70: Fall, Four-Star Dou Zong

"Go!"

At this moment, Old Man Ying Shan only had one thought: seizing the Medicinal Pill had clearly failed, and forcibly killing Xiao Lei was unrealistic.

Thus, escaping was the best option... Without another word, Old Man Ying Shan's body split into several Clones, each fleeing in a different direction.

The several figures looked identical, but they couldn't deceive Xiao Lei.

Aside from the peerless Divine Ability in the Major Thousand Worlds—the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones—there had never been a Clone that perfectly matched the main body.

Xiao Lei simply activated the System, instantly locking onto the true body, then stepped into the Void Realm, and his figure leaped out of thin air.

Boom boom boom!

Xiao Lei's seemingly light footsteps in the Void Realm caused a series of dull rumbling sounds, as if the Void Realm couldn't bear his weight.

Old Man Ying Shan sensed Xiao Lei rapidly approaching his true body, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he thought, "Impossible!"

"Is it luck?"

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Old Man Ying Shan once again activated a secret technique to create a group of Clones, intending to confuse Xiao Lei.

"Stubborn!"

Seeing this, Xiao Lei smiled, drew Xuan Yi from his waist, raised it above his head, and shouted, "Sword Wave!"

Blue abnormal fire surged from the blade, transforming into rolling waves of fire that crashed towards the group of Clones that had not yet separated.

Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions erupted as several Clones burst like rubber balls in Xiao Lei's hand, and Old Man Ying Shan's true body was immediately affected, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"His movement Dou Technique is no weaker than mine; I can't escape, only kill!"

Thinking this, Old Man Ying Shan's Aura immediately became gloomy, like a hidden venomous snake, patiently waiting for its prey to show a flaw before delivering a fatal strike!

Xiao Lei pursued, blasting continuously, constantly activating various Dou Techniques, using Old Man Ying Shan as a guinea pig.

Xiao Lei possessed many people's Dou Techniques, and now he was getting familiar with his own methods.

"Now's the time!"

Old Man Ying Shan, who had been beaten to a pulp, had been calculating their distance. When Xiao Lei finally got close, Old Man Ying Shan moved!

As swift as lightning, a pair of sharp eagle claws extended, striking directly at Xiao Lei's chest... However, Xiao Lei seemed to have been prepared, immediately placing Xuan Yi in front of his chest.

Bang!

The sharp claws tore at the dark long saber, but couldn't leave a single mark, only creating a sharp, teeth-grinding sound in the air.

"Is this the Eagle Claw Strike? Interesting!"

A mocking expression appeared on Xiao Lei's face, while Old Man Ying Shan was startled again, his eyes filled with disbelief.

It was one thing for Xiao Lei to block his attack, but why did he know the name of this move? Old Man Ying Shan had only recently acquired this Dou Technique, and everyone who had seen him use it was dead!

Nothing else, it was naturally the System's Divine Power that allowed Xiao Lei to discern Old Man Ying Shan's Dou Technique.

Despite his internal surprise, Old Man Ying Shan's attacks didn't stop. Several Dou Techniques erupted consecutively, igniting a series of clashes.

"Xuan Yi Mirror!"

Xiao Lei held the saber in his right hand, and pressed his left hand in front of him, condensing a deep blue profound mirror.

Old Man Ying Shan's attacks landed on it, only causing slight ripples, but unable to break through.

Old Man Ying Shan fought with all his might, yet couldn't even touch Xiao Lei's clothes.

As the saying goes, "the first drum inspires, the second saps, and the third exhausts."

After continuous bursts, Old Man Ying Shan's offensive immediately weakened.

Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Lei's footsteps emitted explosive sounds, and his figure charged and lunged for a moment.

"Stepping on the Dipper!"

Under the enhancement of this peculiar movement Dou Technique, Xiao Lei's Aura not only didn't diminish but increased, becoming like a towering mountain pressing down directly on Old Man Ying Shan.

"Sunset Radiance!"

Three abnormal fires rushed into Xuan Yi simultaneously, and three dazzling colors trailed long tail flames in the air, striking Old Man Ying Shan.

The sharp sound of the saber Qi cutting through the air spread high above. The next moment, Old Man Ying Shan's withered figure was struck by dozens of saber blows... His figure plunged straight down towards the ground, directly embedding itself in the vast yellow sand, his Aura extremely weak.

Xiao Lei instantly flashed forward, placing his long saber against Old Man Ying Shan's face.

【Target: The famous Old Man Ying Shan of the Black-Corner Region.】

【Cultivation: Four-star Dou Zong.】

...【Physique: None.】

【Copy time: One minute.】

【Do you want to copy?】

"An extra star of Cultivation, better than nothing! Copy."

Possessing three great abnormal fires, two great Physiques, and a seventh-grade Alchemy, Old Man Ying Shan's meager foundation was completely insufficient in front of Xiao Lei.

Old Man Ying Shan had already fallen unconscious, so there was naturally no talk of resistance.

