Chapter 154: Breaking the Barrier and Escape
As time went by, the barrier carefully set up by Guardians Wu and Sun finally began to show signs of instability.
When the two of them were setting up the barrier, they did not set up a too powerful space barrier in order to avoid making too much noise and alerting Yao Lao. In addition, the battle between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran was not very long.
As the powerful forces of the Gama Empire continued to attack the weak points of the barrier, the barrier finally loosened and began to shake violently.
When the people of the Gama Empire saw this, a hint of joy flashed in their eyes.
"Xuan Bing Long Xiang!"
"The divine fire burns!"
"Thick Earth Palm!"
Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma, both at the peak of Dou Huang, and Hai Bodong, at the Seven-Star Dou Huang, all used their unique skills at the same time. Three incredibly powerful fighting skills, like a violent storm, simultaneously bombarded the weak spot of the barrier pointed out by Lin Yuan.
“Huahuahuahua.”
It was as if a calm lake was hit by a huge rock. Waves of spatial ripples spread out from the points where the three people's attacks landed, and the entire spatial barrier shook violently.
Guardian Wu, who was struggling with Yao Lao, felt the rapid weakening of the space barrier. He shouted angrily, "Guardian Sun, what are you doing? Why haven't you dealt with that guy yet? Deal with him quickly, and then go get rid of those ants over there."
"If we don't get rid of them, the barrier we set up might be broken. Then, we'll be in trouble."
At the same time, he couldn't help but curse in his heart: "What a waste. He is just a Douhuang kid, but it took him so long to capture him. He is really a disgrace to our Soul Palace guardians."
Upon hearing this, Guardian Sun looked at Lin Yuan coldly, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes, "Guardian Wu, be careful, this kid is very strange."
He originally planned to deal with this kid who dared to challenge him, and then deal with the people from the Gama Empire who attempted to destroy the barrier.
However, Lin Yuan was much more difficult to deal with than Sun Hufa had imagined. He had already used a lot of his conventional tricks, but he still couldn't take down this slippery boy, and it seemed that he was always just a hair's breadth away.
Thinking of this, Protector Sun looked at the people of the Gama Empire with a cold gaze, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
“Hehehe, I will first deal with those guys who want to shake the barrier, and then I will slowly fight you. I don’t believe that your strength temporarily increased by the elixir can be maintained forever.”
Protector Sun sneered, wrapped in black mist, and rushed towards the people of the Gama Empire like lightning, launching a fierce attack on them.
"Hehehe, you ants from the Jia Ma Empire, if you dare to move the barrier, you will be courting death."
Seeing this, Lin Yuan's mind flashed with joy, but he pretended to be angry and shouted sternly: "Guardian Sun, stop it!"
Then, he shouted in a low voice: "Blood essence transformation!"
With this shout, Lin Yuan's aura surged again, with faint signs of breaking through the Dou Huang realm and reaching the Dou Zong realm.
At this moment, the aura he exudes is no less than that of Yunshan, whom he faced last year.
At the same time, an extremely condensed energy began to gather in Lin Yuan's hands, and terrifying energy fluctuations spread out from between his palms.
"Three Light Seals: Sun Shining Seal."
Everyone present, especially Protector Sun, had a flash of astonishment and solemnity in their eyes after sensing this aura.
"Is it a secret method to temporarily improve strength? This kid actually has such a hidden card." Sun Hufa, who was fighting with the strong men of the Jia Ma Empire, looked slightly depressed. "Moreover, the fighting skill in his hand is definitely not ordinary, it is extremely advanced."
And at the moment when Lin Yuan was condensing the Three Lights Seal, Yao Lao, as if with a tacit understanding, gently wiped his palm across the pitch-black Xuan Zhong ruler.
Suddenly, the vast energy of heaven and earth gathered towards the ruler, and the dark ruler emitted a dazzling white light like the sun, making it impossible to look directly at it.
"The Flame Devouring Wave Ruler."
At the same time, Ling Ying's figure also mysteriously emerged from the creeping air, and the aura emanating from his body was no less than that of Lin Yuan.
