On Mount Beiji, in a vast plaza, Xiao Yan and Protector Huan Qin Xu Xuhuan faced off against each other.
After a hundred rounds of fighting, neither of them had gained the upper hand against Xiao Yan. They were even nearly seriously injured by Xiao Yan several times. At this moment, the two of them looked quite disheveled. Qin Xu's brocade robe was torn in several places, and the bright red fist marks were particularly clear. Strands of blood stained the brocade robe, and there was even a bruise on his face.
Although the Protector Huan was not like the former, the strange black mist surrounding him had thinned considerably under Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flames. Even the Protector Huan would feel extremely troubled by Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flames. In addition, Xiao Yan's amazing speed and agility allowed him to remain undefeated for a hundred rounds.
Knowing that the two of them could not easily suppress Xiao Yan, Qin Xu set his sights on Cai'er.
He understood that the main reason Xiao Yan appeared on his Mount Beiji this time was because of Cai'er. Xiao Yan seemed to care a lot about his disciple, otherwise he wouldn't have single-handedly confronted his entire Northern Wasteland Hall.
Acting on his impulse, while the two sides were still in a standoff, Qin Xu suddenly twisted his body and appeared beside Cai'er in an instant. In the girl's terrified gaze, he grabbed Cai'er's throat, and immediately, the girl's entire face turned red, and she kept making muffled moaning sounds.
" Cai'er!"
Upon seeing Cai'er bound by Qin Xu once again, Zhu Qiang, who was lying on the ground in the distance, immediately changed his expression. He struggled to his feet, swaying as he tried to get up, enduring his injuries, and then walked towards Qin Xu.
At the same time, Xiao Yan finally came to his senses. He hadn't expected Qin Xu to stop attacking and instead focus his attention on Cai'er. Was he trying to force him to submit?
"Snort."
With this thought in mind, Xiao Yan let out a low snort, lightly touched the air with his toes, and his figure instantly transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards Qin Xu with lightning speed.
Almost simultaneously, the Protector Huan, who had been staring at Xiao Yan, let out a strange, cackling laugh. Then, black mist surged and transformed into a black beam of light, swiftly blocking Xiao Yan Xiao Yan's path and standing between him and Qin Xu, thus stopping them from crossing.
"Hehehehe, Xiao Yan, your opponent is me."
With a strange laugh, the Protector Huan moved swiftly and rushed towards Xiao Yan in front of him.
The black mist surged, and streaks of pitch-black chains shot out from it, like black venomous snakes, aiming straight for Xiao Yan's vital points at extremely tricky angles.
"Get out of here!"
Xiao Yan's face darkened, and he swung the giant ruler in his hand fiercely. A magnificent ruler light shot out instantly, knocking away the black chains that were shooting towards him. At the same time, he quickly bypassed the Protector Huan and was about to continue forward.
Unfortunately, even though Xiao Yan was quite fast, the Protector Huan behind him was like a leech, relentlessly pursuing him. No matter how fast Xiao Yan moved, he was still slowed down by this guy, which made Xiao Yan's expression even more gloomy.
"Hehehe... I told you, your opponent is me!"
The black mist surged, Protector Huan charged at Xiao Yan once more. Xiao Yan's anger intensified, and he gripped the Heavy Xuan Ruler even tighter. Just as the black mist reached him, the giant ruler in his hand suddenly flew out, swinging seven times in succession. Seven magnificent fiery ruler beams merged together with lightning speed, colliding head-on with the Protector Huan with even more terrifying power.
The latter was equally unyielding, its eerie black chains rapidly coiling and sealing itself into a massive chain net, shrouded in black mist, rising into the sky like a giant curtain, colliding fiercely with the magnificent scale-like light.
On the other side, Qin Xu firmly controlled Cai'er in his hands. After Xiao Yan and the Protector Huan finished their clash, Qin Xu came to the Protector Huan's side, looked at Xiao Yan with a sinister grin, and said:
" Xiao Yan, now, your beloved disciple is in my hands. Do you want her to live, or do you want her to die?"
As he spoke, Qin Xu tightened his grip on Cai'er's hand, causing Cai'er to struggle even more, her already breathless body frantically trying to break free from Qin Xu's strong arms. However, with just a little effort, Qin Xu's movements immediately slowed down, and her pretty face turned bright red from the effort.
