347: Semi-Saint Ancient Pupil, activate clan pattern!

Gu Tong's words were like a giant rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples.

"Is he going to Breakthrough to Half-Saint?"

Xiao Yan was instantly shocked, his gaze filled with worry as it fell on Lin Xiu.

"Half-Saint, this is a bit troublesome."

Mang Tianchi also couldn't help but feel worried for Lin Xiu; it wasn't that he didn't trust Lin Xiu, but rather, this thought arose completely subconsciously.

On the Dou Qi Continent, anyone who could be associated with the word "Saint" was not simple.

"This is more like it. If the dignified Black Submergence King couldn't even defeat a mere academy student, it would be a joke if word got out about the Gu Family's Black Annihilation Army."

Hun Ya let out a breath, and the smile returned to his originally somewhat solemn face.

Gu Family's seating area.

Gu Shan also let out a sigh of relief. "You brat, you should have Breakthrough long ago, but you waited until now. The tradition of the Black Submergence King being at least a Half-Saint has finally not been broken."

Half-Saint is a level between the Peak of Nine-Revolving Dou Zun and a One-Star Dou Sheng.

Because Dou Sheng is too difficult to Breakthrough, many people may be stuck at the Peak of Nine-Revolving Dou Zun or Half-Saint their entire lives.

Therefore, below Dou Sheng, a Half-Saint possesses absolute power and can completely suppress a Dou Zun.

No matter what reliance you have, the suppression of the Half-Saint Realm is something you absolutely cannot resist.

Gu Shan sneered as he swept his gaze over Lin Xiu in mid-air, then his vision passed through the barrier and landed on Mang Tianchi.

Seeing that Mang Tianchi still hadn't shown any panic, he sneered repeatedly in his heart.

You're putting on quite an act. I wonder if you'll still have that expression after you lose later.

A large expanse of Dou Qi energy appeared in the Void Realm, converging on Gu Tong, quickly forming a vortex.

At the center of the vortex, Gu Tong's aura grew increasingly stronger and heavier.

A pressure even more terrifying than before emanated from his body, spreading outwards.

"This is the foundation of an Emperor Dou Family."

"With Bloodline amplification, becoming a Half-Saint, which takes many people a lifetime, is not difficult for them."

"To Breakthrough to Half-Saint at this age, it's not just about Bloodline; it also requires Cultivation resources and Cultivation Techniques. These things are all indispensable."

Those forces who came to watch the coming-of-age ceremony showed envious gazes.

One must know that the existence of a Half-Saint could almost guarantee the continuation of a Sect or force for a very long time, constantly maintaining their hegemonic status.

"Lin Xiu is going to use the Fire Lotus now, isn't he?"

Yao Chen's expression was somewhat solemn; even in his prime, he wasn't confident in dealing with a Half-Saint.

"What Fire Lotus?"

Mang Tianchi turned his head and asked. Could it be Lin Xiu's trump card for dealing with a Half-Saint?

"Dean, it's the Furious Buddha Lotus Flame I used before."

Xiao Yan, feeling the gazes on him, explained, "The Fire Lotus is formed by the Fusion of flames. Senior has at least four types of heavenly flames. If the Fusion is successful, its power will be extraordinary."

Mang Tianchi frowned upon hearing this. Heavenly flame Fusion? Could that thing even be fused? It was simply nonsense.

Heavenly flames are rare in heaven and earth, with a total of twenty-three types recorded.

Each type of heavenly flame is the king of all flames. Even an ordinary Dou Sheng is not confident in simultaneously mastering two or even three types of heavenly flames.

He really hadn't expected Lin Xiu to have as many as four types of such dangerous things in his body?!

"No, how can heavenly flames be fused?"

Mang Tianchi prepared to stop him.

Xiao Yan was startled, then quickly said, "Dean, Senior won't be in danger. He's used this move to blast people from the Hall of Souls many times."

"Are you not joking?"

Mang Tianchi stopped his movements, his expression serious.

Xiao Yan also nodded seriously.

Gu Shan, who had been constantly watching this side, saw Mang Tianchi's actions and a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Finally, you can't sit still? I thought you were going to keep up the act for how long."

"Lin Xiu, you can admit defeat now; it's not too late. I originally didn't plan to Breakthrough so early. With just Nine-Star Dou Zun, you were able to push me to this extent, so losing is not shameful."

