"This youngster is truly strange. With only the peak strength of an Eight-Star Dominant, he's capable of generating such terrifying energy!" The human scorpion stared intently at the swirling flames in Xiao Yan's hands, his expression shifting between surprise and growing resentment. Suddenly, his astonishment turned into cold determination. With a powerful punch, he shattered the space before him, creating a massive black rift several dozen zhang wide that crackled and burst open like a vast, dark, venomous serpent, surging toward Xiao Yan at lightning speed. "Boom!" The colossal rift raced across the sky, but just as it was nearing Xiao Yan at a distance of about fifteen zhang, several vibrant streaks of lightning erupted from the heavens, exploding violently and striking the spreading rift. The impact caused the rift to momentarily halt and then burst into fragments, effectively halting its advance. The attack was repelled, and the human scorpion's eyes darkened. He looked up at the massive, seven-colored sky-eating serpent soaring above, and chuckled, saying, "Lady, since you've decided to intervene, then I shall first deal with you all!" As he spoke, the human scorpion flashed into motion, transforming into a streak of light and shooting straight toward the seven-colored sky-eating serpent. Then, he unleashed a powerful punch, generating a deep, resonant sonic boom that surged forward, roaring toward his target. With a single punch, he drove back Cai Lin. As the human scorpion let out a lusty laugh and prepared to turn around, a series of sharp gusts of wind reached his ears, carrying potent, venomous ki that formed precise, slashing ribbons, simultaneously piercing several vital points on his body. Sensing this sudden assault, the human scorpion furrowed his brows, then stomped his foot into the void, causing the space behind him to instantly warp into a solid, golden-iron wall that absorbed the ki ribbons with crisp, resonant clinks. "Two beauties," he exclaimed with a sharp laugh, "why bother dying for this young man? Follow me, and you shall never lack for pleasure..." Yet before he could finish speaking, he saw Xiao Yan at a distance, who had seamlessly fused all five flames together, causing the human scorpion's face to tremble involuntarily. "This madman is actually fusing the hetero-flames..." The human scorpion's eyes flickered with changing expressions. Though he didn't understand why this young man was undertaking such a seemingly insane endeavor, his instinct told him that if the boy continued like this, he would indeed be defeated here today. With that, the scorpion spun around, no longer paying attention to Cai Lin or Xiao Yixian, and surged forward like a streak of light, directly heading toward Xiao Yan. "Xiao Yan, be careful!" Seeing the scorpion's sudden move, Xiao Yixian quickly issued a warning and immediately followed suit, launching into motion. Feeling the powerful gust of wind rushing toward him, Xiao Yan lifted his head and gazed at the scorpion approaching with a grim expression. A cold laugh escaped him as his bone wings, shimmering with a blend of green and crimson, rapidly unfurled from behind. At the same time, a flash of silver light erupted beneath his feet, and within a moment, he had already appeared hundreds of feet away, leaving the scorpion wide-eyed and momentarily stunned. "Such remarkable speed!" Upon seeing Xiao Yan effortlessly evade his attack, the man with the scorpion's form was also startled. Yet before he could continue pursuing Xiao Yan, fierce assaults suddenly erupted from above and behind—exactly from the arriving Cai Lin and Xiao Yi. Facing the combined assault of these two, the scorpion could not allow them to strike him freely. He thus turned around, surging his inner qi forth, and met the attacks from behind with powerful force. "Boom!" The three engaged in fierce combat, producing a thunderous clash that resonated across the sky, waves of devastating energy spreading out like a tide, distorting the very space around them. "Hmph!" "They exchanged a fierce, thunderous clash, and both Cai Lin and Xiao Yi emitted low groans, their bodies shaken and retreating step by step. Though both possessed exceptional constitutions, they still fell far short of the Human Scorpion, and even together, they could not overcome him. Yet despite lacking the strength to defeat him outright, they remained resolute, ignoring the injuries caused by the rebound force. As soon as they stabilized their stances, a continuous barrage of attacks—like thunder rolling in—rained down upon the Human Scorpion, momentarily leaving him somewhat disoriented. Meanwhile, at the other battlefield, Tian and