Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 281 Jiuxiao Hanmiao Yu, defeats the ancient monster again
"It's been a long time since we last met, ancient monster!"

Lin Yuan gently held Gu Xun'er's slender waist, turned around and looked at the furious ancient monster, raised his eyebrows and said: "Eight-star Dou Zong, your progress in cultivation is not bad. But in the Douqi Continent, beauties are only worthy of the strong. Are you... a strong man?"

"You will soon know whether this commander-in-chief is a strong man." The ancient demon snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "If you have the courage, follow me to the sky for a battle."

After saying that, he stomped the ground violently, and his figure suddenly soared into the sky. In a flash, he was standing in the void.

Lin Yuan smiled, tightened his arms provocatively, then let go of Gu Xun'er's slender waist and walked in front of her.

Feeling the cold gazes of the ancient tribe members behind him, at this moment, he actually had an inexplicable sense of satisfaction of "I just like that you can't stand me, but you can't do anything to me" and "The emperor bears the responsibility of the people."

So, in the blind spot of everyone's sight, he raised his eyebrows provocatively at Gu Xun'er and smiled playfully.

However, the words he said were very tender: "I'll be back soon, wait for me, Xun'er!"

As he spoke, Lin Yuan, as if challenging the girl, reached out his hand and brushed the black hair hanging by her ear in a rather ambiguous manner while the girl looked at him with a look that suppressed her anger and said, "Don't go too far."

This act of treating the talented people of the ancient clan as nothing made several of the ancient clan's geniuses furious.

When it comes to provocation, Lin Yuan is very professional!

Finally, before Gu Xun'er's emotions were on the verge of exploding, a thunder sounded, and his figure disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he appeared above the sky.

"Come on, Ancient Demon! Let me see how much you have grown in this year..."

Looking at the murderous eyes of the ancient monster, Lin Yuan smiled faintly, then waved his sleeves lightly, and as the qi and fire transformed, a large amount of green flames appeared.

"Blue fire fills the sky!"

With a clear shout, the aura of a peak Dou Zong level surged out, and endless green flames intertwined and gathered to form a lotus-shaped sea of ​​fire, releasing temperatures that could burn the sky and boil the sea. The temperature of the Gu Yue mountains and waters rose rapidly.

Feeling the terrifying temperature, the faces of many powerful ancient clan members below suddenly changed.

"At the peak of Dou Zong, this guy... is so strong!"

Looking at the blue fire lotus blooming in the sky, Gu Hua's eyes became serious: "With just a wave of his hand, he can affect the weather to this extent! Lin Yuan's control of the strange fire has reached the level of perfection. The ancient demon is in trouble this time..."

However, feeling the horrifying temperature surrounding his body, the ancient demon's icy face actually revealed a rare happy smile.

"Top Dou Zong, great! This level of strength is worth my past year of hard work and... opportunities."

"Blood Transformation Technique, activate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong blood color surged in his eyes, and his aura rapidly increased, and in the blink of an eye he leaped to the peak of Dou Zong.

Casually, he formed several mysterious seals with his hands, and the vast fighting spirit immediately rushed towards a blue spot of light in his body. The next moment, an icy blue and extremely cold air suddenly burst out from his body.

"The sky is freezing cold, and the earth is frozen!"

With a shout, the icy blue air spread out and immediately became a vortex of ice mist, surrounding the ancient monster and competing with the blue lotus sea of ​​fire centered on Lin Yuan.

As the two confronted each other, the temperature of the entire world dropped rapidly.

After a while, the temperature in Gu Yue Shan Shui returned to normal, as if indicating that the two were evenly matched in this round.

“Such an icy fighting spirit!” Feeling the bone-chilling cold, Gu Xing’s eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar Gu Yao, and was secretly shocked in his heart: “Gu Yao, this brat, actually secretly became so much stronger without telling us…”

He, Gu Yao and Gu Hua have always been on par with each other, but now, this kid Gu Yao... has secretly worked hard and surpassed himself in one fell swoop.

