Gu Yuan vs. Hun Tiandi

The Hun Tiandi smiled, and the two chatted as if they were having a casual, everyday conversation—it was extremely calm and unhurried.

"Was the disappearance of the Hun Tiandi, the Spirit Clan, the Stone Clan, and the Medicine Clan truly the work of your Soul Clan?"

Lei Ying shouted sternly. Although he knew some of the hidden details, he still wanted to ask questions since he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

Some answers are enough to know in one's heart...

The Hun Tiandi chuckled casually, his eyes slowly sweeping across the area below. Anyone whose gaze fell upon him felt an uncontrollable chill emanating from the depths of their soul. Although his gaze seemed peaceful, beneath that peace surged an emotionless coldness, as if in his eyes, all things in heaven and earth were as insignificant as weeds.

His gaze swept across the crowd, but he did not spot the other target of his trip. The Hun Tiandi's expression changed slightly.

"It really was you who did it!"

Upon hearing Hun Tiandi's reply, Lei Ying and Yan Jin's expressions instantly darkened.

"The last Devouring Spirit Devouring King of the Tunling Clan was probably devoured by the Nihility Devouring Flame, right? And that's probably why the Soul Clan has continued to exist to this day."

Gu Yuan's gaze suddenly fell on the figure behind the Hun Tiandi, enveloped in Black Flame, and he murmured, "If I had known this would happen, I should have dealt with you back then..."

"Heh heh, Gu Yuan, you overestimate yourself. It's true you could defeat me back then, but you're not capable of completely destroying me!"

Upon hearing Gu Yuan's words, the Nihility Devouring Flame's entire body surged with Black Flame, and it let out a strange laugh:

"And I have to thank you for that. If it weren't for this thousand-year seclusion, I probably wouldn't have been able to reach the Nine Star Dou Sheng, and even my soul wouldn't have reached the Emperor Realm!"

Upon Nihility Devouring Flame this, almost everyone present, except for the high-ranking members who already knew the truth, changed their expressions. Nine Star Dou Sheng was one of the most powerful beings in this world. If that were the case, wouldn't the Soul Clan possess two Nine Star Dou Sheng?

"I already knew about this..." Gu Yuan said calmly, "You're just Nine Star Dou Sheng Early Stage. If I have the chance, I will seal you away forever." → Chao

"Perhaps you'll never get this opportunity..." The Hun Tiandi chuckled softly.

"Hun Tiandi, if your sudden arrival here today is intended to attack my Ancient Clan, perhaps these people are not enough."

Gu Yuan remained composed, displaying the demeanor of a clan leader.

"Hmm, right now... it's not quite enough." The Hun Tiandi nodded with a smile, without arguing. Every Ancient Clan had methods similar to the Medicine Emperor's Remnant Soul, and the Ancient Clan were no exception. It was indeed difficult to eliminate the Ancient Clan in the Ancient Realm.

"Clan Leader Gu Yuan, be careful, it might be a trap!"

In the sky, Yan Jin said in a deep voice, "The situation is very strange. Although the Soul Clan and others have appeared, they show no signs of making a move. However, these guys would never do something so useless. They must have their own purpose in doing so."

In response to Yan Jin's reminder, the Hun Tiandi smiled slightly, put his hands behind his back, and suddenly lifted Xiao Ming.

"I heard that the Lord of Heavenly Court has also arrived in the Ancient Realm, but I haven't seen him."

"Xiao Ming?" Gu Yuan, preoccupied with what the Hun Tiandi was up to, didn't bother to answer the Hun Tiandi's question.

No comment!

"Has Xiao Ming already left? Or rather, is he in the Heaven Tomb?" The Hun Tiandi wasn't annoyed; he simply guessed calmly.

Gu Yuan frowned, and his expression suddenly changed.

Wait! Xiao Ming? The Hun Tiandi's goal is the Ancient Jade?!

Before Gu Yuan could even process what was happening, a sharp, urgent whistle suddenly echoed from the depths of the mountains— the Ancestral Hall's alarm!

"Waaah!"

A piercing scream echoed through the sky, causing the expressions on everyone's faces to change drastically.

"Hun Tiandi!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan's face turned cold, his gaze fixed on the Hun Tiandi. The sky suddenly darkened considerably at this moment, and a vast amount of Heaven and Earth Energy roared behind him, connecting the sky and the earth. From a distance, it looked like an endless Energy Tide, with the sound of crashing waves never ceasing.

