At this moment, in his line of sight, Tan Yun, towering at ten thousand feet and covered in scars, had a massive sphere of light appearing above his head.
The brilliance radiating from the sphere illuminated the surroundings, casting a warm glow on everything nearby.
Bai Rongsheng's heart raced as he realized the situation was critical.
If Tan Yun could truly harness the power of the Source of Light, then the tide of battle might turn in their favor!
However, he couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding, knowing that such power often came with a hefty price.
As the light intensified, Tan Yun began to gather his strength, drawing upon the energy within the sphere to mend his wounds.
The scars on his body started to heal, and soon, he was enveloped in a radiant aura that exuded both strength and determination.
Bai Rongsheng clenched his fists, his faith in Tan Yun growing stronger.
If they could conquer the challenges ahead, their hopes for victory would become a reality.
The battlefield around them seemed to quiet down, as if even the chaos recognized the awakening of a formidable force.
With renewed vigor, Tan Yun readied himself to face whatever trials lay ahead, determined to protect his comrades and claim victory for their cause.
Then, the scene he was most worried about truly unfolded before his eyes.
He saw the Source of Light shatter, and a rich liquid of life enveloped Tan Yun. In the blink of an eye, Tan Yun's severely injured body miraculously returned to its former state.
Holding the primordial chaos god-slaying sword, Tan Yun looked at Bai Rongsheng in the Primordial Void and said coldly, "Bai Rongsheng, since you dared to disrespect my fiancée just now, I guarantee you will die a terrible death later!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Rongsheng knew that facing Tan Yun and Xuan Yuan Rou meant certain death for him. He steeled his heart, "Come on! Even if I die today, I will drag you down with me!"
"Weng Weng—"
The void rippled like water, and ethereal flames ignited on Bai Rongsheng's head, burning the saint king soul to enhance his strength!
"What should we do, Tan Yun?" Xuan Yuan Rou's expression was serious. "Should we burn the great sacred soul too?"
Tan Yun smiled slightly and transmitted his voice, "My little fool, I don't want you to suffer the pain of burning the great sacred soul."
"Think about it, self-immolation of the saint king soul is like an arrow with no return. If he interrupts it, he will suffer severe backlash; if he doesn’t, at most he can last an hour."
"After an hour, he too will face backlash, at which point, killing him will be as easy as pie!"
"And right now, we just need to control the Divine Vessel and evade him. We could probably drive him to death from sheer anger."
After hearing this, Xuan Yuan Rou smiled, "I can’t believe I forgot about that."
"You two, prepare for death!" Bai Rongsheng, suffering from the pain of self-immolation of the saint king soul, looked as fierce as a ghost.
He still held onto a shred of hope for survival, thinking that perhaps after burning his saint king soul, he could still kill Tan Yun and the others, thus ensuring his own survival!
"Prepare for death?" Tan Yun suddenly laughed, looking at Bai Rongsheng as if he were a fool. "To be honest, what I want to see the most is you self-immolating your saint king soul."
"Do you think burning your saint king soul can kill us? Hahaha, I can responsibly tell you that not only can you not, but you are digging your own grave instead."
"Utter nonsense!" Bai Rongsheng brandished the Divine Sword and charged angrily towards Tan Yun and the others.
Just as he was about to strike them, Tan Yun's figure suddenly shrank to a normal height, summoned the Supreme Human Sovereign Divine Vessel, and took Xuan Yuan Rou to soar onto the vessel, flying away in the blink of an eye to a distance of a hundred thousand zhang.
Seeing this scene, Bai Rongsheng felt an ominous premonition rising within him!
At this moment, he finally understood why Tan Yun said that self-immolating his saint king soul was digging his own grave!
