Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 338 My daughter's companion magical beast is a disgrace to the clan!
Thunder surged through his meridians like a thousand wild horses breaking free of their reins.

In the center of the main hall, a phantom image of a Tai Chi diagram rotated continuously.

The mysterious pattern, originally composed of yin and yang, now shone with intense golden light, constantly compressing the space filled with silver light, creating an extremely discordant appearance.

Xiao Bai sat cross-legged on it, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. The Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder within his body was raging, with golden lightning bolts constantly bursting out from his pores. The space within three zhang around him was distorted by the high temperature, exuding an aura of extreme strength and yang.

Just now, the instant he unleashed the Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder, the fragile balance on the Tai Chi diagram shattered. The Yin polarity, devoid of anything to suppress it, was like a rootless duckweed, utterly powerless before the Yang polarity.

Without much hesitation, he took out a jade bottle from his storage ring. It was the bottle containing the extreme yin power of the old man from Ice River Valley, and he crushed it without a second thought.

"boom"

The moment the extreme yin energy flowed down his arm and landed on the Tai Chi diagram on the ground, extreme heat and extreme cold, extreme yang and extreme yin collided violently.

Xiao Bai's body trembled rapidly a few times, and he groaned. The sensation of being torn between ice and fire made him feel "incredibly sour and refreshing".

A powerful wave of energy suddenly spread outwards, raging towards the outside of the hall, but upon hitting the dark blue wall, it rippled with circles of transparent waves.

That was the soul seal he set up after closing the main hall; otherwise, this Xuanbing Hall alone would not have been able to withstand the devastation of the Demon-Slaying Divine Thunder within his body.

With the addition of the extreme Yin power, the one-sided situation was immediately brought under control. The pure black extreme Yin power was instantly absorbed by the Tai Chi pattern and merged into the constantly shrinking silver light, making it shine brightly. It struggled to resist the golden light and gradually expanded the area within the pattern, thus restoring balance.

"Right now. Yin and Yang in harmony, the sun and moon coexisting."

As if sensing something beforehand, a glint flashed in Xiao Bai's half-closed eyes, and his hands quickly formed a hand seal, a peculiar rhythm rising from the pattern beneath his feet.

In the darkness, I passed through the main hall and through the endless void.
On this day, the glacier valley, which was shrouded in dark clouds all year round, suddenly became bright.

In the side hall, Little Fairy Doctor, who was tending to the alchemy furnace, twitched her eyebrows slightly. Ignoring the medicinal herbs in the furnace, she swayed and instantly appeared above the Ice River Valley.

The moment she looked up, her beautiful eyes widened in shock at the sight of the glacier valley.

The dark clouds that seemed unchanging for millennia suddenly began to churn violently, like boiling water.

In the blink of an eye, a dazzling golden light suddenly shone across the sky and earth, as if a divine sword had cleaved through the thick clouds.

The golden light contained the most yang and powerful energy, and wherever it passed, the dark clouds melted away as quickly as snow meeting boiling water.

Almost at the same time
Another beam of cool, silvery-white light pierced through the clouds from the opposite direction. The light was as cool and gentle as water, yet it contained a powerful force that could not be ignored.

Two beams of light intertwined in the sky above the glacier valley. The golden light was as fiery as flames, while the silver light was as clear as water. They were intertwined yet distinct.

The entire valley, illuminated by this strange light, presented a dreamlike scene—

Half of it was dyed gold, like daytime; the other half was immersed in silver, like a moonlit night.

As time passed, the strange phenomenon in the sky became increasingly spectacular. Golden light and dazzling silver light began to swirl and rotate around each other, forming a perfect yin-yang pattern.

The essence of the sun and moon cascades down like a waterfall, forming showers of light in the valley.

"The power of the stars?"

The Little Fairy Doctor stretched out her jade hand, received a shower of light, and felt the rich stellar energy within it, her beautiful eyes constantly sparkling with starlight.

"The energy required for this breakthrough is immense; it seems this phenomenon won't last long."

She now understood that Xiao Bai was accumulating energy in preparation for his breakthrough to the Dou Zun level.

She had no savings before because the innate source of the Calamity Poison Body was extremely vast, and with the legacy left to her by Youlian, she was able to cross the gap between Dou Zong and Dou Zun in one fell swoop, and even take a few small steps in the Dou Zun realm.

"Ok?"

She suddenly frowned, dissipated the star power in her hand, and looked toward the valley entrance.

His eyes turned slightly cold as he raised his hand and swept it across the void, sending a burst of scorching purple-gray energy piercing through the space.

At the entrance of the valley, several people were cautiously peering into the valley. Since the Ice River Valley disciples escaped from the valley not long ago, the news of the Ice River Valley's destruction instantly caused a great uproar in Zhongzhou.

According to those people, it was a group of black-armored soldiers who slaughtered the core members of the entire Ice Valley. This morning, some people saw the black-armored soldiers leave, which made some people have certain thoughts.

Even if those people search thoroughly, some traces of a power that has been passed down for thousands of years will still be left behind.

Just as the group was about to step into the valley, unable to resist the allure of the strange phenomenon, their expressions suddenly changed, and they hurriedly retreated.

