Chapter 153 The Battle Continues
Something unexpected happened in the Yunlan Sect Square.
It was unknown when a black mist appeared silently in the square under the gaze of almost all the powerful people in the Jiama Empire. The way it appeared was extremely strange, as if it had split from the shadow of the stone tablet in the square.
At the moment the black fog took shape, two pitch-black chains with a deep luster suddenly shot out from the black fog, accompanied by a strange laugh, and attacked Xiao Yan directly.
The speed of the chain was extremely terrifying, and it was almost instantly not far away from Xiao Yan.
The tip of the chain emitted a strange and cold light.
As soon as Xiao Yan heard the voice and turned around, what caught his eyes was the strangely black chain.
"what is this?"
Without even having time to think, Xiao Yan, who had just won the three-year agreement, was suddenly faced with a life-and-death crisis in the blink of an eye.
The dark chain did not stop at all because of Xiao Yan's surprise. The black mist was extremely ruthless, so it was a real killer! If the chain hit Xiao Yan's body, it would probably take his life immediately.
At this moment, Yao Lao's enormous power, accompanied by a white flame, was released from the Bone Inflammation Ring.
The huge soul instantly gathered into an illusory human form, and at the moment of formation, two pale fire cones instantly formed and hit the two chains directly.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two earth-shattering noises, surpassing the previous collision between the Flame Devouring Wave Ruler and the Wind Extreme·Meteorite Killer, resounded throughout the Yunlan Mountain.
When Yao Lao and the Soul Palace guardian, two Dou Zong-level people, were fighting, the noise caused by a casual attack was far greater than that of Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran's full-scale confrontation.
"Hehehe~, this kind of soul power and bone spirit cold fire, it's indeed Yao Chen."
"What the guardian Wu said is indeed true. Yao Chen's soul body is really in this kid! This time, I am really lucky. Hehehe~"
A spooky and strange laugh suddenly sounded in the sky above the square, and then a cloud of black fog appeared strangely over the square.
"Wow!"
The moment the black fog emerged, a pitch-black chain of the same type that attacked Xiao Yan suddenly shot out from the black fog and continued to shoot towards Xiao Yan.
However, this attack seemed to be aimed at Xiao Yan, but in fact it was trying to force Yao Lao, who was protecting Xiao Yan, to reveal his flaws.
At this moment, a silver light flashed, and Lin Yuan's tall figure appeared in front of the chain track.
Facing the chains that were coming at him, Lin Yuan gathered his strength in his feet, spun around, and kicked the black chains from the side. A mysterious spiral energy was transmitted to the chains.
"Tian Yuan Eight Characters Jue: Xuan."
The mysterious swirling energy and the chain's own energy mixed cleverly, confusing and shaking the chain's trajectory, causing its direction to shift slightly, and it shot toward the ground and embedded deeply into the ground.
Immediately, a silver light flashed, and Lin Yuan's figure appeared beside Yao Lao and Xiao Yan as if teleporting, and he looked indifferently at the black mist above - Protector Sun.
After the first round of fighting, Xiao Yan finally came back to his senses, but he was full of doubts, "Teacher, Brother Tianshu?"
However, before Xiao Yan could express more questions, Yao Lao, who was looking at the guardian Wu at the stone tablet, stopped his doubts and said, "Xiao Yan, the situation is urgent now, don't ask too much for now. Someone will tell you these things soon."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Yuan beside him, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
From the way Lin Yuan dealt with the attack just now with ease, Yao Lao knew that he was an expert in combat, so he should be more confident in the next battle.
The attack was blocked. While Guardian Sun was retrieving the chains that were directed underground, he looked grimly at Lin Yuan, whose depth was unclear.
"Boy, who are you? How dare you hinder this guardian? Are you looking for death?"
Hearing this, Lin Yuan smiled indifferently and said coldly: "If I don't seek death, I won't die? Not necessarily. Sir, you should explain this barrier first."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan waved his hand, and the green fighting spirit quickly condensed and transformed into four fire bombs with huge energy, shooting towards the distant sky in all directions.
At the same time, he shouted, "Everyone in the Jiama Empire, please pay attention. This place has been blocked by a barrier. If things go wrong, you may all be buried together today."
The united front work should not be stopped as long as there is an opportunity.
When the Soul Palace guardian quietly set up the barrier, Lin Yuan had sensed it, but he did not do anything at that time, because of this moment.
The guardian Wu wanted to capture a large number of souls by taking advantage of the situation, and Lin Yuan also wanted to increase the available combat power on his side.
Not long after Lin Yuan finished speaking, when the green flame bomb he released was flying to a certain limit, a space barrier with a faint black gas suddenly appeared.
Four blue flame bombs hit the barrier and exploded violently, but they failed to break through the barrier and only caused faint ripples in space.
