Slaying Thunder Venerable

"Dou Zun!?"

In the sky, Thunder Venerable looked at Xiao Yuan Xiao Yuan, whose strength had surged dramatically and who had easily annihilated Fei Tian's clone, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Even the Valley Master of Burning Flame Valley could only rely on the continuous eruption of three kinds of flames to deal with Dou Zun with the strength of Five Star Dou Zong.

But what makes Xiao Yuan so special? He only unleashed a burst of a Heavenly Flames just now! Yet he was able to raise his strength from Three Star Dou Zong to the Dou Zun Realm. What's even more outrageous is that this kid can also use Dou Zun- level Space Power so skillfully!

"It's too late to regret it now."

Wind Venerable flashed, blocking Thunder Venerable's path to the rescue.

"Don't rush, let's take another look."

Wind Venerable said with a smile.

"Feng Xian, you'd better get out of my way. The Northern Region is the territory of my Wind and Thunder Pavilion. Don't push things too far!"

Unable to break through Wind Venerable's obstruction, Thunder Venerable roared in anger.

"You brought Fei Tian along, aren't you just trying to push things to the extreme?"

Wind Venerable smiled indifferently, his eyes full of mockery.

"You"

Upon hearing this, Thunder Venerable's expression froze. Wind Venerable was right. He had thought that if Fei Tian went all out, dealing with Xiao Yuan would be a piece of cake. He hadn't expected Xiao Yuan to be so powerful, managing to raise his strength to the Dou Zun level.

Currently, unless the leaders of the other two branch pavilions of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion come and join forces with Fei Tian, Fei Tian is no match for Xiao Yuan.

Although Fei Tian had reached the level of Half-Step Dou Zun through secret techniques, he was still being chased around by Xiao Yuan.

The Three Thousand Lightning Movement were unleashed at full power, leaving trails of afterimages in the air.

Behind him, Xiao Yuan was also using the Three Thousand Lightning Movement. Although Xiao Yuan's proficiency in the Three Thousand Lightning Movement technique was still slightly behind Fei Tian's, the difference in strength between Half-Step Dou Zun and Dou Zun was enormous!

Wind Spirit Dividing Sword! Wind Splitting Whirlwind Dance!

Four Direction Wind Wall!

With a casual flick of his wrist, Xiao Yuan unleashed several Dou Technique in quick succession.

The first two apply pressure to movement, while the latter locks onto a position.

Looking at the wind walls around him, a ruthless glint flashed in Fei Tian's eyes. Killing him wouldn't be so easy!

*Swoosh! Xiao Yuan didn't give him a chance. Almost the instant he turned around to fight back, a dazzling beam of light shot out from the tip of Xiao Yuan's sword-shaped finger.

Wind Extremes, the Sunset Meteor Kill!

The light traveled at extremely high speed, passing through Fei Tian's chest in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan's body trembled, and nine figures flashed in the air, all rushing towards the heavily injured Fei Tian.

Bang bang bang! Soaring Nine Breaks, Three Thousand Lightning Movement strikes!

Nine figures landed one after another on Fei Tian's body, forcefully shattering his Dou Qi defenses and completely destroying all life force within him.

As for Fei Tian's soul, it naturally couldn't escape.

Xiao Yuan skillfully placed the body into a jade bottle, then froze it before storing it away.

If the corpse of Peak Dou Zong were refined into a puppet, it would definitely be incredibly powerful, right? And what about Dou Zun?

Xiao Yuan's gaze slowly shifted to the distant Thunder Venerable, his eyes narrowing, a hint of ill intent creeping into his expression.

He still has a lot of energy left, and it would definitely be difficult for him to fight Thunder Venerable head-on.

But if they join forces with Wind Venerable, killing him would be far too easy!

However, if you really want to kill me, you only have one chance.

This time, Xiao Yuan was able to break through the Dou Zun realm using the secret technique not only because of his improved strength, but also because of the Dou Qi boost given by Wind Venerable. Once he used it up, he would not be able to stabilize his Dou Zun realm.

Moreover, no matter how profound his Dou Qi foundation is, he is still only Three Star Dou Zong, and there is still some gap between him and a true Dou Zun expert.

"It seems your Starfall Pavilion is truly determined to wage war against me!"

With a gloomy face, Thunder Venerable looked at Xiao Yuan, who was flying towards him, and said in a cold voice.

"It was clearly your Wind and Thunder Pavilion who bullied Xiao Yuan first. Now, even the dignified branch pavilion master at the Peak Dou Zong has taken action, yet he still couldn't deal with Xiao Yuan, a junior who is only twenty years old. And yet you accuse my Starfall Pavilion of causing trouble?"

Wind Venerable let out a cold laugh, and his aura became increasingly violent.

In an instant, a fierce wind arose, and a deep blue light began to appear on the Wind Venerable's hands.

