Chapter 286 The Riot at Thunder Pool
In the pitch-black void, two figures sped along, strange, silvery-white spatial power flashing past them from time to time, illuminating their faces. It was Lin Feng and Elder Qingshan.
Given Lin Feng's cultivation level, Elder Qingshan, at the Dou Sheng level, naturally couldn't transform into an ancient dragon to serve as his mount.
However, with Lin Feng's seventh-level Dou Zun strength, coupled with years of refining the Dragon Emperor's blood essence and absorbing Zhu Kun's many insights into space,
Lin Feng's current spatial manipulation was even more formidable than that of ordinary half-saints.
The further they advanced, the farther they got from Dragon Island, the more chaotic the space became.
There were at least ten instances of spatial collapse that threatened Dou Zun levels, and countless smaller spatial rifts that could easily tear apart Dou Zong levels. Fortunately
, both Lin Feng and Elder Qingshan were masters of spatial manipulation, and they weren't alarmed by these changes.
Within the pitch-black space, the measure of time seemed to become somewhat ambiguous. After an unknown amount of time, strange lights appeared before the two.
"Boom!"
Just as they glimpsed the strange silver light, a series of deafening thunderclaps rapidly resounded. In Lin Feng's perception, the energy fluctuations ahead were extremely chaotic.
Even more terrifying, his Heavenly Realm-level soul perception sensed a terrifying destructive wave deep within the silver light.
It seemed capable of killing him in an instant!
"Black Demon Lightning, and Nine Profound Golden Lightning?"
Lin Feng stood outside the raging thunder, a colossal form seemingly flashing in his deep eyes, surrounded by countless terrifying black lightning bolts.
"Your Highness, this is the Spatial Thunder Pool. The power of the thunder increases progressively from the outside in."
The Grand Elder of Green Mountain stood in the void, gazing into the depths of the thunder, a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
"With Your Highness's strength, the outer perimeter of this Spatial Thunder Pool is entirely yours to roam."
"However, if you venture further into the Spatial Thunder Pool, you will encounter Black Demon Thunder, powerful enough to threaten even a Dou Sheng expert."
"If you encounter such lightning, Your Highness, please crush my spatial jade slip immediately!"
"And in the deepest part of the Thunder Pool, Your Highness should not harbor too much curiosity; even I feel fear there!"
After giving these instructions, Elder Qingshan slowly closed his eyes, clearly intending to protect Lin Feng and await his emergence from seclusion.
He also intended to intervene promptly should Lin Feng face danger.
Seeing this, Lin Feng did not hesitate, leaping forward and instantly disappearing into the Thunder Pool.
"Clan Chief Huang Tian, has the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan truly split?"
From within the dark chamber, an incredulous voice rang out; it was Yao Xiaotian, the last remaining Dou Sheng expert of the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan!
"Let the main character of today answer that question!"
Huang Tian slowly raised his head, and several flames lit up simultaneously within the secret chamber, illuminating several figures clad in black cloaks beside him.
"Who are these gentlemen?"
"Hehehe, Clan Chief Yao Xiaotian, I've long admired your name, how have you been!"
A strange laugh echoed within the secret chamber, and one of the mysterious figures revealed his face—it was none other than the Great Celestial Venerable of the Soul Palace, a two-star Dou Sheng level expert!
"The Soul Palace!"
Yao Xiaotian's voice carried a hint of understanding. Without the Soul Palace's help, Huang Tian's strength alone was no match for the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.
After all, Huang Tian, the strongest member of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, had just been defeated by a powerful member of the Ancient Dragon Clan in the ancient ruins not long ago.
As the Great Celestial Venerable of the Soul Palace lowered his cloak, the remaining figures also revealed themselves one by one.
"Hun Miesheng, Lord of the Soul Hall, wait, who are you three?"
When Yao Xiaotian saw Hun Miesheng, he breathed a sigh of relief. Even though he was in the Beast Domain, he still knew the reputation of this super strong person.
With Hun Miesheng and Huang Tian leading the way, Yao Xiaotian felt that this trip with the Ancient Void Dragon was finally somewhat guaranteed.
