Dou Ancestor Four Stars.
Dou Ancestor Five Stars.
After using a secret technique, Protector Wu's cultivation soared from Dou Ancestor Three Stars to Dou Ancestor Five Stars.
Seeing Protector Wu's sudden increase in power, Xiao Yan frowned, but the momentum of his fist, infused with soul energy, did not diminish. At the same time, a white, icy flame surged out from within Xiao Yan.
"Another Strange Fire!" Fa Ma exclaimed in shock. Strange Fires of Heaven and Earth were already rare and precious treasures, and even if one obtained them, attempting to devour them carried immense life-threatening risks. Yet today, he not only witnessed two Strange Fires but also saw them both appear on a single person.
Beside him, Jia Xingtian chose to remain silent, as no words of astonishment could adequately express what he was witnessing.
Yun Shan and Protector Wu joined forces, barely managing to block Xiao Yan's furious punch. Then, Protector Wu vanished into the black mist, using its concealment to engage in a fierce battle with Xiao Yan.
Nearby, Chen Mo watched the three of them fight with a calm expression, showing no intention of intervening. Instead, he focused on the system's notifications.
"Ding, Celestial Change, High-Rank Earth Class Dou Skill, can be deeply Plundered for 4500 Luck Points, or Plundered for 3000 Luck Points."
"Ding, Soul Shift, Low-Rank Earth Class Dou Skill, can be deeply Plundered for 3000 Luck Points, or Plundered for 2500 Luck Points."
"Ding, Yin-Yang Dual Flames, ranked 21 on the Celestial Flame Chart, can be Plundered for 150,000 Luck Points."
"Ding, Bone Chill Cold Flame..."
"My goodness, these are all incredible treasures," Chen Mo muttered, his Adam's apple bobbing as he was dazzled by the options before him.
The duel between the three Dou Ancestor experts caused the space around them to tremble violently, and even the flow of air in the vicinity slowed to a crawl.
Fortunately, the battle took place in the sky; otherwise, the entire Yunlan Sect would have been destroyed by the energy unleashed by the three of them.
However, no one noticed that Chen Mo, who was not far from the three combatants, remained completely unharmed.
In the sky, thunder rumbled, and every flash of movement produced earth-shattering explosions. Yet, the black mist obscured most of the action, making it impossible for onlookers to see what was happening or determine who had the upper hand.
In one corner of the battlefield, Ya Fei covered her red lips with her hand. Although the image of that person in her heart had already shattered, it would still take time for it to completely fade. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a trace of worry for Xiao Yan.
Boom!
Amidst the flashes of lightning, the dense black mist was torn open, allowing a beam of sunlight to pierce through. In that beam of light, a figure plummeted like a meteor, crashing straight down toward the plaza below.
That figure was none other than Yun Shan.
His white robe was in tatters, his body crisscrossed with bloody wounds, and his pale hair was disheveled, making him look utterly wretched.
He slammed into the plaza, carving out a long, deep trench. The shattered stone fragments were stained with streaks of blood.
"Old Sect Master!"
"Teacher!"
Yun Yun and a group of elders hurriedly flew over to check on Yun Shan's injuries.
"Insignificant ants, how dare you think you can stand against me!" Xiao Yan casually glanced down at Yun Shan, whose fate was uncertain, then turned his cold gaze toward Protector Wu. "Filthy insect, now it's your turn."
Protector Wu's face was grim, and coupled with his naturally sinister features, he looked utterly ferocious. His left arm had been burned by the Strange Fire during his battle with [Xiao Yan], and if he hadn't ruthlessly severed it, he would have perished in the black mist earlier.
"Hehe, Yao Chen, don't think I'm afraid of you. Killing me won't be that easy."
With a wave of his left sleeve, Protector Wu unleashed another surge of thick black mist.
Concealed within the black mist, Protector Wu's voice echoed as the mist flew into the distance, "Yao Chen, the next time we meet, you'll be facing the Hall Master himself!"
"Haha, trying to run? Wishful thinking!" Two streams of Strange Fire surged into the Mystic Heavy Ruler, and a dense concentration of energy rapidly gathered. [Xiao Yan] raised the Mystic Heavy Ruler above his head and slashed it down towards the black mist.
"Flame Partition Wave Engulfing Ruler!"
The power of this Flame Partition Wave Engulfing Ruler was thousands of times stronger than the one he had used against Nalan Yanran. The scorching flame energy instantly penetrated the black mist, engulfing the figure within.
"No!"
A scream rang out as the black mist dissipated, revealing a faint soul entity before everyone's eyes.
The soul entity glared coldly at [Xiao Yan], and in the next moment, it attempted to flee once more.
"Suction Palm!"
[Xiao Yan] wouldn't let it escape. With a suction force emanating from his palm, he pulled Protector Wu's soul entity towards him. Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the soul entity was instantly dragged over.
With a casual squeeze, flames erupted, and Protector Wu completely vanished into the air.
The vast square fell into an eerie silence.
Yun Shan had made a grand entrance.
Protector Wu had made a bold entrance.
But now, one was dead, and the other's fate was unknown.
Some of the faction leaders even began to eye the Yunlan Sect with greed, contemplating how to divide its resources.
Jia Xingtian was at the forefront.
But he didn't act impulsively; he waited to see how events would unfold.
"Next, it's your turn!" This time, it was Xiao Yan who spoke, not Yao Lao. He looked at the calm Chen Mo and sneered, "Your allies are dead. Aren't you afraid?"
"Haha, allies? I don't have such weak allies," Chen Mo suddenly burst into laughter, then lowered his head and said gravely, "As for fear? I think you're the one who should be afraid!"
As Chen Mo's words fell, the entire crowd thought he must be insane. He had just defeated two Dou Ancestors, yet he thought Xiao Yan, who hadn't even reached the Dou Grand Master level, would be afraid of him.
Xiao Yan didn't think Chen Mo was crazy. After all, he had seen Chen Mo's true strength, and with the Celestial Change as his trump card, he wasn't afraid of Chen Mo.
The Celestial Change, a High-Rank Earth Class Dou Skill, like the Yin-Yang Dual Flames, had been obtained from that ancient ruin. What he had just displayed was only the first transformation.
"Enough talk, prepare to die!"
[Xiao Yan] rubbed his fingers together, and two flames gathered in his palms—a black-and-white flame in his left hand and a purple flame in his right.
He raised both hands and slowly brought them together. The two flames collided violently, trembling intensely. Just as they were about to spiral out of control, a sudden force intervened, and the two flames gradually merged.
After the fusion, a cold white flame once again surged forth, colliding with the fused flames.
In no time, the three flames merged together, forming a slowly rotating four-colored fire lotus.
From this four-colored fire lotus, everyone sensed an unprecedented and terrifying energy.
"Chen Mo, this Wrathful Buddha Fire Lotus is my gift to you."
The four-colored fire lotus was released from her hand, shooting towards Chen Mo like a meteor.
"No!"
Below, a pair of cyan wings burst forth from Yun Yun's back, accompanied by a heart-wrenching scream, as she soared into the sky, rushing forward.
But her speed was clearly not enough to make it in time.
As the fire lotus approached, Chen Mo's expression remained calm. He slowly raised his palm and softly uttered, "Extinguish!"
