Battle with Wu Ying!

Jia He swooped down from the sky, then turned his gaze northward.

Jia Xing Tian, standing nearby, also noticed that something was off with Jia He and asked, "What is it?"

Jia He smiled. "Just a rat that doesn't dare show its face."

As though it had heard Jia He's words, an immense aura that drastically changed everyone's expressions spread out from the northern forest.

Even Jia Xing Tian and the Nether Sea Flood Dragon's expressions turned solemn beneath that terrifying aura.

That aura was far stronger than either of theirs. There was only one explanation: this person's strength had reached the realm of a Dou Zong!

Boom!

A pitch-black spatial rift suddenly appeared in the skies above the rear mountain. A mass of black mist drifted out from it, radiating a frigid aura!

The Dou Zong aura that had appeared within the palace was detected by several of the Imperial Capital's greatest experts almost instantly.

Alchemist Association.

President Fama had been reading in his office when that dreadful Dou Zong aura spread forth. He immediately rose to his feet and looked toward the palace.

"A Dou Zong expert? Something happened at the palace?" Without hesitation, Fama spread the wings on his back and shot out through the window.

Misty Cloud Sect's main hall.

Misty Cloud Mountain was not far from the Jia Ma Imperial Family's palace. The instant that aura appeared, it alarmed Yun Yun as well.

"A Dou Zong expert's aura? When did such an expert appear in the Jia Ma Empire?" Yun Yun was somewhat puzzled. Then her figure vanished from the hall.

At the rear mountain, Jia Xing Tian stepped slightly forward and shielded Yaoye and Yaoyue behind him. He said quietly to Yaoye, "When things get chaotic, take Yue'er and leave this place!"

Though Yaoye had yet to understand what was happening, she knew how dangerous their situation was. She immediately nodded. "Don't worry, Great-Grandfather!"

Jia He stared at the black figure in the sky. With his powerful soul perception, he could sense that the other party was likely at the peak of the four-star Dou Zong realm.

Jia He had only just broken through to the Dou Emperor realm. After absorbing four types of Dou Qi, he had barely advanced to the peak of the three-star Dou Emperor realm. The gap between them spanned more than an entire major realm!

"Am I still a rat now?" A sinister laugh sounded from within the black mist, filled with mockery.

Jia He said, "A rat is still a rat. Even after showing itself, it is merely a rat in the open."

"I hope you can remain this stubborn later!" A frosty voice came from the black mist.

Pitch-black chains shot out from the black mist with clattering sounds.

"Careful!" Jia Xing Tian shouted.

Jia He narrowed his eyes. Lightning flashed around his body, and with a tap of his toes, he instantly turned into an afterimage and evaded the chain.

Seeing his strike miss, Wu Ying snorted coldly. Several more chains shot out from the black mist and stabbed viciously toward Jia He!

Flames surged from Jia He's hands. He twisted aside to evade one chain, then reached out and grabbed it directly!

A fiery serpent raced back along the chain toward the black mist.

The terrifying power of the flames made Wu Ying's heart sink. The chain instantly dispersed, and Wu Ying swiftly retreated.

"You do have some skill. You actually managed to make even me feel a little troubled!" Wu Ying said grimly.

Then Wu Ying said, "But that is all!"

As his words fell, Wu Ying unleashed several chains that descended upon Jia He like a net covering the heavens!

"Jia He, I'll help you!" Jia Xing Tian roared. With a clenched hand, the long sword he had refined earlier instantly appeared in his grasp.

His wings beat fiercely, and Jia Xing Tian rushed over with his sword. He swept it horizontally, and the violent sword Qi directly severed one of the chains!

Pfft!

The black mist around Wu Ying immediately dissipated somewhat. "Courting death!"

The black mist churned as chains tore through the air, killing toward Jia Xing Tian.

Watching the explosive clashes continuously erupt in the sky, the Nether Sea Flood Dragon thought to himself, Could this be my chance to advance? Just a Dou Zong—damn it, let's do this!

With a long howl, blue light blazed around the Nether Sea Flood Dragon's body. He charged directly into the battlefield, his powerful physical body smashing fiercely toward Wu Ying.

Bang!

Seeing another peak Dou Emperor expert join the battle, Wu Ying roared, and a violent aura instantly surged from the black mist.

The overwhelming pressure spreading down from the heavens caused Yaoye and Yaoyue, who were still at the rear mountain, to turn pale.

Yaoye grabbed Yaoyue. "Run!"

The two took advantage of the chaos and sprinted toward the palace exit.

At that moment, several streaks of light flashed across the sky.

Yun Yun and Fama arrived at the palace's rear mountain one after another. Behind them came Gu He, Nalan Jie, and Mitel Tengshan.

Seeing Princess Yaoye and Yaoyue, Fama immediately descended and brought the two to a safe area.

"What happened?" Fama asked Yaoye.

Yaoye's face was slightly pale as she shook her head. "This black-mist expert appeared out of nowhere. Jia He discovered him, and he wanted to attack Jia He. Great-Grandfather and Senior Youhai went to help!"

Fama looked toward the fierce battle among the four in the sky. His pupils suddenly contracted. "Jia He has advanced to the Dou Emperor realm?"

Fama's words immediately drew the attention of everyone nearby. Yun Yun looked up into the sky, and sure enough, she saw Jia He's figure. His formidable aura did not seem any weaker than hers!

It's him. He's actually a Dou Emperor? Yun Yun was horrified.

But there was no time for shock now.

Yaoye said, "President Fama, can you save them? The Imperial Family will reward you handsomely!"

Yun Yun slowly said, "This man's aura is cold and sinister, like a ghost. His appearance in the Jia Ma Empire means he must have malicious intentions!"

Fama nodded. "You three hold the line from the side. Sect Leader Yun Yun, you and I will go first!"

Yun Yun nodded slightly. Then her wings beat, pale green Dou Qi swept out, and she instantly charged toward Wu Ying.

President Fama had not expected Yun Yun to act so swiftly. He followed close behind and joined the battle!

Rumble!

Thunderous explosions continuously rang out from the sky.

Five Dou Emperors joining forces to kill a peak four-star Dou Zong were still finding it somewhat difficult!

The Dou Qi within Jia He's body circulated madly as violent power began to boil. Bolts of lightning emerged over the surface of his body.

Boom!

Jia He's body was completely submerged in lightning, and an incomparably domineering aura awakened within him.

A pitch-black chain shot toward Jia He, but before it could reach him, it was directly blasted apart by lightning.

"Thunder Punishment!" Jia He's slightly muffled voice suddenly rang out.

The lightning stirred a drastic change in heaven and earth. Above the void, supremely terrifying lightning began to gather, and the world around them started to darken.

A storm was coming. In a single instant, day turned into night.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared across the sky. The deafening rumble carried terrifying pressure as it descended to suppress and kill Wu Ying.

The power of lightning was the natural bane of cold, sinister auras like Wu Ying's.

Under the cover of that terrifying lightning power, even Wu Ying could not suppress the fear rising in his heart!

Rumble!

A bolt of lightning descended to kill Wu Ying.

Wu Ying was terrified out of his wits and desperately tried to evade it. The lightning instantly shattered the place where Wu Ying had been.

"What kind of Dou skill is this? How can it be so terrifying?" Jia Xing Tian and the others stared in stunned disbelief!
