As the enormous sound echoed, several figures quickly ran from a distance. Leading them was Huyan Zhen, whom they had met during the Soul Master Competition.
Yang Xiong and the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King had just fought a fierce battle, and the scene was already unrecognizable. Even the corpses of the four Elephant Armor Sect members were beyond recognition.
Besides Huyan Zhen, the arrivals included an Elephant Armor Sect Soul Douluo, three Soul Saints, and Huyan Li, whom they had encountered during the Soul Master Competition.
Huyan Zhen roared, "Brat from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, hand over the Soul Bone quickly, or I'll make sure you have no burial place."
Huyan Zhen's eyesight was indeed sharp. Just by looking at the surrounding situation, he knew that Yang Xiong had obtained a top-grade right arm Soul Bone.
Yang Xiong sneered, "Sect Leader Hu Yan, what are you saying? Do you think our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is easy to bully?"
Huyan Zhen snorted coldly, "You snot-nosed brat, do you think you can leave here unharmed today?"
Clearly, both Huyan Zhen and the others looked down on Yang Xiong. They were multiple experts, and even though they sensed that Yang Xiong had reached the Soul Emperor realm, he was still too weak compared to them.
Huyan Zhen's body exuded a terrifying aura. As expected of a pure defense-type top Soul Douluo, his raw Strength had definitely reached the Titled Douluo level.
A solemn expression appeared on Yang Xiong's face. If it were just Huyan Zhen, he wouldn't be afraid, but with so many people on the other side, it was a bit difficult.
However, all his experts had already left. Otherwise, how could a mere Huyan Zhen be so presumptuous?
Yang Xiong didn't hesitate and immediately used Teleportation, instantly appearing a hundred meters away. He even sneered, "The Elephant Armor Sect is nothing but a bunch of bullies. After today, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will definitely settle the score."
Huyan Zhen roared, "How dare you! If I let you run away today, where will the Elephant Armor Sect's face be?"
Yang Xiong felt a tremendous pressure coming from afar, as if the entire ground was about to be crushed. This was the Gravity Control of a Strength-type Soul Douluo.
Huyan Zhen was originally very confident in his Gravity Control, but Yang Xiong seemed completely unaffected by the pressure and ran off directly.
The Elephant Armor Sect members were instantly enraged. Everyone chased after Yang Xiong, seemingly determined not to give up until they killed him.
Unfortunately, although Huyan Zhen was powerful, in terms of Speed, he had no advantage over Yang Xiong, and was even slightly at a disadvantage.
Yang Xiong ran leisurely through the Sunset Forest, neither shaking off their pursuit nor being caught up by the Elephant Armor Sect members. It was somewhat like walking a dog.
Huyan Zhen and the others cursed behind him while also not wanting to give up chasing Yang Xiong.
This made Yang Xiong a bit speechless. The Elephant Armor Sect members were indeed low in intelligence, purely a bunch of reckless individuals. Didn't they consider that if he were just a simple Soul Emperor, how could he move through this Sunset Forest as if on flat ground?
Of course, the Elephant Armor Sect members arrived relatively late and hadn't seen Yang Xiong's Martial Soul and Soul Rings, which was why they were chasing so happily.
For some reason, Yang Xiong's escape Speed suddenly slowed down. Just as the Elephant Armor Sect members thought they were about to catch up to Yang Xiong, Yang Xiong's figure flickered, and he actually Teleported directly next to Huyan Li.
Yang Xiong's entire body's muscles seemed to solidify. He directly punched Huyan Li. This punch seemed to contain infinite Strength. This was his Self-Created Soul Skill: Bone Crushing Punch.
The Elephant Armor Sect members were also startled. They hadn't expected Yang Xiong to still want to counterattack while being chased by so many people, especially since this attack looked extremely powerful, as if it wanted to shatter Huyan Li.
The Soul Douluo who had been protecting Huyan Li was also shocked. He immediately transformed into a giant Diamond Mammoth. His Fifth Soul Ring flashed, which was his Fifth Soul Skill: Mammoth Giant Sword. It seemed he wanted to attack the rescuer to save the besieged.
