Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 331 Another Battle Against the Soul Emperor!

"What kind of strange fire is that?!"

The Soul Emperor's voice was full of astonishment. He knew that the Pure World Sacred Heart Flame that Lin Ran originally controlled was a strange fire that was no weaker than the Void Devouring Flame. In addition, with the Nine Profound Golden Thunder, Lin Ran was able to suppress the Void Devouring Flame.

Even so, suppression is one thing, but the kind of 'fear' that low-level strange fire encounters high-level strange fire is completely different!

This means that the strange fire that Lin Ran currently possesses has completely surpassed the Void Devouring Flame.

The Void Devouring Flame is the second-ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking. Its strength is unparalleled throughout the ages, surpassed only by the Emperor Flame, which has never appeared in the world.

Could it be that the strange fire that Lin Ran is currently wielding is the legendary Emperor Flame?

No, that's not right.

The Soul Emperor could clearly sense the special and familiar aura within this strange fire, as well as the feeling of thunderous flames.

"Fusing different flames?!"

Lin Ran sneered and did not respond. The holy flame in his palm rose like a dream, with thunderous patterns, and his figure surged directly towards the Soul Emperor.

The Soul Emperor's expression was solemn, but he did not show the slightest fear.

Although this strange fire is very powerful, it depends on who uses it.

Although Lin Ran's current strength is also at the peak of Dou Sheng, there is still a gap even among the peak of Dou Sheng!

With a fierce shout, the Soul Emperor unleashed a palm strike, a palm wind filled with the aura of death descending upon Lin Ran.

That terrifying power was so great that even if a Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) expert was grazed by it, his life force and fighting spirit would be devoured and dissolved.

"drink!"

Facing the Soul Emperor's palm strike, Lin Ran's expression turned solemn. His Holy Flame surged forth like a storm, transforming into a giant fiery palm that forcefully blocked the Soul Emperor's attack. The Soul Emperor's incomparably malevolent, dark red battle aura, imbued with devouring power, was also rapidly purified by the Holy Flame.

But in an instant, the Soul Emperor struck back, sending Lin Ran flying hundreds of meters away.

"Ancient Emperor's Seal!"

"boom!"

The emerald green palm print pierced through the air and crashed down on the Soul Emperor. The latter was caught off guard and was struck, his body flying backward.

"Damn it!"

The Soul Emperor's face was cold, and his gaze was stern.

Although his cultivation was strong, he was not a true Dou Di after all, and he was still unable to break through to the true Zhen realm. Facing Lin Ran and Gu Yuan, who were at the peak of Dou Sheng, he was obviously struggling.

Seeing that their combined attacks were effective, Lin Ran and Gu Yuan exchanged a glance, both of them showing a hint of joy.

"I'll take the lead, Uncle, you support me!"

Lin Ran's fighting spirit surged wildly, and holy flames roared. Gu Yuan nodded, and his fighting spirit exploded, causing an energy tide to suddenly rise between heaven and earth.

"Diamond-like Crystal Body!"

Lin Ran let out a low shout, and his body suddenly expanded to several hundred feet, with dazzling golden light bursting out from his body.

"Pure Yang Holy Body... Tempered by Holy Flame!!"

Having just unleashed his Vajra Lapis Lazuli Body, Lin Ran once again spoke with a thunderous eloquence.

A dreamlike holy flame surged wildly from within his body, and his enormous, dazzling form was quickly enveloped by the flame, becoming dreamlike and ethereal.

Originally, the Destruction Fire Body had been strengthened to an extremely terrifying level after Lin Ran obtained the Strange Fire. At this moment, the difficulty of simultaneously using two top-level body-strengthening combat techniques is simply unimaginable.

Fortunately, Lin Ran possesses an Emperor-level soul, and his control over it has reached its peak!

Once the two body-enhancing fighting techniques were unleashed, Lin Ran's aura became violent and fierce. His figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of the Soul Emperor, striking down with a palm.

As he slapped down, his fingers also flicked repeatedly!

"The Finger of the Underworld!"

"Yellow Springs Palm!"

"Great Sun Annihilation Palm!"

The three fighting techniques took shape almost simultaneously under Lin Ran's palm and slammed fiercely towards the Soul Emperor.

Seeing Lin Ran's arrogant and domineering attitude, even the Soul Emperor couldn't help but change his expression.

With the amplification of power, Lin Ran's cultivation aura rose infinitely, and he even showed a faint tendency to contend with him!

"Blood Demon Devours the Heavens!"

