People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 301 A Dou Sheng powerhouse, terrifying indeed!
There's no point in wasting words on someone you don't get along with. Whether it was due to Chen Xiao's influence or her status as a disciple of Xuan Kongzi, Cao Ying had no good impression of the Soul Palace and was too lazy to waste her breath on it.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Cao Ying remained calm and showed no sign of panic. She gently clasped her hands together and then quickly formed a series of strange hand seals.

As the hand seals changed, the temperature around the body suddenly rose!
The Fire Wheel Fire-Controlling Technique is less of a combat skill and more of a fire control technique.

This technique is based on the shapes of the beasts: wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and dragon. Each level has its own fire spirit. When the technique is mastered, the five beasts gather together to form the Five-Round Fire Array, which has the immense power to scorch the sea and burn the sky.

Most importantly, if four of the five elements are formed from different flames, the power of this technique will be comparable to a Heaven-rank combat skill!

Cao Ying now possesses a total of five different types of strange flames!

The Five Wheels of Fire Technique, when unleashed by her, is even more terrifying than that of the creator, the Heavenly Fire Venerable!
"Wolf Spirit, Condense!"

As Cao Ying uttered her cold shout, her hand seal suddenly froze. With a clench of her jade hand, a deep yellow flame slowly rose from her palm.

This deep yellow flame is the Xuanhuang Flame, which ranks last on the list of strange flames.

Although it ranks last, it is still a genuine different kind of fire!
A deep yellow flame emerged, then suddenly expanded, wriggled strangely, and instantly transformed into a deep yellow fire wolf tens of feet in size.

"Leopard Spirit, Condense!"

Having condensed the spirit of the fire wolf, Cao Ying changed her hand seals again, as if a pool of blood had been spilled across the sky, and a blood-red, eerie flame suddenly roared out from her body.

This fire is none other than the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, ranked twenty-second on the Strange Fire List!

Amidst the astonishment of Mu Gu and the others, Cao Ying's hand seals did not stop for a moment. Cyan, dark blue, and finally, a flame the color of a burning cloud, all slowly surged out from her palms!

"Qinglian Earth Heart Fire!"

"Sea Heart Flame!"

"Fire Cloud Water Flame!"

Watching the various colored flames transform in Cao Ying's hands, quickly condensing into five fire spirits, everyone present was stunned, filled with envy and jealousy.

Those who can come to this world of alchemy all possess the identity of an alchemist. As alchemists, their desire for exotic flames is much stronger than that of ordinary fire-attribute individuals.

However, for ordinary alchemists, being able to control even one type of strange fire is already extremely fortunate. Even Xiao Yan, with his special circumstances, only has three types of strange fire at present.

But Cao Ying in front of me has mastered five of them!

"Five-wheeled fire disc, rise!"

As the five fire spirits coalesced, the temperature of this world suddenly soared, causing the lush forests in the distance to turn yellow at a visible speed.

The space around the basin was violently distorted, and the originally quiet energy of heaven and earth suddenly began to surge violently, as if it had been drawn by some force.

As Cao Ying's shout fell, the five fire spirits in front of her shot out with a 'whoosh', forming a five-pointed star that enveloped the entire area within a ten-thousand-meter radius!

"Roar!"

A deep roar came from the mouths of the five fire spirits, and then five pillars of fire of completely different colors shot out from their mouths, shooting straight into each other's bodies, forming a perfect five-pointed light shape!

Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
As the pillars of fire entered their bodies, the five fire spirits' bodies erupted with a dazzling light. Beams of light shot out from within the fire spirits, then intersected and connected, transforming into rays of light that outlined mysterious array patterns.
From the moment Cao Ying formed the hand seals and summoned the Xuanhuang Flame to the completion of the great array, only a few breaths had passed. An extremely intricate and complex light array had already been deployed!

"We can't delay any longer, kill her!"

Enveloped by the Five-Wheel Fire Disc, Elder Mugu felt a tremendous threat. Startled, he dared not hesitate any longer and gave the order in a deep voice.

Upon hearing Elder Mu Gu's words, the black-robed experts from the other two directions nodded slightly and attacked Cao Ying from the left and right respectively.

"You're courting death! May your flames engulf the heavens!"

