"The situation seems a bit off, Yuluo, if anything happens, take Ningxiang and leave first!"
With a cold glance at the Wuyan Palace mbers bearing mocking expressions, Xue Tianao felt his heart skip a beat, then he turned his head with a solemn expression and said.
"Hmph, with these insignificant pests, how could they possibly obliterate my Xuanyin Hall?"
Upon hearing Xue Tianao’s words, Lian Yuluo was the first to disagree, shouting sharply and locking her aura directly on Fu Lingxue, the Great Elder of Wuyan Palace.
This was considered an old rival of Lian Yuluo’s, and now that both had reached the Peak of the Floating Life Realm in cultivation, perhaps they were the best opponents for each other.
As for Wu Zhukong, the strongest of the opponents, it was best left to the Hall Master to handle. Lian Yuluo had reason to believe that Xue Tianao, who had reached the Peak of the Lingyun Realm, could not possibly be weaker than Wu Zhukong in the slightest.
"Overestimating yourself!"
With her aura locked by Lian Yuluo, Fu Lingxue’s face turned slightly sullen. Having had the left side of her face burnt by Yun Xiao’s Ancestor Vein Fire on Impermanence Island, her beauty was gone, inducing a peculiar hatred towards these beautiful won.
However, Fu Lingxue considered herself quite lucky. Although her appearance was destroyed, she benefited from the disaster, breaking through to the Peak of the Floating Life Realm, so she had no fear whatsoever of Lian Yuluo.
Whew...
After letting out a light hum, Fu Lingxue swiftly darted forward ahead, a fla coalescing into a fire sword that rushed fiercely at Lian Yuluo.
"Bring it on!"
Sensing the fierce power within the fire sword, Lian Yuluo let out a deep shout. Her hands swiftly perford a seal, and in front of her, an extrely sharp, crystalline ice spur took form.
Bam!
The blazing fire sword and the ice-cold aura-emitting ice spur clashed violently, producing a loud sound that caused several Earth Rank cultivators to show slight changes in expression.
Under the collision of two utterly contrasting forces, neither Fu Lingxue’s fire sword nor Lian Yuluo’s ice spur gained any ground. This initial clash was obviously evenly matched.
For the mont, the two deputy powerhouses from Wuyan Palace and Xuanyin Hall were entirely locked in combat. However, both were at the Peak of the Floating Life Realm, so neither would be able to easily defeat the other in a short ti.
"Wu Zhukong, let see how much your strength has improved over the past few months."
Noting the intense battle instantly unfolding on that side, Xue Tianao knew that today’s great clash was unavoidable. Imdiately, he locked his aura on Wu Zhukong and spoke with a tone filled with ridicule.
In Xue Tianao’s view, even if Wu Zhukong had also reached the Peak of the Lingyun Realm, he wasn’t necessarily able to defeat him. Ultimately, the great trend was controlled by Xuanyin Hall.
Firstly, being the headquarters of Xuanyin Hall, it had a much larger number than Wuyan Palace; secondly, Xuanyin Hall now had Xue Ningxiang, a Heaven Rank warrior, whereas Wuyan Palace only had a Floating Life Realm middle stage Great Elder left.
The Great Elder of Xuanyin Hall was also an expert who reached the Floating Life Realm middle stage. After the two had engaged, Wuyan Palace would no longer have anyone capable of stopping Xue Ningxiang.
The gap between the Heavenly Third Realm and the Earth Third Realm couldn’t be narrowed by sheer numbers. Moreover, even by numbers, Xuanyin Hall outnumbered Wuyan Palace significantly.
Therefore, from any perspective, Xuanyin Hall held a dominant advantage. Yet, at this mont, although Xue Tianao could analyze the result, he could not dispel an unease that lingered in his heart no matter what.
"Heh heh, I’m actually curious about how much your strength has improved as well."
With Xue Tianao locking his aura, Wu Zhukong remained calm and collected, and the next mont, the Master of Xuanyin Hall took action.
Swish!
Almost instantly, Xue Tianao appeared right in front of Wu Zhukong. To avoid prolonged dreams, Xue Tianao didn’t hold back at all, striking with extre deadly intent.
A trace of cold aura swirled between Xue Tianao’s fingers, seemingly icing the surrounding air. Nurous ice-cold energies were stripped from the air and concentrated on his right hand’s index and middle fingers.
"It’s the Xuanyin Hall’s Sect Guarding Pulse Skill, ’Tianxuan Finger,’ this old guy truly intends to fight to the death!"
Having battled Xuanyin Hall for years, even though their encounters were rare, Wu Zhukong was deeply familiar with Xue Tianao’s skills.
And this skill, known as the Xuanyin Hall’s Sect Treasure, the Tianxuan Finger, had already reached the Heavenly Rank Interdiate level. Even during the great battle on Impermanence Island, Xue Tianao hadn’t unleashed it.
Because every ti the Tianxuan Finger is utilized, the consumption of ridian Qi is at an extrely terrifying level. If not in a desperate situation, Xue Tian’ao would never easily employ it.
