Chapter 170: Showing Might, Dou Saint Skeleton
Seeing themselves suppressed, the slit-eyed elder glanced at the Dou Zun from the Soul Hall and said, "Brother Zhaixing, this person is an enemy of our Nine Nether Earth Python Clan. We seek your assistance, and our clan will surely reward you generously!"
Hearing this, Zhaixing Old Ghost hesitated briefly before commanding his subordinates, "Attack together! Capture him for me!"
"Boom!"
As soon as he spoke, several immense Dou Qi auras erupted from the Soul Hall's Dou Zuns, joining forces with the experts from the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan, pressing down on Xiao Tian.
"Hmph!"
Xiao Tian snorted coldly and said, "Soul Hall, I haven't come after you yet, and here you are causing trouble. Since you've stepped up, I'll deal with you all at once!"
As he spoke, his hands rapidly formed intricate seals, initiating the Great Desolate Imprisoning Sky Finger technique.
"Boom!"
In the next moment, five beams of energy burst from his body, tearing through the void, exuding an ancient aura from the nothingness. These five beams converged, forming an immensely ancient and gigantic hand. This hand was a rustic yellow, marked by the erosion of time and furrows, resembling a farmer's hand. Yet, this rough hand emanated an overwhelming, earth-shaking power.
"Crack, crack, crack!"
As the ancient hand took shape, the surrounding space began to collapse on a large scale. Within the collapsing void, a vague figure stood with hands behind his back. No one could see his features clearly, but his presence alone silenced everything, making heaven and earth seem humble.
"What powerful energy! Could this be a heavenly-tier Dou Technique?"
"What is that? Why do I feel an urge to worship it?"
"Who is this person?"
As they gazed at the ancient hand and the vague figure, everyone's faces turned pale. Some of the weaker ones even began trembling, barely able to stop themselves from kneeling.
"Damn it! This must be a heavenly-tier Dou Technique. If I'd known, I wouldn't have meddled in this mess!"
Zhaixing Old Ghost cursed inwardly and shouted to his people, "Attack with full force, or we're all dead!"
"Netherworld Star Hand!"
Zhaixing Old Ghost instantly unleashed his strongest technique, distorting the space around them as a starry giant hand reached out to grab Xiao Tian.
"Soul-Seizing Chains!"
"Netherworld Poison Claw!"
"Extinction Slash!"
In an instant, over a dozen Dou Zuns combined their strongest attacks. Facing these attacks, the vague figure in the void slowly extended his indistinct hand and pressed down gently. The energy of heaven and earth boiled, and the ancient hand descended like Mount Tai.
"Boom!"
The combined Dou Techniques of over a dozen Dou Zuns were obliterated under the ancient hand's pressure. Then, the ancient hand continued its descent, crashing onto the ground with undiminished force.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
As soon as it touched the ground, Zhaixing Old Ghost and his followers' bodies exploded into blood mist. Xiao Tian, intending for Qing Lin to enslave the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan members, only severely injured them without killing.
He sealed the Dou Qi of the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan's Dou Zuns and handed them to Little Marten.
"Gulp!"
Seeing Xiao Tian wipe out the Soul Hall's Dou Zuns and seal the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan's Dou Zuns with a single move, everyone swallowed hard.
While they were stunned, a few drops of blood splattered onto the Dou Saint skeleton and were absorbed. Instantly, the jade-white skeleton on the stone throne trembled slightly. Two faint blood-red lights flickered in its empty eye sockets.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the Dou Saint skeleton lifted its head, letting out an earth-shattering roar. The terrifying roar transformed into tangible sound waves, sweeping out from the stone throne like a storm.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Caught off guard, the Dou Zong within the hall exploded. Even the Dou Zuns were severely injured.
"What's happening?"
Everyone looked at the Dou Saint skeleton in fear, unsure of what was going on.
"The Dou Saint isn't completely dead! Run!"
Xiao Tian shouted and gave Little Marten a signal. They quickly left. After exiting the main hall, Xiao Tian sent the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan's Dou Zuns into the space gate and hid in the space layer with Little Marten, circling back to the main hall.
By then, the Dou Saint skeleton had chased after the large groups. However, a few people, like Xiao Tian, had returned.
Xiao Tian said to the others, "I'm taking all the treasures here. Who objects?"
Everyone was resentful but dared not speak out. Xiao Tian's heavenly-tier Dou Technique could destroy them all. Eventually, Xiao Tian collected the ten light clusters hovering in mid-air.
"Intruders, die!"
Absorbing the Dou Techniques and skills seemed to trigger the Dou Saint skeleton. It abandoned its pursuit and returned to the main hall.
Seeing the Dou Saint skeleton return, the Dou Zuns reluctantly left.
"It has only a remnant soul. Destroy it, and it can't move."
Xiao Tian said calmly. His soul power surged, forming a soul sword that struck the remnant soul before it could attack. Although powerful, the Dou Saint was not primarily skilled in soul techniques, and the remnant soul couldn't withstand Xiao Tian's soul attack.
With the remnant soul obliterated, the red light in the skeleton's eye sockets vanished. Xiao Tian's eyes gleamed with desire as he looked at the floating jade-white skeleton.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the void twisted, and a figure appeared, rushing towards the Dou Saint skeleton, attempting to snatch it.
"Courting death!"
Before Xiao Tian could act, Little Marten extended a claw and obliterated the figure.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Tian then swiftly collected the Dou Saint skeleton. With all necessary items from the ruins secured, he looked at the ground-bound puppets, erasing their soul imprints.
He then took these puppets, each possessing Dou Zun-level strength. Better to take them than leave them behind.