But Yang Xiong didn't care about that and directly punched Huyan Li with all his might.
At the critical moment, Huyan Li also gritted his teeth, as if knowing that Yang Xiong's attack was unavoidable. His Fourth Soul Ring flashed, which was his Fourth Soul Skill: Thousand Jun Guidance. A giant Diamond Mammoth instantly blocked in front of him.
However, Yang Xiong's attack was full of momentum and directly shattered Huyan Li's Thousand Jun Guidance, smashing hard onto Huyan Li's body.
But at the last moment, a light actually emanated from Huyan Li's head, colliding head-on with Yang Xiong's fist.
Even so, Huyan Li was directly sent flying by Yang Xiong, spitting blood. Clearly, he was not lightly injured.
Just then, the Soul Douluo's Fifth Soul Skill, Mammoth Giant Sword, also approached Yang Xiong. Even though Yang Xiong used his hands like claws to grab the Mammoth Giant Sword, he felt an endless power emanating from the skill, and he was sent flying over ten meters.
Yang Xiong sneered, "Huyan Li, you should be glad that head Soul Bone saved your life. I hope you have such good luck next time."
At this moment, an extremely strong pressure descended from the sky. It was Huyan Zhen attacking with all his might. Clearly, Huyan Zhen was enraged; Yang Xiong's previous attack had almost taken his grandson's life.
However, Yang Xiong sneered and immediately turned to run.
A simpleton like Huyan Zhen was inherently slow, and besides, this kind of long-range pressure was nothing to Yang Xiong.
Seeing Huyan Li severely injured, Huyan Zhen was even more unwilling to let Yang Xiong go.
After wandering around in the Sunset Forest for three or four hours, the group...
Just then, a huge Soul Breaking Spear descended directly from the sky, instantly blocking Huyan Zhen and the others.
Huyan Zhen was immediately furious, "Yang Wudi, what do you want? Do your Breaking Clan also want to be enemies with my Elephant Armor Sect?"
Yang Wudi roared, "You rats of the Elephant Armor Sect, a group of Soul Douluo chasing after a child, where is the appearance of a great sect?"
"Especially you, Huyan Zhen, don't think you can act recklessly just because you've relied on the Spirit Hall. Why waste words with a lackey of the Spirit Hall like you?"
Huyan Zhen's face turned ashen upon hearing this. "Good, Yang Wudi, you won't leave safely today. I want to see what qualifications you have to say such things."
Yang Wudi ignored Huyan Zhen and instead looked at Yang Xiong. "Little Xiongzi, aren't you always strong? How could you be chased by these rats from the Elephant Armor Sect?"
Yang Xiong smiled. "Just playing with them, otherwise how would they take the bait?"
Yang Xiong knew that dealing with so many people from the Elephant Armor Sect by himself would be a bit difficult, so he led the Elephant Armor Sect members in circles around the Sunset Forest, intentionally and unintentionally approaching the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well, and secretly signaling Yang Wudi.
As long as Yang Wudi was there, with the strength of both Yang Wudi and Yang Xiong, they could completely keep all the Elephant Armor Sect members there.
Yang Wudi said, "What do we do next? There are five of them. If I want to deal with Huyan Zhen, I'm afraid I won't be able to win in a short time."
Yang Xiong said casually, "Why didn't Senior Dugu Bo come out? He should be with you, right?"
Yang Wudi raised an eyebrow. "You still have the nerve to mention Dugu Bo. That old poisonous fellow hates you extremely. He's probably too happy to see you being chased to even think about helping you."
Yang Xiong was speechless for a moment. This Dugu Bo was too vengeful. He just took some Immortal Herbs from him, and he even asked Yang Wudi to help him cure the poison that had entered his body, and even gave him a Soul Bone.
"Senior Yang, we have to keep everyone here. I'll deal with Huyan Zhen, and you should have no problem dealing with the others, right?"
Yang Wudi snorted. "You're looking down on me. What's the point of fighting a few mere trash fish? That old fellow Huyan Zhen has some strength, and his defense has probably already reached the Titled Douluo level. Are you sure you're okay?"
