(60) Can Only Keep Eating

Although Zhu Kun's arrival was unexpected, it was also a great thing.

Zi Yan inherited Zhu Kun's account, so it's definitely not as good as if Zhu Kun himself operated it.

It's a pity that one portion of the Dou Emperor Inheritance has to be given to Zhu Kun, but it's unlikely that the Gu Clan would monopolize two portions of the inheritance anyway.

In addition to Zhu Kun's understanding of the cave dwelling, and the alliance between the Gu Clan and the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, this is currently the optimal solution.

The Gu Clan had been preparing for war for a long time, and now that they were confident of victory, they didn't need to say much. Their mighty army set off directly out of the Ancient Realm, with countless black warships making no attempt to conceal themselves, heading straight for the Soul Realm.

This move instantly alarmed the entire Central Continent. All the major powers took notice of the Gu Clan's actions and went into hiding, fearing they would be drawn into this conflict...

The Soul Realm is located in a remote area in the southwest of the Central Continent. In ancient times, the Soul Clan was not a powerful force. However, as time passed and the world was swept away by the tides, the Soul Clan remained steadfast and eventually became a leading clan.

When the Gu Clan Warship arrived, the sky-covering Black Mist had already enveloped the Soul Realm, with countless Soul Clan appearing and disappearing within Black Mist, making it impossible to discern the exact number of enemies.

Only the Hun Tiandi, dressed in white, stood before the Soul Clan members, wearing a mask with a fake smile, as if he were welcoming guests.

Gu Yuan suppressed the restless Xiao Yan and confronted the Hun Tiandi head-on. "Hun Tiandi, where are the Xiao Family members?"

Xiao Yan also took the opportunity to retrieve the Tou She Ancient God Jade from his Storage Ring.

The Hun Tiandi looked at Xiao Yan with great interest. Without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed, causing a patch of Black Mist to churn violently on the ground. Accompanied by spatial fluctuations, a group of weak figures appeared in front of everyone.

Those were indeed Xiao Family, each one listless, their eyes filled with numbness, and some even had physical disabilities.

"Why did you suddenly decide to use the Tou She Ancient God Jade to exchange for the lives of your Xiao Family?" The Hun Tiandi made a grasping motion with one hand, confirming that the space was still under his control.

If anyone tries to make a move, the Hun Tiandi will instantly tear the entire space apart, and with the strength of the Xiao Family members, there is absolutely no chance of them surviving.

"Enough with the nonsense, release the person and I'll hand over the jade!" Xiao Yan shouted coldly.

The Hun Tiandi shrugged noncommittally. He could sense Xiao Yan's growing strength, and he would surely surpass Xiao Xuan in time. Even now, there were few in the Soul Clan who could defeat him. It was only possible to suppress him by the Nihility Devouring Flame himself.

Unfortunately, he couldn't hold his temper in the end.

With thoughts racing through his mind, the Hun Tiandi reached out and grabbed the Xiao Family members, lifting them up in a cloud of Black Mist and suspending them in mid-air.

Xiao Yan also controlled the Tou She Ancient God Jade to float up.

The two of them simultaneously reached out and pushed forward, Xiao Family members were propelled towards the Gu Clan army by an invisible force. Tou She Ancient God Jade also floated directly towards Hun Tiandi.

Xiao Yan stood still, while Zi Yan flashed away, her Space Power surging, and she led the Xiao Family members away from the battlefield.

This was also Zhu Kun's request. He was worried that Zi Yan, a mere Four-star Dou Sheng, might be accidentally killed in the battle. Xiao Yan then suggested that Zi Yan protect the Xiao Family during their retreat, Zhu Kun readily agreed.

Just as Zi Yan left the battlefield, the last piece of Tou She Ancient God Jade finally fell into the hands of the Hun Tiandi. Its unique texture made the Hun Tiandi absolutely certain of its authenticity.

After a thousand years of effort, the Tou She Ancient God Jade has finally been collected. The hope of becoming an emperor is within reach. The Hun Tiandi can't help but feel joy, and even his fake smile has become more sincere.

Just then, Gu Yuan lunged forward, raising his hand to strike. Amidst the surging World Energy, a Giant Palm appeared out of thin air and slammed down towards the Hun Tiandi. As the palm wind fell, much of the Black Mist swirling around the Soul Realm dissipated.

Gu Yuan's actions were like a battle cry, and one after another, the Gu Clan Warship started moving and charged towards the Soul Clan.

