Boom—

Ye Xiao was continuously attacked by the True Qi Fireballs, his appearance utterly disheveled and in a sorry state!

Ever since Ye Xiao had cultivated the Nine Yang Divine Skill, he had never been in such a sorry state where he was beaten without the strength to retaliate!

However, the one who had been attacking was solely Ah Tian, while the other five people just watched with smiles, not lifting a finger, which puzzled Ye Xiao!

Nevertheless, it was an irrefutable fact that the Nine Yang True Qi continuously flowed out of Ye Xiao's body. What was more surprising was that the speed of this outflow was linked to the frequency of Ye Xiao being struck. The more he was hit, the faster the Nine Yang True Qi drained, and the faster it drained, the more powerful the True Qi Fireballs that hit Ye Xiao became. Ye Xiao suspected his loss of True Qi might actually be aiding Ah Tian's True Qi Fireball attacks, but there was absolutely nothing Ye Xiao could do to stop the drain of his Nine Yang True Qi. At this moment, Ye Xiao had no chance to fight back and was perpetually in a state of being beaten!

Puh!

Ye Xiao was hit by another fireball, and blood sprayed wildly from his mouth!

Ye Xiao was injured—this was the first time he had suffered an internal injury since he had mastered the Nine Yang Divine Skill, but what was peculiar about this internal injury was that the blood he spat out vanished as soon as it touched the ground!

"This damn Ghost Formation!" cursed Ye Xiao mentally, utterly frustrated, yet helpless against the array.

Was he destined to die here?

Ye Xiao felt this was nonsensical. There were still many joyous moments in the future waiting for him, and many beautiful women looking forward to his presence!

How could he die?

While resisting the attacks of the True Qi Fireballs, Ye Xiao's mind was racing, desperately devising a way to escape.

He absolutely could not die—not to mention the regret of those beauties, but also he would never see his parents again. Plus, what about Tang Rong? This girl was the person he was most concerned about right now. Yes, he absolutely could not die!

Ye Xiao strived to recall a method to break the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation, and suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed in his mind.

Yeah, how could he have forgotten about this?

Ye Xiao had now reached the third level of Nine Yang Divine Skill, "The Purple Qi Comes from the East."

A passage in the text described, "All elements beneath heaven and earth are transformed by the Purple Qi."

As the name implies!

All elements between heaven and earth can be transformed by the Purple Qi of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, forming the unique Nine Yang True Qi!

Ye Xiao had learned at Qiu Mountain that all arrays have an Array Eye, which is vital to maintaining the array. All arrays are a mix of illusion and reality, shifting between appearance and essence!

This meant that although it seemed Ye Xiao was trapped within a barrier, in reality, he was in a land of freedom, his senses of hearing, sight, smell, and taste causing illusions!

Ye Xiao's face relaxed, and a faint smile reappeared. He then closed his eyes and sat in meditation!

Seeing Ye Xiao suddenly sit in meditation, the six people in mid-air were perplexed!

They could not understand what Ye Xiao was doing. Did he know he was going to die and thus sat in meditation to accept death?

But just then, those six realized something was off. Centered around Ye Xiao, a mass of purple aura was rapidly expanding and quickly enveloped him in it!

"What's going on?" they all asked each other, but nobody knew what exactly had happened!

Ah Tian immediately threw True Qi Fireballs at Ye Xiao even faster, but to everyone's surprise, as the Fireballs entered the purple aura, they were absorbed as rapidly as if by a sea beast starved for ages!

"That's not right!" exclaimed Ah Tian, a look of surprise on his face. "The power of the True Qi Fireballs is decreasing."

At that moment, Sister Yun suddenly said, "The energy source of the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation!"

Upon hearing Sister Yun's words, everyone gasped in shock and turned to look inside the purple aura.

The Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation could suppress someone of Ye Xiao's advanced Middle-level Xuan Rank because its energy source actually came from Ye Xiao himself. The more Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi was depleted or the more he was injured, the more his Inner Power True Qi would be used up and entirely converted by the array into the energy source of the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation. So, when Ye Xiao was attacked, he was essentially being assaulted by his own Inner Power True Qi, which was precisely the essence of the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation.

But now, with the purple aura enveloping his body, Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi was not leaking out, and the purple aura could even devour all natural elements and Inner Strength True Qi to convert into Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi!

Thus, as this process continued, the decline of one led to the enhancement of the other, greatly reducing the power of the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation. With the loss of the energy source, the only option left to defeat Ye Xiao was to attack him directly with their own strength.

So, the six people immediately used their Inner Power True Qi to attack Ye Xiao at a high speed!

