863. Heavenly Steps Emerge
Tang Qiying had never encountered Heaven-Rank combat techniques before. Although the Tianluan Clan possessed Heaven-Rank combat techniques, they were still unsuitable for him. However, Huo Xuan, as a prodigy descendant of the Yan Clan, naturally had no shortage of them.
Faced with Xiao Yan's Heaven-Rank Battle Technique, his original plan was simple: a clash of Heaven-Rank Battle Techniques!
This was exactly the scene Tang Qiying wanted to see: to crush Xiao Yan's last reliance with absolute power.
Although Xiao Yan's Heavenly Rank Dou Technique is also very strong, in terms of quality, it is definitely inferior to the Heavenly Rank Dou Technique of the Yan Clan, which is selected from the best of the best. Not to mention, Tang Qiying's own strength is even above Xiao Yan's. Even if the quality of the Dou Techniques are equal, he will still have the upper hand!
"Then let's see if the Flame Clan's Heaven-Rank Battle Technique can kill you directly!" Tang Qiying's eyes were filled with increasingly fierce malice, and the loss of control of the rhythm had made him consider killing Xiao Yan.
After all, killing Xiao Yan was the most important thing for him when he came to the Heavenly Tomb; everything else had to take a backseat to this.
The Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame erupted in full force, making space as fragile as paper before it, piercing through it silently. The faint black Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame grew increasingly powerful, and with Tang Qiying's reckless injection of his battle qi, this sixth-ranked strange flame on the Strange Flame Ranking finally revealed its full brilliance.
The most crucial ability of this flame is not its high temperature, but its unparalleled ability to break through everything.
Fire-attribute battle qi began to gather simultaneously on Xiao Yan and Tang Qiying, making them resemble two blazing suns facing each other.
Tang Qiying's hand gestures kept changing, and three runes flashed out from his body in succession, forming his battle formation.
As the three runes worked together, the speed of the battle aura gathered around him also increased rapidly, frantically gathering the energy of heaven and earth in an almost predatory manner. The speed of the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flames continued to increase, and then continuously poured into the ever-expanding black flames around him.
The Dou Qi at the Dou Sheng level condensed much faster than Xiao Yan's, and with the assistance of the formation, Tang Qiying's strange fire actually completed its accumulation of power first.
"Xiao Yan, keep it up! The more you struggle, the more interesting it will be for me!" Tang Qiying said, pretending to be kind as she looked at Xiao Yan, who was still gathering his strength.
Xiao Yan ignored him, focusing solely on the purplish-red flame lotus in his palm.
The Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame in Tang Qiying's hand had been fully unleashed. An energy dragon composed entirely of pure annihilation fire gradually took shape, coiling around Tang Qiying's right arm with its head held high, emanating a terrifying aura of destruction.
The coiled black dragon let out a silent roar and suddenly transformed into a palm print phantom burning with raging black flames!
That illusory palm strike carried an awe-inspiring, heaven-like power. As black flames swirled around it, rings of fiery light appeared in the palm, each ring containing destructive force, its edges slicing through space. Each ring of fire could easily cripple a half-saint level expert, and over time, the fiery rings became so numerous they were almost invisible.
It goes without saying that this palm strike would be absolutely earth-shattering.
Black flames swirled around, emanating a destructive inner force. The Eight Desolate Destruction Flames within his palm surged and rolled, seemingly transforming into a black sun.
"Die!"
Then, Tang Qiying unleashed a powerful palm strike, instantly tearing through the sky with its energy light.
Intermediate Heavenly Rank, Blazing Sun Divine Light Palm!
This fighting technique was originally a mid-level Heaven-rank fighting technique of the Yan Clan, and it was also the fighting technique that Huo Xuan chose that best suited him. With the drive of the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame and Huo Xuan's many years of cultivation after advancing to the Dou Zun level, its power has surpassed the power released by many elders.
Previously, when Tang Qiying unleashed his fighting skills to fight against Xiao Yan and the other three, he was somewhat overwhelmed. However, now, facing Xiao Yan alone, he was absolutely confident that he could defeat him!
As Tang Qiying unleashed his palm strike, the core of fire in Xiao Yan's hand finally had enough battle qi energy. The sky to Xiao Yan's side had completely transformed into a sky swirling with flames, and the fiery lava flowed down like ocean waves, relentlessly and unreasonably layering towards Tang Qiying's location.
"Low-level Celestial Rank, Ninth Level of Crimson Tide!"
This time, Xiao Yan dared not hold back at all, and the power of the Crimson Tide Ninth Level was even greater than when he faced Ling Fengzhui.
Tang Qiying's palm strike was advancing at an excessively fast speed; those fiery halos could quickly shatter the crimson waves released by Xiao Yan. The first five levels could only intercept the attack for a single breath.
Each wave of fire eventually shattered as if it had crashed into a reef, turning into a sky full of fiery streams that scattered in all directions.
When the azure lotus flame had only been blocked for two breaths, Xiao Yan's face had already turned pale.
However, Xiao Yan's eyes remained unwavering, and the current situation did not allow him to waver. If he lost his composure in this level of intense battle, defeat would not be far off.
Xiao Yan also used all his strength to activate his Burning Technique and Devouring Power to absorb Dou Qi. The consumption brought by the Heaven-rank Dou Technique was really considerable. Ordinary half-saint powerhouses simply could not withstand it. Even Xiao Yan, who was going all out after the fierce battle, was also greatly exhausted. However, Xiao Yan still needed to do something important later.
As Tang Qiying broke through to the seventh and eighth levels with each palm strike, it wasn't without its costs. More than half of his Annihilation Fire Rings had been exhausted, and his palm strike, which resembled a black sun, began to show some instability.
As they moved forward, the number of black fire rings at the center of the palm print decreased continuously. Finally, the light imprint met the last crimson wave, which was the strongest part of Xiao Yan's attack.
Crimson flames against black flames!
The sixth-ranked player on the Strange Flame Ranking versus the eighth-ranked player on the Strange Flame Ranking!
The earth-shattering roar seemed to collapse the entire third level of the Heavenly Tomb. A huge energy sphere with a diameter of over a thousand feet suddenly expanded at the center of the collision, with two destructive energies, blood red and deep black, frantically devouring and annihilating each other.
The devastating shockwave swept out in a ring, turning all protruding rocks and slopes into dust. The ground was forcibly lowered by tens of meters, forming a huge circular crater.
Even though the space was as stable as the Heavenly Tomb, it was still severely damaged at this moment. Xiao Yan and Tang Qiying were staring intently at the core of the collision. Under these circumstances, neither of them wanted to retreat, nor could either of them retreat.
Ultimately, through their connection with their natal flames, the two learned the result of their collision almost simultaneously: a draw, with neither gaining the upper hand.
Both of their attacks were neutralized in the previous clash, but they had slightly different attitudes toward the outcome.
"Damn it, he actually stopped us?" Tang Qiying gritted her teeth and said fiercely.
