Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 427 Soul Palace Battle Venerable

A strong sense of crisis suddenly came, and the close proximity made Nan Gui feel somewhat incredulous. He looked down at the two peak Dou Huangs he was holding.

"burst!"

With a sharp shout from Xiao Yan, the bodies of the two elders, Mu Lan and his companion, suddenly burst forth with intense, blazing red light in Nan Gui's hands.

With a deafening boom, as if a thunderclap had appeared out of nowhere, a dazzling light enveloped the entire mass of black mist.

It stood out particularly brightly under the cover of dark clouds.

Although Nan Gui sensed the danger, the explosion came so suddenly that it caught everyone off guard.

Moreover, the explosive power exceeded that of the two elders Mulan's peak Dou Huang self-destruction, and the surrounding space shattered in an instant.

The immense energy released instantly blasted the Southern Ghost down from the sky, sending it crashing heavily to the ground.

The earth shook violently, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Hai Bodong and Jia Xingtian were shocked to see the Soul Hall expert fall to the ground in the blink of an eye.

Even they were completely taken aback by how easily this powerful figure could be defeated.

Moreover, the sudden explosion and mysterious deaths of two peak Dou Huangs were also unpredictable.

Xiao Yan sensed something was amiss when he arrived, so he became more cautious.

The reason for not killing the two elders, Mulan and his companion, at the beginning was not only to allow them to maintain the effects of the Three Beasts Savage Technique, but also to inject the Super Fallen Heart Flame into their bodies during the fight.

The Fallen Heart Flame is known as a "cultivation cheat code," and the Super Fallen Heart Flame is even more powerful.

However, to withstand even stronger effects, one needs to have sufficiently strong physical fitness.

It is obvious that the two elders, Mulan and her husband, are not within the scope of what they can bear.

The Super Fallen Heart Flame, combined with the two severely injured peak Dou Huangs, formed a super-amplified "Flame Bullet." Even a Dou Zun expert would not feel good after being hit by such a blow.

With a light and graceful movement, Xiao Yan landed on the ground as elegantly as a fallen leaf returning to its roots, forming a stark contrast with the disheveled Nan Gui. Every movement he made appeared calm, relaxed, and at ease.

The black mist rapidly receded, coalescing into a tall, imposing figure under everyone's gaze, its blood-red eyes particularly striking.

"Good, good, good! Those who were able to plot against me, Venerable Nan Gui, and Protector Yin and the others deserve to die."

"You actually know that Protector Silver and the others are dead?" Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly.

He didn't find it strange that the Dou Zun-level figure in front of him knew about the deaths of Protector Yin and the others.

Iron Guardian once said that all the guardians of the Soul Palace have a soul imprint, which will be detected by the people of the Soul Palace after their death.

Just like how, after the death of the Iron Guardian, the Silver Guardian was immediately able to lead a team out from the Soul Palace branch to which they belonged.

What Xiao Yan found strange was related to this.

The Gama Empire is located in a remote area and does not have convenient space wormholes. Even if Nan Gui's strength reaches the level of Dou Zun, which is much stronger than Yin Hufa, it is impossible for him to shorten the journey of several months to one or two days.

This Southern Ghost Fighting Venerable was clearly already near the Jia Ma Empire and even knew about the Silver Protector's actions, which is why he was able to stir up trouble so quickly after the Silver Protector and others died.

But if this Southern Ghost Fighting Venerable knew all along, why didn't he show up at the Cloud Mist Sect?

Fallen Heart Flame already possesses the characteristic of suppressing the soul, and the Super Fallen Heart Flame is even more powerful.

Having been tricked from the start, Nan Gui Dou Zun seized the opportunity to buy time to recover to his peak condition, chuckling, "Deceiving superiors and concealing the truth is no small matter, what's so strange about that?"

"With the strength of the Silver Protector and the others, the task I assigned to them should have been completed long ago, but it has been delayed for more than two years without any news. At that time, I realized that there was a problem."

Upon arriving here, I learned what the Silver Protector and the others had been doing; they had discovered something significant in the Gama Empire.

Nan Gui Dou Zun stared greedily at Xiao Yan, as if he were looking at some peerless treasure.

"Since Protector Silver doesn't follow the rules, I might as well let him do whatever he wants. As it turns out, Protector Silver overestimated himself, but he still played his part."

Upon hearing Nan Gui Dou Zun's account, Hai Bodong gasped in shock.

Unexpectedly, the terrifying Silver Protector was merely a pawn of this Southern Ghost Fighting Venerable.

As expected of someone from the Soul Palace, their actions cannot be judged by ordinary standards. Xiao Yan now understood why the Southern Ghost Dou Zun had not appeared.

Although Nan Gui Dou Zun didn't explicitly state the role played by the Silver Protector, Xiao Yan had a pretty good idea of ​​it.

After the Silver Protector's antics, the Xiao family's strength has been tested.

It's impossible to exert a deterrent effect with just two people like Yunlan Sect did last time.

Moreover, this old ghost, with his peak strength as a two-star Dou Zun, certainly has the ability to step in and clean up the mess at this moment.

Seeing Xiao Yan remain silent, Nan Gui Dou Zun assumed he had fallen into despair and laughed even louder:

"I must say, Xiao Yan, you are indeed a genius. Even in the Central Plains region, it would be difficult to find someone like you. But what I enjoy most is killing geniuses like you and collecting your soul!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Gui Dou Zun's aura suddenly surged, and a strong yin wind rose up, as if he had been plunged into a land of demons and monsters.

"I am not the Silver Protector who was deceived by your Xiao family. Before my strength as a peak two-star Dou Zun, all your schemes and tricks are in vain!"

Putting himself in their shoes, if Nan Gui Dou Zun were the Silver Protector from that day, and suddenly saw that the previously unremarkable Xiao family had produced a powerful figure capable of contending with multiple Dou Zong, he wouldn't dare to rashly attack the Xiao family either.

After all, if one person's strength has already reached a level beyond their level, who knows what kind of old monster might be hiding in that family?

But now the situation is completely different; he has figured out the Xiao family's true strength.

Nan Gui Dou Zun's eyes suddenly blazed with blood-red light, and several jet-black soul chains immediately condensed behind him, rushing towards Xiao Yan.

Although it was the same method, in the hands of the powerful Nan Gui Dou Zun, each soul chain contained the power to shatter space.

"Such speed! Is this the strength of a Dou Zun expert?" Upon seeing such an expert for the first time, Hai Bodong never expected that the gap between Dou Zong and Dou Zun would be so huge.

If I were in Xiao Yan's position, I would probably find it very difficult to even stand up.

Faced with the overwhelming chain of souls, Xiao Yan maintained his calm and composed expression.

"Killing the Iron Guardian and annihilating the Silver Guardian's squad is just the beginning. The death of you, a Soul Palace Battle Venerable, today will not be the end."

Just as the soul chain shattered Xiao Yan's body, a powerful aura suddenly burst forth from Xiao Yan's body.