As his hand seals flew, a vast black energy mist came out of his body and gathered in his palms.
After a moment, a black spear with strange patterns on it, about seven or eight feet long, took shape. Black mist rose from the tip of the spear, adding a bit of eerie atmosphere to the dangerous spear.
"Devil Snake Bite."
"Another Dou Zong level combat power?" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
However, the three did not hesitate because of the surprise of the crowd. Lin Yuan had already formed the Sun Seal in his hand, and he shouted: "Everyone from the Jia Ma Empire, hold on! Senior Yao, let's work together to deal with your opponent first."
Before he finished speaking, the auras of the three people had already locked onto the protector Wu at the same time.
Seeing this, the guardian Wu's face changed slightly, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. It would be difficult for him to take on a triple Dou Zong-level attack.
Then, he changed his handprints suddenly, and a more violent black mist came out of the body of the Wu Guardian. Then, the black mist spun around him crazily, gathering together to form an indestructible black barrier.
"Mori Soul Guardian."
In another battle circle, Protector Sun had already killed a Dou Wang and firmly suppressed the powerful men of the Gama Empire.
He saw Lin Yuan, Yao Lao and Ling Ying trying to focus their fire on the guardian Wu, and a hint of joy suddenly emerged in his heart. As long as the guardian Wu could withstand this round of heavy blows, he would be in a more advantageous position in the subsequent distribution of combat power.
At the same time, his gaze fell on Lin Yuan, and a cunning gleam flashed in his eyes.
"The gap in the attack is the best opportunity for a sneak attack. This guardian will take the soul of this kid."
"Protector Wu, die." An angry shout burst out from Lin Yuan's mouth.
In an instant, the three of them tacitly aimed at the direction at the last moment and released the moves in their hands. A seal like a blazing sun, a huge ruler-like light ten feet wide, and a black energy spear that turned into seven or eight feet long instantly cut through the sky and whistled out.
However, these three attacks did not fly towards the target mentioned by Lin Yuan - the guardian Wu, but tacitly flew towards another weak point in the space barrier that Lin Yuan told him about.
"Not good, their target is not me, but the barrier."
The moment the guardian Wu saw several people launching attacks, he immediately realized that he was being tricked.
However, the situation could no longer be stopped.
The weak point of the barrier was instantly penetrated by the bombardment of three Dou Zong-level ground-connecting fighting skills, and a huge crack appeared.
Immediately afterwards, countless cracks extended from this crack as the center.
On the other side, Guardian Sun took advantage of the gap when Lin Yuan released his attack and flew towards him like lightning. Although he was a little disappointed that they attacked the barrier instead of Guardian Wu, he was more happy at this time - the time to capture Lin Yuan had come.
Several pitch-black chains carrying fierce energy suddenly attacked in the brief gap after Lin Yuan released the Sun Seal.
"Be careful!" Seeing this, Hai Bodong couldn't help but shout loudly to warn.
However, it was too late.
Protector Sun's face, which was covered by black fog, showed a look of joy. This slippery and tricky boy could not avoid this attack.
"Boy, offer your soul to this guardian."
Under the gazes of many people with different thoughts, the black chain suddenly came.
However, at this critical moment, the space where Lin Yuan's body was located suddenly twisted. As the space twisted, the chain, which had originally had a perfect trajectory, suddenly deviated from its direction and whizzed past Lin Yuan's body.
This sudden scene caused an uproar in the audience.
The attack that he was determined to win failed. After being stunned for a moment, Guardian Sun shouted sternly: "I don't know which Dou Zong is hiding here, please don't meddle in other people's business, otherwise..." "Otherwise, what else can you do?"
A cold voice sounded, and a woman in a colorful dress appeared out of thin air. She stepped into the air, blocked Lin Yuan's way, and looked at Guardian Sun coldly.
When the woman in the colorful skirt appeared, all eyes were instantly diverted to her.
When everyone saw that the person who appeared was a charming woman whose appearance and aura were completely unknown, they were stunned. A completely unfamiliar aura, was it another Dou Zong who came from the mainland?
