861. Black Flame Ineffective
Tang Qiying slowly extended three slender, slightly pale fingers, a cruel smile on his face like a cat playing with a mouse: "Black Flame, Strange Fire Lotus, Heaven-Rank Battle Technique."
"You still have three trump cards up your sleeve, but I wonder which one you'll use first?"
"But your feigned composure is really annoying!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan felt a chill run down his spine. Tang Qiying's words were absolutely accurate!
These last three were indeed Xiao Yan's trump cards, but now that Tang Qiying had directly exposed them, unprecedented pressure was mounting on Xiao Yan. He had already been targeted at every turn in today's battle, and it seemed Tang Qiying was indeed adept at utilizing his advantages, even figuring out his methods after his resurrection.
After all, the fact that Tang Qiying dared to say that shows that he had already made preparations. An opponent who is always targeting you is more dangerous than a powerful opponent.
However, the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released! Even knowing that Tang Qiying was on guard, Xiao Yan had to use this trump card! Otherwise, faced with an absolute difference in strength, he would completely lose even the last hope of turning the tide.
A fierce glint flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, and without the slightest hesitation, he raised his right hand abruptly, palm facing upward, fingers spread wide. In an instant, a profound darkness, seemingly capable of devouring all light, surged forth from his palm. The darkness rapidly expanded, eventually condensing into a human-faced flame resembling Xiao Yan's, yet brimming with greed and violence—the very same sub-flame of the Void Devouring Flame!
The newly appeared black flame had a large mouth and looked like it hadn't eaten in a long time.
Looking at Hei Yan's current state, Xiao Yan always felt somewhat awkward and strange, even though Hei Yan had become unusually obedient to him after his resurrection. However, compared to Tang Qiying, his dislike for Hei Yan was almost negligible.
Xiao Yan pointed at Tang Qiying, giving Hei Yan a very simple command: "Go!"
Having received Xiao Yan's order, the last trace of restraint that had been suppressing the Black Flame vanished completely, transforming into a silent, pitch-black lightning bolt. The Black Flame opened its massive maw and roared towards Tang Qiying!
Where the black flames passed, a vacuum energy trajectory appeared.
Seeing the black flames rushing towards him, Tang Qiying's smile grew even wider, his eyes showing no panic, only a disdainful "I knew it" attitude.
He had already learned about the black flames from the Soul Clan and had made preparations to counter them. Tang Qiying stomped heavily on the void with his right foot, and a rune array instantly appeared. He had set it up during a break in his fight with Xiao Yan. As the one with the advantage, he was naturally able to gain many benefits.
Then, Tang Qiying slashed his wrist with his right hand, creating a deep, bone-revealing wound that gushed out thick, crimson blood, which, guided by Tang Qiying's fighting spirit, dripped into the rune array.
hum-
The rune array that had absorbed the essence of the Dou Sheng's blood instantly shone brightly.
At this moment, the black flame had arrived in front of Tang Qiying, opening its huge mouth to devour the person in front of it. Suddenly, the rune array emitted a bright bloody light, and a foul, bloody smell spread out, enveloping the black flame completely.
The black flames were illuminated by the blood-red light, and their movements quickly slowed down. Although the black flames had intelligence and wanted to struggle, their movements slowed down and they could hardly put up any decent resistance.
"Black Flame, capture complete!" Tang Qiying said with ill intent.
Then, thin lines of blood rapidly spread from the runes at an astonishing speed, eventually transforming into tiny spikes that pierced through the black flames. The stench, accompanied by the terrifying blood-red light, surprisingly blended in with the trapped black flames.
The face of Xiao Yan, which was transformed from black flames, was extremely angry at this moment. It wanted to devour the surrounding blood lines clean, but those blood lines quickly became ethereal and dispersed in the face of black flames' devouring. They would reappear when black flames tried to make other moves, thus imprisoning black flames in the center and preventing them from moving.
No matter how much the black flames struggled, the formation specifically prepared for them was designed to imprison them firmly in the center, preventing them from moving.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan's expression also turned very ugly. He was shocked to see that another of his important trump cards had been so easily countered by Tang Qiying.
"As expected, the Soul Clan has a way to deal with the Black Flame." Although this was expected, it still made Xiao Yan feel even heavier.
The black flame was initially obtained from Elder Mu Gu, whose Soul Palace was even a subordinate force of the Soul Clan. It was already somewhat strange that such a useful flame as the Void Devouring Flame appeared in Mu Gu's hands; it was impossible for the Soul Clan not to have a way to deal with the black flame. Now, it's not surprising that Tang Qiying obtained a method to deal with the black flame from the Soul Clan. However, by doing so, Xiao Yan has indeed lost another trump card.
Xiao Yan swiftly swung the Xuan Heavy Ruler, intending to pierce the runes binding the black flames. However, before he could even make a move, Tang Qiying had already appeared before him—a clear advantage of a Dou Sheng's superior speed!
Two daggers, gleaming with a chilling light, silently sliced through space like venomous snakes spitting their tongues, leaving two deep, bone-revealing bloodstains in front of Xiao Yan once again. Xiao Yan's strange fire was blocked by the protection formed by the Eight Desolate Annihilation Flame and could not break through.
"You're all struggling to take care of yourselves, so worry about yourselves first!"
The difference in strength was on full display at this moment!
Not to mention, Tang Qiying also has a very comprehensive set of countermeasures.
As Xiao Yan was repelled, he saw that his Black Flame was truly helpless and could only be imprisoned there.
Tang Qiying wasn't in a hurry at all. He just wanted to defeat Xiao Yan in the most humiliating way possible. Xiao Yan was the biggest inner demon on his path to continue. He had to kill Xiao Yan in the most satisfying way possible so that he could truly be reborn.
Tang Qiying stared at Xiao Yan as she stretched out her hand again, this time with only two fingers: "Black Flame is useless, so Xiao Yan, you only have two trump cards left. Which one will you play first? It's really something to look forward to..."
Before Tang Qiying could finish speaking, a soul vortex appeared beside him. A powerful suction force began to affect Tang Qiying, attempting to drag him into the soul vortex.
Soul Flow Black Vortex!
Xiao Yan launched another attack, still starting with his soul power.
Seeing this, Tang Qiying sneered, "Not only do you not do as I say, but you're also using the same old tricks again. Do you think that will work? You're truly laughable!"
