The tension in the air was palpable. The defeat of Wu Hao was only the beginning. His failure had sent ripples through the enemy ranks, but it was also a signal to the Soul Palace that the Xiao family would not go down without a fight. Now, with Protector Wu and Protector Shen leading the charge, the storm was about to hit full force. But little did they know—Xiao Yan had already orchestrated their destruction from the very start.
Wu Hao's eyes burned with fury and frustration. His defeat had been swift and humiliating, but it was only a small setback for the Soul Palace. Grabbing the signal device, he called for reinforcements, his voice hoarse with anger.
"Come! Protectors Wu and Shen, it's time to end this!"
On the other side, Xiao Yan stood with a calm yet resolute expression, fully aware of the upcoming clash. With a slight motion, his eyes gleamed with fiery determination.
"It's time," Xiao Yan murmured, activating the Three Transformation Fire Technique. The modified version of his technique—a perfect fusion of the Nine Heavenly Transformations of Fires—unleashed an overwhelming power. The third level of his transformation, the Tri-Lotus Angry Buddha Transformation, erupted around him, radiating an immense aura of fiery energy, and instantly propelling him to Dou Zong 3-stars.
Xiao Chen, standing beside him, summoned his own technique. The Water Nine-Turn Transformation Technique, perfected by his Sign-In rewards and honed through rigorous practice, surged to life. The Tri-Headed, Six-Armed Atlantean Water God Transformation manifested in full, with water elements drawn from the Heavenly Waters he had mastered, ascending him to Dou Zong 3-stars as well.
The ground trembled beneath their feet, their power a testament to their incredible growth. With Xiao Huang (the White Skydestroyer Lion) now at Dou Zong 3-stars as well, the trio was ready to strike.
The first to charge were the Mulan Empire's forces, led by Protector Wu. But before they could move, Mu Lie, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Mei—acting with impeccable coordination—established the Trapping Killing Formation. The formation quickly solidified, its boundaries glowing with a powerful energy that sealed the Mulan Empire's fate. Xiao Yan, Xiao Chen, and Xiao Huang were at the core, guiding the flow of energy, ensuring that no escape was possible.
Protector Wu, realizing he had been surrounded, scowled in disbelief. "This... this isn't possible!"
But his words were cut short as the formation's energy tightened. Mu Lie's Array Master techniques, combined with the strength of the Xiao family's alliance, sealed the fate of the Mulan Empire's forces.
In a matter of moments, the Mulan forces were wiped out, and Protector Wu, along with his allies, was left struggling against the overwhelming power of the formation.
As the Mulan forces fell, the Chu Yun Empire and the Golden Geese Sect launched their own attacks, hoping to tip the scales in their favor. But they too fell into Xiao Yan's trap.
In the distance, Medusa and Yun Shan moved in swiftly, their forces joining with the rest of the Xiao family and their allies. Hai Bodong and the Mu Clan powerhouses flanked their enemies, creating an impenetrable barrier of destruction.
With a flash of poisonous energy, Medusa and Yun Shan encircled Protector Shen. Yun Shan, empowered by the Breaking Sect Pill and his new Dou Zong cultivation, struck with ruthless precision. Hai Bodong, using his mastery of the Wind Ice Wheel, made quick work of the remaining Chu Yun forces, their flames extinguished in moments.
The Golden Geese Sect, led by their elite elders, was no match for the Xiao family and their allies. With a series of combined attacks, the Mu Clan's powers overwhelmed the Geese Sect's defenses, reducing their forces to mere dust.
The Chu Yun Empire and the Golden Geese Sect were annihilated before they could even mount a real defense.
Meanwhile, the forces of the Snake Heavenly Mansion had been tied up in battle with the Snake Tribe'sFour Elders and Six Commanders, who had been drawn into the fight by the alliance's growing power. The snake Heavenly Mansion was formidable, but they were no match for the combined might of the Xiao family and their powerful allies.
Xiao Yixian, with her mastery of the Poison Sutra, led a brutal offensive against the Snake Mansion's forces, her poisons seeping into their ranks and turning the tide of battle. Mu Lie, alongside his allies, trapped the Poison Sect within a massive formation, holding them in place as Xiao Yixian and her team swept through.
The battle turned into chaos as the Snake Heavenly Mansion and Poison Sect was overwhelmed, their Leaders unable to keep up with the strategic brilliance and sheer strength of the Xiao family's forces.
By the time the last enemy force had fallen, the battlefield was a chaotic scene of destruction. The Soul Palace's ambitions were crushed, their elite protectors annihilated. The three empires—the Mulan Empire, the Chu Yun Empire, and the Luo Yan Empire Leads by The Golden Geese Sect—had been erased in one fell swoop.
Xiao Yan, standing tall amidst the destruction, surveyed the battlefield with a cold, calculating gaze. The alliance had won, and the Tou She Ancient Jade was now safely in his possession. The Soul Palace and its allies had underestimated the Xiao family—and now they would pay the price.
"We've won," Xiao Yan said, his voice calm but filled with a cold fire. "But this is just the beginning. The world will know our power."
Xiao Chen nodded, his own power still rippling in the air, while Xiao Huang stood by their side, his transformation complete.
From the ashes of war, a new dynasty was born—one that would challenge even the mightiest of forces in the world.
