596. Chapter 596 Soul Palace Escape (1/2)
"Speed up! We're almost there!"
Cao Ying and the other two escorted the contestants to the evacuation point. Because Xiao Yan had led all the soul envoys there before, their retreat path was unobstructed. Except for the monsters in the Wanyao Mountain Range itself, there was almost no obstruction.
A few minutes later, everyone finally arrived at the bottom of the retreat mountain. When they were about to climb up, the entire Wanyao Mountain Range suddenly shook continuously, causing many people to fall to the ground unsteadily. Then a violent storm came from behind them.
"What is that?!"
Cao Ying looked back against the strong wind, her pupils suddenly contracted, and her body couldn't help shaking.
I saw that the direction they had left before was full of a thousand-meter-diameter pillar of fire, which made the soul tremble even at such a long distance.
No one would doubt that if they were caught in the pillar of fire, they would definitely be wiped out!
[I have my own way, but I can't use this method if you are present. 】
Xiao Yan's words lingered in Cao Ying's mind, causing her to purse her lips and clench her jade hands.
Is this the method you mentioned?
There is no need to doubt this kind of power. Even if Xiao Yan is the caster, he will not be able to escape.
"Xiao Yan."
Cao Ying instinctively turned around and wanted to go back, but she restrained herself.
She knew very well that she was a drag. If the battle was not over after she went back, she would be ashamed of Xiao Yan's desperate efforts.
Cao Ying clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, turned around and urged others.
"Go up quickly! Don't waste time here!"
"What is that?"
Qinghua and Mu Gu, who were fighting fiercely, were both stunned in place, looking at the sky-high fire column in the distance. Even though they were so far apart, the two Dou Zun felt the emotion of fear.
Even if the two of them were caught in the sky-high fire column, they would not be able to survive.
The color of the sky-high fire pillar is very similar to the flame characters that Xiao Yan used to write in the air. Could it be that Xiao Yan created this sky-high fire pillar? !
Qinghua slowly came back to his senses after being shocked for a long time, and glanced at Mu Gu.
"Mu Gu, do you want to continue fighting?"
Hearing Qinghua's question, Mu Gu's heart was awed, and his dry and old face was full of unwillingness.
He just felt that it was Venerable Huanyu and the others who were fighting against Xiao Yan. He thought that no matter how different Xiao Yan was from ordinary people, he was just a Dou Zong after all. In addition, Venerable Huanyu and the other three people joined forces to fight against even five-star Dou Zun. Therefore, Mu Gu never thought that Hun Yan and the other three might lose.
But now it seems that the result is really uncertain. Hun Yan and the other three are likely to be buried in this sky-high fire pillar, and the other soul envoys are basically dead or injured.
If he continues to stay here, it will probably be bad.
"Hmph!" Mu Gu's face was grim, and he stared at Qinghua, "Qinghua, you are lucky this time!"
After the words fell, Mu Gu's figure turned into a black smoke and disappeared neatly, and Qinghua had no intention of chasing him.
He and Mu Gu were only evenly matched, and Qinghua himself was not 100% sure of defeating Mu Gu, so there was no need to chase him relentlessly.
"But this guy is tough, and his ability to escape is also first-class."
Qinghua sneered in a low voice, and then looked at the gradually dissipating Tongtian Fire Pillar with a serious face, frowning tightly.
To be honest, he still didn't quite believe that this Tongtian Fire Pillar was created by Xiao Yan, even though the facts were in front of him.
And with this level of attack, even if Xiao Yan was the caster, he would probably be implicated.
(Have the others already gone to the evacuation point?)
Qinghua sensed the location of Cao Ying and others, and then thought for a moment, turned around and rushed in the direction of Xiao Yan.
Although it is unlikely, let's go and see if the boy is still alive.
It would be a pity if such an outstanding young man died in this conspiracy of the Soul Palace.
Damn it
Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it!
Bai Gui also felt the power of the sky-high fire pillar, but at this time he didn't even have the energy to be shocked. He focused on facing Nalan Yanran in front of him and didn't dare to be distracted at all!
Clang!
Another blood-red sword light flashed, and a horrifying blood mark was cut on Bai Gui's chest again. This was the result of Bai Gui's desperate avoidance, otherwise he would have been cut in half by Nalan Yanran!
At this time, Bai Gui's mind was filled with doubts.
From the casual instant kill at the beginning, to the equal strength in the middle, until now he was actually at a disadvantage!
What a joke? ! I am a two-star Dou Zun! Facing a seven-star Dou Zong, I was actually at a disadvantage? Don't even make up a story like this!
However, no matter how contrary to common sense this fact is, it is still a fact after all, and Bai Gui, as the party involved, has no right to doubt it.
