Chapter 299 A desperate battle, slaying a legend! True death is approaching!

More than a hundred wild monsters transformed by death stood before Xiao Yun, like an insurmountable city wall.

After being transformed by death, even the lowest of them are equivalent to powerful seventh-order monsters. Coupled with nearly double-digit number of overlord-level monsters, even Xiao Yun himself would find it difficult to cope.

Not to mention, one of them is a Death Demon Legend who has surpassed the Overlord level and reached the fifth sequence under the impetus of death.

The Son of Death stood atop the Death Demon Legend, silently gazing at Xiao Yun, and suddenly let out a soft sigh tinged with regret: "To be honest, my friend, you are my nemesis, and also my kind."

"At times like these, I really want to talk to you a bit more, about things like the true meaning of life and death, or the future of the world —"

His tone was incredibly sincere, as if he were truly talking to an old friend.

Xiao Yun remained outwardly calm, but in reality, he had already activated the 10 Candle Dragon Furies stored in his backpack.

It can be activated immediately if the Son of Death truly lowers his guard, leaving an indelible mark on him.

But in the next second, the Son of Death changed his tone: "However, during the time I was born, I absorbed some information about this world, and there was a saying: 'Villains die from talking too much.'"

"While I don't consider myself a villain, it's best to be cautious when facing an enemy like you."

As the Son of Death spoke, he gently waved his hand, commanding all the wild monsters to attack Xiao Yun.

The power of death surged in like a tsunami, and the monsters roared as they launched their strongest attacks without holding back.

"Damn, this guy's only been around for a short time, and he's already this cunning!"

Xiao Yun cursed under his breath, and without any hesitation, summoned the Insect Ancestor.

"Hmm!"

The Insect Ancestor murmured, and the Starlight Illuminating All Realms was instantly activated.

A dazzling galaxy descended from the sky, suppressing death and restraining the onrushing monsters.

At the same time, it flapped its wings, grabbed Xiao Yun, and quickly pulled away.

But before they could retreat even a few meters, they heard several deafening roars.

Several overlord-level monsters attacked simultaneously, tearing through the shackles of starlight, and arrived in the blink of an eye.

The tangible power of death was right before his eyes, but Xiao Yun did not panic.

"Although the Insect Ancestor is strong, he is only at the seventh sequence and cannot deal with several sixth sequence overlords at the same time."

""

If Charmander and King Crow were here, it would be worth a try, but Xiao Yun left them at the defensive line and didn't bring them with him.

But that doesn't mean he has no way to deal with it.

A flash of light appeared in Xiao Yun's hand as he threw out three [Wrath of the Candle Dragon].

"roar!"

With a furious dragon roar, blazing flames shot into the sky.

boom!

The world was a black and white expanse.

When everything returned to its original color, a large crater appeared at the edge of the lake. Nearly half of the lake water evaporated in the terrifying heat of the explosion, and the sublimated inorganic matter turned into ashes and fell to the ground.

Inside the crater, several overlord-level monsters struggled to their feet, their bodies mangled and their breaths barely audible.

Many more King-level monsters that were affected have been reduced to ashes.

However, they showed no fear in their eyes; driven by death, they were filled only with a frenzied killing intent.

Moreover, in the distance, a terrifying aura of death surged forth, accompanied by even more frenzied roars.

"You're just barely clinging to life. Your bombs are limited, but my monsters are endless."

The Son of Death spoke calmly, his voice full of malice: "If there aren't enough wild monsters, I can summon some dead ones. Oh, by the way, I can see their memories before they died. Some of them were your former classmates, and even a girl who had a crush on you in junior high."

A cold glint flashed in Xiao Yun's eyes, and he said in a cold voice, "Is this the only way you can distract me? You clearly have such a huge advantage, yet you still resort to such clumsy methods. Is it caution, or are you—afraid of failing like last time?"

"Hahaha, yes, I am afraid, because you and I are natural enemies. Even if I control death, if you kill me, I will truly die."

The Son of Death said sincerely, but a playful smile appeared on his lips: "Moreover, although this method is clumsy, it works very well."

"See, you're already distracted, aren't you?"

Xiao Yun's pupils dilated in shock as he realized that the Death Demon Legend beneath his feet had somehow turned into a pile of useless bones.

"Where does the cicada shed its skin?"

Before he could react, the Insect Ancestor behind him suddenly grabbed him and swerved to the side.

But it was too late.

Subtle ripples spread across the space so close together, and a massive, eerie light appeared. Claws covered in bone spurs solidified instantly, piercing the insect's wings.

In the explosion, the bug was also affected and had not fully recovered. Caught off guard, it was impossible for it to dodge the legendary monster's attack.

scoff!

"Ugh!!!"

The insect let out a scream as half of its wing was almost torn to shreds.

The brilliant galaxy shattered, starlight scattered and trembled, trying to condense, but was stopped by the power of death.

"die!"

The Death Demon Legend let out a low roar, and the power of death surged around him, instantly transforming into an invisible domain that enveloped Xiao Yun and Chongchong.

