Battle Through the Heavens: Live Q&a Session - Only I Know the Answers

97: Chapter 96 Battle against the Nine Heavens Venerable”Wind Idle, with the cultivation of a four-star Dou Zun, to be able to persist this long in the hands of this six-star Dou Zun, you can be considered to have some ability.”

White Heaven Venerable held Wind Idle, his face full of mockery and disdain, his tone as if looking at an ant about to be crushed to death.

Wind Idle looked at Venerable Yao, his eyes filled with unwillingness and remorse. He hated his own insufficient strength for failing to protect Venerable Yao, and he also hated the rampant and vicious nature of the Hall of Souls.

”Hehehe, Yao Chen, in this situation, what else do you have to say?”

Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu’s mouth curled up slightly, outlining a cruel arc. Looking at Venerable Yao, who was pierced by black chains, his eyes were full of triumph.

”The once high and mighty Venerable Yao is now nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered in my hands.”

Xiao Yan looked at the captured Venerable Yao and the half-dead appearance of Wind Idle, his eyes filled with despair. His heart was full of unwillingness, his hands clenched tightly into fists, his nails embedded in his palms, dripping with blood, but he had no way to change the cruel situation before him.

”Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu, the person you want to capture is me. Let my disciple go, and I will go with you.” Venerable Yao said weakly, his breath fading.

Every word seemed to exhaust his last bit of strength, his voice weak yet firm.

”Yao Chen, what kind of joke are you telling? You are now a prisoner, yet you still dream of negotiating terms with me? Today, not only will I take you away, but I will also take your disciple back to the Hall of Souls, so you can both get a good look at the methods of the Hall of Souls.”

”Hehehe...”

Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu looked at Venerable Yao, his eyes full of disdain and mockery. That laughter echoed in this space, making one shudder.

Xiao Yan looked at Venerable Yao, but the thoughts in his mind were suddenly pulled back to the past.

”Brother Xiao Yan, keep this spatial jade slip well. If you encounter danger, crush it, and a powerful expert will come to help you.”

Xiao Xun Er’s gentle and lovely appearance appeared clearly in his mind, dressed in green, her smile as sweet as honey, as if it had a magical power that made his agitated and uneasy heart gradually calm down.

”Right, I haven’t lost yet! I have the jade slip given by Xun’er!”

At this thought, a light of hope suddenly lit up in Xiao Yan’s eyes. With a thought, his storage ring flashed, and a spatial jade slip appeared in his palm.

”Bang!”

The crisp sound broke the tense atmosphere of the scene. Xiao Yan crushed the jade slip without hesitation. In an instant, the jade slip turned into specks of light, as if transmitting some kind of signal to the distance.

”What? A spatial jade slip!!!”

Seeing this, Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu’s face turned pale instantly, his eyes full of shock and fear.

He was all too familiar with this spatial jade slip, knowing well that only those with vigorous Dou Qi and expertise in spatial power could refine it.

In other words, once the jade slip was broken, the person summoned would surely be an extraordinary peerless expert.

Alarm bells rang in Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu’s heart, and he roared without hesitation, ”Retreat quickly!” Before his voice fell, his hands moved rapidly, and strands of black Dou Qi intertwined like pythons in front of him, instantly forming a defensive barrier.

At the same time, the Black and White Heavenly Venerates also quickly gathered around. The three of them stood back-to-back, watching their surroundings vigilantly, ready to flee at any moment.

Just at this moment, a brilliant golden light descended from the sky, instantly illuminating this world as if it were day.

Everyone only felt their vision blur, and then they found themselves inside a giant golden sphere. The surrounding space seemed to be imprisoned by a mysterious force, making it impossible to move.

”Xiao Yan?” A gentle, jade-like voice rang out in the golden light. ”I didn’t expect Xiao Xun Er to have given you the jade slip I refined.”