"Xiao Yuan, watch closely!"

Before making his move, Wind Venerable gave Xiao Yuan a word of advice. Then, his figure shot out like a wisp of green smoke, and a deep green handprint shot towards Thunder Venerable.

"Hmph, although I am slightly inferior to you in strength, you alone are not enough to kill me!"

Seeing this, Thunder Venerable snorted coldly, and then lightning crackled around him. At this moment, he finally looked somewhat like a Thunder God.

Wind Venerable remained quite calm in response.

Back when he was Dou Wang, he once teamed up with Yao Chen to deal with a Dou Zong level expert. This was a battle against opponents of higher levels, and it wasn't something Xiao Yuan could do alone.

Now that he is stronger, if he still can't deal with a Thunder Venerable, then wouldn't all his years of cultivation have been a step backward?

As Wind Venerable made his move with effortless grace, Xiao Yuan flew closer on the other side, but instead of immediately attacking, he waited for an opportunity while carefully observing Wind Venerable's use of the Soaring Nine Breaks.

Wind Venerable has cultivated and used this Dou Technique for many years. Proficiency is only one aspect. More importantly, he has reached the pinnacle in terms of grasping the timing of the Dou Technique's execution, controlling the changes in Dou Technique power, and other details.

These are all things that Xiao Yuan needs to learn.

If Xiao Yuan were given the same strength Wind Venerable, Xiao Yuan certainly wouldn't be able to achieve the same perfect effect as Wind Venerable.

Therefore, he studied with exceptional diligence, and his powerful memory and comprehension allowed Xiao Yuan's understanding of the Soaring Nine Breaks to advance by leaps and bounds.

Xiao Yuan's eyes grew even brighter.

At this moment, Thunder Venerable was already in a very bad state. Wind Venerable's seventh palm strike had already caused him some injuries. If two more palm strikes came, he would probably be seriously injured.

Clearly, Wind Venerable really wanted to kill him.

Although Thunder Venerable possessed the power of Three Thousand Lightning Movement, Wind Venerable's movement technique was also very fast. Therefore, Thunder Venerable really couldn't dodge Wind Venerable's attack.

So he took the eighth blow head-on, grunted, and flew backward.

His arm was numb.

Wind Venerable wouldn't give him any chance. He flashed forward and unleashed his ninth palm strike, which had already formed a deep blue energy Crystal Layer Handprint.

At the same time, Xiao Yuan also made a move.

"Senior Tianhuo, lend a hand!"

After giving a deep shout in his heart, Xiao Yuan's Dou Qi surged wildly throughout his body, and dark golden Heavenly Flames flowed out of Xiao Yuan's body like liquid, transforming into a huge dark golden fire ruler.

As all the Dou Qi was poured in, the energy fluctuations of the dark golden fire ruler became increasingly terrifying, shattering the surrounding void.

Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler! Xiao Yuan took a step forward, distorting space, and in the next moment, he appeared behind Thunder Venerable, slashing down with the fire ruler in his hand.

"How could this kid unleash such a terrifying attack?!"

Thunder Venerable was desperately resisting Wind Venerable's final palm strike when, unexpectedly, Xiao Yuan appeared from behind him and launched such a terrifying attack.

If he were in his prime, it wouldn't be difficult for him to withstand this move!

Unfortunately, he was not only injured at this moment, but his Dou Qi was also greatly depleted in the battle with Wind Venerable.

So at this moment, he really didn't have any hands free.

But if he were to take this hit head-on, coupled with the terrifying offensive of the Wind Venerable, he would most likely be doomed!

So, with a thought, he summoned lightning from the dark thunderclouds in the sky, which continuously struck to stop the fire ruler from advancing.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan simply threw the ruler out and then used his physical body to withstand the lightning.

Thunder Venerable Zhe initially thought Xiao Yuan had gone mad, but when he saw that the lightning had revitalized Xiao Yuan, whose aura had been somewhat weak, he was both astonished and filled with a sense of panic.

Clearly, those lightning bolts were no match for Xiao Yuan's Heavenly Flames. In an instant, they were refined into pure Lightning Attribute Dou Qi and replenished into Xiao Yuan's body.

Having regained some of his strength, Xiao Yuan flipped his hand, and a dazzling Orange-Red Flame appeared in his palm. With a thought, a wisp of heart fire appeared in Thunder Venerable 'Xiao Yuan heart.

Thunder Venerable Zhe was already distracted and unable to concentrate, and at this moment, a strange flame suddenly ignited in his heart, making him unable to withstand it.

"If you want me dead, you won't live either!"

Unable to stop the fatal attack, Thunder Venerable looked at the scene before him in despair. Suddenly, a resolute look flashed in his eyes. He then changed his hand seals, his aura fluctuated violently, and his body began to swell.

"Want to expose yourself?"

