People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 137 Mountain-Opening Seal, Sea-Turning Seal!

Facing a half-step Dou Zong and two nine-star Dou Huang, Chen Xiao's original intention was simply to stall them.

Then, they waited for Mo Tianxing and the others in the shadows to finally appear and join the battle, so they could seize the opportunity to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

Unfortunately, Fang Yan's suggestion that the Third Elder launch a surprise attack on Little Fairy Doctor disrupted Chen Xiao's plans.

Although Little Fairy Doctor relied on her Calamity Poison Body to make Yan avoid her at all costs, that was because they were both three-star Dou Huangs and there was no difference in their cultivation levels.

On the other hand, this Third Elder of Demon Flame Valley is a genuine Nine-Star Dou Huang!
If it were to target Little Fairy Doctor, she might be able to handle it, but she would have to exert all her strength to activate her poisonous body. In that case, the risk of Little Fairy Doctor's calamity poisonous body going out of control prematurely would increase dramatically.

This was not the situation Chen Xiao wanted to see, so he had no choice but to change his strategy, abandon the defensive posture, and get down to business.

"Earth-rank combat skill!"

A giant, frost-colored palm, carrying a chilling pressure, crashed down from the sky. The Third Elder's pupils shrank, and his fighting spirit surged violently like boiling magma. His ten fingers flew across the ground, and intricate hand seals changed one after another.

Although Earth-rank combat skills are already top-tier in the Northwest Continent, given their status and experience, it's not too surprising.

After all, looking at the top experts on the Black List, apart from a few prodigies, almost everyone possesses at least one Earth-rank combat skill, which they use as a trump card to defeat their enemies.

"Let me show you the Flame Manipulation Technique of my Demon Flame Valley!"

The Third Elder shouted sharply, his fingertips flashing like butterfly wings. Before he finished speaking, Fang Yan and the Second Elder had already rushed forward.

In the Black Corner Region, a land where the strong prey on the weak, the iron law of the victor has long since crushed the empty reputation of 'the many defeat the few'.

Here, we don't talk about martial ethics, nor do we care about the process; we only care about the result!

The three exchanged glances, their tacit understanding as sharp as poisoned blades, and simultaneously roared, their figures flying backward like arrows released from a bow.

In an instant, dozens of hand seals were unleashed in succession like a torrential rain. Accompanied by the explosive energy that made bones crack, three clusters of pale gray flames burst forth from their hearts, like three lurking gray pythons, intertwining and hissing in the void.

The moment the gray flames surged, the air emitted a piercing shriek, and finally converged in the center of the three!

When the three flames completely merged, a strange flame with dark brown patterns shot into the sky, like a giant beast with bared fangs. The temperature within a hundred meters rose rapidly at a visible speed. The trees in the distance instantly dehydrated and carbonized, and even the space itself rippled under the scorching heat of the flames, like a mirror being crumpled by an invisible hand.

The billowing, rising gray-brown flames scorched the surrounding space, their terrifying power enough to crush most beast fire.

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly. As someone who had come into contact with strange flames many times and was well-versed in their characteristics, he could see the clues at a glance.
This seemingly domineering flame, though carrying the power to burn the heavens and boil the seas, always lacked the destructive aura of a strange fire that could turn all things into nothingness, as if it were an empty shell without a soul.

The two are ultimately not in the same league!
A grayish-brown flame hovered above the heads of the three people, resembling a gray sun, constantly emitting a terrifyingly high temperature that distorted the very space around it.

The three of them simultaneously curled their lips into a cold smile, and with a wave of their hands, the ball of flame instantly split into three, like three streaks of fire that shot into their bodies.

In an instant, the aura of the three surged, and a violent heat wave, accompanied by a scorching wind, rushed towards Chen Xiao like a raging tsunami.

Almost simultaneously, the three of them suddenly raised their hands and pointed, and three gray flames shot out like nimble chains, heading straight for the terrifying frost-colored giant hand.

Strangely, once these fire chains came into contact with the Heavenly Frost Palm, they spread wildly along the palm's momentum like a malignant tumor, wrapping around the giant palm layer by layer in the blink of an eye. No matter how much force it carried, it could no longer fall even an inch.

The methods of this veteran powerhouse from the Black Corner Region are evident!
"burst!"

Seeing his offensive stalled, Chen Xiao let out a soft sigh.

In an instant, the frost-colored giant hand exploded, unleashing a violent surge of energy like a tsunami, transforming into a howling energy storm. Wherever it passed, the carefully woven fire chains of the three crumbled inch by inch. The frigid air and the scorching heat collided violently, and a terrifying shockwave of intertwined cold and heat surged forth, seemingly threatening to devour everything around them. The violent roar was like a thunderclap, and Zi Yan and the others looked in the direction of the sound, only to see the surging aftershocks of energy permeating the heavens and earth.

