Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

From Chapter 269 onwards, I'll rely on Xian'er to protect me.

The great seal floated in the air, intertwined with five-colored lightning, and slowly descended.

Bing Yuan formed hand seals, and a giant ice crystal sword, tens of meters long, condensed above his head. Wherever the sword's edge pointed, even space itself froze.

"Soul-Devouring Lock!"

The Soul Palace protectors attacked simultaneously, countless black chains intertwining to form a ferocious black python that opened its blood-red maw and lunged at the great seal above its head.

"A futile struggle!"

Xiao Bai's fighting spirit was instantly drained by the lightning seal. His face turned slightly pale, and after swaying for a moment, he straightened up and stared coldly at the two of them.

The entire altar space was ravaged by lightning, transforming into a vast ocean of lightning.

None of them noticed that on the altar, Little Fairy Doctor, surrounded by poisonous flames, looked up at the seal, and a hint of struggle could be seen in her usually indifferent eyes.

The flames on his body flickered constantly, as if in fear of the lightning seal, and kept shrinking back.

As the flames contracted, the struggle in her eyes intensified, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

On the other side, Lei Yin seemed to be provoked, and a surge of rich, multicolored lightning erupted.

In an instant, it transformed into a torrent, colliding fiercely with the ice crystal giant sword and the black python.

"boom--"

Amidst the earth-shattering explosion, the ice crystal giant sword shattered inch by inch, and the black python howled as it turned into black smoke.

The immense power of lightning struck the two of them, producing a piercing "sizzling" sound.

"ah!"

The Soul Palace Protector let out a shrill scream as his black robe shattered inch by inch in the lightning, revealing the twisted soul beneath.

Bing Yuan fared no better; his protective ice shield was pierced by lightning, leaving his entire body charred black.

As the large seal drew ever closer overhead, the two were terrified and frantically channeled their inner energy, trying to break free from the suppression.

However, the Thunder Seal is Xiao Bai's trump card, so how could it be so easily broken?

This move is a killing move made after all five elements of thunder seeds have been gathered. Xiao Bai has been reluctant to use it, firstly because there is no need to use it.

Secondly, the Five Elements Thunder Seeds have already transformed into five directions in the Dantian. Given that the Five Elements are not yet fully complete, once they are used, the Five Elements Thunder Seeds will suffer a great loss of vitality.

So he had only occasionally pondered this move, and this was the first time he had actually used it.

"You little beast! You forced me to do this!"

Sensing the threat of death, Bing Yuan's eyes widened in fury. He flipped his hand, and a dark blue jade tablet appeared in his palm. Without hesitation, he crushed it.

"Space Jade Slip!!"

Xiao Bai's expression changed slightly, and he became wary, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

He knew this thing very well; it wasn't just used for escaping, but sometimes also for...

Call for reinforcements!

Sure enough, just as this thought popped into Xiao Bai's mind, an extremely powerful spatial force surged out from the shattered spatial jade slip.

It immediately began to twist and contort around Bing Yuan, forming a crack several meters long in the blink of an eye.

A figure in white robes appeared and disappeared in the crack, as if walking in the void, and a vast aura swept over.

"Ice Essence, summon me... Hmm... The aura of the Calamity Poison Body."

"Quickly, Xiao Bai, attack the spatial passage!" Yao Tianhuo's voice urgently rang in Xiao Bai's mind:

"The spatial passage is not yet stable; interrupt it immediately!"

Xiao Bai suddenly realized what was happening and, disregarding the emptiness of his battle qi, quickly formed hand seals.

The lightning seal swiftly changed direction, transforming into a streak of lightning that pierced the spatial rift with a sharp whooshing sound.

"presumptuous!"

The white-clad figure in the crack snorted coldly, and with a flick of his sleeve, a stream of icy blue cold air swept out, colliding violently with the lightning seal.

A violent energy storm erupted, causing the entire altar space to tremble violently, and countless fragments of stone to fall from the dome.

"puff--"

Under the influence of his mind, Xiao Bai was thrown back several steps by the recoil, leaving two deep tracks on the ground.

Just then, Lei Yin was sent flying backward from the spatial rift.

Just as Xiao Bai was about to recall, his expression suddenly changed, and a crystal-clear, jade-like hand suddenly emerged from the spatial rift.

With a gentle press of this hand, the temperature of the entire space plummeted, even freezing the raging lightning into ice sculptures!

Seeing this, Xiao Bai's eyes narrowed slightly. He hurriedly recalled the Thunder Seal and looked at the palm above his head with a solemn expression.

Suddenly, a blinding gray-purple light burst forth from the center of the altar.

The poisonous flames around Little Fairy Doctor completely subsided, and her eyes seemed to have regained their clarity.

With a slight lift of his hand, a barrier of poisonous mist with a diameter of over a hundred feet instantly unfolded. When the icy palm struck the poisonous mist, it corroded and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye!

With his gaze fixed on the Little Fairy Doctor who was displaying incredible power, Xiao Bai's body suddenly stiffened. He knew in his heart that this was definitely not the strength that the Little Fairy Doctor possessed.