What he regretted most at this moment was that he took the initiative to find Nalan Yanran to cause trouble.
(Damn it! If I continue like this, I will die here sooner or later!)
With this judgment, Bai Gui no longer had the idea of defeating Nalan Yanran in his heart, and he had begun to think about how to escape from her.
However, Nalan Yanran would not let him go so easily.
Whenever Bai Gui wanted to escape, Nalan Yanran was like a hungry wolf chasing prey, biting his body tightly and not letting him leave, making Bai Gui more and more panicked.
"Ah!"
Nalan Yanran suddenly roared, and her bloody body suddenly burst out with unprecedented speed, rushing towards Bai Gui.
Bai Gui was startled, knowing that he could not dodge, and immediately gathered his hands together, aiming at Nalan Yanran who was rushing towards him, with a frightening black thunder flashing in his palms.
"Monster! Die!!!"
Bai Gui roared, and the black thunder burst out.
He himself did not even realize that his name for Nalan Yanran had changed from [ant] to [monster].
With one blow, Nalan Yanran's figure was instantly crushed to pieces!
However, this scene did not make Bai Gui feel any joy, but instead made his hair stand on end.
How could this monster be solved so easily? If it was really that simple, how could he have fought so hard?
In other words, what he shattered with this blow was not Nalan Yanran's body, but her afterimage!
The moment Bai Gui realized it, he suddenly raised his head and saw Nalan Yanran holding the scarlet sword in one hand and swinging it down at him with a ferocious look on her face. The blood-red sword even tore through the space it passed through!
The speed of this attack was so fast that it was impossible to avoid it!
(I, a dignified Dou Zun, would die at the hands of a Dou Zong.)
Bai Gui felt resentful and unwilling, but he was powerless and could only watch the blunt sword that was about to cut his head in half!
Boom!!!
Just when Bai Gui thought he was doomed and Nalan Yanran's blood-red sword was only three inches away from his head, a space shock suddenly hit Nalan Yanran's body and knocked her out heavily. Bai Gui was stunned at first, and then he looked overjoyed and turned his head to look at the solemn old man in the sky behind him.
"Venerable Night Demon!"
Venerable Night Demon, a senior of the Soul Hall, is a three-star Dou Zun. He is the strongest person in the Soul Hall who came to the Wanyao Mountains this time, except for Mu Gu.
Although Venerable Night Demon is in the team of the Soul Hall this time, he actually has no intention of taking action.
Because according to the strength gap between the Soul Hall and the contestants of the Alchemy Association, even if he does not take action, it is absolutely enough, so his job is to guard the outside of the entire Wanyao Mountains to prevent Danta from getting the news and sending people.
As for whether to transfer the Soul Hall or continue to execute the orders of the Hall Master, it depends on who Danta sends.
However, what Night Demon did not expect was that during his defense outside the Wanyao Mountains, the Soul Hall inside would suffer such heavy losses.
Those soul messengers died, but even Bai Gui and Venerable Huanyu were so embarrassed, which was too outrageous and a completely unexpected situation.
If he had come a little later, Bai Gui would have died at the hands of Nalan Yanran, not to mention Hun Yan and the other two. Even he was afraid of the sky-high fire pillar. Even if they had the magic fox, they would still be destroyed.
"Retreat quickly, we can't waste time any longer!"
Ye Mo immediately ordered Bai Gui. The loss of the three people of Huan Yu Zun was enough for the hall master to scold him. If Bai Gui and Mu Gu died here again, he would be severely punished as the person in charge of this operation!
Bai Gui was overjoyed when he heard Ye Mo's order. He was trembling with fear just now, fearing that Ye Mo would propose to join forces to deal with Nalan Yanran.
As someone who had fought with Nalan Yanran for so long, he knew Nalan Yanran's current combat power very well. There was no doubt that Bai Gui was now completely afraid of Nalan Yanran and never wanted to face this monster again.
He couldn't kill her, and the more he fought, the more difficult it became. He was like a fearless mad dog that wouldn't let go of people. Who wouldn't be scared?
However, before Bai Gui could respond, Nalan Yanran's roar came again, causing Bai Gui to tremble. He turned his head suddenly and saw Nalan Yanran rushing over with a long sword.
This monster!
Bai Gui's expression was distorted, and he couldn't help but take two steps back. Ye Mo frowned tightly, and then put his hands in front of him to seal, and turned into a black giant hand to smash Nalan Yanran without any effort.
Bai Gui was only one level lower than himself, but the battle with Nalan Yanran, a Dou Zong, was so bumpy. Ye Mo would not be like a brainless person and think that Bai Gui was too useless.
