Battle Through the Heavens: Reap the Red Lotus Karmic Flame at the Start

The members of the Eldar can indeed enhance their combat power through their clan markings, but the Alliance members who came to launch this surprise attack were no pushovers either. After a brief moment of being caught off guard, they quickly regained their composure and each displayed their signature skills.

Facing Lingyuan, the Pill Tower Ancestor summoned a torrent of pills from his storage ring. These rare pills, at least of the seventh grade, transformed into a stream of medicine right in front of him. He then opened his mouth and inhaled, his cheeks bulging, but the consumed battle qi was instantly replenished.

As the medicinal fragrance emanating from his body grew stronger, the Pill Tower Ancestor stretched out his crystal-clear, soft, and smooth hands, and in a slightly unbalanced posture, received Ling Yuan's attack.

The sudden outburst from the Old Ancestor of the Pill Tower surprised even Qing Lin, who was his companion. Her bright green eyes dimmed again under her own control.

"roar!"

An angry dragon roar escaped from Zi Yan's throat, and a brilliant purple-gold light shone on her massive dragon body. This not only rapidly repaired her damaged dragon scales but also caused her aura to subtly rise during the battle, making her more and more courageous!

The enormous dragon claw slammed down on Ling Xuanmo. Ling Xuanmo received the blow, but found that Zi Yan's body was suddenly engulfed in flames.

"What's going on with the Heavenly Phoenix's flames?"

During this period, the Spirit Clan remained entrenched within the Spirit Realm, neither handling internal affairs nor showing any intention of further exploration. As a result, Ling Xuanmo was unaware that Zi Yan had obtained information about the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit.

The new Dragon Emperor, whom Ling Xuanmo had never met, had quite an impact on him.

The members of the Nine Netherworld Python clan had all trained with Qing Lin for this battle, and the power within them was gradually approaching the more powerful form of the Nine Netherworld Python. Now that their opponent had used their clan markings, they were openly displaying their progress. The chilling breath they exhaled became increasingly terrifying, greatly hindering the movements of their opponent, a powerful member of the Spirit Clan.

Elder Qingshan single-handedly stopped two Dou Sheng-level opponents, with Huoyun Ancestor unleashing his full power behind him.

The Fire Cloud Ancestor's aura continued to rise, and the three great beast fires simultaneously enhanced the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations, guiding the torrent of flames to be released from his hands.

It is the Heaven-Rank Battle Technique that Xiao Yan relies on—Ninefold Crimson Tide!

Today's battle was also very enjoyable for the Fire Cloud Ancestor. Due to his own injuries, not only has his strength not improved for many years, but he has also tried his best to keep a low profile and avoid fierce battles with others.

However, after Xiao Yan appeared, he continuously supplied pills to the Burning Flame Valley. At first, due to the limitation of the pill's grade, he had not yet been able to use them.

However, with the resurrection of the old alchemist and the opening of the alliance, the old alchemist, who was already considered a ninth-grade alchemist, made a special trip to Burning Flame Valley to treat the old sores on his body.

After a period of healing, the old wounds on Huoyun Patriarch's body had almost completely healed. Given his temperament, he naturally needed a worthy opponent to test his skills.

In this surprise attack on the Spirit Clan, as a peak one-star Dou Sheng, he volunteered to face a two-star Dou Sheng level expert. During the battle, Elder Qingshan of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan helped him withstand the pressure from the front. In the midst of the fierce battle, Ancestor Huoyun felt extremely satisfied.

At this moment, he unleashed the Ninefold Crimson Tide, its power immense. Relying on his familiarity with this innate fighting technique, he was momentarily no less powerful than Xiao Yan, who was stronger than him.

"I feel as if I've been reborn; this battle can be even more fierce!"

……

The only ones who showed signs of defeat were Qing Xianzi, Hua Xianzi, and Mu Yaoyin. They were already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and now that their opponents had used their clan markings, they were superior to them in every aspect, and they were in danger frequently.

Seeing this, the old apothecary knew that they absolutely could not wait any longer; if they continued to wait, that battlefield would collapse.

So he turned to He Ning beside him and said, "Elder He Ning, it's time for you to fill in!"

Without needing Yao Lao's explanation, He Ning knew exactly where he should go to help with his strength as a one-star Dou Sheng, and immediately flew out. Although He Ning's strength wasn't in combat, he was still a genuine Dou Sheng. With his intervention, the situation for the remaining three immediately improved, and in a four-on-three situation, they no longer had to worry about anyone being in mortal danger.

The old doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief. In terms of the overall battle situation, he could no longer gain the upper hand as he had at the beginning, but he had indeed stabilized the situation.

Even so, some still hold the upper hand.

Even though Ling Qingbai released her clan mark and her strength increased to the early stage of a three-star Dou Sheng, which was a full star higher than Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan still responded calmly.

No matter how fiercely Ling Qingbai attacked, Xiao Yan's aura remained as stable as a mountain, even carrying a faint sense of lingering power.

The roles of Ling Qingbai, who is more skilled in water combat, and Xiao Yan, who is more skilled in using fire, have been reversed, making the scene somewhat peculiar.

Faced with this situation, Xiao Yan remained calm and allowed Ling Qingbai to launch a fierce attack. After his journey to the Bodhi Ancient Tree, the amount of Dou Qi within him was far greater than that of other experts of the same level. The longer the battle of attrition dragged on, the more advantageous Xiao Yan would become.

His opponent, Ling Qingbai, did indeed reach the early stage of a three-star Dou Sheng after activating his clan mark. However, Xiao Yan was not without experience fighting against three-star Dou Sheng experts, such as the Western Dragon King of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, who was even a mid-stage three-star Dou Sheng expert.

More importantly, clan markings are not permanent; they will eventually run out of power, and Xiao Yan has not yet used his clan markings.

As Xiao Yan's opponent, Ling Qingbai also found it very troublesome. Forceful attacks were not his forte; he had used his clan mark hoping to use his level advantage to directly secure victory over Xiao Yan, but Xiao Yan showed no signs of running out of steam.

His offensive only slowed down slightly before Xiao Yan seized the opportunity to unleash two waves of Heaven-Rank Battle Techniques in quick succession, using Ninefold Crimson Tide and Crimson Sun Piercing the Sun in succession, once again firmly controlling the situation.

After Xiao Yan's attack, Ling Qingbai was once again caught in a dilemma. She had finally activated her clan mark, and in theory, she should have gained something. However, Xiao Yan seemed completely unfazed by this. If she chose to return to her comfort zone and defend and counterattack, then it would seem that her clan mark had been wasted.

Xiao Yan didn't care about that. Seeing that the situation had turned around, the Flame Glaze Beast, which had been constantly wandering around, unleashed its power again, besieging Ling Qingbai and continuously depleting his strength.

Regardless of the situation, Xiao Yan consistently controlled his battle qi consumption, still holding back many trump cards and conserving his strength. This was only the first half of this sneak attack; the true climax was yet to come.
