Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 294 The Defeat of the Soul Palace!

Lin Ran's voice was utterly calm, but to the three members of the Soul Palace, it was like the death knell tolling for them.

The next moment, pinkish-gold flames rose from the palm of his right hand, and the Pure World Sacred Heart Flame roared out, soaring into the sky with a whoosh, and then began to writhe rapidly under the gaze of many eyes.

As the pink-gold flames writhed, they gradually released terrifying temperatures, turning this place into a steam oven. Even with the spatial barrier blocking it, the entire Fallen Mountain Range remained incredibly hot, with peaks occasionally spontaneously combusting without fire, sending thick smoke soaring into the sky!

Some of the weaker individuals also experienced their internal fighting spirit become scorching hot at this moment.

Some people experiencing severe emotional fluctuations were even more horrified to discover that their bodies were gradually heating up.

The Purifying Lotus Demon Flame possesses the peculiar ability to ignite the human body without fire by using human emotions as a catalyst. The Purifying Sacred Heart Flame not only contains the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, but also the Fallen Heart Flame, a flame that has a great restraining effect on the mind.

Therefore, the appearance of this scene caused countless people to retreat in horror until they reached the edge of the mountain range, at which point the burning pain in their bodies subsided considerably, and everyone was filled with shock.

"As expected of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, it's terrifying to this extent..."

Around the mountain peak, some sect elders also had solemn and envious expressions. Fighting against an opponent who possessed such a strange fire, even before making a move, they had to devote some of their attention to resisting the high temperature of the flame. That terrifying temperature could easily burn even battle qi.

"It wasn't just the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame; the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame I saw in the Demon Flame Space was pink, not pink-gold."

"Legend has it that the Holy Sect Master Lin Ran possesses a fusion of various strange flames, called the Holy Golden Meteor Heart Flame. Now it seems that this flame is a product of the Holy Golden Meteor Heart Flame fused with the Pure Lotus Demon Flame!"

"Hiss... Just how many different flames are there in this fusion? Can an ordinary person fuse so many different flames?!"

Countless people were deeply moved, but what shocked even more people was Lin Ran's cultivation level.

He stood still and remained unharmed despite the attacks from Hun Qianbai and the other two.

Lin Ran's cultivation level... has probably far surpassed Hun Qianbai's, reaching an incredibly terrifying realm.

"A Seven-Star Dou Sheng..." The Pill Tower Ancestor looked at the scene in the space, his expression becoming increasingly complex: "This kid truly is someone with great fortune..."

Within the space.

Soul Thousand Hundred, Black Soul Elder, and the Hall Master of the Soul Palace stared intently at the churning pink-gold flame, their eyes filled with solemnity.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, the pink-gold flames gradually condensed into a pink-gold palm print. Strange flame patterns surrounded the palm print, dazzlingly bright. It was Lin Ran's signature move, a Heaven-rank fighting skill, the Great Sun Holy Yang Palm.

"If the three of you can withstand one of my blows, this matter will be over."

Lin Ran's calm voice echoed throughout the space: "If they can't bear it... then I can only mourn for the three of them for a moment on behalf of the Soul Palace and the Soul Clan."

"Lin Ran..."

The three members of the Soul Palace stared intently at Lin Ran. The terrifying aura emanating from him, as immovable as a mountain, clearly demonstrated Lin Ran's current cultivation level.

The Seven Star Dou Sheng's palm strike...

"boom!!!"

As Lin Ran's shout fell, the pink-gold palm print in the sky immediately emitted a series of buzzing sounds. The next moment, the palm print shot out with a hiss, carrying a streak of pink-gold light, and crashed towards the three people from the Soul Palace.

This pink-gold palm print was initially only as thick as an arm, but the moment it was unleashed, it swelled in the wind and transformed into a massive object tens of feet long!

"laugh!"

As soon as the pink and gold palm print was formed, it shot out at a terrifying speed. Wherever it passed, even space itself was shattered, revealing countless dark and twisted spatial cracks. Even space itself could not withstand the power of this palm. Wherever the palm print passed, it seemed as if all objects were turned into nothingness!

In the blink of an eye, the palm print arrived in front of the three members of the Soul Palace.

Without the slightest hesitation, the three exchanged glances and released their fighting spirit without reservation, which converged into streams of dark energy.

Energy converged to form a barrier, attempting to block it, but the powerful battle aura surrounding him was visibly dissolving!

