Chapter 5131 Preparing the Trump Card

Chapter 5131 Preparing the Trump Card
Xiao Yan had never felt this way in any of his previous battles.

This may be the most dangerous battle he has ever faced in the world of mountains and seas, and it is currently unknown who the enemy is or where they come from.

Is it within this hidden treasure?

Or perhaps it was a powerful figure sent by Taixu, who was there to kill him again.

No matter where the crisis comes from, Xiao Yan must be prepared to fight to the death at any time. Running away will not solve the problem; the only solution is killing!
Xiao Yan has already refined a considerable amount of both types of pills, which should be enough for everyone. Of course, pills are only effective in emergencies, and their effectiveness cannot be guaranteed.

However, before entering, Xiao Yan had one more thing to do.

His gaze fell on the Mermaid King Xingting. This man's strength did not seem particularly remarkable. Among the crowd, although he was not the weakest, he gave people a sense of no threat.

The fact that this merman king was rescued from the forbidden eye by Dog Eyes makes it hard not to suspect his identity.

Therefore, Xiao Yan added some ingredients that weren't originally in the pills he gave him. If there were no problems, that would be fine; but if there were any problems, those ingredients might be able to play a role.

Xiao Yan distributed all the pills he had refined and instructed that the Soul-Controlling and Spirit-Guarding Pills should be taken in advance.

After receiving the pill, Xuanhuang swallowed it without any hesitation.

Long Yitian Zangwang had no doubts and swallowed it all, while Xiao Yan's gaze turned towards the direction of the crack.

"A total of three thousand beings went in, but not many of them were immortal gods, and some of them stayed in the surrounding area instead of going in."

Xiao Yan's voice slowly drifted out. Although he was refining medicine, the soul power of the Void Realm was constantly enveloping this place, and all beings that entered were swept over by his soul power.

"To be precise, a total of 3,521 people entered. I can sense about 20 of them as immortal gods, and only two are at the third level or above," Xuanhuang then gave more precise data.

Xuanhuang may seem carefree, but he is not like that at all. His cheerful personality does not mean that he is rough inside. On the contrary, he is extremely observant.

"The top-tier experts in the Mountain and Sea World haven't arrived yet, have they, Brother Xuanhuang?" Xiao Yan asked.

"Not yet. Each of the three divine races has an ancestor at the fifth level of the realm. I wonder if they will come," Xuanhuang said.

"The Three Gods Clan? I encountered them in the Mirror Realm and even killed Tian Luolan of the Senluo Demon Wood Clan. I wonder if they were their ancestors?" Xiao Yan said.

"Brother Xiao Yan killed Tian Luo Lan? In that case, the Senluo Demon Wood Clan will probably not only be unable to come, but the status of the Three God Clans will also be in jeopardy." Xuan Huang was somewhat surprised.

"I never expected Brother Xiao Yan to have entered the Mirror Realm. It was a hunting ground created by the Three Gods Clan, mainly used to imprison humans and other races, supplying them with food."

Xuanhuang said, but Xiao Yan was unhappy about it. Although this was the world of mountains and seas, it was still a human race and should have nothing to do with him.

"Brother Xuanhuang, could you step in and resolve this matter within the Mirror Realm? In the world of mountains and seas, we still hope to provide a place for the human race to live. After all, whether human, demon, beast, or monster, there is a distinction between good and evil. Leaving a glimmer of hope is also leaving a glimmer of hope for our own world."

Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, but he had promised Xuan Yuanjue that if he could stay in the Mountain and Sea World, he would not leave with Xiao Yan.

"This is easy to handle, Brother Xiao Yan, just tell me."

Xuanhuang smiled. The Dragon Clan's prestige in the Mountain and Sea World was beyond doubt. However, before Xiao Yan arrived, the Dragon Clan turned a blind eye to these matters.

"Wait a little longer," Xiao Yan said, then closed his eyes.

He entered the Zichen Void Spirit Tower and first arrived at the fourth level of the Illusory Dream, where he practiced the use and purpose of the Soul Suppressing Banner and thoroughly understood all the methods he possessed.

The Soul-Suppressing Banner is mainly used to suppress and store souls, but its key ability is not the cultivation techniques used in its creation.

Xiao Yan has been using it primarily for absorbing and suppressing souls, and the number of souls contained within is in the tens of thousands, in addition to the souls from Taixu before.

However, those souls were too weak and could not be used for offense. Most importantly, they absorbed the divided souls of the Void Lord and many souls of the Fate-Holding Clan.

With the addition of these powerful souls, the Soul-Suppressing Banner's soul power grows stronger and stronger, allowing it to be used to cast restrictions by directly drawing upon its soul power.

However, Xiao Yan's understanding of the restriction techniques was insufficient. Even if he understood them with his dog eyes, it would be difficult to use them without his own enlightenment.

However, in the realm of illusion and fantasy, it constantly transforms and relies on its own power to perform its functions.

Through enlightenment gained from the illusion of nothingness, one can protect oneself with ten thousand souls and use them to activate the Soul-Suppressing Banner, thereby unleashing Soul-Splitting Thunder. Weaker souls can be directly destroyed, while stronger ones can be suppressed.

There is also the strongest form, which is to detonate ten thousand souls by using the Soul-Suppressing Banner, which can create an annihilation power that destroys a large number of souls over a wide area.

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Although it could only be used once, the power it generated was incredibly astonishing.

Xiao Yan then went to the Practical Combat Gate to use the Soul-Suppressing Banner and feel its power.

Everything didn't take up too much of Xiao Yan's time, so he returned to the Void Dream Layer, still trying to find the method to unleash the Annihilation Flame.

This number one flame source, which had been dormant within Xiao Yan's body, was originally one of his most powerful techniques, but now it was unusable.

However, it wasn't entirely unused; it appeared at crucial moments, when the battle reached its limits, and unleashed astonishing power.

Moreover, he has never been able to grasp its true meaning and does not understand why he cannot use its power.

In the void and dreamlike realm, Xiao Yan was able to unleash the Annihilation Flame and unleash tremendous power. After arriving at the Practical Combat Sect, he was also able to use it.

"No problem..."

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and immediately stretched out his palm, trying to activate the Annihilation Flame, but found that he still could not use it.

"That's really strange."

The flame essence given to Xiao Yan by the Immortal Flame Demoness has already merged into his body, becoming a part of Xiao Yan's flame essence.

"No matter what, we must understand why we cannot use the Annihilation Flame!"

The Annihilation Flame, dormant within Xiao Yan's body, seemed to be in a deep sleep, and no matter how Xiao Yan called out to it, he received no response.

He immediately raised his hand and waved it, and three flame origins given to Xiao Yan by the Immortal Flame Demoness appeared. He planned to merge them all into the Annihilation Flame.

The Immortal Flame Demoness once told Xiao Yan that although they had weakened, they could still help him improve his own Flame Heart to a higher level.

If it were integrated into other Flame Hearts, it might indeed achieve a higher level or develop stronger flame techniques. However, for the upcoming battle, the terrifying destructive power of the Annihilation Flame seems to be more important!