Fa Ma, Jia Xingtian and other powerful men of the Jia Ma Empire were in chaos because of the continuous changes.
When they heard Lin Yuan's words, especially when they saw the space barrier that easily blocked Lin Yuan's attack and blocked the place, their eyes suddenly showed fierceness.
Feeling that many powerful people's eyes were focused on him in an instant, Protector Sun looked at Lin Yuan with a few flashes of red murderous light in his eyes.
However, Lin Yuan did not give anyone a chance to refute, and said calmly: "If you don't want everyone to misunderstand, then remove the barrier first. If it is not the barrier set by the two of you, then why don't you remove the barrier together first, and then each of you can continue with what you want to do."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan glanced at Fa Ma, Jia Xingtian and others, and said calmly: "After all, no one feels at ease when this kind of barrier exists. Isn't it? Friends of the Jia Ma Empire."
As soon as the words fell, they were quickly echoed by the powerful men of the Gama Empire.
Fa Ma narrowed his eyes, stared at Yao Lao's illusory figure, and said lightly: "My two black friends, I think what this little brother said is right."
"Indeed, this kind of barrier makes me feel uneasy." Jia Xingtian glanced at the place where Lin Yuang had just attacked, and said in a deep voice: "Please remove the barrier first and eliminate unnecessary misunderstandings!"
Hai Bodong looked at Guardian Sun coldly and said, "Or is it that your target is us, and you want to catch all the high-ranking officials of the Jia Ma Empire in one fell swoop?"
Dharma Protector Sun looked at the people who were pointing fingers and the ferocity in his eyes grew even stronger. How dare such ants talk to him like this?
“Hehehe, Wu Protector, there are always people in this world who don’t know their place. These country bumpkins who claim to be the kings and tyrants in remote places really seem to take themselves seriously.”
"Hehehe, it seems like that. Guardian Sun, there is no point in wasting time talking to these country bumpkins and ants."
While speaking, the guardian Wu looked at Yao Lao and the powerful men of the Jia Ma Empire, his eyes flashing with greed, "So many souls are enough to make up for the losses in the previous mission of the Xiao family, and complete this year's mission target."
When Guardian Wu killed the ancient Dou Zong who was guarding the Xiao family, he suffered a lot of losses. The self-explosion also caused him to lose a large number of souls that he had collected before.
Moreover, he was unable to obtain the opponent's soul to make up for the loss.
If the loss that day had not been so great that there were not enough souls to use as consumables, Protector Wu would not have invited Protector Sun to share the profits with Yao Lao.
Then, he glanced at the thousands of Yunlan Sect disciples around him, his eyes becoming extremely ferocious: "Yunshan, even though you are dead, the debt between us has not been settled yet. Today, this Dharma Protector will use the souls of your Yunlan Sect disciples to pay off the debt."
Thinking of Yunshan at this moment, Protector Wu still couldn't calm down his anger.
Yunshan ate a lot of his resources, and then he just exploded. This not only made it impossible for him to recover his soul, but also ruined his plan. He had to invite this greedy guardian Sun to share Yaochen's great achievement.
This time, even if Yao Chen can be captured successfully, Protector Wu will have to give 45% of the reward to Protector Sun according to the agreement.
On the other side, after hearing the conversation between Protector Wu and Protector Sun, everyone in the Jia Ma Empire looked gloomy.
The contemptuous attitude and cold murderous intent in the other party's words were not even bothered to be hidden.
However, the opponent's strength is indeed extremely strong. Hai Bodong, Fa Ma and Jia Xingtian, the strongest people in the Gama Empire, can feel that the opponent's strength completely exceeds theirs and must be a Dou Zong level master.
Several people looked at each other and realized that they were indeed in a serious crisis this time, and understood their correct positions and strategies.
The only solution now is to cooperate with Lin Yuan and that powerful soul to fight against the enemy together.
Thinking of this, several people flashed and instantly came to Lin Yuan and Yao Lao, put on a protective posture, and silently expressed their intention to cooperate.
In mid-air, the guardians Wu and Sun also gathered together. Looking at the group of Douhuang-level "rabble" gathered below, both of them showed a cold and confident smile on their faces covered by black mist.
In their eyes, only Yao Chen could be considered a threat to their hearts.
However, after the brief fight just now, the protectors Wu and Sun have already found out Yao Lao's current level of strength - a two-star Dou Zong.
The two-star Dou Zong plus this group of Dou Huangs, facing the two of them, the result is, hehehe...
Staring at Yao Lao, Guardian Wu said sinisterly, "Guardian Sun, I will hold Yao Chen for a while, and you go and get rid of these ants below. Then, we will work together to capture Yao Chen and prevent him from taking desperate actions."
