Douluo: Rainbow Cat, Blue Cat, Seven Swords and Dragon Rider

Chapter 539 Half-Saint Xiao Yan
Xiao Yan did not reach the level of Dou Sheng when he emerged from seclusion this time; he was only at the level of a half-saint.

After all, this time he only obtained the Bodhi seed, not the Bodhi mind.

However, a combat power of half-saint level is more than enough to deal with the battle at hand.

Xiao Yan stood directly in front of Hua Yu, holding the Xuan Heavy Ruler, still using the same Flame Dividing Wave Ruler technique he had used at the beginning.

When Ice Venerable saw Xiao Yan appear, he became so confident that he wanted to fight him. However, he was instantly killed by the Flame Devouring Wave Ruler, which he used as a starting move.

When Thunder Venerable saw that Ice Venerable was so easily killed by Xiao Yan, he was stunned for a moment before turning around and fleeing.

"Trying to escape? Now that you're here, you're staying for good."

Xiao Yan activated his Vajra Glazed Body once again, and the enormous Xiao Yan stomped directly on it.

Lei Zun Zhe's all-out resistance was completely ineffective, and he was directly crushed by Xiao Yan's foot.

Seeing Xiao Yan's strength, Tianming Laoyao secretly thought things were not good. He could only go toe-to-toe with Yao Chen, and now with a half-saint added to the mix, he was bound to lose.

Therefore, the old demon Tianming decisively chose to escape, but Yao Chen would not allow it to happen.

"If you want to leave, you'll have to be able to leave first."

"Go away!"

Yao Chen held Tianming Laoyao back tightly, giving him no chance to escape.

After Xiao Yan instantly killed Lei Zunzhe and Bing Zunzhe, he immediately turned his gaze towards Yao Chen.

"Teacher, let me help you."

Xiao Yan then began to rub the fire lotus. Now, Xiao Yan was rubbing the fire lotus much faster than before. In the blink of an eye, a Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus was poked out.

"Teacher, please move further away."

Xiao Yan directly hurled the Buddha's Fury Lotus at the Heavenly Demon, who had no chance to dodge and was completely engulfed by the exploding Buddha's Fury Lotus.

The entire space was shattered by the explosion of the Buddha's Wrathful Lotus.

However, the Heavenly Demon King lived up to his reputation as a veteran half-saint; even after consuming the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, he still managed to survive.

However, he had been severely injured and had completely lost the ability to resist.

Yao Chen and Xiao Yan landed in front of him, and only then did the Heavenly Demon King think of begging for mercy.

"Let me go. I can become your subordinate force. My strength as a half-saint is still quite respectable."

"There's absolutely no need for that. I don't want to keep someone around who could betray me at any moment. You're going to die."

Xiao Yan had no intention of wasting words with Tianming Laoyao and swung the Xuanzhong Ruler in his hand, ready to kill him directly.

"Damn it, if you want my life, you won't get away with it either."

The Heavenly Demon King chose to self-destruct, knowing that this was the only option left.

By exploding his physical body, his soul might still be able to escape to heaven.

However, a force suddenly appeared and instantly crushed him into bloody foam.

"Xiao Yan, you're still not decisive enough. You can't give this kind of destined enemy any chance at all."

"Senior, I didn't expect to see you here too."

"It's just a coincidence. There's not much time left before the Pure Lotus Demon Flame is born, so I came to see if you've come out of seclusion."

That's right, he's already a half-saint, and not far from becoming a Dou Sheng.

You have actually reached that level, but the accumulation of power has not yet met the requirements.

You can choose to use elixirs to build up this missing foundation.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior."

"Ordinary pills are probably no longer effective for climbing from Half-Saint to Battle Saint."

Yao Chen poured cold water on Xiao Yan's enthusiasm, but what he said was true: pills that are useful to a half-saint must be at least grade nine pills.

"Teacher, no problem. I am now confident that I can refine a ninth-grade pill."

"Oh, so you've already surpassed your master, kid." "No, no!"

"Haha, what's there to be afraid of? I'm overjoyed that your alchemy skills surpass those of your master."

Lan Hong coughed lightly and gestured behind them with her eyes.

Behind Xiao Yan and Yao Chen, Hua Yu was looking at the master and disciple with an unfriendly expression.

I was seriously injured when I stopped Ice Venerable and Thunder Venerable.

Those two bastards didn't even bother to check on their injuries; they just started chatting amongst themselves.

"Aunt Hua, are you alright?"

As he spoke, Xiao Yan took out healing pills from his storage ring and handed them to Hua Yu.

Xiao Yan also gave Yao Chen a wink, signaling him to quickly coax him.

"Cough cough, Yu'er, I'm so glad you're alright. You shouldn't have been so impulsive just now..."

"Hmph, does that mean I was wrong?"

"No, no, of course not..."

He was a renowned medicine master in front of others, but in front of Zhong Huayu, he couldn't really be tough.

Xiao Yan and Lan Hong quietly left, leaving Yao Chen alone to comfort Hua Yu.

"Xiao Yan, what are your thoughts on the Starfall Pavilion being besieged by the Styx Alliance this time?"

"Alas, I do not have the strength of you, senior, to fully protect the people I cherish. It is my incompetence."

"You don't need to belittle yourself. Everyone starts from being weak. You are already stronger than 99% of people."

"But my opponent is that 1%!"

"Hehe, aren't you overcomplicating things? You can choose to form an alliance to unify the forces in Zhongzhou."

This way you can focus entirely on improving your strength and preparing to deal with the Soul Clan.

"Can I form an alliance and unify the forces in Zhongzhou now?"

"You don't have a clear understanding of the strength of a half-saint, do you?"
That's true. You've encountered far too many high-level combatants, which has led to a misunderstanding of the strength of a demigod.

Apart from a few immortal old fogies, the semi-saints are the strongest fighting force in the entire Central Continent.

The Soul Palace has now been destroyed, and you have a very good relationship with the Pill Tower.

Of the two sects, the Heavenly Nether Sect has been destroyed, while the Flower Sect was originally an ally of the Starfall Pavilion.

Of the three valleys, your relationship with the Burning Flame Valley is quite good. The Sound Valley is indifferent to worldly affairs and can be ignored. The Ice Venerable of the Ice River Valley is dead and poses no threat that can be directly incorporated.

Needless to say, the Four Directions Pavilion is quite formidable, so forming a Central Continent Alliance would be very easy for you.

After listening to Lan Hong's analysis, Xiao Yan realized that it was indeed true.

In fact, as long as he persuades Danta, the formation of the alliance will be a done deal, and the other forces will not be able to object.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will go and tell my teacher right away."

Lan Hong shook her head. She was still impulsive and her temperament needed to be tempered.

A few days later, Xiao Yan, Yao Chen, and Hua Yu went to the Pill Tower together.

Lan Hong had already been a guest at the Pill Tower. Xuan Yi wanted to go there as soon as he learned that the Starfall Pavilion had been attacked by the Styx Alliance.

However, Xuan Kongzi told her that it was too late for her to rush there now, and that she should wait for news instead.

Sure enough, she was relieved after hearing the news of Starfall Pavilion's great victory.
