Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 231 Holy Sect!

"Saintess!!"

"Damn bastard, don't you dare hurt the saintess!"

"Protect the saintess!!"

A mouthful of blood spurted from Qinglin's mouth, and Qinglin's aura plummeted, his face turning deathly pale.

Countless powerful figures from the Heavenly Serpent Palace below were furious and rushed forward to protect Qing Lin, their eyes bloodshot. However, such a massive emotional outburst only created openings for them, and they were subsequently severely injured by the powerful figures from the Lion Nether Sect.

"Hehehe, come with me!"

With a sinister grin, the Eighth Heavenly Venerable reached out his withered hand to grab Qinglin. In an instant, countless people from the Heavenly Serpent Palace on the battlefield were thrown into a panic.

Qinglin gritted his teeth, and the space in front of him suddenly distorted. Then, more than a dozen figures appeared out of thin air, and with a roar, they unleashed more than a dozen fierce and incomparable gusts of wind towards the Eight Heavenly Venerables.

"To put up a stubborn resistance."

Prisoner sneered, and with a flick of his sleeve, the dozen or so figures shattered into pieces, filling the sky with blood mist.

Most of these puppets were at the Dou Huang level, captured before Qing Lin was infused with Dou Qi. Against an existence like the Prisoner, they were like ants trying to shake a tree.

In the blink of an eye, Prisoner's figure appeared in front of Qinglin, his withered hand reaching out to grab Qinglin.

"Saintess!!"

Green Cloud let out a mournful cry, but just as Prisoner's hand was about to fall, a chill suddenly rose from the depths of Prisoner's heart for no apparent reason.

The next moment, an even more withered hand appeared suddenly in front of Qinglin, blocking the hand of the prisoner.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying, suffocating aura erupted, and before the prisoner's incredulous eyes, a palm struck the prisoner's body.

Prisoner's figure was suddenly sent flying backward, crashing into the Heavenly Serpent Fortress with a loud bang!

"What?!"

"How is this possible!"

In an instant, countless eyes fell upon the black-robed figure in mid-air.

The figure stood indifferently before Qing Lin. His seemingly thin body was now like an impenetrable fortress, causing countless powerful figures from the Heavenly Serpent Palace to breathe a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, a figure appeared behind him like a ghost, and a sharp palm strike slammed into his back.

"Be careful!"

The sudden attack startled many people, who hurriedly shouted.

"Bang!"

The shout had barely faded when a deep, muffled sound suddenly rang out. To everyone's astonishment, the Lion Nether Sect expert, whose strength was at least at the Dou Zun level, was sent flying backward without warning. He spat out mouthfuls of blood, and his entire body collapsed, killing him instantly!

This terrifying power caused the entire battle to fall silent. Countless gazes were fixed on the black-robed figure, filled with astonishment and uncertainty.

He could kill a Dou Zun powerhouse with ease.

What kind of strength is this?!

"Luckily, I made it in time."

Suddenly, a voice that many people from the Heavenly Serpent Palace found somewhat familiar rang out. Immediately afterward, the space around Qing Lin distorted, and several figures emerged from it.

The leader, dressed in a bright green gauze dress, attracted countless gazes with her graceful figure. Her stunningly beautiful face also caused a hint of uncertainty to appear in the eyes of many people from the Heavenly Serpent Palace.

"You, you are... the Green-Robed Elder?"

"It really is Elder Green Robe! It's been so long!"

"What do you mean 'long time no see'? When the Holy Maiden came to my Heavenly Serpent Palace, she brought with her the Elder's token. I didn't expect it was Elder Green who had returned."

Upon seeing the green-clad figure suddenly appear above the fortress, many people around were momentarily stunned. After a moment, a surge of ecstatic joy suddenly emerged, and various different greetings suddenly resounded.

Although several years had passed, the green-clad figure seemed to have remained unchanged over the years, and was recognized at a glance.

The man in green smiled calmly at the cheers: "Long time no see, everyone."

"The Green-Clad Sister, and Little Fairy Doctor..."

Qinglin spoke in a low voice, her eyes instantly turning red as she looked at the familiar figure before her.

"If my men hadn't received the news and come to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion to find you in advance for fear that something might have happened to you, you really wouldn't have told us anything."

Little Fairy Doctor scoffed and pinched Qinglin's cheek: "If something happens to you, how am I supposed to explain it to the young master?!"

"I……"

Qinglin lowered her head: "I'm sorry."

"Alright, Little Fairy Doctor, Qinglin probably didn't expect that the Lion Nether Sect would have a Soul Hall expert. Besides, didn't we just happen to be there?"