Protector Sun nodded and looked down, his eyes falling on Lin Yuan who had just taken advantage of his attack.
"Okay, I'll leave Yao Chen to you. Just hold him back, I'll quickly take care of the group of ants below."
At this time, Protector Sun saw Lin Yuan showing him a provocative smile, and suddenly his cold voice became more angry: "Damn it, provoking me? Then start with this sharp-tongued kid." On the other side, Lin Yuan also completed the work of surveying and exploring the surrounding space barrier with soul power.
He had studied the experience of measuring space barriers for a period of time, and today it finally came in handy.
The rich Taixu Dragon Qi in his body gave Lin Yuan a special sense of space that far exceeded that of ordinary people. Combined with his powerful soul perception and surveying experience, Lin Yuan keenly found the weak points in the barrier set up by the two protectors Wu.
At the same time, Yao Lao also accurately detected the strength of the two guardians.
He looked at the two clouds of black mist solemnly and said in a deep voice: "Tianshu boy, it seems that the other party is a 4-4 configuration. It has not exceeded the plan we agreed on before, and it is still within the scope of coping."
Lin Yuan felt the gaze of Sun the Protector, gave him a provocative smile, and said calmly: "Then it's like what I said before, one for you and one for me. As for the barrier..."
He glanced at the people from the Gama Empire around him and pointed his finger to a location in the southwest.
"Everyone from the Jia Ma Empire, please attack that position. If my calculations are correct, that should be the weak spot of the barrier. We will try our best to stop the two black guys, you go and break the barrier."
After hearing Lin Yuan's words, Hai Bodong immediately took action before others could express their doubts about Lin Yuan.
He spread his wings that emitted bursts of icy air, and flew in the direction he pointed without hesitation, while saying to everyone calmly: "Let's go, let's take action."
Fa Ma and Jia Xingtian looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and immediately followed.
Although they didn't know why Hai Bodong was so confident, they were all in the same boat, and Hai Bodong had always been considered a reliable person.
Besides, among them, Hai Bodong was the one who knew this terrifying young man best, so they could only trust his judgment.
Afterwards, Lin Yuan's lips moved slightly, and a secret signal sounded in the ears of Yao Lao and Ling Ying who was hiding in the dark, "The people from the Jia Ma Empire are bait. When I send out a signal, the three of us will immediately attack another weak point in the barrier. The specific location is..."
When Lin Yuan transmitted the weak point of the barrier to the two, he flashed and avoided the chains that attacked from the black fog.
Then, he spread his fighting spirit wings and rose into the sky.
Lin Yuan stared at Guardian Sun with cold eyes and dissolved the Po Yuan Zeng Qi Pill sealed in his body. As the medicinal power dissolved, the Dou Qi in his body suddenly began to surge, constantly exceeding the limit, and in the blink of an eye it was raised to the level of a nine-star Dou Huang.
"Pure Spirit Technique·Empty and Clear·Second Rated Power."
As the Spirit Purification Technique was in operation, Lin Yuan's eyes still showed emotion, but also a bit more indifference and loftiness. In contrast, at this moment, his computing power increased greatly, and even this skyrocketing power could be perfectly controlled with ease.
Immediately, endless green fire gathered in his hands and condensed into a solid spear. The green fire at the end of the spear head swayed, like a green spear tassel.
Holding the spear, Lin Yuan pointed the tip of the spear at Sun the Dharma Protector. After locking onto his aura, he chuckled and said, "Come on, Xiao Hei, let me see how capable you are."
"Xiao Hei? Hehehe?" Upon hearing this name, Guardian Sun's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he said coldly: "Hehehe, you are really an ignorant brat. Even if you use elixirs to improve your cultivation, you are only a nine-star Douhuang."
"After all these years, you are the first one who dares to insult this protector like this. Die before this protector."
After saying this, Protector Sun moved his hand, and a pitch-black chain extended from his palm, winding around his body like a poisonous snake.
Then, he snapped his fingers, and the pitch-black chain hovering beside him suddenly shook, turning into a black line that cut through the sky and shot towards Lin Yuan.
The rattling sound of the chains was like the god of death's scythe, taking lives.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan smiled coldly, a silver light flashed on his body, his figure trembled slightly, and suddenly his figure became somewhat illusory.
"laugh!"
The chain swept down, passing through the body without any hindrance, but there was no result at all - it only hit an afterimage of Lin Yuan.
The afterimage dissipated, and Lin Yuan's figure appeared not far away, looking at Protector Sun indifferently.
"Oh, your speed is pretty good. Is this the source of your confidence?"
Seeing that his invincible chain attack was easily avoided by Lin Yuan, the guardian Sun's face darkened, and then he smiled coldly and pointed his finger. The chain that had missed the target suddenly raised its head again like a poisonous snake and chased after Lin Yuan at lightning speed.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan took some clever steps and moved his body within a range of dozens of meters around him.
