Chapter 240: One Against Four!

"Ding ding ding ding ding~"

Sharp metal feathers struck Yun Tianming's Dark Feather Wings like a torrential rain of pear blossoms. Although the power of the Heavenly Flame neutralized most of the metal feathers' attacks, the strength of Yan Luotian, a Dou Ancestor powerhouse, still managed to transmit some of the force to Yun Tianming, causing him some harm.

"This level of attack is nothing more than a tickle."

Yun Tianming flapped his wings and sped towards Yan Luotian.

"Courting death!"

Yan Luotian's golden wings vibrated at high frequency, and he stepped into the void, rushing toward Yun Tianming at an even faster speed.

"Boom boom boom~"

A dull thunderclap exploded as Yun Tianming transformed into lightning, flashing at high speed without losing any ground in terms of speed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Two afterimages collided rapidly in the air, generating energy so intense that even an ordinary Dou Emperor powerhouse found it difficult to approach.

"Damn it, how can this guy's speed be on par with my Heavenly Geese Nine Wings?"

Yan Luotian's expression was extremely grim, and he then shouted at the Mulan Three Elders, who were watching from the sidelines, "What are you all standing there for? Join in!"

A Dou Ancestor can't suppress a Dou Emperor, and you still have the nerve to shout?

The Mulan Three Elders resisted the urge to retort, but they joined the battle anyway.

"Three Beast Savage Skill!"

Using the characteristics of their Qi Method, they concentrated their Dou Qi into one of them, granting that person the combat power to rival a Dou Ancestor.

"Whoosh!"

"Die!"

A powerful blow with the strength of a Dou Ancestor was launched at Yun Tianming's back.

"Clang!"

A surge of golden Dou Qi erupted from Yun Tianming's body, forming an indestructible shield that completely blocked the Dou Ancestor's attack.

"Golden Immortal!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

He punched Yan Luotian and kicked Elder Mulan, sending both of them flying.

"Yan Luotian, Mulan Three Elders, a bunch of worthless trash!"

Jia Xing Tian saw this and cursed in anger, then immediately summoned a massive wave of sand to rush toward Yun Tianming.

With a sweep of his Soul Perception, Yun Tianming remained motionless.

"Whoosh!"

A large white arrow shot down from Misty Cloud Mountain, shattering the sand wave.

"Outnumbering and ambushing, how disgraceful, Jia Xing Tian!"

Yun Shan coldly mocked.

"Disgraceful? What a joke!"

"Yun Shan, do you really think you can match me now?"

Jia Xing Tian snorted coldly, unleashing a surge of overwhelming Dou Qi.

The sudden, powerful aura caused Yan Luotian and the Mulan Three Elders to change their expressions.

"3 Star Dou Ancestor?! That's impossible!"

Yun Shan was immediately shocked. Jia Xing Tian had advanced to Dou Ancestor even later than he did, and he was only a 1 Star Dou Ancestor. How could the latter suddenly jump to 3 Stars?

"Heh! Nothing is impossible; the tide has turned in our favor now!"

A strange red glow flashed in Jia Xing Tian's eyes, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Old Sect Master, there's no need to worry."

"The strength he's gained through the Hall of Souls' Secret Technique is nothing but a facade."

Yun Tianming instantly saw through Jia Xing Tian's unstable Dou Qi.

Just like Yun Shan in the original story, Jia Xing Tian used the power of the Hall of Souls to reach the superficial level of a 3 Star Dou Ancestor, but his actual combat strength is quite weak.

"You even know about the Hall of Souls."

Jia Xing Tian's face darkened. He had risked the fate of the entire royal family to obtain this power from the Hall of Souls, only to be casually dismissed by Yun Tianming, which greatly displeased him.

"Whether it's superficial or not, let me show you!"

"Landslide!"

Furious and embarrassed, Jia Xing Tian gathered a vast sea of sand to form a giant hand that pressed down on Yun Tianming.

"Jia Xing Tian, your opponent is me!"

"Great Sorrowful Wind Tearing Hand!"

