BTTH: From Genius to Invincible

Chapter 191: Borrowing Fire



"Medusa, if you had truly evolved and reached the Rank 7 magical beast level, I would indeed have to be wary of you. But right now, you're merely a half-step Dou Ancestor. The gap between you and a true Dou Ancestor isn't something that can be bridged by bloodline alone!" Yun Shan's shoulders trembled slightly as he dispelled Medusa's force. He stared coldly at Medusa, who stood protectively before Xiao Yan.

Suddenly, his hands rapidly formed seals, and his body began to shake violently. A strange, black figure emerged from within him as he trembled.

Medusa's delicate brows furrowed as she observed the emerging black figure. She could clearly sense that this black figure was no illusion; it contained an immense amount of energy.

And it possessed the strength of a peak Dou Emperor!

'An Avatar with the strength of a Dou Emperor...'

Xiao Yan curled his lips. This Avatar wasn't just any ordinary technique. He could tell that it infused powerful Spiritual Strength, somewhat resembling a combination of a soul body and Dou Technique.

There was no need to even think about it. This was undoubtedly a Dou Technique from the Hall of Souls that allowed one to separate an avatar from oneself.

Queen Medusa instantly turned, intending to intercept the Avatar, but Yun Shan's main body eerily appeared before her, blocking her path. The Avatar flew toward Xiao Yan at extreme speed, with powerful Dou Qi condensed in its hands. It intended to first shatter Xiao Yan's palanquin and then capture him. But at that moment, an elderly figure appeared before Xiao Yan.

"Sigh, your medicinal pills are really not easy to earn," Jia Xing Tian exchanged a palm strike with Yun Shan's Avatar. The terrifying energy instantly wreaked havoc, causing Xiao Yan's palanquin to sway violently from side to side.

Only when Xiao Yan saw Jia Xing Tian intervene did he retract the Green Lotus Core Flame and the Ten Thousand Beast Flame's fire seeds back into his body.

That Jia Xing Tian would step forward to protect him was something Xiao Yan had not expected. After all, he couldn't currently produce the Mixed Bone Molding Pill, so his alchemy promise to the imperial family was, for the most part, just a verbal agreement.

To offend the Misty Cloud Sect, which now had a Dou Ancestor, for the sake of a verbal

promise didn't seem worthwhile no matter how one thought about it.

However, upon careful consideration, Jia Xing Tian's actions made perfect sense.

If Yun Shan hadn't broken through to the Dou Ancestor realm, the Misty Cloud Sect would just be a fierce tiger capable of threatening the Jia Ma Imperial Family. But now, things were different. Yun Shan had broken through to Dou Ancestor! One had to know that there wasn't a single Dou Ancestor in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

The strongest cultivator and the strongest alchemist were both in the Misty Cloud Sect. The Misty Cloud Sect was no longer just a threat to the Jia Ma Imperial Family; they could easily overthrow the imperial family's rule at any time.

Therefore, what Jia Xing Tian must do now was to align himself with Xiao Yan. Even if he couldn't fully win over Xiao Yan, he had to let the Misty Cloud Sect know that the Jia Ma Imperial Family was tied to Xiao Yan, that they were in the same boat.

Otherwise, if Yun Shan decided to reshape the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Yan would have no reason to help the imperial family against the Misty Cloud Sect.

At the very least, if the Misty Cloud Sect sought to settle accounts with the imperial family later, they would have to carefully consider the variables that were Xiao Yan and Medusa. A thunderous boom rang out as Jia Xing Tian forced back Yun Shan's Spiritual Avatar.

"Jia Xing Tian! Since you insist on interfering, don't blame me for disregarding our old friendship!" Yun Shan's Avatar said in a heavy voice. It seemed to possess Yun Shan's intelligence. Seeing Jia Xing Tian stepping up to block him, his expression instantly turned cold as he shouted sharply.

Jia Xing Tian gave a bitter smile and sighed. He rapidly gathered Dou Qi in his hands and said, "If you were still a peak Dou Emperor or even a half-step Dou Ancestor, I might not want to get involved in these muddy waters. But now, you're too strong. Strong enough to make the entire Jia Ma Empire restless day and night."