"Gu Hua, that kid, wouldn't..."

Thinking of something, he quickly looked at Gu Hua beside him and found that the other party was also a little shocked. At the same time, Gu Hua turned his head and looked over at him as if he had telepathic connection.

The two looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding. Both sides felt relieved.

"This special cold energy, the Nine Heavens Frost Jade?" A strange color flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes. He looked at the ancient demon in surprise and said, "You actually got the Nine Heavens Frost Jade and used it as the source to mutate your fighting spirit..."

Mutated Dou Qi, a special way to improve combat power in the Dou Qi Continent.

A sufficiently powerful Dou Qi mutation could even allow the mutated person to have the power to fight against opponents of higher levels simply with his special Dou Qi.

There are many ways to actively mutate Dou Qi, among which two are generally recognized as the best: first, to mutate Dou Qi with elixirs; second, to mutate Dou Qi with spiritual objects from heaven and earth.

Among them, the representative of the mutated fighting spirit with elixirs is the eighth-grade nine-color elixir, Yan Mo Qing Xuan Dan. When a fire attribute practitioner swallows this elixir, there is a certain chance that the fighting spirit will mutate, thereby greatly improving the combat power.

Of course, there are also other low-grade elixirs that can mutate Dou Qi.

However, when low-grade elixirs mutate into fighting spirit, both the chance of successful mutation and the improvement in combat power caused by successful mutation are not as good as those of high-grade elixirs.

You get what you pay for, and this principle is especially applicable when it comes to elixirs.

As for using spiritual objects of heaven and earth to mutate Dou Qi, the representative is someone like Lin Yuan, who uses spiritual objects of heaven and earth such as strange fire to transform Dou Qi.

The effect of the Dou Qi transformed in this way is strongly related to the quality of the spiritual creature itself: the better the quality, the stronger the mutated Dou Qi; the worse the quality, the weaker the mutated Dou Qi.

The more powerful the strange fire, the greater the increase in combat power, and this is the reason.

There are strange fires for fire attributes, and there are also spiritual objects for other attributes that can be used to transform fighting spirit. For example, powerful thunder attributers can use the power of wind and thunder, pill thunder, and even the legendary black magic thunder to transform fighting spirit, just like the thunder of the thunder clan.

The ancient demon also transformed his fighting spirit with spiritual objects from heaven and earth, and used the Jiuxiao Hanliu Jade, an ice treasure that is even rarer than the strange fire.

To have the chance to obtain this item is truly a blessing from the ancient monster or the heritage of the ancient clan, which is truly extraordinary.

However, although the power of the Jiuxiao Hanliu Jade is not inferior to that of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, compared with Lin Yuan, the ancient demon's control over it is ultimately too immature, and it can only be on par with the Qinglian Earth Core Fire controlled by Lin Yuan.

"I got the Jiuxiao Hanliu Jade thanks to the battle with you before!" The ancient demon looked at Lin Yuan coldly.

"After the battle that day, this commander realized his weakness in fighting spirit. After returning to the clan, he tried his best to make up for it. Finally, by chance, he found this item! This is God's will for me to defeat you and avenge my previous shame..."

"Haha! God's will..." Hearing the ancient demon's words, Lin Yuan sneered and said indifferently: "Is it God's will... that you can defeat me like this?"

A mysterious purple light flashed in his eyes, and he pointed his palm at the ancient monster from a distance and clenched it fiercely.

"Space strangulation!"

As soon as the light shout fell, a few "crackling" sounds were heard, and the space around the ancient monster rapidly twisted. Several dark space faults appeared out of thin air above the ice mist vortex.

The dark space fault gave off a dangerous aura, cutting the ice fog vortex into pieces. The terrifying attraction swallowed up a large amount of extremely cold blue ice fog, and the ice fog vortex quickly dissipated.