"The line of fire is the boundary; anyone who crosses it dies!"

A clear, ethereal voice rang out, and then, to the astonishment of the group, the space at the valley entrance distorted, followed by a sea of ​​purplish-gray fire that spread out and landed at the valley entrance, leaving a scorching line of fire.

"Dou Zun?!"

All of them were Dou Zong, otherwise they wouldn't have dared to come here. Upon seeing this, they exchanged glances, hurriedly bowed to the valley, and turned to leave without hesitation.

They thought that with Black Armor gone, this place was now unclaimed, but they never expected that there would still be a Dou Zun powerhouse guarding it. They dared not linger any longer.

In the valley, Little Fairy Doctor withdrew her gaze and ignored it. The commotion in the valley was too great, and it was good that these people spread the news to prevent some ignorant people from coming to bother her.

Miao Mu lingered on the ice-blue palace for a moment, her slender figure gradually dissipating into the air. The entire Ice Valley fell silent once more, with only the energy of heaven and earth roaring and gathering, and the power of stars flying like rain.

Time slips away quietly.
While Xiao Bai was oblivious and deep in seclusion, someone in the distant Northwest Continent harbored deep resentment towards him.

Add more to the imperial capital, add more to the holy city.

In the heart of the city, a magnificent and imposing pavilion stands tall, offering a panoramic view of the entire holy city of Gama.

On the top floor of the attic, a huge plaque gleamed brightly; even in the dead of night, the three characters "Shenxiao Alliance" still shone brilliantly.

Today, the Divine Firmament Alliance, in addition to the Jiama Empire and the Tagor Desert, has also annexed the three kingdoms of Chuyun, Yanluo, and Mulan, and with Zixiao City as its frontier, has brought a small part of the Black Corner Region under its control.

Even in the entire Northwest Region, the Divine Firmament Alliance is a newly emerging behemoth of such power.

At this moment, on the top floor of this heavily fortified pavilion, a woman dressed in a bright red brocade robe stood with her hands behind her back by the window, her long, narrow phoenix eyes gazing towards the Central Plains.

The woman had a captivating figure; even her slightly loose robes couldn't conceal her breathtakingly alluring curves.

Bathed in moonlight, her long, flowing black hair swayed gently, her stunningly beautiful face seemingly veiled in a light gauze, and between her delicate, arched eyebrows, a hint of the majesty of someone who had long held a high position was subtly revealed.

She appears both alluring and aloof, a blend of purity and sensuality, which instantly elevates her captivating charm to its peak, making her an unparalleled beauty and enchanting all beings.

It's been three years.

A tingling sound, like an electric current coursing through the body, murmured from the woman's rosy lips.

She gently raised her beautiful eyes, and in the moonlight, she seemed to see the unforgettable black robe reflected in them. The words she had spoken when she left, promising to return in three years, still echoed in her ears.

"Ha, men!"

As she muttered to herself, her jade-like hands clenched tightly, and a hint of resentment flashed in her long, narrow eyes.

"laugh--"

Bright, dazzling, multicolored lightning bolts ripped through the air, and a childish voice suddenly called out from behind:
"A good wife! A good wife!"

Before Cai Lin could turn around, a soft little thing bumped into her arms.

Looking down, she saw a delicate little creature smiling up at her. Its features were exquisite, like a porcelain doll. Its large, dark eyes were clear and bright in the moonlight, yet they were also filled with a lively and mischievous glint.

"Being naughty again!"

Cai Lin's cold and beautiful face softened instantly, her gaze reproachful as she reached out and pinched her daughter's chubby cheeks.

"How many times have I told you, call me 'Mother,' not 'Good Wife'!" She corrected the little guy's pronunciation speechlessly. Who would have thought that this little guy, who was only three months old, could already fly?

I don't know what that bastard added to the pill that was sent back, but the little guy was born with five-colored lightning, which almost made her suffer excruciating pain.

The little guy giggled, his little hands flailing in the air, and a flash of rainbow light appeared on his sleeve.

A tiny, seven-colored python emerged from her sleeve, affectionately nuzzled the little girl's cheek, and then glanced warily at Cai Lin.

"Little thing, are you afraid I'll eat you?"

Cai Lin gave a soft snort, and the seven-colored python immediately shrank its neck.

"eat"

The little guy blinked his big, bright eyes, grabbed the colorful python, and opened his mouth slightly.

He stuffed it into his mouth.

Her little cheeks puffed out.

"fragrant"

"Don't eat it!"

Cai Lin quickly pried open her daughter's mouth and rescued the seven-colored python. The little python nestled pitifully on the little girl's shoulder, no longer daring to move.

The little guy blinked his eyes, then suddenly stretched out his chubby little hand and pointed to the moon outside the window: "Daddy!"

Cai Lin froze and looked in the direction her daughter was pointing.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, but there was no one in sight. A pang of sadness welled up in her heart, and she hugged her daughter even tighter.

"Your father has probably forgotten about us, mother and son, a long time ago."

Cai Lin murmured softly, her voice trembling almost imperceptibly, thinking to herself:
"Xiao Bai, if you dare to abandon us, I will never forgive you!"

