103. Working together to fight the enemy
Another Dou Zun?
Xiao Yan felt the wound on his neck and was shocked. If it weren't for Xun'er and Yao Lao's timely warning, he would probably have been beheaded during that premeditated sneak attack.
The deliberate assassination attempt by a Dou Zun powerhouse was truly terrifying, and Yao Lao's soul power began to attach itself to Xiao Yan's body.
However, Xiao Yan found that he was still in control of his body this time. Yao Lao's power only made his aura surge a lot, reaching the level of a seven or eight-star Dou Zong.
"This is also a benefit I've gained from absorbing the Star Spirit Nurturing Orchid; I can focus entirely on fighting the enemy!"
After Xiao Yan completely absorbed the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, Yao Lao was no longer as proficient in using it as Xiao Yan. Therefore, it would be better to let Xiao Yan control the body, as the resulting combat power would be stronger and more effective than if Yao Lao controlled it.
Xiao Yan nodded, but he was surprised to see the assassin.
"Xiao Yan, I didn't expect you to be so lucky, actually dodging my attack." The assassin's entire arm was covered in silver-white patterns, and he looked at Xiao Yan with the eyes of a cat playing with a mouse.
It turned out to be Lu Chen, who had clashed with Xiao Yan before. Lu Chen, who was not even a match for Zi Yan before and could not even withstand a single move from Xiao Yan, had actually become a Dou Zun!
Lu Chen's appearance drew everyone's attention. Another Dou Zun! And another member of the Xuanwen Sect!
If it weren't for the complete defeat of the Xuanwen Sect at the Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering, who would have thought that the Xuanwen Sect, which was also the leading force in the Northwest Region, was so terrifying?
With three Dou Zun and thousands of Dou Wang and above puppets, no single force could even catch a glimpse of the Xuanwen Sect.
Moreover, Lu Chen is young, not even over thirty years old. Now it seems that Lu Zhi and Zi Yan's Dou Zong cultivation are not worth mentioning in front of Lu Chen.
"Your Dou Qi is weak. Although you are indeed a Dou Zun, it is definitely not the result of your own cultivation. You must have taken that Emperor's Essence Fruit, right?" Xiao Yan guessed as he looked at Lu Chen in front of him.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's analysis, Lu Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "You have good judgment. No wonder Lu Zhi keeps losing to you."
Xiao Yan was also somewhat surprised to see Lu Chen. He hadn't expected that the Xuanwen Sect wouldn't give the Emperor's Essence Fruit to Lu Zhi, but instead gave it to Lu Chen. Lu Chen's current advancement to Dou Zun was probably due to the Xuanwen Sect sparing no expense in using rare and precious treasures to help him reach that level, since the Emperor's Essence Fruit was said to be able to remove all the level barriers before reaching Dou Sheng.
Lu Chen rushed into the defensive formation of the four sects alone, but no one took the initiative to attack him, after all, he was a genuine Dou Zun!
Sensing the fear in the eyes of those around him, Lu Chen's face showed satisfaction. He then said, "Lu Zhi is already dead at my hands. That guy was really annoying. But there's one thing we have in common—we both want to kill you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen appeared in front of Xiao Yan instantly, his arm covered with silver-white patterns resembling a divine weapon.
Among the Xuanwen Sect's patterns, the most powerful for attacking is the Sharp Gold Pattern!
Xiao Yan had made preparations beforehand, so he also had a small blood-red palm print on his right hand, which he used to meet the attack head-on.
However, Xiao Yan did not expect that a beautiful figure would suddenly appear beside him. With golden fighting spirit spreading, she also struck out with a palm, and the combined power of the two palms was even more terrifying.
The next moment, a roar resounded, and Xiao Yan was directly blasted away by the aftershock. He also saw clearly who it was: Xiao Xun'er.
At this critical moment, Xiao Xun'er finally unleashed her full power, her body surrounded by golden flames, and her eyes shone brightly.
Xiao Yan knew that Xun'er had started using that mysterious secret technique again. Relying on the explosive power of the technique, Xun'er's strength at this moment was no less than his own.
Moreover, the golden flames were quite magical; they actually wrapped around Lu Chen's body and began to burn his battle aura.
With the added effect of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire burning away evil thoughts, Lu Chen felt his body and mind burning continuously.
What Xiao Yan found most unbelievable was that his Red Lotus Karmic Flame was somewhat afraid of Xun'er's golden flames.
The Crimson Lotus Karmic Flame is already ranked eighth on the list of strange flames, but the flames on Xun'er's body are even more powerful than the Crimson Lotus Karmic Flame.
"Teacher, is it on Xun'er's body?"
"Anything capable of suppressing the Crimson Lotus Karmic Flame must be a different kind of flame, and a golden one at that! This girl's background is truly terrifying!"
However, without giving Xiao Yan a chance to catch his breath, the next moment, an attack at the Dou Zun level descended once again.
The ice dragon, formed entirely from battle qi, roared forth, and even a Dou Zong expert would perish upon encountering this attack.
A chilling frost emanated from the ice dragon, freezing the powerful beings around it upon contact.
Xiao Yan showed no fear in the face of the ice dragon. His blood-red flames burned fiercely, and Yao Lao's strength, which had reached the seventh level of Dou Zong, made him unafraid of Lu Chen.
With a punch imbued with the power of the Eight Extremes Collapse Technique, Xiao Yan slammed the ice dragon directly in front of its head, bringing the roaring ice dragon to a sudden halt.
Crimson flames and the frost on the ice dragon continued to assault, and mist spread out from where they met.
Seeing Xiao Yan's strength increase dramatically, Lu Chen was about to make a move when a domineering palm strike came towards his face.
Blue and white patterns appeared on half of Lu Chen's body. These were the ice-type patterns of the Xuanwen Sect, the Frosty Ice Pattern.
Another ice dragon charged out, but Xiao Xun'er, the one who struck, did not retreat. Instead, she unleashed a torrent of golden flames, and the entire ice dragon began to burn.
To Lu Chen's surprise, the ice dragon he had summoned with his Dou Zun-level strength was being burned by the golden flames.
"A strange fire?"
Xiao Xun'er did not answer Lu Chen's question. Instead, she launched a punch and a palm strike. Xiao Xun'er's attack was extremely domineering.
Between the simple and unadorned fists and palms, it seemed as if they contained the ultimate truth of the universe. Lu Chen felt that these attacks did not exceed the upper limit of the Dou Zong's strength.
But as the blows came, it felt as if I were facing the very laws of nature, which are irresistible!
Everyone watching was astonished to discover that the incredibly beautiful girl who was obediently staying by Xiao Yan's side actually possessed such terrifying strength.
She was able to suppress a Dou Zun powerhouse, so her strength was definitely no less than her beauty.
Everyone discovered that since the start of the Beast Gathering, the biggest problem has become: who can be considered the true number one among the younger generation in the Northwest Region?
Lu Zhi was the clear winner before, but even after advancing to the Dou Zong realm within the Myriad Beasts Space, he still lost.
Xiao Yan, Zi Yan, and Qing Lin made a powerful entrance, but Lu Chen appeared domineeringly as a Dou Zun. Now, another newcomer has emerged, whose apparent strength is only Dou Huang, yet she is forcefully suppressing the Dou Zun powerhouse, Xiao Xun'er. These young generation members are truly amazing!
Seeing Xiao Xun'er's domineering and unreasonable behavior at this moment, Xiao Yan seized the opportunity to create a fire lotus that blended white and blood.
