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

The power of a Seven-Star Dou Sheng, once unleashed without reservation, is a spectacle that shakes the heavens and the earth. The Dou Qi of heaven and earth instantly obeyed Gu Yu's command, and layers upon layers of energy, like clouds obscuring the sun, surged down upon Xiao Yan and his group!

That's how powerful a Dou Sheng is; once they make a move, they possess the power to destroy a person in an instant.

At this moment, even Mu Yaoyin and the Dou Sheng powerhouses of the Nine Netherworld Python clan trembled and couldn't maintain their balance after this attack. And this was only the impact of Gu Yu's attack; the gap between Dou Sheng was simply too vast!

Seeing all this, Yao Ming also stepped in to block the remaining energy waves in front of everyone. With his strength, doing so was quite easy. However, Yao Ming was also filled with panic. His premonition was correct; if Gu Yu wanted to, he really could wipe everyone here out!

The world has lost its color, and amidst the raging waves of battle qi, even protecting themselves has become a problem. Whether this situation can be resolved depends entirely on the sudden appearance of Xiao Yan's teacher.

While everyone else paled at the sight of Yao Ming's attack, Yao Lao remained perfectly still, his figure appearing extremely small in the face of the overwhelming tide.

Then, the old doctor made a move.

As the old man looked at the truly earth-shattering energy wave, he remained calm and composed. He simply raised his right hand, then spread his five fingers and made a loose fist.

There was no burst of fighting spirit, but it was still astonishing—it was pure, ultimate soul power! Xiao Yan was all too familiar with this. Back when his strength was insufficient, it was only through Yao Lao's soul power that he was able to overcome powerful enemies in many perilous situations.

The next moment, a beam of soul light shot out from Yao Lao's fingertip. Ordinary soul power is invisible; its existence can only be sensed due to its immense strength. But Yao Lao's soul power had taken form, shooting out like a dragon. Although it lacked the terrifying aura of Gu Yu commanding heaven and earth, those with keen eyes could clearly see that Yao Lao's attack was no less powerful than Gu Yu's!

scoff-

The pillar of soul light and the tide of battle energy finally collided, producing a deafening sound.

The magnificent tide of battle aura was directly pierced through by the pillar of soul light. And Yao Lao's actions were not yet finished. Within the pale white pillar of soul light, a chilling white flame burned and rose up.

Although it was flame, it wasn't hot at all; instead, it was chilling enough to freeze the soul. In an instant, the ice spread! The battle qi wave suddenly began to freeze from its core, which had been pierced by the pillar of soul light, and the freezing speed was extremely fast. In just a few breaths, the battle qi wave was forcibly frozen into a huge ice sculpture of a wave that stretched across the sky!

Lifelike, like the work of a master craftsman. But anyone who saw it with their own eyes knows how terrifying the wave was just moments before.

This attack took everyone by surprise, and everyone present was shocked by the massive battle that could turn the tide of battle so easily.

"It actually... blocked it?!" Yao Ming was the first to exclaim in surprise. He looked like he had seen a ghost and couldn't understand this illogical scene at all.

How easy was it for this person to defeat Gu Yu's attack?

Seeing all this, Xiao Yan finally smiled with relief. He knew very well in his heart: his teacher had truly returned!

Whether it was the Heavenly Phoenix Clan or the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, Xiao Yan was deeply grateful for their sacrifices, knowing that they had paid a heavy price to reach this ancient clan. However, only with the arrival of Elder Yao did Xiao Yan truly relax; Elder Yao's presence was the only reliable support he could truly depend on!

After exchanging a glance, Qinglin and Little Fairy Doctor both breathed a sigh of relief. Neither of them wanted to see Xiao Yan give up the strength he had painstakingly cultivated over the years.

After a brief silence, the frozen, hundred-foot-tall iceberg of Dou Qi finally succumbed to the destructive energy remaining inside and emitted a loud, unbearable roar!

A series of sharp, shattering sounds rang out as the massive ice sculpture exploded. It instantly transformed into numerous ice crystals, which then reformed their fighting spirit in mid-air.

Gu Yu's face was once again filled with shock, and his body trembled slightly. Gu Yu felt the surging and changing battle qi within him, and the impact on his heart was even stronger than before!

He had initially thought that it was impossible for a nameless Dou Sheng powerhouse he didn't even recognize to suddenly appear in Zhongzhou; perhaps it was just some kind of illusion. However, he still suffered a loss after just one strike. That all-pervasive soul power not only broke through his attack but also struck him. Although he had suppressed it, it showed that the person in front of him was definitely not weaker than him.

"And this guy is using soul power, could it be that he has already...?"

The old apothecary simply flicked his raised right hand, as if he were merely brushing off some dust. His unassuming demeanor instilled in everyone behind him an unprecedented sense of security.

"The three immortals of the ancient clan were renowned far and wide, but now it seems they are nothing special." The old doctor's voice was not loud, but every word struck Gu Yu's heart.

The ancient clan members all wore extremely grim expressions, but they dared not move rashly in the face of Elder Yao. Even a Seven-Star Dou Sheng had not fared well against him; for them to go up against him would be tantamount to suicide.

Faced with Yao Lao's taunts, Gu Yu didn't attack. Instead, he stopped what he was doing, finding himself in a difficult situation. On one hand, he still couldn't gauge Yao Lao's strength. Although he hadn't gone all out yet, judging from Yao Lao's nonchalant demeanor, Yao Lao probably hadn't used his full power either! Gu Yu himself had no confidence in whether he could defeat Yao Lao.

On the other hand, the fact that no one else was making a move despite the intense fighting on his side plunged him into despair.

"Are we really just going to let these guys leave the Ancient Clan so brazenly?" Gu Yu thought to himself. He was actually unwilling to accept that things would end like this.

"What, you're not going to fight anymore?" The old doctor's casual remark plunged Gu Yu into an even greater dilemma.

The strange atmosphere was abruptly broken by an external force the next moment.

A cold yet crisp sword sound suddenly rang out, followed by a clear and heroic female voice that drifted from afar.

"Senior Gu Yu, this junior, Jiang Yunyan, has come to seek your guidance!"