After perfecting the connection between Yunlong's body skills and Three Thousand Thunders, Lin Yuan's body skills reached a terrifying level in terms of movement and stillness conversion, speed and flexibility.
His posture was like that of a nimble silver dragon, and the transition between extreme stillness and extreme movement was extremely smooth. He dodged all of Sun Hufa's extremely fast and fierce chain attacks with a nimble and effortless posture.
For Lin Yuan now, it is not easy for him to kill Dou Zong.
However, with his extremely outstanding body movements and powerful soul perception, it is not easy for an ordinary Dou Zong to kill him or even attack him.
As the pursuit continued to be fruitless, Protector Sun's face gradually became ugly.
He didn't expect that Lin Yuan was so slippery. Normally, even a peak Douhuang warrior would be in a very bad state under his attack. But this guy was able to dodge easily, looking very relaxed.
"Hehehe, good boy, I underestimated you. But, how are you going to escape from now on?"
Protector Sun sneered and formed a seal with his hands. Suddenly, black mist swirled around his body. Three black shadows rushed out from behind him with a rustling sound, and finally circled above his head like three poisonous snakes.
"Three stages of soul lock!"
A palm covered with black mist stretched out, and then the handprint changed. The three chains hovering above the head of Sun Hufa suddenly shot towards Lin Yuan with a whistling sound. The three chains flashed and crossed, blocking Lin Yuan's retreat.
Facing three fierce soul locks, Lin Yuan turned into a ray of silver light flying at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, he used his powerful soul perception to sense one of the soul locks.
While flying quickly, he used his soul to circulate his energy, and combined the "Xuan Zi Jue" with the extreme compression characteristics of the Green Fire Fighting Qi, condensed a pure and fierce flame energy on the sharp blade.
When Lin Yuan dodged the pursuit of two soul locks and faced the third soul lock, his eyes suddenly became fierce.
"Right now, Tian Yuan Eight Characters Jue: Break."
The cloud dragon turned around and shot back, hitting the weak point of the energy on the soul lock that Lin Yuan had captured with his soul power perception. Then, the majestic flame energy condensed on the Qinghuo spear and the Qinglian earth core fire on the spear were infused into it.
After a moment of stalemate, the injected flames and energy exploded instantly.
"Boom~" With a loud bang, the soul lock tip that was engraved with mysterious black runes suddenly shattered and flew out backwards.
Lin Yuan turned into a stream of light and continued to dodge the soul locks. After losing one soul lock, the remaining two could no longer block Lin Yuan's flight path. He easily flew out of their attack range.
Seeing that the attack was ineffective, Protector Sun took back the soul lock.
Looking at the broken lock, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. To repair the soul lock, he would have to spend some of the collected souls as consumables.
However, when Protector Sun looked at Lin Yuan, there was a hint of joy and greed in his eyes.
"Boy, I didn't expect you to be an alchemist. You are obviously a Dou Huang, but you have strange fire, and your soul power is so strong. God is really helping me. Even if I can only catch you this time, it will not be a loss for me, the guardian."
In the battle just now, Protector Sun sensed Lin Yuan’s extremely powerful soul power.
"You want my soul?" Lin Yuan smiled faintly and said meaningfully: "This is not easy. You will soon find out that my best skill is not physical skills."
As he spoke, his eyes swept towards Yao Lao and the people of the Gama Empire.
At this time, the people of the Jia Ma Empire were following Lin Yuan's instructions, fiercely attacking the weak points of the barrier, constantly weakening the barrier set up by the Soul Palace guardians.
As for Yao Lao, he had already merged into Xiao Yan's body at this moment, and was using his body to deal with the guardian Wu.
Although Yao Lao was unable to exert his full strength in this state, this was the only way to fight the Soul Palace guardians while protecting Xiao Yan. Otherwise, the aftermath of the fight between Dou Zongs would cost Xiao Yan his life.
The fight between the two was relatively peaceful.
Dharma Protector Wu is waiting for Dharma Protector Sun to deal with Lin Yuan and the people of the Gama Empire and come to help him.
Yao Lao was waiting for the opportunity to send Xiao Yan out after the barrier was broken. After sending Xiao Yan out, it was time to start the life-and-death battle.
And now, it is still the stage of planning to show weakness to the enemy.
They showed a relatively weak fighting power to prevent the Soul Palace guardians from jumping off the wall and using those big killing moves that would consume souls. Therefore, neither Queen Medusa nor Yao Lao's Soul-raising Pills were used.
Noticing Lin Yuan's gaze, Yao Lao nodded slightly, indicating that he was fine.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan nodded and continued his protracted battle with Protector Sun, waiting for the moment when the barrier was broken.
