Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 335: The Battle Continues!

The Dou Qi Continent lacks Origin Qi, causing countless powerful individuals to remain stuck at the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, unable to break through and become true Dou Di, no matter how much they improve their cultivation.

Before them were the Pure Lotus Demon Saint and the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, and more recently there was Xiao Xuan of the Xiao Clan and the Soul Emperor of the Soul Clan.

And Lin Ran right now!

Their cultivation had already reached the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, just one step away from the so-called Dou Di realm. However, this very step tightly restricted them, preventing them from breaking through in their entire lives.

Source Qi!

The Soul Clan has been plotting for this power for thousands of years, and now this thing is inside the Emperor Core in front of them.

In any case, the Soul Emperor will not give up this thing, much less hand this opportunity over to Lin Ran!

"Whatever your intentions, this Imperial Pill is mine, and no one can take it away!"

With a furious roar, the Soul Emperor shot out suddenly, his boundless battle aura spreading out and finally transforming into a tide, fiercely blasting towards the Emperor-grade embryonic core.

"A half-step Dou Di?!"

Sensing the aura emanating from the Soul Emperor, the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator understood the other's realm and thoughts, and his expression turned solemn.

Without the slightest hesitation, facing the Soul Emperor's overwhelming offensive, the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly raised his palm and unleashed a palm strike, blocking the terrifying energy tide.

"Lin Ran, what should we do?"

Gu Yuan looked at Lin Ran. The Soul Emperor and the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator seemed to be evenly matched in strength. They might be able to reap the benefits.

However, the specifics will ultimately be decided by Lin Ran.

"We'll join in too!"

Lin Ran said in a deep voice, "Regardless of what happens to the Soul Emperor, we are currently in the Ancient Emperor's Cave, and this fledgling Emperor-grade Core Formation is the only living being in this cave. Let's deal with him first to prevent any accidents!"

"good!"

Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun exchanged a glance and acted simultaneously. Lin Ran also flew out, his holy flames surging.

Instantly, the energy of this world suddenly became violent, and waves of attacks that caused the world to shatter were continuously launched at the Emperor-grade embryonic core.

This is a combined attack from the four strongest people in the world!

However, even when faced with the combined attacks of Hun Tiandi, Zhu Kun, Gu Yuan, and Lin Ran, the Emperor-grade embryonic pill remained completely unfazed.

Every gesture he made exuded a chilling aura, blocking the four people's attacks.

Such power terrified everyone present, especially Lin Ran and the Soul Emperor.

It should be noted that the strength of these four individuals is not that of ordinary nine-star Dou Sheng.

Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun each had their trump cards, while Lin Ran not only reached the peak of Dou Sheng in cultivation, but also mastered the Holy Flame, which fused thirteen different flames.

Needless to say, Soul Emperor has already reached the level of a half-step Dou Di with the blessing of the Void Devouring Flame. He is only one step away from breaking through to the true Dou Di!

Yet, even when faced with the combined might of these four, the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator single-handedly held his own against the four strongest experts of the day.

As expected of an Imperial-grade embryonic pill!

Of course, the lack of unity between the Soul Emperor and Lin Ran and the other two also played a significant role. Often, when the four of them joined forces to fight against the Emperor Pill, halfway through the battle, the Soul Emperor or Lin Ran and the others would exchange blows to put pressure on the other side.

However, the combat power of a nascent Emperor-grade pill is still beyond doubt. If the opponent were a true Emperor-grade pill, even a Dou Di expert would have to put up a fight against a pill of that grade.

While the fierce battle raged in the sky, everyone else present could only watch from below.

The battle in the sky was too intense; for them, not to mention intervening, even staying there for an extended period would be dangerous.

Even some of the elders of the Ancient Dragon Clan regretted entering.

"Boom!"

A terrifying wave of destruction surged forth from the sky, its force seemingly capable of annihilating the entire world.

Suddenly, the Emperor-grade nascent pill flipped his hand, and a rich fragrance of pills suddenly wafted through the world.

Upon smelling the strange fragrance of the pill, Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun immediately frowned. Under the scent of the pill, it felt as if the fighting spirit within their bodies was about to ignite.

Although Lin Ran and Soul Emperor's movements were somewhat stiff, flames simultaneously ignited on their bodies.

The Holy Flame and the Void Devouring Flame burned simultaneously, easily blocking the fragrance of the pills. However, they all knew that this fragrance was merely a prelude to the upcoming attack of the Emperor-grade embryonic pill!

