Chapter 1398: Dou Emperor Xiao Ling vs. Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor
Bang!
At the instant the words sounded, a colorful stream of light suddenly shot from afar, and in the blink of an eye it had already reached a distance of ten thousand zhang before the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor.
As soon as that stream of light stopped, it quickly took the form of a young person.
Looking over, it was exactly Lin Feng's appearance.
"Is it you, Xiao Yan?"
As for the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor, upon seeing the former's appearance clearly, her pupils constricted and her pretty face suddenly changed.
Although she rarely interacted with this Xiao Yan, the opponent had been opposing her and her allies for so long that she still knew some information about him.
However, soon the blue-haired woman clenched her jade hand, gazed at him with disbelief, and exclaimed in utter confusion: "Our sect previously saw you as merely a Nine-Star Dou Saint, and moreover, the Dou Qi Continent should not have any new Dou Saints appear—so how did you become a Dou Emperor?"
While speaking, her mind was also frantically recalling some information about him.
She did not understand how this Xiao Yan had obtained Origin Qi and advanced to Dou Emperor.
"Damn, it was bad enough that a native Dou Emperor appeared up front, but I never expected that just after dealing with that one, another new Dou Emperor would show up!!"
Thinking this, the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor was also utterly devastated.
After all, she had finally dealt with that native Dou Emperor who possessed many means and was like a madman.
She hadn't even caught her breath before yet another new Dou Emperor arrived—this endless battle, who could endure it!
"Hehe, how I became a Dou Emperor is none of your concern. Right now, you should worry about yourself."
As his words fell, Lin Feng's mind stirred, and in an instant, towering colorful flames surged forth.
Without waiting for the blue-haired woman to react, the awe-inspiring, violent flames blanketed the entire Zhongzhou Continent in the blink of an eye.
And such a massive inferno's destructive power was unimaginably great.
Under the scorching of the sky-filling colorful flames, all liquid water on the Zhongzhou Continent instantly evaporated completely.
At the same time, the land below began to melt at a visible speed under this terrifying heat.
"It seems you've been harboring a 'clam and snipe, the fisherman gains' mindset, secretly preparing many things behind the scenes."
Gazing at the sky, the astonishing heat that made this ice-attribute cultivator feel slightly uncomfortable caused the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor to furrow her brows.
Her tone also grew unusually solemn in the meantime.
After all, she could faintly sense that this Xiao Yan before her would likely be even harder to deal with than the previous native Dou Emperor.
No, she as she is now simply lacks the ability to handle him.
In the earlier battle against that native Dou Emperor skilled in using soul and blood attributes, all her means were exhausted.
Even her stamina is now less than half of its peak.
If she were to truly fight him to the death, she does not know whether this Xiao Yan would die.
But she herself would surely repeat the fate of that previous Dou Emperor.
Thinking this, the Spirit Communication Sect hesitated not at all, immediately turned and fled southward at full speed.
After all, she is not stupid; staying to fight a newly risen Dou Emperor at his peak would surely mean her death.
Therefore, she could only choose to run!
"Hehe, wanting to run? That depends on whether I agree."
And Chen Shuo, watching the opponent's fleeing back, curled the corner of his mouth slightly upward.
He had made so many preparations; if he let the opponent escape unscathed,
then he might as well not continue living—just self-detonate on the spot to avoid bringing shame to the Dou Emperor realm.
"Hehe, beautiful lady, you'd better stay put and let the master handle you; if you run away, Miss Xiao Ling will surely suffer greatly when she returns."
Just as the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor sped beyond ten thousand li, a crisp teasing voice suddenly rang out in this sky.
Immediately, the blue-haired woman felt a terrifying heat rapidly approaching from above her head.
Seeing this, she quickly looked up.
Next, she saw a ten-thousand-zhang colorful fire dragon racing toward her in the sky.
"Damn it!"
At this sight, the blue-haired woman silently cursed.
However, she quickly gathered the surrounding heavenly and earthly energy, launching a similarly massive blue ice pillar.
"Boom!"
The next moment, fire and ice violently collided in the sky.
