A chilling and sinister aura surged out from Xitianzun’s Blood River like a storm. Wherever the aura swept, whether they were from the Flame Alliance or the Lion Nether Sect, their blood within their bodies suddenly boiled up. Then, amidst a series of explosive sounds, countless people’s bodies exploded, splattering blood all over the ground, turning it into a crimson sea.
Xitianzun’s indiscriminate slaughter naturally caused shock and fear among both sides. Those who were close to the abyss hurriedly retreated, and in just moments, this area became strangely empty. “Damn you! What are you doing? Have you forgotten the agreement between us?” Not far away, Shitian, who had been severely injured by Xiao Yan earlier, finally managed to regain some breath. Seeing that Xitianzun was slaughtering the army of the Lion Nether Sect, he was furious and roared.
Xitianzun hovered above the sea of blood, casting a cold glance at the raging Shitian, then slowly raised his hand, aiming at him, and then squeezed fiercely.
“Boom!” As Xitianzun’s hand closed, Shitian’s roaring abruptly stopped, and his body instantly exploded, blood splattering everywhere.
Seeing that even the head of the Lion Nether Sect was killed so casually, the members of the sect were also extremely frightened. Though indignant, they dared not shout out anymore. If even Shitian couldn’t withstand a casual strike from Xitianzun, how could they?
Moreover, some other strong warriors from the Lion Nether Sect’s camp had come under duress and temptation, and therefore, they did not have any real loyalty to the Lion Nether Sect. It was impossible for them to stand up on their own initiative.
“Retreat the army of the Flame Alliance, this guy is unpredictable. Ordinary armies are just sent to die…” Cai Lin said with a frown, speaking gravely. “Mm.” Hearing this, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li beside her nodded, and quickly issued orders to have the outer army retreat to the fortress. “Now we can only hope that Xiao Yan can hold this guy off. Otherwise, Xuanhuang Fortress will still be drowned in blood,” Haipoldong said solemnly. “Mm.” Even Cai Lin could only nod at this. The so-called Xitianzun was clearly overwhelmingly powerful, and there was indeed no one here who could match him. Thus, they could only place all their hopes on Xiao Yan.
In the sky, Xiao Yan frowned as he watched Xitianzun, who had just caused a person to explode with a casual gesture. A thoughtful look passed through his eyes. “This person is called the Blood River Lord, and he seems to know the Blood Transformation Great Technique. He can probably control the blood within a person’s body.” Xiao Yan had encountered strong people who could control blood before, but none were as terrifying as Xitianzun, who could cause a six-star Dou Zun to explode with a mere movement of his fingers. Although Shitian was heavily injured, this guy’s methods were also very strange.
“Ripple!” While Xiao Yan was pondering, a wave of ripples suddenly stirred in the sea of blood. Xitianzun walked on the void with each step, ascending to the sky, and finally stopped a short distance in front of Xiao Yan. His long, blood-colored hair danced in the wind, and the stench of blood quietly permeated the sky… “Peak of an eight-star Dou Zun, truly an impressive strength…” Xitianzun looked at Xiao Yan with an extremely ugly smile. He then raised his palm and clenched it viciously. As he did so, the space in front of him violently twisted.
As Xiao Yan observed Xitianzun’s actions, he unleashed vast waves of Dou Qi, transforming into blazing flames, enveloping his entire body. “Dou Qi cannot defend against my Blood Transformation Great Technique,” Xitianzun rasped with a laugh. Just as Xitianzun’s words fell, Xiao Yan felt a sudden surge of uncontrollable agitation in his blood. There was a feeling that his blood vessels might burst.
