Crushing Gu Feng-Would Xiao Yan Agree to Marry Into the Clan?
This Earth -Earth Rank Dou Skill was neither the first one Xiao Yan learned, nor the one that left the deepest impression on him.
On the contrary, it is the weakest Dou Skill Xiao Yan possesses, aside from the Eight Extremities Collapse.
But that's precisely why Xiao Yan chose it at this moment.
Gu Feng... it's not worth his serious attention.
The Heavy Profound Ruler's strike tore through space and arrived in front of Gu Feng in the blink of an eye.
Gu Feng was startled and hastily used the first move of the Emperor Seal Art, Mountain Splitting Seal, swiftly pressing out a palm print formed from Dou Qi.
The palm print collided with the slash, like soft flesh meeting a hard knife; the massive palm print instantly developed a gap, and energy continuously leaked out.
Gu Feng panicked for a moment, then formed a hand seal again and unleashed a second palm print, which flashed with azure light.
The two palm prints overlapped, vying with the slash of the Flame Splitting Wave Ruler, barely managing to withstand it.
After a few seconds of stalemate, the slash and palm print finally erupted with astonishing energy, exploding in mid-air.
Gu Feng clutched his chest, panting heavily, while Xiao Yan remained calm, as if his attack had been nothing more than a casual gesture.
Laymen watch the spectacle, experts watch the details.
Those who had reached the Dou Venerate level or above and were watching this battle all looked at Xiao Yan with astonishment.
They could all see that Xiao Yan's Dou Skill was at most at the Early Earth Tier, and the Power of Heaven and Earth he mobilized when he used it was far less than that of Gu Feng's Emperor Seal Technique.
The Emperor Seal Technique, every casual move is comparable to a high-level Earth Rank technique. With both seals unleashed simultaneously, Gu Feng clearly used two attacks to barely withstand Xiao Yan's strike.
Both being First-Turn Dou Venerate, Gu Feng's performance was far inferior.
"What level is Xiao Yan's Cultivation Technique? The quality of his Dou Qi is so high!" Elder Tongxuan exclaimed in surprise.
It should be noted that Gu Feng was the previous generation's prodigy of the Ancient Clan, a being who had the potential to reach the level of a low- Dou Sheng in the future, and he cultivated Cultivation Technique at the Initial Heaven Rank.
Could it be that Xiao Yan's cultivation Cultivation Technique is even higher than the Initial Heaven Rank?
A series of probing gazes fell upon Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan didn't care about this level of exposure.
He looked at Gu Feng and stated the facts calmly. "Give it your all."
"Right now, you can't even let me warm up."
"Damn it!" Gu Feng gritted his teeth and growled.
"Kid, you forced me to this!" Gu Feng decided to stop holding back.
He assumed the same starting stance and struck out with his palm. "Mountain Splitting Seal!"
Then...
"Sea Overturning Seal!"
"Earth Covering Seal!"
Ignoring the depletion of his Dou Qi, he unleashed three seals simultaneously.
Xiao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he shook his head slightly. "Without five seals, there won't be a qualitative change."
"Weak," he casually remarked, before unleashing two slashes with the Heavy Profound Ruler.
The two slashes collided with the three seals, but the two slashes overwhelmed the three seals.
Gu Feng's eyes blazed with resentment as he roared, "Fine, then let me show you!"
"The fourth seal of the Emperor Seal Technique, the Heaven Annihilating Seal!"
Gu Feng unleashed another seal, and this seal immediately distinguished itself from the previous three seals that only combined power.
The annihilation power contained within the Heaven Annihilating Seal elevated the power of Gu Feng's palm strike to a new level.
At this moment, a hint of interest finally appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes.
He raised the Heavy Profound Ruler again, Myriad Beast Spirit Flame slowly surged from his palm, attaching itself to the Heavy Profound Ruler.
The slash coalesced once more.
Xiao Yan said to Gu Feng, "If you know the Ancient Emperor Seal, use it now. This is your last chance."
Gu Feng clenched his fist and looked at Elder Tongxuan.
