This scene that had suddenly appeared in the arena caused the expressions on the faces of all the elite Dou Di present to instantly solidify. Numerous gazes were stunned as they stared at the black-robed human figure in the arena. The expression on their faces gradually turned into one of disbelief.
This was really unbelievable. The attack of a seven star Dou Di was actually blocked by a black-robed, young man in a situation where he had not even used his Dou Qi. Moreover, from the looks of it, he was actually able to do it in such a relaxed manner. This was something that was impossible!
At this moment, even the two eight star Dou Di involuntarily threw surprised gazes at Xiao Yan. Even the heart of the seven star Dou Di, who was the person involved at this moment, was filled with shock. He was unable to control his entire body in the face of great fear.
Soon after, Xiao Yan's wrist shook gently. His palm landed on the latter's fist. A powerful force immediately spluttered outwards. With just one strike, this strong man was forced back. Only after dozens of steps did his swaying body come to a halt.
"Do you still want to continue?"
Xiao Yan was unconcerned as he smiled and asked.
"No, no, no … don't … don't … don't …"
That strong man's heart was suddenly startled when he heard Xiao Yan's words. He hurriedly waved his hand as a greeting and continued to pull back. However, no one mocked him at this moment. This was because just the strength that Xiao Yan had displayed earlier was something that no one present, other than the two eight star Dou Di, dared to say that they could block.
Immediately, everyone present involuntarily threw grave gazes at Xiao Yan. The faces of the two eight star Dou Di were even more solemn. This black-robed, young man who appeared very young, likely possessed a strength that was not inferior to theirs. Fortunately, the person who had attacked was not them. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if they were to fight with him.
Xiao Yan's gaze was cold as it swept over those elite Dou Di around him. This time around, anyone who met his gaze involuntarily shrank back. Only the two eight star Dou Di did not avoid him as they walked out from the crowd. They cupped their hands to Xiao Yan and laughed.
"The old me is Liu Hao."
"My name is Chi Rui."
Then, the two old men looked at each other with cold gazes. Only then did they smile at Xiao Yan and say,
"May I know your name?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at the two old men. After hesitating for a while, he smiled and said in a calm tone, "What are you talking about?
"I am Xiao Yan."
"Xiao Yan?"
"He's Xiao Yan …"
"He's the Xiao Yan who made a one-year agreement with the four great sects?"
"Then doesn't that mean he holds the key to opening the Ancient Tomb of Heaven's End?!"
"I didn't expect him to be here so early. Moreover, looking at his strength, no wonder he dares to challenge the Four Great Sects."
The instant Xiao Yan said his name, a wave of surprised private discussions was immediately emitted from the crowd. At the same time, those gazes that were looking at Xiao Yan contained an additional surprise.
Hearing the words that were emitted from the crowd, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. Immediately, he calmed down.
Although he was surprised that these people were actually aware of the agreement between him and the Four Great Sects, things had already developed to this point. Even if he went to clarify things, there was no longer any meaning.
The only thing that Xiao Yan was a little worried about was that he did not know just what kind of storm this matter would stir up. Originally, he thought that if it was only him and the people from the Four Great Sects, his chances of finding the Origin Skill would definitely be much higher. However, from the looks of it, this matter was likely to be more troublesome than he had imagined.
After randomly exchanging two sentences with the two eight star Dou Di, Xiao Yan immediately moved his body and landed at the edge of the cliff. He sat down cross-legged and raised his hand. Ten steel needles were agglomerated in his palm.
Controlling the ten steel needles with his mind, Xiao Yan carefully observed them. The scene from earlier repeatedly replayed in his mind.
The ten steel needles shot out and entered in unison. They actually entered the energy light curtain at the same time.
Such a powerful strength was something that Xiao Yan admitted that he would not be able to achieve even if he used the Seven Layered Sky Breaking Ruler. Among all the Dou Skills that he possessed, it was likely that only the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame's strength could surpass it.
