Chapter 917: Three Avatars

*Boom*

Suddenly, Tang Chen's aura exploded as he activated his strengthening technique, and he threw his purple short spear towards Hundun while flying towards him with both hands holding his saber above his head.

"Hahaha!" Hundun laughed loudly after he blocked Tang Chen's purple short spear, and he swung his mace to block his saber.

*Boom*

Their weapons clashed instantly, sending a large qi wave sweeping through the area, but the impact of their attacks also bounced them backwards.

However, Tang Chen faintly smiled and made a gesture with his left hand, and his short purple spear moved towards Hundun again, aiming to attack him from behind. However, he noticed it and swiftly flew up to avoid it.

Even so, the purple short spear turned around and pursued him, but Hundun ignored it and swooped his mace towards Tang Chen, enveloping it in dark qi. "Die! Human!"

"You are strong, but it's not enough to kill me." Instantly, a powerful fire qi enveloped Tang Chen's saber, and he also swung it towards Hundun, which made their attacks once again clash with each other.

*Boom*

"Die!"

"Hyahhh!"

Both of them tightly gripped their respective weapons as they tried hard to knock each other away, but their attacks seemed evenly matched instead, which made Hundun quite shocked by Tang Chen's strength.

"Hahaha!" Hundun unexpectedly laughed before speaking to Tang Chen. "You truly deserve to be the strongest among them! I've never felt this excited when fighting my enemies! Even that old dragon king couldn't match my strength! Unfortunately, you will still die in my hands, and I will take over this realm."

"Is that so?" Tang Chen asked with a faint smirk, causing Hundun to frown, but he suddenly felt something powerful from behind, so he separated their weapons and flew away.

However, Tang Chen's left hand made another gesture, which made his purple short spear multiply before surrounding Hundun, and many powerful lightnings shot out from their blade tips.

"Gah!" Hundun let out a groan filled with pain after those lightnings struck his body, but he then released his dark qi and repelled those spears, which returned them to one again. "Hehehe! Your lightning element is strong, but my dark element is even stronger, and your attack just tickled me."

"You are right; my lightning element is indeed inferior to your dark element." Tang Chen replied with a nod of approval, but he pointed his saber at the sky, and his fire qi shot out from it, making it turn so long and soar into the sky. "If you think your dark element is that strong, then you can try to receive this one attack of mine."

'Fuck! His fire qi is much stronger than his lightning qi!' Hundun inwardly cursed before flying away, and his avatar once again appeared behind him. "Come! Attack me! I will destroy your attack."

"Eat my attack!" Tang Chen shouted as he swung his saber downwards, but Hundun's avatar swung his mace upwards to stop his attack.

*Boom*

"Shit!" Hundun cursed in shock as he saw Tang Chen's attacks suppress his avatar, but he then released his dark qi even more as he enlarged his mace before striking his saber. "Break for me!"

Instead, Hundun and his avatar gradually approached the sea's surface as the intensity of Tang Chen's fire qi increased.

Suddenly, Hundun smiled as the sky began to open again, and he knew that Tang Chen didn't have much time left, especially since the laws of the Star Cloud Realm would soon force him to ascend.

Tang Chen himself was naturally aware of that, so he once again controlled his spear to attack Hundun and his avatar, and it split into many spears.

"Useless! You will never succeed in killing me!" As Hundun shouted at Tang Chen, attempting to reverse their positions, numerous lightnings struck them, causing his avatar to instantly disappear. Those attacks threw him into the sea, electrocuting him. "Gah!"

However, Tang Chen's attack didn't stop there, and his fire saber also slashed at Hundun, which made the ocean split into two. "Gah!"

While he was in such a situation, Hundun saw several other attacks heading towards him, which were attacks from the other cultivators. They decided to make their move after they saw signs that Tang Chen would be forced to ascend to the supreme realm soon, or else they would suffer if he had not been defeated.