Energy Tide, generally speaking, only take shape during extraordinary Heaven and Earth Anomaly. Such a magnificent scene is beyond the reach of humankind. However, this Energy Tide, which is a rare sight even after a hundred years, was condensed by Gu Yuan with a mere thought. This is how terrifying the strength of Nine Star Dou Sheng is.

The endless Energy Tide surged and churned, and the pressure that spread out made even the four Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, including Hun Yan, look extremely solemn.

They had no doubt that if they were to make a move, they would likely not last more than a few rounds against Gu Yuan; their bodies and even their souls would crumble into nothingness under that terrifying pressure.

Now, in this world, the only ones who remain unmoved by the immense pressure of Gu Yuan summoning the Heaven and Earth Tide are Hun Tiandi and Nihility Devouring Flame.

"Clan Leader, Elder Gu Yang injured the Ancestral Hall Elder and stole the Ancient Jade!"

Just as Gu Yuan's face turned icy cold, a streak of light suddenly flashed out from the depths of the mountain range, and a somewhat disheveled figure swiftly flew out, shouting mournfully.

"What?!" Upon hearing this shout, the entire Ancient Clan was thrown into turmoil, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"Gu Yang is the Second Elder of the Ancestral Hall, guarding Ancestral Hall for over a hundred years, and has always been loyal to our Ancient Clan. How could he possibly steal the Ancient Jade and flee?"

"Was this your doing?"

Gu Yuan's cold gaze fell upon the smiling Hun Tiandi, and he slowly spoke. (Tide)

The Hun Tiandi smiled slightly but did not speak. He also showed no intention of leaving, his gaze fixed on Gu Yuan. As long as he stood there, even Gu Yuan would not dare to turn away, for the latter understood that if he left, no one here would be able to stop him...

Gu Yuan naturally understood the Hun Tiandi's thoughts, and the coldness on his face gradually subsided.

"Seal off the Ancient Realm space! Gu Dao, you three lead the Black Annihilation Army and launch a search. Find Gu Yang for me!" Gu Yuan shouted.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the Three Immortals of the Ancient Clan immediately responded. However, just as the three were about to move, the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan behind the Hun Tiandi flew out, seemingly intending to stop them.

"Hehe, Gu Yuan, these people can't leave..." Hun Tiandi said with a smile.

"This isn't your decision to make!" Chao

Gu Yuan said coldly, and then he took a step forward. The endless Energy Tide behind him surged up and transformed into a Tidal Giant Hand tens of thousands of feet long, which slammed down on the Hun Tiandi.

Where the palm strike passed, the space itself trembled violently. Even a casual strike from such a powerful expert could easily tear apart a space!

"Hmm, so you finally couldn't resist making a move, but you should know that it won't have much effect on me."

Seeing Gu Yuan's earth-shattering attack, the Hun Tiandi smiled, raised his palm, and a black hole formed in his palm. Then, at an astonishing speed, it expanded to a size of ten thousand feet, directly encompassing this entire world.

High in the sky, the Tidal Giant Hand collided violently with the black hole. There was no earth-shattering roar, only the quietly collapsing Spatial Patterns and the overflowing destructive power.

When Gu Yuan actually attacked the Hun Tiandi, Yan Jin and Lei Ying's faces twitched slightly. Their eyes met, and they suddenly nodded in agreement.

"Let's do it!" Chao

With a low shout, Yan Jin and the two of them shot out almost simultaneously. The terrifying aura of the eight-star Dou Sheng soared into the sky, and the pressure seemed to make even the space itself creak.

The combined power of these two was considerable; after all, if we exclude the Nine Star Dou Sheng, they would probably be the strongest beings on this continent!

"Hey, why are you two in such a hurry? If you want to fight, I'll play with you."

Just as Yan Jin and the other made their move, the Nihility Devouring Flame, which had been standing still, smiled, took a step, and appeared in front of the two of them, traversing space. Black Flame surged continuously from its body, eventually transforming into several enormous black dragons that coiled around it, their roars shaking the heavens.

"Hateful!"

Seeing Nihility Devouring Flame make its move, Yan Jin and the other looked grim. They were both only at the Eight Star Late Stage, and they were afraid that they really couldn't defeat Nihility Devouring Flame, who Nine Star Early Stage and Emperor Realm Soul.

"In that case, as long as you reveal Xiao Ming's whereabouts, I'll spare your lives later, how about it?" Nihility Devouring Flame sneered.