Elder Tongxuan nodded. "Use your full strength."
Gu Feng's eyes lit up, and he completely let loose.
All his Dou Qi converged on his hands at that moment, and his fingers quickly formed hand seals.
In an instant, the ancient aura between heaven and earth reached its peak, and the air above Tian Shu City reversed, with a raging storm.
As the palm strikes and slashes clashed, Gu Feng and Xiao Yan launched their attacks simultaneously.
"Emperor Seal Art, Five Seals Combined into One, Ancient Emperor Seal!" Gu Feng shouted.
Xiao Yan's long-awaited strike was finally unleashed. "Myriad Beast Flame-Clad - Flame Splitting Wave Ruler!"
The slash, wreathed in crimson flames, tore through the void and crashed into the Ancient Emperor Seal.
In mid-air, two extremely powerful Dou Skill finally erupted at this moment.
Boom--!
The world suddenly fell silent, followed by a terrifying shockwave that rapidly spread from the point where the two attacks collided.
In the sky, Gu Feng was hit head-on by this impact. He staggered, spat out a mouthful of blood, and his breath quickly weakened.
Elder Tongxuan raised his hand, and the terrifying Dou Qi of High-Level Semi-Saint quickly condensed into a Dou Qi barrier, protecting the entire Black Annihilation Army, and also setting up defenses in Tian Shu City.
In contrast, Xiao Yan, facing a shockwave whose power was no less than that of Heaven Rank Dou Skill, raised his hand and blocked it forward. The shockwave dissipated instantly, and he didn't even move an inch.
At this moment, the difference in quality is immediately apparent.
Xiao Yan looked at Gu Feng with no mockery or disdain in his eyes, only a genuine indifference from the bottom of his heart.
"This encounter with me is the pinnacle of your life."
Feel honored, for you will understand later that losing to me today is no disgrace.
Gu Feng showed no resentment; instead, he wore a self-deprecating smile, "Heh, I struck with all my might, yet I couldn't even budge you an inch."
Xiao Yan, you're amazing! I, Gu Feng, am completely impressed!
With that, Gu Feng turned and plunged into the spatial rift, too ashamed to stay there any longer.
The Ancient Realm at this time.
Seeing the images transmitted back by the Ancient Character Token in the sky, the disciples of the Ancient Clan felt utterly humiliated.
The Emperor Seal Technique is the signature technique of their Ancient Clan. When the five seals are combined, their power is comparable to Heaven Rank Dou Skill.
Both being First-Turn Dou Venerate, Gu Feng even used the Five Seals Combined, but he was still no match for Xiao Yan and was so easily crushed!
Doesn't this mean that among cultivators of the same cultivation level, no one in their Ancient Clan can defeat Xiao Yan?
Many Ancient Clan secretly cursed Gu Feng as a good-for-nothing.
However, in the skies above the Ancient Realm, the elders of the Ancient Clan held a completely different view.
They didn't blame Gu Feng, because they all understood that it wasn't that Gu Feng was too weak, but that Xiao Yan was too strong.
The quality of that Dou Qi was far superior to that of the Gu Feng, not only because of the cultivation Cultivation Technique, but also because Dou Qi had undergone a mutation due to the absorption of Heavenly Flames.
Many Gu Clan Elder knew in their hearts that, let alone Gu Feng, who was at the First-Turn Dou Venerate, even the fifth or sixth level of Dou Zun geniuses of the Ancient Clan might not be a match for Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan's Heaven-Swallowing Talent is indeed formidable, but his personality is a bit too arrogant," Gu Clan Elder snorted in dissatisfaction.
Some Gu Clan Elder spoke up for Xiao Yan, saying, "Although his words were a bit arrogant, Xiao Yan deserves them."
"Once he becomes the son-in-law of my Ancient Clan, his personality will actually be a good thing when facing other Emperor Clan in the future."
Suddenly, a keen-eyed Gu Clan Elder spoke up, "How could you possibly think that someone as arrogant as Xiao Yan would be willing to become a live-in son-in-law?"