The Hun Tiandi sneered, first putting away the Tou She Ancient God Jade, then raising his hand to block Gu Yuan: "What, do you think you can fight against me and the Soul Emperor Mark at the same time?"

The many powerful members of the Soul Clan also quickly dispersed, forming a large sack that enveloped the entire Gu Clan. Each tiny figure exuded an overwhelming aura, creating a great formation that trapped the Gu Clan army within.

Four colossal gates spanning tens of thousands of feet emanated a chilling Death Qi, forming a self-contained Death Space that constantly eroded the life force of everyone present.

Under such circumstances, the strength of all the members of the Gu Clan was reduced, and Gu Yuan also felt a sudden increase in pressure when facing the Hun Tiandi.

Clearly, the Soul Clan had been preparing for this for a long time.

"Hold head high!"

Just as the four gates completed their encirclement, a fierce roar resounded across the battlefield. Apart from Gu Yuan and the Hun Tiandi, everyone felt a sense of unease, as if their souls were about to be shattered by that dragon's roar.

Even though Xiao Yan had broken through to the Emperor Realm Soul, he still felt dazed under the unparalleled Dragon Might.

Immediately, a giant dragon with a purple-gold hue pierced through the newly formed Death Space, tearing open a Space Rift tens of thousands of feet long.

A powerful suction force entered the Death Space through the cracks. The Spatial Storm in the void continuously drew the Death Qi out of the space. The endless, incomparable Death Qi was even more profound. Its boundless darkness could not be sealed off by the four Gates of Death.

The Nihility Devouring Flame, which maintained the stability of the Death Space, glanced silently at the giant dragon and decided to personally take action to capture Xiao Yan and avenge himself—the matter of the Death Space was not urgent and could be put aside for now.

"Who are you? Why are you fighting for the Gu Clan? My Soul Clan has gathered the Tou She Ancient God Jade and is about to open the Dou Di Relic. Why don't you join forces with my Soul Clan to develop the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion?" Hun Tiandi's eyelids twitched wildly. Before this giant dragon appeared, he had not realized that there was a Peak Dou Saint hidden there.

"I am the previous Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon clan, who was nearly wiped out by you!"

The dragon roared furiously, its powerful tail lashing out at a massive black gate. With a deafening crash, the Gates of Death flew thousands of miles away, and the crumbling Death Space collapsed completely in the process.

The Hun Tiandi could no longer laugh and hurriedly shouted, "Summon the Soul Emperor!"

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

As soon as the Hun Tiandi finished speaking, the four Gates of Death closed, and the four half-dead Eight-star Dou Sheng, leading the group, switched to a Formation.

Like an endless stream of souls being poured out of the Black Mist like dumplings being dropped into a pot, they fell into the great formation. Then, accompanied by mournful howls, they were broken down into pure Soul Power, which condensed into a spiritual ocean.

"Four Living Dead summoning one dead man, you Soul Clan really are a bunch of hellish creatures." The purple-gold dragon shone with blinding light, Zhu Kun's burly figure appeared, his face full of disdain.

Of course, this was also a choice the Soul Clan had no other choice but to make.

The stronger the main person in charge of the formation, the stronger the Residual Soul of the Dou Emperor summoned will be. Gu Yuan will not give the Hun Tiandi the chance to be the main person in charge of the formation, and the Nihility Devouring Flame does not meet the standard. Only these few Eight-star Dou Sheng can come out to support the formation.

As soon as Zhu Kun finished speaking, a terrifying wave surged in the spiritual ocean. Once the sea level returned to normal, an extremely ancient yet incredibly powerful aura slowly spread out, causing Zhu Kun to feel a sense of pressure.

"Two Peak Dou Saint, one human and one Magical Beast..." A hoarse voice rang out, and a person wearing armor and holding a scythe appeared opposite Zhu Kun, his calm eyes hiding a chilling killing intent.

"Please, Ancestor, make your move!" Hun Tiandi shouted again, worried that the life force of the Living Dead would be exhausted.

"Boom boom boom!"

Without needing to say anything more, the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul Hun Tiandi at Gu Yuan with a scythe. Seeing this, Zhu Kun also formed a purple-gold seal and smashed it towards the Hun Tiandi.

The two humans, the dragon, and the ghost immediately engaged in battle, and the aftershocks of the fight could be felt throughout the entire Central Continent.

On the other side, the Nihility Devouring Flame also approached Xiao Yan.

