Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 334 You, surnamed Xiao, you're ruthless! (Supplement: One more chapter will be released tomorrow during the day.)
The path to enlightenment comes quickly, but it also fades quickly.

Before leaving, he waved his sleeve, taking the ancient demon with him.

Originally, some members of the ancient clan wanted to use the ancient demon to show Xiao Bai the gap between him and the geniuses of the ancient clan.

The purpose was unclear; it could be to discourage Xiao Bai, or it could be to calm him down.
Who knew that while there was a gap, and we witnessed it, the effect was the opposite.

"Xiao Bai, I will be waiting for you in the ancient clan. At that time, I hope you can fight 'fairly'!"

Before leaving, Gu Yao's gaze was somewhat gloomy, and he spoke through gritted teeth, emphasizing the word 'fairness' in his tone.

"Heh. Fair!"

Xiao Bai stared at the two who had disappeared, his eyes deep and a playful smile playing on his lips.

“Brother Xiao Bai, don’t mind him. His bloodline concentration is not low, and he has been exposed to the best cultivation conditions in the Ancient Realm since childhood. He has only just reached the four-star Dou Zun. But you are different. Since you broke through to Dou Zhe at the age of fifteen, you have risen step by step from such a remote place as the Northwest Region. In just eight years, you have reached the peak of Dou Zong. Compared with you, he is far inferior. How can a firefly compete with the bright moon?”

Seeing his strange expression, Xun'er gracefully walked over, took his arm, gently shook it, and said indignantly:
"Hmph, you want fairness? If he and you switched places, at the same age, you'd probably still be playing in the mud in Wutan City!"

"Pfft!"

Looking at Xun'er playfully comforting Xiaobai, Little Fairy Doctor couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

The current level of cultivation of a four-star Dou Zun is the fairest for that ancient demon. If Xiao Bai were to break through to Dou Zun, then there would truly be no fairness left.

As someone close to him, she had long noticed Xiaobai's unusual behavior: every time he broke through a realm, he would almost always skip several small steps.

After breaking through to Dou Zun, we still don't know what star he is.

Does the ancient demon want to wait for a fair battle later?
That would be a sad story, a cruel one!
Smelling the delicate fragrance lingering around his nose, Xiao Bai couldn't help but smile, reaching out to rub Xun'er's head without saying a word.

This girl is completely biased towards him, holding nothing back, and protecting him at all times when facing the ancient clan.

The arrival of Elder Tongxuan seemed to have sealed off the space they were in. After he left, the space was unrestricted and reappeared.

Outside Fallen God Gorge, Qiu Ling, who was still locked in a fierce battle with the Old Ghost of Star Picking, was overjoyed to see Xiao Bai freeing up his hands and hurriedly shouted:

"Mr. Xiao Bai, I am Qiu Ling, the Grand Elder of the Pill Tower. The Soul Hall has captured my Pill Tower disciples. I beg you to lend a hand for the sake of the three guild leaders. I would be eternally grateful!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai looked up and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Old Ghost Zhaixing felt a jolt of fear and hurriedly retreated, his eyes filled with vigilance. Despite his confident words to Qiuling, Xiao Bai was now carrying the momentum of his earlier attack on a half-saint, and no one wanted to provoke him, especially given his ambiguous attitude towards the Soul Palace.

While showing no mercy in killing members of the Soul Hall, they also seemed to accept the Soul Hall's invitation without resistance.

"Xiao Bai."

Just as he was about to explain that the attack was all Song Qing's doing, a voice with an underlying authority suddenly came to his ear.

"Forget about Qiu Ling. Killing the three giants of the Pill Tower will definitely bring them here. Take Song Qing and get out of here. Also, remember to have Wu Ying give him a good welcome. Don't let him die too easily!"

Upon hearing this, Zhaixing was somewhat bewildered and instinctively retorted:
"Who do you think you are? I am a respected elder of the Soul Hall, why should I listen to you?"

Just as he was trying to find out who was so reckless as to dare to order him around telepathically, he looked up and was met with a pair of imposing golden vertical pupils. Instantly, cold sweat broke out on his brow, and he swallowed hard.
"Listen, you must listen! I'm leaving now!"

There was nothing he could do. Even if he could call for help, Xiao Bai could kill him before anyone arrived. When you're under someone's roof, you have no choice but to bow your head.

Furthermore, judging from this guy's tone, he doesn't seem to have the same level of disgust towards their Soul Palace as the alchemists on the mainland.

Moreover, he had heard about the invitation from the Heavenly Phoenix Clan. He originally thought Xiao Bai was a seventh-grade alchemist, but he didn't expect him to be an eighth-grade one.

"This matter must be reported immediately. The Hall has been recruiting talented alchemists for years, but unfortunately, many of them have misunderstood our Soul Hall. Only Mu Gu and Han Feng have stepped forward, but both of them are now dead. We cannot afford to miss this opportunity!"

Xiao Bai is likely not an ordinary eighth-rank official; otherwise, given the arrogance of those scoundrels, they would never have made that offer.

Having thought of this, I had no more hesitation.

