119. The Power of the Crimson Lotus
Seeing Lu Huangtian rushing towards him, Xiao Yan's movements suddenly quickened, and his Dou Zun-level Dou Qi circulated wildly within his body.
"Quick!" Xiao Yan's hands moved so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
Lu Huangtian was also extremely fast, appearing in front of Xiao Yan in a few flashes. Just as Lu Huangtian reached Xiao Yan, Xiao Xun'er reached out from behind Xiao Yan, and golden flames burst forth, burning all the Dou Qi in this area. Xiao Yan then used this cover to retreat at top speed.
As Xiao Yan retreated, he also paid close attention to Xiao Xun'er's situation, since Xun'er had to transmit golden flames to him while also helping him to block the enemy.
Fortunately, apart from being a little weak, Xun'er had no other problems.
Lu Huangtian did not give up after his first attack failed, and continued to pursue relentlessly. Just as he was about to reach Xiao Yan again, Xiao Yan stretched out his hands, as if to throw the Fire Lotus to Lu Huangtian.
Lu Huangtian himself was not prepared to directly receive the fusion of three different flames with his face, so he immediately dodged to the side, only to find that nothing had happened at all, and he had been tricked again.
"Damn it!" Lu Huangtian's eyes were filled with rage as he was about to step forward and kill Xiao Yan.
Suddenly, a pair of hands appeared beneath his feet—a pair of pitch-black, soul-like hands.
He was immediately bound to the spot. As soon as Lu Huangtian's aura erupted, purple lightning shattered the black hand made of his soul into nothingness.
As soon as the black hand was defeated, He Kui, who was some distance away, also spat out a mouthful of blood, but looking in Xiao Yan's direction, he murmured, "Xiao Yan, everything depends on you!"
Beside him were Lion Roar Valley and Yang Zhishuang, whose auras were also weak. They were almost exhausted after the series of battles. Now, if there was any hope left, it all depended on Xiao Yan!
At the same time, after several attempts to stop him, the flames in Xiao Yan's hand finally stabilized, and a dazzling lotus flower exuding an aura of destruction and death was born in Xiao Yan's hand, spinning.
The three different flames blended perfectly, but they were also extremely violent. There was no doubt that even the slightest conflict would cause this terrifying thing to explode completely.
"Xun'er, you can..." Xiao Yan excitedly wanted to tell Xun'er that she could leave, but Xun'er's arms, which were originally wrapped around Xiao Yan, suddenly loosened.
Xiao Yan immediately put one arm around Xiao Xun'er again and found that the girl had fainted because she had exhausted her fighting spirit from exerting so much force.
As Xiao Yan flew away with lightning speed to evade Lu Huangtian, his heart was breaking. Xiao Xun'er's contribution to the battlefield today was no less than his own, but human strength has its limits!
He had the help of the old medicine master and the nourishment of the fire lotus karmic fire, but Xun'er obviously did not.
A feeling of heartache spread through Xiao Yan, but it did not affect his rationality. Xiao Yan returned to the one-eyed man.
The one-eyed creature, seemingly possessing sentience, sensed the aura of the three-colored fire lotus and even showed a hint of emotion: fear!
Lu Huangtian also approached the one-eyed man and hurriedly said to Xiao Yan, "Xiao Yan, let's talk this over. I won't stop the people from the Heavenly Serpent Manor from leaving, how about it?"
Lu Huangtian had considered killing Xiao Yan, but with Xiao Yan's three-colored Buddha's Fury Lotus in his hand, he was more afraid of something unexpected happening. He had no confidence that he could kill a three-star Dou Zun instantly.
Hearing Lu Huangtian's submissive tone and the pleading look in One-Eyed's eyes, Xiao Yan frowned and asked, "Absolutely no interference?"
Seeing Xiao Yan's reaction, Lu Huangtian was delighted and stepped forward kindly, saying, "That's right, all your people can leave..."
But Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly turned icy cold: "So you still don't want this thing to stop? Then destroy it!"
Xiao Yan raised his hand, and the fire lotus in his hand slowly spun, rushing towards the blood-red giant eye at an extremely fast speed.
"Damn it!"
Lu Huangtian's entire body began to change back to blue and white patterns, and a series of cracking sounds rang out as Lu Huangtian's Dou Zun-level Dou Qi began to pour out completely.
This space began to freeze directly into ice. Lu Huangtian used the faint moisture in the air as a medium to freeze this space.
If a powerful individual were to approach this space, they would likely be instantly frozen by the terrifying extreme cold.
The three-colored fire lotus also rapidly approached in the next moment. As soon as the fire lotus got close, the condensed ice began to disintegrate instantly, and wisps of thick white mist rose up, which were eventually evaporated by the high temperature contained within the fire lotus.
Everyone witnessed this area and awaited the earth-shattering power of the Fire Lotus. Only Xiao Yan, after throwing out the Fire Lotus, began to flee at top speed with Xun'er in his arms, without stopping for a moment.
"Quick! Everyone, do your best to defend!" Yang Zhishuang suddenly shouted to the people on the ground!
Immediately, a deep voice seemed to resonate deep within everyone's soul, causing their hearts to skip a beat. An unusual and terrifying pressure caused their hands and feet to tremble slightly.
"Bang! Crack!"
A massive, multicolored wave of fire, exceeding a thousand feet in height, swept across the sky. Xiao Yan, with his entire body's Dou Qi protecting Xiao Xun'er, was directly engulfed by the sea of fire.
The spreading sea of flames pulverized the buildings in the central area of Tianlan City, turning them to dust. The defenses erected by the combined strength of the four sects—Tianshe Mansion, Minghua Tower, Qunying Alliance, and Shiming Sect—were also directly impacted, causing ripples in their defenses.
Yang Yue's face also turned pale: he had guessed that Xiao Yan's attack would be extraordinary, but he did not expect it to be so terrifying!
"Defend with all your might! Don't let your guard down!" Yang Zhishuang and the other two also arrived at the position after the impact of the sea of fire, but the Dou Zun powerhouse's perception told her that the real explosion had not yet begun.
The next moment, a dazzling, colorful pillar of light suddenly shot into the sky from the center of the sea of fire, and the towering pillar of light could be clearly seen from a hundred miles away.
The instant the pillar of light rose, a massive fireball, approximately fifty feet in size, slowly rose from the sea of fire. The destructive power contained within the fireball caused the surrounding space to distort violently, even creating dark spatial rifts.
The enormous fireball that suddenly rose up was like another sun, releasing terrifying temperatures. The destructive power it contained caused everyone present, including its creator Xiao Yan, to turn pale. If this fireball were to explode, probably very few people in Tianlan City would survive.
Although they had escaped being devoured by the blood-red eyeballs, they were now facing death in the sea of fire, and despair filled everyone's minds.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a low sigh was heard.
"well……"
