Fighting: Practice makes it real, start with a poisonous body.

Chapter 203 The Ruins Collapse, the Cunning Feng Qing'er

"kill!"

Qinglin gave a sharp rebuke.

Yao Ming and the Grand Elder were shrouded in black mist as they simultaneously unleashed the Yellow Spring Palm, a terrifying yellow palm print of death energy appearing in the sky.

At the same time, the Nine-Headed Celestial Serpent's body suddenly swelled, its scales gleaming with a metallic luster in the dim light. Its nine heads rose up, frantically absorbing the power of the five half-saints and spewing out torrents of energy.

"Elder Qi You, I'm here to help you!"

Xiao Yan roared, unleashing the Burning Blade Technique to its fullest extent. His robes fluttered without wind, and a pulsating black flame appeared on his chest.

The primordial fire seed of the Three Thousand Burning Flames transformed into a line of fire, flowing from Xiao Yan's fingertip into Qi You's body. Wherever the fire seed passed, the air was scorched and emitted a "sizzling" sound.

Qi You's body trembled, and his previously slightly weak aura surged instantly. The purplish-black fire seed traveled through his meridians, merging with his own battle qi, and surprisingly, a sense of harmony arose from their shared origin.

"Good lad, you've been hiding this trick all along!"

He laughed loudly, and golden battle aura soared into the sky. His holy might pressed down on the surroundings as if it were a tangible force. He condensed a golden spear in his hands, which, with a sharp whistling sound that tore through the air, pierced straight at the Three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes.

"Boom--!"

The two sides' attacks collided with a deafening roar, and the Battle of the Saints began.

The energy shockwave spread like a giant wave, instantly cracking the ground of the ruins. Huge stones fell from the top, the walls shook violently under the impact, and the originally solid stone pillars snapped in two!

Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, and his gaze quickly swept around.

A gap several meters wide had appeared in the dome overhead, and rubble was falling like raindrops. The ground beneath our feet was constantly sinking, and most of the wall in the distance had collapsed!

The ruins are about to collapse!
"not good!"

No sooner had Xiao Yan’s startled shout fallen than a deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth.

The dome overhead completely shattered, and huge boulders, carrying debris and dust, crashed down like collapsing mountains. The ground sank at an accelerated rate, and you could feel the weightlessness of the falling debris under your feet!

"what!"

Zi Yan's face was full of panic; she was unsteady on her feet from the impact of the rubble.

"Zi Yan!"

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed like lightning, and he dared not hesitate for a moment. His fighting spirit suddenly erupted, and his figure turned into a blur as he grabbed Zi Yan by the neck!

"pay close attention!"

Xiao Yan let out a low shout, his toes slamming into the swaying ground, using the recoil to leap into the air.

The moment the two figures left their spot, the place where they had stood was smashed into ruins by the falling boulder, with debris flying everywhere and raising clouds of dust that blotted out the sky.

"boom!"

Xiao Yan unleashed his Dou Qi, forming a fiery shield that shielded him from the flying debris. Like an arrow released from a bow, he shot out of the ruins and landed steadily on the open ground outside.

The ruins were reduced to rubble the moment they rushed out, and the dust they raised rose into the sky, obscuring half the sky.

"That was close, I was almost buried alive."

Xiao Yan, supporting his knees, gasped for breath. He turned to look at Zi Yan beside him and saw her patting her chest, her face still pale. She was clearly quite frightened by the dangerous scene just now.

"boom!!!"

At the same time, another deafening roar came from the sky.

The two looked up and saw that the battle between the Battle Saints was still raging in the sky.

Yao Ming and the three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes darted through the clouds, each collision accompanied by a tearing of space.

Dark spatial rifts appeared in the sky like hideous wounds, then quickly closed. The energy between heaven and earth fluctuated violently, the wind howled, and even the ground trembled slightly.

The aftershocks of the battle between the Battle Saints spread outwards, touching distant mountain peaks and causing them to explode instantly. Deep, bottomless cracks were carved into the ground, stretching for dozens of miles, resembling scars on the earth.

"The power of a Battle Saint is terrifying..."

As Xiao Yan gazed at the battle in the sky, his expression instantly became extremely solemn.

Even to watch such powerful figures fight, he would have to mobilize all his soul power just to barely catch a blurry glimpse of the battle.

Fortunately, our side has four Dou Sheng level fighters, which can at least temporarily suppress the three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes, and the situation is still under control.

"However, the Three Thousand Burning Flames are ultimately my strange flames, and over time they will cause rejection within Elder Qi You's body, and cannot be sustained..."

And that phallus of a nine-headed serpent was also created by Qing Lin using a secret technique; it's unknown how long it can last.

A hint of worry flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. Before a winner could be decided, there were still too many variables...

"Tear!"

A sharp, tearing sound suddenly erupted, like the heavens cleaving down!
Feng Qing'er appeared like a ghost to Xiao Yan's side, her hand forming a claw, her fingertips swirling with pale purple wind and thunder battle qi. The claw wind carried the power to tear apart mountains, aiming straight for Xiao Yan's vital heart.

"Feng Qing'er!"

Xiao Yan was startled. Ignoring Zi Yan's terrified screams, he grabbed the back of her neck and threw her outwards. Then, he grabbed the Xuan Heavy Ruler and swept it out with immense force.

"Clang clang clang!" The ear-piercing sounds of metal clashing exploded one after another, sparks flew at the point where the claws collided with the ruler, and the aftershocks of Dou Qi spread along the Xuan Heavy Ruler, making Xiao Yan's arm go numb.