One minute later, Old Man Ying Shan's body was dismembered, and a generation's overlord of the Black-Corner Region met his end at Xiao Lei's hands.

And Xiao Lei successfully advanced to a four-star Dou Zong.

"This old man, despite being injured, dared to try and rob me!"

As the saying goes, "fortune is sought in danger, and lost in danger!"

Xiao Lei picked up the opponent's storage ring, played with it a few times, and wiped away the remaining Soul imprint, immediately inspecting its contents.

Putting aside some miscellaneous items for now, Three Thousand Lightning Movement immediately caught Xiao Lei's attention.

"This thing actually came from this old guy!"

In the original work, it only mentioned that Three Thousand Lightning Movement was auctioned in Black Seal City, and no specific information was revealed. Xiao Lei had even considered finding a Wind and Thunder Pavilion Elder in Zhongzhou to copy it later.

This item was an excellent movement Dou Technique, and there was also an advanced version of Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body.

Xiao Lei could let Xiao Yi Xian Cultivate it first, then copy it, and utilize it to its fullest.

In short: Thanks to Old Man Ying Shan, the money-scattering boy.

However, after this battle, Xiao Lei also discovered his own problem—a lack of powerful means.

Although Xiao Lei had abundant Dou Qi and diverse methods, he lacked a decisive Dou Technique.

Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus, after all, took too much time to prepare.

"Perhaps I should put some thought into the abnormal fires!"

...Just as Xiao Lei was performing Alchemy and researching Dou Techniques, Ye Cheng also quickly made his move. With the Medicinal Pills provided by Xiao Lei and various resources from the Izumo Empire that Xiao Lei didn't need, Purple Thunder Pavilion's first auction alone made it famous in the Black-Corner Region.

If nothing else, a single Break-Sect Pill was enough to drive all the Peak Dou Huang Elders in the entire Black-Corner Region mad.

In the following months, Purple Thunder Pavilion held an auction once a month.

Black Emperor Sect was fine, but forces like Eight-Door Sect and other Dou Huang powers felt the pressure.

The profits from auctions in the Black-Corner Region were only so large; the more people who participated, the less profit everyone would get.

Originally, Yuan Yi, City Lord and others wanted to play some small tricks, but after hearing that Purple Thunder Pavilion's Sect Master was a Peak Dou Huang, they immediately backed down!

So, the few of them could only go to Black Emperor City together.

Inside the main hall, Mo Ya sat confidently in the main seat, chatting and laughing with the leaders of the various Dou Huang forces.

"I generally understand everyone's intentions, but Purple Thunder Pavilion has never had any enmity with us. How can we attack them? It's really improper!"

Speaking of which, for Mo Ya to reach the Peak Dou Huang at his age was considered quite talented.

"Young Sect Master! This matter is no small feat! This Purple Thunder Pavilion has a significant background. There are only a few people in the Black-Corner Region who can produce Break-Sect Pills!"

Yuan Yi, City Lord was the first to speak. He had already seen many things from this auction. Ye Cheng, a Peak Dou Huang, didn't use the Break-Sect Pill himself but chose to auction it!

What did this indicate?

There was someone else behind him making decisions!

To be able to command a Peak Dou Huang expert, the other party must at least be a Dou Zong!

That's why Yuan Yi, City Lord and the others didn't dare to act rashly and immediately came to Black Emperor City, as Black Emperor Sect had a Dou Zong... What Yuan Yi, City Lord could figure out, Mo Ya naturally could too, which is why he deliberately made excuses.

Are you kidding? Just because his Sect has a Dou Zong means his Sect should go? What kind of logic is that!

Mo Ya was about to continue trying to push it off when suddenly, a surge of Aura emanated from deep within Black Emperor Sect, revealing a powerful presence.

Feeling this Dou Qi, Mo Ya was surprised, "Father? He's out of seclusion!"

Mo Tianxing had been in seclusion for years, studying the bodhi transformation saliva he had obtained. Mo Ya truly hadn't expected him to come out of seclusion.

The next moment, a burly figure appeared in front of Mo Ya. Everyone was about to stand up and salute, but Mo Tianxing waved his sleeve, signaling everyone to sit down.

Mo Tianxing patted Mo Ya's shoulder, acknowledging his previous actions.

Then Mo Tianxing secretly transmitted a message to Mo Ya, "I already know about this matter. It's a big deal, and the other party's strength is extremely formidable. We must handle it carefully!"

Mo Ya knew that Mo Tianxing's words meant for him to leave everything to him. He simply gave up the main seat, stood behind him, and quietly waited for Mo Tianxing to make a decision.

"Everyone! This Purple Thunder Pavilion is coming on strong, and there must be someone supporting them from behind. Thank you for your trust in coming together to discuss this. If everyone agrees, I, Mo, have a suggestion."

Everyone remained silent, clearly deferring to Mo Tianxing's authority.

"We need to first probe this Purple Thunder Pavilion and see just how strong they are!"

"The best way, of course, is to hold a large-scale auction..."
