Invincible Soul Emperor

Chapter 756: Chapter 756 Guest

The mysterious figure had no intention of letting Xiao Xiao go. Just as she attempted to retreat, he swiftly gave chase. With remarkable speed, the man closed the distance and rapidly thrust his longsword at her.

SWOOSH!

Xiao Xiao dodged the attack with agility. However, the mysterious man’s swordsmanship proved to be more refined than her own. As Xiao Xiao quickly fell back, the tip of his sword cut through the air once more, stabbing toward her.

WHOOSH!

Xiao Xiao dodged again. Seeing no other choice, she finally unleashed the power of her Vermilion Bird Holy Soul.

In an instant, the area grew scorching hot as boundless Energy surged toward her. The mysterious man could feel the temperature rising significantly. The Fire Element was exceptionally pure. Xiao Xiao raised her hand, unleashing streams of Energy from her palm that shot toward the mysterious man.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

A series of explosions echoed through the air as flames enveloped the mysterious man. He frowned, feeling the searing heat. These flames seem... special. They were not ordinary fire, but the flames of the Vermilion Bird Holy Soul!

”Hmph, mere child’s play!” the mysterious man’s derisive voice echoed through the air.

With a swing of his sword, a dense black light emanated from the blade. He then waved his black robe, and a layer of black mist enshrouded him. Once he was cloaked in the black mist, the damage from Xiao Xiao’s flames lessened significantly.

Xiao Xiao’s eyes widened in shock. This is bad! He’s absorbing the magic elements!

Her heart thumped violently. If he completely absorbs all the magic elements, how can I possibly win?

Steeling herself, Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth and continued to unleash the power of the Vermilion Bird Holy Soul. Suddenly, her clothing ignited. A red mist emerged from her body, transforming into countless tiny birds that rushed at the mysterious man. No sooner had they appeared than they began spitting out numerous little fireballs at him.

The mysterious man snorted coldly. He stretched out a finger, rapidly drawing a circle in the air that expanded into a ring and devoured all the flames.

BOOM!

As the explosion roared, sparks flew in all directions. Xiao Xiao and the mysterious man stood at a distance, staring at each other.

”You think an attack of this level can stop me?” the mysterious man sneered.

Hearing this, Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and once again condensed a ball of Energy in her hands.

”Then try this!”

Xiao Xiao’s body rose into the air again.

BOOM!

Flames blazed around her, forming a gigantic lotus flower. Xiao Xiao formed a series of hand seals, her figure slowly hovering in mid-air.

”Take this!” she cried out.

As she cried out, the Energy around her surged violently. Xiao Xiao spun rapidly, the flames emanating from her setting the surrounding air ablaze. The power of the Vermilion Bird Holy Soul in her hands grew stronger, finally forming an immense fiery circle. Under her control, the fiery circle hurtled toward the mysterious man. Her small frame moved swiftly within the flames as she rushed toward him.

Behind her, the flames took the shape of a Flame Phoenix’s wings. The phoenix’s eyes opened from within the blaze, emitting a scorching, fiery glow.

Seeing this, the mysterious man swiftly slashed his longsword at the Flame Phoenix. The eyes of the Flame Phoenix glittered with a scorching light, its flames growing more intense as it charged.

Xiao Xiao’s expression changed drastically. In that moment, the mysterious man’s longsword reached the Flame Phoenix.

PFFT!

The longsword pierced through the Flame Phoenix’s body. However, to the mysterious man’s surprise, the phoenix didn’t die. It clamped its jaws around his longsword.

CRUNCH!

Its flame-wreathed teeth snapped the longsword in two.

”So powerful!” The mysterious man watched in astonishment. He had never imagined the Flame Phoenix could bite through his sword.

”Hmph, you’re still too green. You can’t possibly be my match!” A murderous intent filled the mysterious man’s eyes.

He clenched his fist and launched a swift attack at the Flame Phoenix. In response, it opened its mouth and spewed flames toward him. Seeing this, the mysterious man’s black aura surged, solidifying the surrounding air. At the same time, the aura condensed into a long spear in his hands. He raised the spear and thrust it viciously at the Flame Phoenix.

BOOM!

The spear collided with the fire, sending a fierce blaze soaring into the sky and plunging the world into shadow. The Flame Phoenix soared and danced in midair. Xiao Xiao stood behind it, silently watching. My Flame Phoenix won’t be defeated so easily!

ROAR!

At that moment, the Flame Phoenix let out an enraged shriek. It burst from the blaze and charged at the mysterious man with its mouth wide open. The Flame Phoenix entwined itself around the long spear in the mysterious man’s hands, and with a CRACK, the spear broke apart. After tearing the spear asunder, it shot toward the mysterious man’s face.

”Damn it!” Alarmed, the mysterious man quickly drew back his arm and dodged to the side.

Standing at a distance, Xiao Xiao quietly observed the scene. She watched as the Flame Phoenix opened its mouth and spat a massive fireball at the mysterious man. He dodged rapidly, but the fireball’s power was so terrifying that it forced him onto the defensive.

A black aura emanated from the mysterious man, rapidly forming a protective Shield. The fireball struck the Shield, erupting in a violent explosion. Cracks appeared on the Shield before it shattered instantly.

Seeing this, the mysterious man panicked. He quickly took out an Elixir, swallowed it, and began to rapidly recover his depleted Energy. After taking the Elixir, the man’s complexion improved slightly, but his eyes remained as cold as ever.

”Little girl, you certainly have some skill,” the mysterious man said, his face grim. ”But since you’ve stepped in here today, I will not spare you, even if it takes everything I have!”

”COUGH, COUGH. This place is certainly lively! I just stepped inside for a moment, and it’s already utter chaos out here. A-san, what’s going on? How could you raise a hand against my guest?”

Just then, a crisp male voice rang out.
