MM Racing 327. A Paranoid Genius
327. A Paranoid Genius
Xiao Yan forcibly used the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations again. Although his strength surged, he knew that the burden on his body was also more severe than ever before! If it weren't for the good fortune in the mountain stream that alleviated his weakened soul, allowed him to successfully cultivate his Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body again, and fused with the Heart Blood Clay Puppet to transfer his injuries, Xiao Yan would have been the first to succumb to the impact of the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations on his body! The feeling of using the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations twice was also completely different. The original powerful feeling had now turned into a faint stinging pain, all of which were signs that he absolutely could not fight for long.
"We must finish this quickly!" Xiao Yan's Xuan Heavy Ruler also turned purplish-red, and his Dou Qi began to surge into the Xuan Heavy Ruler. A purplish-red energy blade slashed out from Xiao Yan's hand!
Flames divide and devour waves!
Seeing Xiao Yan's performance, which had already broken through to the Dou Zun level, Tang Qiying narrowed his eyes. Just before the Flame Dividing Wave Ruler was about to devour him, flames also flashed from Tang Qiying's body.
The strange fire energy atop the Flame Devouring Wave Ruler exploded in front of Tang Qiying, flames shooting skyward. However, the dissipating energy was ultimately blocked by an invisible barrier, which was also the effect of the mountain-encircling formation that Tang Qiying had set up from the beginning. At this moment, Xiao Yan, while trying to leave this area, was also paying attention to Tang Qiying, and then a familiar feeling came over him.
The violent flames and battle qi were also churning within the area where Tang Qiying was located, and Tang Qiying's aura was also rising continuously. He then broke through the limit of the Dou Zong level and reached the Dou Zun level!
Xiao Yan's black pupils suddenly contracted, because he realized that the familiar aura was none other than the secret technique he was using—the Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire!
"Xiao Yan, you don't naively think you're the only one who knows the Three Transformations of Heavenly Flame, do you?"
Tang Qiying slowly emerged from the flames, three flames of different colors swirling and rising in his right palm: one shaped like a whale, the other like an eagle's cry, and the other like a lion's might, each with distinct characteristics. Xiao Yan immediately recognized them as three beastly flames of considerable power, and it was these three beastly flames in his hand that Tang Qiying had just used to activate the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations!
Then, the three-colored flames transformed into three ferocious demonic beasts that charged towards Xiao Yan. These demonic beasts, which were originally the prototypes of the Strange Flame, surged forth together with tremendous force! However, what they had to face was the absolute overlord among flames: the Strange Flame!
The crimson Lotus Heart Flame burst forth from Xiao Yan's body. The three beast flames were all momentarily stunned upon the appearance of the Lotus Heart Flame. The flames, which had no intelligence, seemed to be half-frightened and were ruthlessly suppressed by the Lotus Heart Flame!
However, Tang Qiying's attack did not stop there. The sound of a phoenix's cry rang out, and the blue battle qi behind Tang Qiying gathered and condensed. The originally swift wind attribute battle qi also became frenzied after condensation. There was also a lot of red mixed in the wind attribute battle qi. Tang Qiying's punch was aimed directly at Xiao Yan!
This is a fighting technique created by Mu Xinyuan himself, Gale Tremor! In Mu Xinyuan's hands, it is extremely direct and brutal. Even when Tang Qiying uses it now, it has the demeanor of a grandmaster!
Tang Qiying arrived quickly, and Xiao Yan's reaction was equally swift, unleashing a Sea-Turning Seal! The clash was devoid of any fancy flourishes; after a fierce exchange of Dou Qi, both were sent flying backward, with Xiao Yan faring much worse than Tang Qiying! Although he had gained the upper hand, Tang Qiying wasn't entirely satisfied, mainly because Mu Xinyuan's direct, hard-hitting fighting style didn't suit his fighting style! However, he had also intended to test his Dou Qi, and the result was quite good. Although he was using three kinds of beast fire, his performance was in no way inferior to Xiao Yan's, who was using three different strange fires to activate the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations!
During the exchange just now, Xiao Yan had already realized that Tang Qiying had definitely reached a level of strength comparable to a Dou Zun expert! And the effect was obvious, undoubtedly due to the Three Transformations of Heavenly Flame.
"How can someone who isn't fire-attribute be able to activate the Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire?" Xiao Yan asked in surprise.
Although secret techniques generally do not require a specific type of battle qi, the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations relies on the stimulation of flames. While this is manageable for those with fire-attribute battle qi, it would be fatal for others facing a powerful attack from fire-attribute battle qi.
However, Tang Qiying's eyes revealed a satisfied expression: "I have already mastered the Three Transformations of Heavenly Fire. Driven by a special formation, I can still use it even if I have wind-attribute battle qi!"
Looking at the rising three-colored flames in his hand, Tang Qiying's eyes were filled with pride: "This is the difference between me and my teacher. He only sought stability, not knowing that to surpass predecessors in the art of formations, one must try what predecessors dared not do or even think. Facts have proven that I made the right bet! I succeeded!"
Although Xiao Yan hadn't specifically studied formations, he knew the difficulty Tang Qiying had described, and couldn't help but feel sorry for the latter's audacity and genius. With Tang Qiying's talent, if he had focused and dedicated himself, his future achievements would have been limitless. Unfortunately, because of his background, Tang Qiying went to extremes, and whoever knew what he was doing now would absolutely despise him!
"Because I was worried that the people of Burning Flame Valley would discover it, I have never revealed this secret technique in public. Xiao Yan, today you will be the first one to die!"
Tang Qiying transformed into a streak of azure light once more and attacked. Now, thanks to the secret technique that had drastically increased his strength, Tang Qiying was able to suppress Xiao Yan in every way, his short blade constantly leaving wounds on Xiao Yan's body. Blood flowed continuously from Xiao Yan's body. Having undergone multiple enhancements, Xiao Yan's body was, in many ways, stronger than many magical beasts. Similarly, Xiao Yan's blood-regenerating ability was beyond the range of normal humans, so this bleeding wouldn't cause any problems in the short term.
Tang Qiying's short blade continued to dance. Watching Xiao Yan struggle desperately, he felt extremely satisfied. Being able to torture and kill Xiao Yan was also a powerful counterattack against all those in the Tianluan Clan who had high hopes for Xiao Yan!
"Old men, you'll learn how wrong your decision was! But someone has to tell them that woman is still going to release... Where is she?!" Tang Qiying suddenly realized that Little Fairy Doctor, who should have been standing nearby, had disappeared!
At this moment, Xiao Yan, who had been brutally murdered, stepped forward and allowed Tang Qiying's twin blades to pierce through his body, while he also firmly restrained Tang Qiying.
"Not good!" Tang Qiying also realized that Xiao Yan and the other two must have a backup plan after paying such a high price!