"Imperial Palm!"

as predicted.

A moment later, the Emperor-grade nascent core suddenly opened its eyes, its body abruptly leaping into the air, and then pressed down on the four people below with a palm.

The instant the palm was pressed out, a dazzling ball of light, about the size of a human head, suddenly appeared!

"Bang bang bang!"

As this dazzling ball of light appeared, the energy in the world suddenly ignited, like boiling oil meeting a hot fire. Looking around, the boundless sky was filled with raging flames, and the world itself became a furnace at that moment!

Upon witnessing the power of the palm strike from the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator, even Gu Yuan and the others paled and hastily mobilized all their internal fighting spirit.

The coldness on the face of the young Emperor-grade cultivator deepened. He pressed down with both hands, and instantly, flames roared down from the heavens and earth at an astonishing speed.

In a mere instant, the boundless flames that filled the heavens and earth were completely absorbed into the dazzling ball of light in the hand of the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Press!"

As he pressed down with both palms, the world went dark, except for the ball of light in his palm containing the Emperor-grade embryonic core, which radiated a destructive light.

The ball of light wriggled and finally roared down, landing on top of Lin Ran and his companions in less than half a breath!

"roar!"

Faced with such a terrifying attack, even Gu Yuan and the other three felt a strong sense of danger. Without prior agreement, their boundless battle qi surged and quickly formed battle techniques to fight back!

"Dragon Emperor Seal!"

"Ancient Emperor Mirror!"

"Blood Thunder Heart-Devouring Palm!"

"Holy Flame Annihilation Palm!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Terrifying battle qi surged from the four people's bodies, colliding with the terrifying Emperor Dan Palm in the sky.

A deafening roar followed, and the expressions of the Ancient Void Dragon below, as well as Zi Yan and the others, all changed drastically at that moment.

No one expected that this Emperor-grade Feidan would actually be able to contend with Lin Ran, Soul Emperor, and others at the same time!

Although the four were divided into two groups, each with their own ulterior motives, they were still top-tier experts in this world. Unexpectedly, even in a semi-joint state, they were all beaten to such a state by that Emperor-grade embryonic pill.

The Emperor-grade embryonic core hovered in the sky, its cold gaze fixed on the four people below.

"You're not quite there yet if you think you can refine me."

"Today I will refine you all, and forge you into true Emperor Pills!"

The last syllable suddenly escaped from the mouth of the Emperor-grade nascent Dan.

He suddenly looked up, his palms condensing, and a massive amount of pill energy, hundreds of feet in size, condensed and took shape. Accompanied by a rich aroma of pills, it suddenly shot out. The terrifying power made everyone present, even the Soul Emperor, change color!

"This kind of strength..."

"This guy has been accumulating strength in this ancient emperor's cave for who knows how long; his power has probably already reached the peak!"

"The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor he's imitating, this guy really wants to become a real Emperor."

"Let's attack together!"

The Soul Emperor's eyes flickered slightly, and a massive surge of dark red battle qi erupted from his body, then collided violently with the giant wave of pill power like a vast black hole.

Lin Ran and the others also made their moves. This guy's performance far exceeded that of the original work. If they didn't make their move, they might really be refined by him, just as he said!

The surging battle qi roared and collided with each other, then exploded, painting the entire square sky with extremely beautiful, colorful light, like the most magnificent fireworks.

However, beneath that dazzling beauty lies a destructive power.

"boom!"

Fireworks exploded in the sky, and the four figures retreated rapidly.

"The Imperial Ruler!"

Having gained the upper hand in one move, a cold smile appeared on the aged face of the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator.

His body hovered in the sky, his right hand making a grasping motion. The battle qi energy within his body actually condensed in his palm, and in the next instant, a dazzling giant ruler suddenly appeared in his hand. The next instant, the Emperor-grade embryonic core flashed and appeared in front of Gu Yuan, the ruler striking down directly!

"Thump!"

The speed of the Emperor-grade embryonic pill was astonishing. It fell a foot down, and Gu Yuan didn't even have time to react. He was swatted down like a fly and shot into the square below with a thud, kicking up countless clouds of dust.

"Things as insignificant as ants."

The Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator sneered, his figure instantly appearing above Zhu Kun's head, unleashing a devastating attack.

Zhu Kun raised his dragon head, his dragon might overwhelming, but in just a moment of collision, Zhu Kun was defeated, just like Gu Yuan, who was fiercely knocked down!

Upon witnessing this scene, the horror on the faces of the ancient dragons in the distance intensified.

Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun were both at the late stage of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, yet they were so helpless against the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator.

Isn't the gap between the two sides a bit too big?

"Bang! Bang!"

The plaza shattered, and smoke and dust filled the air. Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun suddenly burst out, finally hovering in mid-air, their faces alternating between pale and bluish.

One of them was the patriarch of an ancient clan, the strongest person on the continent in thousands of years; the other was the Demon Beast Emperor from ten thousand years ago, an undisputed powerhouse. When had they ever been beaten to this state?

"We must join forces; this guy's strength is very strange!" Gu Yuan roared.

Lin Ran's gaze lingered briefly on the Soul Emperor. In the original story, the Void Devouring Flame used the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade to unleash the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Core Transformation Divine Technique, which allowed him to successfully create a nascent Emperor-grade core.

At this moment, the consciousness of the Void Devouring Flame had long been erased by the Soul Emperor. Even if the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe was here, no one present would know the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's Transformation Pill Divine Technique.

"Looks like we'll have to deal with this guy first."

Lin Ran snorted lightly: "Soul Emperor, if you continue to hide, what awaits you later won't be the Origin Qi within the Emperor Core, but rather me and the Emperor Core joining forces to kill you!"

"Do I need you to teach me?"

The Soul Emperor sneered several times, black flames surged around him, and his battle qi erupted wildly. With the support of the black flames, his black and red battle qi seemed to burn and devour everything!

Gu Yuan took a deep breath, and a surge of energy erupted from his body, causing even the heavens and earth to tremble.

With a roar, Zhu Kun conjured a terrifying dragon body over a thousand feet in size, its entire body covered in purple-gold scales. A powerful, steel-like aura arose spontaneously, and a terrifying dragon's might descended upon it.

"Come on, let me give you a taste of your own medicine today!"

Looking at the three of them going all out, Lin Ran also took a deep breath. The dreamlike holy flames rose into the sky. In an instant, the world was filled with strong winds, dark clouds, and thunder, as if the end of the world had arrived.

The four strongest experts on the continent finally unleashed their most powerful abilities at this moment!

Sensing that everyone's aura had suddenly increased several times, the Emperor-grade embryonic core's gaze swept over the four people before finally landing on Lin Ran.

"You bastard... Good, good, good. I never thought that ten thousand years ago it was like this, and ten thousand years later there are still people who dare to take this path."

"Unfortunately, without Origin Qi, no matter how exceptionally talented you are, you will never be able to break through to the Dou Di realm!"

"But after today, I will be completely transformed and become the first emperor in ten thousand years!"

Emperor Dan is also a Dou Di!

The Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator's gaze was icy as he looked at Lin Ran and the others. A sinister smile appeared on his face, which was identical to that of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe, and his indifferent voice slowly rang out.

The moment the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul finished speaking, an extremely dazzling radiance suddenly appeared on its body.

The radiance shot straight into the sky and landed on the magnificent statue of the ancient emperor Tuoshe. The next moment, countless rays of light spread out from the statue, and at the same time, a rich fragrance of elixir continued to emanate, eventually spreading throughout the entire ancient emperor's cave.

"Imperial Pill Transforms into Heaven!"

As the rich fragrance of the pills spread and the radiance shone into the depths of the space, the Emperor-grade embryonic pill shouted out, and immediately, a rumbling sound echoed throughout the space.

The next moment, everyone was horrified to see that the entire space began to tremble violently, and a special array was formed, enveloping everyone within it.

"This guy... he wants to refine us right here!" Gu Yuan exclaimed in shock, his expression growing increasingly solemn.

"The formation formed by this move is extremely extraordinary; it must have drawn upon the power of this cave." Zhu Kun said in a deep voice, "No, we must break through here, otherwise we might really be completely refined by this guy and become the energy source for it to break through to the true Emperor Core."

"Foolish! This cave dwelling has been inhabited by a young Emperor-grade cultivator for countless years. Now that it has activated the great formation, how could it possibly let us escape so easily!" Soul Emperor said coldly.

"Then what do we do? Are we just going to wait here to die? Even you and I can't withstand such a powerful formation!" Zhu Kun roared angrily.

The Soul Emperor sneered, too lazy to say anything more to Zhu Kun, but his gaze fell on the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in his palm.

As this grand formation was activated, the inexplicable connection he felt from the ancient jade of the Tuoshe became even stronger.

If there is any way to break this great formation, then this lump of ancient jade must be the key!
