Above the desolate mountain forest, a figure as swift as lightning charged toward an old man in a yellow robe in the void.
Wherever the figure passed, the invisible void twisted and contorted, and then collapsed with a muffled thud.
The terrifying force, even without the slightest bit of Dou Qi aura, was still incredibly powerful!
Such power is truly terrifying!
Even the old man in the yellow robe was shocked by what he saw. His Elder Zhang face was extremely solemn, and beads of cold sweat were uncontrollably pouring out from all over his body.
From the moment Xiao Yan let out that earth-shattering dragon roar, the old man in the yellow robe couldn't help but tremble with fear. Was the person before him truly human?
How could a human body possibly withstand such terrifying power, or even utter a dragon's roar? That is the symbol of the Dragon Clan!
Who exactly is this young man in black robes?!
Although he had a thousand questions in his mind, unfortunately, the old man in yellow robes had no time to care. Xiao Yan had already made his move, and if he did not retaliate, wouldn't he become a laughing stock? How could a powerful expert at the Late-stage Eight-Star Dou Di be afraid of a Five-Star Dou Di who was already seriously injured!
Even with the power boost from consuming the Long Lin Fruit, the old man in the yellow robe didn't believe he would lose to Xiao Yan, who was Eight-Star Dou Di.
Moreover, besides being an Eight-Star Dou Di, he is also a physical cultivator. Even if his physical strength is not as great as Xiao Yan's at the moment, he is not afraid of the former.
"Boy, let this old man see just how much power your strange body can unleash after consuming the Long Lin Fruit!"
The old man in the yellow robe stared arrogantly at Xiao Yan, who was charging towards him. As he roared, his Dou Qi surged outwards, condensing into a crimson-yellow Dou Qi Armor.
After doing all this, the old man quickly raised his hands to his chest, his ten fingers moving in unison to form hand seals, followed by a long roar to the sky.
"Drink! Half-step Savage Beast Art!"
As the long roar was uttered, an invisible, terrifying force rapidly condensed on the old man's body. The invisible power continued to converge, almost tangible, and at a glance, it looked like a wild bear. However, the wild bear could only cover the old man's left half of his body. Perhaps this was what he meant by "half a step".
"Roar!"
As the Savage Beast Art was unleashed, the half-bear on the old man's body let out a bloodthirsty roar. Then, as the black figure in front of him drew closer, the old man suddenly moved, his feet stomping heavily on the void. He then charged forward, colliding violently with the oncoming black figure.
"Boom!"
Terrifying energy ripples spread out from the two of them, instantly sweeping away the wind and clouds in the world. Neither of them would give way, their auras fierce and their powerful Dou Qi and physical strength were evenly matched with Xiao Yan's simple brute force!
This attack was a draw!
"This guy's physical strength has actually reached this level!"
The old man in the yellow robe frowned, a solemn expression appearing on his aged face. Such powerful physical strength was truly unbelievable.
"Kid, is that all you've got?!"
Despite his heavy heart, the old man in the yellow robe did not back down in the slightest. At the same time, the power of his hands, which he swung forward, became even more ferocious, as if he wanted to force Xiao Yan back.
"I'm not sure how much power I have, but your power is probably only this much!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan sneered, his expression instantly turning fierce. As the power in the latter's hands increased, his clenched fists suddenly trembled, and two enormous forces surged into his palms from his arms. The terrifying force poured outwards, unstoppable, easily destroying the power that had just gathered in the old man's palms.
"Bang!"
Immediately afterward, another muffled thud echoed between the two, and the old man in the yellow robe was sent flying backward almost uncontrollably. He finally managed to stop abruptly a hundred feet away, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The old man looked up, his eyes filled with terror. He couldn't believe that Xiao Yan was so powerful in front of him, Late-stage Eight-Star Dou Di. He was no match for him at all!
"This... how is this possible!"
On the other side, Xiao Yan stood proudly in the void, his whole body brimming with fighting spirit. The surging power within him continuously spread outward, impacting the originally calm void around him.
Continuous spatial ripples spread out around Xiao Yan, his powerful physical strength causing even the unmoving, invisible void to tremble.
Now, after consuming the Long Lin Fruit, Xiao Yan's physical strength has already been greatly enhanced. Under the influence of the Long Lin Fruit, Xiao Yan's physical strength has reached the maximum limit that he can currently withstand.
Furthermore, with the perfected Strength Elephant Art, the combination of the two made Xiao Yan's physical strength reach an unimaginably terrifying level!