Without paying attention to the surprise and confusion of the crowd, Lin Yuan waved his hand, and several green flame bombs appeared out of thin air and shot towards Protector Sun.
"We can't stay here for long. Everyone, let's retreat."
Before he finished speaking, the purple cloud wings behind Lin Yuan suddenly opened, pulling Queen Medusa, and flew towards the gap in the crack at a terrifying speed.
At the same time, Yao Lao, who was controlling Xiao Yan's body, and Ling Ying, also released their restraining attacks in perfect harmony, then shot out from behind the gap in the crack and flew out of the range of the barrier.
Upon seeing this, the protectors Wu and Sun looked at each other, and the fierceness in their eyes increased sharply. Was the duck that they had caught going to fly away?
They must never allow this to happen.
"Chase him. Even if it costs a heavy price, we must not let Yao Chen escape."
Before they finished speaking, the two of them flashed and turned into two black mists, rushing out like lightning and chasing in the direction of Lin Yuan and his companions. Soon, the two black mists quickly disappeared from the sight of everyone in the Jiama Empire.
When everyone in the Gama Empire saw this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, finally escaping this disaster.
"I can't see the world clearly these days." Jia Xingtian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said helplessly, "There haven't been many Dou Zongs in the Jia Ma Empire for decades, but I didn't expect to encounter so many today."
Fa Ma threw a pill towards Jia Xingtian and sighed, "Who said it wasn't true? Besides, the difference in combat power between the peak Dou Huang and Dou Zong is really as huge as the difference between heaven and earth."
After swallowing the healing pill, Jia Xingtian patted Fa Ma on the shoulder and said calmly: "Old Fa, don't be discouraged. Those Dou Zongs are not ordinary. They are much stronger than Yun Shan who fought with me after breaking through to Dou Zong."
Then, he turned his gaze to Hai Bodong and asked in a deep voice: "Old Hai, what is the origin of your distinguished guest? His age and strength are a bit exaggerated!"
Thinking of the fight just now, Jia Xingtian still had lingering fears. He had a deep understanding of the strength of Sun Hufa. He suppressed all the high-end masters of their Jiama Empire by himself, and in this case, he easily killed a Dou Wang of his own side.
However, the young man who looked about the same age as Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had been fighting alone with the other side for a long time and had not shown any signs of defeat.
This kind of genius and this kind of performance were beyond Jia Xingtian's imagination.
Compared with them, even Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran, who shined brightly today, seemed dull.
Hai Bodong calmed down his disordered breath and said calmly: "He doesn't want too many people to know his identity. Are you sure you want to continue asking? Add Old Ghost."
Jia Xingtian pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said in a deep voice: "In that case, I won't ask any more questions."
After a pause, his voice became more earnest. "It's just that, Old Man Hai, I hope that you can help me and the Gama Empire because of our friendship over the years. If you have the chance, please introduce that friend to me. As the host, my royal family has a generous gift to send off."
Hearing this, Hai Bodong pondered for a moment and said seriously: "I can promise you this, but I can't guarantee whether he is willing to meet."
Hearing this, Jia Xingtian patted Hai Bodong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "That's enough! Thank you, Old Man Hai."
Then, his eyes swept across the Yunlan Sect.
At this time, the Yunlan Sect was in ruins due to the battle between many powerful people. Even many disciples died in the aftermath of the battle.
Jia Xingtian's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said meaningfully: "Under today's situation, Yunshan, Yunling and others still haven't shown up. It seems that the information is true, and Yunshan is really in trouble. What do you two think?"
Upon hearing this, Fa Ma glanced at Jia Xingtian and said calmly, "Old Jia, this matter is not urgent and needs to be discussed together. Now, let's leave first. It's not safe here."
After saying this, he thought about Yao Lao's affairs while calling on the people from the Alchemist Guild to fly towards the foot of Yunlan Mountain.
Hai Bodong also left Yunlan Sect with the people of the Mitel family after leaving a sentence "I agree with Pharaoh Ghost's opinion".
