The inner city of the capital was shrouded in darkness.

The giant door, over thirty meters high, collapsed, sending fragments flying through the air and kicking up clouds of dust.

The Black Marquis stared intently at what was in front of him, not missing a single movement. Suddenly, the billowing dust broke open with countless large holes, and hundreds of lightning spears shot out, their eerie blue light filling his vision.

"Wan Lei has indeed fallen into your hands!"

One lightning spear after another struck, black rose petals materialized and withered, Black Spear Technique: Leopard Shadow was activated, and the Black Marquis retreated swiftly, his movement trajectory unusually fast and unpredictable, the lightning spears falling one after another, leaving behind blinding lightning explosions.

Boom boom boom!

Amidst the thunderous explosions that blanketed the earth, a streak of light darted left and right, rapidly approaching the enemy. Its armor was jet black, followed by a trail of gray mist, and a silver spear thrust out fiercely, unleashing a torrent of internal energy that created wisps of turbulent currents, as if cut by a knife.

A blow powerful enough to severely injure a peak-level Grand Knight.

Even as an opponent, the Black Marquis couldn't help but marvel at the speed and ferocity of the thrust. The spear flash before his eyes was unavoidable, showcasing masterful skill. He laughed loudly and thrust his heavy lance forward with all his might, causing petals to fall.

One after another, phantom images of bears appeared.

Black Spear Technique - Bear's Might.

Boom!

As their guns clashed, the immense power of both sides roared forth, sending ripples of air up layers of the surrounding ground, sending sand and stones flying.

The Black Marquis's right arm, which was holding the gun, suddenly shattered. The silver gun was so heavy that when it was converted into kinetic energy, it was almost indestructible.

In an instant, a military boot came flying.

Bang!

A simple, pure straight kick struck the Black Marquis squarely in the chest. The extremely violent force shattered the flesh and bone of his chest, and spiderweb-like cracks spread across his torso. Blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushed from his mouth, an undeniable serious injury.

"Good weight!"

The Black Marquis forced himself to stay alert, and his ultimate self-healing ability repaired the damage. In the blink of an eye, the person in front of him swung his gun down, giving him no chance to catch his breath.

Black Spear Technique: Bear's Might was activated once more, and a surge of power erupted throughout his body. The Black Marquis sacrificed himself to deliver a spear thrust, his right arm, which was gripping the spear, exploded into a bloody mess, leaving almost only pale bones.

boom!

The two guns clashed, their sound echoing like muffled thunder.

A gleaming silver slash came from behind, but the Black Marquis calmed himself down. His arm had already recovered, and he raised his spear to meet the attack again, showing no weakness.

"It will happen quickly, but it will be visible."

Suddenly, lightning erupted from the chest where he had been kicked, reopening the healed wound. The extreme paralysis froze the Black Marquis for a moment, and his expression changed.

Jiang He thrust his weapon at close range, obliterating the enemy's chest and abdomen. The heavy lance attack missed, the blade grazing past his shoulder.

The ultimate-level black blood self-healing healed the wounds, and the Black Marquis's brows were ferocious, but he had already fallen into a disadvantageous position with one careless move.

Boom boom boom!

With three consecutive shots, Jiang He cleaved the target in half, severed its head, and decapitated it. The Soul-Eating Effect of the Eternal Regret Dragon Spear evaporated a total of 8000 energy points from the target. If it were replaced by something like the Golden Lion Duke, the battle would be over.

But the black blood's self-healing function is still working.

The Black Marquis sneered and thrust forward with all his might. Petals withered on the true form of the black rose, and real dragon roars rose all around. The nine dragon bloodlines, one of his trump cards, were activated. One of them was relatively incomplete and was very similar to the wind dragon in Kalib Port. His body suddenly grew taller, scales and a dragon tail appeared, and his speed, strength and physique were fully amplified.

A burst of light erupted from the heavy cavalry's spearhead, unleashing the ultimate destruction effect of the S-class treasure weapon.

Black Spear Technique: Desperate Dragon Breath.

An attack that was in no way inferior to the smoke gun surged forth.

Jiang He parried with his spear, then moved backward several hundred meters, leaving two deep ravines in the ground with his legs. The dragon breath, containing extreme destructive power, washed over his entire body, ravaging the defenses of the Overlord Armor and the Domain Armor. The spear light pierced through his left chest, destroying his heart completely.

A peculiar burning force is hindering the effectiveness of the ultimate self-healing; this is the supreme energy characteristic from the Sun Elf bloodline.

The dragon's roar resounded throughout heaven and earth.

