Armor: Shura appears at the beginning

Chapter 271 Reclaiming the Armor

Li Xinnan's gaze was slightly focused, unmoved, just immersed in every subtle sound around him.

Suddenly, the sound of air being torn was heard. He reacted quickly and defended with his backhand, his movements smooth and flowing.

In an instant, the edge of the flaming knife flashed by, and sparks bloomed brilliantly on his arm guard, leaving a string of sparks.

Li Xinnan couldn't help but snort, and quickly protected his arms with his hands, retreating repeatedly. It was obvious that he had suffered a great impact.

Zhang Jian took advantage of the situation, a sneer appeared on his lips, and his figure disappeared from sight in an instant like a ghost, leaving his opponent no room to breathe or counterattack.

Faced with this sudden disadvantage, Li Xinnan's eyes deepened. He knew very well that at this moment he was like a blind man touching an elephant, and it was difficult to catch Zhang Jian's trace.

He lowered his voice, with a hint of urgency in his tone: "Zhang Jian, time is running out. A meaningless fight will only speed up the consumption of both sides."

"If you continue like this, your strength and will will be worn out!" He tried to convince others with reason, but his anxiety could not be concealed in his words.

However, Zhang Jian responded with an even louder laugh. His voice echoed in the surroundings, full of disdain and ridicule: "Oh? Are you worried about me? Or is this just an excuse for you to comfort yourself?"

"If you really think I'm going to die soon, then let's have a real fight!" Zhang Jian challenged.

"Let time be our witness and see whether your patience will run out first or the fire of my life will go out first!"

Zhang Jian's words were full of confidence and provocation. Obviously, he did not take Li Xinnan's warning to heart.

"Ridiculous! My original intention was to save you from suffering!" Li Xinnan roared angrily, his voice full of sincerity and eagerness.

However, Zhang Jian just smiled contemptuously, and responded with full of doubt: "Save me? Humph, it's really ridiculous to hear such words coming out of your mouth!"

"Do you think I will believe your lies? You are clearly trying to lure me out so that you can take advantage of the opportunity to attack me!" Zhang Jian's sarcasm was like a sharp blade, piercing Li Xinnan's heart. As soon as he finished speaking, he appeared behind Li Xinnan like a ghost, and punched him with the force of wind and thunder.

Li Xinnan was caught off guard and could only take the heavy punch headlong, his body staggering forward due to the huge impact. Before the pain subsided, Zhang Jian's attack arrived, with a fierce kick directly hitting his waist.

At this critical moment, a trace of determination flashed in Li Xinnan's eyes. He gritted his teeth and endured the heavy blow. At the same time, with amazing willpower and keen intuition, he grabbed Zhang Jian's leg.

"You have nowhere to escape!" Li Xinnan sneered. Although his voice was cold, it could not hide his determination and confidence.

However, Zhang Jian seemed to have anticipated all this. He laughed mockingly again: "Are you sure you really caught me?"

Before he finished his words, a ball of blazing flame condensed and formed on Zhang Jian's fist, turning into a flaming fist that whistled towards Li Xinnan.

Li Xinnan's heart was filled with alarm, and he immediately realized that danger was approaching. He let go of Zhang Jian's legs without hesitation, retreated rapidly, and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.

Zhang Jian's punch missed, but he did not stop. Instead, he turned into a shadow again and disappeared into the surrounding environment in an instant, as if he had never existed.

The only sound left in the air was Li Xinnan's heavy breathing and his eyes that flashed with determination. He knew very well that this battle had just begun...

......

Li Xinnan took a deep breath, closed his eyes and concentrated, letting his mind resonate with everything around him, trying to capture the elusive figure of Zhang Jian.

In this moment of tranquility, an inexplicable sadness surged like a tide, making his heart tighten. He quickly opened his eyes, caught a subtle breath fluctuation, raised his hand without hesitation, and accurately intercepted Zhang Jian's sudden attack.

"You...how did you find me?" Zhang Jian's voice was filled with surprise. He had never expected that Li Xinnan could be so sensitive to his location.

Li Xinnan clenched the opponent's fist, his eyes were sharp, and he replied in a deep voice: "Don't you feel it? The Flame Dragon Armor is wailing, it is telling of unknown pain and anger." His voice was full of power, as if it could penetrate all hypocrisy and disguise and hit people's hearts.