The Golden Emperor's Heaven-Burning Flame can burn away all battle energy, and the Pure World Sacred Heart Flame naturally possesses this ability!

Although the three members of the Soul Palace were also continuously releasing their battle qi, they still couldn't keep up with the speed at which the battle qi dissipated.

This Great Sun Holy Yang Palm, after Lin Ran fused with the Pure World Holy Heart Flame, simultaneously possessed the explosive power of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the scorching power of the Fallen Heart Flame, the incinerating power of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, and the purifying power of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame. The Soul Palace's battle qi was a perfect match for the Pure World Holy Heart Flame.

As the three members of the Soul Palace watched their battle aura rapidly dissipate, the expressions of the powerful figures in this world also changed, their eyes filled with a hint of fear as they glanced at the pinkish-gold palm print.

"At this rate, the Soul Palace won't be able to hold out for long."

The group exchanged glances, all thinking the same thing: if the fighting spirit within them were completely melted away by the fire, that would be the moment when the three members of the Soul Palace were utterly defeated.

"This can't go on..."

Hun Qianbai gritted his teeth and shouted, "With the strength of the three of us, there is absolutely no possibility of blocking this palm strike. If we want to stop it, we can only rely on the power of that lord."

"Soul Demon, let's both channel our battle aura into Extinction Life. Extinction Life, you unleash your true power and use it to its fullest extent. Perhaps we still have a glimmer of hope!"

"good!"

Without hesitation, the Soul Demon Elder immediately channeled all his battle qi into the Soul Palace Master's body.

Hun Qianbai also roared angrily, condensing all his cultivation into a cloud of black mist, which then merged into Hun Miesheng's body.

This action immediately left everyone puzzled.

Hun Miesheng's strength is the weakest among the three. However, considering that he is a five-star Dou Sheng in the early stage, even if it were really necessary to withstand Lin Ran's attack, it should be Hun Qianbai who should be the one to withstand it. How could it be the weakest Hun Miesheng?

Everyone present was puzzled, but Hun Miesheng didn't have time to pay attention to that.

At this moment, his entire body was being infused with a massive amount of battle qi, and even the sleeves of his robes were being swollen and fluttering due to the battle qi, causing his aura to surge wildly.

"The big day..."

"Holy Sun Palm!"

The moment the two of them poured all their fighting spirit into Hun Miesheng's body, the magnificent pink-gold palm print, accompanied by Lin Ran's indifferent voice, crashed down, bringing with it a destructive force that slammed into Hun Miesheng, the Hall Master of the Soul Palace, who was bearing the brunt of the attack!

"Bang!"

A deep and loud explosion suddenly rang out, and the terrifying wave of flames that spread outwards caused even some Dou Sheng powerhouses to change their expressions drastically, subconsciously taking several steps back, for fear of being touched in the slightest.

"Hit!"

Upon seeing this, Yao Chen and the others were slightly delighted. With such a powerful attack, if the three members of the Soul Palace were to take a direct hit from that palm, they would probably be severely injured even if they didn't die!

However, the old patriarch of the Pill Tower had his gaze fixed on the spot where the pink and gold palm print had exploded within the space, his brows furrowed.

"Has the battle been decided...?"

"It's hard to say. Although Lin Ran is powerful, he is, after all, a veteran expert of the Soul Palace. He inevitably has some special background and trump cards."

"That's true..."

All eyes were fixed on that space, and whispers rose and fell.

Lin Ran's move was too powerful; if there are no surprises, the battle should be decided.

The Soul Palace side was also somewhat silent, clearly not expecting Lin Ran to be able to unleash such terrifying strength in this battle.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the terrifying aftershocks of energy slowly dissipated, and the pink and gold flames filled the area. Suddenly, a faint sound was heard.

"It actually blocked it...?"

Hearing this soft sound, Lin Ran frowned slightly. He hadn't held back at all with this palm strike.

"Waaah..."

Shortly after that sound rang out, a dark shadow appeared and disappeared in the center of the spreading pink and gold flames. Just as it appeared, an extremely strange suction force suddenly swept out and pulled away the pink and gold flames that were spreading around it!

"It's the Lord of the Soul Hall?!"

"He actually absorbed the Pure Lotus Demon Flame into his body?"

"Are you looking for death?!"

The dark figure's actions immediately drew a great deal of commotion, clearly finding his behavior quite unbelievable.

"They've got some nerve..."

Lin Ran's gaze fell upon the three figures that emerged after the flames slowly dissipated, his brows furrowing slightly.