Feeling the changes in his body, Xiao Yan’s expression changed. This guy’s Blood Transformation Technique was indeed quite formidable. As he was about to suppress the churning blood in his body, his heart suddenly beat violently. Then, he sensed a strange force emanating from his heart, entering his blood vessels. As this force merged with his blood, the boiling sensation instantly dissipated. “Is this… the bloodline fused in the Heavenly Tomb?” This change made Xiao Yan pause, surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn’t expected that the new bloodline was so powerful, rendering Xitianzun’s Blood Transformation Great Technique ineffective. “It seems your Blood Transformation Great Technique isn’t as amazing as you claim,” Xiao Yan raised his head and smiled at Xitianzun. “What’s going on?” Xitianzun, seeing Xiao Yan’s lack of reaction, was stunned. His Blood Transformation Great Technique was a Heavenly tier Dou Skill. Even some Dou Sheng-level strong individuals would be distracted and suppressed by it. Why was it having no effect on Xiao Yan? Xiao Yan smiled slightly, quickly forming a series of strange seals with his hands. As the seals formed, a unique clan mark appeared on his forehead. “The Xiao Clan mark? You actually activated the Xiao Clan’s bloodline?” Seeing the clan mark on Xiao Yan’s forehead, Xitianzun was shocked. The Xiao Clan’s bloodline had long been abandoned, so why could Xiao Yan still summon the clan mark? No one could answer Xitianzun’s question. At the moment the clan mark appeared, Xiao Yan’s aura suddenly surged, quickly matching Xitianzun’s. The boost from the clan mark was perfectly displayed.
Feeling the overwhelming power of Dou Qi within his body, Xiao Yan couldn’t help but take a deep, satisfying breath. He then smiled at Xitianzun, whose brows were tightly furrowed. Stepping forward, his figure vanished in that instant. “Even if your Blood Transformation Great Technique is useless, I can still sense the flow of blood in your body and determine your position. Therefore, your speed is meaningless to me.” Seeing Xiao Yan disappear, Xitianzun sneered. He rapidly took three steps back, and streams of blood-red Dou Qi flowed from his body, gathering into a thick, bloody shackle in his palm. He then slammed it into the empty space to his right: “Come out!”
The foul-smelling fist wind caused the space to twist, and a figure appeared—Xiao Yan. But although his position was discovered, Xiao Yan didn’t dodge. Instead, he stepped forward, allowing Xitianzun’s attack to land heavily on his chest. At the same time, his own scorching fist soared, striking Xitianzun’s chest with lightning speed. This form of combat was devoid of any techniques, purely a clash of force.
“Boom!” Both fists landed heavily on each other. However, after being hit by Xitianzun, Xiao Yan only shook his shoulder, his face unchanging. On the other hand, Xitianzun was pushed back several steps, a stifled groan escaping his throat. Clearly, Xiao Yan’s intensely hot fist wind was too much for him to handle. “If we continue this exchange, you won’t be able to keep up,” Xiao Yan smiled, dusting his clothes lightly. Xitianzun’s face was grim, his eyes fixed on the clothes Xiao Yan was wearing. After their exchange, he knew that most of his attacks had been absorbed by that strange garment. But what baffled him was that even though the clothes absorbed most of the impact, the rest should not have left Xiao Yan completely unharmed. This phenomenon was due to the hidden Dragon-Phoenix Ancient Armor on Xiao Yan’s skin, a secret that Xitianzun could not guess, even if he racked his brain. Not only was Xiao Yan’s garment strange, but even his skin was mysterious. Xitianzun glared at Xiao Yan, who could somehow counter his attacks while he could not ignore Xiao Yan’s. This kind of battle was incredibly frustrating. But Xitianzun was no ordinary person. He understood that the reason Xiao Yan wasn’t hurt was simply because his power was insufficient. If so, he would use even more, enough to utterly pulverize Xiao Yan into nothingness! “Blood Transformation Great Technique, Great Devouring Blood Art!” Xitianzun bellowed in a sinister voice that echoed through the sky. Within a thousand feet around him, all those below the Dou Zun level exploded, their blood surging into Xitianzun’s body. Meanwhile, the sea of blood in the deep ravine below surged, forming a torrent of bloody waves, rushing into Xitianzun’s body. As he devoured such a terrifying amount of blood, Xitianzun’s previously stagnant aura began to shift, gradually rising. “Xiao Yan, do not compare me to fools like Mouyu. Today, I shall collect the bloodline of your entire Xiao family, including the activated bloodline,” the dark, chilling voice resonated, carrying a terrifying pressure, spreading across the sky!