The front half of the colorful fire dragon was instantly shattered by the ice pillar.
Turning into countless flames that swept across the sky.
At the same time, the blue ice pillar launched by the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor likewise shattered instantly.
Turning into drifting blue powder that fell slowly from the heavens.
In the firelight's reflection, these ice crystals appeared extraordinarily beautiful.
However, the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor now had no leisure to gaze at it.
After launching that ice pillar, she immediately turned and fled without looking back.
After all, she is not stupid; if she does not run now, she will soon lose any chance to escape.
"Whoosh!"
However, she had barely run a short distance when she saw the flames in the sky suddenly churn violently.
Immediately, gusts of howling wind kept ringing in her ears.
At the same time, the incessant wind from all directions kept pouring into her mind.
In an instant, a severe headache assailed her continuously, making her feel terribly uncomfortable.
And as the headache persisted, the Spirit Communication Sect Old Ancestor suddenly felt a surge of brutality welling up endlessly from her heart.
At this moment, she was like she'd just gotten her period, her temper flaring at the slightest provocation.
Especially when she sensed the aura that clung to her within the fire sea in the sky, she felt unusually irritable.
Feeling deeply embarrassed, she especially wanted to stop, give up fleeing, and settle the score with her opponent!
"No, that's not right; this wind sound is an attack that can influence people's emotions."
However, the blue-haired woman soon woke with a start, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on her fragrant back.
Compared to the previous native Dou Emperor, Xiao Yan's methods, though showing little movement, were far harder to guard against.
"Hehe, beautiful lady, why are you running? Xiao Ling hasn't had enough fun yet."
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief after narrowly escaping disaster, a clear, teasing voice sounded beside her without warning.
"Whoosh"
When the Tong Ling Sect Elder turned his head, he suddenly noticed that, at some point, a colorful-haired girl about eighteen or nineteen had appeared beside him.
"Hehe, beautiful lady, my master loves seeing a high-and-mighty beauty like you groveling beneath him, accepting his impact. Or you could stay and become my master's little wife, adding another veteran Dou Emperor—he'd surely agree."
Seeing the other look over, Xiao Ling's lips instantly curled into a sly smile.
"He thinks he's worthy of being my dao partner? Dream on, get lost!"
Facing the teasing, the blue-haired woman showed no hesitation and directly stated her attitude.
Hearing that, Xiao Ling's smile vanished instantly, and she said in a fierce-cute tone: "Since you refuse a toast and choose a penalty, Xiao Ling will have to test the strength of this newly promoted Dou Emperor, capture you and hand you over to my master. Then, just like the woman named Gu Xun'er, you'll be played with by my master until you call him dad."
As soon as her words fell, her figure flashed, appearing in the sky before the blue-haired woman, blocking her path.
"Refining Heaven Ancient Formation!"
Upon arriving ahead, Xiao Ling quickly formed seals with both hands, then waved her small hand and shouted.
With Xiao Ling's shout, the endless fire sea in the sky instantly began to surge wildly.
"Boom—"
At the same time, the muffled thunderous rumble continued to spread slowly through this space.
Thereafter, beneath the blue-haired woman's grim expression, a massive colorful fire formation tens of thousands of zhang tall slowly emerged from the void in the sky.
"Boom—"
However, as that super grand formation appeared in the sky, the mountains and rivers of the Zhongzhou Continent beneath where she stood also began to violently churn.
Then, amidst the continent's violent tremors, a similarly enormous fire formation slowly rose from the ground.
"You're really well prepared—are you that afraid our sect will run away?"
Seeing the two enormous fire formations above and below, the Tong Ling Sect Elder's heart sank, and he involuntarily clenched his silver teeth.
"Hehe, beautiful lady, you're such a precious prize; Xiao Ling won't let you escape. While there's still a chance, I advise you to surrender obediently. Otherwise, I'll turn you into a meat*&;amp;amp; *device, and that won't be fun."
With the formation complete, Xiao Ling lightly spread her hands, smiling as she embraced the sky.
