The blue-pink seal pierced through space and struck the old man, and when it was less than a meter away, a huge shadow descended from the sky and finally hit the barrier with a loud bang.
At that moment, space froze for an instant, followed by a loud boom that sounded like a thunderous explosion, echoing throughout the hall.
Some of the people who were fighting upstairs were unprepared, and even their ears were ringing and their heads were dizzy due to the sudden loud noise.
In the lobby, after the loud roar, a wave of energy from the collision of Dou Qi spread out in all directions, and everywhere along the way, all the tables and chairs in the inn, which had not long ago been replaced due to a fight during the day, were smashed to pieces again....
In the center of the energy ripples, the withered old man's face was red and his palms clutched his trembling staff, the thick wood attribute Dou Qi in the staff's body was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As his palms touched the staff, the old man could feel an extremely terrifying and fiery aura eroding the staff coming from the blue and pink jade seal.
The old man could imagine that as soon as the defensive aura he had created with his own Dou Qi and his weapon were consumed, it would be the moment when the fiery aura would explode.
Although he understood it in his heart, he could do nothing about it.
Therefore, he could only watch as the shield in front of him melted and the heat coming from the top of the staff was getting stronger and stronger ...
The barrier only lasted less than ten seconds before it melted completely, and as the dou qi barrier of the wood attribute dissipated. The staff, which should be a good weapon, immediately transformed from dark to fiery red at an extremely fast speed...
"Ahhh!" The old man's palms gripped the staff and there was a strange sound, followed by a muffled grunt of pain.
The staff landed on the ground and hit the stone pavement, and in an instant, the fiery red staff rapidly reduced its temperature, turning into an ordinary iron staff in an instant.
It was obvious that this expensive-looking weapon had become a piece of scrap metal.
At that moment, the withered old man had no time to regret that his weapon had turned into scrap metal, because the moment the weapon left his hand, he clearly saw a blue and pink lightning bolt heading towards him.
'What level of Dou Technique is this, how can it be so strong? Moreover, with the existence of such a terrifying person, how come Scarface didn't report it? Didn't he say that there was no such thing as a Dou Grandmaster or higher?! '
The withered old man, who had no time to dodge, had to grit his teeth and hurriedly mobilize the remaining Dou Qi in his body, then condense a slightly thin Dou Qi armor on the surface of his body, ready to resist.
The blue and pink jade seal, which had darkened slightly, came as expected and struck his chest lightly.
All Xiao Ming heard was a loud high-pitched scream, and the old man who had been hit went flying backwards, slamming hard against the wall and raising a trail of dust that buried him.
"I can't believe he's not dead yet, what a strong vitality."
Xiao Ming swallowed a Qi Return Pill as he looked through the dust in surprise.
Naturally, he knew the terror of the Di Class Intermediate Dou Technique "Sanyan Void Spirit Seal" with which he issued the attack, which was an explosive Dou Technique that required multiple flames to be assembled into a seal, the more flames the more powerful it was, while it was extremely difficult to cultivate.
Had it not been for the experience gained in the simulation, Xiao Ming would not have been able to dispatch this attack so quickly.
Although he had only used two beast flames this time, it did not mean that it was any less powerful, after all, it was a true Di Class Dou Technique that directly drained 30% of the Dou Qi from his body.
The consumption of Dou Qi was enormous.
Under such circumstances, the other party had not yet died, and he could still feel a faint trace of the withered old man's breath.
Sighing, he felt his body recovering from the intense consumption of Dou Qi.
Seeing the dust dissipate a bit, Xiao Ming decided to kill him while he was incapacitated.
With a wave of his palm under his black robe, a meter-long red sword with a fifth rank magic core appeared.
He executed the high-level Xuan Class body Dou Technique given to him by his master earlier, "Shadow Chasing Wind".
With a fierce stomp on the ground, the fiery red energy exploded under his feet, and the pushing force caused by the furious energy fluctuations sent Xiao Ming straight into the black shadow, shooting out towards the center of the dust.
Di Class's low-ranked Dou Technique, Duel of Nourishing Spirits
In midair, Xiao Ming's palm trembled slightly as the tip of his sword thrust violently into the black figure visible in the dust.
In an instant, four fiery red sword blasts containing majestic Qi energy shot out.
"Hu~"
The black figure only shuddered and let out a low, muffled growl, then fell completely silent.
Waiting for the smoke to dissipate, a charred and torn corpse appeared in front of Xiao Ming.
This marked the official death of the five-star Dou Grandmaster, the withered elder!
"Ugh~" Looking at the corpse that still had a look of fear on its face, Xiao Ming lightly exhaled to calm his mind.
It was the first time in his life that he killed someone, and it was probably related to his opponent's human trafficker status, so he didn't feel anything special.
He didn't even feel guilty about the attack, but rather had a sense of satisfaction.
...
Top floor.
Hearing the loud commotion from the floor below, Ding Lao Er and the two enemies he was facing looked at each other.
They paused for a while.
Ding Lao Er knew that his boss was sitting downstairs, but when there was such a big commotion at this time, there must be an unexpected situation and the boss must be fighting fiercely against someone.
The first thing to do is to have a good idea of what was going on.
If he has to fight, he fights, but the fact that there was no more noise made Ding Lao Er feel a little worried.
The battle had ended too quickly, and with all the commotion now, the enemy was probably not easy to deal with.
As he thought this, an uneasy feeling suddenly arose in his heart, and the flames burning all around glowed on his face, changing unpredictably.
Ding Lao Er's opponents were two white-bearded men who had been at the inn during the day.
The reason they did not take advantage of Ding Lao Er's distraction to attack him was because of the Soft Tendon Powder.
The two of them were awakened in time by the fire set by Xiao Ming and took some antidotes for the poison, but not to mention that the effect of the Soft Tendon Powder was not completely gone, even if it was gone, facing Ding Lao Er, who is a first star Dou Grandmaster, the two of them would be overwhelmed.
At this time, the two of them had a tough fight, and they were so injured that if it were not for Ding Lao Er's need to capture them alive, they would have died a long time ago.
On the other hand, Ding Lao Er was dressed in yellow and not a speck of dust had fallen on him.
The two look at each other, although they don't understand why Ding Lao Er has stopped, but it's good that he stopped, so they can also have a breath and wait for the medicine to pass so they can regain their strength…
"Don't delay any longer, kill them all."
Under the restlessness of his heart, Ding Lao Er did not hesitate any longer and ordered his men loudly without turning his head.
"But, the boss said he wanted them alive. This is all to be exchanged with the Blood Clan, if we can't get the goods by then, we will be..." said a man in the Dou Master realm hesitantly.
"Shut up and do as I say! I suspect something has happened to the boss downstairs, the men we already have captured should be enough to deal with the Blood Clan, don't delay things!"
"...Agreed."
These inn dealers had no more scruples in their attacks, and their opponents fell to the ground dead with ease.
Those who finished off their opponents also joined the other unresolved battles to help the others settle the fight quickly.
"Shadowless Frenzy Blade."
Ding Lao Er took a slash at the neck of one of the white-bearded elders, quickly finishing him off, took another slash to finish off his companion, and, turning back, said to those who had already finished their battles.
"Go, go to the floor below!"
