"Damn it!"
Just after the first exchange, Old Silver Snake and the Dou Huang did not gain the upper hand. The two Dou Huangs working together actually gained no advantage against Hai Bodong!
"Tsk, this Izumo Empire isn't all that. Two Dou Huangs working together can't even defeat a five-star Dou Huang. How embarrassing."
The strong cultivators who had come to observe from afar mocked.
A layer of gloom settled over the Izumo Empire's side. In the battle in the sky, the fight between Jia Xingtian and the Emperor of Chuyun was also nearing its conclusion. Jia Xingtian, after all, had a stable Realm advantage over the Emperor of Chuyun.
"Let this old man handle it," a white-haired old man with a slight hunchback slowly walked out.
The old man wore ordinary clothes, his aged face expressionless. His seemingly cloudy eyes, however, held a chilling glint. In his hand, he leaned on a pitch-black staff. On the staff was a particularly ferocious scorpion head, and on the scorpion head's forehead, a faint, almost imperceptible purple light flickered.
"Xie Bi Yan!" Hai Bodong naturally recognized this strong cultivator from the Izumo Empire. He was considered an old monster.
"Heh heh, Hai Bodong, let this old man witness your ice," Xie Bi Yan's purple Dou Qi wings vibrated behind him, and he quickly arrived before Hai Bodong, striking with a poisoned palm.
"Profound Ice Shield!"
Hai Bodong quickly condensed an ice shield to block Xie Bi Yan's attack.
Swoosh—
But Xie Bi Yan's poisoned palm was extremely powerful, directly corroding Hai Bodong's ice shield. Hai Bodong immediately retreated. Close combat with a poison master was extremely disadvantageous; the best method was to maintain distance and attack.
However, Xie Bi Yan was not an ordinary poison master after all. Among the strong cultivators of the Izumo Empire, Xie Bi Yan was also among the strongest.
Yun Shan frowned. He knew Xie Bi Yan's strength and Hai Bodong's strength, then shook his head: "Hai Bodong is going to lose. A four-star cultivation Realm gap cannot be bridged."
Among the Dou Huang strong cultivators of the Jia Ma Empire, Hai Bodong was the youngest, but his talent was exceptional, which was his capital for pride.
Rumble—
The Dou Qi scorpion conjured by Xie Bi Yan shattered the five ice dragons created by Hai Bodong. Hai Bodong was defeated by Xie Bi Yan.
Yun Shan spread his Dou Qi wings behind him and flew into the sky to catch Hai Bodong. At this moment, Hai Bodong's Dou Qi was in disarray, his Aura somewhat weak, and he was poisoned. Fighting a poison master, the potent poison was truly impossible to guard against.
Old Wang, with his Dou Qi wings, now arrived next to Yun Shan. He poured out a healing Elixir from his storage ring, then took out an antidote Elixir and put it into Hai Bodong's mouth.
After taking the Elixir, Hai Bodong's pale face finally regained some color, and the purple poison on his neck began to recede.
"Thank you, Old Man Yun, Old Wang."
Yun Shan nodded. Hai Bodong was fine now, and he was also preparing to join the battle. His opponent would be Xie Bi Yan.
"Xie Bi Yan, leave him to this old man."
Jia Xingtian descended from the sky, carrying the battered and unrecognizable Emperor of Chuyun.
A six-star Dou Huang challenging a nine-star Dou Huang, one had to say this Emperor of Chuyun was quite brave, even wanting to fight above his Realm.
At this moment, Jia Xingtian's Aura reached its Peak, subtly reaching the Peak Dou Huang level.
Yun Shan narrowed his eyes, then nodded in agreement with Jia Xingtian. Old Wang also nodded in agreement. Today, it was as if the sun rose from the west; Jia Xingtian, that old fellow, was actually eager for battle.
"Xie Bi Yan, come fight!"
Jia Xingtian transformed into a yellow stream of light and charged towards Xie Bi Yan. Xie Bi Yan did not dare to be careless and also attacked with full force.
What followed was a grand free-for-all, a grand free-for-all among Dou Huang strong cultivators and a grand free-for-all among Dou Kings.
Yun Shan, due to his high strength, was specially targeted by the Izumo Empire. Three Dou Huang strong cultivators jointly battled Yun Shan. Yun Shan, holding a sharp sword, fought fiercely against the three Dou Huangs.
