The Battle Through Heaven
Yao Lao Taking Action
In the environment of the pervasive ice fog, it was as if someone was walking into a space filled with cold air. The white mist around him was widespread and one could not see the end.
Amidst the white mist, the old man raised his head as he looked at the young man in the air with a astonished face. A moment later, his expression gradually turned serious as he growled in a low voice, "Well, what is this Secret Technique?"
It was not at all strange that the old man would feel so shocked. Although in this Dou Qi continent, there was no shortage of some Secret Techniques that could quickly increase one's strength, the rank of this Secret Technique was at least that of Di Rank. In this Dou Qi continent, the person or force that could unleash such a Secret Technique was only some ultimate strength or an extremely strong person that could be counted with a finger. In the eyes of these ultimately powerful powers or people, the powerful people in the Jia Ma Empire were undoubtedly like fireflies competing with the bright moon on their brightness.
"Don't tell me this brat came from one of those powers?" A shocking thought flashed across the old man's heart. Under the shock of the terrifying and aloof power of those powers, she found it hard to keep her calm.
"No way! Even though this brat had many different unique treasures on him, the Qi Methods he trained in seemed to be weaker than the Xuan Class. It definitely doesn't look like that force of force! " The old man was a little shocked in his heart but a moment later, he began to slowly suppress these feelings as he comforted himself.
The old man gradually recovered his composure. His expression was solemn as his pair of dry hands clung to each other. The ice-cold and cold mist around him quickly gathered together and finally formed a snow-white ice spear between his hands. Despite having used his Dou Qi to solidify into an ice spear, the old man still felt insecure. He used one hand to quickly form a seal before gently shouting, "Ice Spirit Armor!"
Following his call, the ice fog that spread around him immediately formed a thick ice vest with a twinkling cold ice luster.
The weapon in the old man's hand and the ice protector in his body were all formed from his Dou Qi coagulation. At the very least, it required the strength of a Dou Ling to nearly achieve this.
On the Dou Qi continent, most people, after reaching Da Dou Shi, would be able to expel Dou Qi from their bodies. For example, they could use their Dou Qi to cover their weapons and greatly increase their offensive strength. When they reached the Dou Ling level, they would be able to condense and form weapons and protectors that were entirely made of Dou Qi, just like that old man did. This type of weapon and protection was naturally something that could not be compared to ordinary weapons or armor.
By being able to cause the old man to use his full strength and become serious, it could be seen what sort of increased strength Xiao Yan had increased into the old man's heart.
Xiao Yan ignored the heavily armed appearance of the old man below. In the air, the pressure emitted from within Xiao Yan's body grew richer. At some point, he suddenly howled long towards the sky. The long shout contained a turbulent Dou Qi which blew away the mist that permeated beneath it and spread nearly half of it.
Seeing Xiao Yan only use a long cry to break the thick fog, the old man's expression once again changed. He did not dare to underestimate Xiao Yan. Swinging the ice spear in his hand, a large amount of extremely sharp ice quickly formed in the air above his head. After which, they carried a piercing wind sound as they shot towards Xiao Yan.
In the air, the howls slowly stopped. Xiao Yan flapped his wings and his body was like a boulder as it quickly swooped down. He nonchalantly stared at the ice heading towards him from all directions before facing each other and gently clapped.
After the applause, a formless energy spread from his hand in a lightning-like manner. After which, the ice coming towards him from all directions let out a cracking sound...present a spectacular scene as they turned into a cold white powder in the air …
"This is Spiritual Strength?" Seeing his rapidly spinning ice turn into powder without the slightest premonition, the white-haired old man fell silent for a bit before shouting involuntarily,
Ignoring the old man's shock, Xiao Yan flapped his wings and directly flashed towards the space above the old man. His hand tightly gripped onto the Heavy Xuan Ruler and suddenly slashed downwards.
The Heavy Xuan Sword wave this time around almost completely shaved the air in half. The space where the heavy ruler passed by was actually left with a faint black scar ..
Although the attack this time did not have the strong voice like before, the old man's face became much more serious as the heavy ruler swung. His heart clearly knew that even though this attack was stealthy, the destructive ability it possessed was something that could not be compared to previous attacks …
Carefully taking a step back, the old man tightened his fists. Instantly, the ice spear shot out while carrying a bone-chilling cold power.
Seeing that the old man had actually chosen to receive a direct attack, a faint mocking glint flashed across Xiao Yan's eyes. The heavy ruler suddenly sped up before finally clashing with an ice spear strike.
As the heavy ruler and the ice spears collided with each other, ferocious energy ripples immediately scattered from the point of contact and shook the floor of the room until numerous spider webs like lines of cracks appeared.
