Facing three Nine-Star Dou Di powerhouses at the same time, even Xiao Yan in his current state would not dare to fight them head-on.
Let alone all three, Xiao Yan wouldn't dare say he could fight any one of them.
"Laugh..."
With a whooshing sound, an old man in black robes descended rapidly above Xiao Yan's head, his withered hand slamming down heavily on Xiao Yan's head.
Feeling the terrifying aura descending from above, Xiao Yan's heart trembled. He shifted his feet and unleashed the Heavenly Severing Steps Annihilation Step in succession, which allowed the old Xiao Yan's palm to barely graz his body.
"This kid... his speed is unbelievable."
Seeing that Xiao Yan had dodged his attack, the old man was surprised. Just as he was muttering to himself, Yan He's figure attacked again from Xiao Yan's side.
The two were extremely close, leaving Xiao Yan no time to dodge, so he had no choice but to confront them head-on.
"Bang!"
The moment Xiao Yan turned around, his fist collided heavily with Yan He He's attack.
A deafeningly loud collision suddenly rang out, Xiao Yan's body trembled uncontrollably. Using the force between the two, he quickly retreated.
But then...
"Boy, where do you think you're going! Stay here, old man!"
The other Nine-Star Dou Di arrived behind Xiao Yan Xiao Yan as he retreated rapidly, and struck him from behind with a palm.
Damn it!
Given Xiao Yan's current state, he simply couldn't dodge this attack completely. Indeed, facing three Nine-Star Dou Di alone was impossible; at least, he was far from having that kind of strength.
"Drink!"
With a sharp shout in his heart, Xiao Yan's muscles tensed up instantly, his usually calm face suddenly contorted into a ferocious expression, and his face flushed crimson with blood.
Veins bulged, Ancient Dragon Phoenix Armor instantly covered his entire body, emitting a purple-gold light. He had no choice but to defend against this attack with all his might.
" Strength Elephant Art, rise!"
A roar erupted from the depths of his heart, and a terrifying force spread outwards. The invisible void around Xiao Yan twisted violently under this terrifying force, almost collapsing.
Almost simultaneously, the old man behind him also struck Xiao Yan's back with a powerful palm strike.
"Bang!"
A dull thud suddenly rang out, and Xiao Yan's body jolted violently. He gritted his teeth and forcefully withstood the powerful force.
A sweet taste rose in his throat, and blood rushed to his head. Xiao Yan forced back the blood that was rising in his throat. Then, his Dou Qi surged out and, under the influence of the Heavenly Flames, forced the three people around him back.
"Hmph, so what if it's Heavenly Flames? Let's all attack together and leave him here!"
The three men's expressions changed slightly at first, and then they let out a cold snort. The three of them moved together and surrounded Xiao Yan again. However, this time, with the Heavenly Flames in front of them, even with their strength, they still took the initiative to keep a small distance from Xiao Yan.
Four figures moved back and forth in the void. Three of them kept brushing past Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, who relied on his Spiritual Strength and the Heavenly Severing Steps to try his best to deal with them and find an opportunity to leave.
Facing three Nine-Star Dou Di alone, Xiao Yan knew he could never be a match for them, and that it would do him no good in the long run.
Moreover, the people from the Formation Master Association are also eyeing him covetously. Once they leave the auction house, Xiao Yan will truly be unable to leave even if he wants to.
With this in mind, Xiao Yan's movements became even more agile. However, these three Nine-Star Dou Di were no ordinary people. With their combined efforts, they managed to block Xiao Yan within this area, preventing him from advancing or retreating.
After a while, despite being protected by the Heavenly Flames, the three people around him could not easily hurt Xiao Yan, but they still left many wounds on his body. The bright red blood that gushed out turned into dried scabs under the Heavenly Flames.
As time passed, Xiao Yan's scars continued to increase, and his blood gradually transformed into a layer of armor, covering Xiao Yan entire body.
In the auction hall, figures gradually emerged, and the auction was truly coming to an end. However, Xiao Yan's troubles seemed to be like a persistent leech, impossible to shake off.
In the blink of an eye, the amplification effect of the Clan Mark disappeared, and Xiao Yan's strength also dropped sharply at this moment. Given Xiao Yan's current situation, this undoubtedly made his mood even heavier.
However, at that very moment, a strange change occurred in the vast square.
"Click!"
With a crisp cracking sound, just a few meters directly below Xiao Yan stood the pitch-black stone pillar.
At that moment, a cracking sound rang out, as crisp as porcelain shattering, and it was exceptionally clear in the square.
Immediately, everyone present was slightly taken aback, including the three Nine-Star Dou Di were standing in the void, and Xiao Yan, who was closest to the black stone pillar. Their expressions were somewhat astonished.
Immediately afterward, when everyone in the world turned their gaze toward the source of the sound, they saw clear cracks rapidly spreading across the entire stone pillar.
Golden rays of light surged out from the dense cracks, like a blazing sun, dazzling and radiant.
At this moment, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly changed drastically.
At this moment, he finally understood Qin Yun's true purpose in bringing him here, and even the latter's motives for approaching him became crystal clear.
Qin Yun came precisely because of this strange formation.
His purpose in entering Golden Radiance City from the very beginning was to destroy this stone pillar!
Then his approach to his answer became clear.
Almost simultaneously, at the entrance of the auction house, a group of figures dressed in gold cannons gradually emerged.
At first glance, the group saw through the crowd the black stone pillar in the center of the square, which was filled with countless cracks. Then, to their astonishment, the black stone pillar collapsed with a bang, turning into pieces of debris.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a powerful surge of energy erupted from beneath the shattered stone pillar, transforming into a massive, milky-white beam of light that plunged into the sky.
Almost simultaneously, the already unhappy faces of the group from the Formation Master Association turned grim, and their gazes locked onto the figure closest to the original location of the stone pillar.
It was Xiao Yan!
