Chapter 272: War Begins

However, Xiao Yan did not want to let Yao Lao take action, because Xiao Yan felt that if he let Yao Lao take action, it would only cause more trouble and attract people from the Hall of Souls.

Even if he let Yao Lao take action, it would just be one more battlefield. Yao Lao was currently in a soul state, and the people from the Hall of Souls had specific means to restrain soul bodies. At most, it would be a stalemate.

As for the Nine-Colored Swallowing Python, he did not know if it was fighting for control, but ever since Xiao Yan returned to the Imperial Capital, it had not woken up and had been in a deep sleep.

Just as Xiao Yan was thinking about how to break the deadlock, Jia Xingtian and Yun Shan had already started fighting.

Jia Xingtian used the blood mist to condense a blood-colored saber nearly a hundred zhang long. The blood-colored saber seemed to tear through space, drawing a blood-colored trajectory in mid-air, and slashed directly at Yun Shan and his group.

Seeing this, Yun Shan did not panic in the slightest. He gathered the cloud sea and condensed a huge shield, blocking it in front of the group.

Nalan Jie, Mu Chen, and other powerhouses thought for a moment, then bowed to Xiao Yan and went down to help preside over the array.

What a joke. Without life-threatening danger, just consuming a bit of Dou Qi to gain the favor of a seventh-grade alchemist and the goodwill of the Yunlan Sect—how could such a deal not be worth it?

Even if they lost in the end and Jia Xingtian destroyed the Yunlan Sect, could he really keep Xiao Yan?

"Thank you!" Yun Yun said gratefully, seeing that Xiao Yan could get these arrogant powerhouses to help with just one word.

Yun Shan's expression instantly became grave. If the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast joined the battle, his array would soon be broken. Once the array was broken, everyone would become fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of others.

Hearing this, Yun Yun instantly blushed, glared fiercely at Xiao Yan, and cursed him for being improper. What time was it, and he was still making such jokes.

"Boom!" The blood-colored saber collided with the shield, emitting a thunderous sound. Immediately following, huge ripples caused the space to distort, and then spread in all directions.

No wonder Jia Xingtian was so confident. After all, with two Dou Zong and the help of the array, it was equivalent to three Dou Zong. Destroying the Yunlan Sect would not take much effort.

Seeing the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast take action, Jia Xingtian naturally did not want to be outdone. He once again used the blood-colored mist to condense a blood-colored light blade and slashed towards Yun Shan and his group.

The Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast looked at the four ants rushing towards it, a trace of disdain flashing in its huge pupils. It did not care in the slightest and slammed its huge tail towards the defensive shield of the Yunlan Sect.

"This is too powerful!" Everyone was stunned by this terrifying destructive power.

After Xiao Yan and Yun Yun finished joking, he turned his head to look at the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast, which was about to attack the array again. His eyes narrowed, and he stepped fiercely into the void, his figure as fast as lightning, rushing towards the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast.

"Awoo!" The Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast felt pain, but having been tempered in wars for years, it would not stop attacking just because it was injured. Its huge tail still swept fiercely towards the four of them.

Only Xiao Yan's attack had the most formidable destructive power, directly blasting a blood hole half a meter deep in the tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast.

Seeing Xiao Yan take action, Yun Yun, Fama, and Hai Bodong naturally did not want to be outdone. They all flapped the wings on their backs and rushed towards the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast.

"I can't help much by going up, so I'll contribute to this array!" Miteer Tengshan said with a grin and went down to preside over the array.

The three people behind Xiao Yan also launched their strongest attacks not far from the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast. Four powerful attacks struck the tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast.

"Flame Sky-High!"

"Bang!" Just as the defense of the Cloud Smoke Covering Sun Array was slightly weak, the huge tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast slammed fiercely onto the defensive shield. The white defensive shield shook even more violently, and at the same time, the weaker disciples of the Yunlan Sect vomited blood one after another and fainted.

"Three Parts Returning to Origin Qi!"

"Xiao Yan, what should we do now?" Seeing that the array was about to be broken and the Yunlan Sect was about to be destroyed, Yun Yun asked Xiao Yan subconsciously.

However, after being teased by Xiao Yan, Yun Yun's worried heart was put at ease.

"Boom!" The blood-colored light blade came into contact with the shield, and the thunderous sound rang out again. Huge energy ripples caused the defensive shields of both arrays to tremble a few more times.

"Hehe! Do we still need to say these things between us? As long as..." Xiao Yan whispered in Yun Yun's ear.

"So powerful!" Xiao Yan wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast in front of him. Although he had fought Medusa at the Dou Zong level before, Medusa had not used her true form. Magical beasts had stronger combat power when using their true forms in battle.

"Ha! Ha! What is difficult about this!" The Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast laughed loudly, its huge tail drawing an arc in the air and slamming fiercely towards the defensive shield of the Yunlan Sect.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Explosions occurred continuously on the tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast, but the attacks of Hai Bodong and Fama only slowed the tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast down a bit, and Yun Yun's Wind Extreme: Meteor Kill only left a blood hole on its body.

The Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast and Jia Xingtian had often fought together in the past, and they had long been perfectly coordinated. It was estimated that after a few more hits, the Cloud Smoke Covering Sun Array would be broken.

Seeing that the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast had no intention of stopping, Xiao Yan crossed his palms and then pushed them out fiercely.

"Old friend, please help me break the array together!" Seeing that one strike had no effect, Jia Xingtian knew that it would be difficult to break the Yunlan Sect's mountain-protecting array with just the array in a short time. In order to break the array as soon as possible, he had to say to the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast.

"What else can we do? Fight! Yun Er, Elder Fa, and Elder Hai, the four of us will go and meet this magical beast. As for the others, those who want to help can go and help maintain the array! Of course, you can also watch from the sidelines if you don't want to help!" Xiao Yan looked around at everyone and said with a faint smile.

However, Yun Shan could not afford to think too much at this moment. Seeing the huge blood-colored light blade about to slash at everyone, Yun Shan had to condense a shield again to protect everyone.

"Bang..." Four muffled sounds rang out, and the four of them were vomited blood by the tail of the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast, their figures involuntarily retreating backwards.

Upon contacting the light shield condensed by the array, it caused the defensive shields of both sides to tremble a few times. The ground, which had no defense, was instantly torn apart, and all the trees and stones were shattered. It was conceivable that without the light shield for defense, this single strike alone would have destroyed the Yunlan Sect and the Imperial Capital.

"Mysterious Ice Dragon Soar!"

"Hehe, we have long wanted to take action!" Fama and Hai Bodong did not care about the powerful magical beast in front of them at all, because with Xiao Yan there, they were full of confidence.

"Wind Extreme: Meteor Kill!"

"Are you all okay?" Xiao Yan asked, looking at Yun Yun and the other two.

"Still alive!" The three of them wiped the blood from their mouths. Apparently, the Ghost Sea Flood Dragon Beast's previous strike had injured all three of them.
