Chapter 208: Angry Buddha Lotus Flame, Terrifying Beyond Words!

"Ah, you spat out blood!"

Ling Quan pressed his left hand on his broken right arm, unable to hold back a mouthful of fresh blood, and his breath quickly became dispirited.

"Deputy Commander!"

The dozen or so members of the Black Submerged Army who followed Ling Quan were all dumbfounded. They never expected that Ling Quan, who had one foot into the Dou Ancestor realm, would be so embarrassingly defeated by a Dou King!

"Flowery spear technique, slow seal formation, and unstable Dou Qi. This deputy commander of the Black Submerged Army is far below my expectations, truly disappointing. I have only four words for you—utterly worthless!"

Yun Tianming looked at the defeated Ling Quan with a contemptuous sneer.

In fact, with Ling Quan's strength, he shouldn't have lost so quickly. However, when he was using the Mountain Opening Seal, Yun Tianming seized a flaw and forcefully interrupted it, causing Ling Quan's meridians to be damaged and rendering one of his arms useless on the spot.

"Argh!"

Ling Quan's face flushed as red as blood, and his previously dispirited Dou Qi suddenly surged. Violent lightning Dou Qi blasted towards Yun Tianming's head!

"Useless fury."

With his superior Soul Perception, Yun Tianming anticipated the attack, using his Motionless Thunder Roar technique to easily dodge the enraged blow.

"You lowborn ant, what right do you have to evaluate this commander?"

Ling Quan's face was twisted, and blood filled his eyes, making him look particularly terrifying.

"Secret Technique? 1 Star Dou Ancestor."

Yun Tianming's eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained largely unchanged.

"Is it really the Blood Transformation Technique? The deputy commander is being irrational. How could he even use such a self-destructive secret technique?"

The nearby Black Submerged Army soldiers all showed looks of horror. The Blood Transformation Technique burns the essence blood within the body, causing a short-term surge in combat power but leaving severe aftereffects. It is usually only used in life-and-death battles.

In front of them, Yun Tianming had no personal enmity with them, and verbal conflicts were trivial. Ling Quan's reckless use of the Blood Transformation Technique was purely a case of losing his head!

"A fool who brings humiliation upon himself."

Xun'er shook her head, a faint cold smile on her lips.

"Yun Tianming! To be able to push me, the vice-commander, to this point, you can die with some honor!"

In the sky, Ling Quan was surrounded by lightning, with faint traces of blood-red color spreading out. His eyes were fixed on Yun Tianming, and with a gesture, a lightning spear filled with blood streaks gradually condensed again.

"You must have damaged your brain."

Yun Tianming chuckled lightly, not wasting any more words. He spread his hands, with the Green Lotus Core Flame in one hand and the Sea Heart Flame in the other. Using the Flame Mantra Qi Method, he merged the two together.

"This Dou Technique again!"

Xun'er's pupils contracted, and a look of seriousness flashed across her face.

If it weren't for the two elders, Qian and Bai, who were the guardians of the inner academy, stepping in just in time to neutralize the terrifying energy from the clash of their Dou Techniques, she would have likely ended up severely injured.

"What? Two types of Heavenly Flames? What are you trying to do!!"

Ling Quan's face changed drastically, his gaze falling on the two Heavenly Flames being fused in Yun Tianming's hands, his eyelids twitching involuntarily. Aren't you afraid that thing will explode right here and now?

"Making you a big surprise."

Yun Tianming concentrated intently, gathering the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame.

"You think I'll just watch you complete it?"

Ling Quan's face darkened. He was truly anxious. If this strange Dou Technique were completed, it might be as powerful as the Emperor's Decree! However, with the crucial meridians in his arm damaged, he couldn't gather the Emperor's Decree and could only try to interrupt Yun Tianming's Dou Technique with all his might.

Stepping on the void, Ling Quan's speed was extremely fast. After using the secret technique, his strength had reached the true Dou Ancestor realm!

"Boom~"

A dull thunder sounded, and Yun Tianming's figure retreated rapidly like lightning.

"Space Lock!"

Ling Quan's hands moved, distorting the space around Yun Tianming from a distance.

"Swoosh—!"

Dou Qi Wings and Dark Feather Wings appeared on Yun Tianming's back. With the double wings, his speed increased further. Using his powerful Soul Perception, he found a gap in the space and successfully flew out before Ling Quan could lock the space.

"Damn it!"

Ling Quan's face was unsightly. Manipulating Spatial Strength is a sign of a Dou Ancestor, but with his 1 Star Dou Ancestor strength, the range of space he could control was very limited, making it impossible to catch Yun Tianming.

"Hey! You idiots!"

"What are you still standing there for?"

"Come help!"

Ling Quan suddenly turned his head and ordered the silently watching Black Submerged Army subordinates.

"Uh..."

Everyone looked at each other, seemingly not expecting that even after using the Blood Transformation Technique, Ling Quan still couldn't suppress a mere Dou King.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ A Dou Ancestor fighting a Dou King and still needing backup, you, deputy commander, are simply disgracing the Black Submerged Army."

Yun Tianming dodged effortlessly. The Angry Buddha Lotus Flame in his hand was about to be completed, and a wanton smile appeared on his face.

"Miss, what do you think?"

The Black Submerged Army did not rashly follow Ling Quan's orders. Instead, they turned their gaze to Xun'er. They weren't fools; the young lady had clearly stated that Yun Tianming was her friend. If they followed Ling Quan's orders and went against Yun Tianming, there would be no good outcome for them when they returned to the Gu Clan.

"Ignore him, he's an utterly foolish person."

Xun'er coldly instructed, directly nullifying Ling Quan's command to the Black Submerged Army.

"Yes, Miss!"

The Black Submerged Army decisively and wisely took their stand.

Joking aside, Ling Quan might have backing, but could it surpass the young lady's?

"You all..."

Ling Quan's face twisted in anger. Before he could curse at his subordinates, an extremely dangerous aura suddenly drew his attention back to Yun Tianming.

In Yun Tianming's hands appeared a magnificent Fire Lotus alternating between green and blue. As it was sent out, the Fire Lotus left a long trail of flames in the air, distorting space along its path!

"This, how is such a Dou Technique possible!!"

Ling Quan was shocked, hastily and frantically channeling all his Dou Qi, trying to suppress the terrifying Fire Lotus with his Dou Ancestor strength.

"Boom——!!"

With a deafening explosion, the Fire Lotus instantly expanded a thousand times, engulfing Ling Quan completely!

"What a terrifying Dou Technique."

Xun'er, already prepared, summoned the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame (sub-flame) to protect herself.

Although the Black Submerged Army soldiers knew this Dou Technique was dangerous, they still underestimated the destructive power of the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame. Despite using their own defenses, they were still blown about in disarray. Even the Sixth Rank Magic Beasts, the black gryphon, was startled, scattering in a panic.

"That's enough, Yun Tianming."

Xun'er's cold voice rang out.

"In light of Xun'er's face, I'll spare your pathetic life."

With a thought, Yun Tianming restrained the energy of the Heavenly Flame.

In the sky, a charred figure fell to the ground, none other than the barely breathing Ling Quan.

The Black Submerged Army soldiers showed expressions of fear, feeling a sense of relief. Fortunately, they had followed the young lady's instructions and did not go against Yun Tianming. Otherwise, with their Dou Emperor strength, facing this terrifying Fire Lotus, they would likely have perished on the spot!