Upon seeing Qin Xu's actions, Xiao Yan's expression immediately darkened, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. The Origin Qi within his body involuntarily began to circulate, and his deep voice rang out.
Are you threatening me?
"And what do you think? Hmph, Xiao Yan, I'm giving you two choices: either kneel down and submit obediently, or watch your beautiful disciple die before your eyes!"
Qin Xu grinned maliciously, looking completely confident of victory, as if he could already see Xiao Yan's pathetic state after being bound.
"I'm sorry, I never accept threats, so I choose option three..."
"Oh? I'm curious, what is the third option you mentioned?"
I'll kill you!
The moment the words left his mouth, Xiao Yan's figure vanished from his spot and appeared in front of Qin Xu in the blink of an eye. To the latter's astonishment, he slammed a palm down hard on Qin Xu's chest.
"I'll do it!"
But at that moment, Protector Huan shouted and suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Yan. A thin, withered arm emerged from the black mist, and the blackened palm faced Xiao Yan head-on. Qin Xu took the opportunity to retreat.
"Bang!"
With a single clash, Xiao Yan's palm trembled violently, unleashing a terrifying force. Within the black mist, Protector Huan's expression changed abruptly, and his body flew backward in a slightly disheveled manner. When he regained his footing, his right hand, which had just clashed with Xiao Yan's, was now charred black. The terrifying flames had burned away a layer of flesh from his palm, even revealing glimpses of the stark white bone beneath. However, due to the intense heat of the flames, Protector Huan's right hand had also lost all sensation.
"Damn Heavenly Flames!"
Cursing inwardly, Protector Huan hadn't expected that Xiao Yan would completely ignore their threats and dare to confront them head-on. This made it even more difficult for them to control Xiao Yan!
"Damn it, what are you doing!"
However, when the Protector Huan turned to look at Qin Xu, he saw that the latter was rapidly forming hand seals, and streams of light were quickly entering Cai'er's body. This guy was actually planning to change his pupils right now!
"Hmph, this brat is useless to keep alive, it's better to get rid of her now!"
However, in the face of the Protector Huan's angry shout, Qin Xu just snorted coldly, and his hands did not stop moving in the slightest.
"Laugh..."
However, just as Qin Xu was rapidly forming hand seals, Zhu Qiang suddenly rushed in from somewhere. Although he didn't use any Dou Qi qi, he still slammed his body into Qin Xu, interrupting the hand seals he was forming.
"What!"
This scene immediately enraged Qin Xu. He turned around, saw Zhu Qiang, grinned, revealing a ferocious expression, and actually slapped Zhu Qiang hard in the chest with his backhand.
"Pfft!"
As a large mouthful of blood gushed out, Zhu Qiang's pupils suddenly contracted, then rapidly dilated, and his life force vanished in an instant.
"Elder brother!"
At the same time, Cai'er, who had witnessed her brother's death, showed despair on her tear-streaked face. Her beautiful eyes quickly turned bloodshot, and her shrill screams seemed to come from the depths of hell, piercing people's eardrums. Even the Dou Di powerhouses outside the battle circle changed their expressions.
Shut up!
Qin Xu's expression changed, and he slapped Cai'er's pretty face with a loud crack. Cai'er's eyes immediately became lifeless, and the dazzling light deep within her beautiful eyes turned crimson in an instant...
Immediately afterwards, Qin Xu raised his hand again to form a hand seal, and this time, seemingly to prevent Xiao Yan from doing so, he formed the seal much faster than before.
On the other side, Xiao Yan witnessed Zhu Qiang die at Qin Xu's hands. His face immediately showed a look of self-blame and boundless killing intent. Faced with the obstruction of the Protector Huan, Xiao Yan's attack became even more ferocious and powerful. For a moment, the Protector Huan was actually suppressed by Xiao Yan.
At the same time, Qin Xu completed the hand seals between his hands, and then raised his eyes with a grim expression, meeting Cai'er's gaze.
This time, their eyes met, reaching straight to the soul, and Qin Xu's goal was to completely strip the Illusory Spirit Eyes from the other's body and soul!
Time passed quickly, and soon ten minutes had gone by.
