BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 364: One Against Two!

Chapter 364: One Against Two!

In the sky above the square, Xiao Yi Xian was being surrounded and attacked by Xie Shan and the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion. Over on Xiao Yin’s side, there was no reaction whatsoever. She remembered Gu He’s strict order very clearly: "Do not intervene unless it's a life-and-death crisis." Moreover, Xiao Yi Xian’s recent changes in strength were clearer to Xiao Yin than anyone else. Even at the Dou Emperor level, Xiao Yi Xian's combat power was unmatched across the entire continent, strong enough to rival some of the weaker Dou Zong.

At this moment, under Xiao Yin’s gaze, Xiao Yi Xian had already put some distance of several hundred meters between herself and the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion. By this time, Xie Shan had also purged the poison that had just invaded his body and, along with the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion, moved in to encircle Xiao Yi Xian.

Xiao Yi Xian stood calmly in mid-air, showing no panic despite being surrounded by both a person and a beast.

With a series of hand seals, she was suddenly enveloped in purple flames. A terrifying heat spread through the entire area, making people’s hearts tremble.

"My goodness, this is too terrifying!"

Sensing the frightening heat, the elders of the Poison Demon Sect, the two Dou Emperor experts from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, and Hua An all halted their actions, turning their gazes towards Xiao Yi Xian.

Over on Xie Shan’s side, when he saw this strange phenomenon, he forgot to blow the long whistle held in his mouth and stared at Xiao Yi Xian, his brows furrowed.

Because, at that moment, the purple flame surrounding Xiao Yi Xian gradually transformed into a ten-zhang-sized purple butterfly. Although it wasn't as large as the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion, the pressure it exerted was even more intense.

"Netherworld Poison Flame!"

"Isn’t this legendary poison flame said to be impossible to refine?"

Seeing the gigantic purple butterfly radiating terrifying heat, Xie Shan, who was well-versed in ancient texts, was filled with boundless doubt and fear.

"Go, roast that big guy for me!"

Xiao Yi Xian didn’t give Xie Shan a chance to ponder. After summoning the Netherworld Poison Flame, she swiftly controlled it to attack the massive body of the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion.

Under Xiao Yi Xian's control, the huge purple butterfly flapped its wings. As soon as it took action, it displayed the Butterfly Dance technique, whipping up a gust filled with fire and poison, dancing gracefully in the sky.

Seeing the purple butterfly’s offensive stance, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion’s large pupils flashed with ferocity. It shook its four massive wings and charged at the purple butterfly, refusing to be outdone.

"Whoosh~"

The giant iron pincers of the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion, almost half the size of the purple butterfly, aimed to clamp down on its target with a powerful gust. However, it greatly underestimated the speed of the Netherworld Poison Flame when performing the Butterfly Dance.

In just a split second, the purple butterfly moved from its original position, flying towards the abdomen of the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion before ramming into it fiercely.

The scorpion's abdomen had weaker defenses compared to its back. However, even so, normal attacks wouldn’t inflict much damage.

When the purple butterfly struck, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion initially didn’t feel any pain. However, moments later, the thick hairs covering its jagged legs started to burn rapidly. The intense searing pain caused it to emit a shrill screech.

In this agony, its massive body trembled slightly, and the Dou Qi energy within it surged madly toward the burning purple flames.

Yet, as the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion attempted to react, the purple butterfly had already flown out from under its abdomen, turning to rush toward its head. Noticing the butterfly’s movement, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion hastily retracted its large pincers to protect its head.

Simultaneously, its enormous stinger, longer than its body, aimed at the purple butterfly once again, stabbing down rapidly with a layer of dense Dou Qi.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian quickly maneuvered the purple butterfly to dodge. In terms of speed, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion was no match for the Netherworld Poison Flame-formed purple butterfly. When the stinger was still ten meters away from it, the butterfly had already gracefully moved aside, leaving behind only a pair of giant pincers that had been slightly scorched to a reddish hue.

Bang!

However, even though the purple butterfly had already moved away from its previous position, the stinger's attack could not be withdrawn in time. With a fierce sound of clashing metal, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion’s stinger ended up making intimate contact with its own large pincers.

From the impact, the originally rock-hard pincer now had a pit over two meters deep. It was just a bit short of piercing through the thick outer shell of the pincers.

Suffering such a heavy blow, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion let out another agonizing screech.

Not far away, Xie Shan, who was controlling the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion, wore a grim expression.

This was just the beginning of the battle, and the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion had already suffered a significant loss. If the fight continued, defeat seemed inevitable.

"That purple butterfly is under her control. I need to interrupt her so she can't focus on controlling it!"

After a quick assessment, Xie Shan swung his blue staff and launched a rapid attack on Xiao Yi Xian. This time, he was much more cautious than before, making sure not to come into contact with the gray Dou Qi that Xiao Yi Xian unleashed.

However, despite his cultivation level being one star higher than Xiao Yi Xian's, he had no advantage in Dou Qi strength. After two or three clashes, he found himself at a disadvantage again.

While Xie Shan and Xiao Yi Xian were locked in combat, the purple flames on the legs of the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion's abdomen were finally extinguished with a constant flow of Dou Qi. However, its situation did not improve in the slightest. The moment the flames were put out, an unimaginable amount of venom had penetrated through the burned and broken shell of its legs and seeped into its flesh.

"Ah!"

In the next moment, both Xie Shan and the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion simultaneously fell into defeat, letting out cries of pain.

Xie Shan was already suffering from multiple doses of Xiao Yi Xian’s Envenomed Calamity Poison. Similarly, the Four-Winged Heavenly Venom Scorpion, now also poisoned, was in such agony that it plummeted towards the ground. Rolling uncontrollably, it shattered the giant rocks outside the Ten Thousand Venom Gate's mountain gate. Its most miserable condition, however, was its four pairs of seemingly sturdy wings, which had somehow been burned to mere skeletal frames.

Watching the battle, Hua An’s heart was greatly uplifted. He never imagined that the young girl he intended to take as a disciple a few months ago had now grown into such a formidable figure, one he could only look up to.

"We’re retreating!"

Realizing he was no match for Xiao Yi Xian, Xie Shan abandoned the thought of continuing the fight.