In an instant, the peak Dou Emperor Jia Xing Tian and Yun Shan's Avatar were locked in battle. Naturally, the Avatar couldn't possess the full strength of the main body, so for the moment, it couldn't overpower Jia Xing Tian.

In the highest reaches of the sky, Yun Shan's main body let out an angry shout as his face turned dark and cold. A terrifying aura surged from his body as his hands rapidly formed seals. His right hand waved.

"Large Wind Handprint!"

An enormous energy handprint nearly several dozen meters in size fiercely smashed toward Medusa.

"Hmph, consuming a large amount of Dou Qi and Spiritual Strength to create an Avatar seems to have weakened you quite a bit," Queen Medusa sneered upon seeing the enormous wind

energy handprint.

Her palm flashed with seven-colored brilliance as the energy handprint smashed down, and a seven-colored divine light blasted out from her palm.

Boom!!!

Two terrifying energy shockwaves exploded. Dazzling light poured down from the sky, forcing everyone to shut their eyes.

The Misty Cloud Sect disciples stared dumbly at the sky on the devastated square below. Although their strength was insufficient to fully comprehend how intense the battle between Yun Shan and Medusa truly was, they could still glimpse it based on the energy fluctuations produced by the lightning-fast clashes of the two figures.

Yun Shan felt like a thorn had pierced his heart when he heard Medusa look down on him despite having reached the Dou Ancestor realm. His eyes turned crimson!

No one knew how much he had sacrificed to reach the Dou Ancestor realm!

"Even if I've consumed some Spiritual Strength and Dou Qi, I am still a true Dou Ancestor! Not something a mere half-step Dou Ancestor like you can compare to!! Great Sorrow Wind- Rending Palm!"

After exchanging several rounds with Medusa, Yun Shan discovered that he was actually unable to defeat her, instantly setting his anger ablaze! His eyes narrowed slightly before he let out a deep shout.

The light in his palm suddenly flared as his shout fell. Then, an enormous energy palm dozens of meters in size appeared strangely, carrying a fierce gale as it ruthlessly slapped toward

Queen Medusa.

Medusa's pupils contracted as she sensed the surging energy around her. Although magical beasts had stronger physical bodies and longer lifespans than humans, their Dou Techniques were absolutely inferior. Facing a Di Class Dou Technique used by a Dou Ancestor, her expression became extremely solemn.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

At this moment, a somewhat lazy voice reached her ears: "Your Majesty, this thing is borrowed and must be returned."

Sitting on the palanquin, Xiao Yan smiled slightly and waved his hand. An emerald green fire cluster transformed into a stream of light and flew toward Queen Medusa.

He saw Yun Shan actually using a Di Class Dou Technique and didn't bother talking about fairness. He directly lent the fire seed of the Green Lotus Core Flame to Medusa!

Medusa looked at the beautiful green flame floating before her like a lotus. She snorted lightly and said, "Hmph, this was originally mine to begin with."

She reached out her left hand and gently held up the Green Lotus Heart Flame. The green light illuminated her stunning features, making her look as beautiful as a celestial maiden.

Her eyes focused, and she instantly used her Dou Qi to drive the Green Lotus Core Flame. In the next second, endless green flames surged out from the fire cluster, gushing forth like a torrential sea. The sea of green flames instantly enveloped her entire body.

The sea of green flames transformed into a green fire python. Facing Yun Shan's Di Class Dou Technique, Medusa also struck out with a palm.

Boom!!!

Under the gaze of countless eyes in the square, the two attacks, both containing extremely terrifying power, finally collided with a thunderous impact. At this moment, the ear-piercing sound of the energy explosion echoed across the sky like a thunderclap, causing everyone's

ears to experience brief deafness.

The incomparably terrifying high temperature of the Green Lotus Core Flame seemed about

to melt the sky itself!

The temperature on the square below instantly rose to an unbearable level!

The power erupting from the Green Lotus Core Flame driven by the half-step Dou Ancestor Medusa's Dou Qi was the true might of a Heavenly Flame. Compared to this, Xiao Yan's Dou Grandmaster level Dou Qi driving it was as weak as a gas stove.