Chen Xiao and the three elders of Demon Flame Valley shot off like arrows, each leaping thousands of feet backward, their robes fluttering in the shockwave. They evaded the terrifying shockwave, powerful enough to tear space apart, with incredible speed, leaving behind several afterimages swaying in mid-air.

"Don't get distracted! Take care of your opponents first!"

Chen Xiao let out a deep shout, and his fighting spirit surged suddenly.

Before he finished speaking, lightning flashed beneath his feet, and his figure transformed into a phantom, standing between the three elders of Demon Flame Valley and Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan, cutting off any chance that the third elders might try to ambush Little Fairy Doctor.

Fang Yan instantly saw through Chen Xiao's intentions, a bloodthirsty smile curling at the corner of his lips, his eyes surging with murderous intent: "You're courting death! Then I'll send you to the Yellow Springs first!"

He glanced at the red-robed Yan, who was locked in a fierce battle not far away. Even at his peak, Yan was no match for Xiao Yixian. Now, severely injured, he was in an even more difficult situation and was on the verge of death. It wouldn't be long before Xiao Yixian was able to extricate herself.

This caused Fang Yan to lose patience with Chen Xiao. He exchanged glances with the Second and Third Elders beside him, and the three of them suddenly surged with fighting spirit, like three ferocious beasts ready to pounce, determined to kill Chen Xiao under this fierce combined attack.

In an instant, the three people's hand seals fluttered like butterflies, and the surging gray-brown flames within their bodies erupted like a flood bursting its banks.

Flames intertwined in mid-air. When Fang Yan poured all the Transformation Fire he had cultivated throughout his life into it, the entire world suddenly trembled violently. The violent energy of heaven and earth gathered like a vortex, and the thick gray-brown fire cloud surged endlessly, as if a giant beast was lurking within it.

"Starry Sky Fire Phoenix!"

"Wow!"

With a loud shout in the dialect, a sharp bird cry tore through the sky, carrying a scorching wind that could burn everything. The surging gray-brown fire cloud fluctuated violently, and a giant firebird, several dozen feet long, slowly took shape!

As it spread its wings, ripples spread through the space. Its eyes were like two flickering ghostly flames, and its entire body exuded a chilling aura of destruction.

Clearly, the three from Demon Flame Valley have unleashed their ultimate weapon this time, determined to completely annihilate Chen Xiao!

Feeling the overwhelming heat and the oppressive force that could tear the void apart, Chen Xiao's expression also turned serious.

He took a deep breath, a chill suddenly rising around him. He stomped his foot, and the hand seals on his palms changed like lightning. The speed at which he formed the seals was dazzling. His fighting spirit surged into his palms like a raging sea.

In an instant, an icy blue handprint radiating bone-chilling cold materialized before him, its flowing lines seemingly containing the power to create the world. "Mountain-Splitting Seal!"

With a roar, an icy blue handprint, carrying immense force, burst forth from the sky.

With the force of mountains and the power of the universe, one palm can open the heavens, split the earth and shatter mountains, this is the Mountain-Opening Seal!

This ancient clan secret technique, given to him by Xun'er, was something Chen Xiao had always kept hidden as a trump card. Now, facing the all-out killing move of the three from Demon Flame Valley, he dared not hold back any longer. His aura surged like a raging tide, determined to shatter the enemy's offensive with this earth-shattering palm strike!
As the seal solidified, Chen Xiao did not pause for a moment.

His fingertips moved rapidly, forming hand seals as he chanted incantations, his fighting spirit surging wildly.

In an instant, the world changed color, and countless energies of heaven and earth surged and converged like rivers flowing into the sea. The air within a radius of dozens of miles emitted a piercing shriek. This commotion not only caused the expressions of everyone present to change drastically, but even many powerful figures hidden in the shadows couldn't help but gasp and their pupils contracted violently.

Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, the void in front of Chen Xiao suddenly distorted, and a giant palm print, twenty or thirty feet in size, slowly condensed.

The palm print shimmered with a deep blue-icy hue, its surging energy like a raging torrent, seemingly compressing the power of an entire ocean within it.

It gathers the might of a hundred rivers, transforms the power of raging waves, and with a single palm strike, it overturns the sea and reverses the heavens!

This seal is for—

"Turn the sea seal!"

Chen Xiao roared, his voice like thunder.

As the shout subsided, the Sea-Turning Seal was fully formed!

The majestic mountain-like power of the Mountain-Opening Seal and the vast, raging power of the Sea-Turning Seal merged together. Once unleashed, the terrifying combined power of the two seals caused the space they passed through to begin to crack. With a power as powerful as the creation of heaven and earth, they ruthlessly blasted towards the Void Fire Phoenix!
"boom!"