Old Wang, on his side, battled the Alchemist Guild Master of the Izumo Empire. This Chuyun Guild Master's strength was far inferior to Old Wang's, and he was directly beaten by Old Wang into a frantic retreat.
The Chuyun Guild Master, Fu Hai, seeing that he was no match for Old Wang, immediately called for strong cultivators to surround Old Wang.
One Dou Huang and four Dou Kings answered the call to besiege Old Wang.
Did Old Wang not have any help on his side? The Cloud Mist Sect's Grand Elder, Yun Ji, and two Dou Kings from the Jia Ma Empire's Ten Strongest arrived to assist.
"Ice Emperor! This old man will make you wish for death!" Old Silver Snake noticed Hai Bodong resting in the rear, not participating in the battle.
This old ghost felt humiliated by Hai Bodong's earlier feat of fighting two alone, as Hai Bodong had risen by stepping on him and another Dou Huang.
Old Silver Snake could not allow such a person to rise by stepping on him, so Old Silver Snake decided to kill Hai Bodong today!
"Hai Bodong! Die!"
Old Silver Snake, with boundless poisonous Qi in his hands, charged towards Hai Bodong.
"Heavenly Flame Slash!"
"Profound Ice Vortex Kill!"
Hai Bodong naturally noticed Old Silver Snake's movements and decisively attacked. Xiao Li, standing outside the arena, also attacked when he saw the Izumo Empire's Dou Huang charging.
One white, one gold, a dual attack of ice and fire, landed on Old Silver Snake, utterly killing him.
Pfft—
Hai Bodong, having been injured from his earlier fight with Xie Bi Yan, now forcefully used a Dou Technique again, causing his recently stabilized injuries to relapse.
"Elder Hai, please rest for a moment. If you continue to fight, you might just perish here. Here's a Restoration Pill, please take it."
Xiao Li came to Hai Bodong's side, supported his unsteady body, and then took out a pale yellow Elixir.
"Thanks." Hai Bodong glanced at this extremely young man, naturally knowing he was also from the Jia Ma Empire. He took the Elixir, then suddenly thought of something.
"Young man, could you be Old Wang's Disciple?"
Xiao Li smiled: "Indeed, it is I."
Hai Bodong didn't know what to say. He had just noticed that this young man possessed considerable strength, and together they had slain Old Silver Snake. Hai Bodong admitted that if it had only been his attack, he probably would have only barely managed to repel Old Silver Snake.
Hai Bodong couldn't help but lament that the new waves were pushing the old ones forward.
Xiao Li stood next to Hai Bodong, watching the battle in the sky. He had just sensed an extremely dense surge of World Energy gathering.
In the sky,
Yun Shan was locked in battle with three Dou Huangs from the Izumo Empire. Yun Shan's personal cultivation had reached nine-star Dou Huang. The three Dou Huangs from the Izumo Empire gained no advantage whatsoever; instead, they sustained quite a few injuries.
Fighting a wind-attribute Dou Huang was too difficult. Their speed was fast, their attacks fierce, and they had a complete advantage in the sky.
Yun Shan narrowed his eyes, his left index and middle fingers pressed together, accumulating Dou Qi. At the same time, Yun Shan began to switch from offense to defense.
After fighting for a while, the three Dou Huangs from the Izumo Empire felt strange. Why wasn't Yun Shan's attack as fierce as before? Could it be!
"Wind's Extreme, Meteorite Kill!"
The air around Yun Shan instantly solidified. His finger abruptly pointed at his opponents, and with a sharp shout, a white light flashed violently from his fingertip. An extremely slender beam of light shot out. As soon as the light appeared, the surrounding space violently trembled.
"Not good! Quick…"
Pfft—
The positions of the two Evil Poison brothers were one in front and one behind. Both were struck by Yun Shan's attack, as if strung together by a single thread.
The entire venue was shocked!
Yun Shan, the Sect Master of the Cloud Mist Sect, killed two Dou Huangs of the Izumo Empire with this one move, stunning the entire audience.
This was even more astonishing than Hai Bodong fighting two Dou Huangs alone just now!
"Damn it! Damned Jia Ma Empire, damned Cloud Mist Sect!"
The Dou Huang who had luckily survived felt somewhat fortunate that he had dodged just now, or perhaps Yun Shan hadn't aimed at him. This Dou Huang turned and ran. Why wouldn't he run? Was he waiting for death?