At this moment, the Inner Power True Qi was merely at Yellow Rank Peak, let alone Ye Xiao now possessing the protective Purple Qi, even without the protective Purple Qi, Ye Xiao's True Qi Gauze could completely immunize against all their attacks!

Boom—

Suddenly, a figure emerged from within the Purple Qi, who else could it be but Ye Xiao? That confident smile, that elegant demeanor. Cloaked in Purple Qi, he shot up like a rocket, piercing directly through the topmost layer of the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation, Ye Xiao flew right out of the formation!

With the array broken, and the Array Eye not damaged, Ye Xiao shot out, and the six people immediately fell from the sky, all slamming onto the ground, each of them spewing blood!

As Ye Xiao gently landed, the six members of the Seven-colored Lamp, who had just been scoffing, were now staring at Ye Xiao in surprise. Clearly, at this moment, they couldn't believe this was real!

"This… This is impossible!" Ah Tian was especially astonished as he looked at the triumphantly radiant Ye Xiao. You should know, Ah Tian had already realized that Ye Xiao was severely injured, even at the brink of death!

What a difference from before!

"What's impossible?" Ye Xiao's face was full of smiles.

Although Ye Xiao was smiling, deep down, he was incredibly amazed by the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation. If he wasn't practicing the Nine Yang Divine Skill, today he might have truly died in this formation!

Just a few minutes ago, within the Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation, Ye Xiao almost reached a point where neither heaven nor earth could answer his calls!

"There really is something special about you!" A voice like silver bells rang out!

Ye Xiao immediately turned towards the direction of the voice, only to see a woman in red standing with her back to him on a high roof!

"Elder sister!" Upon seeing the woman in red, the members of the Seven-colored Lamp quickly got up. Clearly, Ye Xiao's forceful breaking of the formation had not caused them any substantial harm, which Ye Xiao believed was definitely the effect of this Six-Colored Hidden Tiger Formation.

Ye Xiao suddenly realized how useful formations were in battles among martial artists!

Six Yellow Rank martial artists using a formation could torture a Xuan Rank expert to the point of despair!

"Are you the boss of the Seven-colored Lamp?" Ye Xiao looked up at the woman in red and shouted loudly!

The woman in red chuckled softly, yet did not turn around but spoke, "Ye Xiao, it's not been long, can't you recognize my voice?"

Hearing the woman's words, Ye Xiao was slightly stunned. Without the woman mentioning it, Ye Xiao wouldn't have guessed. Now that she did, a person did come to mind, but it seemed improbable!

However, the moment the woman in red turned around, Ye Xiao was utterly shocked because she was indeed the person Ye Xiao had thought of!

"Wang Luoxin!" Ye Xiao exclaimed looking at the woman in red!

Indeed, it was none other than Wang Luoxin, the owner of Xinxin Porridge House!

Ye Xiao really hadn't dreamed that she would actually be Wang Luoxin. When Wang Luoxin was speaking from above earlier, Ye Xiao had some doubts but didn't quite believe it.

"Hehe, surprised, am I?" Wang Luoxin looked at Ye Xiao and said, "I thought you might have forgotten about me!"

Wang Luoxin, dressed in red, descended slowly from the high room like a fairy descending to earth, causing Ye Xiao to be moved!

"Are you the boss of the Seven-colored Lamp?" Ye Xiao looked at Wang Luoxin, sizing her up as he spoke!

"You can think of it that way!" Wang Luoxin said.

"This isn't just my thinking; you are indeed the one. I really didn't expect the owner of Xinxin Porridge House to be such a figure. Did you also know that the person you would be up against today was me?" Ye Xiao stared at Wang Luoxin.

"Yes!" Wang Luoxin still smiled lightly and said, "You didn't really fall in love with me, did you?"

Ye Xiao's face turned slightly red, then he said, "I think with your Hidden Tiger Formation, you can't trap me!"

"Yes, you are not a tiger but a dragon!" Wang Luoxin nodded as she spoke.

"Good you know!"

Wang Luoxin smiled faintly, then immediately said to the other members of the Seven-colored Lamp, "Did you hear that? He is a dragon; how can the Hidden Tiger deal with a dragon? So…"

Upon hearing Wang Luoxin's words, the members of the Seven-colored Lamp immediately understood and suddenly leaped into mid-air again. Wang Luoxin also kicked off from the ground and shot into the sky, reaching the topmost point and hovering there.

However, just at that moment, Ye Xiao distinctly felt something was wrong. The sky, which had been bright, suddenly turned dark, and even thunder and lightning appeared. Was the weather changing? But how could the weather change so abruptly? It's not right; Ye Xiao was immediately slightly surprised because he found that Wang Luoxin and the other six members of the Seven-colored Lamp had blended their Inner Power True Qi together, which was already merged!