"I didn't expect you to have also broken through to the Emperor Realm Soul..." The Nihility Devouring Flame's eyes were pitch black, like two materialized black holes, devouring all souls.

"I should be the one saying that. I never thought you, who were beaten to a pulp not long ago, could turn the tables?" Xiao Yan grinned, his words full of hostility.

As expected, the Nihility Devouring Flame erupted as if it had been set on fire, unleashing a black flame that swept everything away, stretching for thousands of feet with no end in sight. Wherever it passed, even space itself could not escape being devoured.

Xiao Yan suppressed his emotions, his expression neither sad nor happy. At this moment, the Heavenly Flames in his chest completely merged with his heart. The raging fire, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas, flowed into his limbs and bones, becoming one with Xiao Yan's physical body.

A dazzling burst of flames erupted from Xiao Yan's body, breaking through the seemingly boundless darkness and radiating light and heat like the sun.

"Destruction Fire Body?!" Nihility Devouring Flame was taken aback for a moment, then smiled contemptuously, unleashing an incomparably powerful Dou Qi: "I am the strongest Heavenly Flames!"

The Destruction Fire Body is Secret Technique for perfectly unleashing the power of Heavenly Flames, but the Nihility Devouring Flame itself is Heavenly Flames, and it only needs to unleash its full power to achieve the same effect as the Destruction Fire Body.

Xiao Yan remained calm, softly uttering a few words: "Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations!"

At this moment, the burning Exotic Flame Body seemed to explode completely, with every pore bursting with unparalleled terrifying flames. The aura it emitted alone directly overwhelmed the Nihility Devouring Flame that wanted to rush forward, causing the black flames in the sky to dim.

Without needing any Dou Technique, Xiao Yan simply threw a punch at the Nihility Devouring Flame. The overwhelming momentum broke through the endless black flames, and a torrent of Heavenly Flames surged out, which even the black hole-like vortex of the Nihility Devouring Flame could not stop.

The Nihility Devouring Flame's pupils suddenly contracted, and it recklessly activated its Origin Fire Seed. The black flames in the sky also frantically compressed around the Nihility Devouring Flame as its core, forming a vortex about ten feet in size.

The torrent of flames crashed fiercely against the vortex, but the intense energy did not erupt at all. Instead, it slowed down abruptly, was gradually dissolved by the vortex, and was finally released into the void.

Undeterred by his failed attack, Xiao Yan simply took a step forward and threw another punch!

Another torrent of flames, seemingly capable of shattering the heavens, swept across the distance between the two in an instant, giving the vortex no chance to breathe and once again challenging its limits.

"Boom!"

This time, the Nihility Devouring Flame could no longer resist. The vortex trembled violently, and the space within thousands of feet around it was completely shattered. Its originally perfectly regular spherical shape also became much more illusory.

Xiao Yan stepped into the void, walking forward step by step. With each step, he threw a punch. The continuous power-gathering punches made the heavens and World Energy boil.

Xiao Yan's speed increased, and the vortex trembled more and more violently, as if it could no longer be maintained. The irregular twisting caused the vortex to expand continuously.

The Nihility Devouring Flame also risked its life, devouring countless raging flames. Xiao Yan's flames were compressed to a certain limit by the Nihility Devouring Flame.

The continuous confrontation lasted for an unknown period of time, perhaps not long, but the destructive power of each collision was enough to terrify everyone.

Until a certain moment, the Devouring Power of the Nihility Devouring Flame reached its saturation. The vortex, which had been passively defending itself, left a dark trail and flashed in front of Xiao Yan.

"Boom!"

A real sun appeared on the battlefield.

Within a radius of a thousand miles, those who were not at the level of Dou Sheng instantly evaporated, and even those who reached the level of Dou Sheng only sensed the deadly danger, abandoned their opponents, and fled at top speed.

Even the two at their peak, the dragon and the demon, were taken aback by this grand outburst and unanimously devoted a portion of their strength to suppressing it.

The Hun Tiandi was reminded of Xiao Xuan, who had nearly died a thousand years ago and detonated the Heavenly Flame Origin.

The raging flames showed no signs of abating, and vast swathes of land were burned to nothingness under the terrifying heat. Even areas thousands of miles away were melted by the escaping flames.

This Heavenly Flames, representing the World Will, is a great weakening force for the Soul Clan —most of the Soul Clan's cultivation techniques are inclined towards the cold and eerie, and are restrained by the Heavenly Flames.