His heart trembled slightly, and even knowing this, he still held onto a sliver of hope. His voice was hoarse and dry as he whispered:

"Xian'er?!"

Little Fairy Doctor trembled all over, a thin layer of dark purple light enveloping her.

Her eyes were sometimes cold, sometimes struggling, as if she were fighting against some kind of force.

Just as Xiao Bai was filled with doubt and surprise, he saw Little Fairy Doctor's body suddenly rise into the air.

Her hair was as white as snow, her face was exquisitely beautiful, but her eyes revealed endless sorrow and vicissitudes.

"The Calamity Poison Body... has it appeared again?" Red lips murmured softly, the voice ethereal and otherworldly.

Xiao Bai's pupils contracted, and he immediately became alert. A lightning seal appeared above his head, and he said in a deep voice:

"Who are you?"

The rune between his brows glowed faintly, sensing the familiar soul fluctuations within Little Fairy Doctor's body. Knowing that Fairy Doctor was temporarily out of danger, he felt slightly relieved.

Upon hearing this, the woman did not answer, her eyes revealing a complex expression.

There was sympathy, sadness, and a hint of envy.

"You're luckier than me," she murmured softly.

"At least, there are people who know you have the Calamity Poison Body, yet are still willing to risk their lives to protect you."

Little Fairy Doctor's consciousness seemed to be touched, the struggle in her eyes intensified, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

"Senior, please help him!"

The woman glanced at Xiao Bai and noticed his gloomy expression. He was staring intently at her, his eyes conveying a sense of threat and hidden worry. She couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Are you worried that I'll take over her body?"

"Excellent! She's alive. I'll agree to any conditions you set, but only if she suffers even the slightest harm."

Xiao Bai's face was indifferent. Although he hadn't finished speaking, anyone could hear the threat in his voice.

"I'm afraid you can't maintain this state for long. What can you do if I make a move on her?"

The woman looked Xiao Bai up and down, lingering for a moment on the lightning mark on his head, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

"You can try!" Xiao Bai's eyes were sharp, and his tone was cold.

Even if we can't win, we can always ask Ziyan for help. With the old Dragon Emperor's methods, no one can escape today, not one by one.

However, that was a life-saving measure left by Zhu Kun for Zi Yan, and Xiao Bai was unwilling to do it unless absolutely necessary.

Just then, the spatial rift solidified completely, and a figure slowly walked out.

A figure in white stood in mid-air, his face cold and icy, surrounded by a suffocating aura of icy battle qi. With each step he took, tiny ice crystals condensed in the void.

"Greetings, Elder!" Upon seeing the newcomer, the group from Ice River Valley struggled to their feet and bowed in respect.

Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Bai immediately knew who had come: the Grand Elder of Ice River Valley, Tian Shuangzi.

What puzzled him was how Tian Shuangzi had come to the Northwest Continent. Xiao Bai simply didn't believe that he had just come from the Central Plains.

It's impossible for a one-star Dou Zun to cross two domains so quickly.

"Um!"

His indifferent gaze swept across the entire room, but when he saw Little Fairy Doctor, his eyes suddenly blazed with intense light:

"A congenitally cursed poisonous body!"

Seeing his greedy gaze, the woman frowned, then suddenly raised her hand, and a barrier of purplish-black poisonous fire instantly unfolded.

"Hmm? Dou Zun?"

Tian Shuangzi was startled, his expression changed drastically, and he retreated hastily.

A hint of regret flashed in his eyes. Even a one-star Dou Zun with the Calamity Poison Body was not someone he could contend with.

The woman didn't even glance at him, and muttered to herself:

"Child, watch closely. This is the true power of the Calamity Poison Body."

After saying that, Little Fairy Doctor trembled violently, her eyes instantly turned pure purple-black, and the poisonous flames around her surged wildly!

He slowly raised his head, his eyes no longer showing any struggle, only a chilling killing intent.

She gently raised her hand and softly exhaled:

"Netherworld Poison Domain."

"boom--"

Centered on her, the purplish-black poisonous fire swept across the entire underground palace like a tidal wave!

"not good!"

Tian Shuangzi's expression changed drastically. He waved his hand, grabbed the two Dou Zongs from Ice River Valley, Ice Yuan and Ice Talisman, tore through space, and rushed inside.

Before the poisonous fire could even get close, the others were instantly corroded into nothingness.

The remnant soul of the Soul Palace Protector let out a mournful scream and vanished into nothingness in an instant.

"Heh. So it was just a remnant soul. I, Ice River Valley, will remember what happened today. I'll come back to learn from you again in the future!" The space slowly closed, and a cold voice came over.

"snort!"

With a cold snort, Little Fairy Doctor's figure appeared and disappeared in the poisonous fire. She raised her hand and pointed, and a ray of poisonous fire, condensed to the extreme, instantly pierced through the void!

"ah!"

A pitiful scream emanated from the dark spatial rift, echoing throughout the altar space.