The woman in green spoke softly, comforting the two little girls.

Meanwhile, Lion Heaven, atop the fortress, brandished his golden blade: "What the hell? When did two mere Dou Zong level girls become so arrogant and talk so freely right above me?!"

"Go to hell!"

The golden sword was swung, and a chilling blade aura roared out, but it was directly blocked by the black-robed figure.

"Be careful, this guy's cultivation level is no less than mine."

Black mist gathered, and Prisoner appeared beside Lion Sky with a solemn expression, speaking in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Lion Sky's expression froze.

If he's not below the level of the Prisoner, then he must be a Nine-Star Dou Zun, or even a peak Dou Zun level expert!?

But he still said ruthlessly, "So what if he's a peak Dou Zun level expert? Lord Prisoner, as long as you can hold him off for a moment, we can slaughter the entire Heavenly Serpent Palace!"

"Slaughter the entire Heavenly Serpent Palace?"

The woman in green turned around, looking down at the prison and Shi Tian and the others. She raised her jade hand, and a jade token suddenly appeared in her hand: "I want to see how you will slaughter the Heavenly Serpent Palace."

"The Sacred Jade Token is here, but where is the sect-protecting puppet?!"

As the man in green shouted, a tremendous energy surge suddenly erupted in the space behind him, followed by a series of whooshing sounds.

Then, everyone saw nearly a dozen figures in the sky, stepping through the void like shooting stars, appearing on the city wall in a few flashes.

"A Dou Zun level expert?!"

When these dozens of figures appeared on the city wall, the experts from both the Heavenly Serpent Palace and the Lion Nether Sect gasped in shock. They discovered that the weakest among this large group of people was a high-level Dou Zong, and there were nearly ten Dou Zun experts among them!

Most importantly, the auras emanating from these Dou Zun powerhouses were extremely powerful, and several of them were no weaker than high-level Dou Zun like Shi Tian.

"What a terrifying lineup!"

The people from the Heavenly Serpent Palace, including Green Cloud, stared in disbelief at the figure floating in mid-air.

This power was no weaker than that of the Heavenly Serpent Palace. Coupled with the puppet that was comparable to the peak of the Dou Zun, the green-clothed guy actually summoned a terrifying power that was enough to sweep across the entire Northwest Continent with a wave of his hand!

Moreover, what she held in her hand...

Green Cloud gazed at the jade token in Green Robe's hand, feeling that it looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

The prisoner who was originally standing next to Lion King suddenly narrowed his eyes and let out a gasp of surprise when he saw the jade token and heard the words from the green-clothed man.

"The Holy Rain Sect?! Lin Ran?!"

"I didn't expect you to know about us... Wait, you're the Soul Palace Celestial Venerable who failed to assassinate the Sect Master and then fled?!"

The man in green squinted and immediately recognized the prisoner's identity.

"Very well, it really is your Holy Rain Sect. I never expected to run into you in the Heavenly Serpent Palace!"

The Eight Heavenly Venerables' faces were contorted in agony, as if recalling some unbearably humiliating event. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they snarled, "The humiliation Lin Ran inflicted on me in the past, I will avenge today! Everyone, lend me your strength!"

"laugh!"

As the Eighth Heavenly Venerable coldly uttered his words, a wave of energy emanated from the black mist behind him, and three figures flashed over, finally standing beside him.

His sinister gaze swept over the green-clad group, and he chuckled eerily, "All of you are stunning beauties, Prisoner Land. Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil... Oh, that aura, could it be the legendary Calamity Poison Body?"

"This aura is powerful; this Calamity Poison Body is no ordinary being. It seems we'll have a great harvest today!"

"Hehehe, these girls are all quite nice. If I take them back as soul slaves, wouldn't I be living a life of pleasure every night?"

The people on the fortress changed their expressions slightly upon seeing the three who suddenly appeared, clearly sensing their terrifying aura.

"Be careful! These three are all just as powerful as the previous one!"

Sensing the presence of the three people, Qing Lin's pupils constricted sharply, and he immediately issued a warning.

These three individuals are no less powerful than those in Prison Land. Although they are slightly weaker, they are all eight-star Dou Zun level experts.

"Don't worry."

Little Fairy Doctor gently patted Qinglin's little hand, giving her a reassuring look: "Today, even if a 'Saint' comes, we won't be afraid!"

"good!"

The man in green sneered, "Back then, you dared to ambush and kill our sect leader, and we could only watch from the sidelines. We never expected to run into you again today. It seems even Heaven wants me to seek justice for our sect leader!"