Seeing the two Dou Zun experts approaching, Cao Ying sneered and her hand seals suddenly changed again. As her hand seals changed, violent fluctuations suddenly appeared in the great formation. Then, streams of brilliant flames interwoven with five colors surged out continuously, turning into a raging sea of ​​fire. With an unparalleled force, it instantly engulfed the two attackers!

quiet!
Deathly silence!

No one expected that two three-star Dou Zun would be killed instantly without any resistance when they attacked a one-star Dou Zun, leaving no trace of their bodies.

If you didn't witness it with your own eyes, no one would believe it if you told them.

Just as the old man Mu Gu was about to charge forward to assist his two teammates, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, retreating thousands of meters in one step. He stared at Cao Ying, who was full of disdain, with a look of horror on his face.

"How is this possible! You're just a one-star Dou Zun, how could you possibly use such a Heaven-rank Dou Technique!"

With the blessing of five different flames, the Five-Wheel Fire Technique in Cao Ying's hands has already acquired the power of a Heaven-Rank Battle Technique.

However, as everyone knows, the consumption of using a Heaven-rank combat skill is no small matter!

What he didn't know was that the Five-Wheel Fire Technique was fundamentally different from the traditional Heavenly Rank combat techniques.

and…

"Who told you I only have the strength of a one-star Dou Zun?"

Cao Ying chuckled, her aura surging, revealing the full power of a three-star Dou Zun in the early stage.

Her true level was indeed only one-star Dou Zun.

However, he had already secretly taken the Dou Zun Pill when he appeared, which allowed him to exert the strength of a three-star Dou Zun in a short period of time.

If an alchemist fights without using potions, is he still a legitimate alchemist?

In front of Elder Mu Gu, Cao Ying took out a handful of Qi-instant pills and swallowed them, further boosting her aura.

To her now, this seventh-grade pill is no different from a sugar pill.

The arrogance of an eighth-grade alchemist can never be truly appreciated until one reaches that level.

"Alright, it's your turn to hit the road."

Without wasting any more words with Elder Mu Gu, Cao Yingyu pointed her hand, and the dazzling flames interwoven with five colors surged up again, like a savage beast, engulfing Elder Mu Gu.

Elder Mu Gu was terrified. He had no intention of confronting him head-on. As he retreated, a spatial jade slip quietly appeared in his hand.

Seeing Elder Mu Gu fleeing in panic, the group of alchemists couldn't help but recall what Cao Ying had said before entering the Pill Realm.

If this is considered being bad at killing, then aren't all these people just playing house?
Little did they know, Cao Ying was not lying.

However, she was always comparing herself to the other people around Chen Xiao.

Among all the women, she was indeed the least skilled at fighting, and she had only fought a handful of times.

Take what just happened as an example. After taking the Dou Zun Pill, her cultivation level was almost the same as the three people opposite her. With her superior abilities, if it were Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin, they would not need to use a powerful move like the Five-Wheel Fire Technique to easily deal with her.

But Cao Ying is different. She has slightly less practical experience and focuses on overwhelming the enemy!

For this reason as well, Chen Xiao gave her the most Ice Soul Talismans for protection.

Of the nine Ice Soul Talismans, more than half were on Cao Ying.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the figure of Elder Mu Gu was caught up by the five-colored flames and completely engulfed within them.

Everyone assumed that Elder Mugu would also vanish into thin air like the two black-robed figures from before.

However, Cao Ying, who was controlling the flames, frowned slightly, keenly sensing the abnormality.

But soon, her brows relaxed.

It's just a minor incident, nothing to mention.

Under the watchful eyes of all the alchemists, the sea of ​​fire suddenly turned back, as if it had been bounced back by a terrifying force.

As the direction of the sea of ​​fire changed, Elder Mu Gu's figure reappeared in everyone's sight.

However, behind him was a dark spatial passage, which was extremely conspicuous.

"Cough cough, as expected of the woman of the Purple Cloud Pavilion Master, she really has many trump cards!" A hoarse voice that kept coughing suddenly rang out, followed by a pale and withered hand reaching out from the spatial passage, tearing the spatial passage wider as if it were prying open a door.

The next moment, an old man dressed in gray and white clothes slowly stepped out of the crack and appeared before everyone's eyes.

The old man was hunched over, leaning on a skull cane. His eyes were sunken, with two eerie green lights flickering in them. Looking at him, a sinister and eerie feeling immediately washed over you.