In this space, there are three figures with different appearances.

The Soul Demon Elder and Soul Thousand Hundred collapsed to the ground, looking weak. Their cultivation levels plummeted, and they had almost lost one-tenth of their strength.

However, the focus is still on the Soul Hall Master at the very front.

At this moment, the Lord of the Soul Palace looked extremely strange. He stood motionless, and black flames with a strange devouring power seeped out from his eyes.

The energy in the surrounding world was being continuously drawn into its body and then completely devoured by that strange power!

"Hahaha, it blocked it! It really blocked it!" Seeing this, the old man of the Soul Demon laughed loudly, his eyes filled with wild joy.

"It actually works!"

Hun Qianbai also breathed a sigh of relief, a sinister smile appearing on his face.

"Lin Ran, your strange fire has fused with the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, making it incredibly powerful. However, my Soul Clan possesses a strange fire that is even stronger!"

Hun Qianbai laughed loudly, and along with his laughter, a strange black flame suddenly burst forth from the motionless body of the Soul Palace Master.

Black flames churned, vaguely coalescing into a human face, from which bursts of devouring power erupted.

When that black flame with a human face appeared, the eyes of many people present suddenly shrank to the size of pinholes.

"This, this is!"

"Second on the list of extraordinary flames... the Void Devouring Flame?!"

"Void Devouring Flame... How... How is this possible?!"

"The Soul Palace actually possesses the Void Devouring Flame?!"

Many powerful figures present immediately recognized the strange black flames, and their faces were filled with extreme shock as they murmured in disbelief.

Everyone trembled violently, and even someone like the Old Ancestor of the Pill Tower had a solemn expression.

Void Devouring Flame, ranked second on the Strange Flame Ranking.

This fire is born from nothingness, without form or shape to be found or grasped. From a certain perspective, the Void Devouring Flame can be considered a rather strange existence. The Void Devouring Flame is known as something that devours the heavens and the earth, possessing the ability to devour all things!

"The Soul Palace... actually possesses the Void Devouring Flame..."

"They've been hiding it so well..."

Disbelief rose and fell in disbelief, while within the space, Hun Qianbai coldly sneered at Lin Ran: "Sect Leader Lin, do you still stand by what you just said?"

It was virtually impossible for the three of them to defeat Lin Ran, a Seven-Star Dou Sheng. They were already at their limit, barely managing to withstand one of Lin Ran's attacks with the help of the power of the Void Devouring Flame. Now, of course, they had to seize the loopholes in Lin Ran's words.

"My word is my bond, and I stand by it. Of course, it stands." Lin Ran smiled calmly. "However, please don't be hasty, sir. Do you really think you can withstand this blow from Hun Miesheng?"

"Wh-what?!"

These words immediately caused the smiles on the faces of the Soul Demon Elder and Soul Qianbai to freeze.

"Buzz..."

Suddenly, an unusual fluctuation of battle aura emerged from Hun Miesheng's body.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Hun Miesheng!

The energy fluctuation was not weak, and it grew stronger with each passing breath. In the end, Hun Miesheng's face and body suddenly turned black, and a burst of black flames suddenly overflowed from his body, directly collapsing and shattering, turning into wisps of black fire snakes that dissipated into the world.

"How...how is this possible?!"

Hun Qianbai's face was filled with disbelief, but before the shock on his face could subside, the energy fluctuations became even stronger, and Hun Miesheng let out a sound of extreme pain.

The next moment, Hun Miesheng's body was like shattered glass, with countless dense cracks appearing on its surface. Then, endless energy burst out from those cracks, and an unimaginable violent energy suddenly erupted from his body!

"Extinction!!"

"Boom!"

Amidst the agonizing screams and cries of the Soul Hall Master, a massive firestorm swept across the sky. The terrifying heat even shattered the temporary space Lin Ran had created, and the intense heat caused the once-damp earth to dry out and begin to crack.

Within a radius of a thousand feet at the Peak of Fallen Souls, apart from a few Dou Sheng powerhouses, no one else dares to step into it!

"This, this!"

As the fiery storm swept across the mountain range, the entire area fell into a deep silence.

They originally thought that with the help of the power of the Void Devouring Flame, the three members of the Soul Palace could withstand Lin Ran's attack, but no one expected that it would turn out like this in the end.

A terrifying burst of fiery energy swept across the sky, leaving Lin Ran alone atop the heavens, looking down into the distance. The entire area was utterly silent.