Within the domain, a cacophony of chaotic hissing echoed, like the unwilling roars of the dead. Sharp white bones pierced the ground, reaching out to grab Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun's eyes flashed, wanting to dodge, but he felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him.

"Die, die!"

Xiao Yun turned his head at the sound and found countless ghosts clinging tightly to his shoulders, like a real-life version of being paralyzed by ghosts.

"Opening your domain right off the bat, that's really unethical!"

Xiao Yun sighed softly, a resolute glint flashing in his eyes.

"In that case, let's not test them anymore."

The remaining seven [Wrath of the Candle Dragon] appeared in his hand at the same time and lit up simultaneously.

"roar!!!"

The dragon's roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and even those far away on the ancient city's defense line heard it.

"A dragon?"

Just as they were wondering what was going on, they suddenly felt the ground beneath their feet tremble violently.

boom!!!

At the edge of the horizon, a blood-red dot of light appeared, growing larger and larger.

It was as if a sliver of the setting sun rose on the ground and then suddenly disappeared.

Only the scorching air blowing from afar told us that this was not an illusion.

"Plop—"

Many people swallowed hard, unable to recover for a long time.

On the defensive line, Gu Shen looked into the distance, his eyes flashing: "Is this already so exciting just the opening? Not bad, not bad."

"I hope that in my previous life, the Child of Death who made the whole world tremble could push Ayun to her limit."

And it seems that things turned out exactly as he expected.

On the battlefield, the lake had evaporated completely, and even the island in the middle of the lake had vanished without a trace.

An area spanning thousands of kilometers was razed to the ground, and the wild monsters that had been struggling on the edge were completely reduced to ashes.

Amidst the swirling ashes, Xiao Yun, supporting his broken body, knelt on the ground.

Although he possessed the blood of eternal flame, he did not die immediately, but his condition was already critical.

Chongchong returned from her follower space and did her best to heal him, barely managing to keep him in a stable condition.

"call----"

Xiao Yun Chang let out a breath, raised his blurry vision, and looked at the Legend of the Death Demon.

The seven Candle Dragon Furies, each containing the full power of a top-tier professional with dual attributes and dual S-rank talent, explode simultaneously. Their power is not simply added together, but multiplied exponentially.

Even though the Death Demon Legend was two ranks higher than him, he was still in bad shape after taking that hit.

"Those who have died once will not die again."

"The Son of Death said calmly, his fingers twirling slightly. Strands of extremely pure death energy flowed from all over the world and into the body of the Death Demon Legend."

With the power of death replenishing him, the Death Demon Legend's condition improved at a visible speed.

Although still seriously injured, killing the half-crippled Chongchong and the critically ill Xiao Yun was enough.

"This time, with my physical body present, your soul will not be able to escape as it did last time."

The Son of Death's voice was cold, yet tinged with pity: "Farewell, my friend."

Before he could finish speaking, the Death Demon Legend raised his hand, and his bone-spiked claws slashed down.

But the next second, it froze in place like a wooden sculpture.

The Son of Death frowned slightly and instinctively increased the flow of death power.

However, he suddenly realized that the once inexhaustible power of death was now as if it had dried up, and no matter how he tried to control it, he could not mobilize it.

"Cough cough cough, it seems I've won—"

Xiao Yun's lips curled into a smile, his crimson-gold eyes gleaming with a dazzling light like the sun.

He just detonated the Wrath of the Candle Dragon both to save his life and to cover up his true purpose, buying time to activate the [True Seeds] scattered under the Towers of Death around the world.

Now, nearly half of the Towers of Death have been transformed into Towers of Fire by the True Seed, and the Children of Death can no longer freely manipulate the power of death.

He couldn't even maintain the benefits he had for the Death Demon Legend.

A legend collapsed to his knees like a puppet with its strings cut, his imposing aura rapidly fading.

The Son of Death's face instantly darkened, but before he could make a move, he was bound by a dazzling galaxy.

Even though this could only hold him back for a second, in less than that second, the sword rang out with a deafening roar.

Clang!

The mithril sword soared into the air, its blazing white light illuminating the heavens and earth.

"Hereinafter, I bestow upon you your destined death!"

With a childish, cold shout, the sword light, like an inverted Milky Way, struck the Death Demon Legend.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully defeating the legendary monster – Death Demon Legend!]

[Congratulations, player! You have achieved the world's first kill of a legendary monster. This will be announced globally. Would you like to remain anonymous?]

[Legendary First Kill Rewards Being Distributed —]

A series of pop-up windows appeared before Xiao Yun's eyes, but he didn't have time to look at them.

He gripped the mithril sword, slowly rose to his feet, and, trailed by starlight, approached the Son of Death.

"it's over."

Xiao Yun said calmly, and without hesitation swung his longsword down.

However, the mithril sword remained stationary above the Son of Death's head, unable to advance an inch.

"I underestimated you, my friend. You managed to do so much by yourself, with only your abilities not yet fully recovered."

The Son of Death looked wistful, but a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

As if sensing his will, a gray-black crown slowly condensed above his head.

His aura surged, instantly reaching the legendary level, even surpassing the Lord of Death.

"I am the master of death; in my hands, is death such an inconvenient thing?"