The old man's sinister gaze locked onto Cao Ying, his smile utterly chilling.

"Unfortunately, no matter how many cards you have up your sleeve, you are destined to die today!"

powerful!
Very strong!
Even though Cao Ying had already advanced to the Dou Zun realm and possessed extremely powerful soul strength, she still found it difficult to see through the old man in the slightest.

This person gave her a feeling that was even more terrifying than the three giants of the Dan Tower!
However, Cao Ying was not afraid.

With a gentle wave of her jade hand, the five-colored sea of ​​fire quickly receded, and the five-wheeled fire discs also dissipated. Looking at the old man who seemed to have victory in his grasp, Cao Ying crossed her arms and remained calm.

"Old man, you dare to force your way into the Pill Realm? Aren't you afraid you won't come back alive?"

Upon hearing this, the old man chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Heh, you're referring to the Purple Cloud Pavilion Master in the plaza outside, aren't you? I admit, he is indeed very strong, but unfortunately, my Soul Palace has been planning this for a long time, and there are powerful figures watching him. Saint Pill City and the Three Thousand Burning Flames are our palace's targets this time. As for you..."

"Actually, these are just appetizers. Their only purpose is to make the Pill Tower and the Purple Cloud Pavilion Master live in regret from now on!"

"But don't worry, it won't be long before they come to reunite with you!"

As he spoke, the old man glanced at Dan Chen, Xiao Yan, and the others below, his eyes full of mockery.

If all the alchemists gathered here were wiped out, the younger generation of the Pill Tower would likely face a long period of talent shortage.

Seeing the old man's confident and fearless demeanor, Xiao Yan and the others looked extremely grim. However, they were powerless to do anything, even if they wanted to.

Cao Ying wasn't nervous at all, but she didn't want to listen to the old man continue rambling.

With a slight shake of her head, Cao Yingyu flipped her hand, and an ice-blue talisman with strange patterns immediately appeared in her palm.

"You self-righteous old fool, my husband started practicing Qi at the age of four and advanced to the Dou Sheng realm at the age of twenty-four. How could your Soul Palace possibly see through that?"

Cao Ying chuckled and crushed the talisman in her hand without hesitation.

In an instant, an extremely cold aura swept out, causing the Wanyao Mountain Range, which was under high temperature just a moment ago, to change dramatically. Frost covered the majestic mountain range at a visible speed, and in an instant, thick ice crystals formed.

Everyone stared in astonishment at the scene, and when they turned their gazes to it, they were even more surprised.

Beside Cao Ying, in the previously empty space, stood a tall and handsome young man. No one saw when he appeared; it was as if he had appeared out of thin air.

Chen Xiao paid no attention to the surprised and suspicious looks of the group of alchemists, nor did he glance at the old man opposite him who was completely frozen in mid-air and seemed to be a Bone Nether Saint. At this moment, he was carefully experiencing the avatar formed by the Ice Soul Talisman.

He had perfected his cultivation technique to the Heavenly Rank several years ago, but this was the first time he had used this external avatar.

After carefully sensing it, it was indeed as described in the technique description. Even though only a trace of his will was contained within it, under the protection of sufficient energy, Chen Xiao did not feel any sense of impending dissipation.

In other words, as long as the energy of this avatar is not exhausted, it can continue indefinitely.

However, there are two issues to be aware of regarding this incarnation.

Firstly, one cannot absorb the energy of heaven and earth to repair oneself; energy only goes out and does not come in. Under such circumstances, even if one does not use one's strength, it will eventually dissipate.

Secondly, this avatar can only exert about 60% of the original body's strength.

Of course, even with only 60% of its strength, it is already extremely powerful and can be considered a Heaven-rank secret technique.

After all, even the three thousand Thunder Illusion Bodies of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion could no longer be used once they reached the Dou Sheng level.

This comparison makes it clearer that this incarnation technique, even taken out of context, surpasses the Three Thousand Thunder Illusions.

"Palace Master Zixiao, what are you doing here? The Palace Master and the others clearly..."

After a long silence, the old man finally came to his senses and looked at Chen Xiao with disbelief.

With his strength, he couldn't tell at all that the avatar with 60% of its power was any different from Chen Xiao's original body. He thought that something had happened in the outside world, which was why Chen Xiao was able to come in person.

