Chapter 249: Fighting Four Honored Elders
The black-clad old man was surrounded by an earth-yellow radiance and stood atop the stone dragon's immense skull, emanating a heavy and imposing pressure.
But the old man, together with the entire stone dragon beneath him, seemed to be seized by an invisible force, struggling as they were pulled up from the ground toward the sky.
The black-clad old man's expression immediately changed. He had intended to conceal himself beneath the ground and launch a sneak attack on Li Musheng on the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion's roof.
But what he had not anticipated was that even after merging his form with the earth to conceal himself, Li Musheng had still detected him.
This left him both greatly surprised and wary, and he realized that someone capable of defeating his Martial Brother Scarlet Fire was clearly no ordinary figure.
In that instant, the black-clad old man struck with even greater caution, and spared nothing.
In the next moment, he drove his feet down hard into the stone dragon's skull. Heaven and earth around him thundered like war drums, and from the cracked stone street furrow below, row after row of black rock ridges shot upward, writhing like underground dragons surfacing.
Then they coiled upward and attached to the stone dragon's enormous rising body, as though drawing on the power of the earth itself to wrestle against Li Musheng's seizing force from above.
At the same time, bricks and wall stone from the surrounding buildings continuously collapsed, broke apart, and reformed, rapidly condensing in midair into hundreds of stone spears all pointing toward the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion's roof.