Jia Xingtian looked at the backs of the two men, and glanced at the people who were fleeing down the mountain after the barrier was completely shattered. He thought to himself: "It seems that the Yunlan Sect's affairs cannot be rushed!"
Immediately, he also flew down the mountain with the royal family members who came to watch the battle today.
At a certain spot in the square, Nalan Jie looked at Nalan Yanran and asked, "Yanran, are you really not going back with me? This place is not safe."
Nalan Yanran looked at the devastated and wailing Yunlan Sect, shook her head, and said solemnly: "Grandpa, the sect is in trouble, and our teacher and grandmaster are not here. As the young master of Yunlan Sect, I should shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect."
"Hey, it seems that you have really grown up. Then I, your grandpa, will respect your decision this time!" After saying that, Nalan Jie waved his hand, turned around and left Yunlan Sect.
In fact, Nalan Jie thought he would be angry with Nalan Yanran.
After all, today he personally witnessed Xiao Yan's potential and the huge power hidden behind him. He was simply an ideal son-in-law for the Nalan family. However, Nalan Yanran's willful act of breaking off the engagement caused the Nalan family to lose this son-in-law.
However, when Nalan Jie thought of her determination in the battle and saw that her face was still pale after taking the healing medicine, he seemed to feel much relieved.
"Forget it, maybe this is fate." Nalan Jie sighed inwardly, and consoled himself in a way that made him happy in the midst of suffering: "Xiao Lin's grandson is not unique and outstanding. The young man behind is really terrifying. Maybe Yanran will meet a husband like that in the future."
After watching Nalan Jie leave, Nalan Yanran turned her gaze to Gu He.
At this time, Gu He was looking at the direction where Lin Yuan and the others left, his heart was surging, "I didn't expect to encounter three kinds of strange fire today, but it's a pity that none of them belongs to me. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, I think it's the one in the Tagor Desert."
Some thoughts flashed through Gu He's mind, but when he recalled the terrifying fighting power displayed by Lin Yuan, he immediately and consciously suppressed the unrealistic thoughts in his mind.
"Never mind. That person is indeed more qualified than me to possess it. Perhaps, I, Gu He, am not destined to receive the strange fire."
Shaking his head, Gu He looked at Nalan Yanran and asked softly, "Yanran, how is your injury recovering?"
"Thanks to your medicine, I feel much better now. Yanran wants to ask you for a favor."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"The current situation of Yunlan Sect is dangerous, so I want to enter the Gate of Life and Death in advance and gain the strength to take on the heavy responsibility of Yunlan as soon as possible. I hope you can help me convince Elder Yunming who is in charge now. He is quite conservative, so is it difficult to convince him?"
"What? The Gate of Life and Death?"
On the other side, Lin Yuan, Yao Lao and others flew away from Yunlan Sect and rushed towards the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
Behind them, two dark shadows were chasing them at high speed.
"Sure enough, this group of monsters are very fast. Not only can we not get rid of them, but the distance between us is also getting closer." Lin Yuan's eyes were slightly stern, and he said solemnly: "Senior, execute according to the plan. It seems that this battle is inevitable."
Yao Lao, who was possessed by Xiao Yan, nodded, called out "Ling Ying", and then separated from Xiao Yan with the Bone Flame Ring and transformed into a soul state.
Ling Ying tacitly took on Xiao Yan, whose Dou Zong-level power was retreating.
"Execute according to the plan. Take Xiao Yan away from here first. After hiding him, come back to join the battle." Yao Lao said solemnly, and then looked at the guardians Wu and Sun who were chasing after them. "I, Tianshu, and Queen Medusa will stop the two of them."
Xiao Yan looked at the three of them deeply, but did not say much. It must be that Yao Lao had already made all the arrangements when he possessed him.
"Go!" Yao Lao shouted softly.
Then, he, Lin Yuan and Queen Medusa looked at each other.
Nodding, the three of them suddenly turned around and stopped abruptly against the trend.
Immediately, the three of them launched the attacks they had prepared in their hands towards the two guardians who were chasing after them.