Taking advantage of the momentum, Feng Qing'er swept backward, her figure leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, creating a distance of about ten feet between herself and Xiao Yan, her phoenix eyes filled with icy coldness.

"Feng Qing'er, you really are a persistent ghost!"

Xiao Yan gripped the Xuan Heavy Ruler tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his eyes flashed with undisguised killing intent.

This person has tried to kill me time and time again. Now that I've run into him, there's no chance of a peaceful end!
Feng Qing'er's aura surged like black mist, and the sounds of wind and thunder echoed in her palms. Her pale purple battle qi suddenly surged, and her rich demonic power mixed with the aura of wind and thunder spread out.

"You were lucky that we couldn't kill you at the Wind and Thunder Pavilion back then. Today is your death day!"

Xiao Yan sneered, his dark eyes blazing with fighting spirit: "Today, it's not that you want to kill me, but that I want to rid the human race of this scourge!"

Feng Qing'er laughed maniacally, her laughter filled with disdain and ruthlessness: "You're welcome to try!"

"boom!"

The auras around the two suddenly surged to their peak. Xiao Yan's fighting spirit surged like raging flames, and a faint flame lingered around the Xuan Heavy Ruler. Feng Qing'er was enveloped in wind and thunder fighting spirit, with blue and purple light intertwined.

Two completely different forces collided with a deafening roar, creating a visible shockwave that sent rubble flying everywhere.

"die!"

Feng Qing'er shouted sharply, her five fingers suddenly clenched together, and the wind and thunder energy condensed at her fingertips into a sharp claw-like light. The space around the claw-like light slightly distorted, and it pierced straight at Xiao Yan's face.

Xiao Yan's expression instantly turned extremely solemn. He held the Xuan Heavy Ruler horizontally in front of him, and his Dou Qi surged wildly into the ruler. The flames around him grew even more intense as he prepared for battle.

"Tear-!"

The sound of wind and thunder claws tearing through the air rang out again, this time carrying an even stronger aura of death, as if it were about to tear the entire space apart.

However, an unexpected scene unfolded. Feng Qing'er's killing move suddenly changed direction and rushed straight at Qing Lin's back, who was focused on the Battle Saint battlefield not far away!

She's going to kill Qinglin by surprise!
"not good!"

Xiao Yan's heart sank suddenly. He didn't have time to think. His body acted before his mind could react. He reached back with his right hand and pulled off the Emperor's Banner that was floating behind him.

As soon as the banner was in hand, a rich, deep black-purple aura suddenly surged from its surface, and a chilling atmosphere instantly spread, making the surrounding temperature seem to drop several degrees.

"How could I let you succeed!"

Xiao Yan let out a low shout and suddenly waved the flag. With a "whoosh," several blurry ghostly figures swept out from the banner, transforming into a solid barrier behind Qing Lin.

"boom!"

The wind and thunder claw strike slammed into the ghostly barrier, unleashing a muffled roar. The claw strike instantly dissipated, and the ghostly shadows were shaken into a more illusory state, but ultimately managed to withstand this fatal blow.

Qinglin was startled by the movement behind her and turned around abruptly, her face still showing lingering surprise.

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with killing intent as he stared intently at Feng Qing'er. This woman was completely different from before!

Although Feng Qing'er used to be proud and arrogant, she was very straightforward and never bothered with scheming. But now, she is extremely skilled at using underhanded tactics like sneak attacks, and her cunning is terrifying!
Having failed in her first attack, Feng Qing'er let out a cold snort.

Xiao Yan's face was full of coldness. He moved his wrist again, and the banner shook violently.

A dozen solid Dou Zun souls flew out from the banner, quickly protecting Qing Lin in the center, forming an impenetrable protective circle, leaving Feng Qing'er with no chance to make a move.

"I can't keep you here!"

Xiao Yan said coldly.

The moment he finished speaking, three-colored flames suddenly erupted from his body: Bone Spirit Cold Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, and Wind Fury Dragon Flame surged wildly through his meridians, and the scorching energy rushed through his blood vessels!
"Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Fire!"

Xiao Yan suddenly roared and formed hand seals.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three deafening roars emanated from his body, and after each roar, his aura surged.

In just a few breaths, his aura soared, eventually settling steadily at the level of a nine-star Dou Zun. His powerful pressure spread out, making the surrounding air feel incredibly heavy.

Xiao Yan gripped the Xuan Heavy Ruler tightly, raising its dark blade high. With a swing of his arm, the energy in the surrounding world surged violently!
Dense fire-attribute battle energy frantically converged towards the Xuanzhong Ruler, distorting the air around the ruler into vortexes. Even the rubble from the distant ruins was swept into the energy turbulence, rustling loudly.

"Flame Devouring Wave Ruler!"

Xiao Yan roared, and flames instantly ignited on the Xuanzhong Ruler. The three-colored flames intertwined and transformed into a hundred-foot-long wave of fire, carrying the power to incinerate everything, and crashed towards Feng Qing'er.

"Well done!"

Feng Qing'er let out a wild laugh. The demonic phoenix bloodline within her body surged violently, and pale golden demonic phoenix energy gushed out from every pore of her body.

She quickly formed hand seals, and the aura of the demonic phoenix in front of her suddenly condensed, transforming into a semi-transparent golden bell.

Feng Qing'er slammed her palm hard onto the Demon Phoenix Bell.

"block!"
