Chapter 160 What you owe me, you will surely repay.
"is it?"
Tao Tao slightly raised the corners of her mouth, a ruthless glint flashing in her eyes. With a flick of her longsword, several bolts of lightning shot out. Seeing this, Ye Lan raised her eyes and changed her palm print. The fluttering petals formed an indestructible barrier, actually blocking the lightning.
This is Ye Lan's natal magic weapon, the Sunset Lotus Platform. When it is integrated with her mind and spirit, its power is quite terrifying.
It's clear that Ye Lan was indeed forced into a corner, even bringing out her natal magic weapon; obviously, she didn't want to wait any longer.
Amidst the flurry of blossoms, they transformed into cold, sharp blades, attacking Tao Tao from all directions with incredible speed, making it impossible to dodge. Moreover, Tao Tao was trapped within and his spiritual power was sealed by the Heaven-Turning Seal, making it difficult for him to resist. He could only desperately hold on with the Ice Thunder Sword.
However, this was not a foolproof plan. At first, she could resist, but there were just too many flying flowers, and they were extremely fast. Several times, she was unable to dodge them and could only let them pass through her skin and flesh, causing her to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.
"If you don't break the Heaven-Turning Seal, you can only passively receive attacks, which will be disadvantageous for you."
Suddenly, Bai Yan's voice echoed in her mind, and then a blue light appeared between Tao Tao's brows. She knew what Bai Yan wanted to do and immediately stopped him, saying, "Ayan, let me do it myself."
This is a grudge between her and Ye Lan, and she must settle it herself.
As soon as she finished speaking, she forcibly mobilized her spiritual power, causing thousands of ice crystals to rise from the ground and point directly at Ye Lan. Since Ye Lan was sitting on the lotus platform, she could not move. When she suddenly saw the ice crystals rising from the ground, her expression changed immediately. She quickly activated the lotus platform and used flying flowers to form a hard barrier to block it. In this way, Tao Tao was no longer trapped. Risking the backlash, she heard a clear cry and her wings flapped as she soared into the sky, holding the Ice Thunder Sword and stabbing at the Heaven-Turning Seal.
"So that's what you were planning. Don't even think about it!"
Seeing Tao Tao's intention, Ye Lan split off a portion of flying flowers to intercept Tao Tao, and at the same time summoned the Jade Bone Exquisite Fan. The Jade Bone Exquisite Fan shot through the air like a bolt of lightning. Tao Tao turned around and saw the Jade Bone Exquisite Fan flying towards him, so he threw out his twin rings. A blue light flashed in his eyes, and his body was surrounded by icy blue lightning, increasing his speed to the extreme.
Such speed was beyond the reach of the Jade Bone Exquisite Fan, not to mention the double rings that prevented it from getting close. As for the flying flowers, they were thrown at Tao Tao's body. Tao Tao made a desperate attack, stabbing the Heaven-Turning Seal with his sword, causing a dizzying and deafening roar.
The powerful aftershock released by the Heaven-Turning Seal sent Tao Tao flying, crashing heavily to the ground. Fortunately, she transformed into her beast form upon landing, thus avoiding injury.
"Cough..." Tao Tao coughed suddenly, her mouth filled with a metallic taste, and bright red blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked up at the sky. She had fought so hard, thinking she could shake the Heaven-Turning Seal, but it only shook it by half. It temporarily restored her ability to mobilize her spiritual power, but the entire arena was still shrouded in it, making it impossible for outsiders to see what was happening inside.
"Do you think the Heaven-Turning Seal is so easy to break? Even a Nascent Soul stage senior would have to think twice."
Seeing that Tao Tao couldn't break through the Heaven-Turning Seal, Ye Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew the power of the Heaven-Turning Seal, she thought that Ye Ling might have some secrets she didn't know, since she could escape death. But now she was at ease, at least the strength shown so far was not enough to frighten her.
"As expected of a high-level magic weapon, I am ashamed of my inferiority. In that case, I will bypass it. My target from beginning to end has only been you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tao Tao disappeared from the spot, leaving Ye Lan stunned. She had been staring at Tao Tao the whole time, but she didn't expect that Tao Tao's speed had reached a level that was beyond the reach of the naked eye. Even when she released her divine sense, she couldn't find him in time.
Because at this moment, Tao Tao had already arrived behind Ye Lan. She quickly swung her long sword and slashed. Feeling the cold killing intent coming from behind, Ye Lan had already reacted as quickly as possible, but it was still too late.
