"Whoosh!"
As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, he took a step forward and instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning, arriving in front of the old man in yellow robes in the blink of an eye.
His figure suddenly twisted in mid-air, and a heavy whip kick, enveloped by the gale, brought with it a terrifying force that seemed to cut through everything, slammed down on the head of the old man in the yellow robe.
Xiao Yan had no goodwill towards the people of the Four Great Sects. Since both sides had chosen to stand on opposite sides, Xiao Yan naturally had no need to hold back when he attacked, and every move was aimed at taking lives.
This kind of battle is the most brutal; it's a matter of life and death, and that's fate!
Seeing that Xiao Yan attacked him without hesitation, the old man's Dou Qi changed drastically. His Dou Qi surged wildly, and as the whip kick landed above his head, the old man's body retreated rapidly. His hands almost reflexively blocked above his head, and his powerful Dou Qi condensed into a Dou Qi shield to resist Xiao Yan's attack.
"Bang!"
Although the old man's reaction was not slow, he was still a bit slower when facing Xiao Yan's Heavenly Severing Steps, a terrifying movement Dou Technique.
In the end, Xiao Yan's attack landed heavily between the old man's arms. The shield formed by Dou Qi shattered after only a brief moment. Immediately afterward, Xiao Yan's powerful leg slammed into the old man's arm.
With a single blow, the old man's body was forced to retreat rapidly backward, until he came to a stop in a disheveled state a hundred feet away.
The old man looked down with a solemn expression. He saw that the sleeves of his robe had been completely shattered in the collision, and there was a scarlet, bloody wound on each of his two thin arms.
Although the old man was caught off guard by the first clash, he could still tell from that alone that Xiao Yan's cultivation was probably no less than his own.
Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He had recently heard about Xiao Yan's deeds. Ever since he learned that the Four Great Clans families under the Heavenly Sword Sect had disappeared together in the Xilin Mountain Range, he had been filled with even more shock at Xiao Yan. He had never seen anyone who could kill seven Dou Di powerhouses single-handedly. It was simply unbelievable.
However, upon seeing Xiao Yan's strength now, which was even greater than his own, the old man gradually came to his conclusion after comparing the two.
"You're Xiao Yan?"
"Genuine or genuine."
As soon as the old man in the yellow robe finished speaking, Xiao Yan replied expressionlessly and indifferently.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, the old man in the yellow robe nodded solemnly. Then, he suddenly flipped his hand, and a white jade slip appeared in his palm. The moment it appeared, the old man in the yellow robe crushed it.
At the same time, from the huge cluster of buildings below, figures shot out rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they were already hovering in the sky, standing side by side with the old man in yellow robes, forming a line and blocking Xiao Yan's path.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan's expression did not change in the slightest. His gaze swept over the people in front of him, a smile playing on his lips.
Standing before Xiao Yan at this moment were nine Dou Di experts. Apart from the yellow-robed elder, whose strength was at the Mid-Stage Six-Star Dou Di, all the others were Five-Star Dou Di. The weakest among them had reached the Early Five-Star Dou Di, and there were even two experts at the Late Five-Star Dou Di. Such a lineup was enough to sweep away any ordinary force in the Western Region. Even any of the Four Great Sects would have to give way in the face of such a lineup.
"Your status is exceptional, and our Battle Martial Sect dares not be negligent. We have already received orders from our sect leader that if Mr. Xiao Yan attempts to pass through our Battle Martial Sect, we must stop you here no matter what!"
The old man in the yellow robe bowed slightly to Xiao Yan in a gesture of respect. Facing such a powerful figure, they had already lost face by ganging up on him, and he didn't want to lose Elder Zhang he had left.
"Hehe, easy. Since it's the order from the Sect Master of the Battle Martial Sect, let's do it. I just broke through to the Five-Star Dou Di not long ago, and I don't know where my limit is yet. Let me see it clearly."
"Are you planning to come one by one... or all at once?"
Xiao Yan raised his eyes, the smile from a moment ago vanished, replaced by a sharp glint in his now dark eyes, giving off an extremely heavy sense of oppression.
"You arrogant brat! You're just Mid Five-Star Dou Di. Let me test your skills!"
As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a burly old man from the group of nine people immediately stepped forward and glared at Xiao Yan with a fierce expression.
As soon as he uttered those words, a burst of reddish-yellow Dou Qi erupted from his body with a soft "poof," and at the same time, an aura of power belonging to a Late Five-Star Dou Di emanated from the old man.
No wonder he was so domineering. With the strength of Late Five-Star Dou Di, he really didn't take ordinary Mid Five-Star Dou Di seriously. However, he was facing Xiao Yan now.
"Drink!"
Immediately afterward, the old man's body trembled violently. As he clenched his fists, his already robust physique grew even taller. In the blink of an eye, the old man's height had increased by tens of feet. Compared to Xiao Yan at this moment, the two were like an elephant and an ant, simply incomparable.
"Oh? Physical training, huh...?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone revealing a hint of surprise.
He had indeed seen many experts who cultivated their physical bodies, but the person before him was only the second person Xiao Yan had ever seen who could unleash such power. The first was naturally the sect master of the Battle Martial Sect, Wu Jitian.
" Xiao Yan, I've heard you're also a physical cultivator. It's a pity, though; trying to do three things at once will only hinder your progress. We've dedicated ourselves to mastering physical strength, cultivating diligently for centuries. Today, I'll show you the power of our physical cultivation!"
As his physique changed, the old man's voice also became more deep and domineering. Every word he uttered seemed to cause the heavens and earth to tremble slightly. Such power truly deserved the word "terrifying."
"Hehe, then please!"
Facing the domineering old man, Xiao Yan was much simpler. He stood to the side, his left hand behind his back, and simply extended his right hand, palm up. Judging from this, there was indeed a hint of contempt in his expression.
"Court death!"
Upon seeing Xiao Yan's actions, the old man was immediately enraged. In all these years, Xiao Yan was the first person who dared to treat him like this.
However, this scene caused the old man in the yellow robe to frown slightly. Judging from his previous encounter with Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan's true combat strength was definitely no less than his own. If this burly old man dared to show disdain for Xiao Yan, the result would probably be very tragic.
Unfortunately, just as the old man in the yellow robe was thinking these things, a huge fist came crashing down on Xiao Yan.
As the giant fist loomed close, Xiao Yan's smile widened, and a flash of eerie white fire flickered in the depths of his eyes.
Immediately, Xiao Yan reached out and clenched his fist in the distance, and almost simultaneously, a large, clearly defined hand materialized in front of Xiao Yan, catching the falling fist in its grasp.
This still somewhat ethereal hand is clearly the body-refining Dou Technique that Xiao Yan is gradually developing.
Strength Elephant Art!
In the void, Xiao Yan stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm. The surging gale before him dissipated automatically before it even arrived. The huge fist was restrained by the illusory palm formed by the Strength Elephant Art. The next moment, Xiao Yan twisted his wrist and then struck out with a palm. At the same time, the figure of the Late Five-Star Dou Di expert in front of him was also shaken backward by Xiao Yan's palm.