However, when he saw the three burly figures, Yao Xiaotian was greatly surprised.
"This aura, is it the Ancient Void Dragon!?"
"The strongest of the Nine Netherworld Pythons is only a one-star Dou Sheng?"
The Northern Dragon King slowly raised his head, and a terrifying dragon might slowly rose from his body, enveloping Yao Xiaotian and making his body creak.
"Enough!"
Just then, Hun Miesheng shouted loudly, and a black mist rose, interrupting the Northern Dragon King's show of force.
"A five-star Dou Sheng, worthy of being the Lord of the Soul Hall!"
Sensing Hun Miesheng's powerful strength, the Northern Dragon King also slowly withdrew his dragon might, his expression unchanged.
However, deep within his heart, an evil thought grew stronger.
"Huff!"
Only after Long Wei left did Yao Xiaotian realize that his back was covered in cold sweat, and he was panting heavily.
He remained silent, simply keeping his head down, a flash of resentment in his eyes.
"Northern Dragon King, as the initiator of this alliance, tell me your plan!"
Huang Tian naturally noticed Yao Xiaotian's resentment, but the Nine Netherworld Python's strength was so limited that even if it were torn apart, it wouldn't be able to cause the slightest harm to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.
The reason he was included in this alliance was simply to use him as cannon fodder!
"Without even a mid-level Dou Sheng, it's time for the Nine Nether Earth Python to relinquish its position as the overlord of the Beast Domain. If we can seize this opportunity to annihilate the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan will be able to dominate the Beast Domain!"
"If we are lucky enough to obtain the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, even the human imperial clans will not frighten me!"
"Since that's the case, I'll get straight to the point."
After a long while, the Northern Dragon King slowly stepped forward, looking at Hun Miesheng and Huang Tian, and spoke.
"What do you two think of my plan?"
"Northern Dragon King, are you really sure that the strongest person on Eastern Dragon Island is only Zhu Yan, who is at the five-star Dou Sheng realm?"
Hun Miesheng frowned. If there were stronger beings on Eastern Dragon Island, then they might fall into a trap.
"Moreover, the strongest person on your three dragon islands is only you, who has one foot in the four-star Dou Sheng realm. Why doesn't Eastern Dragon Island just annihilate you?"
As an outsider, Hun Miesheng remained relatively rational. Although he wanted to use this dragon-slaying plan to provide some cover for his clan's actions,
he would have to seriously consider it if the plan jeopardized his life.
"Hahaha!"
The Northern Dragon King laughed loudly, but he couldn't ignore Hun Miesheng, a five-star Dou Sheng level expert, just as he had ignored Yao Xiaotian.
"Soul Destroyer God, the sins I have committed are extremely grave within the Dragon Clan, deserving of the Dragon-Slaying Platform!"
"Do you think I would deceive you with such a thing?"
"This is my last chance! That old bastard Zhu Yan, if it weren't for guarding that damned brat, the three of us might already be dead!"
"However, as the king of this lineage, how can I sit idly by and wait for death? This time, I will definitely show that damned old bastard who the true king of the Dragon Clan is!"
The Northern Dragon King exuded domineering power tinged with a hint of madness. Behind him, the Southern and Western Dragon Kings were somewhat dissatisfied that the Northern Dragon King had represented their alliance without their consent.
However, they also knew that the three of them were now in the same boat. If they couldn't unite and seize this last opportunity, they would truly have no choice but to face the Dragon-Slaying Platform.
"Brother Hun, in my opinion, this plan is absolutely foolproof!"
Seeing that Hun Miesheng was still hesitant, Huang Tian became anxious. If the Ancient Dragon Clan seized the opportunity to absorb the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, a top-tier expert would rise to power in a very short time.
At that time, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix would once again be reduced to the lowly status of food, which Huang Tian could not accept under any circumstances. Now,
with Hun Miesheng, a five-star Dou Sheng level expert, joining the fight, it was the best opportunity to eliminate the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. How could Huang Tian let this opportunity slip by?
"Brother Huang Tian, what do you mean by that?"
