Grassroots Travel: The Star Lord of Another World

Chapter 363 Encountering a Strong Enemy Again

Gao Xingchen and Nan Li stood side by side on the top of the mountain, looking at the town in the distance bathed in the sunset, their hearts filled with peace and joy. The haze of war has dissipated, and the light of the Heart of Stars nourishes the land, all things revive, and there is vitality.

"Lier, look, the children are flying kites again." Gao Xingchen pointed at the colorful kites floating in the distant sky, a gentle smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Nan Li followed his gaze, and a hint of warmth appeared on her cold face: "Yes, peace is great."

They held hands and quietly felt the rare tranquility. However, the gears of fate never stopped turning, and a greater crisis was quietly approaching.

"boom!"

A loud noise broke the silence, the sky in the distance suddenly turned blood red, and the wind was howling, as if doomsday was coming.

Gao Xingchen and Nan Li's faces changed. They both felt that a powerful and evil force was awakening.

"Oh no, it's the Fire Cloud Evil God!" Gao Xingchen's face was solemn, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Before he finished speaking, a huge pillar of fire shot up into the sky, piercing the clouds and dyeing the entire sky blood red. In the pillar of fire, a vague figure loomed, emitting a terrifying aura that made people's hearts palpitate.

“Hahaha! Gao Xingchen, Nanli, you didn’t expect that I’m back again!” The voice of Fire Cloud Evil God sounded like it came from the Nine Nether Hell, full of resentment and anger.

Gao Xingchen and Nan Li looked at each other, and saw solemnity in each other's eyes. The voice of the Fire Cloud Evil God was deeper than before, and his aura was even stronger. It was obvious that he had broken through the seal and was even stronger than before.

"Xingchen, be careful, he seems to have become stronger." Nanli reminded in a low voice, already gripping the ice crystal sword tightly in his hand.

"Yeah." Gao Xingchen responded in a deep voice, the power of the stars surging in his body, ready to fight at any time.

The pillar of fire gradually dissipated, and the figure of Huoyun Evil God also appeared clearly in front of them. He was covered in blazing flames, his eyes were blood red, and his face was hideous and terrifying, like a demon crawling out of hell.

"You ants, how dare you seal me! I will make you pay a heavy price!" The Fire Cloud Evil God roared, and flames around his body surged, transforming into countless fire snakes, attacking Gao Xingchen and Nanli in an overwhelming manner.

"Li'er, let's go!" Gao Xingchen's eyes focused, and the power of the stars burst out instantly, turning into a dazzling light, protecting Nan Li behind him.

A war is about to break out!

Gao Xingchen flashed towards the fire snake like a stream of light, wielding the Xinghen Sword in his hand, slashing out dazzling sword rays, cutting off the attacking fire snakes one by one. Nanli, on the other hand, moved swiftly through the sea of fire like an ice elf, the ice crystal sword in his hand turned into streaks of cold light, going straight for the vitals of the Fire Cloud Evil God.

The two men cooperated well and their offensive was continuous like the tide, but the Fire Cloud Evil God seemed to be playing a trick on them. He was able to avoid their attacks at the critical moment every time, with a mocking smile on his face.

“Hahaha, you think you can hurt me with your abilities?” Fire Cloud Evil God laughed wildly, “You ants will never be able to defeat me!”

Gao Xingchen and Nan Li felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. They both felt that the Fire Cloud Evil God was even more powerful than before, and that he knew their moves very well, as if he had expected it.

"Xingchen, be careful, he seems to be very familiar with our moves." Nanli reminded in a low voice while resisting the attack of Fire Cloud Evil God.

Gao Xingchen nodded solemnly, thinking quickly about countermeasures. He knew that this was not a solution, and he had to find the weakness of Fire Cloud Evil God to have a chance to defeat him.

"Lier, let's change our tactics and use star freezing!" Gao Xingchen suddenly said.

Nan Li was slightly stunned, then understood what he meant. Star Freezing was a skill they had created together, which required a large amount of star power and ice crystal power, but it was powerful enough to freeze everything.

The two looked at each other and simultaneously raised their powers to the extreme. Gao Xingchen's body was surrounded by bright starlight, which turned into countless star chains, entwining the Fire Cloud Evil God from all directions. Nan Li formed seals with both hands and muttered something. The temperature around them suddenly dropped, snowflakes fell, and turned into a field of ice and snow, trapping the Fire Cloud Evil God in it.

“Hmph, a mere trifle!” The Fire Cloud Evil God snorted coldly, and flames surged around his body as he tried to break free from the star chains and the ice and snow field.

However, the star chains and the ice and snow field both contain the powerful will and beliefs of both of them. How could they be easily broken free?

The more Huoyun Evil God struggled, the tighter the star chains bound him, the deeper the ice and snow field froze, and his movements gradually became slower.

"Now!" Upon seeing this, Gao Xingchen's eyes flashed, and the Star Mark Sword in his hand turned into a dazzling starlight, piercing straight into the chest of the Fire Cloud Evil God.

"Not good!" Huoyun Evil God's face changed, and he wanted to dodge but it was too late.

"Pfft!"

The Star Mark Sword pierced through the flames and pierced into the chest of the Fire Cloud Evil God, causing blood to splatter.

"Ah!" The Fire Cloud Evil God let out a shrill scream, and the flames on his body suddenly dimmed a little.

"Lier, continue!" Gao Xingchen was overjoyed when he saw this, and swung his sword to attack the Fire Cloud Evil God again.

Nan Li also seized the opportunity, and the ice crystal sword turned into cold light, continuously attacking the vital points of Fire Cloud Evil God.

The Fire Cloud Evil God was severely injured by the two people, and his aura suddenly weakened a lot, but he was a powerful evil god after all, so how could he admit defeat easily?