A man dressed in white slowly emerged from the golden light. On his white clothes, exquisite patterns were embroidered with golden silk thread, shining brilliantly under the sunlight, appearing extremely magnificent and noble.

This person was Chen Yang. He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing calmly at Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu and the others. His eyes were as deep as an abyss, as if he could see through everything.

Under Han Li’s gaze, Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu and the Black and White Heavenly Venerates felt as if they were being pricked by needles on their backs. Cold sweat dripped from their foreheads uncontrollably, and their backs were already soaked.

Xiao Yan was also full of astonishment. He never expected that the expert Xun’er spoke of would be Han Li.

”Han Li, I didn’t expect the helper Xun’er mentioned to be you.” Xiao Yan looked up slightly, looking at Han Li and said.

”What? Am I not worthy of being called an expert?” Chen Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth curling up, revealing a faint smile. ”Besides, looking at this situation, you seem to have fallen into quite a bit of trouble. How about it? Do you need me to make a move and deal with these guys?”

Chen Yang’s voice was as calm as water, yet it carried an unquestionable majesty, as if the so-called powerful lineup before him was nothing more than ants in his eyes.

The current Chen Yang had already broken through to the Fourth Level of the Four Extremes, and converted to Dou Qi cultivation, it was comparable to a peak Dou Zun expert. Under his perception, the strength of Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu and the others was like a candle flame compared to the bright moon; the difference was clear at a glance.

One eight-star Dou Zun plus two six-star Dou Zuns—such a lineup might be enough to be awe-inspiring in ordinary places, but in front of Chen Yang, it really wasn’t enough.

”Your... Your Excellency, who exactly are you? I am the Ninth Celestial of the Hall of Souls. If you are willing to raise your hand in mercy regarding today’s matter, we are willing to release Yao Chen and Wind Idle immediately, only hoping that Your Excellency can let us leave safely.”

Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu suppressed the fear in his heart and said with a trembling voice. His back was already soaked with cold sweat, his face as pale as paper, and his usual arrogance and domineering manner had long since vanished without a trace.

”Hall of Souls?” Han Li sneered softly. ”Hmph, if I let you leave today, I’m afraid that tomorrow some Grand Heavenly Lord or similar figure will come looking for me. Since that’s the case, you might as well leave your lives behind.”

Han Li’s eyes instantly turned cold as frost, and an invisible killing intent permeated the air.

Hearing Han Li’s words, the expression on Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu’s face froze instantly. He never expected that the person before him would not fear the reputation of the Hall of Souls at all.

After a moment of astonishment, Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu’s face turned ferocious and terrifying. He gritted his teeth and roared, ”Since that’s the case, then let’s fight to the death! Black and White Heavenly Venerates, follow me!”

Hearing this, the Black and White Heavenly Venerates looked at each other, a flash of determination in their eyes. They immediately released Venerable Yao and Wind Idle, their figures flashed, and they pounced towards Han Li.

Ninth Heaven Venerable Mo Yu followed closely behind, his entire body’s Dou Qi surging wildly. The three of them attacked Han Li in a triangular formation, attempting a final struggle.

Looking at the three people rushing up like starving wolves, Chen Yang’s mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer of disdain, shaking his head gently, as if sighing at their overestimation of their own capabilities.

Immediately, a flash of brilliance shone in his eyes. As he raised his hand, a vigorous divine power surged out from the Life Spring, stunningly unleashing an Earth-tier Low-grade Dou Technique—the ”Mountain Opening Seal.”

Chen Yang’s figure was like a ghost, instantly disappearing from the spot, leaving only a faint afterimage.

The next moment, he appeared behind Black Heaven Venerable without warning, as if teleporting.

At this moment, Black Heaven Venerable had not yet had time to detect the danger behind him, and the hairs on his body had not yet stood up, when Chen Yang’s palm, carrying the ”Mountain Opening Seal,” had already slammed fiercely onto his back. That palm was like Mount Tai pressing down, containing enough power to shatter mountains and crack stones.
