Facing the terrifying, blazing-hot enormous palm imprint descending from above.
"Ban Sheng." Hun Yu's face twitched violently.
He drew in a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the faint fear rising in his heart, and his hand seals shifted. Between his brows, a mysterious clan mark slowly surfaced. As soon as that clan mark appeared, Hun Yu's aura instantly surged upward.
His hand seals flowed rapidly, forming a series of complex seals. The cold, dark Dou Qi inside his body shot forward like lightning, condensing into a pitch-black palm imprint so deep and sinister that it made one's soul tremble.
From the palm imprint came waves of shrill, agonized screams, and faintly, distorted human faces formed within the darkness.
Heaven Grade Dou Technique.
"Soul Destruction Palm!"
As the screams grew more intense, Hun Yu let out an angry shout. The pitch-black palm imprint shot forward like a streak of black lightning, rushing up to meet the massive blazing palm first.
That dark palm imprint didn't look large, but it contained an extremely cold and terrifying Dou Qi. The shrill cries coming from it made people's eardrums sting and even their souls feel uncomfortable.
The experts of the Hun Clan, along with Jiu Feng and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, all attacked with full force. However, all of their combined attacks, when compared to Xiao Yan's falling blazing palm imprint, seemed unbelievably fragile.
The moment the two sides collided, the purple-brown flame palm imprint continued descending steadily, not stopped for even the slightest instant.
Crack!
Everyone stared in shock as all their attacks — including the pitch-black palm imprint that Hun Yu had condensed with almost all his Dou Qi — were smashed apart instantly, like rotten wood crushed under a mountain.
This kind of power was an absolute suppression from an entirely different level.
Only now did everyone truly understand the terrifying gap between a Ban Sheng and a Dou Zun. The confidence they gained from jointly defeating those five Ban Sheng puppets completely crumbled in this moment.
A real Ban Sheng… was not something so simple.
Boom!
All the attacks launched by the Hun Clan and Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan experts exploded into nothingness under the watching eyes of the crowd.
Pfft!
Hun Yu and the others spat blood and were blown backward. The remaining flame palm imprint continued crashing downward.
Rumble!
Violent flames erupted, forming a massive purple-brown arc-shaped energy shockwave that swept outward in all directions. Within the shockwave, countless figures were thrown through the air like torn sacks.
Once the dust settled, everyone fell silent. The ground was covered with miserable, fallen figures. One strike. Just one simple strike — and Hun Yu and all the others were grievously injured, losing all combat strength.
Hiss—
Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn't help but draw in a cold breath of the still-scorching air.
"Brother Yang, Xiao Yan just stepped into Ban Sheng, right? Isn't this… way too strong?" under the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, Xian'er said in disbelief.
Nearly twenty Dou Zun powerhouses who had stepped into the Nine-Change joined forces. Among them was even a peak Nine-Change Dou Zun far stronger than normal. Yet even their combined strength couldn't withstand one casual palm from Xiao Yan.
A Ban Sheng was powerful…
But he still wasn't a true Dou Sheng. This was… a bit too ridiculous. If this was a Ban Sheng, then how monstrous would a real Dou Sheng be?
"An ordinary low-level Ban Sheng doesn't have this level of power. Xiao Yan is clearly no ordinary Ban Sheng," Wei Yang said softly.
After the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree expanded their foundations several times over, Xiao Yan's strength had already undergone a complete transformation.
The same applied to Wei Yang.
An ordinary Ban Sheng? He could beat ten of them.
"So he's not a normal Ban Sheng…" Xian'er murmured thoughtfully.
"Hun Clan's clan-leader candidate, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's confirmed future clan leader? Pathetic," Xiao Yan said.
Standing in the air, he looked down at the group who had tried and failed several times to stand up. His tone bored, he curled his lips.
"Bastard!"
Hun Yu and Jiu Feng lay weakly on the ground. With great effort they raised their heads, staring at Xiao Yan with venomous eyes.
Their hearts were full of unwillingness. They understood very well — if not for Xiao Yan gaining enlightenment under the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, just a little over a month ago, he would absolutely not have been their match.
But the reality had already happened. They were crushed.
