254: Chapter 254 Dimensional Reduction Attack! What a formidable Wind Master!

"You've truly given this old man a surprise."

Yao Chen looked toward Wind Venerable's direction, his eyes flashing.

Sure enough, Gu Han and his two wives were standing beside Wind Venerable.

This kid had said he would only look for Wind Venerable after going to the Central Plains, yet he found him ahead of time and even brought him to the Black-Corner Region.

Wind Venerable's movements were usually unpredictable; for Gu Han to be able to contact him was a testament to his ability.

Gu Han: Take a look at the Mystic Armor Heaven-Peering Art.

"Wind Venerable!!!"

Protector Diao of the Hall of Souls' expression changed drastically. Without the slightest hesitation, he tore through space to flee.

"Think you can leave?"

Wind Venerable had already acted as he spoke, clenching his fist toward Protector Diao's direction.

Spatial Strangulation, Wind Venerable edition!

Countless wind blades fell from the hurricane in the sky, and space was partitioned and shattered by a powerful force.

"Ah!" Protector Diao only had time to let out a miserable scream before his body was ground to dust by the formidable spatial power.

Before a four-star Peak Dou Zun with combat power exceeding his level, a Peak Dou Zong expert had absolutely no power to resist.

Prodigies like Gu Han were few and far between after all; otherwise, they wouldn't be called prodigies.

"Not good, run!"

Earth Demon Old Ghost, Old Man Yinshan, Xue Teng, and the others immediately tore through space to escape, even using blood escape techniques that left them severely injured.

If even a Peak Dou Zong Protector from the Hall of Souls couldn't escape, they didn't think they could do any better.

However, upon entering the void, they immediately let out painful screams.

Spatial rifts appeared once more, and the three emerged in a wretched state, all struggling desperately to resist a mass of black and white flames.

"Since you dared to come to my Yunmu City to cause trouble, you should be prepared to perish."

Gu Han took a step forward, a unique mark shining on his brow as Soul Power at the Spirit Realm Perfection level spread out.

Under the control of his Soul Power, the power of the Yin Yang Twin Flames was comparable to the full-strength strike of a high-level Dou Zong.

"The Grand Elder is back!" Many Disciples and members within Yunmu City recognized Gu Han.

"Cloud Mist Sect Grand Elder Gu Han!" The expressions of Earth Demon Old Ghost and the other two changed drastically as they immediately shouted their surrender.

"If one can just surrender and have everything wiped clean after causing trouble in my Yunmu City, that would be far too much of a joke." Gu Han stood with his hands behind his back, having no intention of acting personally.

"Earth Demon Old Ghost, leave him to us!" Cai Die and Colorful Glass stepped out, their auras connecting. Their combined six-star Dou Zong auras pierced the clouds, exerting immense pressure.

"Leave Xue Teng to us." The Gold and Silver Elders knew it was time to earn merit and stepped forward proactively.

Whether it was the brilliant talent Gu Han displayed in all aspects or the top-tier connections of Venerable Yao, they had decided they would rather die on Gu Han's ship than leave it.

"Then this Old Man Yinshan will be handled by us siblings." Ling Ying and Ling Xiao exchanged glances and immediately moved to attack.

Aside from Gu Han and Yao Chen, Yunmu City had dispatched six Dou Zong experts at once, not to mention Wind Venerable standing guard.

"Too strong. Aside from Jia Nan Academy, no faction can challenge Yunmu City." The leaders of various factions were filled with dread.

If Yunmu City intended to purge and annex the Black-Corner Region, where would they go!?

Boom!

Three battlefields were opened in the void.

Gu Han had already used the Yin Yang taiji diagram to lock down space, and with Wind Venerable overseeing things, he wasn't afraid of anyone leaking out.

Before he died, Protector Diao had wanted to crush a spatial Jade Slip to call for reinforcements, but Wind Venerable had casually erased it.

"Old partner, you truly made me search for a long time."

