The colossal giant of Bai Zhang stood between heaven and earth, his aura flowing out like an endless ocean, thick and misty, surging and swirling with gusts of wind and thunder. "Ho!" The Xie Jun, though pale, radiated a chilling intensity in his eyes, fixed firmly on Xiao Yan high in the sky. A low, resonant cry erupted from his throat. "Die, you!" With a change of hand seal, the giant surged forward a single step. As he did, fierce winds roared across the sky, dark clouds rolled and churned, shaking the very heavens and earth. "Boom!" The giant advanced with powerful strides, gripping his massive hand as if seizing the very essence of the cosmos. A blinding, radiant brilliance erupted from his fist. As he swung, the space around him shattered, and a devastating gust of wind surged directly toward Xiao Yan in the sky, unrelenting. The giant's punch surged with the energy of the heavens and earth, a fierce gale swirling around the fist. Even the ground plaza beneath it cracked open, splitting with arms-wide fissures under the immense pressure. Such a devastating assault truly embodied the might of a six-star Domain Sovereign—no wonder. Beneath the overwhelming energy of this colossal figure, many of the Flower Sect's less powerful disciples grew pale, visibly shaken. They had rarely witnessed combat of this caliber—attacks so potent that mere gestures could easily obliterate entire mountain ranges, leaving them trembling in awe. On the plaza, the delicate concern on Yun Yun's face was also evident, though she had always trusted Xiao Yan's abilities. Facing such a determined assault from the Fiendish Flower Sovereign, no one could remain calm. "Hmm..." Xiao Yan floated in the sky, his bone wings gently flapping. The powerful wind pressure, even at a distance, pressed his robes tightly against his body, and the rushing wind roared like thunder right beside him, as if it might shatter his eardrums. "This is indeed the full power of a Six-Star Domain Sovereign," Xiao Yan murmured softly, exhaling. Then, he slowly raised his hand, and a destruction fire lotus, about the size of his palm, began to rotate slowly. Within the delicate, finely crafted petals of the lotus, true destructive power was concealed. "Go!" Lifting his hand slightly, Xiao Yan smiled gently, and the flaming lotus that rested in his palm shot forth, trailing a splendid flame tail through the air, rushing toward the colossal giant that loomed like a behemoth. "Break through this!" Watching the lotus surge toward him, the Divine King of the Fiery Blossom and Evil could not afford to be slow. Changing his hand seal, the giant roared skyward, and a powerful sonic wave spread out, forming a massive gale. With a mighty grip, he caught the gale in his hand, and, under the stunned gazes of all present, stepped forward steadily, swinging the wind with him, and struck the lotus—no larger than a grain of rice—with tremendous force. Following the explosive roar, a colossal flame storm surged across the heavens and earth. Under the relentless assault of this storm, the giant, towering a hundred zhang, was torn apart, its qi surging like water jets—yet as soon as this qi touched the storm's terrifying heat, it was instantly vaporized into nothingness. "Boom!" The flame storm struck the giant's body with tremendous force, causing its vast reservoir of qi to begin dissipating rapidly. "Explosion!" Xiao Yan drew in a deep breath of scorching air, retreating swiftly, and roared with fierce intensity. With the sound of his roar, the destructive flame storm finally erupted in full force. "Crash!" The wave of fire slammed against the giant's body, delivering such powerful force that the giant staggered back repeatedly, his form beginning to grow faint and translucent. "Thud! Thud! Thud!" The wave of fire brimming with destructive power continuously expanded, its terrifying heat instantly evaporating all moisture in the realm. Under the successive impacts of the wave, the giant's form grew increasingly ethereal, until, with a deep, resonant crack, it finally burst apart, dissolving into nothingness... "Pfft!" "How is this possible?" As the giant shattered, the demonic flower sovereign also spat out a stream of blood, his eyes filled with disbelief. Yet now, there was no time left for astonishment—after driving the giant back, the wave of fire, imbued with irresistible destructive force, surged forth with lightning speed, directly targeting him. Should he be struck, the demonic flower sovereign would be reduced to complete annihilation within an instant. Suppressing his growing shock, the sovereign gritted his teeth, drawing upon every ounce of qi within him, and his form surged like a flash of lightning, retreating with powerful momentum. The yōhua xījūn moved with extraordinary speed, breaching the aura defense shield surrounding the plaza in the blink of an eye. The wave of fire followed closely behind, arriving amidst the stunned gazes of numerous elders from the Flower Sect, and then struck with tremendous force. "Boom!" The massive shield trembled violently, ripples spreading rapidly—yet fortunately, it did not immediately collapse. Just as the Flower Sect elders were about to exhale in relief, a second wave of destructive fire expanded outward, like a great hammer, crashing down upon the aura shield. "Crack!" This time, the aura shield reached its limit, shattering with a sharp crack, and bursting open in a single, crisp sound. Without the barrier of the aura shield to impede it, the fire surged freely and unchecked. Witnessing this, the Flower Sect disciples surrounding the plaza instantly turned pale. "Oh...," yet as the wave of flame was about to spread across the vast plaza, a deep, resonant sigh echoed slowly across the sky. Suddenly, a figure materialized, his sleeves sweeping out, sending ripples of unseen energy spreading forth—these ripples gently met and then collided with the flame. As the two energies eroded each other, they gradually dissolved into mutual annihilation. "Senior Elder!" Some of the floral sect elders, witnessing this unexpected intervention, were visibly surprised. "Xiao Yan, are you attempting to destroy our entire Floral Sect?" The white-haired elder who had just appeared gazed toward Xiao Yan in the distance, speaking with a touch of resignation. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan, whose face had grown pale, felt a bit embarrassed. He had sensed the formidable strength of the white-haired elder and thus dared not act too boldly. Nodding respectfully, he said, "It is truly not out of necessity. I hope the old lady will not mind." "As he finished speaking, he first withdrew several pills from his naga-garment, swallowed them, then turned his gaze toward the floral tapestry on the plaza. Now, the tapestry's face was filled with sheer terror—her eyes fixed on Xiao Yan as though she had seen a ghost. She had never imagined that Xiao Yan could unleash an attack so formidable that even the demonic floral sovereign, a being of supernatural prowess, could not withstand it... In the sky, Xiao Yan glanced at the distant floral spirit king, gave him no heed, and slowly descended toward the ground, gazing at the flower silk at a distance without speaking. With a gentle sweep of his palm, four unusual flames reappeared. "Count me out!" Seeing the four flames reappear, the already pale flower silk's complexion turned ashen. Even unable to withstand the six-star battle steward's strength of the floral spirit king, she would likely have no chance to escape—she now urgently cried out. Hearing her cry, Xiao Yan smiled faintly. He opened his mouth and swallowed the four unusual flames whole. With his current strength, he couldn't possibly perform the destruction lotus flame twice in succession. Clearly, the woman had been frightened by the floral spirit king's fate. Seeing Huā Jǐn yield, many of the elder monks from the Huā Sect also gave a slight shake of their heads. This match today truly seemed like a farce—a Four-Star Du Zhun defeating a Six-Star Du Zhun, only to be defeated by a Two-Star Du Zhun. Should this story spread, it would indeed be a genuine source of laughter. "Heard that, Hua Jin clenched her hands tightly, but under such a crowd, she couldn't possibly back down. So she gritted her teeth, removed the jade plaque from her storage bracelet, and flung it hard toward Yun Yun."
