107. Huge Gap
Lu Huangtian is not like Lu Chen, who advanced to the Dou Zun level by simply relying on external forces. He became a Dou Zun by virtue of his own true strength.
After his attack just now, Xiao Yan felt that without the continuous replenishment of energy within his body, he would probably have lost the ability to fight on the spot.
Just as Lu Huangtian was about to make a move, a figure flashed, and He Kui arrived in front of Xiao Yan, staring at Lu Huangtian and saying, "Sect Master Lu, our battle is not over yet!"
Lu Huangtian looked at He Kui without saying much, his expression even showing disdain. The fact that He Kui had found an opportunity to directly injure Xiao Yan earlier proved that there was a significant gap between Dou Zun. He could even find an opportunity to attack Xiao Yan during his fight with He Kui, although Lu Huangtian's gaze towards Xiao Yan was clearly hostile.
He hadn't held back at all in his sneak attack just now. He hadn't shown his true strength in his fight with He Kui before, and this move was supposed to change the course of the battle.
The outcome was quite unpredictable. Xiao Yan's terrifying ability to kill the puppets and Xiao Xun'er's depletion of Lu Chen's strength caught him off guard.
So this killing move, which was originally meant to ambush a Dou Zun, had to be used on Xiao Yan. But even so, Xiao Yan not only didn't die, but his injuries were also recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lu Huangtian had to sigh and say, "Xiao Yan, do you know that most of my plans were ruined because of you?"
Hearing Lu Huangtian's words of weakness, Xiao Yan was also a little confused. What was Lu Huangtian doing? Was he preparing to admit defeat?
Then Lu Huangtian took out a puppet from his storage ring. The moment Xiao Yan saw the puppet, his pupils shrank, because the aura that the puppet Lu Huangtian took out exuded was far stronger than any of the other puppets present.
"It's another Dou Zun!" Yao Lao exclaimed in surprise.
Even He Kui felt a pang of bitterness in his heart as he watched Lu Huangtian's actions; the Xuanwen Sect actually had a Dou Zun combatant.
Although they are both one-star Dou Zun, Lu Huangtian is much stronger than me. Just now, I was fully focused on dealing with Lu Huangtian, but he still managed to catch me off guard with his ability to launch a sneak attack.
Moreover, it seems he has no interest in using it on himself, but rather intends to ambush other, more important figures.
If it weren't for Xiao Yan's immense damage to the puppet, no one would have known when he would launch a sneak attack.
The Xuanwen Sect even has four Dou Zun. If it weren't for the amazing girl Xiao Xun'er forcibly preventing Lu Chen from continuing to enter the battlefield, the situation would have been even more unfavorable.
At this moment, the Dou Zun puppet that Lu Huangtian took out could be said to be the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Lu Huangtian looked at the puppet. A puppet without a soul cannot move. As if he had been prepared, Lu Huangtian pinched out a soul from the black bead.
This soul was significantly stronger than the previous powerful souls, and even its physical form was complete.
He was shocked to see Xiao Yan in his soul form, because the soul form was none other than his formidable enemy from the Myriad Beasts Space—Lu Zhi!
At this moment, Lu Zhi was only a soul, and he looked quite weak, with his head being held by Lu Huangtian.
Lu Huangtian laughed and said, "Zhi'er, don't say I'm being biased. Since your younger brother is a Dou Zun, I will make you a Dou Zun too!"
At this moment, Lu Zhi seemed to have lost the ability to speak. He looked at Lu Huangtian with anger, but it had no effect. In the end, he was forcibly pressed into the puppet body by Lu Huangtian.
Xiao Yan noticed that before Lu Zhi entered the puppet, he glanced at him and his eyes were filled with pleading.
The feeling of having one's soul extracted and then entering a puppet's body to become a complete marionette is definitely not pleasant. No wonder Lu Zhi looked at Xiao Yan with pleading eyes, but Xiao Yan had no time to worry about anything else given the current situation.
It was another Dou Zun; everyone was already shocked by the strength displayed by the Xuanwen Sect.
At this moment, a significant number of people have begun to understand Xu Chengze and Shi Ye's choices. Such a vast difference in strength is not a matter of the so-called six major powers standing shoulder to shoulder. The Xuanwen Sect has an absolute power gap with the other five major powers.
The terrifying puppets that had never appeared in the Northwest Region before, Lu Huangtian's secret breakthrough, and the Emperor's Essence Fruit he bought at any cost, all contributed to the terrifying situation of the Xuanwen Sect having four Dou Zun.
"The Alliance of Heroes is going to lose!"
"Definitely, just look at the difference in strength."
"I just don't understand why the Xuanwen Sect didn't go all out from the beginning. That way, the other major powers wouldn't have had any chance to fight back."
"Who knows? Those members of the Heroes Alliance are going to be in big trouble."
Xiao Yan also sensed something was wrong. Xun'er had already dealt with Lu Chen, and at this moment she had no energy left to allow her to do anything else.
Although he seemed to have defeated Shi Ye easily, it was at the cost of exchanging injuries for injuries. There is a world of difference between a nine-star Dou Zong and a Dou Zun.
He Kui was no match for Lu Huangtian either, and he himself was having a particularly hard time dealing with the Dou Zun puppet. His situation was definitely not good.
But the next moment, under Lu Huangtian's command, the Dou Zun puppet moved, its fearless punch aimed directly at He Kui. He Kui's hands turned black, and domineering Dou Qi condensed in them, colliding with the Dou Zun puppet. Undeterred by death, the puppet gained the upper hand for a moment.
Lu Huangtian stared at Xiao Yan and said, "To repay you for the impact you've had on my plans, I've decided to kill you with my own hands!"
Xiao Yan tensed up immediately when Lu Huangtian stared at him. This was no ordinary person but a genuine Dou Zun expert. The next moment, thunder rumbled around Xiao Yan, and he instantly teleported a great distance away.
If Lu Chen could still rely on Yao Lao's enhancement to maneuver around, then getting entangled with Lu Huangtian would be a matter of life and death! Xiao Yan had no intention of fighting Lu Huangtian at all.
Watching Xiao Yan flee, Lu Huangtian stood calmly in place, muttering to himself, "Not slow, no wonder..."
But the next moment, Lu Huangtian moved. He walked around as if taking a leisurely stroll, but the distance created by Xiao Yan continued to shrink.
Even without using combat techniques, a Dou Zun expert's speed is still incredibly terrifying, and the Xuanwen Sect's Hurricane Pattern is not just for show.
Looking at Lu Huangtian chasing after him, Xiao Yan knew that being caught up was only a matter of time. At this moment, Lu Huangtian was just enjoying the pleasure of playing cat and mouse.
However, Xiao Yan dared not relax even more. If Lu Huangtian found it no longer interesting, he might try every means to kill him.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan was also pondering a way to break the deadlock with Yao Lao.
"Teacher, I have a crazy idea!"