Upon realizing this, the old man dared not continue speaking, for every second he delayed diminished his chances of escaping.

Immediately, the old man grabbed Mu Gu Elder and, without hesitation, dashed towards the spatial passage behind him.

Only then did Chen Xiao look up and calmly glance at the two of them.

Did I say you could leave?

With a thought, Chen Xiao caused a sudden surge of cold air in the space, transforming into a visible white cold current that swept towards the two of them, arriving in an instant.

Click!Click!
A freezing sound followed, and everyone who heard it looked over and gasped in shock.

Before the spatial passage, time and space seemed to be completely frozen. Two figures were frozen in ice layers tens of feet thick. The expressions of terror on their faces were lifelike, but they had already lost all vitality!
'Freeze battle aura, from the inside out…'

Seeing this scene, only a very few knowledgeable alchemists were able to roughly deduce the reason for the two's demise, and they couldn't help but feel a chill.

One was a peak three-star Dou Zun, and the other was even more unfathomable, a powerful figure who was very likely to reach the level of a half-saint. They were like ants, without any power to resist.

Recalling Cao Ying's words of honor, the group of alchemists were deeply moved.

A Dou Sheng level expert is terrifyingly powerful!
Chen Xiao ignored what these people were thinking, raised his hand and wiped, and the spatial passage in the distance immediately collapsed. After being broken and reassembled, it was no different from the surrounding space.

Immediately, Chen Xiao flicked his finger, and the huge ice spirit that was floating in mid-air began to shatter. After the two storage rings flew out, only about a foot of ice remained, still freezing the two corpses.

Cao Ying immediately understood Chen Xiao's plan. With a wave of her hand, she put it into the storage ring specifically for storing 'dirty things'.

The bodies of a three-star Dou Zun and a half-saint are excellent materials for crafting puppets.

Chen Xiao handed her the two storage rings he was holding, glanced at the crowd below, and said loudly, "The remnants of the Soul Palace want to disrupt the Pill Gathering. I and the three giants also want to take this opportunity to completely eliminate them. You don't need to worry. These are just minor incidents. At the Pill Gathering, you are the main characters!"

After offering a few words of reassurance, Chen Xiao said nothing more, pulled Cao Ying along, and disappeared from the spot.

Dozens of miles away from this basin, Cao Xiu, Cao Dan, and others were waiting for Cao Ying to return.

Suddenly, space distorted, and the group of people only saw a piece of clothing fall out of thin air. Before they could react, they were neatly 'packed up and taken away'.

The world spun around them, and when they finally stood on solid ground again, they were shocked to find themselves in a stone palace.

The interior of this stone hall is extremely spacious, like a huge plaza.

What is most impressive is that countless rare medicinal herbs are piled up like small mountains in this square.

These things are extremely rare in the outside world, but here they are piled up casually like cabbages. The strong, almost sticky medicinal aroma made the group of people dizzy and wonder if they were dreaming.
At the front of the crowd, Chen Xiao glanced at the big guy who appeared at the edge of the square and then froze completely.

Even though it was their first meeting, Chen Xiao could guess the big guy's identity.

"The ancient dragon bear has a trace of ancient dragon blood in its body."

"I have some connection with the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void. Would you be willing to come with me to the outside world?"

Originally, Chen Xiao had entrusted this matter to Cao Ying, but since his avatar's energy had not yet been exhausted, he could take Xiong Zhan with him.

Xiong Zhan was stunned. He felt an indescribable and terrifying pressure from Chen Xiao, and there was indeed a very peculiar bloodline suppression.

With his limited brain working at lightning speed, Xiong Zhan quickly realized that this might be his only chance in this life. If he seized it, it wouldn't be impossible for him to go further in the future and become the Supreme Dragon Bear!
Moreover, given his strength, if Chen Xiao really harbored malicious intentions, he would have no power to resist.

puff~
Xiong Zhan knelt down, his eyes filled with longing.

"Xiong Zhan is willing to leave with his senior!"

Chen Xiao nodded in satisfaction, not paying any attention to his form of address.

"Ying'er, check if the medicinal herbs you need are in this herb plaza. If not, ask Xiong Zhan. Once this matter is settled, I'll wait for you outside."

"it is good."