However, the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame greatly exhausted one's Dou Qi. Once it was used, Xiao Yan would definitely descend into a weakened state. He must not use it unless it was a critical moment.
Compared to the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame, the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame might be a little weaker. However, the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame only exhausted the Great Dao Strength. Moreover, the steel needles were divided into ten. The number that was exhausted was completely up to Xiao Yan. Once the situation changed, he could completely transform them into a Great Dao Barrier and use it to dodge.
Hence, in comparison, the effect that these ten steel needles brought to Xiao Yan was undoubtedly greater.
With the strength of these steel needles, even a nine star Dou Di would be left with an injury that was difficult to recover from once they were hit. As long as he caught them off guard, Xiao Yan had a certain degree of confidence that he would be able to hold them back the next time they met!
At the same time, in the Western Lin Region, Green Hunchback Mountain.
"Damn it. Who was it that leaked the news? Now, the entire Western Region knows that we are about to enter the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb. Humph, with the habits of those hungry wolves in the Western Wastelands, I'm afraid that they are already waiting for us at the 'Desolate Cliff'!"
Wu Jitian cursed with a ferocious expression in the large hall. The tea table beside his hand had been turned into dust by his palm. Even the chair that he was sitting on had already swayed. One could see just how furious his heart was at this moment.
"Ke ke, Sect Leader Wu, there is no need for you to be angry. When we made the agreement with Xiao Yan one year ago, everyone in Sha He City clearly heard it. It is only reasonable that they would be aware of it. Now, the most important thing is the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb and those few factions. There is no need to worry about the others."
Chen Zhen, who was wearing a golden robe, had an unconcerned face as he sat on the leader's seat. The other two people in the large hall also nodded slightly when they heard these words from his mouth.
"That's right. What Chief Chen Zhen said is true. The real trouble that we need to face is those few factions. That Xiao Yan is merely a bug that is detestable. Back then, we made the agreement that we would not touch him within the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb. However, that is merely within the Tian Jue Ancient Tomb. At the very most, we can just finish him off before we enter to avoid any more trouble."
Jian Ming's strength had actually once again advanced during this one year. He had already stepped into the peak of the advanced eight star Dou Di class. He was only a step away from the nine star Dou Di class.
"Ke ke, it is unexpected that Chief Jian has already stepped into the peak of the advanced eight star Dou Di class after not seeing him for a year. It is likely that he will break through to the ninth star in a couple of years."
Chen Zhen smiled as he looked at Jian Ming and spoke with a fake smile.
"Chief Chen Zhen really praises me too much. However, I am still far inferior when compared to you. After all, you and Chief Wu have both stepped into the nine star Dou Di class. Oh, that's right. I have forgotten that there are four of us here. Chief Ye's strength should have also improved after not seeing me for a year, right?"
Jian Ming's tone changed as he mocked Ye Luotian.
"Ke ke, the old me was lucky and broke through to the intermediate star Dou Di class not long ago. I can be considered to have fallen behind the three of you. I have embarrassed myself in front of the three of you."
"Ha ha ha ha, this is a small matter. The way of training is all about progressing step by step. It is a good thing to be able to break through. Ha ha ha ha …"
Chen Zhen, who was seated in the leader's seat, laughed out loud. The smile on his face contained some ridicule.
"That's right. It is rumored that quite a number of disciples within your sect have taken the initiative to withdraw from the sect not long ago. May I know if this is true?"
Chen Zhen's face carried a playful smile as he continued to look at the latter after laughing out loud. Wu Jitian and Jian Ming threw their gazes toward the latter after these words were spoken. The corner of their mouths carried a slight smile. The cold smile in their eyes was not hidden at all.
"Ugh … ke ke, since they are willing to withdraw, even if I am the chief, I cannot control their wills. I am merely following the will of the heavens."
Ye Luotian waved his sleeves and smiled. His old face revealed an amiable smile. It was as though he was unconcerned.
However, who knew where those disciples who had disappeared from the sect had gone to …
