Chapter 223: Battle

A Rank Seven Gu Immortal faced one Earth Calamity every ten years, one Heavenly Tribulation every fifty years, and one Grand Calamity every hundred years. Yet even surviving a Grand Calamity only granted around seven thousand two hundred and fifty dao marks. The three Rank Seven Gu Immortals before him had not even survived their first Grand Calamity. At most, each possessed around fifteen thousand dao marks.

Rumble!

Hurricanes, yellow sand, and countless brilliant thoughts swept across the battlefield, blotting out the sky. Lin Yan remained where he stood, unmoving. Fire Transformation Robe activated, and every attack that struck him transformed into surging exotic flames before being completely absorbed.

Looking at the three of them indifferently, Lin Yan slowly raised his hand. "Only this much?" A colossal crimson handprint instantly condensed high above the battlefield. It stretched across more than ten thousand metres, blotting out the sky itself. Beneath it, the three Rank Seven Gu Immortals looked no different from ants.

Mo Guang’s face paled as he sensed the overwhelming power contained within the handprint. "How is this possible?!"

Boom!

The Mystic Sun Myriad Flames Great Handprint descended with irresistible force. The three Rank Seven Gu Immortals were smashed deep into the desert as a boundless sea of crimson flames erupted outward. Endless sand melted into rivers of lava, while the terrifying shockwave swept across the battlefield. Only after the flames gradually subsided did the three Gu Immortals struggle free. Their robes were in tatters, large portions of their bodies had been scorched black, and they had survived only by desperately activating their defensive killer moves.

"Only two years..." Fear finally appeared in Mo Guang’s eyes. "How has your strength reached such a level? Even the three of us together are no match for you!"

Mo Si’s expression turned grave. "His dao mark accumulation is simply too overwhelming. My Wisdom Path methods can’t affect him at all."

The three Mo Family Gu Immortals immediately understood the real reason behind Lin Yan’s overwhelming strength. This was no longer a contest of killer moves. Faced with such an enormous disparity in dao marks, even the most profound killer moves could not bridge the gap.

Lin Yan showed them no mercy. Raising the lamp in his hand, he sent three streams of crimson Otherworldly Flame streaking across the sky.

Immortal Killer Move: Raging Flames Engulfing the Body!

"Block it!" Mo Guang roared as he immediately activated Yellow Earth Immortal Gu. Streams of profound yellow qi cascaded from above his head while the other two Rank Seven Gu Immortals hurriedly unleashed their own defensive killer moves.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three streams of crimson flame struck almost simultaneously, erupting into towering pillars of fire. The three Gu Immortals shuddered violently as blood surged within their bodies, and although they managed to block the attack, the terrifying impact still blasted them hundreds of kilometers away, leaving their faces deathly pale. Lin Yan’s expression remained calm. He had never expected a single killer move to decide the battle. Once a killer move was exposed, it naturally became easier to defend against, and without giving them a chance to steady themselves, he prepared to launch another attack.

At that moment, Mo Si finally made his move. Countless invisible thoughts silently invaded Lin Yan’s mind, attempting to disrupt the activation of Lin Yan killer move and trigger a backlash.

Immortal Killer Move: Disheartened!

The next instant, Mo Si’s body trembled.

"Pfft!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood as his face instantly turned pale. Lin Yan merely felt a slight heaviness descend upon his mind, as though a mountain had pressed against it. His thoughts slowed for only an instant before the invading force was completely shattered by Self Dream Gu. His soul had long been protected by the Dream Path killer move. A cold smile appeared on Lin Yan’s face. Dream Path stood five hundred years ahead of the current era. How could an ordinary Wisdom Path killer move possibly shake it?

Seeing Mo Si suffer the backlash, Lin Yan immediately seized the opportunity. With a thought, a majestic crimson valley flew out of his immortal aperture. Dozens of miniature suns floated within it, radiating boundless heat as the entire valley descended toward Mo Si.

Bang!

Sunflame Valley was incomparably sturdy and brimmed with boundless Flame Path power. As it Smashed toward Mo Si, the dozens of miniature suns within exploded one after another.

A crimson-gold sun rose over the battlefield, outshining the scorching sun in the sky. Endless white light engulfed everything as the earth split apart and space itself trembled beneath the terrifying explosion.

"How dare you!"

Mo Guang and the remaining Mo Family Gu Immortal were both shocked and enraged. Without waiting for the flames to disperse, they immediately launched their attacks.

Immortal Dao Killer Move: A Handful of Yellow Earth!

Immortal Dao Killer Move: Wind-Swept Remaining Sand!

Lin Yan struck out with a crimson handprint, crushing most of the two killer moves. The remaining force landed on Fire Transformation Robe before transforming into raging flames and disappearing without causing him the slightest harm.

Sunflame Valley flew back and hovered above Lin Yan. Nearly half of its miniature suns had been exhausted, and its aura had weakened considerably.

As the flames gradually dispersed, a fifty kilometer wide crater of molten lava appeared before everyone’s eyes. Above it, an immortal aperture slowly descended, drawing in heaven and earth qi as it transformed into a blessed land.

Mo Si was dead. The remaining two Mo Family Gu Immortals stared blankly at the newborn blessed land, their faces filled with disbelief.

"You... you actually killed a Mo Family Gu Immortal!"

Lin Yan paid them no attention. Holding the Three flavour Otherworldly Flame in one hand while Sunflame Valley hovered above him, he pressed the attack relentlessly. One Flame Path killer move after another descended upon the battlefield, forcing the two Mo Family Gu Immortals into a desperate defense.

Two years ago, he had deliberately restrained himself to avoid affecting Fang Yuan’s rebirth. Now that Fang Yuan had already been reborn and the Huang Family had safely settled within Flame Sovereign Blessed Land, there was nothing left for him to worry about. Apart from his Dream Path methods, which were unnecessary against opponents of this level, he unleashed all seven of his Flame Path Immortal Gu without holding back. Among Rank Seven Gu Immortals, almost no one could contend with him. Of course, with the sole exception of Feng jie gu.
