"Moo!"

The Yellow Springs Demon Saint placed his hands to his mouth, and a thousand-foot-tall phantom appeared behind him.

A powerful sonic wave erupted from its mouth, unleashing a devastating soul attack towards Gu Yuan.

"What!"

Gu Yuan was taken aback, clearly not expecting these people to be so lacking in martial ethics.

"Ah!"

His soul was struck, Gu Yuan felt a sharp pain in his soul, while also experiencing a mental lapse.

He covered his head with both hands, his face contorted in pain.

This method, which targets the soul, is far more painful than physical injury.

The Yellow Springs Demon Saint's soul realm is currently at its peak. Even Zhu Kun, who previously had extremely strong soul resistance, was shaken into a daze, not to mention Gu Yuan.

He was in excruciating pain after enduring just one soul-shaking impact.

With his soul attacked, Gu Yuan no longer had the will to maintain the Ancient Emperor Shattering Nirvana Finger.

The giant finger dissipated, and Xiao Yan's Yellow Springs Palm and Great Heaven Creation Palm were no longer restrained. The two enormous palms pressed down directly towards Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan's body crashed to the ground, creating a huge crater in the grassland beneath his feet.

"Clan Leader!"

Witnessing Gu Yuan suffer severe injuries, Gu Lie, Gu Dao, and the others felt a surge of despair.

They quickly stepped forward to check on Gu Yuan's condition.

Pfft!

As the smoke and dust cleared, Gu Yuan's disheveled figure crawled out of the pit.

Her hair was disheveled, and she still looked somewhat dazed. Her originally simple linen clothes were now even more tattered.

Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth, and his disordered breathing indicated that he was seriously injured.

Seeing Gu Yuan's current state, Xiao Yan's lips curled up.

He's not exactly a respectable person, so naturally he wouldn't engage in any fair one-on-one duels.

Making Gu Yuan suffer a setback is the only way to succeed.

"Quickly... quickly... form the formation!"

Gu Lie helped Gu Yuan up, and could hear intermittent sounds coming from his mouth.

"Form the formation!" Upon hearing this, Gu Lie was clearly taken aback, then nodded and hurriedly shouted to the Gu Clan experts behind him.

Hearing Gu Lie's stern shout, the powerful members of the Gu Clan suppressed their despair and responded in unison.

A surge of overwhelming Dou Qi erupted from their bodies, and a formation slowly emerged, enveloping the entire sky, causing the world to change color.

Their imposing presence made Xiao Yan abandon some of his casualness.

Gu Yuan forcefully stabilized his injuries, then soared into the air, hovering above everyone's heads amidst the boundless Dou Qi.

"Ancient Emperor Mirror!"

With a sharp shout, Gu Yuan's hand seals shifted, and his Dou Qi slowly condensed under his control, eventually transforming into a massive ancient energy mirror, nearly ten thousand feet in size, reflecting the heavens and earth.

"Could this be the Ancient Emperor Mirror you mentioned?" Zhu Kun and Yellow Springs Demon Saint approached Xiao Yan and asked, looking at the enormous object slowly gathering in the sky.

Even they felt an extraordinary aura emanating from this ancient mirror, which was tens of thousands of feet long.

Xiao Yan looked up at the ancient mirror that stretched ten thousand feet in the sky.

The Ancient Emperor Mirror is an extremely powerful trump card of the Gu Clan.

Although it might not be very effective against the Hun Tiandi after he became an emperor, it should be able to handle Peak Nine-Star Dou Saint, especially in the Ancient Realm with the support of the Ancient Realm's formation.

With Gu Yuan personally in charge, even Zhu Kun would probably have to back down.

"Destroy them before they finish!" Xiao Yan said coldly.

Knowing its formidable power, Xiao Yan naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.

Zhu Kun and the Yellow Springs Demon Saint nodded.

The three of them took a step forward and arrived in front of the array barrier that enveloped the Gu Clan.

"Watch me smash your turtle shells!" Zhu Kun roared, his Dou Qi condensing into a giant dragon claw that slammed towards the formation.

Xiao Yan and the Yellow Springs Demon Saint also joined the attack, their powerful Dou Qi bombarding the array barrier.

The combined power of three Nine-Star Dou Sheng —one at the initial stage and two at the peak—is unimaginable.

With just one strike, the great formation began to tremble.

Click! Click!

Cracks appeared and gradually spread out like a spider web, rapidly expanding.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan became anxious and his hand seals became even faster.

"Pfft!"

Immediately afterwards, he spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood and sprinkled it into the formation, causing the Ancient Emperor Mirror to glow.

At the same time, the great formation shattered after withstanding the second combined attack from Xiao Yan and the other two!

"Ah!"

The powerful figures maintaining the formation all suffered from its backlash, spitting out blood and flying backward.

However, with the infusion of Essence Blood, the Ancient Emperor Mirror was fully formed, and a terrifying aura of destruction emanated from it.

Looking at the Gu Clan expert who had been sent flying backward, Gu Yuan's expression turned extremely ugly. "Xiao Yan, you need to pay some price for your actions today!"

"Call out!"

As he spoke, his hands formed a series of hand seals, and a massive beam of light, tens of thousands of feet tall, shot out from the surface of the Ancient Emperor Mirror, aiming directly at Xiao Yan and his companions, blocking all their escape routes.

Wherever the beam of light passed, even the air itself was blasted into nothingness.

In the distance, Xun'er, who had been teleported away by Xiao Yan, saw the pillar of light piercing down from the sky, and her face turned deathly pale.

She never expected things to develop to this point, with her father even resorting to the Ancient Emperor Mirror.

Such a powerful offensive would be extremely difficult to withstand even for someone as strong as Peak Nine-Star Dou Saint.

Those powerful figures from the Gu Clan thought the same thing, and in the end... their Gu Clan still won!

This time, it's straight!

However, facing the Ancient Emperor Mirror and seeing the towering pillar of light hurtling towards him, Xiao Yan smiled calmly, without the slightest hint of panic on his face.

Seeing that familiar expression, Gu Yuan, who had experienced this before, immediately felt his heart leap into his throat.

What else does Xiao Yan have to rely on?!

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiao Yan shielded Zhu Kun and the Yellow Springs Demon Saint behind him, choosing to face the devastating pillar of light head-on.

"Xiao Yan... Brother!"

Seeing Xiao Yan engulfed by the pillar of light, Xun'er's heart sank almost to the bottom.

Seeing this, Gu Yuan and the other powerful members of the Gu Clan all breathed a sigh of relief.

Peak Nine-Star Dou Saint is not so easy to kill. Although this time it could not kill Xiao Yan and the other two, it could severely injure them.

This farce is finally coming to an end.

"My dear son-in-law, you're quite robust!"

However, just when everyone thought it was over, Zhu Kun's voice rang out.

The voice was calm, with a hint of mockery.

Upon hearing the voice, the smiles on everyone's faces froze, and they all looked in the direction from which the voice came, as if they had seen a ghost.

There, the air was annihilated, space was destroyed, and the entire area became a void.

The imagined scene of the three lying on the ground seriously injured did not occur. The three continued to chat and laugh, and not even the hem of their clothes got dirty.

Seeing that her Brother Xiao Yan was alright, Xun'er finally felt relieved.

"How is this possible!"

Gu Yuan and the others' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Despite such a powerful attack, Xiao Yan and his companions remained completely unharmed. How could this be?

Even Dou Di) couldn't be this composed, could they?
