Chapter 719: Unleashed

“This G.o.dd.a.m.n, little rascal…”

Elder Tianshan was so infuriated that she had gritted her teeth. Her hair tossed about in the energy-charged air around her, and a sweat broke out on her forehead. Her powerful aura caused the air to s.h.i.+mmer as she channeled her inner power from her hands into the pitch-black Prison of Heaven and Earth, re-sealing the cracks that formed.

As time pa.s.sed, the speed at which she could repair the cracks could not keep up with the rate the damage was occurring. Many more cracks appeared on its surface and started spreading outward like a spider web.

“Long, aren’t you going to help?” Tianshan Elder snapped at Elder Long, who was watching her below.

“Junior Sister, fear not, I shall help you now!”

Elder Long then reacted with much enthusiasm, then bounded into the sky toward Elder Tianshan. He channeled his inner power to Tianshan Elder by placing his palms on her back.

By doing so, the surrounding air altered to an unnatural state and appeared to distort, like a piece of paper folded multiple times and forming many creases.

And it proved effective as the Prison of Heaven and Earth was suddenly enveloped in a bright glow and the cracked on the surface disappeared rapidly. At last, all the cracks were repaired, and the prison looked whole again. The beast was once again contained within.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Thumping and loud bangs came from within the Prison of Heaven and Earth, but the walls held firm. The structure of the prison kept its integrity, and no more cracks appeared.

Both Tianshan Elder and Elder Long descended back to the ground. The old man wiped the sweat off his forehead, and said, “If we had not combined our forces, Xiao Luo could have broken free of this prison. This power he possesses is indeed impressive!”

“This is also the scary part of the Xiao Clan.”

Elder Tianshan was panting heavily, and even her lively face could not hide her exhaustion. “Long, I have now unlocked that rascal’s potential completely, And if he turns into that demon who brings calamity to our world, you will surely die with me!”

“Junior Sister, rest a.s.sured… rest a.s.sured. If he is, then he still has us both to contend with, and besides, we also have the Light Clan from the Arcana Land. It wouldn’t be easy for the demon to bring doom to the world.” Elder Long replied as he stroked his non-existent beard.

“Bang~”

As he finished speaking, a thunderous explosion came from the direction of the Prison of Heaven and Earth.

“Urrgh!”

Tianshan Elder suddenly vomited blood with no warning, and when they looked at the prison, a gigantic arm had emerged from its walls. It was as pale as bone and sinewy, with its hand like a ghostly claw, tipped with pitch-black nails as sharp as daggers. It appeared to be something with an evil nature.

“What… What is that?”

Watching from the shed, Gu Qianlin was shocked when she saw the gigantic pale arm. She felt a sense of panic as what she saw did not resemble a human’s but seemed to belong to an evil creature. It looked exactly like those mutated zombies in the movies.

Was that Xiao Luo’s hand?

How did his hand turn into this horrible thing?

There were many questions in her head, and together with those beastly roars earlier, Gu Qianlin only felt an unparalleled sense of fear.

It stunned Gu Qianxue and Xiao Quanren as they stared with their eyes wide in disbelief at what was going on.

“Did he just break through the Prison of Heaven and Earth?”

Elder Long was completely caught off guard, for if it were to be him in there, he couldn’t have escaped from that prison receiving no help from outside.

After the first arm broke free, Xiao Luo’s other arm gradually emerged before he tried to rip the prison apart by pulling down its walls.

“d.a.m.n it!”

Tianshan Elder cursed and quickly launched herself into the air. With a series of intricate hand signs, she once again channeled more inner power toward the Prison of Heaven and Earth. Elder Long immediately a.s.sumed his earlier position to a.s.sist the Tianshan Elder.

The Prison of Heaven and Earth was enveloped by a more intense glow this time, but regardless of how bright it became, the energy field could no longer stop Xiao Luo. As the two pale arms continued to rip the prison apart, a visibly wide crack appeared from the top to the bottom of the prison.

“ROAR!”

With a resounding roar, the Prison of Heaven and Earth burst asunder, shattering completely like a gla.s.s box falling to the floor and exploding into countless shards.

“Mmmph!”

Elder Tianshan vomited more blood before losing control and falling out of the sky. Fortunately, Elder Long was on hand to catch her and prevent her from cras.h.i.+ng to the ground.

The Prison of Heaven and Earth was her creation and solely sustained by her inner power. That the prison was an extension of her body meant Tianshan Elder suffered an equal amount of damage now that Xiao Luo had broken it.

But Tianshan Elder ignored her injuries, as her concern now was an even greater threat. She turned in the prison’s direction immediately, fearing the worst—what if it was not Xiao Luo who emerged from the prison but… a monster?

When everyone looked and got an un.o.bstructed view of Xiao Luo, they froze.

What they saw was a human-like monster, nearly three meters tall, with completely white skin, and an extremely muscular body. The long nails on his fingers were sharp and looked like dried, scaly claws. His white hair rose in the air by some strange force, his face twisted into a vicious scowl, and fangs protruded from his evil-looking mouth. But his ominous blood-red eyes stood out conspicuously and he looked every inch a demon lord.

“Is that… Xiao Luo?”

Xiao Quanren gulped down his saliva with much difficulty as he broke out in a cold sweat. How was it impossible that Xiao Clan turned into such a monster?

Gu Qianxue’s eyes widened too, as she could not believe that Xiao Luo had turned into a monster.

“Mon… Monster…”

Gu Qianlin was in abject fright and had already drawn her pistol, but while it could kill an ordinary person easily, it did not provide her with any sense of security.

“Is this the fighting form that fighters from the Xiao Clan a.s.sumed after unlocking their full potential?” Xiao Luo’s transformation dumbfounded Elder Long, as this was the first time he had seen a member of the Xiao Clan in such a form. It was horrifying and looked like an evil creature from h.e.l.l.

“This G.o.dd.a.m.n little brat has turned into an alien monster. Long, this resulted from you lying to me. Now that you have convinced me to unlock his full potential, I shall see if you can tame him!” Elder Tianshan was still bleeding from her mouth as she glared at Elder Long coldly.

“GROWL!”

As she spoke, the human-like monster, Xiao Luo, roared and a b.l.o.o.d.y-thirsty aura emanated from him. He leaped into the air and bounded toward them with a raging intent to kill.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The ground cracked under the weight of his feet and filled the surroundings with his evil and malicious vibrations.

“This little brat has lost it. He is unable to manage this level of immense power!”

Tianshan Elder was in dread as she turned to Elder Long and said, “Long, it’s your time to s.h.i.+ne!”

Elder Long smiled bitterly and advanced on Xiao Luo, instantly delivering a palm strike.

His powerful palm force, able to cause an avalanche, condensed into a pure white energy ball and shot into Xiao Luo like the beam of a laser. Xiao Luo, in full stride, did not bother to dodge, but swept his hand in the direction of the energy ball, sending it flying off to the side. It crashed spectacularly into a mountain peak a few kilometers away.

KABOOM!

A loud explosion followed and the entire mountain, along with thick layers of snow, was wiped out completely.