With a loud bang, Ye Lan and the lotus platform plummeted from the sky, her shoulders stained with blood, looking utterly disheveled.
The fatal blow was blocked by the lotus platform, but it also shattered her heart meridian. If she hadn't taken a protective pill in an emergency, she probably wouldn't be able to move at all right now.
Of course, Tao Tao wasn't much better off. She had pushed her speed to the limit, but this was extremely damaging to her. If she wasn't careful, her meridians might reverse and she would die. But she couldn't care less. Even if she died, she would drag Ye Lan down with her.
Tao Tao chased after her again, unleashing lightning that struck Ye Lan relentlessly. Ye Lan was already fleeing in panic and looking for an opportunity to strike when Tao Tao suddenly attacked. Combined with the ice shards she had summoned earlier, the terrain of the entire arena had changed. She was like traversing between cliffs, constantly having to be aware of her surroundings.
Tao Tao really enjoyed this cat-and-mouse game. Whenever she thought about how Ye Lan had treated her in the past, she became even more playful. Wouldn't it be more satisfying to torment someone to death than to kill them?
Thinking of this, Tao Tao's eyes flickered, and the ice spikes rose up again to block Ye Lan's escape route. Ye Lan cursed inwardly, but she had not yet recovered and could not confront him head-on. She could only escape first and find an opportunity to strike again.
Unfortunately, Tao Tao wouldn't give her that chance. Since Ye Lan insisted on trapping her here, she should be allowed to have her way in this desperate struggle.
"Damn it!" Lightning strikes, ice shards, and even double rings flying at times—Ye Lan was utterly exasperated. She hadn't expected Tao Tao to be so persistent. But if it were her, she would have done the same, and probably would have torn Tao Tao to pieces long ago.
Knowing there was no escape and the only way was to face it, Ye Lan stopped dejectedly, sat down on the lotus platform again, took out a handful of pills from her storage bracelet and stuffed them all into her mouth. No matter what, she was going to fight this time.
After taking the pill, Ye Lan felt a burning sensation in her chest, and even her palms were sweating profusely. Under the effect of the pill, she recovered quickly, but this recovery was only temporary and could not completely heal her. However, it was enough to deal with Tao Tao.
Ye Lan changed her palm seals, and flying flowers came all over the sky again, turning into cold blades to shatter the flying ice shards. At the same time, the lotus platform gently rotated and bloomed pale red petals once more. At that moment, a huge red dharma image appeared behind Ye Lan, its appearance resembling a woman wearing a vest and holding a long spear.
The spear was aimed at Tao Tao and slashed down forcefully. Although Tao Tao was still quite far away, his body was suddenly pulled towards it, and he was unable to move. He had no choice but to accept the attack.
Compared to the previous attack, Tao Tao felt an unprecedented danger this time. It was the first time she had seen Ye Lan's Sunset Lotus Platform manifest its Dharma form. She hadn't expected that Ye Lan had already broken through to this level. No wonder she was so confident.
As the spear fell, Tao Tao gritted his teeth, and a white light and a blue light appeared on his body. The two lights merged and spread, transforming into a giant beast with a pair of blue wings, which opened its blood-red maw and bit at the Dharma image.
"That is……"
Ye Lan was shocked by this scene. She thought that the Sunset Lotus Platform Dharma Form was an insurmountable obstacle for Tao Tao and that she would surely kill it. However, she did not expect that the situation would be reversed. The key was that she could feel two very powerful forces from that giant beast. In one night, the world trembled.
"Roar!"
With a deafening roar, the Dharma image was instantly swallowed up. Before she could even struggle, Ye Lan coughed up a mouthful of blood in a panic. The lotus platform beneath her disintegrated. She gritted her teeth, retrieved the Sunset Lotus Platform, and quickly fled.
This was her natal magic weapon, and most of its power was devoured by the giant beast conjured by Tao Tao, which undoubtedly damaged her foundation. If the battle continued, she would surely die.
But Tao Tao is now in a bloodthirsty frenzy. She can kill Ye Lan and avenge herself in just one step. How can she stop here? Even though her whole body is burning like fire and her spiritual power is being consumed at an accelerated rate.
It should be known that forcibly combining the powers of Qingluan and Taotie would cause great harm to her, but killing Ye Lan would be worth it no matter what.
"This is a life you owe me, and you will repay it today!" Tao Tao roared and quickly chased after her. Seeing Tao Tao relentlessly pursuing her, Ye Lan was extremely anxious. In desperation, she summoned the Purple Gold Acacia Bell. A series of bell sounds rang out, and time suddenly stood still...
