Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 166 One Move Decides the Victory

Behind the Yunlan Sect, just as Yunshan was plotting his next move, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran were locked in a fierce battle on the plaza. The aftershocks of their fight were so powerful that even most Dou Shi (Masters of the Battle Realm) couldn't withstand them.

"Boom!"

The situation at this time is completely different from that in the original work. Not only are the two people's fighting spirit levels much stronger than in the original work, but they have also experienced many battles in terms of combat experience.

After another clash, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran retreated a hundred meters from each other, panting heavily, their eyes sharply fixed on each other.

"Nalan Yanran, since we are evenly matched, why not settle the matter with a single move?"

Xiao Yan sensed the situation within his body, his expression unchanged, but inwardly he felt a sense of foreboding. "It seems Nalan Yanran's cultivation technique is at the advanced level of the Profound rank, and her cultivation level has already reached the Dou Ling realm. If this drags on any longer, the situation will be unfavorable for me!"

"Alright, let's end our feud with this final move!"

Having spent over a year training in the Monster Mountain Range, Nalan Yanran could see through Xiao Yan's intentions at a glance, but she was confident that Xiao Yan was no match for her.

"The Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire—Dragon Flame Transformation!"

Xiao Yan rapidly formed hand seals, finally unleashing his hidden trump card after holding back for so long. Earthy yellow flames rose, and Xiao Yan's aura surged. In just a brief moment, he surpassed the threshold of a nine-star Great Dou Master, and continued to rise.

"One-Star Battle Spirit!"

"Two-Star Battle Spirit!"

"hiss"

Around the plaza, many Yunlan Sect disciples gasped in astonishment. What kind of secret technique was this that could improve someone so much in such a short time?

Seeing this, Yun Leng, acting as the referee, looked grim but showed no concern. Sure enough, Nalan Yanran's next action confirmed Yun Leng's expression. Her face turned serious, she plunged her sword into the ground, and her hands quickly formed hand seals.

"drink!"

As Nalan Yanran gave a soft shout, the wind-attribute battle qi surrounding her surged rapidly and then became violently violent.

"Two-Star Battle Spirit!"

Upon seeing that both sides had reached the two-star Dou Ling realm, the Yunlan Sect disciples watching couldn't help but retreat a hundred meters. Everyone knew that both sides were about to unleash their ultimate secret techniques.

"Buzz"

Suddenly, Nalan Yanran slowly rose into the air, her long sword emitting a dazzling light, and finally slowly pointed at Xiao Yan below.

"The Ultimate Wind - Sunset's Radiance!"

"Hahaha, the young sect leader is sure to win this time. This is our sect's most powerful fighting technique. Although Xiao Yan's talent is indeed outstanding, he has no talent or background, so he doesn't have any means to deal with the young sect leader's sure-kill technique."

"Yes, yes, but Xiao Yan's talent is terrifying. Although he lost today, with his talent, he's destined to become a Dou Huang!"

After someone said something, the Yunlan Sect disciples watching around the square fell silent. To be fair, apart from the young sect leader, there was no one else in the Yunlan Sect who could fight Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan, however, paid no attention to these discussions. He stared solemnly at Nalan Yanran above him, the energy gathered in the long sword in her hand was truly terrifying!

"Teacher, help me!"

Xiao Yan murmured to himself, and Yao Chen, who had been hidden in the ring, sighed almost imperceptibly upon hearing this. A pale white flame then slowly floated out from the ring.

"This is?"

Upon seeing the flame, both Gu He and Fa Ma were shocked, finding it unbelievable that this was yet another strange flame. It should be noted that during the Alchemy Competition, Xiao Yan had already revealed the Wind Fury Dragon Flame in his quest to win the championship, attracting everyone's attention.

However, the major powers in the capital all knew that Xiao Yan had undergone training from Lin Feng before participating in the conference, proving that the two had a close relationship. Since Lin Feng hadn't made a move, many alchemists, though extremely envious, dared not risk offending Lin Feng by forcibly seizing Xiao Yan's strange fire.

But at this moment, a second strange fire appeared in Xiao Yan's hand. Judging from its appearance, it was clearly the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which was ranked eleventh!

Looking at the strange flames emanating from Xiao Yan's body, Gu He's eyes burned with intense heat, as if he were already itching to act. Fa Ma's expression, however, was somewhat strange. Although he was shocked, he didn't feel any heat; instead, he looked like he was seeing an old friend or someone he admired.

Fortunately, everyone around was drawn to the strange fire on Xiao Yan's body. Although Lin Feng noticed it and knew the reason based on the description in the original work, he did not want to say anything.

"Bang!"

After the appearance of the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, which had attracted everyone's attention at the Alchemist Conference, reappeared in everyone's sight. Xiao Yan held the two strange flames in his hands, one in each hand. Then, to everyone's disbelief, Xiao Yan suddenly clashed his hands together, causing the two strange flames to collide.

"What!?"

Yun Leng suddenly let out an incredulous shout, and then the battle qi wings on his back instantly unfolded, and he rapidly ascended into the air.

"Disciples of Yunlan Sect, heed my command! Form the Cloud and Smoke Covering the Sun Formation!"

At Yun Leng's command, the numerous Yunlan Sect disciples, disregarding their shock, rapidly formed hand seals, and within a few breaths, a massive array enveloped the plaza. Seeing this, Yun Yun, who had been watching the scene closely, also surged with battle qi, intending to protect the two at the crucial moment.

"What?! It's actually this strange flame!" Just as Xiao Yan used the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, Protector Lu, who had been watching the area from the back mountain of the Yunlan Sect, suddenly shouted, "Hehehe, not only have we gained the souls of three sixth-grade alchemists today, but it seems there's another great harvest to come!"

"Yunshan, you must capture Xiao Yan today! This protector will assist you in the attack!"

"Buddha's Wrathful Lotus!"

Xiao Yan was naturally unaware of what had happened on the back mountain. At this moment, he was completely focused on controlling the fire lotus in his hand. This was the first time he had used two different flames in this move. Although he knew it was extremely dangerous, hadn't all those days and nights over the past three years been for this moment?

"Buzz"

Just as everyone thought the fusion of the two strange flames would cause an explosion, a strange fluctuation suddenly emanated. Everyone focused their attention and saw an exceptionally beautiful fire lotus slowly rotating in Xiao Yan's palm, but its power was extremely terrifying.

"Yanran is in danger now!"

As the fire lotus took shape, Nalan Jie, who had been watching closely, clenched his fists tightly, his face grim. Lin Feng glanced at Nalan Jie as if sensing something, but made no comment, continuing to sense the fire lotus in Xiao Yan's palm.

"How wondrous! These strange flames, which should have exploded upon meeting, are now fusing together with remarkable stability. I must say, they truly live up to the title of the Flame Emperor!"

Regardless of what happened outside, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran in the arena attacked each other with perfect coordination.

In everyone's eyes, the beautiful fire lotus collided violently with a tremendous beam of light.

"Boom!"
