Battle Through the Heavens: Beauties Abound Starting with Yunlan and Her Disciples

125: Section 125The robust hand belonging to the Sect Master of the Blood Sect, which had been tightly clutching the precious medicinal pill, was actually sliced off at the wrist by that sudden, eerie sword light!

Meanwhile, the container holding the ”yin yang dragon profound righteous pill” fell steadily into the hand of a young master with peerless features. ”Some things are not easily touched by someone of your status.”

Yun Xiancheng, dressed in green robes and holding a three-foot green blade, stood elegantly before the Sect Master of the Blood Sect. He spoke to him in a calm voice, his tone

devoid of any trace of joy or anger.

254 Fusion of Heavenly Flames

Clouds are born at the peak of the nine passes, their nature inherently indifferent. Immortals walk upon them, their hearts naturally clear and bright.

As the Young Sect Leader of the Cloud Mist Sect, Yun Xiancheng always maintained a gentle, jade-like, and approachable smile in his daily life when facing his own people. But at this moment, in this canyon of the Black-Corner Region, facing the ill-intentioned Sect Master of the Blood Sect, his peerless handsome face was already

completely frozen, like thousand-year-old ice that never melts, filled with a heart-palpitating chill and killing intent.

Without further words or explanations, after Yun Xiancheng put the priceless seventh-tier medicinal pill, the ”yin yang dragon profound righteous pill,” into his storage ring, he directly raised his sword and charged. Without a word, he began a world-shaking, fierce slaughter against the four-star Dou Huang Sect Master of the Blood Sect in the canyon!

Although Yun Xiancheng’s cultivation level at this time had only barely reached the Great Dou Master level, the momentum and power he erupted with were not in the least inferior to his opponent’s. In fact, he even seemed to have a slight upper hand!

This kind of momentum actually caused the four-star Dou Huang Sect Master of the Blood Sect, who had roamed the Black-Corner Region for many years and experienced countless storms, to look askance and feel a sense of dread.

At the same moment Yun Xiancheng swung his sword and went all out, the three girls—Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran, and Xiao Yi Xian—also seemed to have a telepathic connection, as if they had received some invisible signal. Without hesitation, they charged out from the shadows simultaneously!

As a Poison Master with extraordinary talent, Xiao Yi Xian was not polite at all from the start, directly deploying her signature skill.

She lightly raised her delicate hand and tapped her fingertip against the void. A pervasive mist of dark green poison, like a fierce beast or a flood, swept toward the group of miscellaneous Blood Sect disciples, surrounding them in an instant!

At the same time, this owner of the Calamity Poison Body, whose strength had already reached the Dou Wang level, fearlessly sought out two Blood Sect Elders who were also at the Dou Wang level, starting a fierce life-and-death struggle in the sky above the canyon!

As for Xiao Yan, she immediately locked her target onto the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect, who had dared to compete with her for the fragment of the Purification Lotus Demon Flame map at the auction! Without a word, she swung her mountain-heavy xuan heavy ruler, ruthlessly aiming it at the opponent’s head!

True to being an old hand who had struggled for years in the Black-Corner Region, the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect had clearly anticipated and prepared for such a sudden attack.

Although he was still somewhat confused as to which power these suddenly appearing black-robed figures belonged to—daring to launch such a blatant attack while their Sect Master was personally present.

But at this moment, Xiao Yan’s heavy and powerful xuan heavy ruler had already struck toward his face. He couldn’t afford to overthink and had to respond with all his strength! ”Clang!”

A deafening sound of metal clashing echoed through the canyon! Xiao Yan’s heavy ruler slammed heavily onto the black long saber in the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect’s hand, triggering a visible wave of air.

The Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect only felt an indescribable, massive force transfer over, shaking his arm until it went numb and making his internal organs tremble.

He was horrified, feeling that the strength erupted by this seemingly delicate girl before him simply didn’t seem like something a Great Dou Master should possess! The force of this strike was already enough to suppress him, a Dou Ling level expert!

What kind of monster is this? Even those so-called geniuses couldn’t possibly have such exaggerated strength!

Xiao Yan wouldn’t give her opponent any chance to breathe. Next, she ruthlessly and continuously swung the xuan heavy ruler, bombarding the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect like a violent storm!

Every strike made the heart of the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect leap in fear, leaving him with no power to fight back!

Finally, under this continuous and fierce offensive, the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect managed to catch a tiny opening between Xiao Yan’s combos. Like a frightened rabbit, he quickly pulled back to a safe distance from her.

He looked at the black-robed person holding the xuan heavy ruler with lingering fear, his eyes involuntarily revealing a bit of shock and... dread. This simply wasn’t the intensity and strength a Great Dou Master should have!