Seeing this, a cold smile appeared on Xiao Yuan's face, and he clenched his fist at Thunder Venerable from afar.

The next moment, the Shao Yin Sovereign Fire within Thunder Venerable's body suddenly erupted with the enormous energy contained in the turbulent blood and qi, shattering Thunder Venerable's heart meridian. At the same time, it spread throughout Thunder Venerable's entire body, which was filled with Dou Qi due to the self-destruction.

"Laugh!"

Then, Wind Venerable saw Thunder Venerable suddenly tremble violently, with green smoke constantly emerging from his seven orifices, and dazzling orange-red light appearing beneath his skin.

"Ugh."

However, Thunder Venerable's screams lasted only a second before falling silent, because his vocal cords had been burned.

Not long after, the once majestic Thunder Venerable fell completely silent.

On his chest and back, there was a clear palm print and a huge wound, respectively.

Xiao Yuan popped a handful of pills into his mouth, then flew to Thunder Venerable's side, took off his Storage Ring, froze the corpse, and put it away.

Whether it's for crafting a puppet or for use as a backup for Heavenly Flame Venerable to revive him, this body at the Dou Zun level is necessary, just in case.

Wind Venerable watched Xiao Yuan's busy figure, what kept repeating in his mind's eye was the image of the young man angrily slashing down with a fire ruler.

They truly are master and disciple, so alike!

Wind Venerable couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This scene just now reminded him of the time when he and Yao Chen roamed the Central State.

Fortunately, there is now news of Yao Chen, and with such an outstanding disciple, he has survived a great calamity and is sure to have good fortune in the future.

However, Xiao Yuan did not feel joy at killing Dou Zun. With a thought, his pupils turned silver-white. With the help of the powerful soul power of the Heavenly Flame Venerable, Xiao Yuan was now comparable to a high-level seventh-grade alchemist.

The soul power swept through the surroundings, but found nothing unusual.

"Can't find it?"

Xiao Yuan frowned.

He didn't like leaving any future troubles; if he killed someone, he had to destroy their soul as well! Otherwise, what if Thunder Venerable happened to get involved with the Soul Hall? Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?

Although Xiao Yuan wasn't afraid of the Soul Hall, the Han Clan was ultimately his weakness. Therefore, some things, if you're going to do them, do them thoroughly! "Xiao Yuan, look at the space seven hundred meters to your right. There seems to be something unusual there!"

Although Heavenly Flame Venerable is no longer powerful, he was once Five Star Dou Zun, so he is still quite familiar with Space Power and has extremely sharp eyesight.

Therefore, upon hearing Heavenly Flame Venerable's reminder, Xiao Yuan did not hesitate to throw out the Orange-Red Flame in his hand, pouring his soul power into it, causing it to explode at the location Heavenly Flame Venerable had indicated, turning into a sea of fire.

Because this fire is born from the Fallen Heart Flame, it also possesses some of the Fallen Heart Flame's characteristic of burning the soul.

Although it cannot compare to the effect of its main body, if we were to be honest, its effect is no worse than that of its Sub-flame.

More importantly, driven by Xiao Yuan's terrifying soul power, the high temperature of the flames themselves was enough to cause extremely fatal damage to the soul body.

So, in less than five seconds, Thunder Venerable's soul hurriedly broke through space, trying to escape.

He didn't even have time to wonder why Xiao Yuan was able to find his location so accurately before he was trapped in the fireball by the closing flames.

The terrifying heat scorched his already weak soul, causing it to wither considerably, and in the end, he could only obediently be put into the jade bottle by Xiao Yuan.

To be honest, Xiao Yuan suddenly felt like he was some kind of villainous character lately. The experts from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion either died or were turned into puppets in his hands.

If this were set in a fantasy world, he would definitely be a great demon who makes a strange, lewd entrance.

"Impressive perception. Your performance just now reminded me of Yao Chen's brilliance back then. I really miss him!"

Wind Venerable appeared in front of Xiao Yuan, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a look of satisfaction.

"Old Feng, you flatter me. I was just lucky to have some opportunities, and with the guidance of my teacher, I have achieved my current strength. Your Soaring Nine Breaks earlier truly broadened my horizons!"

Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"Hehe, no need to be so modest. Back when Yao Chen and I were as young as you, we were much more formidable. With the death of Thunder Venerable, the landscape of the Four Directions Pavilion is likely to change. What do you plan to do?"

Wind Venerable waved his hand and smiled, seemingly recalling his glorious past. But then, his expression turned serious, and he asked earnestly.

"I really hadn't thought that far ahead. With Thunder Venerable gone, the Wind and Thunder Pavilion is probably going to go crazy. I can't keep you and me here guarding the Han Clan forever. How about this, I'll go back and discuss it with them, and have the Han Clan move to the Southern Region of Central State?"

Xiao Yuan thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice.
