Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

After he rushed to the top of the mountain, everything in front of him suddenly opened up. There were no plants in sight, only a rather surprising group of buildings.

Ahead lay sheer cliffs and a bottomless abyss, with only the misty clouds visible within the valley, obscuring the bottom entirely. This terrain stretched out on both sides, forming an enormous circular shape.

And right in the very center of that abyss, at the very heart of this circular cliff face, stands a perfectly upright pillar. Most remarkably, atop that pillar rises a castle—a pure white castle.

Surprisingly, the headquarters of Xuantian Palace was surrounded by dead ends on all sides, with only iron chains connecting it to the mountain walls in all directions. In such a place, without the ability to fly, once the castle cut off all access to the outside world, it would be virtually impossible to leave alive.

Yan looked into the distance and estimated that it was a thousand meters from the edge of the cliff to Xuantian Fortress. Even if he relied on the iron chains to travel, it would be extremely dangerous, but it was not a problem for him.

Yan's figure flashed and appeared at the other end of the iron chain, at the entrance of Xuantian Fortress. As soon as he stopped, figures rapidly converged on the entrance, as Xuantian Palace experts finally discovered his intrusion.

"Who goes there!"

Yan took another step and landed inside the Xuantian Palace headquarters, Xuantian Fortress. Immediately, dense footsteps and shouts rang out around him, but he didn't care. Instead, he leisurely looked around at the interior layout of Xuantian Fortress.

The interior of Xuantian Fortress wasn't particularly luxurious, but all the decorations and buildings inside seemed to be carved from a type of jade he had never seen before. This jade, however, seemed to have the ability to gather the energy of heaven and earth, making it a valuable treasure.

In less than a few breaths, at least a hundred people had gathered in front of Yan. The twenty or so people in front of him were all at least at the Heavenly King level, and the four elders who were in the lead all had extremely astonishing Heavenly Power fluctuations, and were actually four Heavenly Emperor level experts.

However, Yan's gaze did not linger on these people for long. Instead, he looked towards the side door in front of him. Surrounded by four waiters, a masked figure walked out from behind. His energy was restrained, yet it still posed a subtle threat to Yan.

"Greetings, Palace Master."

Including the four Heavenly Emperor-level experts, everyone in the Xuan Tian Palace bowed loudly and respectfully when this person arrived.

"Please, everyone, no need for formalities."

The Xuan Tian Palace Master waved his hands, and his neutral voice rang out, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze. After calming everyone down a bit, he turned his gaze to Yan, the uninvited guest.

"Your strength is astonishing, but trespassing into Xuantian Fortress is not a good choice. May I ask what brings you here today?"

The name of the Xuan Tian Palace Master is Dongfang, a name passed down through generations. The lineage of the Palace Master has always been very special, and outsiders don't even know whether it is male or female.

Yan's gaze swept over everyone before he calmly said, "I have come to Xuantian Fort today on someone's behalf to borrow the space teleportation stone of Xuantian Palace."

"The Space Teleportation Stone is a treasure of my Xuantian Palace."

"What a joke! How could the treasure of my Xuantian Palace be lent out?"

"This person's origins are unknown, and he has such intentions. We cannot let him escape; we must capture him."

"Palace Master, give the order! This traitor must be captured."

……

Upon hearing Yan's words, the powerful figures of Xuantian Palace reacted strongly, all requesting that Yan, this madman, be captured. They knew that the Space Teleportation Stone was the most precious treasure of Xuantian Palace, and even the high-ranking members of the sect dared not use it lightly. This person actually dared to think of taking it; wasn't he just courting death?

Xuan Tian shook his head without much hesitation and said, "Sir, I don't know if you understand the significance of the Space Teleportation Stone to Xuan Tian Palace, but this item is a treasure of Xuan Tian Palace and can never be lent out."

"Palace Master Xuantian, what if I absolutely must borrow it?"

Yan knew that when it came to such treasures that guarded the palace, it was mostly impossible to persuade others with words, so he didn't waste any more words. In an instant, circles of yellow light enveloped most of Xuantian Fortress. The Xuantian Fortress crowd, who had been noisily trying to capture him, suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure.