"Brother Hun, as the Northern Dragon King said, if Eastern Dragon Island had two experts at the five-star Dou Sheng level or above, they would have already led their troops to eliminate them. Why hold back?"
"That makes sense!"
Hun Miesheng put his hands behind his back, pondered for a moment, and then slowly nodded.
"Since that's the case, to avoid any unforeseen complications, let's set off immediately and annihilate Donglong Island as quickly as possible!"
Seeing Hun Miesheng's decisiveness, Huang Tian and the three Dragon Kings were overjoyed and echoed his agreement, while Yao Xiaotian seemed to have been ignored.
After careful discussion, the group returned to their respective territories, summoned experts of at least Half-Saint level, and planned a blitzkrieg!
While Hun Miesheng, Huang Tian, and the others were on their way, Lin Feng was freely roaming the endless Void Thunder Pool, his aura rapidly increasing at a visible speed.
A hundred meters away, a row of more than a dozen pitch-black puppets stood silently in the void, their bodies crackling with lightning.
However, strangely, the terrifying lightning snakes, powerful enough to shatter even a Dou Zun expert, were instantly absorbed into his body upon impact.
The auras of the dozen powerful puppets were connected; after the lightning snakes entered the body of one of the puppets, their immense energy instantly split into more than a dozen streams and was completely absorbed.
"In just one month, have all the puppets obtained from the ancient ruins improved by a level?" Lin Feng murmured, recalling the
records of the Puppet Sect he had glimpsed in the ancient ruins about the Puppet Sect's most advanced training ground for puppeteers . However, even now, Lin Feng still hadn't examined the Puppet Sect's inheritance obtained from the Heavenly Saint. Before he could completely ensure the safety of the Puppet Sect's inheritance, or rather, the safety of the Heavenly Saint himself from ancient times, Lin Feng would absolutely not touch that inheritance. Lin Feng, however, was not lacking in any means! What he needed most was time. If given a hundred or even a thousand years, Lin Feng could even cooperate with the Soul Emperor to open the Ancient Emperor's Cave! Shaking his head, he dismissed these useless assumptions and slowly rose, his bones cracking and popping. "Half a month has passed, and I've fully adapted to the intensity of the lightning here. Perhaps it's time to venture deeper into the Void Thunder Pool!" Looking up at the depths of the Thunder Pool, Lin Feng's eyes blazed with fervor. Since refining the seventh-grade pill and accidentally absorbing the seventh-grade pill lightning, Lin Feng's body has undergone countless temperings by pill lightning. Coupled with the Thunder Clan's cultivation technique, "Thunderous Might Technique," obtained from Canaan Academy, Lin Feng's resistance to lightning energy is comparable to that of top Thunder Clan prodigies with the Thunder Emperor bloodline. Furthermore, a powerful Black Demon Lightning is sealed within his body, though it has been refined into pure lightning-attribute energy by the Pill Tower Ancestor. Compared to the terrifying lightning serpents of the Void Thunder Pool, aside from its terrifying destructive power, if Lin Feng's physical strength is sufficient, he could even rapidly complete his cultivation to the Dou Zun realm. After half a month of continuous tempering by lightning, Lin Feng's physical body had grown significantly stronger, now comparable to a fourth-rank Dou Zun level ancient dragon! Therefore, Lin Feng's absorption speed of the Black Demon Lightning within his body accelerated even further, and he would likely soon be able to advance to the eighth-rank Dou Zun realm! Having grasped the key, Lin Feng's figure flashed, heading deeper into the Void Lightning Pool. As Lin Feng ventured deeper, the wildly flying lightning snakes became increasingly terrifying; a single snake could instantly reduce a nine-star Dou Zun level expert to ashes. Within this Void Lightning Pool, there were countless lightning snakes of this magnitude; if they were to strike simultaneously, even a fifth-rank Dou Zun would be forced to flee in disarray. However, for Lin Feng now, the power of the lightning here was merely a tickle! Even without using lightning control techniques, Lin Feng could easily establish himself here with his physical body alone! Therefore, he didn't stop, continuing forward towards the powerful lightning he sensed. "Rumble!" In this world of rampant lightning, time seemed to stand still. After an unknown amount of time, Lin Feng finally stopped. Standing in the void, he gazed at the lightning bolts that occasionally flashed past him, carefully sensing their power before slowly