Chaos
Just as Hun Tiandi was about to continue his attack, Gu Yuan's body trembled violently, his body suddenly expanded, and his huge fist smashed directly towards Hun Tiandi.
Hun Tiandi immediately withdrew his hand, his figure flashed and he switched positions with Nihility Devouring Flame, and with a casual wave of his hand, he forced back the two Patriarch Yan Jin and Lei Ying.
"I've been waiting for you!"
With a gulp of black flames, the Nihility Devouring Flame expelled four figures shrouded in an aura of death from its belly.
The four figures were all distorted, their bodies were skin and bones, and their heads were extremely strange, as if they had been forcibly pieced together.
However, Gu Yuan could still tell that these four were the Eight-star Dou Sheng who had been killed when they surrounded and attacked Xiao Xuan, and were also the four Living Dead whose heads he had smashed last time.
"Four Directions Annihilation; the Realm of Death!"
The four had been lurking within the Nihility Devouring Flame, always ready. Now, summoned, they opened their mouths simultaneously, and four beams of light shot out, eventually transforming into four massive black doors filled with the aura of death.
Gu Yuan's punch was blocked by one of the massive black doors. The powerful force of the punch slammed into the door panel, leaving only a deep fist mark.
Gu Yuan is only a hundred feet tall, while this giant gate is a thousand feet high. It would take at least several breaths to completely break through it.
The massive black gate stood in front of, behind, to the left and right of Gu Yuan, emanating a deathly aura that enveloped the surrounding space. Under the influence of this deathly aura, Gu Yuan felt his life force being affected, and the strength in his hands lessened slightly.
Gu Yuan stared at Hun Yuan Tian with murderous intent. Of the four Eight-star Dou Sheng, he was the only Eight-star Dou Sheng Initial Stage. He was seriously injured last time and his strength was not complete. At most, he could only match Seven Star Dou Sheng. He only managed to raise his aura by forming Formation.
Although it was hidden behind the Gate of Deathly Silence, with such weak strength, Gu Yuan could have completely killed it even through the door.
However, before Gu Yuan could make a move, the Hun Tiandi once again switched positions with the Nihility Devouring Flame and entered the Formation filled with deathly silence, blocking Gu Yuan's way and preventing him from breaking the Formation.
"Blood Fiend Soul Devouring Net!"
Streams of blood, brimming with ferocity, seeped from the Gate of Deathly Silence, transforming into intertwined blood threads that enveloped Gu Yuan's body, attempting to restrain him.
Gu Yuan's expression was solemn. He exhaled a breath of turbid air, and his powerful Dou Qi surged wildly, constantly destroying the bloodline. At the same time, he dodged left and right, but he could not completely resist it. He was caught by this evil net and had one of his arms grabbed.
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The moment the bloodline touched Gu Yuan, it was about to seep into his body, but Gu Yuan neutralized it with his Dou Qi, causing it to evaporate completely.
More and more blood threads continued to wrap around Gu Yuan's body, and at this moment he seemed to be at his last gasp.
However, the Hun Tiandi was not in a hurry to step forward. He simply controlled the bloodline from a distance to deplete it. He would only step forward to harass Gu Yuan when Gu Yuan tried to break through the door.
While Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi were locked in a fierce battle, the Nihility Devouring Flame outside set its sights on Xiao Yan, whose aura was somewhat weakened.
Although the hidden Black Annihilation King emerged and stood beside Xiao Yan, he was only an Eight-star Dou Sheng Initial Stage and had no chance against the Nihility Devouring Flame.
"..."
Xiao Yan remained silent for a moment. Although his current realm was only the Six-star Dou Sheng Late Stage, it was not an exaggeration to say that his strength ranked fifth in the Dou Qi Continent. The only ones he could not defeat were the nascent Emperor Pill Prototype, the Old Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon, Gu Yuan, and the Hun Tiandi.
Even if Nihility Devouring Flame is Nine-star Dou Sheng, Xiao Yan is capable of using the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations to upgrade to Eight-star Dou Sheng, and is confident that he can contend with him under the suppression of the Emperor Realm Soul Emperor Flame.