This was not just a simple pressure from the aura, but a combination of Yan's strong control over the gravity of the earth. The dual pressure on the mind and body caused the Xuan Tian Palace disciples below the Heavenly King level to fall down directly. Even the group of Heavenly King level experts were almost powerless to resist. Only the five experts above the Heavenly Emperor level still had the power to fight.

"This is a provocation against Xuantian Palace. We will not let this matter rest."

A formidable aura suddenly surged from the Xuan Tian Palace Master, and the four Heavenly Emperor-level experts attacked simultaneously, working together to break Yan's gravity-controlled domain force field.

"The enemy is powerful, elders, please hold them off for a moment."

With a sharp roar, the Xuan Tian Palace Master Dongfang ascended into the sky, and then a large swath of black mist began to spread. Four Heavenly Emperor-level Supreme Elders and a group of Heavenly King-level Elders joined forces to fight against Yan's domain power.

The attributes of the Xuan Tian Palace disciples are unknown. The higher-ups all possess dark attributes that combine dark and evil power. In an instant, a large amount of dark mist spread out and confronted Yan's gravity light head-on.

Yan suddenly raised his hand and clenched his fist. A large amount of yellow light gathered and condensed. He threw a punch, and a beam of light pierced through the black mist. The Xuan Tian Palace members who were fighting in formation were all hit by the backlash and fell to the ground. The situation changed so suddenly that the eastern sky was extremely anxious.

Yan looked up at the Xuan Tian Palace Master in the east, but did not rush to make a move. Instead, he let him summon his last trump card. Soon, layers of black mist spread across the horizon, and a huge black shadow vaguely appeared inside the abyss outside Xuan Tian Fortress.

A thick black mist obscured the sky, and a sharp and chilling pressure burst forth from it, surging and pressing down on the earth. Yet, Yan Yijiu stood there watching.

"Roar~~~"

A deafening dragon roar echoed from the endless black mist, and Yan could see a dark dragon-shaped outline faintly appearing around the body in the east.

"Strong stranger, why have you come to Xuantian Palace?"

A deep, resonant, and magnetic baritone voice rang out from all directions, and an unfamiliar yet powerful pressure pressed down on Yan from all sides.

Yan snorted and raised his right hand. A beam of yellow light, like a sharp blade tearing through the sky, caused the darkness to recede and revealed the enormous dragon shadow hidden in the depths of darkness.

In the dark sky, two eerie lights, radiating a strong dark aura, lit up. Under the cover of that eerie red light, just a few hundred meters away, a huge body carried the Eastern figure, looking down at him.

This is a giant dragon, with black scales inlaid on its body like pieces of black crystal. Its massive body is over forty meters long, and its huge wings slowly spread as it stands up. The eerie red light is its eyes.

With its jet-black scales and intense dark aura, this is the Dark Demon Dragon, a powerful dragon of the lower-level Celestial God rank from the dragon clan of the Vast Continent.

Chapter 594 Transaction Agreement

"Sir, your strength is indeed formidable, but Xuantian Palace is not without its own God-level experts. If you can relinquish some of your excessive desires, you can still gain the friendship of Xuantian Palace. As you just mentioned, you were entrusted by others, not because you needed it yourself."

The Xuan Tian Palace Master, Dongfang, riding on the dark dragon in the sky, spoke loudly. Although the appearance of the dark dragon gave him a lot of confidence, Yan Fang's strength was far beyond that of an ordinary god, and he was not very confident of victory. Therefore, he wanted to try to resolve the matter peacefully with words.

Yan looked at the dragon knights in the sky without much change in his expression, and said calmly, "Palace Master Dongfang, I advise you to seriously consider this. I really do need the Space Teleportation Stone."

Yan's words made the Dark Dragon feel that his dignity had been challenged, and he hurriedly shouted angrily, "This guy is too arrogant, Dongfang, let's join forces and destroy him."

Xuan Tian Palace Master Dongfang also sensed Yan's difficulty and lack of cooperation, and slowly nodded. A powerful aura suddenly erupted from her body. In an instant, streaks of dark golden light shone from her body, and the heavenly power on her body condensed into a shape resembling a dark demonic dragon.