The Black Marquis was still savoring the lingering pain of being shattered to pieces multiple times. His gaze swept over his enemy, whose horrific chest wound was slowly healing. His own supreme-level burning technique had lost its source and was being extinguished by multiple forces.

"So you also have self-healing abilities."

"It's a pity it fell a little short."

The true form of the Black Rose reappeared, but a few petals had permanently fallen. Behind the Black Marquis, a long, brownish-yellow beast circled his body. This beast with a strange bloodline was called the Long Earth Dragon, which originated from earthworms with hermaphroditic characteristics.

The Long Earth Dragon bloodline continuously transformed its life force into silver energy to replenish the enormous losses caused by the evaporation of the silver spear. Back when the two were traveling side by side, they both obtained some information about the enemy because of that sudden shot.

The Black Marquis charged forward, just as he used the bloodline of the Long Earth Dragon to resist the loss of energy. His opponent must have also prepared a means to counter the ultimate level of self-healing. Today's battle is nothing more than a fight to the death.

A beam of gunfire, surrounded by a wolf-shaped phantom, shot straight out.

Black Spear Technique: Nine Wolves' Bite.

The Black Marquis was menacing. After transplanting the bloodline of the Sun Elf, his hair turned platinum. The ultimate level of burning power was contained in every attack. In addition, he had 25% damage reduction in the same slot and 50% elemental resistance.

Gunfire drew near.

Jiang He spat out a fragment of internal organs that had risen from his throat, activated his speed mode, and took a double step forward. Dark red wolf smoke shimmered on the silver spear in his hand.

Boom!

The two collided head-on.

A perfectly straight line on the ground cracked almost simultaneously.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Gunshots flashed like lightning, their cold light gleaming everywhere.

The two spears clashed repeatedly, sparks flying everywhere, and shockwaves made people's eardrums ache. The spear lights crisscrossed, dense as a woven net, and countless white ripples swept out.

Jiang He spun his silver spear, creating layers of spear flowers. The Black Marquis unleashed his Black Spear Technique: Bear's Roar without regard for the cost, his momentum no less. Within a mere three zhang, the two shifted their figures with ghostly speed. The duel between the spear masters stirred up gusts of fierce wind, like blades slashing through the air.

Suddenly, the Black Marquis paused for a moment.

The true form of the Black Rose fell petals, a wolf reborn from its severed head, a bear awakening from hibernation, and a nine-headed swaying sea serpent—all these bloodlines converged and unleashed their power together.

Black Gun Technique - Reignition.

Within Jiang He's body, the previously extinguished supreme-level burning power surged wildly, causing his heart to burst open again. Furthermore, the remaining five-colored flames within his body showed signs of igniting.

This unpredictable spear technique brought the power of the Sun Elf bloodline to its extreme and could reignite the flames. Clearly, the enemy had prepared a strategy to complement the bloodline before obtaining it.

boom!

The heavy lance pierced Jiang He's chest; the ultimate-level destruction possessed terrifying destructive power, instantly shattering his defenses.

But at the same time, an invisible wave rose.

For the first time, the Black Marquis's expression turned horrified.

The dual five-color simplified domain unfolded, and after being blessed by the Dream of Fallen, the domain's hardness increased dramatically, covering an area of ​​three hundred meters in radius. The five forces of blood poison, burning, withering, corrosion, and embers acted on the enemy units within the range.

The Black Marquis's body immediately suffered various injuries, but he was relieved. This simple domain could control energy damage to attack enemies directly and continuously, but it was far less violent than a complete domain.

"It's nothing more than that..."

Suddenly, the true forms of two suns rose from the center and then exploded violently. The vast, simple domain collapsed and contracted rapidly, converging all the light, heat, and impact, and blasting it onto the Black Marquis.

The simplified domain transformed into an almost intimate prison. When the domain walls shattered, light shot straight into the sky, and twelve black roses withered away forever, leaving only half a head of the Black Marquis.

boom!

Jiang He seized the opportunity and suddenly thrust out his Forty-Eight Wolf Smoke Gun.

"Then let's fight to the death!"

The Black Marquis roared, and as his foot landed, his body was fully restored. Even the ultimate level of self-healing requires a source of energy to activate the skill. If the energy is insufficient, it will be replaced by bloodline life force. This time, ten petals withered permanently, and none of the petals representing the wolf beast remained.

Black Gun - Nine Wolves Bite

At the cost of the complete depletion of bloodline, the power of this shot was unprecedented. The spear light, as thick as a wall, burst forth, instantly shattering the beacon fire spear, and then piercing through Jiang He's abdomen. Its momentum did not diminish, and it obliterated the distant New Red Fortress. From the sky, the spear light almost sliced ​​through the entire inner city.