"Hmph, it's just a lifeless equipment, and you actually gave it emotions?" Zhang Jian sneered, obviously sneering at Li Xinnan's statement.

He struggled violently, trying to break free from Li Xinnan's restraints, and at the same time punched again, attempting to break the deadlock with a stronger attack.

"boom!"

With Li Xinnan's angry shout, he swung his hand violently, knocking Zhang Jian's fist aside, while his other hand tightly grasped Zhang Jian's wrist like an iron clamp.

Zhang Jian's face turned ferocious in an instant. He struggled desperately, trying to break free from Li Xinnan's restraints, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not shake Li Xinnan at all.

"You've gone too far!" Li Xinnan's roar echoed in the air. He gathered all his strength and punched Zhang Jian hard in the chest.

The attack was so powerful that it blasted Zhang Jian out of the black area and he fell heavily to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

"Ah!" Zhang Jian screamed in pain, and his armor was automatically removed at this moment, revealing his exhausted body. He struggled to stand up, but the pain in his body made him unable to move.

Li Xinnan rode on the Flame Dragon Horse and turned into a dazzling red light. He quickly escaped from the black area and landed steadily in front of Zhang Jian.

He stared at Zhang Jian with a sharp gaze, his tone full of seriousness and earnestness: "Zhang Jian, having power does not mean you can do whatever you want. Power is responsibility and protection, not a tool to satisfy personal desires."

Zhang Jian was panting, his eyes showing both unwillingness and confusion. Li Xinnan felt the joy of the Flame Dragon Armor in his body, and the wailing sound from before seemed to have never existed.

"If you want to be respected, you must use this power to protect others." Li Xinnan continued.

“The truly strong are not those who can act recklessly, but those who can stand up at critical moments and protect the innocent and justice.”

"I don't need your teaching at all!" Zhang Jian roared, his eyes flashing with anger and confusion, his face flushed with emotion, his hands clenched into fists, as if he was experiencing unspeakable torment.

"This power is eroding me! Make it stop, make it stop quickly!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, the pain in his chest spreading uncontrollably throughout his body like a burning fire.

Facing Zhang Jian's roar and painful struggle, Li Xinnan frowned. He tried to understand and comfort Zhang Jian, but it was obvious that the situation had exceeded his expectations.

"Zhang Jian, what happened to you?" Li Xinnan shouted anxiously, taking a step forward to get closer to Zhang Jian. However, Zhang Jian's pain seemed to have reached its limit, and his eyes were full of despair and madness.

"Stop! Stop!" Zhang Jian's roar echoed in the air, but the power from his body seemed to have lost control and was raging wildly.

Li Xinnan could clearly feel the terror and danger of that power. It was a scarlet flame that he had never seen before and seemed to be able to devour everything.

Just as Li Xinnan was about to try to rescue him again, the red flame suddenly erupted inside Zhang Jian's body.

The flames were so fierce that they covered Zhang Jian's entire body in an instant, completely devouring him. Li Xinnan's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.

"Zhang Jian!" Li Xinnan yelled, but his outstretched hand could only touch nothingness. The flames erupted so quickly and violently that Zhang Jian was completely reduced to ash in an instant.

Only a slight smell of burning and lingering embers of fire remained in the air, as if telling of the sudden disaster that had just happened.

Li Xinnan stood there in shock and grief. He couldn't understand why things had developed to this point, and couldn't accept that Zhang Jian had disappeared without a trace in front of him.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.

......

"Damn it! If that kid can hold on a little longer, with the help of this burst of energy, the Flame Dragon Armor will no longer exist!"

Emu's face was so gloomy that water seemed to drip from it. He had never expected that even with the help of the power of the Black Domain, Zhang Jian was still so fragile.

The corners of his mouth twitched, as if he had swallowed a bitter pill, and finally spat out fiercely: "Forget it, let's stop here today, retreat!"

"Just leave when you say so?" Upon hearing that, Xizhao curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, his eyes full of disdain.

Emu and Ejin exchanged a meaningful look, and then the two of them suddenly jumped up, like two black lightning bolts, and rushed straight towards Xizhao!

Xi Zhao did not retreat at all. His muscles were tense and an unyielding fighting spirit was boiling in his body. He also rushed forward with the force of thunder and lightning!

The two sides collided with a deafening roar. Evil Gold and Evil Wood joined forces and fought Xi Zhao to a standstill, neither of them giving in.
