578: Chapter 578 Battle against the Heavenly Flame Venerable, Purgatory Soul Suppressing Technique

The roar of the fire wolf shook the sky, its sharp claws flashing with a cold light as they sliced through space.

The scorching flames caused the temperature to soar, making the air extremely dry.

The hideous wolf head opened its bloody maw and bit down fiercely toward the matchless blade glow; in that instant, it seemed as if even the sky would be swallowed.

Buzz!

The blade glow was domineering to the extreme, severing the space. Hun Tiandi's heavy blade strike rose against the sky, distorting intensely in mid-air as the two extreme forces triggered a destructive power.

It impacted the surroundings in all directions, the energy fluctuations making it feel as if the entire Starfall Pavilion was trembling.

When two energies with opposite Dou Qi attributes collided, they were as incompatible as fire and water. This terrifying confrontation had already reached the level of a peak Dou Zun's strength.

"How is this possible? A mere Six-Star Dou Zong actually blocked the attack of Venerable Skyfire?"

"No, before the second wave of engagement, Hun Tiandi's aura surged. He must have used some kind of secret technique."

"What secret technique? To allow a Six-Star Dou Zong to fight a Nine-Star Dou Zun without being at a disadvantage..."

The many elders of the Starfall Pavilion watched this battle, and countless cries of surprise soon rang out...

Even the Burning Flame Valley's Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, a top-tier secret technique, could not provide such a boost.

"Your strength..." Venerable Skyfire exclaimed.

Looking at Hun Tiandi, whose aura was rampaging and who had only retreated a few steps after the clash, a great wave of shock rose in his heart.

"Jie jie jie, is this all the world-renowned Venerable Skyfire is capable of?" Hun Tiandi's lips curled into a strange smile as he provoked him aggressively.

"Humph, kid, such extreme provocation will bring consequences you cannot bear!"

Venerable Skyfire was a Nine-Star Dou Zun; when had he ever been so provoked by a young brat? His anger overcame his reason.

"Come then, use your strength to shock me!"

Hun Tiandi pointed his blade at Venerable Skyfire, his battle intent surging to the heavens. The long blade buzzed, as if sensing its master's fighting spirit and feeling excited for the battle.

"Since you seek death, don't blame this venerable one for being ruthless!"

Venerable Skyfire's expression turned cold, the anger in his heart like a flame burning through the nine heavens.

With a tap of his toe, the space fluctuated slightly, and he disappeared from the spot.

Hun Tiandi remained as motionless as a mountain, his long blade pointed diagonally. He actually slowly closed his eyes, and his soul power poured out, weaving a soul net within a hundred-zhang radius.

The Dou Qi within his body circulated to the extreme, spreading to every part of his being, ready to erupt into a terrifying attack at any moment.

"This kid hasn't been scared silly, has he?" Pavilion Master You Quan said smugly.

Mu Qingluan's brows furrowed slightly. She did not share Pavilion Master You Quan's sentiment; ever since she had begun her cultivation, Hun Tiandi was the most ruthless person she had encountered, both in schemes and methods.

Buzz!

The space on the left fluctuated slightly, and an aged palm reached out, Dou Qi flowing around it.

The angle was extremely tricky. The moment he sensed it, Hun Tiandi's body reacted instinctively, and he flipped his hand to thrust the blade directly toward it.

Clang!

The collision of palm and blade edge actually produced a crisp metallic sound. The massive rebound force caused his figure to stagger.

While his body was retreating and before he could steady himself...

The space behind him warped again, and an illusory figure emerged, striking a palm toward Hun Tiandi's back.

Ang!

Hun Tiandi sensed the energy behind him, and a flash of ferocity appeared in his eyes. A high-pitched dragon roar rang out from his physical body, and a massive dragon shadow coiled around his back.

A ferocious blood-qi power erupted, like a sun bursting with brilliant light.

The surging dragon pressure possessed the power to seize souls.

Puchi!

Hun Tiandi could no longer suppress it; he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face suddenly turning pale.

"Your Majesty..." Liu Ling shouted urgently.

He flipped his hand and threw out a purple flame thunder bead. Purple lightning poured out, causing the illusory figure's expression to change drastically as it disappeared from the spot.

"Heavenly Realm Perfection, Soul Power!"

Hun Tiandi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a look of surprise flickering in the depths of his eyes.

