Chapter 778: Xiao Yan Alone Battles Two Fighting Venerables

After all, a spatial prison has already been set up outside this branch hall.

He simply didn't believe that, relying on Yao Chen's little soul power, he could still break out of the prison and escape.

Therefore, his gaze instantly focused on Xiao Yan below.

After all, this guy is worth far more than that old Yao Chen.

Thinking of this, Zhaixing Lao Gui's pale hand stretched out from his sleeve.

And as he moved, a vast black mist surged out from his sleeve, instantly condensing before him into a huge black mist palm print ten zhang in size.

Immediately after, he fiercely slapped Xiao Yan with a palm!

"Woo—"

Hearing the terrifying howl of the violent wind approaching, Xiao Yan's expression drastically changed, and he hastily altered his hand seals.

"Heavenly Fire Three Mysterious Changes, first change!"

"Second change!"

"Third change!"

Accompanied by the shout in his heart, his aura suddenly surged violently at this moment.

In just a moment, he rose from a one-star Fighting Venerable to a realm nearly equal to that of Mu Gu Lao Ren.

At the same time, he lightly flicked his sleeve, and brown flames burst from his palm, forming a fire dragon in the air that roared as it fiercely collided with the black mist palm print.

"Boom—"

In an instant, earth-shaking explosive sounds rang out continuously within this hall.

The terrifying shockwave of the fighting qi actually shattered the nearby black chains outright!

In this process, some light clusters strung on the iron chains were also reduced to ashes by the powerful fighting qi shockwave, completely vanishing from this world.

Of course, some souls farther away were not killed by the shock, but had their enclosing light clusters shattered by the aftershock, and then their souls were flung out.

"Run!"

Those souls that had been flung out, after a moment of shock, happily sprinted full speed toward the outside of the hall.

After all, who would want to stay here, being drained of their source every day to die, when they could roam freely outside?

Of course, they didn't know that methods had already been laid outside the great hall.

Even if they could escape from these iron chains, they still couldn't run out of this valley.

As for the three fighting inside the hall, none had the mind to attend to those fleeing souls.

At this moment, they were all warily watching the opposite side, guarding against any mishap.

On Xiao Yan's side, after withstanding Zhaixing Lao Gui's fighting technique, his footsteps uncontrollably retreated several steps.

Forcibly suppressing the surging qi and blood in his body, the former's eyes flashed with a hint of solemnity.

"The strength of this Zhaixing Lao Gui is terrifying; I fear he is not only the so-called Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall, but his strength has even reached the five-star Dou Zun Jian Feng!"

However, although the opponent's strength is extremely strong, Xiao Yan is not such a timid person.

Thinking that if he didn't drive back these two old things, he wouldn't be able to free himself, his eyes also flashed with murderous intent.

Today, he must bring his teacher out of this damned place!

Whoever blocks him, he will kill!

As for that Zhaixing Lao Gui, seeing Xiao Yan so easily block his attack, his face also slightly changed.

"This kid's strange fire is terrifying; relying solely on forcibly raising his strength to three-star Fighting Venerable, he actually managed to easily block my attack."

Seeing the power of the brown flame, Zhaixing Lao Gui's heart also gave a slight start, and then his gaze turned to Mu Gu Lao Ren beside him.

It seemed as if he were saying, 'Your strange fire is this strong; why didn't you inform me beforehand?'

And Mu Gu Lao Ren, feeling the former's gaze, also flashed a hint of helplessness on his face.

From the color and power of Xiao Yan's strange fire, one could also guess that this kid had subdued other strange fires during this period.

But who could have thought that this kid could find so many strange fires?

In just a few months of not seeing each other, he has gained another strange fire.

Moreover, judging from the power of that strange fire of Xiao Yan, the newly subdued strange fire surely ranks not low.

"This trash, aside from alchemy, is good for nothing."

Seeing Mu Gu Lao Ren's expression, Zhaixing Lao Gui knew that this guy definitely also knew nothing about it.

After cursing silently in his heart, he turned his gaze back to Xiao Yan and lightly laughed: "Xiao Yan, as long as you hand over the Xiao family's key to this old man, we will let you leave—how about that?"

"Hehe, dreaming!"

Facing Zhaixing Lao Gui's words, Xiao Yan gave a cold sneer, his expression disdainful.

"Good, very good, this old man really wants to see how long you can hold out."

The former's action instantly made Zhaixing Lao Gui's anger flare from his heart, and then he turned his head to Mu Gu Lao Ren and said: "Let's go together, quickly finish off this kid!"

"Good."

Hearing Zhaixing Lao Gui's words, Mu Gu Lao Ren also did not hesitate, directly agreed, and then immediately mobilized his fighting qi.

As the fighting qi surged within his body, a strange, scorching energy suddenly burst forth from Mu Gu Lao Ren's body.

Then these energies, at his arm, condensed into a dark-colored strange crystalline layer, forming a black crystal arm.

Immediately after he raised his hand, a dark energy arm pierced out from the void before Xiao Yan and then rushed straight at him!

Since this fighting technique, Mu Gu Lao Ren had already used it before in the Pill Realm, so Xiao Yan was not too panicked.

At the instant the energy arm appeared from the void, he immediately activated his body technique, moving to the side, barely brushing past that huge energy arm.

And while Mu Gu Lao Ren attacked, Zhaixing Lao Gui beside him was not idle either.

Only saw him spread his palm, five fingers pointing at Xiao Yan, then his fingers trembled.

In an instant, five strands of sticky black mist surged out from his fingertips.

Then, amidst a clattering sound of flowing water, it condensed into a strange black chain as thick as a person's waist.

Afterwards, the chain coiled in midair with a hiss, directly piercing the void, and in the blink of an eye it appeared above Xiao Yan's head.

This lightning-fast attack also caused Xiao Yan, who had just dodged Mogu Lao Ren's fighting technique, to change his expression.

Immediately, he hurriedly activated his movement technique again, his calves swiftly enveloped in Dou Qi, and he dodged to the side with lightning speed.

"Hiss!"

Just as Xiao Yan left his original spot, a sharp chain viciously stabbed down from midair, then swept past right in front of him.

The chilling cold light at the front of the chain actually sliced a smooth slit in his clothing.

The next second, it viciously plunged into the hard black stone slab below.

And that sharp chain, without any obstruction, shot straight into the broken floor, sinking over a hundred meters into the ground!

"Not bad for an eighth-rank alchemist; your reaction speed is impressive."

Seeing Xiao Yan barely dodge the attack of that black chain, Zhaixing Lao Gui smiled faintly.

Afterwards, he flicked his finger, and the chain shot up from the ground like lightning, like a poisonous snake, bringing a fierce gust of wind as it swept toward Xiao Yan's head.

Faced with such an attack, Xiao Yan dared not be careless; seeing him clench his hand, the Profound Heavy Ruler flashed into existence.

As the ruler moved, it condensed into a dense net of ruler shadows around his body for defense.

Moreover, the chain's attack was extremely terrifying; under the Zhaixing Lao Gui's waving, countless afterimages continuously appeared in the sky, making it impossible to defend against.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Accompanied by the constant dancing and clashing of the ruler shadows and iron chains in the air, for a time, sharp metallic collision sounds rang out continuously within the hall.

Moreover, the densely packed strikes of the chain against the heavy ruler repeatedly unleashed terrifying force, continually knocking Xiao Yan backward.
