197: Fight! There's a chance, but be quick!

Chapter 197: Battle! There's a chance, but it needs to be quick!

Being targeted by Soul Origin Life, Xiao Yan felt a chill run down his spine.

His strength was even greater than Soul Demon Old Man's!

In an instant, a thought flashed through Xiao Yan's mind, and the next second, he rapidly formed hand seals!

Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Flame!

First transformation… Second transformation… Third transformation!

On Xiao Yan's forehead, a clan tattoo appeared, gradually becoming clear.

Accompanying this was his own strength, which began to rise from Five-Star Dou Sheng, quickly breaking through the six-star threshold.

“This secret method…” Soul Origin Life had witnessed something similar on Soul Cang, with a similar effect, but Xiao Yan’s effect was far less potent than Soul Cang’s.

At this moment, Xiao Yan began his attack.

Swish!

His figure flashed, like a bolt of lightning, instantly appearing before Soul Origin Life, his flame-enveloped fist striking towards him.

Soul Origin Life looked at the fist, and a black Dou Qi surged from his body, quickly condensing into a shield wall, blocking the attack.

Boom!

The fist landed, and terrifying energy created tangible ripples that spread outwards.

The shield wall retreated a bit, covered in cracks, but still unbroken.

Soul Origin Life laughed, “Kid, is this the extent of your strength?”

Xiao Yan snorted, “Don’t rush, the real big move is yet to come!”

He retreated.

The next second, a figure in front of him rapidly grew larger; Soul Origin Life’s expression was cold, and his five fingers clawed towards him.

Xiao Yan raised his right hand, forming a palm into a blade, and slashed forward.

Flame Partition Wave Ruler!

A flash of fire erupted from his hand, growing against the wind, rapidly transforming into a massive Dou Qi ribbon over a hundred zhang long, colliding with the fingers condensed by Soul Origin Life.

Flames surged on this blade light, and the contained temperature distorted space itself.

Soul Origin Life’s expression changed slightly, feeling a bit tricky; when his attack collided with Xiao Yan’s, he actually had the illusion that his Dou Qi was being burned.

In fact, this was not entirely an illusion, but a characteristic of the Nether Lotus Demon Flame.

Before Soul Origin Life could ponder, Xiao Yan attacked again.

The two became entangled, inseparable.

On the other side.

Soul Demon Old Man and Xiao Chen had already battled into space.

From the outside, one could not see their figures, only guess how fierce the battle was by the occasional traces of combat seeping out from space.

Below.

Yao Chen, Yao Tianhuo, Medusa, and others gathered together.

As early as the start of the great battle, the pre-arranged grand formation had already been activated.

Now, above the city, a semi-transparent, dome-like barrier descended from above.

The occasional surging battle aftermath caused ripple-like patterns on the barrier, and everyone maintaining the grand formation could feel their Dou Qi rapidly depleting.

Everyone’s face was filled with solemnity; this should be the most dangerous time since the Cang Alliance was established.

Medusa was somewhat worried: “Can Xiao Yan and the others win?”

Yao Tianhuo turned to look at Yao Chen.

He was not confident in answering this question; compared to Xiao Yan and the others, his current strength was still somewhat distant.

Yao Chen pondered for a moment: “The key to victory lies mainly with Xiao Yan. His own strength is inferior to the opponent, but with the secret method’s boost, plus the advantage of the Heavenly Flame, he has a chance!”

Previously in the Demon Flame Space, Soul Demon Old Man had made a move, and Xiao Chen did the same.

Their strengths should be on par.

Precisely because of this, Xiao Yan’s performance would largely determine the final outcome of this battle.

Actually, Yao Chen had something he didn’t say.

That was, while Xiao Yan had a chance, the premise was that he had to be quick!

Currently, Xiao Yan was fighting Soul Origin Life, and he understood this point; his attacks were very urgent, and he even tried to exchange injuries several times.

However, Soul Origin Life had lived for so many years, not in vain, and saw through Xiao Yan’s intentions at a glance.

“Kid, give up. As long as the secret method doesn’t end, I won’t give you a chance to clash head-on,” Soul Origin Life said.

“You won’t give it? Did I ask you to give it?” Xiao Yan snorted coldly.

If there’s no opportunity, create one himself!

Xiao Yan paused, formed hand seals, and countless flames surged from his body, spreading outwards.

