"Sea Overturning Seal!"
As Xun'er's low shout fell, her delicate jade hand pushed towards the sky, and an immense Dou Qi suddenly surged forth. Amidst this immense energy, a layer of jade-green membrane quietly formed!
The strange jade-green membrane quickly enveloped Xun'er's handprint, and in an instant, a crystalline jade-green light imprint, the same size as the handprint, shot out violently!
This light imprint, as if cast from jade-green crystal, was extraordinarily magnificent. However, the immense energy contained within was extremely terrifying. As it flew, it caused the space to distort, and the air was compressed into a very noticeable concave arc.
Judging by its momentum alone, its power was several times higher than the previous Mountain Opening Seal. For a Dou King to be able to unleash it was truly terrifying!
"Angry Buddha Lotus Flame!"
In contrast, the azure green Fire Lotus thrown by Yun Tianming appeared restrained at first glance, completely unlike a dangerous Dou Technique. However, wrapped in Flame Mantra Dou Qi, it gave the illusion of calmness. It was difficult to imagine the terrifying power contained within the two Heavenly Flames!
Under the gaze of countless onlookers, the jade-green light imprint collided head-on with the azure Fire Lotus.
"————"
Silence.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The clash between the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame and the Sea Overturning Seal, expected to be earth-shattering, did not materialize as expected. Instead, the two terrifying energies transformed into jade-green and azure colors in the sky, continuously eroding each other. At the point of contact, the space distorted intensely, leaving people worried that the space might rupture!
"Everyone, retreat a hundred meters away!!"
Su Qian shouted loudly. The clash of their Dou Techniques had surpassed the power of an ordinary Dou Ancestor. Even he, if caught in the middle, would be severely injured!
"Mentor Yun."
"Junior Sister Xun'er."
Everyone, filled with incredulity and shock, hastily retreated further back.
They couldn't imagine that these two young people, around their own age, or even a few years younger, possessed terrifying power far beyond their understanding!
"Yun Tianming, you... you're really so powerful? Looks like I can't bully him casually anymore."
Zi Yan stuck out her tongue in a frightened manner. Even the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python wrapped around her arm raised its head, its light purple eyes shimmering strangely.
Cai Lin remained silent.
"Buzzing——"
Amidst the erosion of the two terrifying energies, massive energy ripples spread out nearly a hundred meters in diameter from the point of impact, almost tangible. Under these terrifying energy ripples, even a Dou King level figure would perish.
The range affected by the energy ripples was vast, nearly encompassing a hundred meters in radius. For a moment, the sky howled with fierce winds, and the clouds churned rapidly. Such earth-shaking phenomena left countless people pale with fear and trembling hearts.
"Can't hold it, the spatial blockade is failing!"
Su Qian was exerting all his Spatial Strength, trying to suppress the terrifying energy impact, only to quickly realize it surpassed what he, a 3-Star Dou Ancestor, could contain. Seeing that the clash of their Dou Techniques was about to break through the spatial blockade he had constructed, Su Qian reluctantly crushed an ancient jade token.
Two streaks of light swiftly flew from the horizon, accompanied by several flickers traversing the air, two seemingly ordinary gray-robed elders.
"Crystal Hand Seal? Could they be from that Family?"
"And what about this Heavenly Flame? Why does its explosive power feel stronger than the Fallen Heart Flame?"
The two were none other than the guardians of Jia Nan Academy, Elder Qian and Elder Bai. Both possessed terrifying peak Dou Ancestor strength, having spent long periods in seclusion cultivating and only appearing in dire circumstances.
"Ah, young people these days really love causing trouble."
Elders Qian and Bai looked helplessly at Yun Tianming and Xun'er, who were still maintaining their Dou Techniques in the sky. They shook their heads in resignation and acted together. Intense spatial fluctuations suddenly emanated from their bodies, causing the surrounding space to distort severely. It wrinkled and twisted like countless folds, far surpassing Su Qian's previous efforts.
As the spatial fluctuations intensified, two eerie and profound black glows slowly appeared on the fingertips of Elders Qian and Bai. Then, with a gentle swipe of their withered fingers, the area ahead seemed to be torn open by an invisible force, creating a massive spatial rift that abruptly manifested.
"Go!"
The weathered voices carried an infinite strength, and a terrifying gust of wind surged into the sky, gradually pushing the swirling vortex of green and blue energies that occupied half the sky into the endless, pitch-black spatial crack.
When the final strand of flame from the Angry Buddha Lotus Flame entered the spatial rift, the scorching temperature in the sky suddenly dropped. The massive light imprint of the Sea Overturning Seal gradually dissipated into nothingness, sinking into the spatial crack.
"Close!"
As Elders Qian and Bai moved their fingers again, the enormous spatial crack began rapidly healing. In less than a minute, the spatial rift was completely repaired, restoring the sky to its smooth, mirror-like surface.
"Thank you, two elders, for your assistance... cough, cough, cough..."
Yun Tianming managed to force a smile on his pale face, extending a grateful gesture with one hand. His other hand hung weakly at his side, and his left half of the body had lost sensation due to the shock from the Sea Overturning Seal, suffering severe injuries to his muscles and bones.
Xun'er on the other side didn't fare any better. She was emitting smoke all over her body, with her fair skin covered in dense burn marks, including her beautiful face, which had extensive burns. She opened her mouth but found her throat also burned, unable to speak.
Xun'er moved her fingers and retrieved a pill from her Spatial Ring, swallowing it down. She activated his Qi Method to adjust her breath. The fierce burns and scars on her face quickly faded away, though faint red marks remained.
Seeing this, Yun Tianming couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart. Xun'er, after all, was still a girl. She prioritized healing the scars on her face, even though the injuries to her internal organs were more severe.
"This time, I didn't lose."
Once her throat recovered, Xun'er spoke in a hoarse voice. Her eyes carried a hint of satisfaction, as if avenging her previous defeat.
"Yes, yes, you won."
Yun Tianming swallowed a pill without showing any false bravado. He quickly refined the medicinal power with his Qi Method, focusing on treating his internal injuries. His left arm and leg were still fractured and unable to move, presenting a rather sorry sight. He folded his Dou Qi Wings and slowly descended from the air, standing on one leg with a precarious appearance.
"Hmph."
Xun'er opened her mouth but suddenly found that winning didn't bring her much joy. Frowning slightly, she looked somewhat resigned, "You really are an unpleasant man!"
Xun'er walked briskly over and reached out to support the collapsing Yun Tianming.
"Next time,"
"I will completely defeat you!"