"Rest!" As the contact occurred, the ice spear was compressed into an arc-like shape. When Xiao Yan coldly shouted, the ice spear suddenly broke out with cracking sounds and ice shavings shot out in all directions.
In order for the old man's weapon to be easily broken by the opponent in just one round, the old man's expression quickly turned ugly. He did not expect that young man would turn into a completely different person in just a few minutes. The strength he was showing at the moment was simply not comparable to what he had shown before!
If Xiao Yan was only a Dou Shi before, he had currently at least reached the Dou Wang level. This terrifying gap caused the old man to be a little aghast in his heart. TL: Dou Shi -> Da Dou Shi -> Dou Ling -> Dou Wang
Before the old man could relax after refining the seven ice mirrors, he heard a clear voice over and over again. Lifting his eyes, he was surprised to find that Xiao Yan, who was carrying the heavy ruler in his hand, was turning carelessly as he charged forward. The ice mirrors along the way were burnt into nothingness by the purple-colored flames on his body before they could even make contact.
"Fucking brat, I can't believe that after living in isolation for over twenty years, I actually won't have the strength to take revenge against a young brat like you!" Repeatedly and quickly attacked by Xiao Yan, the old man gradually became angry. His eyebrows shot up as his feet hit the ground. Ice Dou Qi cooled several meters of the surrounding land so that a thick layer of ice was formed.
"Xuan Ice Killing Vortex!"
The old man's hand quickly formed a seal in front of him before his throat suddenly let out a low roar. Instantly, many crescent-shaped blades appeared and revolved beside him.
The ice continues to increase in number. In the end, they completely covered the old man's body inside. Then, the ice blades connected to each other, forming a small spiral storm that was fully formed from the integration of the ice blades.
"Go!" From within the storm, a low shout was issued. The ice sword storm suddenly spun towards Xiao Yan with the intention to kill. Along the way, the base of the room was shattered with the appearance of many sewers. Some water crystal counters even exploded as the slashed ice blades passed by. Crystal fragments that appear as smooth as a mirror.
With cold eyes, Xiao Yan watched the old man who attacked him using that ferocious attack. His footsteps suddenly stopped while the purple-coloured flames and ferocious power enveloping his body were completely drawn into his body.
The current Xiao Yan did not have any defense on his body. Even Sovereign Xuan Heavy was left behind and stuck by his side.
"Well, you're looking for death!" Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, the somewhat furious shout of the old man was emitted from within the vortex of the ice blades. Clearly, the old man was furious at Xiao Yan's actions which implied that he was underestimating his opponent. Originally, with the old man's position, it was somewhat inappropriate for him to attack someone from the younger generation. He had now used all of his strength but in this state, his opponent had actually chosen to give up on defense. This undoubtedly dealt a blow to the old man's self-esteem as someone strong.
Ignoring the old man's anger, Xiao Yan felt an oppressive feeling being emitted from the space in front of him. He gently sighed as he slowly extended his hand. After which, it gently shook and a thick white flame suddenly soared high.
After a thick white flame appeared, Xiao Yan's feet suddenly stepped on the ground. Following the sound of an explosion, his body became like an arrow released from a bow, turning into a trail of light as he shot towards the storm of small-scale ice blades rotating towards him in a lightning-like manner.
"Because you seek death, don't blame me!"
Seeing Xiao Yan who had actually decided to face his attack head-on, the old man inside the storm coldly shouted. Although his current strength was much weaker than before, not many people would choose to face his attacks head-on when he displayed this High Xuan level ‘Mysterious Ice Killer Swirl. Xiao Yan's current actions undoubtedly made the old man feel that the former was seeking death.
Ignoring the furious cry, Xiao Yan instantly rushed into the storm. His arm was almost entirely covered by the thick white flames as his arm was suddenly thrust into the storm.
When his arm was put into the storm, terrifying energy ripples suddenly scattered across the interior of the room and raised the floor to a height of nearly half a meter.
"Ka cha"
Xiao Yan maintained his posture with his hands inserted into the storm. The instantaneous traffic jam occurred before the originally fast-spinning ice wind storm suddenly began to slow down. Under the sound of cracks, the ice windstorm completely froze into a huge snow-white ice pillar.
Observing the ice pillar in front of him indifferently, Xiao Yan slowly withdrew his hand from within and gently tapped on the ice pillar with his finger.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the ice pillar suddenly exploded forcefully and turned into a cold white powder that sprinkled from the air onto the ground.
The explosion of the ice pillar revealed the old man inside who was covered by a thin layer of thin ice.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the old man. A moment later, he once again opened it. Right now, the indifference and experience of living inside those dark black eyes had completely disappeared. Replacing him was a power that a young man should have.
"Old Man, you've lost. Sorry, but this is mine. " Clapping his hands, Xiao Yan smiled at the old man as he spoke.
