Chapter 1340 Mutual Destruction
The mention of Josephine made Jared’s face turn purple from rage. “I’m going to kill you!” Jared yelled. He then took a deep breath and unleashed the golden light from his body.
The wounds on Jared’s body healed at a rapid rate before a beam of light flickered to life on his chest. As Jared slowly lifted his hands, a golden dragon appeared and hovered above him.
“Sacred Light Fist!” Jared bellowed. The golden dragon let out a beastly roar before rushing toward Zion. However, there was no trace of fear on Zion’s face as the dragon approached him. With a swift punch, Zion dissipated the golden dragon.
Then, Zion strode over with a scowl on his face. “I’m not going to keep playing this game with you anymore. Go to hell!”
Jared paled. Not daring to waste a single second, he quickly shot out a fist.
Boom! came the explosive sound.
Zion had gathered all of his martial energy into that hit, planning to end Jared’s life with that strike.
Something snapped in Jared’s arm, and he flew backward. However, he hit something in midair and ended up crashing to the ground.
Jared’s arm had been fractured, and the aura in his body was thrown into disarray, beginning to course to various random spots. At the same time, he kept retching up blood.
By then, Jared could barely see the scene in front of him clearly. Even his consciousness was hazy.
“No, I can’t die… I can’t!”
Jared promptly bit the tip of his tongue to sober himself up.
With much difficulty, he clambered to his feet. Zion was a little surprised by how Jared still managed to stand up.
As Jared stared at Zion, he muttered, “It seems like I’ll have to bring you to hell with me.”
With that said, he closed his eyes and mumbled under his breath.
Soon, Jared’s wilting aura intensified again.
Moreover, the dim golden glow around him became radiant as well.
“He’s burning up his blood essence?”
Zion could see that Jared was going for a last-ditch effort by burning his blood essence.
In the next moment, Jared lifted his palm, and the golden glow around his body began condensing into a glowing orb in his palm.
The glowing orb released waves of heat that spread in all directions. Then, the trees around them started to wilt as if their moisture had been sucked out of them.
Zion could not help but furrow his brows when he observed that. The alarm bells in his head were starting to go off.
He never thought that Jared’s last attempt to fight back would be of this intensity.
Thus, Zion quickly amped up his own aura before somberly looking at Jared.
Both parties knew that the next attack would be the last blow, so they were putting in all of their might.
The glowing orb in Jared’s palm grew bigger and bigger until its radiance seemed to be swallowing up everything around it.
In the next second, Jared’s eyes flew open. With an angry cry, he threw the glowing orb at Zion to the best of his ability.
The rolling heat waves almost baked the people alive, and the Heavenly Net around them shattered and vanished.
In the meantime, Zion was protected by a layer of faint purple light.
Boom!
The glowing orb exploded, and no one could open their eyes due to its blinding light. Like the explosion of a bomb, its heat waves sent everyone flying away from it.
Slowly, the shockwaves faded, and a huge crater appeared on the ground. The purple barrier around Zion shattered at that moment, and he was sent airborne as well.
By the time he rose to his feet again, he was far from his earlier unmarred state. Moreover, the three subordinates he had brought along were bleeding from their orifices. Their faces were sunken in and dried up. They had been roasted alive.
