Facing Yan again.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Yan abandoned his previous retreating tactics and charged towards Yan's location.
"Call out!"
Facing the giant lava ball that Yan was about to condense and throw, Xiao Yan's eyes remained calm. He thrust his ice crystal spear at an extremely tricky angle from bottom to top towards Yan's chest.
"Bite!"
A hard, tangible sensation came as the ice crystal spear pressed against Yan's chest.
However, Yan's body was already encased in rock, making it incredibly hard.
However, Xiao Yan's purpose in this attack was not to harm Yan, but rather...
Although the rock protecting Yan's chest was incredibly hard, the strength in Xiao Yan's hands was no joke.
He gripped the spear and pressed it forcefully against Yan's chest, forcing him back.
Taking advantage of the commotion from his fight with Ye Yan, Cold Fire appeared, and two illusory chains spread out from beneath Xiao Yan's feet to one side.
" Cold Fire - Netherworld Lock!"
The fight with Yan was a ruse; Xiao Yan wanted to use Yan's attack to catch them off guard. If he could reduce Yan's team by one member, that would be perfect.
"Laugh!"
The person closest to Xiao Yan and Yan at this moment was none other than Ke Wei from Yan's team.
Ke Wei's Martial Soul is the Tool Martial Soul Demon-Slaying Blade, a long blade about the length of an arm, which shimmers with an eerie green light.
At this moment, feeling the two chains controlled by Xiao Yan wrapping around him, a flash of anger appeared in Ke Wei's eyes.
Isn't Xiao Yan being incredibly arrogant?
" Demon-Breaking Slash!"
Yellow Soul Ring appeared beneath Ke Wei's feet, and a faint glow emanated from the Demon-Slaying Blade in his hand.
Seeing the two chains of Cold Fire enveloping him, Ke Wei immediately slashed down at them.
"Don't want!"
Yan naturally noticed Xiao Yan's actions as well, and launched the giant lava ball in his hand towards Xiao Yan, exclaiming in surprise in the direction of Ke Wei.
Xiao Yan didn't tell everyone about the strangeness of his martial soul, nor did he expect that Xiao Yan would actually attack others at this time.
Xiao Yan's strength was already considerable, and even if someone was a whole realm higher than him, it would be extremely difficult for them to shatter his Netherworld Lock.
Yan had personally experienced this.
Previously, he relied on his Fifth Soul Skill, the Sacrificial Fire, to enhance his power, which enabled him to directly shatter Xiao Yan's chains. However, Ke Wei clearly does not possess such strength now.
"Laugh!"
A dark, ominous blade of light whistled from the Demon-Slaying Blade in Ke Wei's hand, striking the Cold Fire Chains with a crisp sound, and then... nothing more.
The chains trembled slightly under the attack, but left no gaps.
The two chains contracted, enveloping Ke Wei's figure within them.
Xiao Yan also felt the attack that Yan was about to land on him from behind.
However, having finally obtained this opportunity, Xiao Yan wouldn't let Ke Wei go so easily.
"Laugh!"
Without turning his head, Xiao Yan hurled his ice crystal spear at the giant lava ball launched by Yan, creating a gust of Han Feng.
Within the area of Everfrost Mausoleum, the cacophony of screams converged, emanating from the location where Chao Yan was standing.
"Boom!"
The ice crystal spear shattered upon contact with the lava sphere, and the subsequent sonic wave further reduced the power of Yan's attack.
"Boom!"
However, the massive fireball still struck Xiao Yan's back and exploded with a deafening roar.
Blinding flames filled the air, and from within them, Xiao Yan's figure roared out, gritting his teeth as he appeared before Ke Wei.
The Netherworld Lock had just subdued Ke Wei, and its icy aura froze Ke Wei's reactions.
" Eight Extremes Collapse!"
The elbow slammed into Ke Wei's chest, Ke Wei's face pale instantly, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His body, which was controlled by the Netherworld Lock, was also sent flying backward, landing in a corner of the arena, his aura weakened.
Seeing Ke Wei being blasted away by his own eyes, Xiao Yan's face also turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Soul Armor that had been formed on Xiao Yan's body shattered completely under Yan's attack, and even Xiao Yan suffered serious injuries.
His fighting style was extremely risky. After all, it's unlikely anyone would be bold enough to withstand the Soul King's attack and then attack Ke Wei.
However, the effect of doing so was also very obvious.
Ke Wei from Yan's team was directly eliminated by Xiao Yan!
Even if the opponent has a support Soul Master, Ke Wei's injuries will not be of any use in the short term.
" Han Yueyue, won't you let me witness the power of the Ancient Tree of Life?"
Withdrawing his gaze from Ke Wei, Xiao Yan spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
Ke Wei's appearance caused the entire arena to freeze. No one expected that Xiao Yan, who was being held back by Yan, would still be able to free up his hands and eliminate Ke Wei directly!
Seeing the blood Xiao Yan coughed up, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes turned cold as she looked at Qi Shan in front of her, where pale red mist gathered at her feet.
" Hell Stab!"
Using her speed advantage, Zhu Zhuqing closed in on Qi Shan once again, her claws reaching for his head.
" Tiger Roars in the Mountain Forest!"
The yellow light flickered slowly, and a golden light burst forth from Qi Shan's body. The phantom of the Black Tiger behind him roared towards Zhu Zhuqing's location, and invisible sound waves enveloped her.
The previously elusive figure was now revealed.
Qi Shan then took a step forward and resumed his fight with Zhu Zhuqing.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Han Yueyue snapped out of her shock and quickly exclaimed, "Okay!"
His eyes were filled with excitement, and he looked at Xiao Yan, who was panting in front of him, with an expression of admiration.
" Ripple of Life!"
A faint ray of colored light descended from the ancient tree phantom behind Han Yueyu and then merged into Xiao Yan's body.
As the ripple merged, Xiao Yan could clearly feel the pain in his back ease considerably, and his Soul Power recovered by about half.
" Tree God's Protection!"
But all this was not the end. A purple Soul Ring lit up from Han Yueyue's body, and a thread spread out from the Ancient Tree of Life, landing directly on Xiao Yan.
" Xiao Yan, the Tree God's Protection will last for half an hour. During this time, your Soul Power recovery speed will double, and some of the injuries you suffer will be reflected back to the ancient tree, reducing the damage to your physical body!"
As Han Yueyue finished speaking, a smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face.
His gaze swept over several other battlefields.
Feng Yang blocked An Hanfu's attack. As Control System Soul Master, Feng Yang perfectly countered An Hanfu. If the two continued to fight, An Hanfu would definitely be the one to lose in the end.
Meanwhile, Wan Yunfan, who had broken through the defenses of Yan's team, was wielding his Nine-Ring Shadow-Slaying Blade, which landed squarely on Qiu Zijing's Black and Yellow Stele.
Although Qiu Zijing's strength was not as great as Wan Yunfan's, he could withstand the attack thanks to the thick-skinned Black and Yellow Stele.
" Jade Leaves Reach the Heavens!"
Just as Xiao Yan was surveying the battlefield, a clear, cold voice rang out, followed by a burst of green light.
Within Yan's team, Xu Chengying, as a support Soul Master, began to exert his power!