Especially the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul, who was summoned by four Living Dead who defied the laws of nature and was also a ghost, was undoubtedly doubly restrained.

On the other hand, although most Magical Beast do not like Heavenly Flames, Zhu Kun's physical body is extremely strong and can withstand high temperatures.

With one side gaining and the other losing, the previously balanced situation began to collapse.

Of course, even without this unexpected turn of events, as time went on, the life force of the Living Dead would be exhausted, the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul would dissipate, and the Hun Tiandi would still be unable to withstand the combined attack of two Peak Dou Saints.

"Puff..."

A sigh of despair rang out, for the weakest of the four Living Dead, the Eight-star Dou Sheng Initial Stage, had completely lost his last shred of life.

With one less Dou Sheng serving as the core of the formation, the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul was immediately affected, its figure becoming illusory and flickering as if about to dissipate.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhu Kun transformed his right hand into a dragon claw, severing the scythe in the Soul Emperor's hand and striking it hard into his chest.

The Soul Emperor Remnant Soul grew increasingly dim. Even a living Dou Emperor would find it extremely difficult to withstand a full-force attack from a fully-developed Ancient Void Dragon Emperor.

Just then, something happened that shocked both Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun.

Hun Tiandi stabbed Soul Emperor in the back!

The Soul Clan has always possessed Secret Technique for devouring souls to enhance combat power. Although the duration is short and the backlash is extremely severe, the increase in combat power during the duration of the Secret Technique is terrifyingly extreme.

Clearly, the Hun Tiandi knew that the Soul Clan was in dire straits, so he chose to lick the knife and kill his ancestor.

The Soul Emperor Remnant Soul seemed to have anticipated this, and after remarking, "As expected of a descendant of my Soul Clan," it extinguished the Dou Di Bloodline within the Hun Tiandi's body with a single thought.

It almost caused Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun's brains to shut down.

But the Hun Tiandi still succeeded.

Despite having his Dou Di Bloodline forcibly erased, his physical body severely injured, and constantly spitting blood, Hun Tiandi still successfully devoured the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul. His aura as a Peak of Nine-Star Dou Sheng rose to another level, as if he had touched the threshold of Dou Emperor.

Just like Xiao Xuan, who absorbed the Dou Di Bloodline a thousand years ago, he can be called a "False Emperor".

Gu Yuan took a deep breath. After all, Zhu Kun was an outsider, and he couldn't expect him to put in too much effort. Therefore, he chose to burn his own Dou Di Bloodline and fully activate his Clan Mark in order to gain more power.

Seeing this, Zhu Kun did not retreat to wait for the Hun Tiandi's backlash, but chose to hold him off from the sidelines and buy time...

Meanwhile, the battle between Xiao Yan and the Nihility Devouring Flame was not over.

The raging fire waves continued to surge, yet they were cooling down at an abnormally rapid pace.

The two figures reappeared in the sea of fire at the same time, and began to absorb the scattered flames to restore their Dou Qi.

The Nihility Devouring Flame could barely maintain its human form anymore; it was now a twisted, pitch-black flame, mindlessly devouring the surrounding flames.

Xiao Yan's face was also pale, and his powerful body, which could withstand the Heavenly Flames, was riddled with holes.

At the moment of the explosion, the Nihility Devouring Flame escaped its origin, and Xiao Yan also summoned the Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Wing to avoid the center area before the Nihility Devouring Flame could react.

However, the power of the mixed Heavenly Flames was ultimately too great, and neither side could withstand it head-on, yet both still suffered considerable injuries.

The Nihility Devouring Flame suffered from the depletion of its Dou Qi and damage to its Origin Fire Seed and Soul Origin, while Xiao Yan suffered from the excessive consumption of its Destruction Fire Body and the backlash caused by pushing the Heavenly Fire Three Profound Transformations to its limit.

However, compared to the Nihility Devouring Flame, which was almost entirely driven by instinct, Xiao Yan was the one who woke up this time.

Xiao Yan took a breath, and the tangled wounds inside his body ignited with emerald green Life Spirit Flame. The wounds on his body, which had been attacked by the fire waves, were ignited with purplish-black Three Thousand Burning Flame. His Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Wing on his back fluttered, and he floated towards the invisible Black Fire Seed.

