"There are indeed many things I don't understand." Xiao Yan shrugged his shoulders: "For example, I don't understand where you have the confidence to be so arrogant. I'll ask out of hand, you're so arrogant that you probably don't even remember what your surname is right?"
Xiao Yan examined Marquis Jinghuan up and down with a very rude gaze. "Don't tell me it's as the rumors say, that you're the illegitimate child of Emperor Zhou Liang Pan? Even if you are, Liang Pan will not protect you after causing such a huge disaster for the Great Zhou Dynasty. "
Marquis Jinghuan was successful at a young age and the rewards he received were too great. He was even given bright yellow clothing to wear, making him almost like a member of the royal family. There were many criticisms within the Great Zhou Dynasty. There were even rumors that he was the illegitimate child of Emperor Zhou Liang Pan.
Liang Pan himself did not comment on this and Marquis Jinghuan did not respond.
Xiao Yan looked at him. "Even the Great Zhou Crown Prince, Liang Yuan, provoked the Phoenix race for no reason. This is a great crime. A light punishment would be the removal of the Crown Prince position. A heavy punishment would be even more severe."
The two late stage Yuanying cultivators and the other Yuanying cultivators next to Marquis Jinghuan felt uncomfortable under Xiao Yan's gaze. They stared at him with unfriendly expressions. A thick murderous aura spread out, making people tremble in fear.
Marquis Jinghuan did not get angry and said calmly, "That's why I said that there are many things you don't understand."
"Xiao Yan, the eldest disciple of the Master of the Xuan Gate. He comes from the Xiao family of the Wuzhou City of the Qin Dynasty. He should be nineteen, but he should have cultivated in a heavenly grotto-heaven with accelerated time. That's why he's already over twenty."
"A year ago, on the Celeritas Sword Sect's Cloud Traversing Peak, he fought against the Qin Dynasty's Crown Prince Shi Chongyun with early stage Golden Elixir cultivation. He had the Solar Truefire and the Nether Evil Blaze Truefire. He once used the ability to combine the two flames and destroyed one of Shi Chongyun's Yuanying magic treasures. He fought to a draw with Shi Chongyun."
Marquis Jing Huan's tone was flat, but he was very familiar with Xiao Yan's life. "After this battle, you will advance to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir realm and then vanish. The battle on Cloud Traversing Peak will be the last time you fight for nearly a year."
"Now that your cultivation has reached the late-stage of the Golden Elixir, your rate of improvement is indeed very fast. Compared to your previous achievements, your current strength can at least defeat a mid-stage Yuanying cultivator, and you can even fight against a late-stage Yuanying cultivator."
When Marquis Jinghuan said this, his eyes flickered. "It is often said that the Master of the Mystic Gate has monstrous geniuses under him. Looking at you now, this is indeed true."
"The master of the Celestial Sect of Wonders is a true hero." Marquis Jing Huan's expression remained calm. "But if you think that you alone can interfere with my affairs, then you are gravely mistaken."
"I can use the Ancient Emperor's Saber to contend with this Scarlet Phoenix for a very long time, but how long can you last against my God Slaying Puppet?"
Although he said that, looking at his relaxed attitude, whether it was Xiao Yan, Fei Ye, or Mo Yu, they could all see that other than the Indestructible Emperor Flag, the Ancient Emperor's Saber, and the God Slaying Puppet, he definitely had other trump cards.
This was extremely frightening. Three Primordial Spirit-grade treasures were actually not this person's full strength.
"Or we can swap," Marquis Jing Huan said with fervor and assurance. "I also want to try Xuanmen Tianzong's Dao, Skills, and Divine Abilities and see what's so special about them."
Xiao Yan was unafraid. He chuckled. "Alright, then let's give it a try."
He put his hands together, and golden flames immediately gushed out. It was like a small sun slowly rising from the Eternal Imperial Flag's grotto-heaven.
"Only using the Sun's True Fire? It's useless. I don't have the Ancient Emperor's Saber. Just like you, I am a late-stage Golden Elixir cultivator. You are no match for me with just one type of True Fire, let alone a late-stage Yuanying cultivator like me with the Ancient Emperor's Saber. "
As Marquis Jing Huan spoke, his figure suddenly flashed. With the God Slaying Puppet temporarily blocking Fei Ye, he suddenly rushed in front of Xiao Yan.
A martial cultivator's physical Qi and blood burst forth. Combined with the power of spatial travel, they could sprint faster than lightning at close range.
"Taihuang Dharmic Scroll, Overlord's Token!"
Marquis Jing Huan did not use the Ancient Emperor's Saber in his right hand. He put the saber behind his back, and his left hand spread open, smashing down on Xiao Yan's head.
Weng! Weng! Weng!
The space emitted bursts of explosive sounds, Xiao Yan shockingly discovered that the air in a radius of several miles around him seemed to have been sucked out in an instant, the space continuously collapsing towards him, wanting to squeeze him in the middle and crush him into meat paste.
Marquis Jing Huan's palm came crashing down like the majesty of an emperor. With a single command, heaven and earth obeyed.
The might of this Overlord's Token was actually a martial mystique that simulated the terrifying power of the world's destruction.
Xiao Yan had not personally experienced a battle with a late-stage Yuanying cultivator, but he had heard from Zhu Yi and other senior and junior brothers that the late-stage Yuanying patriarchs had powerful battle strength when they revealed their Heaven and Earth Dharma Powers.
However, none of them were as powerful as Marquis Jing Huan's Token, which was fused with the Heaven and Earth Dharma Powers.
Marquis Jing Huan's palm alone could shatter the Heaven and Earth Dharma Powers of most late-stage Yuanying cultivators!
Without relying on Primordial Spirit Dharma treasures, he could sweep through the Yuanying cultivators with his own cultivation. Few could match him.