Even though Xue Tian’ao has now reached the pinnacle of the Lingyun Realm, this Tianxuan Finger can at most be used three tis. After three tis, all his ridian Qi would be exhausted, leaving him vulnerable.
Since the Tianxuan Finger consus such a significant amount of ridian Qi power, its might is naturally extraordinary. An interdiate Heaven Rank ridian technique is already considered one of the top techniques on the Tenglong Continent.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Countless energies gathered upon the index and middle fingers of Xue Tian’ao’s right hand, yet they did not freeze due to the yin-cold qi, instead remaining in a special state of semi-consolidation.
Perhaps this is the special manifestation of this powerful ridian Technique, the Tianxuan Finger. In any case, once this move was executed, even Wu Zhukong, who was previously confident, turned much more serious.
Wu Zhukong likely didn’t expect the Master Xuanyin to go all out right away; he simply wanted to test his breakthrough to the pinnacle of the Lingyun Realm. But now, it seems he has no choice but to go all out too.
Since Xue Tian’ao had brought out his most formidable technique, Wu Zhukong couldn’t hold back. Otherwise, even if he could destroy the Xuanyin Hall, his strength would suffer a significant decline.
Wu Zhukong was well-aware of so of the Tianxuan Finger’s effects, and he knew he couldn’t let it hit him. In the next mont, he unleashed a surge of fiery attribute energy.
"Fla Absolute Annihilation God!"
A low voice ca from Wu Zhukong. If Yun Xiao heard this term, he might laugh his teeth out. How could the word ’god’ be so lightly used by these Heaven Rank Third Realm cultivators?
In the heart of the Long Xiao Battle God of his past life, the peak of the Holy Rank Third Realm was the limit of cultivation on the continent, until he was reborn and t the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu.
Now Yun Xiao clearly knows that above the Holy Rank Third Realm, there are two more great realms, called the Immortal Realm and the God Realm, where the giants of the Li Yuan Realm are all divine rank experts.
It’s a pity for soone like Wu Zhukong, who, even as one of the top figures of the Tenglong Continent, could not know certain secrets. That’s why he could boastfully speak of "Annihilate God."
Even though Wu Zhukong doesn’t know those divine rank experts, the Fla Absolute Annihilation God technique he was using at this mont was surely not much less powerful than Xue Tian’ao’s Tianxuan Finger.
A fierce fla swirled around Wu Zhukong’s right hand, and after a mont, the flas disappeared completely, and his right hand turned entirely red.
It was as though the flas that had previously surrounded his hand had all entered his right hand, making it appear like a piece of burning charcoal.
Chh! Chh! Chh!
In the blink of an eye, after the Fla Absolute Annihilation God hand technique was ford, Wu Zhukong’s right hand’s index and middle fingers precisely pointed at the center of his palm.
Wisps of white smoke rose up, and the two pinnacle Lingyun Realm experts in the sky seed to have co to a standstill, from extre movent to extre stillness, in just the span of a breath.
The Tianxuan Finger used by Xue Tian’ao contained extrely strong yin-cold attributes. When this extre cold attribute touched Wu Zhukong’s intense fire palm, the effect was astonishing.
The current situation depends on whether the ice-cold attribute of Xue Tian’ao’s Tianxuan Finger is stronger, or if the fla power in Wu Zhukong’s fire palm takes effect first.
If the ice-cold power has the upper hand, then Xue Tian’ao will win; otherwise, Wu Zhukong will be stronger. This battle, with just the initial move, has already reached a life-or-death situation.
Both the Tianxuan Finger and Fla Absolute Annihilation God are interdiate Heaven Rank ridian techniques and serve as sect treasures, representing the strongest cards of Xue Tian’ao and Wu Zhukong.
Once one party can no longer withstand it, the opposing force will enter their body, and the mixture with their power backlash will make the battle’s outco evident.
Practically everyone’s gaze fixed upon the stalemate between the two great power holders in the sky, selectively ignoring the fierce combat between Fu Lingxue and Lian Yuluo.
They all knew that this top-tier battle was the key to today’s situation. If either side was defeated, the other side’s fate would beco extrely bleak.
Ti seed to have passed in just the blink of an eye, or as if a long ten thousand years had passed, and, in short, under everyone’s watchful eyes, this battle between two top experts had reached a straightforward outco.
Thunk!
A light sound was heard, and unexpectedly, at so point, Xue Tian’ao extended his other hand, then gathered his fingers like a sword and pointed at Wu Zhukong’s right forearm.
At this mont, Wu Zhukong was using the Fla Absolute Annihilation God’s fire palm to contend with Xue Tian’ao’s Tianxuan Finger, having never thought that the Hall Master of Xuanyin could achieve such an unexpected move.
The sudden change left Wu Zhukong with no ti to switch tactics. With Xue Tian’ao’s strike, blood suddenly spurted out, staining the sky with a hint of bloodiness.