"Human puppets, kill them all!"

At the command, the puppet standing in front of Qinglin trembled slightly, then looked in the direction where Qiudi and the others were, a flash of blood-red light in its eyes.

The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared.

"What?!"

The four Soul Palace Celestial Venerables, including the one from Prison Land, were all startled, and chilling black mist surged out from their bodies.

Before they could make any move, the puppet called "Human Puppet" was already in front of two of them. Its withered hands slapped out, and two terrifying energy waves burst out rapidly.

"boom!!"

With a single strike, the two Soul Hall experts, both at the level of Eight-Star Dou Zun, were blasted away and crashed heavily to the ground, suffering severe injuries.

The eight Heavenly Venerables imprisoned in the land, along with another powerful Soul Palace expert, had their pupils shrink in shock.

They tried to make a move, but the puppet was even faster!

With a single palm strike, the Soul Palace expert was also severely injured. Prisoner wanted to retreat, but his speed was no match for the human puppet.

"This is impossible. Your cultivation level... wait, this aura..."

The prisoner was suddenly startled, as if he had realized something: "You're a human scorpion?!"

The puppet remained unmoved and slapped the prisoner's head with its palm.

Faced with the puppet's ruthless and lightning-fast attack, Prisoner was also filled with horror.

He hadn't expected Lin Ran to directly refine his third master, the human scorpion, into a puppet, but this wasn't the time to think about that. Without the slightest hesitation, layers of frost appeared on the surface of Prisoner's body, rapidly forming a layer of icy armor.

"Bang!"

The puppet's palm strike, like a thunderbolt, slammed into the prisoner's body. The terrifying force shattered the ice armor on the prisoner's body.

"Pfft!"

Despite the ice armor providing protection, the residual force of the wind still caused De Qiu to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Without the slightest hesitation, Prisoner turned and ran.

This guy is definitely a puppet made by the human scorpion. His cultivation level is at least at the third level, or even the peak of the fourth level Dou Zun. He is no weaker than the Four Heavenly Venerables Blood River back then.

He was no match for such a terrifying creature.

"Human puppet, don't let him escape! Drink his blood, drain his soul!"

Upon seeing the prison and attempting to flee, the woman in green spoke coldly, uttering chilling words that sent shivers down one's spine.

This seemingly easy-going Elder Green always puts in 120% effort when it comes to anything related to Lin Ran. And when it comes to the guys from Prison Land who used to try to kill Lin Ran, Elder Green is even less likely to let them go!

Upon receiving the green-clad man's command, the red light in the puppet's eyes intensified, especially after hearing commands like "bloodlust, soul absorption," the puppet even became somewhat excited and restless!

In the blink of an eye, the puppet's figure appeared in front of Prisoner, and its withered hands pierced through his flesh in Prisoner's incredulous gaze.

"Bloodlust..."

A hoarse voice came from the puppet's mouth, and Prisoner's body trembled violently. He was horrified to discover that the blood energy in his body was rapidly draining away and being continuously devoured by the puppet.

In the blink of an eye, his aura plummeted. His cultivation level, which was at the peak of the eight-star Dou Zun, dropped directly to the six-star level, and then further to the level of the three-star Dou Zun.

The speed at which his cultivation level plummeted was truly terrifying, but this was only the beginning.

As the blood energy was continuously devoured, the cultivation level of the prisoner decreased, until he reached the level of a one-star Dou Zun. At that moment, the red light in the puppet's eyes flashed again.

"Soul Absorption..."

"No, no, no!"

Prisoner wanted to struggle, but he was tightly restrained and restricted by the puppet, so how could he break free?

The dense soul power was frantically devoured by the puppet. Within minutes, a peak eight-star Dou Zun expert vanished without a trace, leaving not even a trace of his soul or blood.

"roar!!"

In contrast, consider the human puppet.

After devouring the prison, the human puppet suddenly let out a low roar, and a terrifying aura surged out, causing everyone present to suffocate!

The three Soul Clan Celestial Venerables who had been seriously injured earlier were even more terrified!

"Peak of the sixth-level Dou Zun... This, this is impossible!"

"very good!"

Looking at the human puppet whose strength had greatly increased, and then at the Soul Palace Celestial Venerable with a face full of terror, as well as the people of the Lion Nether Sect.

The man in green took a deep breath, raised the Sacred Jade Token high in his hand, and his cold voice echoed in the sky.

"Guardian puppets, heed my command! Suppress all intruders!"