Di Scorpions grew pale. Though united, they were nearly no match for Yao Lao. Had it not been for their seamless coordination, they would have been broken down long ago. Even so, it was clear they could not hold out much longer. "Old Third, what are you doing?!" "At this point, do you still care about delicate things? Are you trying to die?" Once again violently sent flying by the old doctor, the two Tian and Xie Scorpions grew even paler. Glancing toward the distance, they couldn't help but roar in fury—unaware that, with their own strength, they had been held back by merely two women of no more than Eight-Star Battle Sovereign rank. As soon as their roar fell, the pressure around them surged dramatically. A massive flame fist, hundreds of paces in width, descended straight from the heavens and struck them with tremendous force. Though protected by their battle aura, the overwhelming gust of wind still sent both of them reeling, forcing them to cough up blood. "Oh no, the elders are going to fall!" The man Scorpion's heart sank upon seeing the two Scorpions stagger and retreat, exuding blood. "Since we can't capture that young man, we must take one of the beautiful women as a hostage—otherwise, today is going to be our last day!" With this thought firmly settled in his mind, the man scorpion completely abandoned his pursuit of Xiao Yan, instead delivering a powerful punch that shattered a massive, vibrant lightning bolt. Then, he grasped the young healer firmly in his hand, causing the space around her to instantly solidify. "Boom!" Feeling the rigid space surrounding her, the young healer's face subtly changed as her inner qi surged forth in overwhelming waves, shaking the surrounding space like tangible substance—but still failed to breach it. "Hahahaha, beauty, this time, I shall take you with me!" As the young healer attempted to shake and push back through the distorted space, the man scorpion swiftly materialized before her, smiled lasciviously at her, and reached out to grasp her firmly. "Wheee—!" Above, Cailei felt her heart sink upon seeing this person abandon Xiao Yan and directly seize the Young Healer. She immediately summoned the thunder power within the clouds, unleashing a torrential barrage of lightning strikes at the man scorpion. Yet, facing these attacks, the man scorpion merely grasped back with a single hand, and as space warped, he effortlessly shattered all the lightning strikes. "My lady, you're mine now!" With all the thunder shattered, the man scorpion chuckled warmly, his gaze blazing with passion upon the Young Healer, whose delicate features had subtly changed, and he reached out to grasp the healer's shoulders. "You're still too early in your joy!" However, as the human scorpion was about to grasp the young doctor, a sharp laugh suddenly echoed from behind him. Upon hearing the sound, the human scorpion's expression changed instantly—he swiftly turned around, his eyes narrowing sharply. There, a magnificent five-colored fire lotus, the size of a basin, was slicing through the space, rushing directly toward him. The flames continuously leapt around the petals of the lotus, radiating a terrifying force of destruction that gradually spilled out. Under this overwhelming power, even the human scorpion felt suddenly chilled to the core—its strength was truly comparable to some mid-tier celestial-level techniques. "Thick Earth Bell!" Though chilled, the human scorpion remained composed and quickly adjusted his hand seals. A surge of inner qi erupted forth, spreading throughout his body, and instantly, a solid, tangible great bell materialized, shielding his form. A sharp hiss! As the human scorpion deployed its defensive technique, a massive serpent's tail surged from the sky, swiftly ensnaring Xiao Yin and then retreating rapidly. "Go find the beauty—down below!" Xiang Yan, his expression cold, gazed at the human scorpion within the great bell, whose eyes betrayed subtle panic. A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth. With a single flap of his bone wings, Xiang Yan surged backward like lightning. At the same time, the hand seals he held instantly shifted. "Explosion!" As the word left Xiang Yan's lips, the five-colored lotus that had flown to the side of the great bell paused, then, under the human scorpion's stunned gaze, erupted in a sudden, powerful blast. "Boom!" The entire realm trembled instantly at the roar of that explosion. Within a thousand zhang, every mountain peak erupted with a thunderous "pop," violently shattered into powder. For a moment, an entire mountain range was transformed into a desert, with swirling sand, billowing smoke, and dense mist filling the heavens.
