315. The Final Blow
"Does he still have the strength left?" Venerable Huangquan was now as frightened as a bird startled by a bow.
Thousands of points of light shone brightly behind Xiao Yan, accompanied by shouts like a thousand troops and the clanging of metal.
Xiao Yan's powerful attack attracted everyone's attention. Before the illusory figure, Xiao Yan now resembled a king. He poured all his Dou Qi into this attack; his Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body was on the verge of collapse. This was the last attack he could unleash. Whether he could kill the Yellow Spring Venerable depended on this one strike!
Huang Quan Venerable sensed the threat from behind. Xiao Yan had used this move against him last time in the Wind and Thunder Mountains. However, back then Xiao Yan was only an eight-star Dou Zong, while Huang Quan Venerable was in peak condition. Now, it seemed the outcome of this attack wouldn't be as simple as just suffering a loss.
While Venerable Huangquan was still pondering a countermeasure, an invisible soul impact sent him flying once more. However, Xiao Yan, the user, was also momentarily dizzy. Although he had the Soul Transfer Technique's enhancement, his soul power was still severely depleted. Even at their weakest, Venerable Lei and Venerable Huangquan were still genuine Dou Zun; their soul power, while not particularly strong, was solid and condensed. Xiao Yan had repeatedly used his soul power to inflict heavy losses on them, demonstrating the immense difficulty involved.
However, the phantom behind Xiao Yan eventually took shape, and the many elite armored warriors holding rulers pointed directly at Venerable Huangquan.
Earthly Rank, Highest Level; Heavenly Desolation Ruler; Sovereign.
Three styles combined, the emperor himself arrives!
The dazzling figure, like a sky full of stars, rushed towards the Yellow Spring Venerable with a purplish-red streak of light. This attack had finally been launched. The countless purple streaks of light, viewed from afar, resembled a swarm of shooting stars moving against the current—a truly beautiful sight. But behind this beauty lay a hidden deadly intent!
Venerable Huangquan also stopped. It seemed that continuing to run was no longer effective; he had to withstand this attack to have a chance to escape.
The Yellow Spring Venerable's body turned ashen again, and his dark battle aura rapidly condensed. Last time, when he faced Xiao Yan, he used this move to dodge most of the energy in Xiao Yan's attack. This was still his best defensive measure, and he believed that Xiao Yan would not be able to completely penetrate his defense this time either.
Then, all he could see in his pupils were countless shadowy figures, many of which pierced through his body. Although his face grew increasingly pale, he was indeed temporarily out of danger. The Yellow Spring Venerable's eyes revealed barely suppressed excitement; as long as he lived, everything else was secondary! The Thunder Venerable was stronger than him, yet he was still dead at Xiao Yan's hands. He himself was weaker, but at least he could escape with his life!
Venerable Huangquan looked at Xiao Yan with great excitement: Kid, in the end, I'm the one who has the last laugh!
Xiao Yan looked at Venerable Huang Quan with a sense of helplessness. His Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body had shattered completely, his Dou Qi was completely depleted, and his soul power was also greatly depleted. He was utterly exhausted. At the same time, the enhancement from the secret technique was coming to an end. Exhaustion washed over Xiao Yan like a tidal wave, making him want nothing more than to lie down and sleep soundly.
"Still not enough?" Xiao Yan was slightly helpless. He had done his best to kill Lei Zunzhe, but he really had no strength left. Although Huang Quan Zunzhe had been suppressed by Xiao Yan, he had managed to withstand the most crucial Three-Colored Fire Lotus using his Heart Blood Clay Puppet, so his condition was much better than Lei Zunzhe's.
Just as Xiao Yan's offensive was nearing its end, a strange grayish-purple color suddenly flashed across Huang Quan Venerable's eyes, and Huang Quan Venerable found that he could not exert any strength at all, and a tingling sensation spread throughout his body.
"What's going on?" Venerable Huangquan screamed. He was about to leave this hellish place when his body underwent such a bizarre change.
His proud phantom image immediately dissipated, and the remaining shadow of the ruler completely pierced through his body! Then, the color of his entire body gradually changed to grayish-purple, turning into specks of dust, and thus dissipated into space.
The soul of Venerable Huangquan emerged from his body, still somewhat bewildered, until he saw the purplish-gray aura shimmering in Little Fairy Doctor's jade hand in the distance. Only then did he realize: what had affected him at the last moment was poison! And not just any poison, but the Calamity Poison Body, which terrified everyone on the continent!
"Witch!" Venerable Huangquan gritted his teeth and roared angrily. He didn't even know when he was poisoned. He didn't expect that he would be able to leave safely so soon, but he was still tricked by Little Fairy Doctor!
Huang Quan Venerable wanted to fight back, but Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor were definitely not in good condition at the moment. Although he was only in his soul form now, he might still be able to defeat the two of them!
But once again, he met Xiao Yan's chilling gaze, and felt a chill run down his spine. He even saw Xiao Yan conjure a large, purplish-red ruler! Huang Quan knew that Xiao Yan, who was usually calm and collected, was completely fearless and willing to risk his life for others when it mattered most!
Unable to withstand the provocation any longer, Venerable Huangquan unleashed a sonic wave, and the lower-ranking disciples of Huangquan Pavilion immediately began to retreat. The once-powerful Huangquan Pavilion had now departed in such a disheveled state. Following Huangquan Pavilion's departure, the two pavilion masters of Fenglei Pavilion also urged their subordinates to evacuate immediately. They were in an even more dire situation than Huangquan Pavilion, as Venerable Lei had already died at Xiao Yan's hands. It seemed that Fenglei Pavilion's most difficult moment in many years was about to arrive!
After witnessing the departure of Venerable Huangquan, Xiao Yan's last breath finally broke, and exhaustion and pain overwhelmed his entire body. Just as Xiao Yan was about to collapse from exhaustion, a faint, elegant fragrance wafted from beside him. He realized that someone was gently supporting him. Turning his head to see who it was, he twisted the wound on his neck, causing him to gasp in pain.
He didn't feel anything during the battle, but as the battle progressed, the injuries that the Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body could transfer became increasingly limited. The violent battle qi enhanced by the secret technique also continuously ravaged Xiao Yan's body. It can be said that he is now covered in injuries.
Seeing Xiao Yan's unusually disheveled appearance, Little Fairy Doctor beside him chuckled and said, "Don't move around recklessly, I told you not to be so impulsive!"
Despite the scolding, Little Fairy Doctor's hand still gently stroked Xiao Yan's neck, a cool sensation slowly flowing into it, easing his pain considerably. Xiao Yan also let out a breath and said, "Much better..."
Seeing Xiao Yan's condition, Little Fairy Doctor didn't stop what she was doing, using the gentlest methods possible to alleviate his pain. Although Little Fairy Doctor didn't have the skills of an alchemist, her medical skills were still quite excellent.
