Doupo: Marry a Young Doctor and Be Rewarded with Douhuang Cultivation

235: Half-step Dou Di, Soul Emperor!At the same time, the fierce battle between the Three Clans Allied Forces and the Hun Clan army also entered a white-hot stage.

The three immortals of the ancient clan joined forces to fight against the Hun Clan’s Demon Saint, while Gu Dao led the Black Annihilation Army in a bloody battle against the Hun Clan soldiers.

Yan Jin Yan Jin’s Fire Lotus Karmic Fire and Lei Ying Lei Ying’s Heavenly Thunder Wrath Flame intertwined, forcing another Hun Clan Demon Saint to retreat steadily.

Xun’er, holding the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, fought against several Hun Clan Dou Sheng, and wherever the golden flames passed, Hun Clan powerhouses fell one after another.

The sky above the Black-Corner Region had already been dyed red with blood and flames.

Shouts of battle, screams, and the sounds of energy collisions intertwined, forming a tragic battle song.

Countless powerhouses fell in this great battle, blood stained the earth, and bones piled up like mountains.

The duel between Xiao Ze and Hun Tiandi, in particular, tugged at everyone’s heartstrings.

The Chaos Fire Dragon and the soul emperor phantom fought endlessly, flames and Soul Qi intertwined, space constantly shattered, and energy storms swept in all directions.

Relying on his Half-step Dou Di strength and the purifying power of the Chaos Heaven Burning Flame, Xiao Ze gradually gained the upper hand, and the light of the soul emperor phantom grew dimmer and dimmer.

”Impossible! How could I lose to you!”

A hint of madness flashed in Hun Tiandi’s eyes. He fiercely bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood, which merged into the soul emperor phantom.

The aura of the phantom instantly surged, temporarily suppressing the Chaos Fire Dragon.

”A cornered beast still fights!”

Xiao Ze snorted coldly, and the Chaos Heaven Burning Flame within him surged again. He integrated the power of his Emperor Realm Soul into the flames, and the Chaos Fire Dragon’s might grew even stronger. It bit the neck of the soul emperor phantom and fiercely tore at it.

”Ah—!”

The soul emperor phantom let out a mournful scream, its light instantly dimmed, turning into specks of starlight and dissipating.

Hun Tiandi suffered a backlash, spitting out fresh blood, his figure swaying precariously.

Xiao Ze seized the opportunity, his figure flashed, and he appeared before Hun Tiandi. The Chaos Heaven Burning Flame condensed into a sword, pointing directly at Hun Tiandi’s glabella: ”Hun Tiandi, die!”

Just then, a black pillar of light suddenly erupted from the black altar behind the Hun Clan army, shooting directly into Hun Tiandi’s body.

Hun Tiandi’s aura instantly surged, and he also stepped into the Half-step Dou Di Realm!

”Xiao Ze, I have billions of resentments to help me. Today, who will win is yet to be known!”

Xiao Ze frowned, not expecting Hun Tiandi to have such a hidden trump card.

But he did not back down, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: ”Even if you also step into Half-step Dou Di, today, I will still cut you down!”

The two Half-step Dou Di figures began their final decisive battle in the sky above the Black-Corner Region.

Flames and Soul Qi intertwined, and the Laws of heaven and earth fluctuated violently. The outcome of this decisive battle would determine the fate of the entire Central Plains.

At the same time, deep within the Black-Corner Region, where the flames of war had not yet reached, inside Jia Nan Academy.

The campus, usually filled with the sound of reading and the crisscrossing of Sword Qi, was now permeated with a heavy atmosphere.

In the academy square, thousands of teachers and students stood in neat rows, looking with complex expressions at the figure on the high platform in front.

Su Qian, dressed in a green Elder’s robe, with white hair and beard, his aura as stable as a mountain, was precisely the Grand Elder of Jia Nan Academy.

Beside him stood several core powerhouses of the academy, all Dou Zun-level existences, their faces equally solemn.

