

Just then, with a swishing sound, the Asura’s massive body transformed into a streak of black light, diving down from above, its wings shredding the air into pieces.

"Sky Cloud Step!"

Without turning his head, Luo Feng stepped on the ground, his form flickered, and he flew out at an extremely fast speed, leaving behind a series of afterimages.

Boom!

A loud crash, the Asura’s claws slammed onto the ground, making the earth tremble, dozens of terrifying cracks spreading in all directions, instantly shattering the afterimages.

Witnessing this scene, Luo Feng’s heart secretly jolted, but his eyes lit up slightly as they fell on the Asura.

"Spiritual Rotation Realm seventh level late-stage!"

Compared to just now, the Asura’s aura weakened quite a bit. It seems, as Su Rui mentioned, the Devouring Yuan Realm is still gradually enhancing.

"There’s hope!"

Gaze brightening slightly, Luo Feng hesitated not, unleashing the strongest strike of the Golden Crow Great Annihilation Saber: Golden Crow Annihilation Slash!

Though Thunder Fire Shocking Heavens possesses greater power and speed than the Golden Crow Annihilation Slash, its attack range is much less, not suitable for long-range attacks.

Screech!

A burst of flame suddenly appeared, accompanied by a loud, clear cry, and a three-legged Golden Crow with wings nearly a hundred meters long violently swooped out from the sky.

"Humph, overestimating yourself."

The Asura sneered, its right hand erupting with swirling demonic Qi, grabbing towards the Three-legged Golden Crow.

Boom!

A loud crash, the demonic Qi on the Asura’s hand was sliced open by the Saber Qi, deep bloodstains appearing on the right palm, the entire body forced back several steps.

Gulp!

Seeing Luo Feng and the Asura face-off, many on the platform couldn’t help but swallow.

"Daring to face the Asura head-on, such boldness."

"Indeed, I wouldn’t dare meet the Asura’s eyes, yet he can remain so composed. Regarding courage, I’m far inferior. No wonder he caught the eye of Linglong Hall’s second hall master Shui Linglong."

"Should we help?"

"Stop joking. Experts renowned on the New Dragon List are powerless before this Asura. What would we use to assist? Although the Asura’s cultivation is suppressed, it’s still a terrifying existence on the verge of transforming into a Great Asura. Without Luo Feng’s abnormal attack power, breaking its defense is impossible."

"This..."

Surprised that the strike could injure the Asura, Luo Feng quickly found clarity.

Having cultivated the Golden Crow Great Annihilation Saber to the tenth level of Great Accomplishment enables it to incinerate a Martial Artist’s Gang Qi, thus proving it has a greater restraining effect on the demonic Qi of Underground Demons.

Just at this moment.

"Ants, die for me!"

As an Asura of high status in the Underground Abyss, on the brink of evolving into a Great Asura, Gui Die was proud. Being injured by a mere Spiritual Rotation Realm sixth-level late-stage martial artist incensed him.

With a furious roar, the Asura’s body erupted with demonic Qi, surging straight into the sky, and in that instant, the sky over Mount Heimang darkened.

"Death Demon Claw!"

Boom!

The overwhelming demonic Qi transforms into a massive claw shadow, swooping down upon Luo Feng with even more power than the previous attack on Su Rui. What makes it terrifying is the black demon flames burning on the claw, containing an extremely frightening force. The air freezes into shards of frost, cracking inch by inch, as if becoming solid.

"Danger!"

Feeling the horrifying chill, Luo Feng’s heart felt a jolt. Even before the claw shadow descended, he sensed his blood flow slowing slightly. If hit, the consequences would be dire even if he survived.

Bam!

Without any hesitation, Luo Feng stomped on the ground, cracking it, and retreated explosively, simultaneously slashing out in the air.

Crack!

The gigantic saber light barely approached the demon claw before being frozen, shattering like crystal.

"Let’s see where you run now!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The Asura sneered, with a cruel glimmer in his blood-red gaze, pressed down with his right hand in the void.

Swipe!

The black demon claw suddenly changed direction, chasing Luo Feng with even greater speed.