Such a physical body is already comparable to that of an ordinary Nine-Star Dou Di!
Beneath that seemingly frail body lies a power that few in the entire Western Region can rival!
" Eight-Star Dou Di is nothing special."
Xiao Yan gave a faint sneer. The amplification effect brought to him by the Strength Elephant Art was even stronger than he had imagined. He originally thought that even if he Strength Elephant Art Technique, he could only raise his combat power to the Late-stage Eight-Star Dou Di at most. But to his surprise, he actually reached the Early-Stage Nine-Star Dou Di. Perhaps this was also thanks to the effect of the Long Lin Fruit.
Under the powerful impact of the Long Lin Fruit, the Strength Elephant Art was further enhanced to its original maximum extent. Perhaps it was for this reason that Xiao Yan's combat power was greatly improved.
"Boy, don't be so arrogant. So what if you devoured the Long Lin Fruit? With your severely injured body, continuing like this for so long will only worsen your injuries. You're digging your own grave!"
"Heh, you know I devoured the Long Lin Fruit, so do you think you don't know what changes have occurred to my body?"
Faced with the old man in yellow robes' angry shout, Xiao Yan grinned coldly, his words filled with disdain.
Such despicable methods are truly appalling.
"Well..."
As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, the old man in the yellow robe's eyes narrowed, and his expression clearly froze for a moment. Then, as if he had thought of something, the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched violently.
"Damn it! So what if that's the case? Five-Star Dou Di is still Five-Star Dou Di. In front of Eight-Star Dou Di, he's nothing but an ant!"
The old man in the yellow robe roared in resentment. He couldn't believe that with his cultivation as Eight-Star Dou Di, he couldn't even handle a seriously injured Five-Star Dou Di. If word got out, how could he ever face anyone in the Western Region again?
"Boy, I refuse to believe that without your Dou Qi, your mere physical body can withstand my Dou Technique!"
The old man was furious. He unleashed his Dou Qi without reservation, rapidly forming hand seals. In a few flashes, he arrived in front of Xiao Yan.
With a flick of his wrists, he transformed his hands into palms, which slammed down hard on Xiao Yan's chest from both sides.
Faced with the old man in yellow robes' fierce attack, Xiao Yan advanced instead of retreating. He clenched his fists, his body suddenly trembled, and an invisible protective aura condensed on his body, forming a slightly illusory protective shield. At the same time, he swung his fists, charging head-on into the old man's Dou Technique.
"Clang clang clang clang!"
Intense collisions echoed continuously in the void. Xiao Yan and the old man in yellow robes exchanged blows, fist to fist and palm to palm. The earth-shattering explosions resounded in the void, causing the invisible void to crack and collapse time and time again. However, the battle between the two remained undecided for a long time.
Until a certain moment...
"Bang!"
Xiao Yan and the old man in yellow robes each threw a punch at the other's chest. The powerful Dou Technique shattered the invisible protective shield around Xiao Yan's body, and the punches landed on Xiao Yan's chest with undiminished force.
At the same time, Xiao Yan's powerful punch struck the old man's Dou Technique armor, and the same scene unfolded.
The old man in the yellow robe glared at him, and his fist, which was about to strike Xiao Yan's chest, suddenly trembled. A surge of fighting Dou Qi immediately burst forth from his palm, intending to blast Xiao Yan back with a single blow.
However...
"Buzzing..."
After the surging Dou Qi energy bombarded Xiao Yan, it only stirred up a violent ripple of Dou Qi on Xiao Yan's body. The Dou Qi of the yellow-robed old man was actually dissolved by Xiao Yan with the help of the Strength Elephant Art!
"What! This kid's physical body is actually..."
Upon witnessing this scene, the old man in the yellow robe felt a jolt in his heart; Xiao Yan had brought him far too much shock.
"Hehe, I'll do it."
Xiao Yan smiled coldly, and his outstretched arm suddenly trembled, unleashing a terrifying force that poured out from within, like the Yellow River bursting its banks, slamming heavily into the chest of the yellow-robed elder.
"Bang!"
With a low, explosive bang, the old man in the yellow robe instantly turned into shreds, his pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints, his Elder Zhang turned bright red, and blood gushed uncontrollably from his mouth. His body arched backward in an instant, and then, like a cannonball, he was sent flying backward with a bang.
Standing still, Xiao Yan withdrew his fist with a cold smile, lightly twisted his wrist with one hand, and looked satisfied.
