The Melee Begins
Even for Five-star Dou Sheng, the idea of defeating a Four-star Dou Sheng with a clone is nothing but a pipe dream.
However, since Hun Miesheng dared to come in an avatar, he must have his own methods...
In the blink of an eye, the Soul Hall Master and Gu Nan Hai had already exchanged blows several times. Although it seemed that Gu Nan Hai had gained a slight advantage, the Hun Miesheng clone showed no sign of being in a hurry.
With another palm strike, Gu Nan Hai forced Hun Miesheng back. His expression grave as he looked at his opponent. "Something seems off..."
The Soul Clan possesses numerous secret techniques. Over the millennia of battles between the two clans, many members of the Gu Clan have perished due to the Soul Clan's endless stream of bizarre and mysterious techniques.
Seeing Hun Miesheng at this moment, Gu Nan Hai dared not be negligent, and quickly formed hand seals in front of his chest...
Imperial Seal Art!
Five seals stacked on top of each other!
The Imperial Seal Art consists of five forms: Mountain Opening Seal, Sea Flipping Seal, Earth Covering Seal, Heaven Annihilating Seal Ancient Emperor Seal. Each seal is interconnected. Grand Completion all five seals grants the power to overturn rivers and seas, and devour the heavens and earth!
With the power of Dou Sheng, Gu Nan Hai activated the five seals, and the power he unleashed was comparable to a Heaven Tier Dou Technique.
The moment that tiny, crystalline seal took shape on his chest, the entire Void Space trembled. Spatial cracks, as thick as an arm, rippled in all directions, and wherever the seal passed, the void collapsed...
"Go!"
Gu Nan Hai changed his hand seal and suddenly pointed his finger at the Soul Hall Master in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yin crossed a hundred meters of space and instantly appeared in front of Hun Miesheng.
The attack came extremely suddenly; even with the composure of the Soul Hall Master, a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes...
But in the next instant, the pitch-black Dou Qi on his body surface condensed almost reflexively, quickly transforming into a black shield that looked almost tangible in front of his chest.
However, he had clearly underestimated the power of the Imperial Seal Art. The black shield was completely ineffective against the small seal, crumbling instantly and pointing directly at Hun Miesheng's chest...
This scene greatly surprised many powerful figures from the Soul Hall side in the distance.
Especially when the small seal took shape, everyone felt a threat of death from the bottom of their hearts.
"Oh no... Could the Soul Hall Master have been defeated just like that?"
At this moment, the powerful figures from Central Plains who had come with their own purposes all began to feel apprehensive.
"Bang!"
A deep yet loud explosion rang out in the sky, and the terrifying shockwave that spread outwards caused some Dou Sheng Expert to change their expressions drastically and hastily retreat, fearing that they might be touched in the slightest.
"Hit..."
Upon seeing this, Gu Hua, Huo Zhi, and the others were slightly delighted. Such a powerful attack would likely have been devastating even for the Soul Hall Master.
Only Gu Nan Hai's gaze was fixed on the tear in space in the sky, his brows furrowed.
Within that shattered space and black mist, a figure stood clearly, without moving an inch...
"As expected, the Imperial Seal Art alone is not enough to defeat this Soul Hall Master's avatar..."
Gu Nan Hai shook his head with some regret.
Just then, an extremely strange suction force suddenly swept out, overwhelming everything...
The residual Dou Qi that permeated the area was actually drawn away in the opposite direction, and finally, to everyone's disbelief, it all rushed into the body of the figure who was slowly walking out.
"He actually swallowed that terrifying Dou Technique? How is that possible!"
Hun Miesheng's actions clearly shocked everyone present.
Even many of the powerful figures in the Soul Hall were unaware that their Palace Master had acquired such terrifying and bizarre abilities.
"You... what kind of ability is this?"
Gu Nan Hai stared at all of this in disbelief.
Although he had already guessed that his Imperial Seal Art wouldn't be able to defeat his opponent, this sudden move truly shocked him...
You could argue that whether you dodged or blocked the attack, it would be acceptable... but to simply absorb the attack is a bit abnormal, isn't it?
So how am I supposed to fight next?
Hun Miesheng was clearly satisfied with the reactions of the people before him, and smiled, "What? Is it hard to believe?"
"Since I dared to send a clone, do you think I wouldn't have guessed you were in cahoots? Since I knew that, and yet I still came, then you should understand that you cannot escape the clutches of the Soul Hall..."
A strange, eerie smile played on his lips as Hun Miesheng gazed at Gu Nan Hai, whose brows were furrowed. Within his eyes, wisps of black flame, radiating a sinister, devouring power, seeped out...
At the same time, the energy in the surrounding world surged violently, and was then continuously drawn into its body, where it was completely devoured by that strange power.
Upon seeing this scene, Elder Huo Yao of the Yan Clan immediately realized something and exclaimed in astonishment, "This is... the Nihility Devouring Flame!"
"Second on the Heavenly Flame Ranking... Nihility Devouring Flame?"
The moment Huo Yao uttered those words, it was as if a storm was raging in the hearts of everyone present!
The Nihility Devouring Flame is the second-ranked Heavenly Flames on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, even stronger than the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.
This Heavenly Flames is even more mysterious than the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame!
At least, news of the descent of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame had appeared on the continent more than once, and the name of the Demon Sage Jinglian had circulated for thousands of years.
But so far, it seems that even the Eight Ancient Clans have not received any information about this Nihility Devouring Flame!
Just think about how everyone here fought tooth and nail over a single fragment of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame Fragment Map. Now, a Heavenly Flames, even more powerful than the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, has suddenly appeared before them. The shock they felt was unimaginable!
"No wonder this guy dared to come with an avatar; he actually obtained such terrifying flames!"
Huo Yao came to Gu Nan Hai's side, and the two faced Hun Miesheng together.
"But don't worry, since the opponent is an avatar, the Nihility Devouring Flame on his body can't be the original flame. It's very likely that he's just using the power of the Nihility Devouring Flame. Let's join forces and take him down quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Nan Hai realized what was happening, nodded, and agreed to Huo Yao's suggestion.
Only...
"Heh heh, do you think my Soul Hall is all alone? You want to gang up on us? You'll have to see if we agree!"
At this moment, the deputy hall master of the Soul Hall also stepped forward, leading a group of Dou Sheng behind him, and they all pressed forward.
Seeing this, Huo Yao frowned and said to Lei Lie and Yao Wan Gui, "You two hold them off for now. Once we've dealt with Hun Miesheng together, we'll deal with these bastards!"
Although the opposing force was large, their strength varied greatly. Facing Lei Lie and Yao Wan Gui, both Four-star Dou Sheng, they could at most stall each other for a while.