"Hehehe, Qiuling, I'll put your soul power on my tab for now and collect it later!"

The old ghost who picked stars chuckled, glancing furtively at Xiao Bai. Seeing that he made no move, he gave a low shout to the surrounding protectors:
"let's go!"

With a flick of his sleeve, he transformed into a black mist that blotted out the sky. Many guardians hid within the black mist and disappeared several miles away in a few breaths.

"Old ghost who picks stars, return my disciple!"

Qiu Ling's expression changed. He knew very well that once Song Qing entered the Soul Palace, there would be no chance of saving him. He hurriedly tried to catch up with her.

"You thief of the Soul Palace, don't leave!"

Seeing this, Xiao Bai took a step forward, blocking the way in front of the Pill Tower's Grand Elder. He immediately raised his arm, and the energy in the world surged wildly. A giant purple-gold palm covered the black mist like a cloak of the sky.

"Damn it, that bastard broke his promise!"

Feeling the immense pressure, Old Ghost Zhaixing's eyes bulged, his face filled with horror, and he cursed inwardly.

What happened to getting lost?
Seeing this imposing presence, Qiu Ling's eyes lit up with wild joy. The three guild leaders had not misjudged Xiao Bai; he was a man to be trifled with.

Sure enough, what that old ghost who picked stars said earlier was just a common trick of the Soul Palace to sow discord. How could he fall for it?

As he stroked his beard, waiting for his disciple to return safely, his expression froze, and the smile on his face gradually solidified.

"Humph!"

A muffled groan came from Xiao Bai in front of him, his face quickly turned pale, and his aura fluctuated for a moment before rapidly declining.

In the blink of an eye, he had reached the Dou Zong realm, and the massive purple-gold palm in the sky, seemingly overwhelming in power, paused slightly just before striking the black mist, and then…

"boom--"

With a deafening roar, the palm print grazed the edge of the black mist and crashed down, creating a massive crater thousands of feet in diameter on the ground. A violent energy storm swept in all directions, yet the black mist managed to escape by a narrow margin.

"Oops, my hand slipped. Why did my life essence run out at this time, causing my palm print to go out of control? Is this fate?"

Xiao Bai withdrew his hand and shook his head with a regretful expression.

hills:"……"

Old Ghost Who Picks Stars: "..."

Everyone present: "..."

Accidental slip of the hand?

You, a powerful figure who could just hold your own against a half-saint, are you going to slip up when you make a move?
The old ghost who picks stars was stunned at first, then realized what was going on and cursed inwardly: "This bastard should have said he was acting earlier! He scared me so much that I was just waiting to die with my eyes closed!"

After realizing what had happened, he didn't dare to stay any longer. This guy was too cunning. Even though he was a Dou Zong now, if he really cursed him out, his cultivation level might drop and then rise again immediately.

Taking advantage of the aftershock of that palm strike, the black mist churned and increased in speed, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Qiu Ling stared blankly at the vanished Soul Palace group, his face alternating between pale and ashen, looking extremely unwell. What a coincidence! Just as his life essence was depleted, his hand slipped by a tiny bit, and the palm print just barely grazed the Soul Palace members' skin as it fell, leaving them completely unharmed. The resulting gust of wind even sent them flying further, helping them run faster.

Is this reasonable? This is absolutely unreasonable!
He suspected that Xiao Bai was acting against him, but he had no proof.

"Ahem. I am ashamed, Elder Qiu, please accept my condolences!"

Xiao Bai's face was pale. He coughed lightly, and a trace of crimson blood slid down the corner of his mouth.

Qiu Ling's eye twitched violently. His apprentice wasn't dead yet, so why was he mourning?

He was starting to believe what Old Ghost Zhaixing had said; his disciple might actually offend Xiao Bai at some point.

However, Xiao Bai's acting skills were excellent, and he couldn't find a single flaw. The other party had acted at his invitation and even made a scene like this. Anyone who saw it would praise him for being loyal and righteous.

“Mr. Xiao, there’s no need for that. Perhaps, as you say, it is my ‘good-for-nothing’ disciple’s fate. I urgently need to return to the Pill Tower to report this matter. Farewell!”

Qiu Ling, his face dark and filled with resentment, strode into the room.

Suddenly, the figure in the spatial passage paused for a moment without turning around, and a stream of light flew out and hovered in front of Xiao Bai.

"This is an eighth-grade 'Life-Giving and Restoring Pill,' which is somewhat effective in healing injuries. Consider it a small token of my gratitude to Mr. Xiao for his help."

Xiao Bai was taken aback. He looked at the gradually closing spatial passage, reached out and took the jade box in front of him, opened it directly, and a rich fragrance of pills wafted out.

Looking at the perfectly round, emerald-green pill lying in the box, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh:
"Tsk tsk. Master is a good master, but it's a pity he's blind to have taken such a treacherous villain as his disciple!"

"Who are you calling a 'bastard'?"

An aged voice suddenly rang out behind him. Xiao Bai turned around and saw Xiao Yan with an innocent look on his face. His gaze fell and stopped on the dark ring on Xiao Yan's hand.

