965. Clash of the Strong
965. Clash of the Strong
Without warning, the two different flames surrounding Yan Jin erupted like a volcanic eruption. The flames shot into the sky like bright streaks of light, then fell to the ground like a shower of petals, striking his opponent directly. Yan Jin used his power to create a lava meteor shower in the area.
Each of those fiery streaks was powerful enough to severely injure an ordinary one-star Dou Sheng, but the Soul Clan expert remained unhurried, raising his hand and pointing towards the sky. Hundreds of black hole vortices of varying sizes and shapes appeared between him and Yan Jin. Each vortex contained an incomparably deep and abyssal void. All the streaks of light that fell into the vortex could not make a sound. At the same time, the area where the vortex appeared was wide enough that all of Yan Jin's attacks were completely devoured without exception.
Upon seeing this move, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up instantly. This method of using the devouring power of the Void Devouring Flame was something he had never dared to imagine before, and it opened a window for Xiao Yan in an instant.
Only then did Xiao Yan realize that the attack just now was only a prelude, and the intensity of the clash between the two nine-star Dou Sheng continued to increase.
The fire-attribute fighting techniques used by Yan Jin, the application of different flames, and the control and release of the Void Devouring Flame by the Soul Clan all gave Xiao Yan new insights. He even felt that he couldn't keep up with everything. Before he could even see the fleeting attacks clearly, the next attack had already followed.
The experience gained from watching such high-level masters fight is incredibly important to Xiao Yan, especially since these two aren't just teaching him; they're fighting a life-or-death battle. Only in a life-or-death struggle will two people hold nothing back, making the experience gained truly valuable.
"So powerful! Is this the realm of top-tier experts?!"
Despite having advanced to the Dou Sheng realm, Xiao Yan still felt that his strength was insignificant in such a grand setting.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom—
After Yan Jin and the Black Flame Man clashed again and were both forced back, the Black Flame Man's expression also darkened, and his previous relaxed demeanor completely vanished. He realized that Yan Jin's strength as a nine-star Dou Sheng was not only genuine, but also that his hatred for him made his attacks extremely ferocious and unstoppable.
As a fellow nine-star Dou Sheng, he naturally had many ways to deal with the situation, but gaining the upper hand was already extremely difficult, let alone seizing an opportunity to kill him.
Just as he was considering whether to evacuate first, a smile suddenly reappeared on his face.
The man in black flames spoke to the void, "Now that the friend of our ancient clan has arrived, how about we join forces to bury him here?"
As a nine-star Dou Sheng powerhouse of equal strength, Yan Jin naturally sensed that the man in black flames wasn't just spouting nonsense. While the two were engrossed in their battle, a third powerful figure had silently appeared. However, this third person wasn't as strong as the two of them, so he couldn't completely conceal his presence.
However, with the black-flame man's words, the other man could no longer conceal himself. His concealment techniques ceased, and a tall man clad in heavy armor, exuding the aura of an ancient clan, appeared. The fact that he could move freely under the oppressive presence of these two demonstrated his immense strength.
When Yan Jin saw this person, a hint of fear appeared in his eyes: "The Ancient Clan's Black Annihilation King, Gu Lie!"
Gu Lie first bowed to Yan Jin and said, "Junior Gu Lie greets Clan Chief Yan Jin. Congratulations to Clan Chief Yan Jin on reaching the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm."
"What, have the ancient races really degenerated to the point of colluding with the Soul Race?"
The Soul Clan's strength was unfathomable, a fact Yan Jin only truly grasped on the day the Flame Clan was annihilated. Originally, the Flame Clan should have been completely unable to withstand the Soul Clan's offensive, but the Soul Clan's patriarch, Soul Emperor, hadn't appeared on the front lines. Once the battle officially began, Yan Jin sensed another clash, realizing someone had held off Soul Emperor for the Flame Clan. On the Dou Qi Continent, the one with such ability was most likely Gu Yuan, the patriarch of an ancient clan.
Therefore, despite the fact that the current situation shows that the two great families of Dou Di descendants, the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan, have joined forces, Yan Jin still wants to try to find some opportunities for himself.
When Gu Lie heard Yan Jin's question, he did not deny it, but calmly replied, "Senior Yan Jin, you flatter me. My clan and the Soul Clan only share some common goals. It's not a matter of colluding with each other."
"Going along with the crowd is not so bad, is it?"
The man in black flames chuckled strangely and said, "Gu Lie, Yan Jin has advanced to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm. He's bound to be our greatest enemy now and in the future. Since there's no way we can get any more of his help here, how about we work together to eliminate him?"
Hearing such a direct and blatant plot, Yan Jin laughed and said to Gu Lie, "Gu Lie, you're already the second strongest in the Gu Clan, but the Soul Clan still has this Nine-Star Dou Sheng. I think Gu Yuan won't be able to sleep soundly at night unless we get rid of him. I'm no match for the two of you. Later, if we join forces, I'll severely injure him with my self-destruction, and your Gu Clan can reap the benefits. Anyway, my Yan Clan only has a deep-seated hatred for the Soul Clan!"
Yan Jin knew that the two had a deeper relationship, so he invited Gu Lie to take advantage of him by self-destructing.
Hearing the two's enthusiastic invitation, Gu Lie's lips twitched. Suppressing his inner disdain for them, he said, "Both of you are exceptionally skilled; I am no match for you in a one-on-one fight. Please, you two, fight. I will merely observe from the sidelines and will not interfere. How about it?"
The three of them spoke without any restraint, and even Xiao Yan and Huo Zhi, who were standing to the side, could hear them clearly. It was obviously just some superficial talk, with each of them poking at a sore spot.
In reality, the black-flame man and Gu Lie were positioned to the left and right, respectively, blocking Yan Jin in the center, with Gu Lie being relatively further away. After all, his strength was still considerably inferior to the two currently on the field; he could only serve as a support and distraction. If he were to face Yan Jin head-on, he would undoubtedly be defeated in the long run!
Yan Jin clearly sensed everything. Continuing the fight would not benefit him. Although he was dissatisfied with only killing a four-star Dou Sheng in the battle where he exposed his strength, it was time for him to leave. Just as Yan Jin spotted Xiao Yan and Huo Zhi's location and was about to break through and temporarily retreat...
A point of light suddenly appeared in the distance, and in the blink of an eye, it was right in front of us.
But it was not a simple point of light; only when it came close did one feel the thunder—a massive amount of thunderous power.
A surge of thunderous energy swept in from afar, its sharpness like a thunder dragon piercing the heart. Space itself shattered silently, inch by inch, like fragile glass.