There is common knowledge in the world of cultivation: every breakthrough of a minor realm is an all-around strengthening and enhancement of the cultivator’s physical body, soul, and Dou Qi.

A lower realm facing a higher realm is a literal state of being inferior; this has been an unchanging iron law for thousands of years!

He considered himself a genius and was considered outstanding among those in the same realm, yet now, he had actually encountered a monster-level genius who was a hundred times more freakish than him!

”Blood Guards! Kill her for me!” In his panic, the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect immediately issued an order to deploy his troops. As the Young Sect Master of the Blood Sect, he naturally had a group of specially trained personal guards by his side.

The strength of these Blood Guards was mostly between high-star Great Dou Master and Dou Ling. Although their talent was mediocre, they were loyal, making them standard combat power for this realm.

Over twenty Blood Guards dressed in blood-red robes moved upon hearing the order, surrounding and attacking Xiao Yan together!

However, at the very moment they were about to reach Xiao Yan, a peerlessly sharp gale suddenly swept across! Hidden within this gale was an extremely sharp, heart-palpitating sword intent.

Although those Blood Guards were not fools, facing this sudden, eerie storm and sword qi, they were momentarily confused about its depth and didn’t dare to charge forward recklessly!

Nalan Yanran acted just in time, blocking the path between Xiao Yan and the group of Blood Guards.

Her long sword was held across the air, her expression cold and stern, like an inviolable goddess of an ice mountain, exuding an awe-inspiring aura of majesty!

This isn’t good! This is a large group of Dou Ling and Great Dou Masters. I’m afraid I might not be able to stop them all by myself.

Although she still appeared cold as frost and inviolable on the surface, Nalan Yanran was actually a bit flustered inside. However, if these guys thought she was fighting alone, they were dead wrong!

Nalan Yanran suddenly raised her head and shouted to Xiao Yi Xian, who was fighting the two Blood Sect Dou Wangs in mid-air: ”Xiao Yi Xian!” Although she didn’t specify what kind of help she needed, Xiao Yi Xian seemed to have a telepathic understanding with her and immediately

grasped her intention.

Her long, jade-like finger tapped lightly in the air. Suddenly, a massive amount of dark green poison gas descended from the sky like a bursting dam, instantly permeating the area around the Blood Guards!

Those colorless and odorless, yet extremely terrifying toxic gases began to corrode the flesh and bones of the Blood Guards at a visible speed, causing them agonizing pain and fits of mourning as they struggled in place like trapped beasts!

Seeing Xiao Yi Xian act, the corners of Nalan Yanran’s mouth curled up into a cold and elegant smile. Without hesitation, she stepped directly into the dark green poison mist.

She had originally thought she would inevitably be affected by those toxins. However, to her surprise, at this critical moment, the mysterious connection between their Cloud Fairy Skills automatically activated, allowing their attacks to not interfere with or affect one another!

Thus, Nalan Yanran was like a swimming dragon in the poison mist, charging and galloping through the group of Blood Guards who were already in miserable pain from the poison gas!

The peerlessly sharp long sword in her hand continuously harvested the lives of those Great Dou Master Blood Guards. Wherever she passed, corpses were strewn and wails were everywhere! Meanwhile, not far away, Xiao Yan also took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision, and put the xuan heavy ruler into her storage ring.

Medicine Lady was currently sitting atop a crystal-clear Ice Lotus, floating quietly above Xiao Yan’s head, her face carrying a hint of solemnity and gravity.

The fusion of Heavenly Flames, an idea that seemed like a fantasy, originated from Yun Xiancheng. However, whether it could truly succeed was still a huge challenge filled with unknowns for Xiao Yan.

”Green Lotus Core Flame.”

Xiao Yan murmured softly while slowly opening her left palm. A cluster of green flames ignited fiercely within her palm. ”Bone Chilling Flame...”

Next, she opened her right palm, and a cluster of snow-white flames danced lightly upon it. Those white flames looked incredibly cold, yet they contained an extremely terrifying high temperature that made people afraid to approach.

These two Heavenly Flames with completely different attributes and distinct auras were clearly separated in Xiao Yan’s hands, like fire and water, seemingly impossible to fuse together.

But there was not a hint of hesitation or doubt in Xiao Yan’s eyes.

Since her husband said these two Heavenly Flames could be fused, then they definitely could! She had a near-blind trust in Yun Xiancheng’s wisdom and judgment. Immediately, she prepared to attempt to forcibly fuse these two seemingly incompatible Heavenly Flames together!

Under her cautious control, the two clearly separated Heavenly Flames began to slowly approach, touch, and blend.

