**
This kind of situation—if witnessed by someone with weak strength—would certainly reveal nothing unusual.
But Lin Feng, a sixth-tier alchemist, possessed exceptionally powerful soul strength.
Naturally, he had already sensed that the other party was approaching at full speed.
Gazing at Yan Luotian, whose aura was no different from Su Qian during the great battle at the Inner Academy, Lin Feng immediately understood—this man was going all out.
He didn't dare to be careless and instantly activated his fastest speed.
"Three Thousand Lightning Movement: Three Thousand Lightning!"
With a shout in his heart, electric sparks burst beneath Lin Feng's feet.
His speed suddenly rose to a terrifying level.
Coupled with the support of the Purple Cloud Wings, even when battling, his speed was in no way inferior to Yan Luotian's!
Over the past few years, Lin Feng had cultivated Three Thousand Lightning Movement to its highest level, and this was the first time he had used it in actual combat.
Judging from its performance today, this signature movement technique of Wind Lightning Pavilion truly offered amplification far superior to that of the Sky Bird Nine Flying Wings, which were crafted from a Rank 6 flying magic beast.
"What level is this movement-type Dou Technique? It's even more terrifying in effect than my Golden Goose Sect's High-Grade Black Class technique, Soaring Goose Skystep!"
Watching Lin Feng accelerate to a speed nearly matching his own, Yan Luotian's brow furrowed tightly.
One of the reasons he had gained fame across several nearby empires was because of his peerless speed among those of the same level.
Yet now, someone had actually surpassed him in terms of movement technique. This made him feel threatened.
At the same time, the greed in his heart exploded wildly.
His current speed already dominated the nearby empires.
But if he could acquire this kid's movement Dou Technique, then his speed would surely undergo yet another explosive leap.
Add to that the Rank 7 flying magic beast wings promised by Protector Kong, and the mysterious power-boosting secret technique the boy had just used…
He might even be able to contend with high-level Dou Zong experts!
Thinking this, the Goose Feather Sword in Yan Luotian's hand suddenly emitted a dazzling golden glow. He raised his arm and slashed down toward Lin Feng across the void.
Several golden sword beams formed from Dou Qi exploded into existence under his control and shot toward Lin Feng at blinding speed.
Seeing these razor-sharp sword beams, Lin Feng dared not be careless. The greenish-blue flame within his body surged forth.
In an instant, under the aid of Flame Condensing Art, the Heavenly Flame transformed into several fire pythons, charging directly at the sword beams.
Accompanied by deafening explosions, Dou Qi and flame scattered across the sky.
Both of their attacks dissipated into nothingness.
"You've attacked long enough. It's my turn now!"
Staring at the faded remnants of their attacks, a cluster of Glazed Lotus Heart Flame appeared in Lin Feng's hand.
The flame squirmed and twisted, soon condensing into a long spear made of Heavenly Flame.
Lin Feng casually twirled the spear a few times, electricity flickering under his feet.
The wings on his back—now black in color due to the fusion with the Purple Cloud Wings—trembled fiercely.
His figure transformed into a streak of black shadow, launching furiously toward Yan Luotian.
As the long spear in his hand danced wildly, the tip would occasionally stab out at exceedingly tricky angles, forcing the enemy to react.
While Lin Feng and Queen Medusa were fully focused on their respective opponents, some of the Dou Wang and Dou Huang-level fighters nearby couldn't help but glance toward their battle from time to time.
Everyone knew clearly in their hearts—
The outcome of this war would ultimately depend on the victories or defeats of the Dou Zong-level powerhouses.
After all, if the strongest fighters lost...
Then those like them, should they keep fighting, would only be offering up their heads for free.
Yet Lin Feng—merely a Dou Huang—was actually managing to hold off a genuine Dou Zong powerhouse like Yan Luotian.
This scene truly caused many of the stronger fighters to drop their jaws in shock.
Under normal circumstances, for a Dou Huang to contend with a Dou Zong,
they would have to be at the peak of Dou Huang and even then, only if several of them joined forces using special methods.
But Lin Feng—not only was he not at the peak of Dou Huang, he was fighting alone.
And yet, under such conditions, he was able to hold back a Two-Star Dou Zong—even one who was skilled in speed, no less. This was something the surrounding experts had never witnessed in their lives.
However, the Three Mulan Elders of the Mulan Valley, who were currently being ferociously suppressed by Queen Medusa, were extremely unwilling to see this scene unfold.
At this moment, earth-shaking bestial roars filled with primitive, wild aura were erupting from their bodies.
Above each of the three stood phantoms of a lion, tiger, and bear, forming a mystical formation that balanced offense and defense.
The Dou Qi from the three interwove into one; the terrifying aura emitted from a single one of them was not much weaker than Yan Luotian's in the distance.
However, although their technique could allow one of them to temporarily possess Dou Zong-level power, they were still far inferior to Queen Medusa.
And so, under her fierce and merciless assaults,
the three could only fall into a disadvantaged position, barely managing to hold on.
Among them, one of the old men, glancing toward Yan Luotian who was still entangled with Lin Feng, shouted loudly:
"Yan Luotian! You're a Two-Star Dou Zong fighting a Dou Huang—how are you still not done?! Hurry up and take care of that brat! We can't hold out much longer!"
"Yelling won't help. This kid isn't your average Dou Huang. Give me a bit more time—I'll finish him off as soon as I can."
Hearing the elder's urgent cry, Yan Luotian's brows furrowed tightly,
and he replied in a gloomy tone.
His gaze toward Lin Feng grew even colder.
"Brat, this sect master has no more time to waste playing with you—die!"
With a chilling shout, the golden glow from his Goose Feather Sword suddenly intensified.
"Mid-Grade Earth Class Dou Technique: Heavenstride Sword!"
As his soft yet resonant chant rang out through the sky, the Dou Qi condensed upon his sword surged to terrifying levels.
The immense Dou Qi gathering together even caused the space around the blade to ripple faintly.
Since Lin Feng had obtained information about the top experts of the two great empires from the Snake-people Tribe just yesterday, he immediately recognized the frightening technique Yan Luotian was preparing.
This must be one of Yan Luotian's signature skills—Heavenstride Sword.
He didn't dare to take it lightly.
Lin Feng dissipated the flame spear in his hand, brought his palms together, and began to rapidly form a series of mysterious hand seals.
As the seals changed, the temperature around him soared dramatically!
"Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique!"
The Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique—a supreme Dou Technique passed down by Tian Huo Zun Zhe.
Since Lin Feng had learned it under the elder's personal guidance, this would be the first time he ever used it in actual combat.
Today, he would finally see if this Dou Technique could withstand Yan Luotian's famed sword skill!
As Lin Feng's mental shout fell, the seal in his hand suddenly froze.
He formed a gripping motion with his palm, and a nearly invisible flame slowly rose from the center of his hand.
As the formless flame emerged, it quickly expanded, then began to wriggle in a strange and eerie manner.
Within moments, it transformed into a phantom flame wolf, roughly twenty meters in size.
The Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique could use five types of flames to form
five flame beasts—a wolf, leopard, lion, tiger, and flood dragon.
If all five were summoned, one could form the Five Ring Flame Array.
Unfortunately, with Lin Feng's current strength, he could at most use two Heavenly Flames and three beast flames to piece together the Five Ring Flame Array.
As a result, the technique's power only slightly surpassed that of an Mid-Grade Earth Class Dou Technique.