The moment the Fire Phoenix collided with the Twin Seals, the world seemed to be paused. First, there was a faint "crack," like the first crack appearing on the surface of space. Then, a thunderous roar erupted as the gray-brown flames and the ice-blue Twin Seals violently clashed, bursting out with blinding light.

The sharp cry of the fire phoenix mingled with the shrieking of tearing energy, and countless birds and beasts in the continuous mountain range were instantly shaken by the sound waves, causing them to bleed from their seven orifices.

Chen Xiao gasped for breath, stuffed a handful of Qingyuan Pills into his mouth, and swallowed them whole to replenish his enormous energy expenditure.

On the other hand, the three people from Demon Flame Valley opposite them all had faces as red as blood, and blood was seeping from their mouths and noses!

Although the Starry Sky Fire Phoenix was powerful, it began to crumble under the combined pressure of the two seals. The flames on its wings flickered like candlelight in a gale.

Fang Yan roared and frantically poured in his battle qi, spitting out a mouthful of blood essence that fell into the Fire Phoenix's body, allowing it to barely stabilize its body. Its sharp claws tore open a corner of the Mountain-Splitting Seal, and the flying energy fragments fell like meteorites, smashing into the ground and creating a bottomless crater.

However, at this moment, the Overturning Sea Seal surged forward like a rising tide, crashing into the Fire Phoenix with overwhelming force.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The energy storm exploded like a nuclear bomb, with a mushroom cloud-shaped shockwave shooting straight into the sky, tearing a huge, dark rift in the heavens. The destructive aftershocks, indescribable in words, spread out like a tsunami in an instant.

Chen Xiao grunted, lightning flashed beneath his feet, and he flew backward at breakneck speed, his face turning pale. Fang Yan and the other two were also like kites with broken strings, thrown back more than a thousand feet by the aftershock of the destruction before they could finally steady themselves. Each of them had an extremely pale face.

The Starry Sky Fire Phoenix had gathered all their transformed flames, and their minds were connected. Now that it had been broken, all three of them suffered severe injuries!

At this moment, the entire world fell into a brief silence. Even Zi Yan and Xiao Yi Xian, who were fighting in the distance, looked over with pale faces. Only the Heavenly Demon Puppet ignored everything and continued to relentlessly pursue the Old Man of Eagle Mountain, making it impossible for him to pay attention to the other side of the battlefield.

Where the Twin Seals clashed with the Void Fire Phoenix, the scattered gray embers and distorted space silently testified to the ferocity of the battle.

Below, nestled among the mountains, under the shade of a tree.

Mo Tianxing witnessed the energy storm, a mix of ice and fire, tearing through the sky, and his pupils contracted violently.

The terrifying aftershocks, powerful enough to tear space apart, clearly reached the power of a Dou Zong expert unleashing their full strength!

If one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that this was actually caused by a Dou Huang.

After his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily twice, Mo Tianxing suddenly broke into a sinister grin, his eyes gleaming with a greedy light that seemed to ignite his pupils.

This earth-shattering duel, which seemed to result in mutual destruction, actually presented him with a golden opportunity.

Chen Xiao and the three from Demon Flame Valley must be exhausted and wounded at this moment, making it the perfect time to reap the benefits!
Once greed took hold, Mo Tianxing waved his hand and strode out with Mo Ya and the other two Dou Huangs behind him.

"You've all worked hard. Now, it's my turn to clean up this mess!"

The low, sinister words echoed in the air. Mo Tianxing flicked his wrist, and a streak of fighting spirit shot out like a black lightning bolt, heading straight for Chen Xiao's face.

At the same time, Mo Ya, Qi Lao, and Che Cheng also took to the air, forming a pincer movement with Mo Tianxing, trapping Chen Xiao firmly in the center.

Mo Tianxing's fighting spirit shot towards him like a venomous snake spitting its tongue. Chen Xiao looked at the fierce attack, but instead, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

His hands, hanging by his sides, remained motionless, his robes swaying gently in the strong wind, making him appear as if he were truly at the end of his rope, powerless to fight back.

However, when the stray horse was only about ten feet away from him, a bewitching figure suddenly appeared, accompanied by a refreshing fragrance. At the same time, a terrifying pressure at the Dou Zong level spread out like a tide.

Queen Medusa's eerie and cold gaze, filled with murderous intent, fixed on Mo Tianxing as he ascended into the air. The golden ornaments on her head gleamed with an eerie light as she extinguished the stream of fighting spirit with a single palm strike.

"Who gave you permission to touch him!"