At that moment, a heart-palpitating, terrifying aura continuously emanated from Xiao Yan’s hand, as if it could spiral completely out of control at any time!

In the distance, Green Savage, who was quietly observing the battlefield situation, couldn’t help but nod slightly and sigh from the bottom of her heart after seeing the feat Xiao Yan was currently attempting:

”If this Dou Technique can truly be successfully unleashed, I’m afraid that even a Dou Huang expert would be seriously injured or even in danger of falling if hit head-on.

This is simply too incredible! One must know that Xiao Yan’s current cultivation is only at the Great Dou Master realm, yet she can perform a terrifying Dou Technique that even a Dou Huang expert would be wary of. Such talent and strength are truly unimaginable!”

”Husband’s idea is still the best!” Purple Wing, who was at the side, also couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, her eyes filled with admiration and respect. ”However, Xiao Yan’s current situation might be a bit dangerous...”

Green Savage looked at the terrifying energy in Xiao Yan’s hand, which was becoming more and more bloated and unstable, and a hint of worry and tension couldn’t help but flash in her eyes.

”What is there to be afraid of? With Husband here, are you still afraid of any accidents?” Purple Wing shook her head dismissively, her face carrying a bit of confidence and certainty.

255 Buddha Fire Lotus

While the two women were chatting, they simultaneously turned their gazes to the other side, toward Yun Xiancheng, who was in the middle of a fierce battle with the Sect Master of the Blood Sect.

At this time, Yun Xiancheng was still in his green robes, his hem fluttering and his hair blowing in the wind. He still appeared so poised, elegant, and ethereal, as if he were not undergoing a life-and-death struggle but was instead taking a leisurely stroll.

Under his supernatural control, the three-foot green peak sword in his hand continuously emitted sharp green sword lights. They fell densely around the Sect Master of the Blood Sect, forming a perfect sword net with almost no dead angles, making it difficult for that Dou Huang expert to parry, only barely managing to hold on.

The cold sweat on the forehead of the Sect Master of the Blood Sect had long since been rolling down like beads from a broken string.

While struggling to receive Yun Xiancheng’s wave after wave of sharp attacks that were like a violent storm, he was also filled with horror in his heart.

As a Dou Huang expert who had struggled in the Black-Corner Region for many years, the storms he had experienced and the so-called geniuses he had seen were simply countless.

But the poised and peerlessly handsome youth before him was the only one he had ever seen in his life!

Clearly, he was the one with the higher realm, and clearly, he was the ”senior” who had weathered many storms and undergone countless tribulations, so how could the current situation have turned out like this?

This simply defied common sense! Just who on earth was this kid?!

Regardless of how frantic the Sect Master of the Blood Sect became, Yun Xiancheng remained calm and composed, steadily maintaining his own rhythm, neither arrogant nor rash, neither hurried nor slow. He leisurely performed various forms of the Yunlan Sword Dance, moving as gracefully as a startled swan and as agilely as a swimming dragon.

Even in such an intense life-and-death struggle, he still maintained that amazing elegant demeanor, as if he were a celestial immortal stepping on the astral winds of the nine heavens, extraordinary and refined, untainted by a speck of dust!

Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, Yun Xiancheng noticed Xiao Yan in the distance, who was attempting to perform the ”Buddha’s Fury Fire Lotus.”

Those two completely different Heavenly Flame energies were continuously condensing and merging in her palm, and an extremely terrifying power was being nurtured within.

However, with Yun Xiancheng’s near-divine perception, he keenly noticed that this was Xiao Yan’s first time attempting to perform the ”Buddha’s Fury Fire Lotus,” and she was clearly unsure of the heat and precision required.

If that fire lotus were to collapse, it would no longer be a Dou Technique that Xiao Yan could control, and naturally, it would not be affected by the Cloud Fairy Skill. It might very well injure her herself, or even other allies!

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Yun Xiancheng’s figure flashed like a ghost, instantly appearing by Xiao Yan’s side!

He stood behind the young girl, tightly pulling her petite body into his warm embrace from behind. ”Relax, dear.”

Yun Xiancheng whispered comforting words into Xiao Yan’s ear, his tone as gentle as a May breeze. At the same time, his powerful and mysterious soul intertwined tightly with Xiao Yan’s still-naive soul, forming a wonderful resonance.

The mysterious connection between the Cloud Above Heavenly Palace Skill and the Cloud Fairy Skill was completely activated at this moment, forming an unprecedented tacit understanding and bond!

Immediately afterward, the thoughts of the two miraculously connected, as if they were one.

Yun Xiancheng’s unparalleled comprehension, which far exceeded that of ordinary people, also flowed continuously into Xiao Yan’s mind like a tide, instantly giving her an enlightening understanding and realization of the key points and tricks of Heavenly Flame fusion!