nodding. "The power of a single lightning bolt is comparable to the full force of a third-stage Dou Zun expert?" "With lightning of this intensity, if I could endure it here for a month, I could probably quickly elevate my physical body to a level comparable to Dou Qi cultivation!" Although he was very satisfied with the cultivation environment, Lin Feng couldn't risk his life. A surge of powerful Dou Qi instantly erupted from his body. "Five Elements Life and Death Array, activate!" The five extremely powerful Sacred Beasts instantly appeared in this world of lightning, their forms shrinking to ten zhang in size, surrounding Lin Feng. A mysterious array rose beneath his feet, blocking the rampaging lightning bolts. After carefully sensing the energy, Lin Feng slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "This way, I can freely control the number of lightning serpents entering and exiting. Moreover, this array can also serve as an early warning system, preventing me from being too engrossed in cultivation and being attacked without warning!" Sitting cross-legged in the void, Lin Feng controlled the array to open a corner. A bolt of lightning, seeing the array appear in the void, curiously approached. The instant it drew near, a large energy hand instantly grabbed it and pulled it into the array, where Lin Feng quickly absorbed it. Half an hour later, this lightning serpent, comparable to the full-force attack of a third-stage Dou Zun expert, was completely refined and absorbed by Lin Feng. His physical body and Dou Qi realm both improved slightly. This wasn't because Lin Feng's absorption rate of the lightning serpent was low; it was simply that the energy required for the final step of Dou Zun, the Nine Revolutions to Sainthood, was simply too immense. Each advancement required the complete compression of previous energy; it could be said that the energy of a second-stage Dou Zun was several times that of a first-stage!
After all, compression isn't as simple as just turning one into two. If that were the case, one could simply consume an alchemist's pills or find rare and precious materials containing immense energy.
The loss during compression means that each compression involves a simultaneous increase in both quality and quantity, and also involves the use of soul power.
Therefore, those who have reached the Transcendent Dou Zun realm have their soul power fully integrated into their souls.
With the soul power of a mortal, it's impossible to control such powerful Dou Qi energy!
Of course, alchemists of the same level naturally have superior soul strength, even far exceeding it.
Having tasted success, Lin Feng performed the same operation again.
Although the lightning snakes in the Void Lightning Pool had miraculously taken form, they possessed little intelligence.
Lin Feng only needed to simply lure them—no, to activate his Lightning Control Technique—and they would consciously approach the Five Elements Life and Death Array.
Of course, without Lin Feng's strength, the consequence of doing so would be being reduced to ashes in the lightning pool.
Even the ashes were utterly destroyed by that overwhelming destructive power!
As this cycle repeated, Lin Feng's aura gradually rose. If nothing unexpected happened, he would surely continue cultivating until his own lightning energy reached saturation.
However, after an unknown period of cultivation, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes, a terrifying tremor jolting him awake.
His Heavenly Realm soul power probed outwards, and soon, a terrifying and chaotic energy appeared in his senses.
"The Thunder Pool is raging?"
Just then, a disheveled figure in gray robes appeared in his perception, and the aura emanating from that figure felt somewhat familiar.
"This feeling... is it the 'Thunderous Might Technique'?"
A name gradually appeared in his mind, and just then, a loud shout rang out from the figure's mouth:
"Thunder Clan junior, quickly follow this old man!"
Chapter 287. Candlelight Response?
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
"Boom boom boom!"
He fled, it chased; he fled again, it kept chasing, but it couldn't catch him.
After a full quarter of an hour of desperate escape, the terrifying Black Demon Lightning finally lost patience and returned to the depths of the lightning pool.
"Huff!"
The gray-robed elder gasped for breath, then burst into laughter, his unkempt old face flushed red.
"Hahaha, this damned Black Demon Lightning, I've finally gotten rid of it!"
After a while, the elder seemed to remember something, circling around Lin Feng a few times, clicking his tongue in admiration.
"You young man, are you a descendant or disciple of any elder in the clan? You're only in your early thirties, yet you've reached such a level."