A massive energy hand, several meters high, emerged from Yun Shan's palm, charged with fierce wind, and clashed directly with the giant sand hand. Yun Shan was surprised to find that, although his opponent's level was two stars higher, the actual power difference didn't seem significant. This was because Yun Shan, in this world, had advanced to Dou Ancestor through proper cultivation of an Earth Rank Qi Method, making his Dou Qi especially solid.

"Feathered freak and the three animal elders, it's your turn."

Yun Tianming clenched his fists, which glowed with a golden light.

"What did you say?!"

"You brat, you'll pay for this!"

Yan Luotian and the Mulan Three Elders, furious and flushed, immediately joined forces to attack Yun Tianming.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Yun Tianming fought four opponents at once without losing ground.

"This kid is using an Earth Rank High-Level Dou Technique!"

A greedy glint flashed in Xie Bi Yan's eyes. While Yun Tianming was busy fighting the four of them, Xie Bi Yan secretly gathered Dou Qi to launch a sneak attack. But just then, a powerful aura locked onto him.

"Hmph!"

"Four against one isn't enough? How shameless, you old scoundrel!"

Yun Yun, dressed in a long palace gown, descended gracefully from the clouds, her gaze coldly fixed on Xie Bi Yan.

"What powerful Dou Qi, 6 Star Dou Ancestor?!"

Xie Bi Yan's pupils contracted, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

"Extreme Wind Killer Meteorite!"

Yun Yun raised her hand and unleashed a sharp wind blade.

"Slash~"

Xie Bi Yan couldn't dodge in time, and his shoulder was pierced by a bloody hole. Just as Yun Yun was about to press her advantage, a surge of blood-red Dou Qi erupted from Xie Bi Yan's body.

"Hmph! Don't be so arrogant, Yun Yun! I've cultivated for so many years; I refuse to believe I can't handle a junior like you!"

A blood-colored scorpion emerged from Xie Bi Yan's chest, and its eerie power healed the wound on his shoulder.

"Seventh Rank Magic Beast: Blood Demon Scorpion Emperor?"

Yun Yun's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"When I advanced to Dou Ancestor years ago, I paid a great price to obtain the soul of a Blood Demon Scorpion Emperor and sealed it within my body to refine. Today, I'll show you the power of my Ten Thousand Scorpions Gate's Blood Soul Technique at its peak!"

The blood-colored scorpion fully merged into Xie Bi Yan's body, transforming his arms into monstrous scorpion pincers, and a long scorpion tail grew from his back. His aura also surged from the peak of 4 Star Dou Ancestor to the level of a 6 Star Dou Ancestor.

"It's just a forced enhancement through a Secret Technique. You're not my match!"

Yun Yun, wielding a longsword, took the initiative to attack, and the two engaged in an intense battle.

"Sister Yun'er is doing fine."

Yun Tianming looked away.

"Kid, where are you looking?!"

The Mulan Three Elders launched a combined attack, gathering a massive beast-head Dou Qi.

"I'm looking at my wife. I don't need to focus too much to deal with you."

Yun Tianming's Golden Light Fist shattered the beast-head Dou Qi with a single blow. However, due to Yan Luotian's interference, he couldn't follow up with an attack on the Mulan Three Elders.

"Heh! Kid, the Dou Technique you're using must consume a lot of energy, right?"

"This Sect Master would like to see how long you, a mere Dou Emperor, can keep this up."

Yan Luotian's metallic wings vibrated as he swiftly flew around without attacking, aiming to wear down Yun Tianming's Dou Qi.

"Fighting four at once is indeed a bit troublesome, but as long as I take you down one by one, it won't be a problem."

"Boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a massive thunderbolt struck down from the sky, hitting Yun Tianming and unleashing a dazzling flash of lightning. Everyone instinctively blinked, and when they opened their eyes, Yun Tianming stood still, but three phantoms emerged from his body.

"Motionless Thunder Roar · Four Phase Thunder!"

"What?!"

Yan Luotian and the Mulan Three Elders widened their eyes in shock. They instinctively used Soul Perception, but they couldn't determine which of the four figures was Yun Tianming's true body.
