Xiao Yan furrowed his brows tightly. The white light that had just emanated from Nan Yanran might have seemed like the effect of a medial pill, Secret Teique, or something simir in the eyes of others. However, with his powerful Spiritual Strength enhang his perceptioiced something distinctly different about it.

  'Gate of Life ah, Gate of Life ah... life ah. Could there really be such ces in this world? This seems too far-fetched.' Xiao Ya as if a stampede of alpacas was galloping through his mind at this moment. If it truly was such a ce, he would regret the choice he made three years ago to the point of his iiurning green.

  In no time, the injuries on Nan Yanran's body healed pletely at an astonishing speed that shocked even Xiao Yan.

  "If you think you defeat me by trading injuries, then your defeat is iable," Nan Yanran raised her head to look at Xiao Yan h in the air and said with a serious look in her eyes.

  Xiao Yan's brows knitted as he asked, "That power of yours, did you obtain it from the Gate of Life ah?"

  As if she had anticipated his i in this power, Nan Yanran smiled and replied, "Want to know? Defeat me, and I'll tell you."

  Xiao Yan's expression instantly ged, a dangerous glint fshing in his eyes as he said in a deep voice, "Provoking my fighting spirit is a very dangerous thing to do."

  "The life ah be dictated by the heavens."

  The moment her voice fell, powerful Dou Qi and sharp sword energies burst forth from the massive bluestone square, leaving behind clear, deep gashes on the surrounding solid stone sbs.

  Everyoheir breath, their gazes following the two indistinct figures as they flickered and shifted. The increasingly intense aed battle made many people's hearts leap into their throats as they watched the fierbat unfold.

  No one present could predict how the battle would develop.

  Those who had inally thought Xiao Yan would win were dumbfouhey hadn't expected that Nan Yanran had actually obtained Yun Po Tian's iance from the Gate of Life ah!

  Those who believed that such a Nan Yanran would surely win were also stuhey hadn't imagihat an alchemist like Xiao Yan could be so powerful, utilizing the Heavenly Fme and Spiritual Strength to su exquisite degree that Nan Yanran's wind-attribute attacks were repeatedly thwarted.

  In their view, an alchemist like Xiao Yan should have beeed with a single blow. However, he actually possessed terrifying physical strength. Relying oremely fierce close-bat abilities and the aerial superiority granted by his Eagle Wings, his offensive even showed signs of suppressing Nan Yanran. This left those Misty Cloud Sect disciples whinally thought victory was in the bag utterly speechless.

  The attacks betweewo in the arena grew increasingly fierd perilous. Xiao Yan, who had initially inteo just toy with Nan Yanran, began to get serious, and his attacks became more and more lethal.

  When Nan Yanran unleashed several Xuan Css Dou Teiques in successiohey were all tered by Xiao Yan using his Heavenly Fme, the faces of the Misty Cloud Sect elders sitting ooform finally began to show unease.

  The Dou Teiques Nan Yanran had employed beloo the advanced and difficult-to-cultivate types within the Misty Cloud Sect, and their power was not small either.

  With Nan Yanran's strength, even if her oppo was a high-star Dou Spirit, it shouldn't have been possible to block these Dou Teiques so effortlessly.

  "Yanran has obtaihe iance of a Dou Vee, yet she is actually falling into a disadvantage!" Yun Leng was utterly shocked in his heart.

  Yun Po Tian was the founder of the Misty Cloud Sed ae Dou Vee! Yun Leng believed that with the iance of a Dou Vee, the Misty Cloud Sect would surely unify the entire North-Western Region, perhaps even marto the tral Pins to bee a top fa. He even thought Nan Yanran had the potential to bee a Dou Vee herself!

  Yet now, she was locked in a stalemate with Xiao Yan!

  The two figures fshing and interweaving cshed once more before retreating. Apanied by the sound of energy explosions, both were bsted back over a dozeers.

  When the dust settled, the figures of Xiao Yan and Nan Yanran finally appeared clearly in everyone's sight. The crowd was stunned upon seeing their appearances.

  Xiao Yan's luxurious robe was now tattered and in shreds. Crisscrossing sword wounds marked his body, and many of the deep gashes had already scabbed over. Evidently, he was not pletely dominant in the previous near-frenzied close bat against Nan Yanran's sword teiques.

  Oher hand, Nan Yanran was also in a slightly disheveled state. Her inally moon-white robe now had many scorched areas. Quite a few spots on her body had been burned until the skin split and flesh was exposed. On her lower abdomen, a distinct fme-fist imprint was clearly visible. Eveied-up hair had been singed a little.

  Xiao Yan had shown no mercy whatsoever, having unleashed his full firepower!

  Nan Yanran's eyes sharpened. She tore off a piece of cloth from the hem of her robe with a ripping sound aied her loose hair into a single ponytail.

  "Nan Yanran is about to use her ultimate move!" Hai Bodong's brows furrowed as he noticed the ge in her aura.

  In the ter of the square, Nan Yanran suddenly opened her eyes. Her robe began to flutter despite the absence of wind, and as her bck hair dahe wind-attribute energy around her body began te like boiling water.

  The Misty Cloud Sect was situated above the clouds, where wind-attribute energy was naturally the most abundant. Circles of pale , substantial ripples tinuously spread out from her body.

  The bck longsword slowly rose, pointing at Xiao Yan in the sky. The sword trembled slightly, and suddenly, the sunlight in the sky verged toward the bde. In just an instant, the longsword's light intensified dramatically, being a dazzling radiahat resembled a sed sun.

  "Xiao Ya's decide the victor."

  Xiao Yan merely smiled faintly and said, "Let's see what you've got then."

  He khat Nan Yanran was about to use a Di Css Dou Teique when he saw the surrounding world energy surging wildly. Jia Xing Tian and Hai Bodong had told him that the Misty Cloud Sect possessed a powerful ultimate move called the 'Wind's Peak Sword Teique.' It was a genuine Di Css Dou Teique and the reason why all the surrounding empires feared the Misty Cloud Sect.

  However, Xiao Yan was not afraid. While others didn't possess Di Css Dou Teiques, he did.

  "Wind's Peak: Dazzling Su!"

  With a clear shout, the terrifying energy fluctuations finally erupted. A sharp sword energy shot toward Xiao Yan, and uhe pressure of that sharp sword energy, even the solid ground cracked, f fissures that exteo the end of the square.

  "Heavens! Yanran has actually cultivated Dazzling Suo minor mastery!" Ge Ye excimed in shock as he watched from the sidelines

  "The me show you something as well."

  "Fme Splitting Tsunami!"

  The Heavy Xuan Ruler suddenly poioward Nan Yanran, whose aura was as sharp as a sword. As Xiao Yan's clear voice rang out, the world energy within the arena instantly became extremely turbulent. A terrifying fire-attribute energy that caused even the expressions of the elders in the judges' seats ae Dou Emperors like Yun Yun to ge drastically erupted at this moment.

  "He's stirring the world's energy! Is this a Di Css Dou Teique?!!"

  "Moreover, these fluctuations seem even more advahan Dazzling Su!!"

  Wind's Peak had two forms. The first form, Dazzling Su, could barely be sidered Di Css and wasn't even ranked as a low Di Css Dou Teique. The sed form, Killer Meteorite, was the true Di Css Dou Teique. So naturally, Dazzling Su was no mate Splitting Tsunami.