"And your speed can even keep up with mine, could it be that your bloodline concentration is no less than the eighth rank?"
The gray-robed elder muttered to himself, completely ignoring the expression on his face.
"No, I've seen all the prodigies in the clan, and there's no one like you. But the cultivation technique you possess is indeed from the Thunder Clan. What's going on?"
The gray-robed elder scratched his head, his unkempt face showing a troubled expression.
Lin Feng already had a vague suspicion, and the elder's mutterings only confirmed it. He clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and said,
"Senior, you are the former Dean Mang Tianchi of Canaan Academy. I am a graduate of Canaan Academy and once obtained the 'Thunderous Might Technique' left by you in the library!" "
Perhaps, that's why you've mistaken me for someone else!"
"What!?"
After Lin Feng revealed his background, the gray-robed elder, Mang Tianchi, the former dean of Canaan Academy, suddenly exclaimed, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
A pair of large, black eyes stared wide-eyed, scrutinizing Lin Feng from head to toe, sometimes nodding and laughing heartily, sometimes shaking his head in distress.
This scene surprised Lin Feng. Although he already knew the old dean was unreliable, he hadn't expected him to be such a playful old man.
"Canaan Academy actually managed to cultivate a prodigy like you, no, a genius!"
Seeing the expression on Lin Feng's face, Mang Tianchi coughed and then eagerly asked Lin Feng,
"Boy, are you really from Canaan Academy?"
"Fallen Heart Flame, Elder Qianbai."
Seeing the old dean's appearance, Lin Feng could only reveal some of the academy's secrets. Now Mang Tianchi finally believed that Lin Feng was indeed a student of Canaan Academy.
He stroked his beard slightly, subtly tidying his messy hair, before speaking in a slightly lowered voice.
"Young man,"
"Dean, my name is Lin Feng!"
"Lin Feng, hmm, not a bad name, wait a minute!"
Mang Tianchi seemed to remember something, turned around and carefully examined Lin Feng's appearance, then took out a portrait from his storage ring, on which Lin Feng's appearance was clearly drawn.
"Lin Feng, you wouldn't happen to be...?"
Mang Tianchi pointed at the portrait and looked at Lin Feng several times, seemingly unable to believe it!
"Old Dean, just as you thought, I am the champion of this year's Pill Gathering—Lin Feng!"
"Hahahaha."
Hearing Lin Feng confirm it himself, Mang Tianchi laughed wildly again, his joy undisguised.
"So, my Canaan Academy not only produced a Transcendent Realm expert, but also a highly talented alchemy master with an eighth-grade, nine-colored alchemy skill!"
"Hahaha, I founded Canaan Academy, so doesn't that mean you, Lin Feng, were taught by me?"
"Moreover, with your talent, you're practically at the Half-Saint Realm. Even becoming a ninth-grade alchemy master is highly probable for you!"
"Hahaha, now who among those old guys dares say I'm just playing around!"
Lin Feng didn't respond to Mang Tianchi's self-amusement. Instead, a thought flashed through his mind, and he considered whether he could use the old dean's connections to get in touch with the Thunder Clan.
Although he was now on par with the Ancient Dragon Clan, and because of Zi Yan, if he rose to prominence in the future, the Ancient Dragon Clan would definitely stand by him.
However, many of the old dragons had been in the endless void for countless years, and even the recently returned Zhu Yan didn't know who was still alive.
Even if he were still alive, if he were too far from the Dou Qi Continent, he probably wouldn't be able to return in a short time.
Time is what Lin Feng lacks most right now, as there isn't much time left before the Soul Clan's plan begins.
"Lin Feng, young man, I have a suggestion you might consider!"
Just as Lin Feng was thinking about how to broach the subject, Mang Tianchi suddenly spoke, his tone surprisingly serious.
"Please speak, Dean!"
"Lin Feng, young man, I know that with your talent in alchemy, you must be highly valued by the Pill Tower!"
Mang Tianchi, with his hands behind his back, slowly walked through the Void Thunder Pool. Lightning snakes occasionally attacked him, but he easily caught them in his palms, displaying the demeanor of a master.
