A chilling wind swept across the land, and the blazing sun overhead, which had seemed so intensely hot, now appeared incredibly dim.
A faint bitterness permeated the air. It wasn't a tangible smell, but rather a sense of despair mixed with helplessness. This bitterness came from the depths of one's heart, resembling despair and perhaps even terror.
Between heaven and earth, countless desolate gazes, in various forms, were fixed on the black figure standing proudly between heaven and earth, and the large black ruler in his hand.
Everyone's eyes were filled with horror, fear, and despair...
Who could have imagined that someone whose strength seemed to be among the weakest of everyone in the world could suppress all of them, these hundreds of Half-Emperor? Even when they exerted their full strength, they remained unmoved in the eyes of this black-robed youth.
Even after defeating so many Half-Emperor, Xiao Yan's eyes remained calm and composed, as if the current situation was perfectly reasonable.
However, he had no idea how astonishing it was to everyone in the city.
"Bang!"
With a twist of his wrist, the giant ruler swept across, and Xiao Yan once again mercilessly blasted away a Nine-Star Half-Emperor. As the bang resounded, the face of the nine-star half-emperor turned deathly pale.
Struck by the heavy blow, the Nine-Star Half-Emperor immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood. At the same time, his body was sent flying uncontrollably. The originally powerful Dou Qi in his body was forcibly dispersed under Xiao Yan's giant ruler and was no longer under his control for a short period of time.
After doing all this, Xiao Yan slowly raised his gaze, his dark eyes reflecting the brilliant firelight. When Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the few dozen remaining Half-Emperor, they couldn't help but tremble and quickly retreat. Anyone whose gaze was fixed on by Xiao Yan felt a chill run through them, cold sweat pouring uncontrollably from their bodies, and their fear was beyond words.
At this moment, Xiao Yan before them was like a god of death. Even though he hadn't actually killed anyone, his domineering and fierce aura had completely destroyed the dignity in the hearts of all the Half-Emperor present.
"Call..."
Only at this moment did Xiao Yan's tense body relax slightly. Instantly, a feeling of weakness surged from the depths of his body. Xiao Yan's complexion, which had remained unchanged for nearly an hour, finally turned pale at this moment.
Having been at his peak for so long, Xiao Yan's combat power became extremely strong, enough to suppress the hundreds of Half-Emperor present. However, what followed was bound to be a long period of decline.
This scene immediately filled all the Half-Emperor present with joy. They had never expected that Xiao Yan, who had been so dominant for an hour, would eventually have this moment of weakness.
"Hahahaha! The opportunity has arrived! I thought this guy was truly invincible, but it turns out he was just pretending, putting on airs. Hmph, now it's time for us to finish you off! Hahahaha!"
Immediately, the dozens of Half-Emperor surrounding Xiao Yan, who had originally looked terrified, suddenly displayed a frenzied expression on their faces.
Xiao Yan's change in expression seemed to give them a glimmer of hope for victory. In the blink of an eye, the expressions on the faces of dozens of Half-Emperor became excited, and the Dou Qi within their bodies surged even more fiercely at this moment.
"Haha! This kid's almost done for. Let's all attack together! If we can keep wearing him down for a little longer, he'll surely become our prisoner!"
"Haha! Second-tier pills! I'll get second-tier pills soon! Haha, Xiao Yan, don't blame us for being too ruthless. If you accidentally die, we won't be responsible! Haha!"
As the laughter subsided, some of the Half-Emperor who had originally planned to withdraw turned their gazes back into the void. Even those Half-Emperor who had been blasted down by Xiao Yan's Heavy Xuan Ruler got up from the ground, their bodies straining against the elements. With a thought, their Dou Qi surged forth once more.
Between heaven and earth, countless sharp gazes shot towards Xiao Yan, filled with greed, and the weapons in their hands reflected a chilling gleam under the sunlight.
Unbeknownst to them, even the air was filled with a faint smell of blood, as if an invisible battle was taking place silently.
"Drink! Xiao Yan, prepare to die!"
At a certain moment, a powerful expert in the arena, whose strength had reached the Peak of the Late Eight-Star Half-Emperor Stage, suddenly moved. The pair of curved blades he held in his hands immediately slashed through the void, and the blade light flew towards Xiao Yan with a fierce slash.
Following closely behind, nearly a hundred figures also moved swiftly, each one cautiously shooting towards Xiao Yan.
As the weapon was swung, countless streaks of Dou Qi qi streaked across the void like meteors, launching a combined attack directly at Xiao Yan.
At this moment, Xiao Yan, surrounded by the crowd, appeared calm on his face. His dark eyes showed no emotion, and deep within them, brilliant flames gradually condensed into a flaming wheel that slowly rotated.
Immediately afterward, Xiao Yan ignored the hundred figures rushing towards him. Instead, with a thought, a dazzling Heavenly Flames rose up in his palm with a "poof," and then, following the change in Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan thoughts, it rapidly condensed in his palm.
At the same time, the Dou Qi within Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan surged out of his body like it was free, transforming into streaks of fire as thick as a human wrist, swirling around his body and rapidly converging with the flame wheel in his palm.
Immediately afterward, when the countless Dou Qi arrived within a ten-zhang radius of Xiao Yan, the expression on Xiao Yan's calm face suddenly turned fierce. Then, he clenched his outstretched hand, and the flame wheel that had not yet fully condensed in his hand was fiercely grasped in Xiao Yan's palm.
With a thought, all the remaining Dou Qi in Xiao Yan's Xiao Yan burst forth from his palm and rapidly flowed into the Flame Wheel in his hand.
The next moment, as Xiao Yan slowly raised his eyes, his pale face became indifferent, even icy.
At the same time, Xiao Yan slowly opened his clenched hand, and a dazzling flame wheel the size of a palm appeared in Xiao Yan palm.
"Buddha's wrath... reincarnation..."
