Xiao Yan quickly regained his composure and soon noticed numerous figures hovering in the sky ahead. Among them, the three figures at the forefront were also at the Earth Supreme level, and they were likely the three patriarchs of the Eastern Capital.
However, Xiao Yanâs eyebrows slightly lifted, and he prepared to leave. Now that he had advanced to Earth Supreme, he should continue his adventures in the Great Thousand World.
Just as Xiao Yan was about to leave, the robust voice of the Zhao Family Patriarch, one of the three patriarchs, echoed: "Young friend, please wait a moment!"
"What is it?" Xiao Yan paused, his gaze falling on the middle-aged man in gray robes, sensing that these three seemed to harbor hostility towards him.
"A year ago, you plundered all nine spirit pools. Now that you have advanced to Earth Supreme, do you think you can just leave easily?" the Zhao Family Patriarch said, his tone tinged with a hint of coldness.
"Oh? What do you intend to do?" Xiao Yanâs gaze swept over the three of them, his tone indifferent, showing no fear.
"100 million drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid as compensation!" the Zhao Family Patriarch said calmly, causing the people of the Eastern Capital to gape in shock. 100 million drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid was an astronomical figure.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was also taken aback. 100 million drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid? Not only did he not have it, but even if he did, he wouldnât give it!
"I donât have it. Goodbye!" Xiao Yan then turned and walked away, ignoring the three of them. If they had been a bit more polite, he might have compensated them with some high-grade Imperial Seed Pills.
But since they were making such exorbitant demands, he had no reason to deal with them.
"Ridiculous!" The three patriarchs were furious at Xiao Yanâs disregard for them. They were three Earth Supremes, after all.
A newly advanced Earth Supreme had no right to act so arrogantly in front of them. Subsequently, the vast spiritual energy within their bodies erupted, and they instantly surrounded Xiao Yan.
Seeing the three of them surround him, Xiao Yanâs gaze turned cold, and he said indifferently, "Donât blame me for not warning you. If you make a move, there will be no regrets later!"
Hearing Xiao Yanâs light-hearted words, the faces of the three patriarchs instantly showed a mocking expression. A newly advanced Earth Supreme dared to speak so arrogantly.
"Boastful!" The three patriarchs stared at Xiao Yan and laughed coldly. Dealing with a newly advanced Earth Supreme, if the three of them worked together, they could completely overwhelm him.
"Since thatâs the case, thereâs no need for more words. All three of you, come at me. Iâm actually looking for some Supreme Spirit Liquid!"
Xiao Yanâs dark eyes swept over the three of them, and a mysterious smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. To break through to Earth Supreme, he had even used up the 600,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid he had on hand. Now that these three had come to him, Xiao Yan naturally wouldnât be polite.
However, hearing Xiao Yanâs final words, the mocking expressions on the faces of the three patriarchs deepened. This kid was actually eyeing their Supreme Spirit Liquid, truly courting death!
"Attack!"
The three patriarchs exchanged glances, their eyes flashing with a cold, blade-like light. Without hesitation, they moved their minds, and vast spiritual energy roared out, causing a storm of spiritual energy to sweep across the sky. Then, they simultaneously swung their large hands at Xiao Yan.
As the three patriarchs attacked, the space around Xiao Yan rippled violently. Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, a torrent of river water suddenly surged out.
The overwhelming momentum swept across the sky, causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to boil, making people involuntarily gasp in awe. Truly, Earth Supremes were terrifying, able to summon the power of heaven and earth with a wave of their hand!
The surging river water roared across the sky, tearing apart the space within dozens of meters. In just a few moments, a transparent bell dozens of meters wide formed above Xiao Yan, covered in runes that emitted an extremely terrifying aura, as if it could suppress all things in the world.
Boom!
After the bell condensed, the hand seals of the three patriarchs suddenly changed, and the runes on the transparent bell quickly flashed, causing the bell to instantly expand to a thousand meters.
The thousand-meter transparent bell floated under the moonlight, shimmering with a crystalline luster, exuding a suffocating pressure.
Seeing the massive thousand-meter transparent bell, the crowdâs faces twitched, and they all retreated dozens of meters, fearing being caught in the crossfire. A battle between Earth Supremes, even a peak Ninth Rank Supreme, would likely end in a gruesome death if caught in it.
In the vast black sky, the thousand-meter bell, carrying a terrifying aura, descended from the heavens, crushing the space in its path.
Like a meteor, it descended directly towards Xiao Yan, the terrifying aura of the bell enveloping a thousand-meter radius around him, leaving him no place to run.
Clearly, the three patriarchs intended to suppress Xiao Yan with a single blow. This attack, executed by the three of them together, could even briefly trap a higher-level Earth Supreme, let alone a newly advanced one like Xiao Yan!
Lifting his head to look at the thousand-meter bell that was rapidly growing in his field of vision, Xiao Yanâs dark eyes were filled with a brilliant light, and a scorching aura quietly spread from his body.
"Want to suppress me? Thatâs too naive!"
As he spoke, a fierce look flashed in Xiao Yanâs brilliant eyes, and he suddenly formed a hand seal. The scorching aura swept out like a storm, causing the space around him to ripple like water.
"Imperial Flame Burns All!"
Xiao Yan roared, and in the shocked gazes of the crowd, a vast sea of brilliant flames instantly spread out behind him, causing the faces of the crowd to change instantly.
The temperature in the ten-thousand-meter space rose to an extremely terrifying level, and the entire sky took on a bizarre color, making people feel as if they were in a volcano.
Then, with a wave of his sleeve, a towering wave of flames surged from behind Xiao Yan. It was a thousand-meter wave of fire, crashing against the space, causing bizarre black curtains of space to appear. The terrifying flames seemed to be able to burn everything in the world, extremely terrifying!
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The terrifying wave of flames shot up into the sky, crashing fiercely against the thousand-meter bell descending from the heavens.
There was no loud explosion, no resistance. The brilliant wave of flames instantly swallowed the thousand-meter bell, which quietly burned and dissipated in the brilliant wave.
The crowd nearby felt their scalps tingle, and an extreme chill rose from their feet, making their bodies shiver involuntarily.
What a terrifying flame! The combined attack of three lower-level Earth Supremes was so easily defeated by this brilliant flame, truly shocking. If they hadnât seen it with their own eyes, they wouldnât have believed what they were witnessing.
"Is this Holy Fire?"
Seeing the thousand-meter bell swallowed by the brilliant flames, the three patriarchs were startled. With their keen eyes, they naturally recognized this as an extremely terrifying flame. In the Great Thousand World, only Holy Fire could unleash such terrifying energy.
However, the color of this Holy Fire left them puzzled, making it difficult for them to determine which rank it was.