Husband’s embrace is so warm... Xiao Yan felt as if her entire being was wrapped in Yun Xiancheng’s warm and reliable aura, and a feeling of unprecedented security and happiness rose in her heart.

It was as if there was nothing else in the world worth worrying about. ”You dare to reveal such an obvious opening during battle?!”

Seeing Yun Xiancheng suddenly leave the battlefield to embrace Xiao Yan, the Sect Master of the Blood Sect was overjoyed, a flash of ruthlessness and triumph in his eyes.

He let out a roar and also rapidly formed hand seals, seemingly intending to take this opportunity to unleash some kind of ultimate move to kill both Xiao Yan and Yun Xiancheng in one fell swoop!

The entire body of the Sect Master of the Blood Sect was wrapped in a layer of thick, dark red blood, and a terrifying aura belonging to a Dou Huang expert was, without reservation,

released!

The celestial phenomena in the surroundings also underwent a change because of this; dark clouds gathered, and lightning flashed and thunder roared! A sea of blood surged, stretching for a hundred miles, with a terrifying aura sufficient to make ordinary people tremble with fear!

However, just when everyone thought that the Sect Master of the Blood Sect was about to unleash some earth-shattering ultimate move, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred!

Within that endless sea of blood, the figure of the Sect Master of the Blood Sect, taking advantage of the cover of the blood sea, actually began to retreat rapidly without hesitation, attempting to flee the scene!

”Hehe, only a fool would clash head-on with an enemy’s ultimate move!” The Sect Master of the Blood Sect sneered, a flash of triumph in his eyes.

As a veteran who had struggled in the Black-Corner Region for many years, he knew that survival was the first priority; only by staying alive would there be a future. Therefore, he would not foolishly be provoked and expose his trump cards prematurely to clash with the enemy!

His previous appearance of facing a great enemy and that so-called Dou Technique were actually just to better cover his escape from the beginning. Under his full burst of power, his speed had already exceeded the speed of sound!

As for the overwhelming sea of blood, he had also consciously arranged it in front of him to block his opponent’s pursuit and also to prevent the sound generated when breaking the sound barrier from revealing his tracks and location.

But what he didn’t know was that the faster his speed, the faster the surrounding airflow moved.

And at this moment, Yun Xiancheng, whose talent had already completely awakened, had a terrifying understanding and sensing of the wind between heaven and earth that was akin to complete control; the wind was the extension and manifestation of his will.

With a slight thought from Yun Xiancheng, a brilliant and beautiful Two-Colored Fire Lotus, surrounded by the invisible wind, chased after the Sect Master of the Blood Sect, who had already fled far away, like a meteor chasing the moon.

The fire lotus seemed slow, but it actually caught up with the fleeing blood-colored figure ahead at a terrifying speed several times the speed of sound. This was an incredibly powerful Dou Technique jointly performed by Yun Xiancheng and Xiao Yan, and its power was much stronger than when Xiao Yan performed it alone. ”Boom!”

A world-shaking explosion suddenly erupted in this canyon! A massive mushroom cloud rose into the air, dyeing half the sky red.

Under the direct impact of that Two-Colored Fire Lotus, the figure of the Sect Master of the Blood Sect was instantly and completely obliterated; he didn’t even have time to let out a scream before he perished!

And that terrifying shockwave, like crashing waves, rapidly spread in all directions, bringing with it bursts of doomsday-

like intense thrusts that shook the earth until it trembled!

After the impact, a huge, blazing sea of fire formed on the spot, completely swallowing up the previously pervasive sea of blood.

Within a hundred-mile radius, countless people who were startled all looked up simultaneously, staring dumbfounded at the sea of fire in the distant sky that blotted out the sun, their hearts filled with horror.

256 Girls of the Xiao Family

”Husband has made quite a name for himself in the Black-Corner Region as well.”

Xiao Xun’er stood on the observation deck at the heights of Jia Nan Academy, gazing at the brilliant and dazzling two-colored light in the distant sky, softly murmuring. In her clear, limpid eyes, the magnificent scene comparable to a sunrise was reflected, her gaze revealing a hint of longing and pride. With Xiao Xun’er’s current cultivation and perception abilities, she could naturally clearly capture such a long-distance phenomenon.

This Dou Huang-scale explosion was like a brilliant firework, dyeing half the sky in a strange color of interwoven green and white. ”Lord Guan’s talent is truly extraordinary. I knew he was no ordinary person; even without meeting the wind and clouds, he could still become a dragon.”

Xiao Xun’er thought to herself, her lips involuntarily curling up into a proud and sweet smile. As the Second Miss of the Gu Clan, only a man like him was fit to be her husband.
