Each Opponent
Sensing the terrifying aura that Lin Ming suddenly unleashed, which was in no way inferior to his own Five-Star Dou Venerate, even the Black-robed Old Man Huang Xuan's eyes became extremely heavy at this moment, and there was no longer any trace of his previous contempt.
He originally thought that his strength as Five-Star Dou Venerate would be enough to crush everyone present, but he never expected that this seemingly young Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect Trump Card would have so many hidden cards and unfathomable strength!
However, their desire for the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit had outpaced reason and risk assessment.
This item concerns the future rise and fall of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan; it is their only hope for bloodline reversion and the birth of a supreme being! No matter what, we absolutely cannot give up!
The immense pressure, ironically, stirred up the ferocity within Huang Xuan.
He gritted his teeth, a ferocious look appearing on his bark-like face. His chilling words, like Nine Nether wind from the depths of hell, instantly caused the temperature in this already Killing intent space to plummet, filling it with overwhelming Killing intent!
"Attack! Kill! Leave no one alive!"
Upon hearing the chilling words of the Black-robed Old Man Huang Xuan, which were filled with endless Killing Intent, the eyes of Thunder Venerate, the Clan Leader the Earth Tiger Clan, the Clan Leader the Silver Moon Wolf Clan, and others, who had been unable to restrain themselves, immediately revealed a fierce light, and their boundless Dou Qi erupted from their bodies like a volcano!
"I'll deal with that Black-robed Old Man, Huang Xuan!"
Seeing this, a chill ran through Lin Ming's eyes, and his icy gaze locked onto Huang Xuan possessed the strongest aura.
Among the opposing camp, the most troublesome and the only one who could pose a threat to them was this Five-Star Dou Venerate.
As long as he can restrain or even eliminate them, the remaining Thunder Venerate and others will pose no threat to the Five Elements Sect, which possesses Puppet One, the Nine Profound Nether Python, Xiong Zhan, and Qing Lin.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ming quickly formed a mysterious and complex hand seal in front of him. At the same time, the vast and boundless Heavenly Soul Power between his brows spread out like a tide, precisely enveloping the ten quietly floating Earth Demon Puppet in mid-air.
With precise control of his Soul Power, the ten Earth Demon Puppet seemed to be endowed with a unified will, moving in unison and occupying specific positions as their figures flickered.
In the blink of an eye, the strange formation that had been used outside the main hall and was capable of fusion and evolution was formed again!
This formation is quite mysterious. It can temporarily channel the power of other Puppet through the formation's network to the core Puppet that serves as the Array Eyes, causing its power to surge in a short period of time!
While gaining control of these Puppet, Lin Ming also successfully inherited the profound secrets of this formation from its core. Therefore, he can now use it without any hesitation or awkwardness.
"Drink!"
A deep shout came from Lin Ming's mouth.
Then, within that mysterious formation, dazzling silver light burst forth from the bodies of the ten Earth Demon Puppet, like ten silver streams, and then flowed continuously into the Earth Demon Puppet located at the very center of the formation!
"Buzz--!"
With the energy infused from its nine companions, the Earth Demon Puppet that served as the Array Eyes's core trembled violently, its blinding silver light flashing wildly, and its aura soaring rapidly like a rocket!
The silver color on its body began to turn into a light gold, and a powerful aura comparable to Two-Star Dou Venerate Zun suddenly swept out!
"Attack! Kill them!" Upon seeing this, the Black-robed Old Man Huang Xuan, immediately gave the order.
Upon hearing this, Thunder Venerate, the White-haired Man, the Earth Tiger Clan Leader, and the Silver Moon Wolf Clan Leader all nodded emphatically, their eyes flashing with fierce light.
With a stomp of his foot, his figure transformed into four beams of light, each a different color but equally Killing intent, shooting straight toward the Altar like arrows, their targets the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit and Zi Yan who was guarding it!
In an instant, the booming sound of wind breaking and violent energy fluctuations echoed across the ancient plain, and a great battle broke out!
"If you want to steal anything, you'll have to get past me first!"
Upon seeing the terrifying, charging crowd, Xiong Zhan, transformed into a ten-meter-tall Dragon Bear giant, let out a deafening roar. His massive feet slammed into the ground, causing the entire Scarlet Plains to tremble violently, with cracks spreading outwards from him.
"Hmph, it is said that the Ancient Dragon Bear possessed the power to destroy mountains and split the earth. Today, let this old man experience it for himself and see if your bear paw is harder or my tiger claw is sharper!"
Seeing this, the Clan Leader of the Earth Tiger Clan's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light. He sneered, and a deafening tiger's roar suddenly rang out. His figure, enveloped in earth-yellow Dou Qi, transformed into a streak of light, shooting towards the massive Xiong Zhan like a cannonball.
"Watch me smash your tiger head in one punch!"
A ferocious grin appeared on Xiong Zhan's face. His huge fist clenched tightly, carrying a terrifying force that Space-Rending. He did not back down and, like a rampaging steel tank, crashed heavily into the charging Earth Tiger Clan Leader!
"Bang!!!"
Fists and claws clashed, like two small mountains colliding! A terrifying ripple of energy, visible to the naked eye, swept outwards from the point of impact like a storm, lifting the crimson sand below dozens of feet high, filling the air with dust!
Both men shuddered, their eyes flashing with even greater ferocity. They roared once more and engaged in a fierce battle, their fists striking flesh and their claws Space-Rending, their fighting style reaching an extreme of rage.