Her red lips pursed slightly, and a hint of barely perceptible worry appeared in her eyes. When Yao Tianhuo returned, he said that he had gotten into some trouble.

What kind of trouble would require sending back the only Dou Zun powerhouse by your side?

She was said to be in charge of the Divine Firmament Alliance, but both she and that vixen from the Cloud Mist Sect knew that it was because that guy couldn't let them go.

Seemingly sensing its mother's emotions, the little one gently patted Cai Lin's pretty face with its chubby little hand, then suddenly broke free from her embrace and floated into the air.

The little creature was surrounded by faint five-colored lightning. It spun in the air, and the five-colored lightning danced at its fingertips, gradually condensing into a small ball of lightning.

She excitedly tossed the lightning ball towards Cai Lin, seemingly trying to amuse her, but it was swallowed whole by the seven-colored python halfway through.

"hiss--"

The little python trembled violently from the electric shock, then fell straight to the ground, its slender body shaking continuously, its tongue lolling out.

“.!” Cai Lin.

At that moment, she wondered if evolving into the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python was a mistake.

This daughter's companion monster is a disgrace to the clan!
While Cai Lin and her daughter were interacting affectionately, in another part of Gama Holy City...

Xiao family.

The night was as dark as ink. Inside the Xiao family mansion, a green lamp flickered under the eaves, casting dappled light and shadow.

Deep inside, in a brightly lit room, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood.

A middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged on a futon, his fighting spirit flowing slowly around him like a stream.

This person was Xiao Zhan, the clan leader who was nearly fifty years old and had been cultivating even harder recently.

Since the emergence of Xiao Bai and Xiao Yan, two renowned geniuses, the Xiao family has risen to become the most prominent family in the Jia Ma Empire.

Every day, a constant stream of powerful forces came to visit, but Xiao Zhan knew in his heart that all this glory and awe stemmed from that child.

Since the time Xiao Bai turned fifteen, everything in the Xiao family has changed. Yan'er has regained her confidence, and the family has gradually become more prosperous.

"Sigh, my talent..."

After a moment, Xiao Zhan slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, opened his slightly cloudy eyes, shook his head, and smiled bitterly:

"At most, I'll be a Dou Wang in this life; Dou Huang is probably just a fantasy."

The Xiao family is not short of resources nowadays. Not to mention the exchange within the alliance, just look at the resources left by Xiao Bai and Xiao Yan for the family. As long as one has talent, even a Dou Zong can obtain them, let alone a Dou Huang.

But it's a pity.
After a moment's sigh, his gaze fell upon the portrait hanging on the wall. Xiao Yan's slightly immature face was vividly depicted on the painting, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
"Fortunately, the old man was only a Fighting King back then, but my son is much more successful than his son!"

The sound of patrolling guards' footsteps came from outside the window, the clanging of armor particularly clear in the night.

Xiao Zhan got up and walked to the window. Looking at everything in the Xiao family now, he felt as if it were a dream.

Once upon a time, the Xiao family's greatest wish was to restore the glory that Xiao Lin had enjoyed during his lifetime. Now, the Xiao family has not only restored it, but has surpassed even the glory that the old man had when he was alive.

Just as Xiao Zhan was feeling sentimental, a sudden, inexplicable dizziness struck him.

Xiao Zhan's fingers tightened suddenly as he gripped the window frame, causing the wooden frame to groan under his Dou Wang-level strength.

The scene before me was like a turbulent body of water, with all the outlines beginning to distort and deform.

He tried to call for help, but found that his throat was being choked by an invisible hand, and he couldn't even utter the simplest syllables.

When his vision cleared again, Xiao Zhan was horrified to find himself standing in a vast, gray space.

There were no sun, moon, or stars in the world, only countless suspended transparent prisms, each prism flashing with fragmented images—Xiao Yan's unrestrained smile at his coming-of-age ceremony, Xiao Bai's figure standing amidst thunder, and even the scene of Xun'er leaving the Xiao family.

"This is."

In a daze, Xiao Zhan instinctively circulated his fighting spirit, only to find that his body was completely empty.

Even more terrifying, he felt his consciousness becoming blurred, as if someone was scraping away his memories bit by bit with a blunt knife.

The image of his wife on her deathbed, the joy of Xiao Yan's first mastery of Dou Qi—these cherished memories are fading irreversibly.

He wanted to run, but his legs felt rooted to the ground.

I wanted to shout, but my vocal cords seemed to be frozen.

In his last moments before losing consciousness, Xiao Zhan saw all the prisms suddenly turn towards him, and the strange yet familiar images in the mirrors rushed towards him like a torrent.
"Chieftain? Are you alright?"

The urgent calls startled Xiao Zhan awake. He opened his eyes abruptly.

The first rays of dawn appeared outside the window; it was already the next morning.

"fine."

Xiao Zhan stood up and responded hoarsely. His voice startled even himself, as if he hadn't spoken for years. His voice was dry and rough, like glass rubbing together.

After the guards' footsteps faded into the distance, Xiao Zhan trembled as he activated his inner vision, but found nothing amiss.

"Is it an illusion?"
