"By order of the clan chief, please have the Clan Elders travel to the Stone Realm to assist Lord Void in annihilating the Stone Clan and seizing the Tou She Ancient God Jade from their possession!"

The voice of the Hun Jing also entered the blood coffin at this moment.

Then, a sudden silence fell over the surroundings.

"Clatter"

After a while, a withered hand suddenly emerged from the blood coffin and rested on the open rim of the coffin.

Then, an old figure, as thin as skin and bones, slowly sat up from the blood coffin.

At first, its eyes were tightly closed, and then it slowly opened them.

Those eyes were devoid of any color, giving the impression that they were already dead.

Even the old man himself exuded a strong aura of death!

Anyone who didn't know better would think the old man was dead at first glance.

However, Hun Jing, one of the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, dared not underestimate the old man before him.

Because the aura emanating from the other party was subtly superior to his!

It should be noted that the cultivation levels of the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan have all reached the Late-Stage Seven-Star Dou Saint!

The old man before them possessed an aura even stronger than that of Hun Jing, indicating that his strength had already reached the eighth level.

Hun Yuantian, one of the four elders of the Hun Clan, has the cultivation level of Early Eight-Star Dou Saint!

A thousand years ago, he was killed by Xiao Xuan in the battle in which the Hun Clan destroyed the Xiao Clan.

Of course, it wasn't just Hun Yuantian; the number of the Hun Clan powerhouses who died at Xiao Xuan's hands a thousand years ago was countless.

Hun Yuantian is just one of the more famous ones.

Like the Departed Soul Hall we're in right now.

Lying within these countless coffins are the powerful members of the Hun Clan who died unnatural deaths.

However, the Hun Clan, through their secret techniques, allowed these powerful individuals who had died unnaturally to continue living in this world in another way.

They are what are known as the Hun Clan, the living dead.

These undead members of the Hun Clan are neither truly alive nor completely dead.

Their continued existence in this state comes at a price.

First, to allow them to live in this state, the Hun Clan would need to expend a great deal of precious resources.

Secondly, they cannot maintain peak combat power for extended periods.

Take, for example, Hun Yuantian, who was just awakened by the Hun Jing. His peak combat strength is indeed at the Early Eight-Star Dou Saint.

However, if Hun Yuantian is unable to defeat his opponent for a long time during a battle, his strength will gradually decline until he eventually exhausts himself to death!

Although Hun Yuantian's realm is higher than Hun Jing's, if the two were to fight, Hun Yuantian would most likely lose to Hun Jing.

However, since Hun Yuantian was at his peak, he could unleash the strength of Early Eight-Star Dou Saint.

In other words, if the opponent is stronger than Hun Yuantian, then Hun Yuantian can play a greater role than Hun Jing.

Previously, Hun Yin only knew that Xiao Lin was High-Star Dou Sheng, but didn't know the specifics.

In addition, the Hun Clan's high-level combat power, such as the Hun Tiandi himself and the Four Demon Saints, has already been targeted by the Gu Clan.

That's why he thought of waking up Hun Yuantian as a precaution.

"The Stone Clan? Strange, with Lord Void's strength, surely he can't defeat a Stone Clan whose Dou Emperor Bloodline is nearing its end?"

Hun Yuantian's tone carried obvious doubt.

The undead of the Hun Clan generally remain asleep unless absolutely necessary, in order to reduce the energy expenditure of their activities.

Therefore, they are not very clear about many things in the outside world.

After all, given their condition, how could they possibly have time to care about these things?

When Hun Yuantian was awakened last time, he only knew that the Stone Clan was already extremely weak, not much better than the Ling Clan.

Logically speaking, Lord Void should have been able to easily annihilate the Stone Clan.

It's no wonder that Hun Yuantian was confused.

Hun Jing: "... An unexpected situation has arisen. The remnants of the Ling Clan have received the protection of a high-star Dou Sheng Expert, who most likely already knows about the Hun Clan's annihilation of the Ling Clan."

Therefore, the existence of the other party may interfere with the actions of the Lord Void.

Awakening the Clan Elders was merely a precaution.

Immediately afterwards, Hun Jing gave Hun Yuantian a general account of what happened between Xiao Lin and the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.

After listening, Hun Yuantian frowned slightly.

"Heh, Lin Xiao, huh? Who knew where this guy came from? He actually cultivated to the High-Star Dou Sheng realm without anyone noticing. It seems the Soul Hall has been somewhat negligent these past few years..."

After giving a forced smile, Hun Yuantian's tone revealed obvious dissatisfaction.

To be honest, Hun Yuantian's words really hit Hun Jing's sweet spot!

He also felt that the Soul Hall was becoming increasingly derelict in its duties.

However, with the clan leader and Nihility Devouring Flame standing behind Hun Miesheng, he couldn't say it outright.

Even Hun Yuantian, one of the Four Elders of the Soul Clan, is now dissatisfied with the Soul Hall, which Hun Jing is happy to see.

"Alright, I understand. Then I'll make the trip. As for the Soul Hall's dereliction of duty, I'll mention it to the clan leader and Lord Void afterward."

At this moment, Hun Yuantian had completely emerged from the blood coffin.

Just like his skeletal face, his body was also withered and dry.

If you wrap it in another layer of bandages, it'll probably turn into a complete mummy.

"Hehe~, then I'll have to trouble the Clan Elder!"

Hun Jing then let out a strange laugh and said...

Seeing this, Hun Yuantian nodded.

"Buzz~"

As the ripples in the Void appeared, by the time the Hun Jing looked back at him, Hun Yuantian's figure had already left the Departed Soul Hall.

Having anticipated this, Hun Jing was not surprised and quietly withdrew from the Departed Soul Hall.

Meanwhile, the Stone Clan, who were being plotted against by the Hun Clan, were completely unaware that they were about to face a great calamity!

Beyond the Gu Realm of the Gu Clan.

After exchanging pleasantries with the other members of the Emperor Clan, Shi Yun, Yan Longzi, and Elder Yan Sheng, the Intermediate Half-Saint leader of the Stone Clan, also embarked on their journey home.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh"

Three streaks of gray light pierced the sky.

Compared to before entering the Heavenly Tomb for training, both Shi Yun and Yan Longzi have improved their strength by two stars this time, which is quite remarkable.

Currently, one of them is Nine-Star Dou Venerable, and the other is Eight-Star Dou Venerable.

Yan Sheng looked at the two prodigies of his clan, a look of satisfaction on his face.

"Shi Yun and Yan Longzi, you two performed well on this trip to the Heavenly Tomb! I imagine that when you return to the clan, the clan leader and the other Elders will give you additional rewards!"

On the way back to the Stone Clan's Stone Realm, Yan Sheng couldn't help but praise it.

The bloodline of the Stone Clan's Dou Emperor Bloodline is severely depleted.

Shi Yun and Yan Longzi were the last of the Stone Clan's prodigies.

After those two, no one in the Stone Clan had reached the Tier Seven in terms of bloodline; only a few barely reached the Tier Six.

It can be said that, in the eyes of the Stone Clan, the Shi Yun and the Yan Longzi represent the future of the Stone Clan!