Wind Venerable and Gu Han came before Old Yao together, tears flickering in Wind Venerable's eyes.

"We're at this age already, why are you getting all sentimental and mushy?" Old Yao chuckled and spoke, "Aren't you afraid the juniors will laugh at you?"

"I didn't see anything," Gu Han immediately declared. "If I did see anything, it was an enviable bond of brotherhood and friendship."

"This young friend speaks quite pleasantly." Wind Venerable laughed heartily, then looked at Yao Chen with mock annoyance. "Chen-ge, you don't have a body right now; otherwise, it's hard to say which of us would have red eyes."

"Nonsense, a man bleeds but does not cry." Yao Chen naturally wouldn't admit it and changed the subject. "Speaking of which, old partner, back then you begged me to refine a youth preserving pill for you. Why do you look like this now?"

"Wasn't it because of your disappearance?" A green energy surged from Wind Venerable's body, enveloping him. "With you gone from Starfall Pavilion, our lead among the Four Pavilions wasn't much."

"All these years I've been looking for you, I didn't have much energy to develop Starfall Pavilion. To avoid being looked down upon by outsiders, I changed to a more steady appearance to seem more reliable."

"Now it's fine. As long as you, the famous Venerable Yao, return, even if I turn into a child, no one would dare question anything."

At the Dou Zong level, the body's aging slows down, lifespan increases by sixty years, and with Medicinal Pills, one can live over two hundred years.

Dou Zun Experts have lifespans reaching five hundred years. Even if their bodies are destroyed, as long as the Soul remains, there is a chance for resurrection. A Spirit Realm Soul like Old Yao's could inhabit artifacts or the bodies of Cultivators.

However, eternal youth is still somewhat difficult. But if one takes a youth preserving pill, they can theoretically maintain a relatively young appearance until death.

As the green light dissipated, a handsome middle-aged man holding a folding fan appeared.

"This appearance looks more familiar." Old Yao laughed loudly. "Once I'm resurrected, I'll restore myself to an age similar to yours."

"Speaking of resurrection, I've already heard from young friend Gu Han about the things you need." Wind Venerable opened his fan. "You've already refined the Medicinal Pill yourself just now. As for the body of an expert, I have one here from a four-star Dou Zun."

"You dealt with that arch-rival of yours?" Old Yao immediately guessed.

"Yes, it's him." Wind Venerable smiled. "Back then you said you'd help me deal with him, but I stopped you, saying I wanted to do it myself. You even said not to give people a chance to rise, and in the end, I nearly failed in an easy task."

"Hmph, if I had listened to you back then, this person would probably have been burned to nothing but ash by your Bone Chilling Flame."

"It had to be me. After killing him, I kept the body, just right for your use."

"Fine, you're right, you're right." Old Yao was helpless against Wind Venerable.

No matter how he looked at it, Gu Han felt that Yao Chen and Wind Venerable were full of 'bromance'.

Remaining unmarried for life until finding the missing Han Shanshan... could that be an excuse made for Wind Shiniang?

Probably not; after all, Yao Chen had almost married Hu Jiujiu.

"And as for the Demonic Beast essence blood, the seventh rank is too far below. I happened to capture an Eight-Winged Black Heaven Python alive. What do you think?" Wind Venerable waved his hand gently forward.

Space rippled as a several-hundred-foot-long Eight-Winged Black Heaven Python appeared, its body covered in wounds and in a state of deep unconsciousness. It was large enough to overshadow the entire City Lord's Manor, held up by spatial power.

Hiss!

Su Qian, The Two Elders Qian Bai, Mo Tianxing, and other experts hidden in various places sucked in a breath of cold air.

This Eight-Winged Black Heaven Python was enough to crush all their respective factions, yet it was brought out now, knocked unconscious by Wind Venerable.

Killing an eighth-rank Demonic Beast to startle Dou Zongs?

Talk about using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!