"Xiao Bai, don't force it. This woman may have already broken through to the Dou Zun level before she died, otherwise a wisp of her remnant soul couldn't be this powerful!"

Yao Tianhuo reminded him, his tone full of apprehension.

Xiao Bai nodded, his gaze fixed on Little Fairy Doctor.

He could sense from the remnant soul's tone that she meant no harm.

However, this is just speculation. The truth will depend on her actions, and we dare not let our guard down for a moment.

"Don't worry, if she dares to do anything bad to Sister Xian'er, I'll hit her with the things the old man gave me!" Zi Yan tugged at Xiao Bai's robe and whispered.

Just then, Little Fairy Doctor suddenly turned her head, and a crystal tear slid down from her eyes, which had turned completely purplish-black.

"noob."

A hoarse voice squeezed out of her throat, and the raging poisonous fire around her suddenly froze for a moment.

The purplish-black lines between her brows suddenly cracked, and a phantom figure floated out.

Her hair was as white as snow, and her face was exquisitely beautiful, yet it exuded endless sorrow and vicissitudes.

Its shapely body was almost transparent, clearly just a remnant soul.

She turned and looked back at the Little Fairy Doctor who had regained consciousness, a relieved smile appearing on her face:

"Live well"

"senior!"

Little Fairy Doctor rushed forward, only to see that the remnant soul had already begun to dissipate.

The woman raised her hand and pointed, and a ray of purple light entered the space between Little Fairy Doctor's eyebrows.

"This is my legacy of poison techniques, and the method for controlling the Netherworld Poison Fire. I hope you can forge a path different from mine."

After saying this, he took one last look at the chaotic ruins and sighed regretfully:

"So, it turns out I didn't have to die back then."

Before the words were finished, the remnant soul completely turned into specks of light and vanished.

At the same time, the poisonous fire around Little Fairy Doctor receded back into her body like a tide. She stood there blankly, feeling the massive amount of information flooding into her mind, tears streaming down her face.

"Xian'er!" Xiao Bai rushed forward and hugged her tightly.

"noob."

Thinking of the crazy things he had just done for her, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes reddened slightly. Sniffing his scent, she felt a sense of peace in her heart.

"Her name is You Lian, and she was once a person with a calamity-inducing poisonous body!"

"She is a genius. In her early years, she obtained a Netherworld Poisonous Flame by chance. This flame can absorb all poisons in the world, while the Calamity Poison Body will continuously strengthen its toxins. She used this extraordinary flame to achieve a balance with her constitution!"

"They thought this would resolve the hidden danger, but when her cultivation reached the peak of Dou Zun and she prepared to advance further, she discovered that the Strange Flame was no longer able to balance the ever-growing Calamity Poison Body, and ultimately the poison body completely erupted!"

"This Netherworld Swamp was not always teeming with poisonous creatures. It was only when her poison was about to erupt that she chose to perish in this desolate place, unwilling to harm too many innocent people."

The Little Fairy Doctor's voice trembled slightly as she recounted the past of a woman named You Lian, her fingertips unconsciously clenching Xiao Bai's sleeve.

Among the fragments of memory flooding her mind, she saw a woman named Youlian kneeling alone in the center of the altar, quietly waiting for the poison to erupt.

He personally used his last strength to set up a sealing array to prevent the poisonous gas from spreading.

"Is that Netherworld Poison Fire still inside you?"

Remembering the whereabouts of the Netherworld Poison Fire, Xiao Bai hurriedly released the delicate body in his arms, his expression worried, and began to check her physical condition with his soul power.

"Don't worry, she used her last bit of strength to help me control the Netherworld Poison Fire."

Seeing Xiao Bai's concerned expression, Little Fairy Doctor wiped her eyes, composed herself, a playful glint in her beautiful eyes, and spoke softly:

"Not only that, carefully sense Xian'er's current cultivation level!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, his expression changing constantly. He slowly opened his eyes, his expression quite interesting, a mixture of crying and laughing.

This little girl has actually broken through to the Dou Zong realm!

He was just a six-star Dou Huang before, a small realm lower than him. In less than a day, he actually stepped into the Dou Zong realm. Where is the justice?

That's not how you use cheats.

"Alright, from now on, Xian'er will protect you!"

Noticing his dejection, Little Fairy Doctor found it amusing, took his hand, and gently comforted him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai's lips twitched involuntarily.

How could a grown man like him be reduced to needing his wife's protection?

Although he thought this way, looking at Little Fairy Doctor's gentle yet cunning eyes, he finally sighed helplessly.

"Alright, from now on, I'll rely on Xian'er to protect me."

Her feigned aggrieved tone made Little Fairy Doctor cover her mouth and chuckle.

Zi Yan rolled her eyes. "You two, that's enough! There's a little kid here!"

"A child?" Xiao Bai glanced at her. "Are you sure you're a child?"

Zi Yan puffed out her chest: "Why not? According to the age calculations of us Ancient Dragons of the Void, I'm still a baby!"

"."

Xiao Bai was speechless.

Indeed, for the ancient dragons of the Great Void with their long lifespans, Zi Yan is still quite young.