"However, given your status in the Pill Tower, you should know that the Pill Tower is now in great decline!"
"Apart from that old monster, the strongest person in the Pill Tower is only Old Monster Lin!"
"And within the Thunder Clan, I often hear certain remarks that are extremely unfavorable to the Pill Tower or that Profound Core Old Monster!"
Mang Tianchi suddenly turned around, staring directly into Lin Feng's pupils, as if trying to find something in his eyes.
"It is said that the patriarchs of the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan are extremely concerned about this old monster from the Pill Tower who comes from alchemy. It is likely that the moment he advances to the Golden Core stage will be the day he dies!"
"At that time, the Pill Tower, having lost the protection of a super strong expert, will probably be taken over by the Medicine Clan immediately. In such a situation, I'm afraid you wouldn't be willing."
"You might as well make plans sooner and join the Thunder Clan. Don't worry, with my guarantee, and given your exceptional talent for the Thunder Clan's lightning control techniques!"
"And with your powerful alchemy talent, after a short period of testing, the Thunder Clan will definitely train you with the highest standards. This is much better than staying in the Pill Tower, which is on the verge of decline!"
"Thank you for your concern, Dean!"
Although he didn't entirely agree with the old dean's words, Lin Feng felt a sense of satisfaction from them, and therefore, he was very grateful.
"Danta has invested a great deal in its students and provided much protection during their growth. Now that I have grown up, how can I stand idly by or abandon Danta in times of trouble?"
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad!"
Lin Feng had expected the old dean, though not furious at being rejected, to be rather gleeful. Instead, he was beaming with joy.
"Lin Feng, you speak well. If you were an ungrateful wretch, I would never have acknowledged you as a student!"
Faced with the old dean's praise, Lin Feng merely smiled and remained silent.
"However, if you are unwilling to join the Thunder Clan, I cannot impart the clan's top secret techniques to you."
"Dean, there's no need to worry. I have had many fortuitous encounters, and I am not lacking in cultivation techniques and combat skills." "
Indeed, the Pill Tower is the most powerful force in the Central Continent. Even the patriarchs of the Spirit Clan and Stone Clan, ranked last among the imperial clans, are no match for the Pill Tower's ancestor."
"In terms of the inheritance of combat skills, you certainly will not lack."
As if remembering something, Mang Tianchi handed Lin Feng a jade slip.
"This is my communication jade slip. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can send me a message, and I will certainly lend a helping hand!"
"Even if I cannot solve your problem, with your potential, you are destined to become a ninth-grade treasure pill refining master in the future."
"Even becoming a ninth-grade profound pill refining master is highly possible. I believe the clan leader will befriend such a prodigy."
"Thank you, Dean!"
Lin Feng was somewhat surprised to receive such a promise from the old dean. In this way, he could be connected with three major forces on the Dou Qi Continent:
the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Pill Tower!
If such forces were to form an alliance after the Dragon Emperor's escape, they would essentially be the most powerful force on the Dou Qi Continent.
"However, if I want to make my voice heard in this world, I must at least reach the Dou Sheng realm!"
The old dean, Mang Tianchi, was indeed a fiery and impulsive person. After chatting for a few more minutes, his figure flashed and disappeared into the Void Thunder Pool.
After all, although the Black Demon Lightning deep within the Thunder Pool was no longer raging, its aura had been memorized. If it were to venture deeper again, it would likely erupt once more.
And since he couldn't enter the depths of the Thunder Pool to cultivate for the time being, the outer lightning energy was useless against a semi-saint level expert like the old dean.
"However, because of the old dean, I can't enter the depths of the Thunder Pool to cultivate for the time being either. It seems I have to return to Dragon Island first!"
Having figured this out, Lin Feng followed his soul's perception, moving horizontally to retrieve the dozen or so puppets into his storage ring.
"Lin Feng, something has happened on Dragon Island! We must return immediately!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Lin Feng's ears. Before he could react, Elder Qingshan appeared, his face somewhat urgent.
"Alright!"
