The Battle Through Heaven
Fought
With the Dou Qi robe covering his body, Xiao Yan could clearly feel that his body condition had improved greatly. He immediately grabbed the Heavy Xuan Ruler on his back tightly and pulled it forcefully. Following the soft voice, the Heavy Xuan Ruler pierced through the ground and created a deep imprint.
With his hands tightly holding onto that heavy ruler, Xiao Yan's gaze carefully swept over the surrounding mist that had enveloped the room.
When the purple-coloured Dou Qi robe that was emitting Purple Flame appeared on Xiao Yan's body, a soft, surprised breath was clearly emitted from the white-colored fog around him.
Evidently, the mysterious old man did not expect Xiao Yan to be able to summon a Dou Qi robe that was accompanied by a Dou Qi flame.
"Old Man, I have no ill intentions and I don't want to disturb the isolation of the old man. It's just that this map fragment is very important to me. I beg the old master to accommodate me! " As his gaze swept around, Xiao Yan shouted.
"Hmphs. I spent a lot of time trying to get this thing. Although I still don't know exactly what it is for despite studying it for over a decade, I at least know that the secret it holds is not something small. You want me to hand it to you for no reason? In dreams!" From within the piercing fog of ice, the old man laughed coldly.
Xiao Yan frowned. He was about to open his mouth again when his heart suddenly shook. The heavy ruler in his hand was quickly placed in front of him before his body hurriedly hid behind it.
"Well ..." Following the soft sound of the wind breaking, some white-colored ice shot out from the fog. They finally let out a clanging sound as they knocked the Heavy Xuan Ruler in front of Xiao Yan.
After the ice hit Heavy Xuan Ruler, they suddenly turned into puddles of ice water and coated the ruler's body. At the same time, the hand that Xiao Yan used to hold onto the Heavy Xuan Ruler felt an ice-cold feeling continuously flowing into his body.
Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly. He gently flicked his finger and a purple-colored flame rose from his palm. After which, it quickly swept across the entire surface of the ruler and melted all the ice and cold air on it.
"What's? Purple colored flame? How unexpected that you actually have so many different unique things at such a young age. No wonder you are so brave. " Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, the old man hiding in the mist once again said in surprise.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes and did not reply. His gaze locked tightly onto the surrounding fog. His footsteps followed the route he remembered in his mind and retreated.
"While my strength cannot be compared to the past after being hurt by a creature worthy of death, it is not difficult to handle a little fly like you!" Noticing Xiao Yan's tacit action, the old man laughed coldly from within the fog. A white figure suddenly shot out from the fog and closed the gap between it and Xiao Yan with lightning speed.
The old man's sudden attack caused a shocked expression to appear on Xiao Yan's face. His palm tightly held the heavy ruler and smashed fiercely towards the human figure in front of him.
Looking at the approaching great ruler with the sound of an oppressive wind, the old man's hand quickly formed a seal as he gently shouted, "Ice Mirror chunks!"
Following the seal formed by the old man's hand, the white-colored Dou Qi in front of him suddenly started to change. A moment later, an ice mirror with a width and height of about half a meter suddenly coagulated and formed in front of him.
"Bang!" The heavy ruler fiercely slashed down and finally struck the ice mirror hard. Instantly, Xiao Yan's expression changed. He realized through his senses that the moment the heavy ruler slashed through the ice mirror, a powerful retreat force strangely shot upwards. Finally, it threw the unprepared Xiao Yan backwards.
Seeing the pale face of Xiao Yan being thrown backwards, the old man once again laughed coldly. He waved his hand and dozens of ice-shaped spirals quickly formed in front of him. When the old man waved his hand again, they howled as they explosively shot towards Xiao Yan from all directions.
After dragging his feet to the ground for a certain distance, Xiao Yan lifted his head and watched the large number of ice pricks coming towards him and ice energy mixed between them. He furrowed his brows and his feet suddenly stomped on the ground. After the explosion, his body shot upwards violently.
After dodging the ice attack while his body was in the air, Xiao Yan suddenly twisted his body. The ruler Xuan Heavy in his hand used spinning force as it left Xiao Yan's hand and violently and furiously shot towards the old man.
The heavy ruler darted out and under his great burden, he flew forward as if he had shattered the air. There was a faint purple arc that appeared on its surface and left a shadow line behind it.
Seeing Sovereign Xuan Weight explosively shooting at him, the old man's brows twitched in surprise. The young man in front of him gave him too many surprises.
However, the surprise was still only a surprise. The old man showed no mercy when attacking. With his palms open and closed, he created many small threads of ice. He threw his hand and threads of ice shot upwards before they headed towards the heavy ruler from all directions and disturbed him. In an instant, it tied the heavy ruler into a thick layer of white-colored ice thread.
Under the disturbance caused by the threads of ice from all directions, the ferocious power that the heavy ruler carried was quickly eliminated. When it was about half a meter away from the old man's head, it finally stopped.