But that was the fully realized state, not the state that consumes so much energy as it does now.
At the same time, Xiao Yan couldn't ask Xiao Xuan to come out and help—that would inevitably provoke the two Patriarch who were wavering.
Yan Jin and Lei Ying have begun to observe. They cannot accept the Soul Clan's strength; they cannot bear the Gu Clan's strength; and they are equally unwilling to see Xiao Yan grow stronger.
Xiao Xuan's reputation currently outweighs his actual strength; his combat power is only comparable to that of a Patriarch. However, his appearance alone is enough to cause both of them to defect.
Just then, Xiao Yan's face turned pale, and his aura rapidly weakened, causing him to drop directly from the Eight-star Dou Sheng Initial Stage to the Six-star Dou Sheng Late Stage.
"Two Patriarch, you don't want to see my Heavenly Flames devoured by the Nihility Devouring Flame, do you?"
Xiao Yan's half-dead voice reached the ears of the two Patriarch, causing their expressions to change immediately.
"Trying to run?!"
With a fierce shout, Nihility Devouring Flame vanished into the void, directly blocking Xiao Yan's path.
Xiao Yan opened his mouth and exhaled a thick white mist that enveloped the Nihility Devouring Flame. Then, he raised his arms, his skin covered by a layer of purple-gold Dragon Phoenix Battle Armor, and was struck by the Nihility Devouring Flame's palm.
"Pfft..." Xiao Yan spat out a mouthful of blood, his arms were twisted and his bones ached, he was almost broken by the Nihility Devouring Flame.
With just one glance, Xiao Yan realized that Nihility Devouring Flame's Space Talent was also extremely high, in no way inferior to Dragon Phoenix, making it difficult for Xiao Yan to escape under his nose.
Fortunately, Yan Jin Lei Ying finally made up his mind and stood shoulder to shoulder with Nihility Devouring Flame.
However, the five- or six- Dou Sheng of the three races, who were originally engaged in a fierce battle with the Soul Clan, stopped what they were doing and scattered, vaguely forming a large circle around Xiao Yan, who looked extremely weak.
The previously somewhat restrained situation finally descended into complete chaos, with multi-party warfare erupting.
Hun Tiandi led four Living Dead to besiege Gu Yuan; Yan Jin and Lei Ying forces to fight against Nihility Devouring Flame; Black Annihilation King and the Ancient Clan Three Immortals fought against the Hun Clan Two Demon Saints and several hidden elders; Xiao Yan concealed his strength and wandered among a group of five- or six- Dou Sheng from the Yao Yan Lei Three Clans.
However, the Nihility Devouring Flame kept a close eye on Xiao Yan. Whenever Xiao Yan tried to run away, it would immediately travel through the void to stop him. Yan Jin Lei Ying would then stop, and Xiao Yan would use the three clans' Dou Sheng as shields to hide in the crowd again. Yan Jin Lei Ying would then work even harder to prevent the Nihility Devouring Flame from getting a chance to attack.
Although the situation was somewhat deadlocked, Xiao Yan was anxious—the four enormous Gate of Deathly Silence had trapped Gu Yuan, and if Gu Yuan died, then the Hun Tiandi would be unstoppable.
In the Realm of Death, Gu Yuan already looked exhausted, his clothes were tattered and wrapped with a lot of blood-red threads.
For a strong person, clothes can be changed with a single turn of Dou Qi, and being tattered only indicates that Gu Yuan is in a very poor state.
Hun Yuan Tian was almost dying again at this moment. Gu Yuan was focused on attacking his Gate of Deathly Silence, and the force of the attack made his bones feel like they were about to fall apart.
But Hun Yuan Tian still looked happy, because Hun Tiandi was still in good condition, while Gu Yuan's strength was getting weaker and weaker.
Just then, Gu Yuan finally stopped and sighed heavily at the Hun Tiandi: "I was going to give you another one..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of Dark Gold Flame erupted from Gu Yuan's body, instantly burning away the blood threads that were wrapped around his body!