Once soul power reaches the Heavenly Realm level, the originally illusory and transparent soul power gradually becomes solid.

Someone like Venerable Skyfire, who could cultivate their soul power to the Heavenly Realm, could summon it to fight alongside their true self.

They could even share thoughts and intentions.

"Not bad, finally someone is worthy of me using the demonic zither!" Hun Tiandi put away his long blade and, with a casual wave of his hand, the nether demonic zither appeared in his grasp.

The eerie demonic zither appeared, and the aura of myriad desires in the world was slowly drawn toward it.

"Very well, this venerable one originally intended to spare your life, but since you don't know what's good for you, you can only be destroyed!" Venerable Skyfire said harshly.

"Five Round Li Fire Method, Burning the Heavens and Boiling the Seas!"

He summoned the five clusters of Beast Fire from within his body, which rotated around him. His hands began to form seals, and the Beast Fires formed five flaming beast shapes.

Red Wolf, Silver Leopard, Blue Lion, Black Tiger, and Golden Flood Dragon.

Awoo... Roar...

Venerable Skyfire intended to kill Hun Tiandi, so he directly performed the highest stage of the Five Round Li Fire Method.

Five-colored fire spirits, five beasts gathered together, Five Round Li Fire, Burning the Heavens and Boiling the Seas.

They formed a five-Beast Fire wheel that rotated slowly, a black vortex appearing in its center, strangling and devouring everything.

With a point of his finger, the five-colored fire wheel moved to envelop Hun Tiandi.

Hun Tiandi's deep eyes stared at the five-colored light wheel. The power of this fire wheel had reached the level of an Earth Rank High Level Dou Technique.

Rumor has it that if four of the five beasts were condensed from Heavenly Flames...

The power of this Dou Technique would be comparable to a Heaven Rank Dou Skill!

Ding dong...

At this time, Hun Tiandi's fingers manipulated the demonic zither. The profound notes were like mountain streams and flowing water, causing one to become immersed in them.

Suddenly, the zither's sound changed, activating the Purgatory Soul-Suppressing. Endless nether energy surged from the ground, blotting out the sun.

The rapid zither notes wove together a Purgatory Illusion.

It pulled Venerable Skyfire into it. He looked around vigilantly, and scenes of his past experiences began to appear before his eyes.

Hun Tiandi had activated the Purgatory Soul-Suppressing Art, intending to completely kill him through the regrets in Venerable Skyfire's heart!

Since he had stepped into cultivation, the life and death, hardships, and regrets he had experienced were all presented before him.

It connected to his heart, to his deepest buried memories.

Once, there was a woman whose eyes were full of tenderness as she looked at a Young man in white. He had a tall stature and a handsome face, brimming with high spirits.

"Are you really leaving?" The young woman asked with tears in her eyes, clutching the sleeve of the Young man in white.

"Wait for me. Once I ascend to the legendary Dou Di, I will take you with me!" The Young man in white stepped out resolutely, his figure disappearing from sight.

"Ziyan, is it you?" Sinking into the illusion, the memories in Venerable Skyfire's mind were like a tide, impacting his mental state.

The zither's sound invaded the regrets of his mind.

There were also scenes of his death in the underground magma world of Jia Nan Academy while refining the Fallen Heart Flame.

"What's going on? There's something wrong with this zither sound..."

"Why isn't Venerable Skyfire moving..."

The people of the Starfall Pavilion were discussing among themselves, watching as Venerable Skyfire, who had been attacking, fell into silence.

They knew this zither sound was somewhat strange.

The bad premonition in Mu Qingluan's heart was constantly coming true; she had expected something like this before the battle.

Pavilion Master You Quan's face also darkened. With Venerable Skyfire's strength, he actually couldn't achieve an overwhelming suppression.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Liu Ling, Wang Ku, Yun Xiao, and even Lan Xi, whom they had just met...

All had their eyes wide open. For the three of them, it was a mixture of awe and fanaticism. Just how many trump cards did His Majesty still have?

"Qing Yue's young master is so strong..." Lan Xi said in shock.

Liu Ling had seen His Majesty use a red vortex passage to heavily injure a Half-Saint expert.

And Wang Ku had also witnessed the terror of the Samsara Passage.

To be able to submit to Hun Tiandi and be branded with the Blood Spirit Mark.