Yang Xiong smiled. "Let's give it a try. I also want to see the so-called number one defense in the world."
After saying this, Yang Xiong walked directly towards Huyan Zhen. "Old fellow, you had a good time chasing just now. I'm afraid your Elephant Armor Sect will be completely wiped out here today."
Meanwhile, Yang Wudi held the Soul Breaking Spear and walked towards the others, seemingly intending to capture everyone in one fell swoop.
Huyan Zhen was immediately furious. "You yellow-mouthed brat, you actually dare to underestimate my dignified Elephant Armor Sect. This old man will tear you to pieces today to vent the hatred in my heart."
A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Xiong's mouth. "Just a frog in a well. I'll show you that there's a heaven beyond the sky."
With that, Yang Xiong instantly summoned his Martial Soul and Soul Rings. His entire body turned blood-red, and at the same time, two yellow, one purple, two black, and one red Soul Rings appeared on him.
When Yang Xiong's blood-red Soul Ring appeared, everyone present was greatly shocked and felt immense pressure. Even Huyan Zhen's face became extremely solemn; clearly, he understood the significance of a 100,000-Year Soul Ring even better.
Huyan Zhen roared, and the huge Diamond Mammoth possessed him. At the same time, two yellow, two purple, and four black Soul Rings appeared.
Yang Xiong didn't say a word and charged directly at Huyan Zhen. His hands seemed to possess infinite strength, and his claws grabbed fiercely at Huyan Zhen.
But Huyan Zhen was not afraid. After all, he was more than twenty levels higher than Yang Xiong, and he had extreme confidence in his defense.
In just an instant, Yang Xiong's claws collided with Huyan Zhen's fists. Huyan Zhen remained completely still, while Yang Xiong felt a huge force on his hands and was knocked back dozens of meters.
Only then did Yang Xiong understand why Huyan Zhen was known as the strongest defender in the world. Huyan Zhen's entire body was like refined iron, terrifyingly hard. Not to mention, in terms of strength, he was probably already stronger than someone who had just entered the Titled Douluo realm.
Yang Xiong didn't hesitate either and immediately used his Fourth Soul Skill: Dragon Elephant Adamantine Body. His entire body instantly became thicker, and his strength and defense were greatly enhanced.
At the same time, all three of his External Soul Bones appeared. He wore thick armor, his hands were covered in scales, and extremely sharp claws emerged from his fingers.
Huyan Zhen just snorted coldly, "Little brat, you have quite a few tricks. Let's see what makes you talk such big words."
Huyan Zhen charged towards Yang Xiong, and the ground seemed to tremble as if his entire body possessed infinite strength.
Yang Xiong didn't say a word and unleashed a full-strength grab at Huyan Zhen. The Ice Fire Dragon Claws instantly displayed their power to the extreme.
But Huyan Zhen charged like a giant elephant, and Yang Xiong was forced back several meters again. The difference in strength between the two was still too great, and the difference in soul power was even greater.
But Yang Xiong couldn't care less at this moment. He became incredibly agitated and attacked Huyan Zhen at extreme speed.
Soon, in just a few minutes, the two had exchanged countless blows. Their fists, claws, and bodies seemed to have collided countless times, as if it were a pure clash of strength.
In comparison, Yang Xiong looked worse off. He was forced back repeatedly by Huyan Zhen, and his hands were aching, feeling incredibly sore as if they had been hit by a huge force.
But Yang Xiong's attacks seemed to have no effect on Huyan Zhen. Even the Ice Fire Dragon Claws couldn't break through Huyan Zhen's defense, only leaving a few tiny scratches on his body.
It was clear that Huyan Zhen had also undergone extremely brutal body tempering. His physical quality was the strongest Yang Xiong had ever seen among Soul Douluo, even stronger than Niu Gao by quite a bit. He had basically reached the peak of defense.
Besides Yang Xiong, Yang Wudi was also fighting the other members of the Elephant Armor Sect, and the entire process seemed effortless for him.
