Chapter Ninety Victory and Defeat

  Above the sky, the cloud mountain that suffered a heavy blow, under the gaze of shocking eyes, fell rapidly, but just when it was still dozens of meters away from the ground, he suddenly tapped his feet in mid-air, and his body stabilized again. However, the residual bloodstains at the corner of his mouth and the ferocious and terrifying face still proved that the previous sudden blow had caused him some injuries.

  Xiao Yan's strongest trump card has finally been revealed, and everyone is overjoyed. With the help of this mysterious teacher, defeating Yun Shan should not be a problem.

  Yun Shan's gaze was fixed intently on the old man hovering beside Xiao Yan, and after a moment, he slowly wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, his voice cold and menacing as he said, "So you're this kid's master."

  In the sky, Yao Lao glanced at Yunshan below with a faint smile and said, "My student, how can you allow yourself to be insulted and bullied? You are just a small Dou Zong. If it were in the past, I would only need one sentence and your Yun Shan Zong would have been expelled from the Dou Qi continent."

  "A mere soul body, yet you dare to be so arrogant. Since you've dared to show yourself, then today, you'll stay behind along with Xiao Yan." Yun Shan was not afraid in the slightest. A mere soul body, what could it do, even if it had possessed the power of a Dou Zun before?

  "Is that all you've got?" Yao Lao said slowly, the snow-white flames dancing around his body as if they had a life of their own.

  "Hmph, don't think I don't understand. If the soul body doesn't attach to the physical body, the time it can exert its power is quite limited. You and this little bastard may have ambushed me once, but when your soul power is exhausted and disappears, I'll be able to kill you two master and disciple together!"

  Yao Chen's face sank, Yun Shan was right. If it wasn't for Xiao Yan having obtained a lot of good things recently to restore his soul power, he would have found it hard to reveal his true form. Even so, he would still find it difficult to match up against the real Dou Zong.

  "Teacher, let's go together and quickly kill Yun Shan! " Xiao Yan also didn't expect that Yun Shan would be so familiar with Yao Lao's weakness. In this case, they could only fight quickly and decisively!

  "A mere hybrid, plus a half-dead soul body, what can you do!" Yun Shan's sleeve robe shook, and the deep blue energy that burst out from his head suddenly fluctuated, then quickly condensed, and in an instant, it actually condensed into a giant cyan long sword over ten feet wide. The wild wind energy continued to gather on the sword, and the surrounding space suddenly violently surged.

  It's done! The surging aura within Xiao Yan was like a tidal wave, constantly flowing through the specific meridians and pouring into his palms. As this massive amount of aura surged in, his originally slender hands became unusually large. A dazzling strong light also gradually emerged, eventually becoming almost as brilliant as a blazing sun, piercing to the extreme.

  "It's not good to forget the existence of the original body." Yao Lao became a ghostly shadow, his movements as swift as a ghost, rushing towards Yun Shan. White flames wrapped around his palms, and as long as he could disrupt Yun Shan's gathered energy, Xiao Yan's Kaito Seal would be able to defeat Yun Shan.

  A surge of energy also rushed towards Yao Lao's back, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, he turned around and swung his palm lightly, a white flame shot out, burning the sharp sword energy into nothingness. He coldly gazed at Yun Feng who was holding a long sword and floating in mid-air, and sneered: "Little girl, you also want to stop me?"

  "I am Yunlan Sect's sect master, and I must maintain the reputation of Yunlan Sect. Moreover, Yunshan is my teacher, and I won't let you harm him." Yunyun said with a smile.

  After a fierce battle, Yun Ruo's emotions had gradually stabilized. Although she might not be able to make Xiao Yan draw his sword and face her yet, there was no way she would let Yao Lao successfully launch a sneak attack on Yun Shan!

  Seeing his master Yunshan fall into a disadvantageous situation, Yunyun burst out with his original strength and struck back Haibodong. He went forward to intercept Yao Lao, and by the time Haibodong wanted to stop Yunyun, Guhe was already standing in front of him.

  Kurōga may not be strong in battle, but he's at least a fighting king. He can hold off Kaihōdō for a while, no problem.

  "Hmph, little doll, you don't even know your own weight, yet you dare to block my way?" Yao Lao sneered, his fists and feet wrapped in pale flames fiercely attacking Yun Yun. For a moment, Yun Yun's elegant and moving face turned pale, and even a strong warrior at the peak of Dou Huang would find it difficult to withstand this attack, slowly falling into a disadvantageous position.

  Actually, Yao Lao has also used up all his current strength, and there won't be many chances for him to make a move with such power.