He roared angrily, and the flames on his body surged again, turning into a pillar of fire that shot up into the sky, trying to break out.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Gao Xingchen and Nan Li chased him relentlessly, pouring out the power of stars and ice crystals without reservation, transforming into starlight and ice and snow all over the sky, surrounding the Fire Cloud Evil God.

Just then, an accident happened!

The Fire Cloud Evil God suddenly turned around and spat out a mouthful of blood towards Nanli.

"Li'er!" Gao Xingchen was shocked when he saw this.

Nan Li was unable to dodge and was hit in the chest by the essence and blood. He groaned and flew backwards.

"Li'er!" Gao Xingchen was extremely anxious. He quickly flew over to catch Nan Li and asked with concern, "How are you?"

Nan Li's face was pale, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He shook his head and said weakly: "I'm fine, be careful, he..."

Before he could finish his words, Nan Li fell into coma.

"Li'er!" Gao Xingchen was filled with worry and anger, and looked at the Fire Cloud Evil God with cold eyes, full of murderous intent. Gao Xingchen felt a surge of hot blood rushing to his head, and his eyes instantly turned red. Nan Li was weak in his arms, and this scene deeply hurt his heart. He knew that the blood of the Fire Cloud Evil God contained a deadly poison, and at this moment he had to heal Nan Li as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Li'er, hold on, I will definitely save you!" Gao Xingchen gently put Nan Li on the ground, his eyes full of self-blame and regret. He mobilized the star power in his body and continuously injected it into Nan Li's body, trying to suppress the violent evil fire.

When Huoyun Evil God saw Gao Xingchen was distracted, a sly light flashed in his eyes. He laughed wildly and said, "Hahaha, kid, you should worry about yourself!"

Before he finished speaking, Huoyun Evil God turned into a beam of fire and rushed towards Gao Xingchen at lightning speed. In his hand, a huge flaming sword condensed, and with the momentum of destroying the world, he fiercely chopped at Gao Xingchen.

Gao Xingchen's heart trembled, and he knew he had to make a choice. Should he fight to the death, or sacrifice himself to protect Nan Li?

In a flash, Gao Xingchen made a decision. He took a deep breath and pushed the star power in his body to the extreme. Dazzling starlight burst out from his body, forming a huge translucent shield around him and Nan Li.

The flaming giant sword slammed fiercely on the shield, making a deafening sound. The shield trembled violently, as if it would break at any time.

Gao Xingchen groaned, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He clenched his teeth and held the shield tightly, not letting it loosen at all. He knew that this was the last barrier between him and Nan Li. Once it was broken, the consequences would be disastrous.

“Hahaha, kid, is this all you have?” Seeing Gao Xingchen in such a state of disgrace, Fire Cloud Evil God became even more proud and arrogant, “Today, both of you must die!”

After that, Huoyun Evil God swung the flaming giant sword again and attacked the shield frantically. Every attack dimmed the light of the shield and Gao Xingchen's face turned paler.

Gao Xingchen knew that this was not a solution, and he had to find a chance to fight back. He endured the severe pain in his body and stared at Huoyun Evil God, trying to find his flaws.

Finally, in a fierce collision, Gao Xingchen caught a glimpse of opportunity. The Fire Cloud Evil God revealed a slight flaw during his attack.

Gao Xingchen was delighted, and he mobilized the remaining star power in his body without hesitation, concentrating it on his right hand. The starlight gathered to form a dazzling beam of light, which shot directly into the chest of Fire Cloud Evil God.

"Not good!" Huoyun Evil God's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that Gao Xingchen could launch such a fierce counterattack in such a desperate situation.

When Huoyun Evil God saw Gao Xingchen was alone, his eyes became even more fierce, like a bloodthirsty beast staring at its prey. He laughed wildly and said, "Boy, do you think that you can block my attack with just your broken shield? Wishful thinking!"

After that, Huoyun Evil God formed seals with his hands, and the flames around him surged, turning into fire dragons, roaring and rushing towards Gao Xingchen. Under this violent attack, the shield trembled violently, and the light became dimmer, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

Gao Xingchen's face was solemn, his teeth were clenched, and he desperately mobilized every bit of star power in his body to maintain the stability of the shield. He knew that once the shield was broken, he and Nan Li would be powerless to resist and would be slaughtered by the Fire Cloud Evil God.

The fire dragon roared and hit the shield again and again. Every impact made Gao Xingchen's blood surge, but he gritted his teeth and insisted, refusing to retreat. His eyes were firm and resolute. In order to protect the woman he loved, he was willing to pay any price!

At the critical moment when the shield was about to break, Gao Xingchen suddenly keenly caught a slight flaw in the attack of Huoyun Evil God. It was a moment of stagnation in the chest of Huoyun Evil God when he was mobilizing his strength.

The opportunity was fleeting, and Gao Xingchen did not hesitate at all. He decisively mobilized all the remaining star power in his body, condensed it on his right hand, and transformed it into a dazzling beam of light. With lightning speed, it shot straight into the chest of Fire Cloud Evil God!

"Not good!" Huoyun Evil God's face changed drastically. He obviously didn't expect Gao Xingchen to launch such a fierce counterattack in such a desperate situation. In a hurry, he could only twist his body forcefully to try to avoid this fatal blow.

However, Gao Xingchen's attack speed was too fast, and Huoyun Evil God was in the gap between attacks, so he had no time to dodge completely. With a muffled "puff" sound, the beam of light brushed Huoyun Evil God's shoulder, leaving a deep scar on his chest that could be seen to the bone.

Although Gao Xingchen's counterattack hit the flaw of Fire Cloud Evil God, the powerful strength of Fire Cloud Evil God meant that this attack did not cause fatal damage...