A terrifying, dark red battle aura, imbued with the power of ethereal flames, roared wildly from the Soul Emperor's body, transforming into a terrifying, dark red vortex before him. The vortex twisted and contorted, emanating eerie and chilling spatial fluctuations.

"Today, no one can stop me from opening the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave!"

The Soul Emperor roared and controlled the black hole vortex, colliding it fiercely with Lin Ran's formula.

The heavens and earth twisted, the sun and moon revolved, and the battle qi energy released by Lin Ran slammed into the huge dark red black hole. The enormous energy was continuously devoured by it, and strange spatial ripples spread out, causing the space within a thousand feet to collapse into a patch of pitch-black nothingness.

"Ancient Emperor's Shattering Finger!"

While Lin Ran and Soul Emperor were exchanging blows, Gu Yuan, who had been eyeing the battlefield and was ready for action, seized the perfect moment and made his move decisively.

He did not mobilize the battle energy of heaven and earth. Although mobilizing the battle energy of heaven and earth to attack with momentum was his usual move, the energy of heaven and earth had long become extremely unstable under the clash between Lin Ran and the Soul Emperor. If he wanted to mobilize the energy, he would have to spend a lot of effort.

The opportunity to fight is fleeting; time is of the essence and cannot be wasted!

Gu Yuan's figure instantly appeared beside the Soul Emperor. His battle qi surged to its limit, and then he let out a low shout. His vast battle qi condensed into a giant finger, covered with strange patterns, and then he fiercely blasted it towards the Soul Emperor.

"Bang!"

The dazzling giant finger of battle aura slammed down on the Soul Emperor. The Soul Emperor roared, and the dark red battle aura wrapped in black flames surged wildly within his body once more, transforming into a pitch-black barrier that firmly blocked Gu Yuan's attack.

"Come on! Again!"

The Soul Emperor roared to the sky, his arms outstretched, unleashing a torrent of battle energy that even shattered the hair tie on his head, causing his white hair to ripple wildly and his aura to be overwhelming.

The next moment, the Soul Emperor's wide-open palms suddenly came together, turning into fists, and he clenched his fists before suddenly unleashing a powerful punch.

"Bang!"

As the Soul Emperor unleashed his fists, the sky was directly torn apart into two massive vacuum zones, each thousands of feet long.

Sensing the sudden and terrifying force of the wind, Gu Yuan and Lin Ran's expressions changed, and they hurriedly unleashed their battle qi to meet it. Instantly, two deafening roars exploded in the sky.

"Ta-da!"

A terrifying storm of destruction exploded in front of Gu Yuan and Lin Ran, and the powerful gusts of wind forced the two of them back hundreds of feet.

On the other hand, the Soul Emperor still stood proudly in the sky, and the fluctuations emanating from his body were becoming increasingly terrifying.

However, after successfully striking, the Soul Emperor did not continue to pursue. Instead, he quickly formed hand seals and suddenly plunged into the Canaan Academy below, which was already covered by surging lava.

Then, he suddenly raised the ancient jade of Tuoshe in his hand. The ancient jade burst forth with extremely brilliant light, and an inexplicable connection emerged from the ancient jade. The scorching magma below seemed to become even more turbulent and scalding because of the brilliance of the ancient jade.

"Damn it, this guy actually has such combat power after devouring the Void Devouring Flame..." Lin Ran frowned and adjusted his breathing.

"The Soul Emperor's foundation is beyond question, and coupled with this terrifying cultivation... I even feel that I am facing not a Battle Saint, but a Battle Emperor." Gu Yuan coughed lightly, his aura rising and falling.

"It's just a short-lived outburst, Uncle. If we join forces, we will surely slay this Soul Emperor here today!"

"good!"

The two exchanged a glance and set off again. But before they could even move, they seemed to sense something and turned to look at the lava sea below.

Suddenly, a gigantic vortex appeared there, and within it, something seemed about to emerge.

"This is……"

"So, the ancient emperor's cave is finally about to see the light of day again?!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan's face grew even more gloomy, but Lin Ran's expression revealed a strange look.

"Uncle, please keep an eye on the Soul Emperor for now. I'll be right back!"

"What?" Gu Yuan was somewhat taken aback, but he didn't ask any further questions. He knew that Lin Ran was definitely more aware of what was happening than he was.

Lin Ran vanished instantly, while the lava beneath his feet churned even more violently, as if some terrifying force was emerging from it…

……

Suddenly, waves surged in the vast sea of ​​lava, and a massive whirlpool, thousands of feet in size, slowly formed on the surface of the lava sea.