And at the moment when the ice fog vortex completely dissipated, the ancient demon's breath suddenly stagnated and his face turned pale.

"Are you Dou Zun?" The ancient demon looked at Lin Yuan in horror and said in disbelief.

Generally speaking, only a Dou Zun-level warrior can manipulate space so easily and casually.

"But... not yet!" Lin Yuan said indifferently.

The spatial strangulation just now was a successful reproduction of a Dou Zun-level method by using the power of the ancient dragon to bless the semi-Dou Zun-level spatial ability. This way of using the power of space is used to beat up ordinary Dou Zun-level people, and it can be said to be invincible.

However, Lin Yuan would not explain these things to the ancient monster. Moreover, he would not miss any opportunity to fight. When the icy fog vortex collapsed, the sea of ​​blue lotus fire was already churning and sweeping towards the ancient monster.

Thinking of the battle that day and the predicament he faced after being trapped in the flames, the ancient demon's face suddenly changed.

He quickly suppressed the surging blood and energy in his body, stepped out of the air to create a circle of ripples, and activated the "Void Swimming" technique. His figure instantly disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he appeared hundreds of meters away.

However, before the ancient demon could breathe a sigh of relief, an indifferent voice sounded behind him.

"Using the fighting skills that I also know... is very dangerous!"

Lin Yuan's practice of Void Wandering has reached complete perfection.

His attainments and research on this high-level earth-level body movement far surpassed the ancient monster's. Combined with his terrifying soul perception and space perception, he already knew where the ancient monster's body movement would land the moment it took a step.

During the battle, if one's movements and positioning were seen through, the result would be...

"Soul Seal!"

Lin Yuan, who was already waiting at the landing point, the moment the ancient monster appeared from the void, in front of the shocked eyes, he heavily imprinted the condensed soul light seal in his hand on him.

"Bam—"

A low, muffled sound suddenly resounded across the sky.

It was as if the scene of that day was replayed, but many things were completely different from that day. The soul at the peak of the mortal realm and the soul at the late stage of the spiritual realm, both of them used the same earth-level soul skills, but the difference in their power was as great as heaven and earth.

Enduring this soul-destroying blow at close range, the ancient demon's eyes turned white and he lost consciousness briefly.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him.

Looking at the unconscious ancient monster, Lin Yuan was not polite at all. He quickly flipped the seals in his hands, ready to give the opponent a hard blow.

At this moment, a few faint auras emerged from somewhere in the void and locked onto Lin Yuan with a warning.

"Fuck, you're still protecting me during a sparring match! This is how your ancient clan genius got spoiled..."

Lin Yuan's eyes twitched slightly, but he was not stubborn. He transformed the seal into a fist and punched out. The tremendous energy rippled on his fist, causing waves in the space.

The ferocious energy and beast-level strength were all poured onto the ancient monster that had just awakened and was completely defenseless.

After enduring this blow, the ancient demon's face immediately turned unusually red, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. His body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground. The terrible force smashed a huge hole in the hard stone platform.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the ancient monster in the huge pit came into everyone's sight.

He lay dejectedly in the ravine, his chest heaving slightly, his eyes staring blankly at Lin Yuan in the sky.

The victory or defeat is decided here!
The people of the ancient clan below were speechless when they saw this. The ancient demon was defeated in a way that no one had expected, and was completely and miserably defeated. Everyone looked up at the sky again, and saw Lin Yuan standing calmly in the void, without even the slightest disorder in his breath.

The sharp contrast between the two people's states at this moment has made everyone understand the huge difference between them.

"why?"

The ancient demon struggled to get up and looked at Lin Yuan unwillingly: "This year, I thought I had been practicing diligently. But why? The gap between you and me has increased instead of decreased."

Even he felt that the process of Lin Yuan defeating him this time was very "casual".

Although he was defeated in the last battle, he could still feel the opponent's limit; but this time the defeat was a complete defeat, he couldn't even see the gap between himself and the opponent, and it seemed that the opponent didn't even play a single trump card.