Deep within the chaotic void space, darkness and desolation were the eternal themes. Apart from the Void Ancient Dragon clan, who were born with control over space, very few powerful individuals ventured here.
Because when you are trapped in such a space, you are often already lost.
However, this usually deserted place was unusually crowded with visitors today.
"Boom!"
These visitors were utterly ruthless, their massive energy hands relentlessly pounding the enormous barrier ahead. Extremely violent energy erupted, further disrupting the spatial order.
"These damned bastards! How dare they join forces with outsiders to attack Dragon Island! They will surely be sent to the Dragon-Slaying Platform to suffer the punishment of a thousand cuts!"
Above Dragon Island, many powerful members of the Dragon Clan stood, their eyes fixed on the crumbling barrier above the island, their fury uncontrollable.
"Qingmu, has Qingshan received the message?"
Looking at the numerous invaders outside the barrier, Zhuyan forcibly suppressed his anger and asked Qingmu, the Second Elder of East Dragon Island, who stood beside him.
"I've already sent a telepathic message to Elder Qingshan. At his speed, if he travels at full speed, he should be back on Dragon Island in less than a quarter of an hour. He should be back soon!"
"Once Qingshan and the Prince Consort return to Dragon Island, immediately release the barrier and kill all these audacious fools!"
Zhu Yan's anger was barely contained. In his memory, the Dragon Clan was incredibly powerful. In all the long years he had lived, not a single powerful being had ever dared to directly attack Dragon Island's main camp.
This was a disgrace to their ancient dragon clan!
Only blood could wash it away.
"Brother Hun, after this barrier breaks, please join me in restraining Zhu Yan. This way, the Northern Dragon King and the others can defeat the remaining powerful beings of Eastern Dragon Island one by one!"
In the void outside Dragon Island, Huang Tian stared at the spatial barrier that was about to shatter before him and turned to look at Hun Miesheng beside him.
"The Candle Flame of the Ancient Dragon Clan? Perfect, this Palace Master would like to experience firsthand what makes the Dragon Clan's powerhouses so different!"
As his words fell, wisps of black mist suddenly billowed from his body, and a terrifying black flame simultaneously rose, vaguely coalescing into the shape of a horrifying human face, cackling grotesquely.
"This eyesore of a barrier, it's time for it to disappear!"
With that, a massive black energy hand instantly emerged from behind him, the black flame, radiating a strong devouring aura, attaching itself to it. Under everyone's watchful eyes, it suddenly collided with the barrier.
"Boom!"
A tremendous explosion followed, and a slight cracking sound appeared in the void.
Although extremely faint, those present were all experts at the Transcendent Realm or above; how could they ignore it?
A short while later, the cracking sound amplified instantly, and the spatial barrier shattered like glass, turning into countless specks of light and disappearing without a trace.
East Dragon Island was now completely revealed before Hun Miesheng and the others!
"You dare to offend my Dragon Clan? It seems the Dou Qi Continent has forgotten how terrifying our race is for far too many years!"
Zhu Yan's face was extremely gloomy as he stared at the group of hostile guests. As for the Northern Dragon King and the many traitors behind him, they were already dead in his eyes.
"You must be Zhu Yan, the strongest of the Dragon Clan, right? I am Hun Miesheng, the Hall Master of the Soul Palace. I have long admired your name!"
It must be said that the Soul Clan members were quite polite before revealing their madness, which was different from ordinary guardian venerables.
It seems that when the Soul Emperor first appeared, he also appeared to be a refined middle-aged man who had read many books.
"Two mere five-star Dou Sheng dare to offend my Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan? Today, you will not leave alive!"
Just then, a tall figure slowly walked up to the group from behind Zhu Yan, and a powerful dragon aura was immediately revealed.
"It's you, Zhu Ying?"
Chapter 288 The Dragon Emperor's Summoning Order
In the chaotic void, a dozen figures exuding terrifying auras stood suspended in mid-air, their faces grave as they stared at the void ahead.
Among them, the Northern Dragon King and his group, along with the numerous Dou Sheng experts behind him, were utterly shocked, as if the figure before them shouldn't have appeared at all.