".!"

There are actually people who take the insults?
Too lazy to pay attention to this sensitive old man, he tossed the box in his hand to Xiao Yan.

"Give it to you!"

After saying that, he turned around to face Xun'er and the others who were flying towards him.

"Brother Bai, this is an eighth-grade pill. You're not in good shape right now, and that's exactly when you need it. Why are you giving it to me?"

Xiao Yan took the jade box, looked at the figure in front of him who was walking a little unsteadily, scratched his head, and looked puzzled.

"I dare not take the pills that Qiu Ling gave me, for fear they might be poisonous!"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then his face visibly darkened completely. He squeezed the jade box in his hand so hard it made a "crunching" sound, wishing he could immediately conjure a fire lotus and slap it hard on Xiao Yan's face.

He rushed over as soon as he heard that this bastard was being attacked, but he never expected him to be so 'heartless and insane'!
"You're ruthless, Xiao!"

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, but his hands moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he put away the jade box.

Tang Huo'er watched in a daze, then her eyes became thoughtful. She looked at Xiao Bai's back and then at Xiao Yan's pale face, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

These two Xiao brothers are really interesting!
As an eighth-grade alchemist, how could Xiao Bai not see whether there was a problem with a pill? As for Xiao Yan, although he was cursing, there was warmth flowing in his eyes.

“Brother Xiao Bai”

Seeing Xiao Bai swaying precariously, Xun'er panicked and quickly rushed to his side, embracing him.

Little Fairy Doctor was a step too slow. Only she knew about the feud between Xiao Bai and Song Qing. She originally thought he was putting on an act for the people of the Pill Tower, but now she realized something was wrong. He didn't seem to be faking it.

He grabbed his arm and used his soul power to examine his physical condition; his face immediately changed color.

"noob."

Little Fairy Doctor's voice trembled slightly, "How could your meridians be like this?"

Xiao Bai forced a smile: "It's nothing. It's just a slight backlash from forcibly activating my essence blood earlier."

He was ultimately just a Dou Zong. He seemed to have no problem with taking a hit from a Half-Saint, but he was just putting on a brave face!

No powerful force can be used without a cost, let alone this time, which is almost equivalent to crossing three major realms.

Dou Zun, Nine-Turn Dou Zun, Half-Saint
Fortunately, he had a strong constitution and withstood the backlash; otherwise, he would have exploded and died long ago!
In fact, he wouldn't have had much of a problem if he were only at the Dou Zun realm, but who knew that a half-saint powerhouse would suddenly appear, which caused the unexpected turn of events.

"Brother Bai, you..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly ran over, took out the pills he had just put away, and a look of self-reproach appeared in his eyes.

"Keep it, it's not of much use to my injuries!"

Xiao Bai shook his head and did not take it. His injuries were twofold: firstly, to his meridians, and secondly, to the level of a half-saint. These were injuries that this elixir could not address.

This 'Life-Giving and Restoring Elixir' has some effect on internal injuries, but its effect on injuries to the meridians is negligible.

Moreover, although it is called the eighth grade, it is just an ordinary eighth grade, and it is only one color.

Considering how dark Qiu Ling's face was, it's already quite a feat that he could produce this pill. What more could you expect from him?
“Little Yanzi, your brother Bai is right. This pill is a holy medicine for healing you, but for him, it’s just a drop in the ocean.”

The old man sighed softly, his voice echoing in Xiao Yan's mind.

Xiao Bai is incredibly audacious. He actually dared to release such a vast amount of energy at once, pushing his cultivation to that level in one fell swoop. He's practically a madman.

Just as everyone was worried, a rich, refreshing fragrance suddenly filled the air.

"Heavenly Vein Jade Marrow Pill, a peak Rank 8 pill?!"

Xun'er opened the jade box she took out of her storage ring. Inside lay a pill covered in mysterious patterns. She carefully picked it up with her two slender fingers and gently placed it near Xiao Bai's lips, saying with a composed expression:

"Brother Xiao Bai, if you dare to refuse, Xun'er, Xun'er..."

After thinking for a moment, unsure how to threaten him, an idea suddenly struck him, and he blurted out:
Xun'er won't talk to you for three days!

After speaking, seeing the astonished looks around them, they realized that this was not a private conversation between the two of them, especially the strange looks from the ancient clans.

It was as if she was saying, "I never expected you to be this kind of rich young lady."

Xun'er's face flushed slightly, her eyes darting around, and she forcefully shoved the pill into Xiao Bai's mouth.

Suddenly, she felt a soft, warm touch on her hand. Xun'er subconsciously squeezed it, and when she looked down, her face turned as red as a cloth, all the way to her ears.

Her small hand was pulled out of Xiao Bai's mouth as if she had been electrocuted. She felt a pang of embarrassment and her jade feet arched slightly, as if she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and disappear into it.

Thinking about that feeling just now, my heart pounded, as if an electric current shot from my feet to the top of my head, sending a tingling sensation through my whole body.

Xiao Bai was held tightly in Xun'er's arms. He blinked speechlessly. He felt like he was being teased, but he had no proof.