"As for Thunder Venerate and the white-haired man from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, let this newly created Heavenly Demon Puppet and Puppet One keep them company."
Watching the fierce battle that erupted in an instant, Lin Ming's gaze swept over the Thunder Venerate was riding on blinding lightning and the white-haired youth of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan who was rushing towards him with venomous eyes. He then assigned tasks in a detached tone.
With a thought, the Heavenly Demon Puppet, which had just absorbed the power of the formation and whose aura had surged to the level of Two-Star Dou Venerate, flashed a red light in its eyes and disappeared like a ghost. The next instant, it appeared in front of Thunder Venerate and threw a punch without any fancy moves, directly tearing apart the raging lightning!
Although this Heavenly Demon Puppet is weaker than Puppet One, its characteristics of being immune to pain, possessing immense strength, and being able to absorb lightning power to enhance itself make it more than capable of dealing with Thunder Venerate.
Meanwhile, the Dark-Gold Heavenly Demon Puppet that had been standing still all along— Puppet One —fiercely confronted the White-haired Man.
"Then, Brother Lin Ming, let me take over the Clan Leader of the last remaining leader of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan!"
Seeing his opponents being devoured in an instant, Qing Lin could only fix his gaze on the Last Place, the Silver Moon Wolf Clan Leader, whose aura was cold and whose body was filled with moonlight and wolf howls. He spoke softly, his blue eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
Lin Ming nodded noncommittally and said, "Alright! Qing Lin, then he's in your hands. You've just inherited the perfect legacy of the Beast Taming Sect, so let me see just how much your beast taming skills have improved."
Upon hearing this, Qing Lin was immediately overjoyed and nodded vigorously. Being able to share Lin Ming's burdens and test her own skills was exactly what she had been hoping for.
Then, Qing Lin lightly touched the head of the Nine Profound Nether Python with her jade foot. With a hiss, the enormous creature moved suddenly, carrying a terrifying aura, and directly intercepted the Silver Moon Wolf Clan's Dou Zun expert was trying to bypass the battlefield and rush towards the Altar!
The immense aura of the Nine Profound Nether Python, comparable to Three-Star Dou Venerate, combined with the pure energy of Qing Lin's own One-Star Dou Venerate, created a powerful pressure that caused the Silver Moon Wolf Clan Leader's expression to change slightly. His forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he hurriedly focused his mind, daring not to be careless in the slightest.
Looking at the four main battle circles that had quickly become entangled and were locked in a fierce and evenly matched fight, Lin Ming nodded slightly, the situation had temporarily stabilized. Only then did he turn his gaze completely to the Black-robed Old Man, Huang Xuan, a cold sneer appearing on his face.
Meanwhile, the Black-robed Old Man, Huang Xuan, looked at the battlefield where all his men were being intercepted and were even at a disadvantage. His face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
His gaze swept across this strange world shrouded in the Beast Spirit Barrier, as if sensing something. Suddenly, he turned his head and whispered to a woman in a colorful dress, with a cool and aloof demeanor, who had been quietly following beside him:
"Qing'er, you should have felt the strangeness of this world and the resonance of the ancient ancestral bones, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ming glanced at the woman. She was stunningly beautiful, with a slender figure and Fenghuang pattern on her colorful dress. Her demeanor was out of place with her surroundings, exuding an innate nobility and aloofness.
This woman should be Feng Qing'er, the prodigy of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in the original novel.
At this moment, Feng Qing'er's cool eyes flickered slightly, as if she was carefully sensing something.
A moment later, a hint of undisguised surprise and understanding flashed in her eyes. She quickly nodded and replied in a clear voice, "Elder, rest assured, Qing'er has sensed this guiding resonance originating from our bloodline. Leave it to me."
"Well, whether we can successfully obtain the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit and break the current stalemate depends on you." The Black-robed Old Man, Huang Xuan, nodded, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes.
Without hesitation, he swept his sleeves and burst forth with colorful light. He flashed out like a roc spreading its wings. The vast and majestic aura of Five-Star Dou Venerate Roc completely and unreservedly unleashed at this moment, causing the Heaven and Earth Energy to gather wildly and the wind and clouds to change color!
"You brat, prepare to die!"
Huang Xuan roared, his withered hand reaching out. Brilliant, multicolored Dou Qi surged forth like a bolt of lightning, condensing into a gigantic, multicolored phoenix claw. Space-Tearing, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom, and swept towards Lin Ming from above! Such power was enough to crush a mountain into dust!
Lin Ming's eyes narrowed slightly at this, but he remained completely calm.
With a casual wave of his hand, Lin Ming unleashed the dark purple New Purple Extreme Annihilation Flame within his body, which surged forth like an enraged dragon, transforming into a massive Flame Vortex before him.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
The colorful phoenix claws gripped the dark purple Flame Vortex fiercely, but the expected earth-shattering explosion did not occur. The terrifying power that was capable of tearing apart High-Grade Steel was rapidly eroded, decomposed, and annihilated by the ultimate destructive intent contained within the Flame Vortex the moment it came into contact with it, emitting a teeth-grinding sound. In the end, both of them dissipated into countless specks of light, failing to shake Lin Ming in the slightest!
"What?!"
Huang Xuan's pupils contracted slightly. His attack had been neutralized so easily?
"Block!"
Having failed in his first attack, Huang Xuan moved again, closing in on Lin Ming. His fist, imbued with terrifying power and enveloped in solidified colorful Dou Qi, slammed towards Lin Ming's face like a meteor.
He refused to believe that he, with his powerful physique from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, would suffer a loss in close combat!
