Not long after the mbers of the Poison Sect entered the mountain range, waves of miserable wails echoed out one after another from the dense forest.
Clearly, the Poison Sect had encountered the first line of defense set up by the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate within the forest.
As the battle continued, so of the stronger mbers of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate arrived. Upon seeing their own comrades being slaughtered rcilessly by the enemy powerhouses, they imdiately joined the battlefield.
However, the mont the Dou Wang-level experts of both sides started fighting, Zi Yan, already unable to restrain herself, directly charged into a group of Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate Dou Wangs, gleefully wreaking havoc and slaughtering them without hesitation.
"This girl..."
Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Feng watched the retreating Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate mbers, who had no will to fight and were fleeing at an astonishing speed. He turned to Yun Shan and dusa beside him and said, "It seems they want to make a final stand at the mountaintop. Let's head there too."
As soon as he finished speaking, his erald-green wings flapped behind him, and he was the first to soar toward the upper parts of the mountain range.
Yun Shan and dusa nodded slightly and quickly followed.
The group flew upward in a straight line, and after a short while, they reached the area near the mountain peak.
From his elevated viewpoint, Lin Feng swept his gaze downward and discovered that the towering mountain peak looked as if it had been cleanly sliced off by a giant axe.
On that flattened surface was presumably the location of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate's headquarters.
However, at this mont, the entire mountaintop was shrouded in thick, green poisonous mist.
The rolling toxic fog completely obscured all the buildings atop the peak.
Outside the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate at this ti, the Poison Sect's forces had already surrounded the entire area, densely packed on all sides.
The Poison Sect's Sect Leader, Xiao Yixian, had also arrived at the scene.
Gazing at the billowing green poison fog ahead, she didn't waste a single word. With a wave of her tender hand, a powerful surge of gray-purple Dou Qi blasted straight toward the protective formation below.
"Heavenly Poison Woman, how dare you!"
Seeing Xiao Yixian attack the formation, the high-ranking mbers within the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate could no longer sit still.
As the furious shout rang out from atop the mountain, the poison mist churned violently, and six Dou Huang-level figures burst out from within.
Among them, the one at the front was a middle-aged man in luxurious robes, whose aura had already reached the peak of Dou Huang.
The other five, standing behind him, had unstable auras—clearly newly advanced Dou Huang elders.
As they saw the oncoming gray-purple Dou Qi, the five elders of Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate behind the middle-aged man suddenly erupted with powerful Dou Qi.
A mont later, their palms abruptly pressed onto the shoulders of the man in front, channeling their Dou Qi into his body like surging tides.
Receiving such an imnse influx of Dou Qi, even though the middle-aged man was at the peak of Dou Huang, his face flushed red from the pressure.
Enduring the sensation of his ridians about to burst, he hurriedly gathered all the energy into a single point, then fiercely slamd both palms forward.
A massive pillar of Dou Qi, containing the combined strength of six people, shot out with a roar.
Finally, it collided head-on with the incoming streak of gray-purple Dou Qi from Xiao Yixian.
BOOM!
With a thunderous explosion in midair, the Dou Qi pillar, bolstered by six people's strength, actually managed to block Xiao Yixian's attack.
"That peak Dou Huang middle-aged man must be the Sect Master of Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, Xie Shan. As for those other five elders—judging by their unstable auras—they were probably forcibly elevated to Dou Huang ranks in the past few days by the Protector Tie's secret thod."
Looking at the few figures above from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, Lin Feng murmured while rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
"Xie Shan? So Xie Bi Yan still hasn't co out—sending you bunch out to die instead. I'd like to see just how many moves you can withstand from ."
Upon hearing this, Xie Shan roared furiously, "Elder Xie is a well-established powerhouse of the Chu Yun Empire! You little brat—challenging him directly? You're simply seeking death!"
Xiao Yixian stared coldly at Xie Shan. A faint, icy glint flickered through her gray-purple eyes. Without further words, her fair hands suddenly ford a seal.
"Thousand Phantom Poison Spring!"
With a cold shout, more than a dozen streams of viscous gray light suddenly surged from within Xiao Yixian's body, then swept across the sky, blasting violently toward Xie Shan and the others like a torrential storm.
As the sticky gray beams streaked across the sky, their terrifying corrosive power actually left behind visible scars in the air, matching the number of beams — a horrifying sight.
Seeing that Xiao Yixian imdiately resorted to a killing blow without a word, Xie Shan's expression darkened dramatically.
A Dou Zong expert wasn't soone he and a few Elders could possibly contend with.
Even though their combined Dou Technique earlier had imnse power, the others were rely newly advanced Dou Huangs. Against a Dou Zong expert's onslaught, it would likely take only a few moves before their ridians were shattered and they died on the spot.
However, recalling the trump card he relied on, the group quickly cald down and cast aside their panic.
Just as the streams of sticky gray light were about to pierce through their bodies, the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate's protective grand formation suddenly churned violently.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, an elderly figure strangely materialized midair.
With a heavy stomp of the black cane in his hand, the old man released a torrent of vast Dou Qi from his body. In an instant, it transford into a radiant barrier that completely enveloped the space before Xie Shan and the others.
The gray poisonous Dou Qi unleashed by Xiao Yixian hurtled forward and violently smashed into the barrier.
Under the continuous bombardnt of the sticky gray Dou Qi, ripples surged across the light screen. Yet despite this relentless assault, the barrier stood strong and showed no signs of collapse.
Each beam of gray Dou Qi struck the screen, triggering continuous explosive roars that echoed through the surrounding mountains.
As the final stream of gray Dou Qi struck, the enormous light screen finally began to fade, revealing behind it an old, slightly hunched white-haired man.
The old man was dressed in plain robes, his aged face expressionless.
Though his eyes seed murky at first glance, a closer look revealed a chilling gleam of clarity within.
In his hand, he held a pitch-black cane topped with a grotesque scorpion head, whose forehead emitted a faint, nearly imperceptible purple glow.
Just like Xiao Yixian, the old man floated in midair with no visible support. His entire aura was completely retracted within his body, not leaking the slightest hint — he looked no different from an ordinary elderly man.
However, Lin Feng, who possessed exceptionally powerful soul perception, felt a deep, inexplicable sense of oppression the mont the old man appeared.
And once the old man arrived, the experts of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate imdiately bowed respectfully.
On the side of the Poison Sect, the expressions of many grew increasingly grim.
They had personally witnessed the battle between Xiao Yixian and Xie Bi Yan a few days prior and knew full well this old man was anything but ordinary.
Even Xiao Yixian dared not take Xie Bi Yan lightly.
"I didn't expect that old bastard Xie Bi Yan could conceal his aura so perfectly. Seems like he hasn't wasted these years at all. If my guess is correct, he's already at the peak of Four-Star Dou Zong, nearly on par with Protector Wu. Given so ti, he might very well break through to Five-Star Dou Zong."
dusa stared at her old rival and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, you brought Yun Shan with you when you ca."
"To think that while I still have to rely on the Hall of Souls's secret arts to break through the Dou Huang barrier, this old fellow has already reached such a level."
Gazing at Xie Bi Yan in the distance, Yun Shan sighed in admiration.
