"." Wei Yang gave Mu Gu an odd look.
"What?" Old Mu Gu frowned, "Why look at this old man like that? Is coming to my Hall of Souls so shameful?"
"Mu Gu, you only mentioned Yao Lao. Don't you know my relationship with Xiao Yan?" Wei Yang asked.
"Heh." Old Mu Gu laughed, but his tone dripped with disdain. "I know. So what? Just a friend."
A friend, is that worth anything?
"You're thinking too small," Wei Yang shook his head. "Of course, from your angle, that's not exactly wrong. But in my eyes, it's different. Besides, he's the only friend I truly recognize."
Wei Yang exhaled lightly, smiled, and didn't bother saying more. His vision was no longer confined to just the Dou Qi Continent.
The Hall of Souls, even the Hun Clan behind it, were nothing more than an early-stage starter-village mini-boss. Compared to them, the outer-realm fiends of the Great Thousand World were the real raid dungeon. His gaze had never been limited to this little Dou Qi Continent.
The Great Thousand World—that was the true stage. To clear those hell-level raid dungeons, he needed strong teammates. If not the well-known Flame Emperor Xiao Yan, should he team up with someone like Hun Miesheng instead?
At that moment—
Roar~
An angry, anxious dragon's cry thundered out.
"Mu Gu, damn humans, hurry and help me!"
That deep, furious roar kept echoing through the void.
On the body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, the purple-black fire suddenly writhed. Then, in a flash, it condensed. In the blink of an eye, a black, eerie flame that made one's heart tremble quietly emerged.
The flame split apart, transforming into tiny black fire-droplets that rained down across the massive body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle~
A harsh burning, boiling sound rose.
As those dark fire-drops fell on the great body of the Three Thousand Burning Flame, the black rune-lines on it actually began to melt and dissolve.
But this method clearly drained immense energy, for the dragon-eyes of the Three Thousand Burning Flame dimmed slightly in that instant.
"All these years, and you still only have these petty tricks. Damn humans, damn Pill Tower!"
The Three Thousand Burning Flame roared in fury, its body thrashing violently like a giant shark caught in a net. The black rune-lines melted bit by bit with its struggle, yet the vast power pervading the space kept repairing them.
It was a fragile, delicate balance between destruction and restoration. Though the effort was huge, excitement flashed in the flame's eyes—it saw the dawn of freedom. For so many years it hadn't been idle. It had long devised a way to break the seal that bound it.
Now it lacked only a little outside force to shatter that delicate, fragile equilibrium. Thus its body twisted madly in the void, destructive aura surging as it roared, "Mu Gu, help me!"
Watching the struggling Three Thousand Burning Flame, Old Mu Gu turned his gaze to Wei Yang and frowned. "So you really are dead-set on opposing us?"
"Can't be helped. Different positions," Wei Yang spread his hands.
"Since you refuse the toast, you'll drink the punishment. My Hall of Souls will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death!"
From his sleeve, a withered hand slowly clenched. Old Mu Gu's voice turned chillingly cold.
"Heh." Wei Yang gave a faint smile, then—
Boom!
A black-flame palm imprint tore through space, carrying terrifying heat and pressure as it smashed straight toward Old Mu Gu's head. The sudden strike made Old Mu Gu's killing intent erupt. "Good, good, good!"
A dried hand slid from his sleeve. With a lift of his palm, Nihility Devouring Flame surged forth, forming a vortex of fire that met the attack head-on.
Palm imprint and vortex collided.
Rumble~
A violent explosion sounded as a circular energy shockwave blasted outward.
Old Mu Gu staggered back step after step, the void beneath his feet fracturing. He retreated more than ten steps before finally steadying himself. Looking up, his eyes locked on Wei Yang in disbelief.
"How is this possible? You only just stepped into Dou Zun!"
Old Mu Gu was shocked.
He knew Wei Yang was strong, but this was too much. Not long ago, Wei Yang had only been a peak Nine-Star Dou Zong. Just a few days back, he'd personally watched him break through to Dou Zun. No matter how strong, that was only a One-Star Dou Zun!
Yet he, Mu Gu, was a peak Four-Star Dou Zun!
The difference between them was more than three full stars. But with just one move, he had been forced back more than ten steps?
Lowering his head, Old Mu Gu looked at his own arm, trembling slightly from numbness, and fell silent. Wei Yang, on the other hand, grinned. "Threaten me? A fate worse than death? I was only in a good mood, so I chatted with you a bit. And you thought you actually stood a chance?"
"In my eyes, you were a dead man long ago!"
Shua!
As he spoke, Wei Yang leapt forward, then dropped down with a palm strike.
Black Sun Burning Heaven Palm!
Black flame surged wildly in his palm, condensing into a fist-sized black sun. That black sun released an incredibly terrifying aura of destruction, the surrounding space instantly turning to nothingness.
In the next breath, the black sun expanded against the wind, swelling rapidly as it pressed down toward Old Mu Gu. Old Mu Gu looked up, pupils contracting.
This move!
At that moment, he even caught a whiff of death.
"Nihility Devouring Sky!"
A thunderous shout burst from Old Mu Gu's mouth.
At once, endless eerie black flames erupted from his body and spread outward. In a blink, those strange black flames formed a massive vortex of black fire.
Wuuu~
The black flame vortex spun madly, shredding the void, like a gigantic black maw aiming to swallow the falling black sun whole.
"What a huge appetite. Then I'll let you swallow it!"
Seeing this, Wei Yang laughed, pressing both palms down on the black sun with force.
Buzz buzz buzz~
The black sun quivered faintly, its aura of destruction surging like a nuclear bomb on the verge of detonation.
Wuuu~
The enormous black flame vortex spun frantically as it surged upward to meet it. And then—
With a single gulp, it swallowed the entire descending black sun.
Below—
Old Mu Gu held up both hands. His face was slightly pale, yet he gave a weird laugh. "Jie jie jie, Black Sun Burning Heaven Flame, what arrogance! Before my Nihility Devouring Flame, it's nothing but food to replenish energy. Nihility Devouring Flame, nothing it cannot devour!"
"Is that so?" Wei Yang's lips curved. With a single step he left streaks of afterimages, retreating swiftly. At the same time, he softly exhaled a word: "Explode!"
As the word fell, the void seemed to fall silent for an instant.
Only the massive black flame vortex remained, quietly suspended as it spun violently. Then, Old Mu Gu watched in shock as that flame vortex began to swell outward, bit by bit. Inside, something seemed to bloom, like an impending explosion.
"Not good!" Old Mu Gu's face went pale. Every hair on his body stood on end. He whipped around and fled madly.
Hum~
The black flame vortex shuddered violently, then stopped spinning altogether. In the next breath, it collapsed. Immediately after, endless blinding black light pierced out from within.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Countless black beams erupted, tearing through the void, almost instantly flooding the entire space of nothingness.
In the horrified eyes of all present, wherever the black beams passed, space itself seemed to crumble completely, as if it never existed.
Those black beams carried a scorching aura of destruction, moving both slow and impossibly fast as they swept across.
"Not good, damn, this move again!"
In the distance, Xiao Yan's heart jolted. He instantly flickered aside, hiding behind the golden puppet and crouching low.
Xian'er too struck the Hall of Souls Elder with a single palm, then quickly turned her back to the black beams. With a wave of her jade hand, a brown tornado wrapped around her entire body. The rest, who reacted a bit slower—
"Ah~ my eyes!"
Agonized screams rang out one after another.