  "It seems that it can't be delayed any longer, and this little guy must be settled quickly. If that old man is allowed to get free, I will be in trouble." Glancing at the battle circle of Yun Rong and Yao Lao, especially when he saw that the former was slightly disadvantaged under Yao Lao's fierce attack, Yun Shan's heart was even more shocked.

  The cloud mountain's eyes suddenly turned sharp, his hands changed in an instant, and a cold killing intent filled the air as he shouted: "Wind Slash!" As soon as the shout fell, a strange and mournful sword hum echoed through the sky. Everyone looked up in shock to see that the long sword on Cloud Mountain's head had begun to spin wildly, and the eerie whistling sound was coming from there.

  "Open Mountain Seal!" Along with a low and stern shout that resounded in Xiao Yan's mind, a massive energy handprint that was several meters large suddenly appeared!

  A massive energy palm print emerged in the midst of countless astonished gazes, and after a brief pause, it brought forth an unusually intense pressure and energy fluctuation, which fiercely collided with the violently incoming energy longsword.

  "Boom!"

  In an instant, both contained extremely terrifying attacks, and as they met in the sky, a deafening explosion suddenly rang out. Even with prior preparation, there were still many people whose ears buzzed for a moment, and their vision was slightly blurred.

  Two ferocious attacks collided. A surge of energy waves, like a tangible substance, wildly fluctuated and distorted space, also enveloping the positions where Xiao Yan and Yun Shan were located, until the energy waves that filled the sky slowly dissipated, and the two figures reappeared in everyone's line of sight.

  At this moment, Xiao Yan's sleeves were all torn apart. His bare arms were exposed, and there were fine blood stains on his arms. His face was also pale, with a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. His originally robust aura had also weakened significantly. Cloud Mountain opposite him looked equally disheveled, his clothes tattered, and his dry palm trembling slightly outside his sleeve. A trickle of blood flowed down from his palm, along his fingers, and dripped silently.

  Taking advantage of the gap between the fierce battle with Yao Lao, Yun Yun saw that Xiao Yan had not been directly killed by Yun Shan, and she also secretly let out a breath of relief. However, when she saw the bloody palm of Yun Shan, her pretty face also flashed a complex emotion. She didn't want to see Xiao Yan die at Yun Shan's hands, but neither did she want to see Yun Shan being killed by Xiao Yan.

  Xiao Yan's gaze also swept towards the battle between Yao Lao and Yun Yun, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

  Yao Lao and Yun Yun were almost locked in an extremely fierce stalemate, with both sides using their most powerful moves, creating a precarious situation. However, they maintained a strange balance. Yun Yun knew that Yao Lao was a spiritual body, capable of unleashing Dou Zong-level combat power, but lacking in endurance. Therefore, Yun Yun did not force a hard fight, instead using agile techniques to drag the battle into a stalemate with Yao Lao. Once Yun Yun managed to wear down Yao Lao's strength, this battle might take a drastic turn.

  In the distant chaotic battlefield, the killing was even more chaotic and intense, with strong warriors falling to the ground almost every moment, their lives hanging in the balance. The powerful warriors of Yunlai Sect were almost all out at this moment, desperately blocking the fierce offensive of the alliance's strong warriors.

  However, in front of Yunlan Sect's seamless formation, Xiao Yan's allied strongmen had already fallen into a disadvantage.

  Xiao Yan's gaze swept around in a circle before quickly retracting, slowly exhaling a breath as his eyes gleamed with cold intent at Yun Shan, whose mouth was curled into a sneer. After a brief moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and produced a handful of medicinal pills, which he then stuffed into his mouth and began to chew vigorously.

  Yun Shan's face also twitched, and although he was a strong Dou Zong, when it came to the storage of Dan medicine, it was naturally impossible for him to surpass Xiao Yan's rich collection. So he could only watch as Xiao Yan consumed his Dou Qi, slowly recovering with the help of the Dan medicine. Yun Shan couldn't just stand there stupidly waiting for Xiao Yan to recover his Dou Qi, so in the instant that Xiao Yan swallowed the Dan medicine, his body suddenly moved, and he appeared in front of Xiao Yan with a strange movement. His palm was facing Xiao Yan's throat, cutting horizontally, and his fingernails were as sharp as a blade under the cover of the deep blue Dou Qi.

  His body slightly arched back, the palm of Yunshan's hand brushed against Xiao Yan's face and flew past, that cold and fierce gust of wind made Xiao Yan's skin feel a chill.

  His body retreated, Xiao Yan's fingers shook, and the snow-white ring suddenly burst open, a blazing snow-white flame rapidly surged in front of Xiao Yan. Seeing the snow-white flame appear, Xiao Yan almost simultaneously tore apart the Lüli Lotus Heart Fire, transforming it into a green and formless flame. Immediately after, Xiao Yan didn't hesitate at all, his palms slapped together, and the Qinglian Earth Heart Fire and Meteorite Heart Flame were both slapped into that snow-white flame.

  Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, Yun Shan's figure instantly disappeared. For Xiao Yan's terrifying blow, he must interrupt it.

  The dark cloud mountain flashed over, causing Xiao Yan's face to change slightly. The dark green wings behind him fluttered, and his palms tightly grasped the three-colored flame that was rapidly merging. His body quickly retreated, and as he dodged, Xiao Yan snapped his fingers, shooting several small fire lotuses, each no larger than a palm, from his ring towards Yun Shan.

  The small fire lotus could not possibly cause any harm to Yun Shan, but it did indeed slow down his pursuit. In a short time, the three-colored fire lotus was already floating in Xiao Yan's palm.

  At the sight of this, the figure that was charging forward suddenly stopped in its tracks. In an instant, its body violently recoiled and retreated. As it flashed back, a dark, deep blue aura burst forth from its body like a tidal wave. Its hair stood on end as if electrified. In just an instant, the majestic aura formed a massive green dragon-shaped whirlwind that was tens of meters in size in the sky. The figure's body was completely enveloped by this enormous vortex.

  Looking at the suddenly vigorous movement of Yunshan, Xiao Yan was also stunned for a moment. A cold smile then appeared on his pale face. Just to merge these three different flames together, Xiao Yan had almost exhausted all the Dou Qi in his body, and even his spiritual power had been drained dry. He didn't believe that Yunshan still had any means to counter this move.

  "Go!"

  With a flick of his finger, Xiao Yan suddenly let out a stern shout! As the sound fell, the slowly rotating three-colored fire lotus instantly transformed into a blurry beam of light, and burst out like lightning. Finally, it crashed onto the huge whirlwind that was spinning wildly, like a small shooting star.

  A three-colored smoke flower suddenly burst forth at the top of the whirlwind, a terrifying energy storm that instantly swept out from the collision point of the whirlwind and fire lotus, immediately spreading across an area of hundreds of meters.

  A thunderous explosion, resounding throughout the sky, a three-colored flame wave and a dense, deep blue aura, intertwined in the air, finally like a turbulent sea wave.

  Surging in all directions, the flames mixed with terrifying energy swept across the sky, except for a few people, all the strong men were fleeing in a hurry, afraid of being stained by the flames and ending up in a miserable situation.

  Many powerful warriors fell to their deaths under this move. The survivors, after dodging, all looked up and gazed at the thick cloud layer that was faintly emitting a three-colored glow.

  The cloud rhyme and Yao Lao both retreated a hundred steps after Xiao Yan's fire lotus was smashed out. Cloud Rhyme turned her head to see the crowd of elders from Yunshan Sect, and upon discovering the significantly reduced number of people, her heart also sank heavily. She didn't expect Yunshan Sect's losses to be so severe. Moreover, in the fiery clouds in the sky, Yunshan's life or death was still unknown. Although everyone clearly understood the strength of Dou Zong's strongmen, they were also clearly aware of the terrifying energy contained within the three-colored fire lotus that Xiao Yan had unleashed earlier. Therefore, even though they were clear about Yunshan's abilities, they were still filled with anxiety.

  Two figures slowly fell from the fiery clouds, their bodies paused for a moment before shaking their shoulders, and a pair of emerald green flame wings emerged from behind them.

  His unique Flame Wings revealed his identity, and it was indeed Xiao Yan. Immediately, the square erupted in a mixture of shocked and excited shouts.

  Behind the emerald green flame wings, a figure suddenly appeared, rushing down towards another person who was constantly falling downwards. With only a little Dou Qi left in his body, it was all drawn out at this moment, wrapping around his fist, heavily smashing towards Yun Shan. Xiao Yan clearly knew that this was the best opportunity to kill Yun Shan!

  Xiao Yan swiftly flashed in front of Yun Shan, getting closer and closer to him. The ferocious smile at the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth grew larger, a faint voice transmitted into Yun Shan's ears. "Old dog, this blood debt, I have remembered for three years already. Today, you will pay a miserable price for it!"

  His face suddenly appeared crazy, Xiao Yan burst out laughing, and the infuriated internal energy immediately surged into his fist along the meridians, finally facing Yun Shan's heart, and ruthlessly slammed it down. Just as his fist was about to hit the target, an old withered hand caught Xiao Yan's fist.

  "As for the blood debt, I have a lot on my body and don't care about adding yours. But if you want to take action against my sect, Cloud Mountain will not fall so easily!" A sharp glint appeared in Yun Shan's eyes!