At this moment, Xiao Yan's Dou Qi was only 30% remaining, making it virtually impossible for him to suppress the Nihility Devouring Flame, the Origin Fire Seed, even if his Soul Origin fell into slumber.

Fortunately, after refining the Soul of the Heavenly Tomb, Xiao Yan gained control of the Heavenly Tomb Space and directly sealed the fire seed inside, suppressing it with the entire Heavenly Tomb Space, and would deal with it after the war ended.

After everything was done, Xiao Yan looked towards the core battlefield. The Hun Tiandi was coughing up blood while pressing Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun to fight. Gu Yuan was coughing up blood while exchanging blows with the Hun Tiandi. Zhu Kun was helping Gu Yuan to defend against and deflect some of the Hun Tiandi's attacks.

In addition, Dou Zun are falling every moment.

Now is not the time to rest. Xiao Yan to stay alert and began walking around the scene. The special rules of the Heavenly Tomb intervened through Xiao Yan, gathering the souls of Dou Zun who had reached the required strength.

Of course, he would also deal with any Soul Clan Dou Sheng he encountered.

Although Xiao Yan currently extremely weak, the combination of his Emperor Realm Soul, Seven Star Dou Sheng, and Heavenly Flames means that anyone whose strength has not reached the Seven Star Dou Sheng is simply no match for him.

As time went on, the Gu Clan gained more and more advantages.

None of the Soul Clan's high-level forces— Hun Tiandi, Nihility Devouring Flame, and the four Living Dead —were able to join the chaotic battle. Meanwhile, the Gu Clan's Black Annihilation King and the Ancient Clan Three Immortals who had broken through by consuming the Dragon Phoenix Blood were all Eight-star Dou Sheng, requiring several Seven Star Dou Sheng to restrain them.

Xun'er is also a Seven Star Dou Sheng who has refined the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, so she also needs a Seven Star Dou Sheng to lead the way, assisted by several Six-star Dou Sheng to resist.

This resulted in the Soul Clan, apart from the core battlefield of the Hun Tiandi, engaging in a battle of attrition against stronger opponents from top to bottom, waiting for their Patriarch to win.

The Soul Clan does indeed have many hidden powerhouses, but the loss of high-end combat strength is far too significant.

Xiao Yan is now an exceptionally powerful fighter, and wherever he goes, the Soul Clan suffers a crushing defeat, utterly powerless to retaliate...

The Hun Tiandi was ultimately defeated.

Although he devoured the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul, the injuries to his physical body caused by having his bloodline extracted were a constant hindrance.

The sheer power of the force accelerated the collapse of the physical body.

Gu Yuan burned his Dou Di Bloodline to gain power, and with the help of Zhu Kun, he managed to hold out until the Hun Tiandi's physical body disintegrated before his Bloodline Power was completely burned out.

Without the protection of a physical body, the Hun Tiandi's Soul Power, which had become twisted and frenzied from forcibly devouring the Soul Emperor Remnant Soul, completely lost control and suffered a severe backlash. His original Emperor Realm Soul even declined to the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection.

It was erased by Gu Yuan with his last bit of strength.

The defeat and death of the Hun Tiandi shattered the faith of all the Soul Clan on the battlefield.

They no longer wanted to resist and scattered like birds, all trying to run faster than the others.

Some even surrendered outright, willing to reveal the location of the Soul Clan's treasure vault in exchange for their lives.

Gu Yuan certainly wanted to eliminate the threat completely, but the complete extermination of the Soul Clan would be a considerable burden for the Gu Clan. It would be better to consolidate the gains—since the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion was about to be opened, the Gu Clan would soon have a Dou Emperor, so there was no need to worry about the Soul Clan causing trouble.

One year later.

During this period, Xiao Yan spent all his time in the Heavenly Tomb. First, he refined the Nihility Devouring Flame, and then he killed the Soul Clan Dou Sheng energy body in the Heavenly Tomb Third Layer again, breaking through to the Eight-star Dou Sheng in one fell swoop.

The Gu Clan emptied most of the ancient books and Medicinal Herbs from the Soul Realm, and some went into seclusion to cultivate, while others healed their wounds, and gradually peace was restored.

Gu Yuan's injuries have largely healed, but his original Divine Bloodline has dropped to the first grade. It will probably take him hundreds of years to recover and return to the divine-grade level.

Old Yao returned to the Medicine Realm —although the Yao Clan had been slaughtered by the Hun Tiandi, the Nihility Devouring Flame was under attack at the time, time was short, and there were too many descendants, so the Hun Tiandi only took away the Tou She Ancient God Jade, the souls of those above the Half-Saint, and the neighboring Elder Shennong.