With just one palm!
"Heh."
Xiao Yan chuckled lightly.
The fun of mocking his defeated enemies was already satisfied, so there was no need to continue dragging things out. Time to end it.
He raised his hand, preparing to slap down and reduce all of them to ashes. But at that moment, he suddenly received a secret voice transmission from Wei Yang.
Hmm?
Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, then nodded slightly. His mind moved.
A massive wave of blazing flames surged out from his sleeve, forming a gigantic flame hand over a hundred meters tall. It shot downward like lightning.
Seeing Xiao Yan make his move, Hun Yu and Jiu Feng gritted their teeth in unwillingness, wanting to resist, but they were completely powerless.
The scorching and overwhelmingly forceful energy contained in that previous flame palm imprint had already seeped into every part of their bodies, rampaging wildly within.
Right now, their Dou Qi was being shattered apart by that violent, unstoppable heat. They couldn't gather it again in such a short time.
Thus, the two of them could only watch helplessly like lambs waiting for slaughter as the massive flame hand grabbed down, lifting them up as easily as picking up two tiny chicks.
"Xiao Yan!" Hun Yu roared furiously, ignoring the injuries ravaging his body as he struggled madly.
Black mist surged out of him, forming hideous beasts made of shadowy fog. They howled wildly, trying to tear open the flaming giant hand restraining him.
Bang bang bang!
However, the moment those fog beasts touched the giant flame hand, they were instantly blown apart into wisps of smoke, then evaporated completely by the terrifying high temperature.
"Still trying to resist?"
Xiao Yan let out a light laugh and tightened his grip.
Boom!
The black mist surrounding Hun Yu shuddered violently, then dispersed completely in the blink of an eye.
A wave of scorching force slipped into Hun Yu's body like venomous snakes, causing his face to turn pale as he coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood. His body went limp, losing all strength to struggle further.
Compared to Hun Yu, Jiu Feng was much calmer.
Although being seized like this in front of so many people was humiliating, he remained rational. He didn't waste energy flailing around and harming himself.
"Today's situation is hopeless. Struggling is pointless. Not only that Wei Yang, even this Xiao Yan kid has truly become a force to be reckoned with. Only the Supreme Elders of my clan will be able to contend with them now."
Jiu Feng's eyes flickered with thought as he swallowed down the rage and killing intent in his heart. Showing anything unusual right now would only make him end up the same as Hun Yu.
Besides, it seemed Xiao Yan didn't intend to kill him. Of course. His identity was different. He was the confirmed next clan leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan — a face of the clan.
Since there was no deep life-and-death feud between them, Falling Star Pavilion had no reason to completely tear apart relations with his tribe.
"Endure. As long as I return to the clan, in the future… I will definitely have a chance for revenge." Jiu Feng slowly closed his eyes.
Holding Hun Yu and Jiu Feng in his hands, Xiao Yan swept his gaze across the remaining Hun Clan and Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan members, then turned and smiled at Ah Da not far away, "Ah Da, the rest of them are yours."
"Yes." Ah Da's eyes lit up with joy. Having been running around doing nothing the whole time, he had been waiting for this moment. He quickly bowed slightly, "Many thanks."
"Haha." Xiao Yan waved his hand, then carried the powerless Hun Yu and Jiu Feng as he flew toward Wei Yang beneath the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree.
Meanwhile, Ah Da rubbed his hands together excitedly. With a flick of his sleeve, a violent black wind roared out, forming a massive black wind dragon. It shot forward, opened its enormous mouth, and swallowed the nearly twenty unconscious experts lying on the ground.
Roar~
The black wind dragon then turned back, its huge body shrinking rapidly as it slipped back into Ah Da's wide sleeve.
"Hehehe, now that's a haul. A fat wave!" Ah Da patted his sleeve and flew back with excitement.
With so many Spirit Realm souls, the distance between him and a Half-Step Heaven Realm soul had suddenly become much shorter. Once he reached Half-Step Heaven Realm… Ban Sheng would become a door wide open, easily within reach.
After all, with so many Bodhisattva Seeds, he was bound to get at least one.
I, Ah Da… have hope of becoming a Dou Sheng!
