Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 548 What is the correct way to use the Fire Lotus?

Tianxing Mountain Range, outside Xingyun Pavilion.

A bolt of lightning, its entire body covered in thunder, pierced through the void in an instant, disappearing into the distance at a speed beyond the perception of the soul.

This was Xiao Yan's fastest speed in his life. He frantically stomped his feet on the space to gain momentum, and violent arcs of lightning roared and resounded. With each step, a bottomless spatial depression was created.

"Huchi. Huchi"

Xiao Yan wanted to say something, but his throat was burning hot, and all that remained of his voice was a hoarse wheeze.

He could only use his soul power to transmit his voice: "Ruo Ruo, has he caught up yet?"

"I don't know." Hun Ruoruo barely opened her eyes and stared behind her: "Most of my soul power was sealed by the Soul Treasure, and it has not been unlocked yet, so I can't catch any trace of him."

As a venerable elder of the Soul Palace, Venerable Qinghai's soul strength is beyond doubt. In addition, with the 'Golden Crow' as an aid, as long as he wants to conceal his figure, ordinary people will find it absolutely difficult to detect him.

Although Hun Ruoruo's soul power far surpassed that of her opponent, she was severely injured at the moment. In addition, Xiao Yan was holding the Fire Lotus, so he could not conceal his figure with his disguise fighting technique. The enemy was in the open while she was in the dark, so why would the opponent show himself rashly?
"Not good!" Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, his face flushed, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. His aura also weakened instantly.

"The Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Bodies were destroyed so quickly?!"

The purpose of releasing the three thousand Thunder Illusion bodies as bait was to make Venerable Qinghai hesitate and ultimately force him to choose to hunt down the two of them.

Even though he was mentally prepared, the decisiveness and ruthlessness of the other party's attack still made Xiao Yan feel a chill in his heart like never before.

Upon realizing that the figure of the Venerable Qinghai had not yet appeared, Xiao Yan's expression changed drastically, and he shouted urgently, "Ruo Ruo, protect me!"

Hun Ruoruo bit her tongue, forced herself to sit up, and leaned on Xiao Yan's shoulder. With a wave of her hand, a huge water wall, several dozen feet thick, appeared behind the two of them. Just then, a deep black light flashed in the originally quiet space.

"Whoosh!"

The black light tore through the void, bringing with it countless fragments of shattered space, and pierced through the water shield with almost no resistance, firmly nailing it into Xiao Yan's spine like a steel nail!
In an instant, a crisp sound of bones cracking rang out, only to be drowned out by the sweeping storm. Propelled by immense force, the two figures were like small boats caught in a raging wave, instantly overturned and thrown a thousand feet away.

"Ugh!"

A sharp pain, enough to make one faint, struck. Xiao Yan gasped for breath, his steel teeth almost shattering as he forced himself to remain silent.

Hearing the barely suppressed moans, Hun Ruoruo struggled to get up and looked behind him. Her pretty face immediately turned pale, and she became unsteady on her feet.

"Xiao Xiaoyan!"

"I'm fine!" Xiao Yan roared. "Let's go!!"

He didn't check his injuries, nor did he even intend to remove the foreign object from his body. The other party's attack was too cunning and ruthless. Once the foreign object was removed, the bleeding would only increase, and the area below his spine would become increasingly uncontrollable.

After saying that, Xiao Yan ignored the warning from his body, picked up the girl, and ran wildly away into the distance again.

At this point, the farther they run, the greater their chances of winning!

Knowing that she was running out of strength, Hun Ruoruo did not resist anymore. Instead, she quickly took out a large number of high-grade Qi-restoring pills and stuffed them into her mouth. Then she forcibly activated her pure water battle qi to repair Xiao Yan's collapsing body.

In a short time, from collapse to repair, and then from repair to collapse again, Xiao Yan's physical body actually maintained a balance in a state that was beyond the norm!

"Oh?"

Seeing that Xiao Yan and his companion still had the strength to escape, Venerable Qinghai finally stopped hiding and slowly revealed his true form from the void. Forcibly interrupting the 'Golden Crow' earlier had also caused him considerable damage and depletion, and in terms of the durability of his battle qi, his cultivation technique was only at the mid-level of the Earth Rank, so he obviously could not compare with Xiao Yan and his companion.

"Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique"

The Qinghai Venerable's eyes flickered, his face, filled with demonic energy, was completely covered by greed:

"These mere remnants of the Sound Valley possess so many trump cards and methods! I've changed my mind. Not only your lives, but every single memory of your souls—I want them all!"

The Heavenly Rank has always been the ultimate goal pursued by countless cultivators since ancient times, and among the Heavenly Rank, the most powerful and rarest techniques have always been the cultivation methods.

It should be noted that even Heaven-rank combat skills are limited by the amount of battle qi, but Heaven-rank cultivation techniques are a cheat code that allows cultivators to advance rapidly from the Battle Master stage!
Once you possess a Heaven-rank cultivation technique, your battle qi and cultivation speed will far surpass those of other cultivators at the same level by dozens of times!
"You little bastard, there's never been anything my Soul Palace can't get!"

He stepped into the void, shrinking the distance to an inch, and went straight for Xiao Yan's crown!

As the palm drew ever closer, the madness in Xiao Yan's eyes intensified, and the various strange flames within his body finally erupted without restraint.

"Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire"

Only now did Xiao Yan finally reveal a corner of his long-hidden trump card.

Since he obtained the complete Heavenly Fire Three Transformations, it has only been a week at most. Even with his extraordinary comprehension, it is impossible for him to comprehend the three transformations instantly.

However, even two layers would be more than enough to bring about a qualitative leap in Xiao Yan's strength!

"Phantom Transformation!!!"

The angry roar was like a rolling thunderclap, and crackling black and gold sparks began to flash on Xiao Yan's skin like lightning. The raging evil flames swept wildly, vaguely revealing a strange shape that resembled both a lion and a dragon.

The next instant, Xiao Yan, who had nowhere to retreat, suddenly released the girl's delicate body, holding a lotus in one hand and gathering earth-shattering blood and qi power in the other, instantly meeting the Qinghai Venerable's large hand.

"Old Dog" Xiao Yan's eyes were violent, his breath was like mist, and his eyes were bloodshot, like an awakened young demon god, ferocious and terrifying.

"After chasing me all this way, shouldn't I get some interest by now?"

After saying that, Xiao Yan transformed into a blood mist and instantly collided with the black mist condensed by the Azure Sea Venerable!
"What?!"

A deafening explosion rang out, and Venerable Qinghai's heart clenched for a moment.

Under the probing of his soul power, the youth in front of him had no human aura at all, as if he were a dragon corpse sealed with endless blood and qi. Any defense would become insignificant under its attack.

"This is..." Venerable Qinghai's voice trembled, not from fear, but from a spasm and shudder originating from the depths of his soul, "A forbidden body-refining technique! You actually learned a forbidden body-refining technique?!"

No one, absolutely no one, can withstand a body-refining sorcerer's close-quarters combat head-on. Even if his cultivation level is now a whole realm higher than his opponent's, it is absolutely impossible for him to do so. This is an ironclad law in the cultivation world!

"Ho ho."

Xiao Yan grinned, but the smile on his lips was so menacing it resembled that of a vengeful ghost.

He transformed his palm into a claw, firmly clamping down on the Qinghai Venerable's hand. Then, in the other's pupils, which had shrunk to pinpoints, he suddenly grabbed the nascent fire lotus in his hand and slapped it onto the other's face!

"burst!!!"
