wouldn't that be like a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest, an act of plotting against the nation?
"This Sect Master finds this place prosperous and likes it very much. Please part with it."
Su Yun said indifferently.
Jia Xingtian's face showed no clear emotion: "Is Your Excellency's action a provocation to me, a challenge to the entire Gama Empire?!"
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King opened its gaping maw: "What a joke! It's clearly you, old man, who plotted against my master first! And you still have the nerve to say that!"
Yun Yun, who had been silent, spoke for the first time: "Your Excellency, the Imperial Capital holds extraordinary significance for the Gama Empire. Why must you force the issue?
The Gama Empire has no shortage of excellent locations and bustling cities. There's no need to be confined to this one Imperial Capital."
Yun Yun was about to persuade him further, but Su Yun waved his hand.
"There's no need to waste words. The Dou Qi Continent has always respected the strong. Why don't we just have a match and settle it once and for all."
"Do you really want to fight?"
Jia Xingtian frowned. If possible, he still hoped for peaceful negotiations. Making an enemy of a Dou Emperor Cultivator was not something he wished to see.
"Don't dare to make a Move?"
A faint hint of disdain crossed Su Yun's lips.
"No matter, this Sect Master can let you have two Moves."
Jia Xingtian clenched his fist. Even though he knew this was Su Yun's provocation, an endless surge of anger still welled up in his heart.
As a fellow Dou Emperor, even Queen Medusa wouldn't dare to look down on him so much!
"Good!"
"Elder Jia…"
"Sect Master Yun, no more talk!"
Jia Xingtian roared, his Dou Qi surging around him, revealing his Peak nine-star Dou Emperor cultivation without reservation.
"If you can defeat this old man, what's the harm in giving you this Imperial Capital!"
"That's excellent."
Su Yun nodded.
The two once again soared into the air, flying above the clouds. At such a height, it would be difficult to affect the ground.
Jia Xingtian's Dou Qi surged, forming a fist-shape. The power of heaven and earth continuously poured into him, transforming into a massive fist shadow.
"Earth-Splitting Collapse Fist!"
"Boom!"
Jia Xingtian threw a punch, carrying the force of toppling mountains and overturning seas. The fist strength was fierce and overbearing, as if it could shatter mountains.
"Minor trick."
Su Yun's slender palm slowly extended forward. A emerald green flame suddenly surged in his palm, transforming into a giant flame palm tens of feet tall. The high temperature scorched and warped the Void Realm.
The flame palm and rock fist collided with a tremendous roar!
"Boom—!"
A massive burst of energy exploded in the high sky. Everyone looked up at the sky, but the evenly matched fight they expected did not occur. The rock fist melted at a visible speed under the high temperature of the strange flame, disappearing completely in an instant!
"First Move."
Su Yun said indifferently, his long robe fluttering in the wind, not even a speck of dust clinging to him.
Yun Yun murmured to herself: "Elder Jia struck in anger, his first Move was with full power.
Earth-Splitting Collapse Fist is even a Profound Rank Advanced Dou Skill secretly passed down by the royal family, and Elder Jia is most adept at this Move… How could he not even force out the opponent's Dou Skill?"
"How can you imagine my master's power? Just wait, after that old man is defeated, it'll be your turn next!"
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King howled loudly, its face full of schadenfreude. The suffering it endured in the Monster Beast Mountain Range that day would now be someone else's turn!
"You should have stronger Moves, right? Regardless of victory or defeat, why not bring them out and amuse me.
Let me see what level the strong Cultivators on the Continent have reached after thousands of years of development."
A smile flashed across Su Yun's face, making him seem as warm as a spring breeze.
But Jia Xingtian felt a chill down his spine.
"That kind of flame… I can't be wrong, it's a strange flame!"
Jia Xingtian's expression was solemn. The amplification of strange flames to combat power was immense. If he didn't bring out his trump card, he might not be able to end this well today.
"Hmph!"
The power of heaven and earth raged. Jia Xingtian raised his hands, mobilizing all his Dou Qi, and condensed a giant rock Phoenix behind him.
"Caw!"
The rock Phoenix let out a low cry, its wings spanning tens of feet. It contained a violent power within its body. At its birth, the clouds beneath their feet instantly tore apart!
Yun Yun's pupils constricted. The energy fluctuations from above even made her feel pressure.
"Earth Rank Low-level Dou Skill, Rock Phoenix Meteorite Seal. This is Elder Jia's famous Dou Skill. Even my teacher back then wouldn't dare to take this Move head-on!"
The Purple Crystal Winged Lion King clamored: "A mere earth dog and tile chicken, not even worth a single hair of my master!"
"A little bit of strength, but not much."
Su Yun's sleeve fluttered. The Netherworld Poison Flame surged from his cuff, appearing an eerie dark green. The flames gathered in the Void Realm, gradually expanding, transforming into a massive fireball over ten feet in diameter.
The surface of the fireball was covered with scattered poisonous flames, emitting a suffocating and terrifying aura.
"Kill!"
Jia Xingtian's eyes were bloodshot, and veins bulged on his forehead. His earth-attribute Dou Qi surged wildly. As he thrust his palms forward, the rock Phoenix let out a piercing shriek that could shatter metal and stone, and charged towards Su Yun!
"Go."
Su Yun flicked his finger. The massive fireball, containing infinite fire energy and poison, shot forward.
"Boom—!"
A massive burst of energy erupted, dazzling and brilliant, making it impossible to even look directly at the scene high in the sky. A moment later, when the aftershocks dispersed, the citizens of the Imperial Capital slowly raised their heads.
Jia Xingtian's breathing was erratic, and his face was already pale. He had accumulated power for too long, and this attack had consumed more than half of his Dou Qi.
In contrast, Su Yun remained as graceful as an immortal and as handsome as before he made his Move.
"Grandpa is not his opponent…"
In the Imperial City, Yao Ye looked up at the scene in the sky, a bitter expression on her lips.
"Two Moves have passed."
Su Yun said softly. During the fight, his Soul Power was also monitoring the situation in the Imperial Capital.
The grand and intense battle had disturbed everyone in the city. Now, everyone was watching their fight.
The stage was set, and now it was his time to perform!
"Your Excellency, we have both consumed a lot of energy in this battle… How about we call it a draw today?"
"But… Alright."
Jia Xingtian knew he couldn't escape this calamity. His face was heavy, and he stood ready.
Su Yun's ten fingers danced gracefully, flames bursting from his fingertips, condensing into one emerald fire butterfly after another in front of him, containing terrifying fire and poison power.
"The Cultivation Technique and Dou Skills you cultivate are too crude, junior. Let this Sect Master give you a lesson."
Su Yun condensed his Dou Qi in his throat, amplifying his voice so that everyone in the entire Imperial Capital could hear him.
Jia Xingtian's face was ashen. He didn't know Su Yun's true purpose, only thinking that Su Yun was humiliating him in front of the people he protected!
"What I cultivate is the 'Netherworld Poison Manual,' which also includes many Supporting facilities Dou Skills.
'Azure Mist Nether Soul Sword,' 'Poisonous Absolute Nine Heavens Gang,' 'Netherworld Bone-Corroding Butterfly'… are all first-rate Earth Rank Low-level Dou Skills, much stronger than your broken Phoenix."
As Su Yun's voice fell, countless emerald butterflies carrying terrifying fire poison danced in the high sky!