Since it was not Bai Gui's problem, the problem was with Nalan Yanran.
Therefore, Ye Mo would not hold back at all and try his best to wipe out Nalan Yanran with one blow!
"Soul Black Hand!"
This is a unique skill of the Soul Palace. It is both a fighting skill and a soul skill, which can cause double damage to the enemy's body and soul.
And this is a blow that Night Demon used all his strength. Even if a one-star Dou Zun was hit head-on, he would instantly disappear and his soul would be scattered!
If Nalan Yanran was in a normal situation, she would definitely feel the threat of this blow to herself.
Although Nalan Yanran can recover infinitely, it is also when her soul is still alive. If her soul is destroyed in an instant, she will die immediately even if she has blood madness.
However, it is a pity that Nalan Yanran in the blood madness state has no brain at all, and she doesn't know what fear is.
Therefore, facing the soul black hand that cannot be avoided, Nalan Yanran just let out a violent roar, and then hit it more fiercely!
Bang!
"Ahhh!!!"
The moment she came into contact with the soul black hand, Nalan Yanran let out a miserable wail that resounded through the sky. From the body to the soul, she felt unbearable pain. Even if she was irrational, she could not ignore such pain.
If it weren't for the Wanling Ambergris Fruit she had taken a few days ago, which had tempered her soul and body, Nalan Yanran would have disappeared instantly without even feeling the pain.
Even so, as the Soul Black Hand continued to crush Nalan Yanran, Nalan Yanran's recovery ability was gradually weakened, her struggle became less and less, and the effect of the blood madness became weaker and weaker.
The moment the blood madness was completely relieved, it was the end of Nalan Yanran's death!
In just a few seconds, Nalan Yanran, whose body and soul were both severely injured, finally could no longer continue to maintain the blood madness, and completely lost consciousness, allowing the remaining power of the Soul Black Hand to devour her.
For this result, Ye Mo was not surprised, but he was also very frightened.
It was strange that this girl could resist the Soul Black Hand's full-strength attack for so long.
However, although the process was a bit abnormal, the result did not change.
Nalan Yanran will disappear here forever.
The Night Demon looked down at Nalan Yanran who was about to be crushed by the Soul Black Hand, and spoke proudly.
"You are proud enough to die under my full-strength attack."
"Roar!!!"
A roar that resounded through the sky interrupted the Night Demon's words, and then in the stunned eyes of the Night Demon, a sturdy black shadow suddenly rushed to Nalan Yanran's side, grabbed Nalan Yanran's arm with one hand and threw her behind him, and with the other hand, he suddenly punched the Soul Black Hand, which had only half of its power left, into pieces!
The overlord of the Wanyao Mountain Range, the ancient dragon Xiong Zhan!
"This girl hasn't compensated me with the Wanling Dragon Saliva Fruit yet, so I can't let you kill her like this!"
Xiong Zhan's voice was very powerful, and his sturdy body revealed an invisible pressure, which made the Night Demon's expression change, and he immediately identified Xiong Zhan's strength that was similar to his own and his identity as an ancient dragon bear.
"Let's go!"
The Night Demon grabbed the White Ghost and left without any hesitation.
Even if he had not exhausted all his strength after the attack just now, only one third of his fighting spirit remained in his body. It was difficult for Xiong Zhan to resist against a Xiong Zhan of the same level, not to mention that the opponent was an ancient dragon bear. If he continued to drag it out, he might really die here.
As for that girl, if this didn't kill her, Ye Mo had nothing to say, just consider it her luck.
Watching Ye Mo and Bai Gui disappear in an instant, Xiong Zhan spat, his eyes full of contempt.
"Bah! These guys from the Soul Palace have no other skills, but their escape skills are really first-class!"
Then Xiong Zhan turned his head and looked at Nalan Yanran, who was completely unconscious by his arm. Her body was covered with horrible scars, and even half of her face was almost disfigured.
To be honest, it was a miracle that she was still alive with this injury.
Fortunately, she had lost consciousness, otherwise Xiong Zhan really doubted whether this girl would fight with him who came to help her again. Xiong Zhan had a deep understanding of this.
"Crazy girl, I really don't know why you work so hard."
Xiong Zhan shook his head slightly. Only a real madman could create the skill of blood madness.
Then Xiong Zhan carried Nalan Yanran on his shoulders, turned around and left, complaining.
"Really, I'm going to waste a lot of medicinal materials on you again."
On the way back, Xiong Zhan glanced at the direction of the burning fire column, and sighed in his heart that the Wanyao Mountain Range was really full of disasters today, but he didn't think of going over to take a look.
No matter how terrifying the fire column was, it had nothing to do with me, right? (End of this chapter)