Now that Old Yao possesses the strength of Dou Sheng, he naturally became the Patriarch of the Yao Clan. Every day, he grits his teeth and deals with clan affairs, wanting to quit but unable to let go.

Zhu Kun went to great lengths to reunite the Four Dragon Islands, set up Formation to recall the Ancient Void Dragon that had fled into the void due to the division of its race, and at the same time, he cultivated a good relationship with Zi Yan.

Yao Xiaotian continued to act as the local tyrant of the Nine Nether Nether Python Clan and even the Beast Region —neither Gu Yuan nor Zhu Kun had any interest in paying him any attention.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

On this day, Zhu Kun came to visit the Gu Clan and urged Gu Yuan to open the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion.

After all, apart from Zhu Kun, only Zi Yan in the Ancient Void Dragon Clan has decent potential, but this little girl is extremely lazy, and it will probably take several thousand years for her to reach the Peak Dou Saint.

The Gu Clan has two Peak Dou Saint candidates and a top-tier Heavenly Flames, and their strength at all stages is superior to that of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.

Since this matter concerns the future of the Dou Emperor and the long-term prosperity and decline of the entire clan, Zhu Kun could not help but be cautious.

Although Gu Yuan wanted to wait a little longer, he could understand Zhu Kun's anxious mood, so he took the Tou She Ancient God that he had snatched back from the Hun Tiandi and led Xiao Yan Xun'er to the Northwest Continent.

Zhu Kun also brought Zi Yan along.

Jia Nan Academy remains as it was when the various races fought over the Fallen Heart Flame, with rolling lava constantly flowing, except that a fire-attribute sect has been added to the surrounding area.

Ignoring them, the three people and two dragons ventured deep into the lava, passing the Lizardman tribe, and arrived at the Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion, which was of unknown depth.

The Emperor Grade Nascent Pill in the cave was quite powerful, and with the blessing of that Origin Emperor Qi, it faintly surpassed the limit of the Dou Sheng.

But it is ultimately just a Pills, which is restrained by the Heavenly Flames.

Xiao Yan lent the Nihility Devouring Flame to Zhu Kun, Xun'er gave the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame to Gu Yuan. The two peak Peak Dou Saint, together with the two top-tier Heavenly Flames, suppressed the Emperor Grade Nascent Pill in an instant.

The other Dou Emperor Inheritance was the statue at the end of the Exotic Flame Plaza. Several people took turns trying to get it, but in the end, Xun'er, who had refined the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, caused the statue to resonate.

Therefore, the Emperor Grade Nascent Pill was given to Zhu Kun.

Zhu Kun was somewhat troubled, as the power of the Emperor Grade Nascent Pill was insufficient for him to directly break through to the Dou Emperor —he needed to complete the pill first.

Zhu Kun could only rely on the talents of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan to begin his treasure hunt.

Of course, this time, Zhu Kun brought Zi Yan with him, and they would return to Void Dragon Island every now and then.

Xun'er didn't rush to accept the inheritance, but continued to cultivate step by step—it was too risky to directly skip two stars and rush to become Dou Emperor with the level of Seven Star Dou Sheng.

Xiao Yan finally made a name for himself and settled the Xiao Family on a piece of land in the Central Continent, with Xiao Chen personally in charge, replacing the Soul Hall's position in the Central Continent.

The Xiao Family only has two capable fighters, but those two are enough to overturn the entire Yita, Erzong Three Valleys, Four Directions Pavilion.

Decades later.

An incomparably powerful aura erupted from the Ancient Realm, enveloping the entire Dou Qi Continent.

Gu Yuan's Dou Di Bloodline was instantly restored, even surpassing its previous peak. Those descendants who were originally Dou Wang or Dou Emperor also felt that the Bloodline Power had become more concentrated, and their original bottlenecks seemed to shatter at any moment, ready to be broken through.

Xiao Yan came to greet her immediately. Xun'er was still as graceful, elegant, and radiant as ever, almost too perfect to be real.

Xun'er's gaze immediately focused on Xiao Yan, ignoring the many clansmen who had come to offer their congratulations. A playful smile appeared on her face as she leaned close to Xiao Yan and teased him:

"Brother Xiao Yan, you're probably going to be living off your wife for the rest of your life, aren't you?"