However, facing such words, the Tong Ling Sect Elder's face darkened as he gazed at the white-skirted girl fluttering in the distance.
"Well, it seems you've refused."
Seeing her reaction, Xiao Ling knew the blue-haired woman certainly didn't want to serve her master.
Thinking of this, her expression instantly turned stern.
Endless colorful flames surged ceaselessly from the fire sea in the sky, pouring down into the formation below.
As the sky‑flooding flames poured in, the upper and lower formations suddenly flashed with a blinding fiery light.
Immediately, the formation emitted a powerful, scorching colorful ring of light.
From the formation's center, it spread rapidly toward the edges.
"Boom—"
When that shockwave erupted, its terrifying might instantly shook the entire heaven and earth.
These two sky‑covering colorful fire formations, like two enormous fire discs, began to rotate slowly.
In this process, the formation acted like two magnets, mutually attracting and drawing each other closer.
As for the Tong Ling Sect Elder trapped inside the formation, amidst the upper and lower grand formations he was like an ant.
Compared to them, he appeared utterly insignificant.
"Looks like today can't be settled peacefully."
At the same time, the blue-haired woman looked at the enormous circular formation enclosing the space she occupied, slowly contracting toward the center, and felt a wave of vexation.
Just as her mood worsened, Xiao Ling pointed her jade finger from afar and shouted again: "Refining Heaven Ancient Formation, refine her!"
"Bang"
As soon as her words fell, the two heaven‑covering fire formations above and below the pair both shuddered violently.
"Swish! Swish!"
Immediately, two colorful fire pillars tens of thousands of zhang in diameter shot up and down from the two formations.
Their target needed no explanation—it was the blue-haired woman inside the formation!
"Whoosh"
Facing that powerful attack, the Tong Ling Sect Elder drew several deep breaths to force himself to stay calm.
Because she knew, the more critical the moment, the greater the need for steadiness.
Otherwise, there would truly be no hope at all.
Immediately, with a thought, she drew in the surrounding scorching heavenly energy that had been baked by the flames' high heat.
She then lightly pushed with both hands, unleashing two ice pillars at full force, which surged forward to meet the fire pillars attacking from above and below.
「Bang! Bang! 」
Four huge pillars collided; in an instant, an earth-shaking explosion rang out, spreading within the vast fire formation that blotted out the sky.
At the same time, amidst this tremendous impact sound, the two shockwaves of ice and fire suddenly expanded outward.
Forcefully, within this formation, a massive black void hundreds of thousands of zhang in size was blasted out!
And this is still because the formation is supporting it.
Otherwise, this destructive power would surely be greater than this.
"Hehe, this young lady wants to see how many times you can hold out!"
Seeing the former mobilize the formation's heavenly and earthly energy for defense, Xiao Ling's mouth corner slightly rose.
But soon, she hurriedly withdrew her smile.
After all, if she got too pleased, it would draw the opponent's attention to something amiss.
Then when she goes back, her butt will likely get smacked swollen.
"Refine Heaven Ancient Formation, refine! Refine! Refine!"
And soon, Xiao Ling continuously controlled the two upper and lower grand formations, unleashing successive astonishingly powerful fire pillar attacks.
"Bastard."
As for the Spirit Communion Sect Ancestor, facing the former's continuous attacks, he could only be forced to keep mobilizing heavenly and earthly energy, continually preserving himself, in order to find a chance to escape.
Although she could barely sustain it, that was far from enough compared to the attack, and it only made her, already extremely fatigued, even worse.
After all, before this, she had dealt with the Soul Heaven Emperor, whom in the original story even Xiao Yan could only seal by sacrificing his own Dou Emperor body.
Therefore, having resolved a same-level powerhouse with many preparations, she can still function normally, which is still quite remarkable.
However, she did not suffer severe injuries like Xiao Yan did in the original when he destroyed the Soul Heaven Emperor.
But she is like the Soul Heaven Emperor before, having exhausted her trump cards, reaching the end of her rope.
Therefore, facing the new Dou Emperor's attack now, all she can do is barely preserve herself and look for a chance to escape. (End of chapter)