At the end of that vortex, as if something was about to appear, a strange fluctuation rippled through the heavens and earth.

The sudden change that occurred within the magma attracted the attention of many, and expressions of astonishment appeared on their faces.

"Soul Emperor!"

Gu Yuan suddenly looked up at the figure controlling the Tuoshe Ancient Jade. A cold glint flashed in his eyes. He took a step forward, causing spatial fluctuations, and appeared behind the Soul Emperor.

The tides of heaven and earth surged and moved, eventually transforming into a gigantic tidal hand that slammed down fiercely on the Soul Emperor.

"boom!"

Faced with Gu Yuan's attack, Soul Emperor laughed loudly and threw a punch that shattered the void, easily taking Gu Yuan's palm strike.

"Gu Yuan, it's too late. Now, we await the emergence of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave!"

The Soul Emperor retreated, his hand tightly gripping the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.

Upon hearing Hun Tiandi's words, Gu Yuan's expression darkened slightly. He glanced at the lava sea below and indeed saw that the whirlpool on the lava sea had suddenly expanded more than tenfold!

"Boom boom boom!"

As the vortex expanded, massive pillars of magma, thousands of feet long, suddenly erupted from the surface of the magma sea, covering the sky.

Many people on both sides were affected; the high temperature and impact caused casualties on both sides.

Gazing at the raging sea of ​​lava, the Soul Emperor's ecstatic joy grew ever stronger.

He could feel that the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in his hand had suddenly become unusually hot.

"Whoosh!"

A massive wave of lava, thousands of feet high, suddenly surged up and crashed down. As it splashed lava everywhere, the rapidly spinning vortex of lava gradually slowed down.

As the rotational speed slowed down, huge magma bulged up from the surface of the magma sea, and the crimson magma spread rapidly.

As the lava spread, an ancient stone gate, standing tall between heaven and earth, slowly rose from the lava under the watchful eyes of the fervent gazes.

A stone gate appeared, the lava receded rapidly, and an ancient, wild aura instantly filled the world.

Under that atmosphere, all things were silent.

Even someone as powerful as Gu Yuan and Soul Emperor felt a unique and immense pressure from the bottom of their heart.

It was an aura that transcended the heavens and earth!

Countless gazes from all directions converged on the ancient stone gate, and finally, all those gazes froze on the four ancient characters above the stone gate!

"Ancient Emperor's Cave!"

The eyes of the Soul Emperor shone with an astonishing light at this moment. Even with his composure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion when he saw these four characters that he had pursued for thousands of years.

"I've finally found you..."

The Soul Emperor muttered to himself, and finally couldn't help but laugh wildly, his laughter echoing like thunder across the sky.

"So this is the legendary ancient emperor's cave dwelling..."

Gu Yuan was also somewhat lost in thought at this moment.

He stared blankly at the ancient stone gate standing quietly on the lava. The terrifying aura emanating from it made him realize that this was not some fake thing, but the real Dou Di Cave!

Only the things left behind by the legendary Dou Di could make him feel terrified!

Looking at the still, ancient stone gate, Gu Yuan took a moment to come back to his senses.

The eight ancient clans fought each other in chaos more than once for this ancient emperor's cave, but in the end, no one was able to obtain it. Unexpectedly, a thousand years later, when only four of the eight clans remained, they were still able to summon it!

A massive, ancient stone gate stood amidst the lava; its sheer size made everyone appear incredibly small.

In their eyes, this stone gate was like a world unto itself, exceptionally mysterious.

"All alliance members, immediately move away from the lava and the cave!!"

Suddenly, Lin Ran's voice boomed like thunder through the crowd.

As the shout rang out, the calm sea of ​​lava suddenly erupted with towering waves.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar resounded throughout the land.

The moment that roar, seemingly from ancient times, was uttered, both Gu Yuan and the Soul Emperor's expressions changed drastically.

This aura is actually at the level of a late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng!

"Hahaha, I, the Emperor, have finally seen the light of day again!"

Ten thousand feet of magma shot into the sky, and a fierce aura that changed the color of heaven and earth also surged out from the magma sea!

The crimson magma seemed poised to devour the heavens and earth.

Looking around, the entire world was filled with towering waves of lava, and the terrifying heat turned the world into a furnace.

Both armies hastily retreated due to the towering waves of lava, their gazes filled with horror as they stared beneath the magma.

At this moment, even they could sense an extremely terrifying creature lurking within this sea of ​​lava...