*Boom... Boom...*

Even though their attacks perfectly hit his body, they didn't have much of an effect on Hundun, but he frowned as several wounds suddenly appeared on his body, and he looked at Zhou Yu as he was sure that she was the culprit. 'That bitch! If she wasn't a member of a spirit race, I would have killed her long ago!'

As he glared fiercely at those cultivators, Hundun flew before Tang Chen again, and there were already three black talismans in his hands. "You failed! Your time is running out! Since you will be forced to ascend, I will let you go by witnessing your realm's destruction."

"Hmm?" Tang Chen frowned after he saw the three black talismans in Hundun's hand, and he could more or less guess their use. "Since before we started fighting, I was aware that I couldn't beat you, but you also couldn't beat me. However, I didn't expect that an arrogant creature like you would use such a method to destroy us, and it is not worth your arrogance."

"So what?" Hundun ignored Tang Chen's ridicule. "Winning is still winning no matter what kind of method we use, and you can witness it with your own eyes."

After he said that, Hundun activated the three black talismans, and they quickly shone, causing black clouds to envelop the entire Star Cloud Realm. Additionally, many large earthquakes rocked the realm, panicking its inhabitants, and water waves in the ocean continued to hit the land.

Unlike the other cultivators who panicked because of the changes, Tang Chen still stood calmly in the air, but Yue Mengyi suddenly flew to his side before holding his hand, and they nodded in understanding to each other.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yu immediately increased the number of void walls around them, especially since the pressure pressing down on them became stronger.

Soon, three other figures appeared behind Hundun, and they were none other than the other three evil mythical beasts. However, they are only avatars of Qiong Qi, Tao Tie, and Tao Wu.

Qiong Qi has an appearance like a winged tiger with many spikes on his back and fiery red eyes, and his body is incredibly large, but his figure is still not as big as Ling Yun's complete dragon form.

Tao Wu bears the features of a lion covered in dog fur, a pair of protruding boar fangs, and an extremely long tail. However, there was a mask in the shape of a human face above his head, and his figure was slightly smaller compared to Qiong Qi.

Meanwhile, Tao Tie's appearance was like a black behemoth with a large body, and his body was a bit bigger than Qiong Qi. There are three or five large horns on top of his head, but two of them point backwards. What made his figure so scary were the two big eyes between his armpits, and those two eyes kept moving to observe Tang Chen and the others.

"Why did you summon us just to deal with lowly creatures like them, Hundun?" Qiong Qi asked in a deep voice.

Hundun pointed at Tang Chen. "Can't the three of you feel anything different from that human? Even though he's only a human, he's really different from the others. Aside from that, he's just broken through, but he can match my strength."

"You are right; he is indeed different from other humans, and there is hidden strength in his body, so it is not surprising that he can match you." Tao Wu said as he nodded.

As he continued to pay attention to Tang Chen, Tao Tie joined in. "Unfortunately, my body is not here now, or else I would devour him, and his hidden power would be mine."

The three other beasts could only shake their heads listening to Tao Tie's words, especially since he was the greediest among them, and Hundun then spoke to his brothers. "All right, I want you guys to help me destroy him and this realm, or he will become a thorn in our plans, especially since the primordial chaos dragon has returned, and he is one of his allies."

"Let's do it, we-"

"Are you guys finished talking?" Tang Chen suddenly interrupted them. "Honestly, I've been waiting for the arrival of the three of you, and you guys will definitely regret coming to my realm."

"Hmm?" The four mythical beasts frowned when Tang Chen also took out a talisman, but it was much different from theirs, and they could feel the power much greater than theirs. "Stop him!"

Unfortunately, they were too late to realize it, and Tang Chen had already activated the talisman. Instantly, the talisman shot up into the sky, and it dispelled the darkness that enveloped the Star Cloud Realm before shining extremely brightly, and the extreme light element that emerged from it weakened the four of them. 'Shit! What kind of light element is this? How can there be such a strong light element in this universe?'
