Swallowing the Fire Seed

However, Yi Yun completely ignored Danxin Old Ancestor's rage. He was a man who always sought revenge. From the very beginning, when Ling Xie'er's power was devoured, he wanted to get it back. Now, with the great formation in turmoil, and Ling Xie'er being too weak to have enough power, taking the fire seeds of others would be just the right thing to do to restore her strength.

"Yi Yun, what are you doing!"

At this moment, the High Priest was also enraged. Seeing that the great formation was about to collapse, Yi Yun actually engaged in internal strife at this critical moment, devouring the ancestor's fire seed.

Yi Yun said loudly, "High Priest, my fire seed had its power devoured by these fire seeds, but they didn't know how to use it and were just wasting it. Now I'm having Xie'er retrieve the power so that we might be able to subdue this great formation."

Yi Yun's words fueled the High Priest's anger even more. The continued loss of control over the formation had already disappointed the High Priest greatly in Yi Yun, and now that he was spouting such arrogant words, how could the High Priest possibly believe him?

At this moment, Ling Xie'er was still absorbing the power of the Danxin Old Ancestor's fire seed. The enraged Danxin Old Ancestor could no longer care about anything else. He reached out and grabbed, conjuring a huge poisonous claw in the air, carrying the fury of thunder, and it descended upon Yi Yun!

"You little brat, you're asking for it!"

This poisonous claw has been soaked in various poisons by the Danxin Old Ancestor for a long time. It can directly damage the dantian, enter the meridians, and invade the limbs and bones. It wants to directly smash Yi Yun's dantian!

Seeing this, the Old Man Black Stone was greatly shocked, but the High Priest beside him did not make a move. In the High Priest's view, this matter was entirely Yi Yun's fault. While repairing the great formation, he even tried to devour the seed of the Danxin Old Ancestor, which was simply lawless.

"Stop!"

The Old Man Black Stone unleashed a palm strike, his attack measured and controlled. This strike wasn't a killing move, but rather a pursuit of absolute speed, given that he was on the small island shrouded by the great formation, too far from Danxin Old Ancestor Yi Yun.

The Danxin Old Ancestor's attack was too sudden. He had long harbored resentment towards Yi Yun, and now all of this accumulated resentment had completely erupted, igniting his murderous intent. With this palm strike, he sealed off the void in all directions, intending to cripple Yi Yun's cultivation!

Since it devoured someone's fire seed, its cultivation was crippled, and no one could argue against that!

A ferocious look appeared on Danxin Old Ancestor's face. His claw had already flown in front of Yi Yun. Facing Danxin Old Ancestor's giant green claw, Yi Yun retreated rapidly.

However, Danxin Old Ancestor was even faster. With a grab of his hand, the already sealed void became like a cage, completely enveloping Yi Yun inside!

"Trying to stall until Blackrock rescues you? Too late!"

Danxin Old Ancestor sneered, and his Yuan Qi transmission reached Yi Yun's ears directly. But at that moment, a bright blue sword appeared in Yi Yun's hand.

His expression changed in that instant, becoming incredibly focused. At that moment, Yi Yun seemed to be completely isolated from the world, devoid of self and emptiness; his eyes were fixed solely on the sword.

Crackle!

Yi Yun's muscles and joints cracked and popped, and his physical strength soared, as if at that moment, an ancient Giant Beast had awakened within Yi Yun.

"What? He's going to take Danxin Old Ancestor's claw attack head-on?"

The Old Man Black Stone had not yet entered the battlefield, was greatly alarmed. The Nine Li Witch Maiden also widened her beautiful eyes. With her strength, she could not see what was happening on the battlefield. She could only see that Yi Yun's whole body was bursting with golden light and a phantom of an ancient totem appeared behind him.

"Nine Forms of Kanglong - Golden Scales!"

Sizzle!

A dazzling Sword Light, seemingly descending from the heavens, pierced through space and stabbed towards the poisonous claw.

At that moment, almost everyone's vision seemed to be filled by that single Sword Light.

Disciples with lower cultivation levels even felt a stinging sensation in their eyes, almost blinding them. If just one glance could cause such pain, one can imagine how sharp this Sword Light was.

A single sword cleaves the heavens; this Sword Light is not only sharp, but most importantly, it contains unparalleled power, as if the world itself were collapsing!

The sword pierced the palm of the poisonous claw fiercely, and the violent collision transformed into an endless energy storm that swept in.

"Boom!!"

With a deafening roar, the poisonous claw exploded in mid-air.