"One four-star Dou Zun, three three-star Dou Zun!"

Lin Yuan, who was thinking secretly, heard the unwilling words of the ancient monster. He slowly withdrew his gaze from somewhere in the void and cast it on the embarrassed ancient monster.

Looking at his dejected look, I couldn't help but think in my heart: "Lucky guy, if it weren't for those... I would have called you..."

However, thinking of the four Dou Zun guards in the void, he sighed in his heart, "These young masters are really enviable... It's shameful that a Dou Zong brings guards with him when he goes out", and then he gave up the idea of ​​killing the ancient demon's heart and fooling Jiuxiao Hanliu Yu.

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Yuan looked at the ancient monster calmly, and an indifferent voice sounded.

"You will lose because you are not strong enough!"

"If you don't completely master the power of the Nine Heavens Frost Jade, if you don't break through to Dou Zun, if you don't transform and cultivate into a heavenly-level technique, if you don't cultivate into a heavenly-level fighting skill... then you don't have the qualifications to be my enemy!"

"I... am not strong enough?" Upon hearing Lin Yuan's words, the ancient demon was stunned, and his body, which was held together, shook and was about to fall.

"Ancient demon, don't mind the outcome of the recent victory too much." A gentle voice sounded.

The green shirt fluttered and the figure flashed.

Gu Qingyang flashed and landed beside Gu Yao. He leaned over to support the latter's shaky body and said calmly, "You were careless just now and your movements were seen through. Then you were caught off guard..."

After a pause, he continued: "In the subsequent battles, as long as you pay attention to this, you will not be defeated easily..."

After hearing what Gu Qingyang said before, a few gleams of light flashed in the ancient demon's eyes.

However, Lin Yuan's smiling voice came from the side at this time: "I won't be defeated easily, but the result is still defeat, right? What I said is true, Gu Qingyang."

Hearing this, the ancient demon's eyes, which had just brightened, dimmed again - that's right, he lost...he just lost.

As for Gu Qingyang, he noticed Lin Yuan's meaningful gaze. He glanced at Xun'er, then glanced at the people behind her, his eyes slightly gloomy.

A considerable number of these people are outside the Black Annihilation Army, including some from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who do not get along well with the Black Annihilation Army. As the deputy commander-in-chief of the Black Annihilation Army, Gu Yao just suffered a huge shame in his defeat... He needs to restore some dignity.

"Xun'er wants me and Lin Yuan to fight against each other?" Looking at Xun'er's deep eyes, Gu Qingyang frowned and had some guesses in his mind.

"Forget it. Anyway, for the reputation of the Black Annihilation Army within the clan..."

He handed the ancient monster to Gu Hua, and looked at Lin Yuan steadily. His figure flashed and appeared not far in front of Lin Yuan. He said in a deep voice: "Gu Qingyang, the first deputy commander of the Black Annihilation Army, dares to ask for your advice!"

I have to say that Gu Xun'er is very good at judging people. Gu Qingyang followed his own ideas, but it was very natural for him to follow Gu Xun'er's ideas.

When Lin Yuan heard Gu Qingyang's challenge, he also felt a little interested.

However, when his eyes glanced at a certain void and thought of the four Dou Zuns in the void, the interest that arose in his heart quickly dissipated.

Although he did not pursue a fair fight, he was too lazy to do such a stupid thing as fighting with a burden on his back.

Moreover, even if he defeated the four members of the ancient clan here, he would not gain any benefit, but might get into trouble instead.

He just experienced the protective style of some old guys in the ancient clan.

However, after glancing at Gu Qingyang, Lin Yuan felt somewhat helpless. That determined look... didn't look like he would give up easily.

Rubbing his eyebrows, he suddenly thought of something and then looked at Gu Qingyang with interest.

"The last seal of the Emperor's Seal - the Ancient Emperor's Seal, have you successfully cultivated it?"