Carelessly glancing at the heavy ruler who was tightly shut by the thread of ice above his head, the old man laughed coldly. He swung his palm and the ruler hissed as it spun in the air and under the influence of the icy thread, the ruler fiercely shot angrily towards Xiao Yan who was in midair and did not have the support to borrow the strength.
Watching the approaching heavy ruler, Xiao Yan helplessly shook his head. His back shook slightly and his pair of Purple Cloud Wings stretched out. His wings flapped, pushing his figure to quickly rise higher. Finally, he dodged the heavy ruler that shot towards him.
"What's? Dou Qi Wings? " Looking at the pair of wings that slid off Xiao Yan's back, the old man's eyes shrank as he said in surprise. A moment later, he shook his head. With a frown, he said, "It doesn't look like Dou Qi Wings. Don't tell me it's a flying Dou Technique? "
"good. Why is this child filled with treasure? " The old man slowly shook his head as he said in a stunned voice.
Ignoring how shocked the Purple Cloud Wings looked to the old man, Xiao Yan took advantage of it because he was distracted and pounced forward ferociously. The purple colored flame in his hand writhed as he flicked his finger so that a thread of Purple Flame was shot out. The strand quickly found the main ice thread connected to the heavy ruler and burned it.
Losing the thrust of the ice thread, the Heavy Xuan Ruler quickly fell. Xiao Yan flapped his wings and quickly charged forward. When his ten fingers flicked, the Purple Flame in his hand formed many small flames that completely burned all the threads of ice on the Heavy Xuan Ruler.
After completely removing the ice thread, Xiao Yan finally dared to once again hold the Heavy Xuan Ruler in his hand. Holding the Heavy Xuan Ruler, his wings quickly flapped once more and Xiao Yan's body suddenly shot into the air.
Standing on the ground, the old man noticed Xiao Yan who intended to break through the roof to escape. His face could not help but form a mocking and joking expression.
Xiao Yan's increasing speed was getting faster. However, after the Purple Cloud Wings flapped twice, he felt a dense cold air radiating from above his head.
Sensing this ice-cold air, Xiao Yan felt his heart tighten. Ruler Xuan Heavy suddenly stabbed furiously above his head.
"About!"
The heavy ruler that was piercing upwards seemed to clash with something, emitting a clear sound. At the same time, several small pieces of ice slowly fell down and fell on Xiao Yan's face. That ice-cold feeling caused his heart to sink. He did not expect that the old man would be able to turn the room into a hard igloo in such a short time.
Giving up his intention to forcefully break the hole, Xiao Yan gradually flapped his wings. His body descended as he coldly stared at the old man standing in the mist.
"Ck ck, rare flying Dou Technique, unique purple colored flame, strange agility Dou Technique, you are far beyond the strength of an average Dou Shi. Wah, are you the disciple of the Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect? Or are you the young master of a very large clan? Maybe you are a member of the royal family? " Lifting his head, the old man asked with great interest as he looked at Xiao Yan, who was flapping his purplish-black wings in midair.
Xiao Yan licked his lips as he stared carefully at the old man and did not reply.
"Even if you had the identity I've stated, you wouldn't be able to take that piece of the map and leave here today." Touching the scar on his old face with his hand, the old man said in a voice that gradually turned colder.
"Although you have many different techniques, you are merely a Dou Shi. My current strength may have been greatly reduced but it is not difficult for me to finish you off. " The old voice said softly, "Give me the shards and I'll let you go. Nor do I want others to ruin my years of secluded lifestyle. "
Observing this stubborn old man, Xiao Yan sighed helplessly. He laughed bitterly in his heart, "Teacher, it seems like you have to act. I'm no match for him. Although his strength was unrivalled in the past, as he said: To finish me off is not a difficult thing. "
"Ke Ke, it's not hard. After all, your difference in strength is more than two classes. Moreover, the Dou Technique that the man possessed was no weaker than yours. The previous exchanges were only meant to test your strength. If he really gets serious, you won't be able to survive more than five exchanges. " Yao Lao's voice sounded in Xiao Yan's heart.
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly and nodded. After a brief exchange of thoughts with the old man, he naturally learned of the other's strength. If not for the fact that the old man could not turn his Dou Qi into wings, Xiao Yan might have long since been captured.
"Ah leave it to me, I will control your body for a while."
Regarding this matter, Yao Lao did not refuse. He knew that even if he wanted to use real combat to train Xiao Yan, there was also his limit. With the strength of Xiao Yan who had just reached the Dou Shi level, it would undoubtedly be a joke if he went to challenge someone whose fighting ability once belonged to a Dou Huang.
"Old Master, I've told you that this piece of map piece is something that I must obtain!" Xiao Yan first nodded his head before he shrugged to the old man. Suddenly, he slowly closed his eyes.
Seeing Xiao Yan's strange actions, the old man felt a little stunned. He frowned and a moment later, his expression suddenly changed. He saw a ferocious strength that was not inferior to his suddenly burst out from the young man's body in midair.
"How is this possible?" Sensing the strength of Xiao Yan's pressure that continued to climb up, the old man's bland face finally revealed a shocked expression.