Witnessing this, Luo Feng couldn’t help but gasp. The Sky Cloud Step was already pushed to the limit, but the odds of dodging this strike were less than thirty percent.

"Luo Feng, I’ll help you!"

A shimmering golden light appeared, and Lin Hongyi suddenly emerged nearby, enveloped in what seemed like substantial golden light.

Bam!

Cracking the ground underfoot, Lin Hongyi’s golden hair lifted as she clenched her right fist and punched the earth.

"Mountain Crusher!"

With a boom, the ground trembled, the platform ruptured, rocks soared, forming a small mountain that sheltered the two.

This small mountain contained Lin Hongyi’s Yuan Qi, its surface gleaming with golden light, standing firm like a golden peak.

Boom!

The demon claw arrived in an instant, and the small mountain held momentarily before exploding, but during that brief moment, Luo Feng and Lin Hongyi had retreated over ten meters, avoiding the residual shockwave.

Cough!

Lin Hongyi coughed lightly, gasping for Yuan Qi, her face flushed, her chest heaving.

"Thank you."

Luo Feng spoke. Had Lin Hongyi not appeared earlier, he was confident in blocking that claw but at a definite cost.

"This is what I owe you."

Lin Hongyi shook her head, her eyes like glazed golden crystals, looking at the Asura ahead with a serious expression, saying, "Besides, if we don’t kill this guy, none of us will survive today."

"You’re right."

Luo Feng agreed with a nod.

"Count me in."

A light voice sounded, and a graceful figure landed beside Luo Feng; it was Xue Ziyi from the Purple Extreme Palace.

She had been injured by the demon flame storm earlier, but her wounds had mostly healed by now, immediately stepping forward to assist.

Eying Luo Feng with clear eyes like water, Xue Ziyi was slightly surprised and impressed. She could not imagine such courage housed in this seemingly small body, daring to face the Asura alone. And the formidable power, unforgettable.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Air currents surged as a male disciple from Sky Sword Pavilion and a male disciple from Yuangang Hall appeared at their sides.

"Count me in, Hengyuan."

"Although I’m not as strong as you guys, I still have some skills that might help," Li Tong said.

Both men spoke, full of heroic spirit.

"Lenjian Hengyuan, Stone Man Li Tong! Both are top experts on the new Dragon Rankings, which gives us four new Dragon-ranked masters with Luo Feng, making a total of five—there’s a chance to win!"

"If we don’t win, we’re doomed. The Devouring Yuan Realm won’t last forever."

The five are the top disciples of the Golden Palace, gathering together with an overwhelming aura, drawing everyone’s attention, their expressions fervent.

Luo Feng glanced at the four beside him, feeling equally passionate. Undeterred by danger, doing what one desires, this is the essence of a martial artist. Otherwise, even reaching the summit, what would be the point?

"Alright, the five of us will join forces for a life-and-death battle with him. If we win, I’ll treat you all to drinks." Luo Feng exhaled, the four are well-known talents on the new Dragon Rankings, not weak in strength, as for the others, they need not act; the strength disparity at a certain point only means death.

Just like him, even if facing encirclement by ten thousand Meridian Wheel Realm martial artists, he confidently could slaughter them all, leaving none alive.

"Hehe, come on, saving me from killing you one by one. I can finish it all at once!"

Suddenly, demonic Qi surges on the platform, a massive demonic shadow forms behind the Asura, towering over ten meters tall, covered in triangular scales, a single horn, and engulfed in rolling demon flames, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

"Now’s the time, attack!"

Luo Feng’s intense soul power sensed the Devouring Yuan Realm strengthening, the Asura’s cultivation suppressed to mid-level of Four Spirit Rotations. Knowing this was a fleeting opportunity, he immediately darted out.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...

Lin Hongyi and the others flashed, their figures charging at the Asura from different directions.

"Cold Flow Sword!"

"Sinking Mountain Leg!"

Hengyuan and Li Tong acted first, each displaying their ultimate skills, surrounding the Asura.

Though the two were in the latter fifty positions of the new Dragon Rankings, their combined attack was formidable, with vast expanse of Sword Qi and leg shadows intertwining and merging, creating a presence resembling a whirlwind, enveloping the Asura and washing over him.