"Ha, good move!" Xiao Yan sneered. The Sun True Fire in the center of his palm glowed with golden light, like thousands of needles clustered together. Suddenly, there was a change.
A flame that was also golden but flashed with red and blue light suddenly lit up in Xiao Yan's palm.
In both of Xiao Yan's eyes, two flames suddenly flashed separately. His left eye was pure gold, the flames were like needles, dazzling and eye-catching. His right eye was gold with red and blue colors, reflecting each other's brilliance.
He circulated his magic power to the limit, and his ten fingers moved nimbly as if they were plucking flowers. He instantly cast spell after spell seal into the True Fire in his palm.
An incomparably terrifying aura spread out. It was a powerful concept that could burn and destroy everything, even the creation of the world would be reduced to ashes.
"Firmament Fire Lotus!" Xiao Yan took a deep breath and suddenly clapped his palms together. The berserk flames calmed down and condensed into a golden lotus the size of a palm. In the middle of the lotus, the red and blue colored light turned into a stamen, gently swaying.
Xiao Yan, who had already reached the late-stage of the Golden Elixir realm, fused the flame lotus with his True Fire much more easily than it had been on Cloud Traversing Peak. It was smoother and faster, and he completed this incomparably terrifying Dharma spell in almost an instant.
He had been dormant for too long. Today, he would completely erupt and announce to the world that the eldest disciple of Xuanmen Tianzong, whose name had once shaken the divine continent, had officially returned!
At the same time, Marquis Jing Huan's Overlord Token palm came crashing down.
Without hesitation, Xiao Yan used the golden Firmament Fire Lotus in his hand to meet Marquis Jing Huan's Overlord Token. With a boom, the world of black light turned bright.
In the next moment, the void was engulfed by a boundless sea of flames. As far as the eye could see, there were boundless golden flames.
Even Fei Ye, who was a Great Sage, was surprised. Mo Yu, who was a late stage Demon King, and the two late stage Nascent Soul experts under Marquis Jing Huanhou were even more shocked. There was no need to talk about Marquis Jing Huanhou, but Xiao Yan's Firmament Fire Lotus after fusing two great True Fires was truly terrifying.
Such power would make ordinary late-stage Yuanying cultivators tremble in fear. This was a power that could destroy their Dharma Idol and even kill them.
The golden sea of flames was vast and mighty, and red and blue light danced in the air.
In the center of the sea of flames, Xiao Yan was like the emperor of flames, standing proudly. However, his expression was slightly solemn as he stared at Marquis Jing Huan, who was also in the sea of flames.
Marquis Jing Huan also stood in the sea of flames, turning a blind eye to the flames around him.
Xiao Yan thought to himself, This person is truly powerful. Even if Great Qin's Crown Prince Shi Chongyun cultivated to late-stage Yuanying, he might not be able to withstand my Firmament Fire Lotus. This person is truly capable of fighting it head-on with his physical body.
With such power, he can easily defeat an ordinary late-stage Yuanying cultivator. Compared to Xiao Yan, Marquis Jing Huan's expression was even more solemn. For the first time since he appeared, he looked surprised. "You fused two types of True Fires just now. One is the True Sun Fire, there's no mistake, but the second …"
"Oh, it's golden and flashes with red and blue light. That's the Nan Ming Li Fire. You actually have the Nan Ming Li Fire. Aside from the True Sun Fire and the Nan Ming Li Fire, you also have the Nether Evil Blaze." Marquis Jing Huan's eyes flashed as he said, "You don't have two True Fires. You actually have three True Fires at the same time?"
The moment he said this, everyone was shocked. At the same time, they looked at Xiao Yan in shock.
Even Fei Ye had forced the God Slaying Puppet to retreat. He paused the battle and looked at Xiao Yan. "This kid actually has three True Fires at the same time?"
Xiao Yan smiled faintly and did not say anything, which was equivalent to tacit agreement.
The space suddenly fell silent. Be it Marquis Jing Huan, Fei Ye, or Mo Yu, all of them had the same question in their minds.
Since Xiao Yan could fuse the power of two True Fires, could his Celestial Fire Lotus also fuse three True Fires at the same time?
The fusion of two True Fires already had such power. What if three True Fires fused at the same time?
It would not be as simple as two plus one equals three. How terrifying would the power be?
Marquis Jing Huan's gaze moved back and forth between Xiao Yan and Fei Ye. "To deal with this Xiao Yan, I have to use the Ancient Emperor Saber. However, the pressure on that Scarlet Phoenix will be reduced. Just one God Slaying Puppet won't be able to do anything to it."
"To deal with these two at the same time, I still need to use more trump cards. It's not good for me to expose too much now," Marquis Jing Huan thought to himself. "And I won't make it in time. The other phoenixes will be here soon to reinforce me."
With this thought, Marquis Jing Huan waved his hand, and the Ancient Emperor Saber returned to its scabbard. Black light flashed before his eyes, and even the Imperishable Imperial Flag was retracted. He released Xiao Yan, Fei Ye, and Mo Yu.
Then the Imperishable Imperial Flag fluttered in the wind, sweeping up Marquis Jing Huan and his subordinates as they flew away. They had actually left without any hesitation.
"Xuanmen Tianzong, you live up to your reputation." Marquis Jing Huan's voice reverberated through the air. "However, this Marquis will eventually have a chance to take this Black Phoenix. There's no rush.
"Xiao Yan, you ruined this Marquis's plans. This Marquis will settle the score with you in the future.
"However, if you have the time to meddle in other people's business, why don't you think about your own path of escape, Xuanmen Tianzong? This Marquis will give you a reminder. Your Junior Brother Shi Tianhao's rival, the dual-pupiled Shi Tianyi, has long since surpassed the Shi and Yu Clans.
