622. Massacre 1
"As expected, what a pity," Xiao Yan murmured in a voice only he could hear.
Xiao Yan's pupils ignited with three-colored flames, and a powerful wind pressure instantly appeared in his palm. A hurricane carrying the Crimson Lotus Heart Flame erupted forth, engulfing the entire space in flames. A vast, enormous wave of fire surged towards the Spirit Clan's Dou Zun, seemingly Xiao Yan intending to kill the Spirit Clan Dou Zun on the spot before the spatial restriction took effect!
As the Crimson Lotus Heart Flame erupted, the Spirit Fusion Shield hastily condensed by the Spirit Clan Battle Venerable shattered, and his right shoulder blade made a crisp cracking sound in the aftershock of energy. His whole body crashed into the wall like a kite with a broken string.
After the initial burst of flames subsided, the Spirit Clan's Dou Zun, being a genuine six-star Dou Zun, forcefully used his spiritual fusion power to block the attack, emerging from the ruins in a very disheveled state.
The power that had been constantly threatening and devouring him had also completely ended. The power that had been pulling him away had completely disappeared. Looking around, he saw that Xiao Yan had indeed been suppressed by the air restriction released by his companions and had become a lamb to the slaughter.
This is the domineering nature of the Void Restriction—an almost unbreakable suppression at the same level. It can be said that once successfully used, it becomes the most feared nightmare for opponents. The Void Restriction is the Spirit Race's greatest achievement in recent years, but its full release has caused quite a stir among the Spirit Race. Everyone is eager to learn this domineering power.
However, the Void Forbidden Technique demands extremely high levels of spiritual fusion power, causing more than half of the Spirit Race members to fail initially. Fortunately, through continuous arduous training and communication, a considerable number of Spirit Race members eventually mastered it. This skill wasn't limited to Spirit Guards; some of the more outstanding Spirit Race members also possessed it, including the two Six-Star Dou Zun guarding the gate.
These two members of the Spirit Clan had a good relationship and were quite experienced in fighting together. Almost the moment Ling Guan was knocked away by Xiao Yan and did not immediately come out, the other one, Ling Han, understood Ling Guan's meaning: he would restrain him and release the Void Restriction, and then Xiao Yan would naturally be at their mercy.
"What a ruthless brat, you almost succeeded." Ling Han was indeed startled by Xiao Yan's unreasonable outburst just now.
Xiao Yan initially displayed too ferocity, his fearless fighting style overwhelming him in terms of sheer force. Subsequently, Xiao Yan's attacks became incredibly rapid, and anyone hit by one move would be continuously drawn into his rhythm. Moreover, Xiao Yan's moves were inherently unpredictable, and given another half an incense stick's time, even he himself dared not imagine what the outcome would be.
Seeing that Xiao Yan was now under control and unable to move, his previous frustration turned into a secret satisfaction of revenge, and he didn't even pay much attention to the situation of his companions.
He looked at Xiao Yan and chuckled softly, "The fighting techniques developed by the Supreme Elder are truly useful."
He then drew a sharp blade, strolled leisurely to Xiao Yan, and used the blade to lift Xiao Yan's chin.
"For a mere three-star Dou Zun to be able to push me to this tense point, kid, even if you die, you can still be proud."
"But you have no idea what a terrifying force you are facing."
At this moment, Ling Han had already raised the sharp blade high in his hand, coughing up blood and grinning maliciously: "Die, you arrogant brat!"
Just as his blade was about to pierce Xiao Yan's eye socket, he was unable to move any further, because Xiao Yan's five fingers were gripping his arm tightly like iron clamps.
The Spirit Clan Dou Zun's pupils suddenly contracted, because he actually saw that Xiao Yan could move.
The gray light spots around Xiao Yan suddenly froze, and the originally impenetrable air restriction spider web suddenly trembled violently. This was clearly a sign that the air restriction had failed!
"How could that be?"
A profound sense of panic filled Ling Han's heart. He immediately turned his attention to his companion, only to discover that his six-star Dou Zun companion had been controlled by a ball of dark flame. Ling Guan, who was supposed to be maintaining the air lock, was now having his neck wrapped around the neck by a distorted face conjured by the black flame. The black flame, with a face almost identical to the enemy before him, was draining all of his friend's power.
"Impossible!" Ling Han's neck veins throbbed. He knew Xiao Yan was extremely weak when he released the Void Restriction, but he had personally witnessed that Xiao Yan had not used any methods after the Void Restriction took effect.
He had no time to think about anything else, because under Xiao Yan's command, a ball of inner fire began to burn within his body. Then, several soul-piercing attacks struck, causing him to experience excruciating pain in both his mind and heart at the same time.
Xiao Yan looked at the frivolous Spirit Clan Dou Zun before him, and four light seals gradually condensed in his hands. As his power increased to a six-star Dou Zun, he could truly use the Emperor Seal Technique perfectly. The golden light wheel, wrapped with waves of red lotus fire, slammed heavily into the opponent's chest, and a crisp sound of bones cracking echoed throughout.
With the four seals stacked together, this advanced battle technique of the realm revealed its true power, nearly extinguishing the life force of the Spirit Clan Dou Zun. Then, Black Flame swiftly devoured the Spirit Clan Dou Zun who had been dealt with earlier, and flew over to take over Ling Han, who had been severely crippled by Xiao Yan.
Even though Ling Han thought of self-destruction, Xiao Yan was watching closely and there was no chance left. A surge of soul power burst forth, and the struggling movements of this six-star Dou Zun powerhouse of the Spirit Clan finally ceased, and he was swallowed up and disappeared by the black flames.
"How could he be so strong..." This was Ling Han's last thought before her consciousness completely disappeared.
Watching Hei Yan relentlessly extract the essence blood from Ling Han, Xiao Yan also took out a jade bottle. Each member of the Spirit Clan could yield approximately eight to twelve drops of essence blood, depending on their strength. After sharing the spoils with Hei Yan, Xiao Yan had already obtained over fifty drops. The essence blood of these descendants of Dou Di possessed a terrifying power that should not be underestimated.
If I can absorb this energy, advancing to a five-star Dou Zun will definitely not be a difficult task.
However, the more this was the case, the more wary Xiao Yan became of the Black Flame. The essence blood it had obtained was definitely no less than his own, and the Black Flame could devour anything; logically, its improvement should be far more than what it had shown so far. Xiao Yan even suspected that the Black Flame might not have absorbed all that essence blood in the end, and as for where it went, Xiao Yan had no answer.
His relationship with Black Flame cannot yet be considered a simple master-servant relationship. While Xiao Yan was pondering, Black Flame had already finished "eating" Ling Han.
