Back on the Dou Qi Continent, he learned that Gu Xun'er had returned and that her attacks had pushed the Soul Clan into a precarious position, so he headed to the clan to assess the situation.

• Hun Tiandi recognized the formation and sent a vast net of black chains toward the altar, weakening its radiance.

The Soul Clan and Gu Clan clashed as Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan fought, while Hun Changqing covertly tried to keep the armies evenly matched. The Gu Clan’s hidden elders trapped Hun Changqing in a formation, but he broke free enough to kill the old man restraining him.

• Hun Tiandi attacked the Gu Clan’s Great Annihilation Emperor Formation with a Black Web, then left Hun Changqing to reinforce it while he fought Gu Yuan.
