Listening to everyone's scolding.
Huoxing Taoist Priest smiled awkwardly and did not dare to refute anything.
In fact, his heart was similar to what the old man in green said. He was indeed a little selfish.
Because he wanted to see how Xu Yan's actual combat was like. After all, the two of them were going to the Path of Transition together. If Xu Yan was only the kind of person who only had strength but no actual combat experience, then it would be troublesome!
However, his own strength was not enough. The gap between him and Xu Yan was too big. There was no way to test it.
Therefore, he took the opportunity of this challenge to pull all these old men out and test Xu Yan's skill with him!
Xu Yan also understood the Huoxing Taoist's idea. However, Xu Yan did not care. He had experienced a lot of battles since he was weak. Although most of the battles were one-sided, he had also gained a lot of combat experience.
This combat experience was enough for Xu Yan to perfectly display his full strength when facing the enemy!
"Since it's already like this, then let's go together and test Michiyo Akagumo's strength!" One of the white-haired old men said.
Everyone nodded and agreed with the Huoxing Taoist's suggestion.
"Fellow Daoist Scarlet Cloud, let's fight in the air. We can use our skills in the air!" Daoist Huo Xing shouted to Xu Yan.
Xu Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go up now!"
After saying that, Xu Yan flew into the sky and stopped not far away from the eight cultivators.
"Michiyo Akagumo, because your strength is much stronger than us, we are not going to test you. We are going to use our full strength!" Huoxing Taoist reminded.
"Okay, go ahead. I will pay attention!" Xu Yan nodded and said.
After the Great Vehicle Stage cultivators below had retreated to a safe distance, the two sides began to display their aura.
Xu Yan still mobilized his mental power and released that terrifying pressure!
On the other hand, the eight people in front of him began to exude a mysterious aura. This aura circulated around their bodies, making them temporarily immune to Xu Yan's spiritual pressure.
Xu Yan understood what was on their bodies.
In the past few days, Xu Yan had read a lot of books in the library of the Five Elements Saint Sect. He already had some understanding of the Individual Immortals in this world.
Loose Immortals were actually still at the peak of the Mahayana Realm. The reason why they were called Loose Immortals and Half-step Immortals was because they had already comprehended the embryonic form of their own Dao path!
And now, the mysterious aura emanating from Huoxing Taoist and the others was the aura of their embryonic Dao path!
This was Xu Yan's first time facing an Outerworld's limit that had comprehended the embryonic form of his own path, so he did not dare to be careless.
He sent a wisp of his consciousness into the little person in his mind so that he could control his spiritual power faster to ensure that nothing went wrong.
At this time, the people in front of him were also ready. Their bodies emitted different colored lights, and then they attacked Xu Yan from all directions.
Xu Yan had also seen this move in the library. It was a state in which a Loose Immortal cultivator used the embryonic form of their Dao path and their spiritual power together.
This state could greatly increase their speed and spiritual power strength, temporarily doubling their battle strength!
However, just this level of strength was not enough to catch Xu Yan's attention.
With a thought from Xu Yan, six gravity walls that were tens of meters tall appeared in six directions around Xu Yan.
They released a powerful repulsive force and sent the people who were rushing over flying. They were unable to get close to Xu Yan at all.
Seeing this, the old man in green who was sent flying pulled out the saber at his waist. He poured in his strengthened spiritual power and slashed with all his strength. A blade light that was hundreds of meters wide rushed towards Xu Yan.
The other half of the Huoxing Taoist also reached out and condensed a dark red fireball with a diameter of hundreds of meters, and threw it at Xu Yan.
"This kind of attack is indeed far more powerful than an ordinary peak Mahayana Stage, but it's still far from enough for me!"
As he spoke, Xu Yan stretched out his hand and grabbed in the direction of the attacks!
The air in the two directions was crazily compressed and then collapsed. Finally, two five-meter-wide slowly rotating black holes gradually appeared and crazily devoured the surrounding space!
The blade light and fireball that were attacking Xu Yan entered the gravitational range of the black holes and were directly pulled by the strong gravitational force. They were then sucked in and disappeared.
In contrast, the size of the black holes increased by a lot!
Seeing this, the eight people besieging him frowned.
"Michiyo Akagumo can actually create black holes out of thin air. This is really unexpected." The Water Element Taoist, whose body was emitting blue light, could not help but exclaim.
"It seems that long-range harassment and stamina depletion tactics are useless. This black hole is getting stronger the more we fight!"
The Huoxing Taoist nodded and agreed with the Water Element Taoist.
"Since long-range attacks are ineffective and close-range attacks can't get close, let's just use our ultimate move to determine the winner!"
With that, everyone nodded and gathered together again.
The eight of them stood in a row and continuously increased the strength of their auras. The light on their bodies became brighter and brighter until each of them reached their limit.
Then, the eight of them intertwined with the light of their powers, forming a rainbow-like light.
"Michiyo Akagumo, the next move is our ultimate move. Fellow cultivator, be careful!"
After the Huoxing Taoist finished speaking, the spiritual energy of the eight people burst out and fused together to form a rainbow-colored light mirror, facing Xu Yan in the distance.
Seeing the light mirror formed, Xu Yan also became cautious. He waved his hand and blocked the two black holes in front of him. Then, the six gravitational walls also blocked in front of Xu Yan. At the same time, Xu Yan raised his palms and two lines of force that were half a meter thick appeared above his palms. Then, they continuously split back and forth!
Yes, Xu Yan used the strengthened version of the Great Decomposition Technique just in case!
The strengthened version of the Great Decomposition Technique used a bigger line of force, so the number of lines of force that could be split out would be more and more powerful!
The eight people opposite him saw that Xu Yan was ready. They looked at each other and then gathered all the spiritual energy in their bodies and poured it into the rainbow-colored light mirror that they had condensed.
After the rainbow-colored light mirror received the injection of spiritual energy, it became abnormally bright. After a few seconds of energy accumulation, a light wave shot out from the mirror and rushed towards Xu Yan!
Looking at the light wave rushing towards him, Xu Yan urged the two black holes to meet it.
The light wave hit the first black hole and made a deafening roar!
The light wave and the black hole continued to resist and annihilate each other. Finally, the black hole was the first to be unable to withstand the light wave. Its rotation rhythm was disrupted by the light wave and it was automatically annihilated.
However, the light wave that destroyed a black hole was slightly weaker and its color was a little dimmer.
The speed of the light wave was very fast and it directly hit the black hole behind it. After another collision, the second black hole was also disrupted by the light wave and was automatically annihilated.
Unexpectedly, the light wave came and annihilated two black holes in a row in such a short time. Xu Yan's face showed surprise.
However, it was limited to surprise!