This Dark Dragon Transformation is a secret technique of the Palace Master's lineage, and a key reason why it has been passed down in an orderly manner for so long. A pair of enormous dragon wings appeared behind him in the east, and one after another, divine master-level materialized equipment appeared on his body.

One after another, dark golden scale armor pieces emerged from his body. The seventh piece of equipment was a helmet, shaped like a dragon's mouth. Then, the eighth piece began to appear. This eighth piece extended from his waist, radiating a strong dark golden light.

What's really strange is that this eighth piece wasn't worn on his body, but rather combined with the dark dragon's horn on his back, firmly fixing his body above the dark dragon's head.

The dark gold armor flipped downwards and merged with the head of the dark dragon. A terrifying layer of dark elemental energy erupted from the dark dragon's body, and the intense dark energy surged wildly into the Eastern Palace Master's body through its horn.

At this moment, the ninth dark golden light appeared, and this time, the armor appeared directly on the Dark Dragon.

Dark gold armor extended from the dragon's feet in the east, with its feet firmly planted on the dragon's head. The armor then extended down the dragon's neck, covering the dragon's vital area below its neck, and continued to extend until it completely covered the dragon's neck.

This extraordinary legendary set of armor combines the power of humans and celestial beasts, and the celestial beast is a god-level dragon, which is simply unbelievable.

At this moment, Meng Xing and the Dark Dragon appeared to be one. All that could be sensed was a powerful, god-like aura, far stronger than when they were alone.

The tenth dark golden light shone again, this time from the top of the east. A melodious dragon roar also came from the mouth of the dark dragon, and the powerful roar caused the surrounding sea to rise up with huge waves hundreds of feet high.

A dark golden light shot into the sky, and the eleventh dark golden light shone from the right hand that Dongfang raised, and a huge dark golden spear hovered in front of her.

This spear is seven meters long, thick in the middle and tapering to a point at both ends, and entirely black. It features a relief of two giant dragons coiled around it, and at the very center of the spear where the two dragons meet, there is a striking bright red bead.

The violent tremors shook the heavens and earth, and an extremely terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the combination of the dark dragon and the Eastern creature.

The vivid, blood-red color almost instantly replaced all the dark gold luster. The spears were blood-red, the armor scales were blood-red, and even the dark dragon's horn turned blood-red.

What does this mean? It means that the entire legendary set has been released, a set of eleven pieces. Looking across the entire Vast Continent, only the Vast Limitless Set of eleven pieces can surpass it.

To complete the Dark Dragon set, you need the Dark Dragon itself, while the Vast and Boundless set doesn't have so many restrictions, and more than one person can obtain the entire set of eleven pieces.

However, in terms of explosive power, the Dark Dragon Set, which incorporates the power of the Dark Dragon, a king-level dragon, may be stronger than the Vast Limitless Set. However, one set can only be obtained once, while the other can theoretically be obtained in countless sets. It is already clear which set is stronger.

A terrifying energy surge erupted on the sea surface, and the roar from the dark dragon grew louder and louder, filled with a strong sense of provocation.

"Is this your trump card? Once I defeat you, you won't have any other excuses!"

Yan's expression remained calm. In the next instant, he appeared opposite the Dark Dragon and Dongfang, and then flashed again to a position less than ten meters away from them.

The dark dragon's enormous wings suddenly flapped, unleashing its unparalleled aura. Its originally clear dragon roar instantly became more intense, and its terrifying dragon might surged forth like a raging torrent.

In an instant, the sky was filled with dark clouds, and dark demonic clouds filled with dark energy rushed towards Yan.

At the moment his gaze fell upon it, all the energy seemed to transform into an immense dark energy, with the massive body of the Dark Dragon being the core of heaven and earth.

The Eastern Palace Master, standing proudly atop the dark demon's head, became even more conspicuous. Blood-red light completely enveloped her body, and her seven-meter-long dragon spear was pointed diagonally at Yan, who was rushing towards her. Her sharp aura, combined with the heavy black curtain, completely sealed off and strangled Yan.