At this moment, even with the dazzling Sword Light, everyone stared wide-eyed at what was happening. They were all incredibly shocked; Yi Yun had actually withstood a claw attack from the Danxin Old Ancestor!?

At this moment, the disintegrating poisonous claws transformed into a cloud of poisonous smoke, spreading outwards. The spatial cage remained intact, and this poisonous smoke contained the power of laws, like the World-Ending Smoke, threatening to permeate the space and invade Yi Yun's body.

As Yi Yun sheathed his Longsword, a thunderous sound suddenly resounded from within his body. He took a deep breath, his chest and abdomen rapidly expanding. Under the operation of the <Dragon Emperor Art>, his qi and blood power converged to a high degree, reaching its peak. Then, Yi Yun let out a roar!

Hold head high--!

A soaring Dragon Roar erupted from Yi Yun's dantian, indiscriminately bombarding all directions!

The Kanglong True Word!!

By activating the Dragon Emperor Bloodline within his body and roaring out a true incantation, this single roar can directly shatter a martial artist's meridians and kill them alive!

Yi Yun's roar erupted like a storm, instantly blasting away all the poisonous smoke!

Yi Yun's body was forced back. The battle, in which he suddenly unleashed all his life potential and used the <Dragon Emperor Art>, left Yi Yun feeling extremely exhausted, and his meridians could hardly hold on.

However, seeing that he had actually withstood an attack from the Danxin Old Ancestor still gave Yi Yun a feeling of exhilaration.

At this moment, Danxin Old Ancestor had not yet withdrawn his palm. He was just staring blankly at Yi Yun, even forgetting the attack that followed. He felt that what had just happened was too absurd, as if he were dreaming.

Yi Yun... he actually took one of my claws?

Although he only casually unleashed this claw strike, Yi Yun seemed to have gone all out, it still left Danxin Old Ancestor in disbelief. He was a Divine Lord, while Yi Yun was merely a newly ascended Venerable, his foundation unstable. How could he, with Venerable strength, block a Divine Lord's attack?

Not only Black Stone Ancestor, but everyone was silent in shock. No one spoke, only the sound of raging flames erupting.

Yi Yun has only been in seclusion for a few years. Even with the effects of the Oblivion River Water, he couldn't possibly be this strong. It's completely mind-blowing.

At this moment, in the core space, Ling Xie'er took this opportunity to completely absorb the green flame in her hand and digest it into her body.

Ling Xie'er's mental strength was so powerful that the Divine Seal left in the green flame was directly burned away by Ling Xie'er's Evil God's Fire, completely erasing it.

"Puff!"

The Danxin Old Ancestor's face suddenly turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood. His eyes were filled with shock, despair, and anger.

His life-giving flame was swallowed up!

Ling Xie'er actually devoured his fire seed in just a few breaths.

"Aaaaaah!"

With a roar, the Danxin Old Ancestor unleashed his full energy, tearing his clothes apart as he prepared to kill Yi Yun with all his might to avenge this grudge!

But at that very moment, he felt a chilling killing intent coming from behind.

"I've said it before, anyone who wants to kill Yi Yun is my enemy. Don't forget, this is my Nine Li Witch Kingdom."

The Old Man Black Stone appeared behind the Danxin Old Ancestor like a ghost. If he hadn't stopped halfway, he would have severely injured the Danxin Old Ancestor.

"You!"

The Danxin Old Ancestor abruptly turned his head to look at the Old Man Black Stone. This was outrageous! Utterly outrageous!!

His flame was swallowed, and his eyes were bloodshot with rage, but the Old Man Black Stone still protected Yi Yun, completely ignoring the fact that his flame had been swallowed!

Facing the gaze of the Danxin Old Ancestor, the Old Man Black Stone slowly said, "You said Yi Yun devoured your fire seed... You were also devouring Yi Yun's fire seed before, and the High Priest didn't stop you. Now that your fire seed has been devoured, it's only natural. Do you expect me to uphold justice for you? In fact, you devoured Yi Yun's fire seed for at least a quarter of an hour, while Yi Yun devoured yours in less than ten breaths. You didn't suffer a loss."

Upon hearing Old Man Black Stone's words, Danxin Old Ancestor was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode.

Not at a loss?

He devoured Yi Yun's fire seed for a quarter of an hour, but only absorbed a tiny bit. Meanwhile, Yi Yun devoured his fire seed in just a few breaths, completely consuming it and even damaging his own Divine Soul. How could the Old Man Black Stone utter such words? It's too domineering and shameless!