In a blink of an eye, a thick mist covered a hundred miles around.

Nightmare Heavenly Mist!

Seeing this, Yao Chen’s heart rejoiced; this was a technique of Purifying Lotus Saint, which, when unleashed, could naturally induce a hallucinatory effect.

Once, when Purifying Lotus Saint cultivated it to mastery, he even made an entire city live in a dream for a period, with no one noticing.

Of course, Xiao Yan's current conditions naturally made it impossible to reach such a level.

However, he didn’t need much; just a momentary lapse of concentration from Soul Origin Life would be enough.

Soul Origin Life, enveloped in the mist, immediately maintained maximum vigilance.

Suddenly, a very familiar voice came from the side.

“Soul Fury!” Turning around, Soul Origin Life saw an incredibly familiar figure, his voice trembling.

Soul Fury was covered in blood, looking extremely miserable, crying incessantly.

In an instant, Soul Origin Life was completely drawn in.

At this moment, an urgent shout rang in his ear: “Elder! Be careful!”

This work is organized and uploaded by ~ ~

It was Soul Wind’s voice!

Soul Origin Life was startled, his aura shook, and his eyes regained clarity.

The figure of Soul Fury disappeared, replaced by Xiao Yan’s rapidly approaching figure, and in his palm, he held a lotus made of flames.

Danger!

Soul Origin Life’s gaze fell upon the flame lotus, his pupils suddenly contracting into tiny dots.

Sky-Swallowing Mirror!

Countless black mist-like Dou Qi rushed out from his body, quickly condensing into a giant mirror, its surface smooth, seemingly possessing magic that could devour everything, even light.

The fire lotus flew up, directly falling into the mirror surface, and was immediately swallowed.

Boom!

The next second, the fire lotus exploded inside the mirror, fire waves surged, and the contained power erupted, causing the Sky-Swallowing Mirror to tremble violently.

“Hold it for me!” Soul Origin Life’s face showed a hint of panic, and he pushed with both hands, injecting more Dou Qi into the Sky-Swallowing Mirror.

Crack, crack, crack!

However, the alarming crisp sounds still rang out.

Firelight overflowed from the cracks, and Soul Origin Life was sent flying.

After his figure emerged from the mist, Soul Origin Life looked up, astonished to find that a five-pointed star grand formation had appeared in the sky at some point.

The grand formation was composed of five Fire Spirits, namely a wolf, a leopard, a lion, a tiger, and a flood dragon.

Swish!

Xiao Yan appeared in Soul Origin Life’s line of sight, raising his right hand high, and shouted: “Five Round Li Fire Plate!”

The grand formation above lit up with a dazzling beam of light, followed by a disc made of flames, which rapidly spun and shot towards Soul Origin Life.

The fire disc was extremely fast, the whistling sound of its rotation was incessant, and all the space along its path shattered, leaving a dark crack.

Everyone only felt a black shadow flash by, and the fire disc appeared before Soul Origin Life.

Buzz!

At the crucial moment, the space in front of Soul Origin Life slightly distorted.

The fire disc’s position was slightly off, and it brushed past him.

This was a Six-Star Dou Sheng’s control over space!

Soul Origin Life was forced by Xiao Yan to use his full strength, and his face was extremely grim.

The fire disc, controlled by Xiao Yan, spun and attacked Soul Origin Life again.

“Today, I’ll let you witness the true strength of a Six-Star Dou Sheng!” Soul Origin Life’s hair flew wildly, his hands covered in dense Dou Qi, glowing with extraordinary brilliance.

Facing the whistling fire disc, Soul Origin Life did not dodge, extending his hands.

Crack!

The next second, the fire disc was actually caught by him!

“How is that possible?!” Seeing this, Yao Tianhuo’s eyes almost popped out.

The Five Round Li Fire Method was his proudest invention; if it could be boosted by three types of Heavenly Flames, its power would be comparable to a Heaven-tier Dou Skill.

Currently, Xiao Yan was activating five types of Heavenly Flames, representing the peak of the Five Round Li Fire Method.

The power of this eruption was not weaker than a mid- or even high-grade Heaven-tier Dou Skill, so how could it be caught?

Xiao Yan was equally surprised; he waved his hands, attempting to pull the fire disc out, but no matter how hard he tried, it remained motionless.

“Break for me!” Soul Origin Life grinned menacingly at Xiao Yan, clenching his fingers.