More gravitational light emanated from Yan's body, its earthy yellow radiance shining brilliantly, almost like a sacred golden divine glow.

The endless darkness was distorted by the yellow light just three zhang away from Yan. Seeing that such methods were useless, a blood-red figure rushed out. Dongfang and the Dark Demon Dragon merged into one, and the long Dark Annihilation Dragon-Slaying Spear transformed into a blood-red lightning bolt that shattered everything.

The Dark Dragon Set is a top-tier set that is purely offensive, and its greatest strength lies in attack. In terms of pure attack power, even a full set of the Vast and Boundless Set may not be able to match the Dark Dragon Set.

However, he was facing Yan, a near-god-level powerhouse who had fused with the bones of the Mountain Dragon King and used the strongest earth attribute for defense. Yan's defense had already reached an inhuman level, and Dongfang's idea was destined to fail.

"Boom!"

The Dark Dragon Spear pierced through layers of golden light and arrived three feet away from Yan. However, once at this distance, no matter how much he and the Dark Dragon unleashed their power, they could not advance an inch. Then, he met Yan's eyes, which shone with holy golden light.

Yan raised his right hand and suddenly grabbed the Dark Dragon Spear. A fierce aura swept over his entire body, causing Dongfang to shiver and almost lose his grip on the Dark Annihilation Dragon Slayer Spear.

This situation terrified her greatly. She knew that the Dark Dragon Spear was part of her legendary set, a weapon that could be used at will, but it was affected by a powerful aura and she almost couldn't hold it. Thinking about this situation a little, it was truly chilling.

"Let go."

With a fierce shout, Dongfang channeled his heavenly power into the dragon spear. The dark, silent dragon-slaying spear in his hand almost transformed into a streak of red lightning. The blood-red dragon spear swelled in the air, its length suddenly increasing to ten zhang. The distance between Dongfang and Yan instantly widened to more than ten zhang, and the incomparably sharp blood-red lightning pierced straight for Yan's head.

Yan watched the crimson lightning, which was growing larger in his line of sight, from ten feet away. He naturally crossed his hands in front of him to gather the light of gravity. Then, he spun his hands outwards at the same time, forming a shape that supported the sky. Then, a large area of ​​yellow light condensed into a golden semicircle.

"boom……"

The crimson lightning was pushed back by the semi-circular yellow light, which then spread and contracted more rapidly, trapping the Dark Dragon and the Eastern Palace Master in a yellowish-brown light shield with a diameter of 100 meters.

Yan raised his hands high and slowly lowered them. In his palms, the Xuan Tian Palace Master Dongfang and the Dark Demon Dragon darted left and right and back and forth within the light barrier, but could not break through. Finally, in desperation, they rushed towards Yan but were frozen in mid-air.

At this moment, Dongfang and the Dark Dragon were like a monkey being toyed with, while Yan was the Buddha who unleashed the Buddha Kingdom in his palm.

"Stop it, everyone."

A woman's voice rang out again from within the Xuantian Palace, and a figure appeared in the arena, stopping the four Heavenly Emperor-level experts who were about to continue their attack.

Yan glanced at her briefly and saw that she was indeed a rare beauty, probably a little older than him. The mature and beautiful woman had a lot of charm.

"Greetings, Madam."

Many members of the Xuantian Palace bowed to the newly appeared Heavenly Emperor-level expert, while the lady returned the bow slightly, then took a few steps to approach Yan, softly saying, "Young master, may we talk again? Please release the Palace Master."

"Since Madam has spoken, I naturally have no reason to refuse."

Yan nodded and smiled at the Lady of the East, then put one hand behind his back. The golden light shield in the sky instantly dissipated, and the Dark Demon Dragon and the Palace Master of the East instantly disintegrated, transforming into two figures that appeared on the left and right of the Lady of the East.

Are you alright?

Madam Dongfang quickly helped the unsteady Palace Master Dongfang. Yan subconsciously touched his nose as he watched the scene unfold. This caring scene felt a little strange.

"I am fine."

The Eastern Palace Master coughed twice, exhaled some turbid air, and shook his head. Then he looked at Yan, his eyes filled with apprehension.