”Fellow teachers and students,” Su Qian’s voice was old but powerful, echoing throughout the square, ”The Three Clans Allied Forces and the Hun Clan army are about to engage in a decisive battle in the Black-Corner Region. This battle concerns the survival of the Central Plains, and also the fate of my Jia Nan Academy. The Black-Corner Region has become a place of turmoil. To ensure everyone’s safety, the academy has decided that all teachers and students will immediately evacuate the Black-Corner Region and temporarily take refuge in the heartland of the Central Plains.”

As soon as these words were spoken, a commotion immediately broke out in the square.

Many students showed reluctance; Jia Nan Academy was their home where they had cultivated for many years.

Many also showed panic; the infamous reputation of the Hun Clan had long spread across the continent, and no one wanted to be caught in this catastrophe.

”Grand Elder, what about you all?” a young student couldn’t help but ask loudly, his eyes full of worry.

Su Qian slowly raised his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet. His gaze swept over the teachers and students present, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes: ”I, along with several Elders and core powerhouses of the academy, will remain to guard the academy. Jia Nan Academy has a Legacy of a thousand years and cannot be destroyed in one fell swoop. The Heavenly Flame Refining Tower is an ancient Secret Realm, and it might be able to provide assistance to the allied forces. We must guard the academy and hold this last stronghold for Mr. Xiao Ze and the allied forces.”

”Grand Elder! I’ll stay too!” a young teacher of Dou Wang-level stepped forward and said loudly.

”I’ll stay too!”

”And me!”

For a time, many senior students and teachers volunteered to fight, wanting to share the academy’s fate.

A hint of relief flashed in Su Qian’s eyes, then he shook his head: ”No need. Your mission is to pass on the academy’s flame, not to sacrifice yourselves here. During the evacuation, there will be academy powerhouses to escort you. You only need to go to the Central Plains with peace of mind, cultivate diligently, and contribute your strength to protecting this land in the future.”

His tone was firm and beyond doubt. Afterward, Su Qian turned to the several powerhouses beside him and instructed: ”Immediately arrange the evacuation matters, and ensure the safety of every teacher and student. Issue the order to activate the academy’s outer defensive formation to delay the Hun Clan army’s advance and await the arrival of the allied forces.”

”Yes, Grand Elder!” the several powerhouses responded in unison, then began to arrange the evacuation in an orderly manner.

Although the thousands of teachers and students were reluctant, they also knew the seriousness of the situation. They packed their belongings and, led by the academy guards, withdrew towards the outskirts of the Black-Corner Region.

The crowd flowed like a tide towards the heartland of the Central Plains, and everyone’s heart was filled with anticipation, hoping that the allied forces could defeat the Hun Clan and return home soon.

After the last batch of teachers and students evacuated the Black-Corner Region’s sphere of influence, Su Qian looked at their retreating figures, slowly closed his eyes, then opened them again, only determination remaining in his gaze.

He turned to the several powerhouses beside him and said: ”Everyone, follow me to the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, activate the core formation, and prepare to face the enemy!”

”We swear to defend Jia Nan Academy to the death!” the several powerhouses shouted in unison, their voices ringing with power.

The group flashed and sped towards the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower deep within the academy.

Soon, the entire Jia Nan Academy was enveloped by a faint light curtain, which was the academy’s mountain-protecting formation.

The Myriad Fire Burning Heaven Array.

As the formation activated, countless flame runes flowed on the light curtain, emitting a scorching and domineering aura, capable of resisting even Dou Sheng-level powerhouses to some extent.

On the top floor of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, Su Qian and several academy powerhouses sat cross-legged, continuously injecting Dou Qi to maintain the operation of the formation.

They could clearly feel the terrifying energy fluctuations coming from the border of the Black-Corner Region—that was the aura of the clash between the Three Clans Allied Forces and the Hun Clan army, shaking heaven and earth.

”Mr. Xiao Ze, Three Clans Allied Forces, I’m counting on you!” Su Qian looked at the distant sky, silently praying in his heart.

He knew that what he and the several powerhouses of the academy could do was to guard the academy and buy time for the allied forces. The outcome of this decisive battle would ultimately depend on the duel between Xiao Ze and Hun Tiandi.