Jiang He's face immediately paled; the power was indeed remarkable.

boom!

The eighteen petals disappeared, and Black Gun: Leopard Shadow and Black Gun: Frost were activated simultaneously.

The Black Marquis arrived in front of the enemy in an instant, his speed almost surpassing the current level.

The first slash swept across, the ultimate destructive power of the heavy lance cleaving the opponent in half at the waist.

The second thrust pierced straight through, and the frost that formed the massive door sealed it away forever.

The Black Marquis, his face bloodthirsty, had been plotting for a century. Nearly half of the bloodlines he had painstakingly collected and feared had withered away, and the title he had once held so easily was now in grave danger.

"You're asking for death!"

Nine black petals fell to the ground and turned to mud, unleashing the terrifyingly powerful Black Spear - Bear Crest.

The third powerful strike shattered the frozen sculpture, leaving Jiang He's body in pieces.

But in the next moment, the Möbius time loop activates.

Jiang He broke free from the ice and stood firm again, seemingly unharmed. The free effect of the Long-Hate Dragon Spear was activated, and the stun with a cooldown of ten minutes was launched. This move was based on rank, and the silver spear's supreme quality was enough to put the Black Marquis into a full 1.5-second stun.

"How can it be!"

The Black Marquis was greatly shocked. What did it mean that he had been hiding such a shameless trick until now?

In those 1.5 seconds, which felt incredibly long for someone at peak combat strength, Jiang He fired continuously, ignoring the rapid depletion of his energy, repeatedly destroying the Black Marquis with his Forty-Eight Wolf Smoke Guns.

On the true form of the black rose, petals of blood vessels withered and fell.

Boom boom boom!

Destruction and repair are in a struggle with each other.

The Black Marquis was seething with rage. The black rose petals were the resources for his promotion to a higher title, but that didn't mean he would lose his self-healing ability once all the petals disappeared. This body, which contained the blackest of black, possessed an unimaginable vitality.

Meanwhile, on the streets of the outer city.

On the bloody battlefield where nearly 100,000 people died, countless seeds of iron-blooded vines sprouted and grew. This peculiar plant, obtained from an ancient book of plants, can grow rapidly by absorbing life force. With an abundant supply of nutrients, a tidal wave of vines instantly forms.

Guided by the plants, a vine tidal wave, like the bursting of the Blue Memories, surged into the inner city.

Once the 1.5-second imprisonment ended, Jiang He withdrew and retreated, manipulating the iron-blooded vines to bind the enemy. Due to the low level of plant control, the Black Marquis was initially able to put up a fierce resistance, but with the life force of 100,000 people as nourishment, the raging tide came one wave after another, quickly covering the entire inner city.

In a dark, sunless sea of ​​vines.

The Marquis of Black had a solemn expression.

The immense life force within his body was dissipating, further propelling the growth of the Ironblood Vines. Only thirty or so black rose petals remained, and he seemed to have reached the end of his road.

"Is this the funeral prepared for me?"

"Isn't that a bit too naive?"

"Since I chose this battlefield, victory was destined from the very beginning, because my life is tougher!"

In an instant, the entire inner city buzzed.

In the crowded, stacked sea of ​​vines, countless specks of light float to the surface, creating a dreamlike and beautiful scene under the night sky.

The Black Marquis resolutely activated Black Gun: Reignition.

The inner city of the royal capital was no ordinary place; not long ago, a massive explosion that shocked the nations occurred there, directly leading to the fall of the titled knight, King Dejouk.

Black Gun: Reignition is the key to reawakening this power.

"Die!" the Black Marquis roared, looking up.

Within the inner city, countless points of light emitted dazzling brilliance.

Jiang He's expression changed for the first time amidst the layers of vines.

Because of the passage of time, the impending explosion will be far less than one-tenth the power of the original super explosion, and it will lack the Blacklight Gem's powerful targeting of flesh and soul, as well as its true damage.

However, in order to ensure the killing of King Djouk, he used a full 100,000 high-quality chaos bombs, which may have caused serious damage overflow.

Countless rays of light shot out from the gaps in the sea of ​​vines, and dazzling beams of light shot straight into the sky, piercing the night. A torrent of energy surged forth, as if a natural disaster had struck.

Jiang He put all his strength into clasping his hands together, and tens of thousands of iron-blooded vines surrounded him to form a defense. Two simple domains rose up, but they were destroyed in the blink of an eye.

"Then come again."

The dual-domain shell rose again and again, and each time it appeared, its range shrank dramatically, accompanied by the incessant rumble of thunder and the cracking sounds of breaking.

The vine-covered walls have been completely worn away.

The simple domain was broken seventeen times.