Gu Tong slowly opened his eyes, feeling the abundant power within his body, and seeing Lin Xiu's slight frown, he spoke from the bottom of his heart.

Everything he said was true. He had originally thought it was just a simple arena match and hadn't considered relying on Breakthrough and Realm suppression to win.

Although such a method was somewhat disgraceful, Teacher Gu Shan rarely made demands of him, so he absolutely could not lose.

"No need, you make your move."

Lin Xiu was somewhat surprised, but he wouldn't give up now. After all, he had fought Half-Saints before.

Even without using the Guiyuan Forbidden Extinction Method, the Fire Lotus formed by five types of heavenly flames should be able to win.

Moreover, he also had an advantage in Soul, which was also a terrifying Sharp Weapon that could ignore Realm.

The reason he frowned was that he was considering if there was a better way, assuming he didn't have to use these methods.

Because even if these two methods could win, it seemed like it would only be a simple victory in the competition and wouldn't help him enter the Sky Tomb.

Receiving the answer, Gu Tong formed a seal again, and that terrifying aura of extinguishing all life force surged out from his body.

Instantly, this world solidified. Although it didn't last long, everyone below Dou Sheng felt a sense of oppression and some discomfort in their hearts.

Above the sky, thick dark clouds had gathered at some point.

"Lin Xiu, take this move of mine, Great Nirvana Finger!"

Gu Tong shouted loudly, pointing a finger at the Void Realm ahead, and the aura of Nirvana, as if born from the Nine Nethers, completely unleashed and exploded.

Boom boom boom!

The thick clouds wriggled, as if something terrifying was about to emerge from within.

"How terrifying. A Heaven Rank Dou Technique unleashed by a Half-Saint, both in momentum and aura, is several times more terrifying than when unleashed by a Dou Zun."

Xiao Yan looked up, staring intently at the dark clouds. He had experienced the same scene on Gu Yao and Gu Tong successively.

But this time, after Gu Tong Breakthrough to Half-Saint and unleashed it again, it still felt different.

Senior, are you still not using the Fire Lotus?

His gaze shifted, and Xiao Yan didn't see flames surging from Lin Xiu's body, causing him to be momentarily stunned.

Under the convergence of many gazes, Lin Xiu's figure appeared very small compared to the black giant finger falling from the sky, like an ant that could be crushed at will.

At this moment, Lin Xiu made a move, slowly raising his left hand.

"Lin Xiu, although your Heaven Rank Dou Technique is good, the Realm gap between us is a chasm you cannot cross!"

Gu Tong frowned, kindly reminding him.

He was exerting his full strength, but he wasn't confident in controlling the Great Nirvana Finger. If Lin Xiu couldn't block it, the consequences of being grazed would be very serious.

Because under the Nirvana Finger, there is no life!

Lin Xiu's expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard.

A phantom figure rose from above his head, suddenly expanding dozens of times in size.

The illusory Lin Xiu made the same movements as his main body.

"Soul Xuan Imprint Palm!"

"Great Creation Palm!"

Two attacks flew out simultaneously.

The illusory palm moved at lightning speed, crossing the Void Realm and directly arriving in front of Gu Tong.

The Dou Qi on his body surged, yet it was rendered useless.

"Soul Power?"

A painful tremor came from deep within his mind. Gu Tong bent down, holding his forehead with both hands.

At the same time, the black light of the Great Creation Palm also collided with the falling black finger.

As the black light melted the Nirvana aura of the finger, it also rapidly diminished.

Lin Xiu calmly activated the Qi and Blood Condensation Art Cultivation Technique, maintaining full-speed operation.

A fierce wind swept across the sky, and the Dou Qi energy from thousands of miles around surged towards Lin Xiu with a roar.

Even some people with weaker strength showed signs of their Dou Qi leaving their bodies.

"What kind of Cultivation Technique is this? It feels somewhat similar to Lord Void."

Hun Ya suppressed the surging power within his body, a hint of astonishment flashing across his face.

Without subsequent power support, the Great Nirvana Finger appeared somewhat fatigued.

Just then, a surge of power suddenly arose, and the Great Nirvana Finger's previously dim luster brightened again.

"I will not lose!"

Gu Tong straightened his back again, gritting his teeth, and a light glowed from his brow.

It was the ignited Family crest!
