Just as Xiao Yan was about to raise his hand to push aside the large door in front of the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion, a cold shout suddenly came from behind him.
His words carried an arrogant tone; though he hadn't seen the man, one could tell he was no pushover. Frowning slightly, Xiao Yan slowly turned around, his gaze immediately landing on a young man. Their eyes met, and then he said calmly:
"Who are you?"
" Xiao Clan, Xiao Tian."
The young man raised his chin slightly and said in a cold voice.
" Nine-Star Origin Emperor, not bad cultivation level."
Nodding slightly, Xiao Yan glanced at him up and down, gave a light chuckle and an evaluation, then turned away, pushed open the door of the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion, and was about to step inside.
"Stop right there! Don't you understand what I'm saying? You're not allowed in here!"
Seeing that Xiao Yan completely ignored what he had said earlier, Xiao Tian's face immediately darkened. He stomped his foot on the ground and charged forward, appearing behind Xiao Yan in the blink of an eye, grabbing at his shoulder.
"Buzz!"
Just as Xiao Tian's palm struck down, Xiao Yan's shoulder trembled slightly, and a surge of power immediately erupted from his body, instantly blasting Xiao Tian's figure back. Xiao Yan's foot, which was about to land in the pavilion, stopped and he withdrew it. Then he turned around, looked at Xiao Tian who had been blasted back dozens of feet, and said in a slightly deep tone:
Whether I am a member of the Xiao Clan or not is not for you to judge, nor is it up to you to decide whether I am qualified to enter the Heaven-Nurturing Pavilion. However... if you are looking for trouble, I am happy to oblige.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan took a slow step forward. The aura covering his body increased with each step, and his chilling gaze fell on the latter.
After what happened the day before, Xiao Yan was now very clear that if he wanted to gain a foothold in the Xiao Clan, the most effective way was to constantly prove himself, defeat all the opponents, and then the right to speak would naturally fall into his hands. Today, let's take Xiao Tian as a good start!
Feeling Xiao Yan's gaze, Xiao Tian's heart skipped a beat. He then let out a cold snort, his gaze suddenly turning icy, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.
" Xiao Yan, I know you are from the Yuan Zong, but while others may fear you, I do not. I've heard you defeated Xiao Chuhang, so today, let me see just how capable you really are!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, becoming curious about Xiao Chuhang's status within the Xiao Clan. Was this guy perhaps the benchmark for the strength of the younger generation of the Xiao Clan? Why did everyone mention him before taking action?
As soon as the shout fell, Xiao Tian's body trembled violently, and crimson flames immediately erupted from every pore of his body, covering his entire body in the blink of an eye. The intense heat also made the air in this area instantly become much drier.
" The Great Dao Technique: Raging Flames and Surging Waves!"
As Xiao Tian's palms formed hand seals, flame curtains instantly condensed in the void around him, covering his body one after another. Surprisingly, what condensed on Xiao Tian's body under the enhancement of these flame curtains was not a powerful Dou Technique, but rather an extremely strong energy aura.
With the support of this energy, Xiao Tian's cultivation level actually crossed the boundary of Origin Emperor and reached the level of Yuan Zong Sect. The raging flames burned wildly on his body, and Xiao Tian's aura became more and more terrifying as the flames condensed. In the end, his aura even approached that of Three-Star Yuan Zong!
"It's actually Great Dao Technique that can enhance one's own strength? That's truly terrifying..."
A wave of amazement washed over him. Xiao Yan had never imagined that such an astonishing Great Dao Technique existed in the world, capable of allowing a Peak Origin Emperor to leapfrog nearly three stars in cultivation!
The Great Dao Technique are different from ordinary Dou Technique. They become more and more powerful as the cultivator's strength and the Power of the Great Dao increase. If the Great Dao Technique they are currently using are equivalent to the power of the Intent Class Dou Technique, then when Xiao Tian's strength is fully developed in the future, the amplification brought by his Great Dao Technique will be unimaginable!
" Xiao Yan, let's fight!"
Crimson flames filled Xiao Tian's eyes, the glassy flames seeming like a god scrutinizing heaven and earth, carrying an unparalleled arrogant aura that made it hard to breathe.
"I must say, your Great Dao Technique is the most astonishing I've ever witnessed. But unfortunately, flames are useless against me..."
"Hmph, arrogant fool! The reason Xiao Chuhang lost to you was simply because he was weak. Since his Wind God's Fury couldn't defeat you, then today I will use Fire God's Wrath to establish the divine might of my Xiao Clan!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Tian snorted coldly. As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly raised both palms, his ten fingers moving in unison, and towering flames surged up immediately. Behind him, a huge crimson phantom also rapidly condensed.
" Fire God's Wrath!"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but shake his head slightly and shrug helplessly. Then he slowly raised his right hand, opened his palm, and with a thought, a ball of light purple flame rose into his palm with a "poof".
Almost instantly, an invisible and eerie aura swept out, and in the already scorching void, it was as if a layer of raging flames was burning, and the entire world became so dry that it seemed about to explode!
"Buzz!"
The moment Xiao Tian saw the flame in Xiao Yan's palm, his expression froze. His eyes, like copper bells, stared at the flame, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"This is... Heavenly Flames?!"
Upon uttering the words "Heavenly Flames, "Xiao Tian felt his heart skip a beat, and the shock he felt was indescribable.
Although he knew that Xiao Yan was a powerful expert of the Yuan Zong, he was unaware that the latter actually possessed a Heavenly Flames, the most elusive power in this world!
"Hmph, so what if it's Heavenly Flames? It'll only provoke the Fire God's Wrath!"
Although shocked, the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released. The Fire God's Wrath was already formed. If they stopped now, what difference would it make from running away!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, then lightly stomped his foot on the ground. With a thought, a sharp and domineering golden light suddenly rose up, instantly condensing into a Vajra giant. The purple flames in his palm also burst open with a "poof," turning into a sky full of purple flames that quickly enveloped the golden body.
The Giant Elephant Art, in Xiao Yan's current state, is merely a matter of a single thought.
Looking at the approaching Fire God's Wrath, blazing with raging flames, Xiao Yan took a light step forward. His huge palm clenched in mid-air, and purple flames immediately condensed in his palm, enveloping his entire fist. Without any Dou Technique, he simply relied on the power of the Heavenly Flames to throw a punch forward.
"Bang!"
When the two collided, the terrifying force contained in the fist erupted instantly, and the raging purple flames poured out like a Hai Xiao, directly engulfing all the power of the Fire God's Wrath. Not only that, but with the power of a single punch, the Fire God's Wrath was shattered in just a few breaths!
"Bang..."
With the Fire God's Wrath broken, Xiao Tian's figure was also uncontrollably blasted away by the remaining force. If Xiao Yan hadn't held back, this single attack would have been enough to seriously injure him.
Just as Xiao Tian was knocked back by Xiao Yan's punch, a slightly withered hand unexpectedly landed on his shoulder. The powerful impact that should have landed on him was easily neutralized by another force.
