Chapter 356: Defeating the Dou Zun

The scorching flames suddenly broke through the armor's defense and entered Hun Qiu's body, and then he felt a terrifying force surge into his body again.

"Bang!" A sound like a bomb explosion rang out inside Hun Qiu's body. This explosion sound seemed to trigger some mechanism, and the surface of Hun Qiu's body began to explode constantly. The original pitch-black armor was also blown to pieces.

"Puchi!" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from Hun Qiu's mouth. Hun Qiu clutched his chest, looking at Xiao Yan in disbelief. He had only taken one punch from Xiao Yan; how could his body suddenly explode uncontrollably?

Xiao Yan looked at Hun Qiu, who was full of confusion, and naturally wouldn't explain anything to him. He would only take advantage of his illness to kill him.

"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!"

Xiao Yan's palms formed seals rapidly before him, golden light surging in his palms, then divided into two, transforming into two masses of golden light attached to Xiao Yan's palms.

He saw lightning flash under Xiao Yan's feet, his body transformed into a bolt of lightning, appearing before Hun Qiu in an instant, and then he swung his palms to strike Hun Qiu.

Facing the palms Xiao Yan blasted toward him, Hun Qiu also had a solemn expression, crazily mobilizing the Dou Qi in his body to surge toward his palms, then meeting Xiao Yan's palms.

"Clack!" A muffled sound of bone shattering rang out. Hun Qiu's hands were directly shattered, his body retreated violently, and the fresh blood in his body sprayed directly from the wounds on his body.

"How is this possible!" Hun Qiu looked at Xiao Yan in astonishment. He didn't understand how Xiao Yan's strength had increased several times over.

"This is my Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms! You actually dared to take it head-on; you are truly reckless!" Xiao Yan curled his lips into a cold sneer. Did you really think my Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms could only be used at a distance? Close combat is even more terrifying.

Hun Qiu felt his numb arms, full of disbelief, and wondered where Xiao Yan had gotten so many Dou Techniques that surpassed the Earth Tier.

One must know that others felt lucky if they had one or two Earth Tier Dou Techniques, but it seemed there were none below the Earth Tier on Xiao Yan.

"Explode!" Just when Hun Qiu was doubting his life, his body suddenly exploded again. This explosion was even more violent, and Hun Qiu was blown to a bloody mess, unrecognizable.

"Puchi!" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from his mouth again. Hun Qiu finally knew why his body had exploded, because those invisible, intangible force Qi had drilled into his body at some point.

In fact, Hun Qiu guessed correctly. That force Qi was precisely the Three Origins Returning to One Qi. Unless Hun Qiu's soul perception could exceed Xiao Yan's, it was impossible to detect the existence of this force Qi. After all, Xiao Yan's soul level had reached the Spirit Realm.

Only the soul level of an Eighth-Grade Alchemist at the Dou Zun level could reach the Spirit Realm. Hun Qiu, who had only just stepped into the Dou Zun level, clearly could not have a soul level exceeding Xiao Yan's.

Xiao Yan knew from the beginning that if he didn't use some special means, it would be impossible to defeat Hun Qiu, this Dou Zun. Therefore, he could only constantly strike the Three Origins Returning to One Qi into his body during the battle, detonating it all at once at the critical moment, causing Hun Qiu to be seriously injured.

"You are indeed very strong! And your methods are also very clever, but..." Hun Qiu spat out another mouthful of fresh blood, stood up tremblingly, and looked at Xiao Yan, saying.

Just when Xiao Yan thought this guy had some other major move, who knew that Hun Qiu's hands suddenly tore before him, and a space black hole appeared before him. The moment the black hole appeared, Hun Qiu drilled directly into it, then disappeared, and the space black hole also disappeared.

"Damn! He actually ran away!" Xiao Yan widened his eyes, full of disbelief.

"He has already been beaten to a pulp by you; do you expect him to wait for death?" Yao Lao said playfully.

"Then what should we do now?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan felt a bit awkward, then began to worry again. Although he could also tear space, he still couldn't do things like establishing a space passage.

"Hehe, he was seriously injured and couldn't run far. I guess he must be hiding in some space nearby, right?" Yao Lao transformed into a mass of white light and floated out from the storage ring, then pointed at the sky, and the space twisted for a while, then opened a large hole.

"You actually discovered me! But it's already too late!" Hun Qiu clutched his chest, looked at Xiao Yan and Yao Lao, curled his lips into a cold sneer, and said in a sinister tone.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan and Yao Lao looked at each other, somewhat confused.

Suddenly, the sky twisted, and a pitch-black hole appeared in the sky.

"Hun Qiu, you are living in reverse; you can't even take down a small Dou Huang!" A terrifying and sinister mocking sound suddenly came from the pitch-black hole, and then a man wrapped in black Qi appeared beside Hun Qiu.

"Hundan, he can kill a Dou Zong in seconds at will, and can beat me to this state; is he an ordinary Dou Huang? I fear that even if you make a move yourself, you might not be able to handle it!" Hun Qiu mocked directly.

"Oh?" Hearing this, the person named Hundan smiled slightly, then shifted his gaze to Xiao Yan and Yao Lao, and said with a faint smile, "It seems my luck is not bad! A powerful soul, and a young man with extraordinary talent."

"Hundan (Bastard)? This name is truly well-chosen!" Xiao Yan looked at Hundan and couldn't help but laugh. He hadn't felt it before, but now that he thought about it, it was truly a bit funny.

"A Hun Qiu (Bastard), a Hundan (Bastard), neither is a good thing!" Yao Lao stroked his white beard and said with a smile.

Seeing the two mocking them in unison, Hundan was furious. Back then, their names had been mocked by countless people in the Hall of Souls.

"You are courting death!" Hundan let out a loud shout, struck with a palm fiercely, Dou Qi surging crazily, condensing a massive black palm before him, and slapped it toward Xiao Yan and Yao Lao.

"Good fellow! This is not just a little powerful!" Xiao Yan looked at the space cracks appearing around the black palm, and his expression began to turn solemn.

Facing this Hundan, whose strength was much stronger than Hun Qiu's, Xiao Yan didn't dare to be the least bit negligent. His palms closed before his chest, and then a golden light flashed, and a transparent sphere appeared in the palm of Xiao Yan's hand.

"Three Origins Returning to One Qi!"

Xiao Yan's palms pushed fiercely, and the transparent sphere in his palm shot out instantly, heading toward the massive black palm.

"Boom!" The transparent sphere collided with the massive black palm and exploded instantly, emitting an ear-piercing sound. The powerful energy dispersed instantly, spreading toward the surroundings, completely twisting the surrounding space.

"Not bad! Not bad! I was wondering why several Hall of Souls protectors and the Hall of Souls Vice Hall Master all lost in your hands. You do have some ability, but everything ends here." Hundan suddenly reached out his right hand, his palm curled slightly, and grabbed fiercely toward the void where Xiao Yan was. The space twisted instantly.