The battle had reached a fever pitch, but throughout the entire process, Xiao Yan had the Protector Huan firmly under his control. Under Xiao Yan's fierce attacks, the Protector Huan didn't even have a chance to catch his breath. His previous ability to actively restrain Xiao Yan was now completely gone. He didn't even have a chance to break free, let alone restrain Xiao Yan. If Xiao Yan wanted to, he could easily bypass him. However, Xiao Yan's only thought right now was to kill him quickly!
However, at that very moment, something unexpected happened on Qin Xu's side!
The normally smooth peeling process suddenly took an unexpected turn. Cai'er's Illusory Spirit Eyes caused the Origin Pearl within Qin Xu's internal energy vortex to vibrate. Then, before the Illusory Spirit Eyes could be embedded in Qin Xu's eye, the massive amount of Origin Qi within the Origin Pearl began to reverse uncontrollably, flowing along the meridians of Qin Xu's body, through his internal organs and even his entire body. Whether from the inside or the outside, it all rushed into Cai'er's body!
"What!"
At this moment, Qin Xu finally realized that something was wrong, but only then did he realize with horror that he could no longer control his body!
In other words, he could only watch helplessly as the Origin Pearl within his body continuously transferred power into Cai'er's body, while he himself grew weaker and weaker.
"No... no... what's going on... stop it! Stop it! No! I don't want it anymore! I don't want the Illusory Spirit Eyes anymore! I don't want it! Someone, someone, stop this!"
Qin Xu screamed in terror in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged. This meant that the elders and deacons of the Northern Wasteland Hall outside could not notice him. As for the others, after witnessing Zhu Qiang's miserable state, regardless of whether they had such thoughts in their hearts, they chose to remain silent.
The battle on the field continued, but almost everyone's attention was focused on Xiao Yan and Protector Huan Ibis, while Qin Xu remained calm and unperturbed, so much so that even the people from his Northern Wasteland Hall didn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Bang!"
With a powerful punch, the Protector Huan was sent flying. At this moment, the thick black mist that had surrounded him dissipated, revealing a slightly illusory body beneath him. This guy was actually another soul entity.
Seeing that familiar, eerie mask, Xiao Yan's killing intent intensified, and his attacks became even more ferocious. In particular, the special suppressive effect of the Heavenly Flames on the black mist gave Xiao Yan the upper hand.
"Damn it! Qin Xu, what the hell are you doing?!"
With a furious curse, before Protector Huan could make a move, Xiao Yan pressed forward once again. At the same time, his gaze fell upon Cai'er, and while he was worried for her, a fierce look suddenly appeared on his face.
Having forced back the Protector Huan once again, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan his fists, and two balls of flame of different colors suddenly rose from his palms.
It is the Sea Heart Flame and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame!
Then, a familiar scene from the past appeared once again.
As they clasped their hands together, the surging flames immediately intertwined. At the same time, upon witnessing this scene, the face of the Protector Huan, hidden beneath its mask, twitched violently.
"Damn it! That madman's going to use that trick again!"
With a look of horror at Qin Xu, Protector Huan knew that he would not be able to bring Xiao Yan back today. What was even more terrifying was that he had witnessed Xiao Yan using this technique, which was one of Xiao Yan's self-created trump cards, the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus!
"Let the greedy perish on their own!"
After cursing Qin Xu, the Protector Huan quickly dodged and flew rapidly towards the distant horizon, trying to escape from the clutches of this devil. After all, everyone in their Ghost Hall knew how terrifying the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus was, and facing Xiao Yan, whose combat power was now so terrifying, he probably had no choice but to run away.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yan was not about to let him leave so easily.
"Hmph, Xiao Yan, I did underestimate your strength, but killing me is absolutely impossible for you. I'll remember this debt!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Protector Huan's figure appeared in the sky outside the crowd, its speed so fast that it was breathtaking.
However, just as Protector Huan was about to flee, a pitch-black curtain suddenly appeared in the void in front of him. Then, Xiao Yan, holding a bluish-white Fire Lotus in one hand, stepped out from it with a sharp expression. Then, to the latter's terrified gaze, he pressed the Fire Lotus in his hand hard onto Protector Huan's chest.