Hun Miesheng and his companions also looked grim. In their perception, this expert named Zhu Ying unmistakably possessed the aura of a five-star Dou Sheng.
"Damn it, I didn't expect the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan to have such a powerful foundation. It seems we have no choice but to retreat!"
Looking at the two five-star Dou Shengs from Donglong Island ahead, Hun Miesheng secretly transmitted his voice to the Dou Sheng experts of the Soul Hall, leading his group back a few steps.
"Brother Hun, please lend me a hand! Besides these two five-star Dou Shengs, the rest of the experts on Donglong Island are nothing but chickens and dogs!"
Seeing Hun Miesheng's actions, Huang Tian's expression darkened further, and he gritted his teeth before transmitting his voice.
"Brother Hun, you've already offended the Ancient Dragon Clan. If you don't seize this opportunity to eliminate them, they might retaliate in the future!"
Huang Tian's voice reached Hun Miesheng's ears, but his expression remained unchanged. He wasn't afraid of just two five-star Dou Sheng, especially with the Hun Clan as his backer.
If Huang Tian thought he could drag him down with him, he was sorely mistaken!
Seeing that Hun Miesheng was completely unmoved, Huang Tian knew he had to resort to his last trump card.
"If Brother Hun is willing to help me take down the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix will obey your orders from now on. If you don't believe me, I, the clan leader, swear on my Heavenly Demon Phoenix bloodline!"
"Oh?"
Hearing that Huang Tian was willing to pay such a price, Hun Miesheng silently stopped his retreat, a look of great interest appearing in his eyes.
"That old fox Huang Tian is actually willing to pay such a price to annihilate the Ancient Dragon Clan. It seems there must be something extremely important to him within East Dragon Island!"
"Moreover," Hun Miesheng glanced discreetly at the Northern Dragon King and his companions before him, "Huang Tian's words seem to imply that he intends to wipe out the Northern Dragon King and the others as well!"
"Interesting, very interesting!"
Thinking this, Hun Miesheng nodded subtly to Huang Tian, indicating his agreement to his request.
He wasn't worried that Huang Tian would go back on his word; before the Soul Clan, few forces in this world had the right to refuse!
Seeing Hun Miesheng nod, Huang Tian felt a barely perceptible sigh of relief deep within his mind.
In truth, he was unwilling to be subordinate to others, but the fact that the split Dragon Clan still possessed two five-star Dou Sheng was a huge surprise to him.
At this moment, East Dragon Island was already under siege, but once the crisis on Dragon Island was over, the first to suffer would be the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
For the ancient dragon race, proud to the core, it was absolutely unforgivable for a mere prey to dare to ride on their master's head.
Moreover, they weren't without the means to turn the tables. Once they obtained the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, heh, after secretly developing for a few thousand years, what fear would they have of the Soul Clan? While
the two were scheming, the Northern Dragon King and his companions were silently sacrificed. If the extremely arrogant Northern Dragon King knew that he was merely a pawn in the eyes of others, how enraged would he be?
"Brother Zhu Ying, besides those few bastards, those people from the Soul Palace and those Heavenly Demon Phoenix prey will surely not return alive!"
"Those who offend our dragon race, though far away, will be punished!"
Perhaps due to the long years of wandering the void, Zhu Ying's personality had become somewhat cold upon his return.
"Though far away, they will be punished!"
Below East Dragon Island, many dragon guards clad in black armor felt a surge of heat in their blood. They hadn't felt this invincible domineering aura of the dragon race for thousands of years.
After the Dragon Emperor disappeared, many predecessors went to the void to search for him, and the three Dragon Kings split Dragon Island, many dragons were not even allowed to roam freely in the endless void, and could only be confined to the vicinity of Dragon Island.
What a humiliation this was for the ancient dragons who loved freedom by nature!
At this moment, they only wanted to fight bravely, only blood could wash away the shackles that had bound Dragon Island for so many years.
"Brother Hun, make your move!"
Seeing the appearance of the many dragons, Huang Tian recalled the scene of his childhood and shouted loudly.
"Celestial Phoenix Bell!"
As soon as Huang Tian finished speaking, he suddenly revealed his true form as a Celestial Phoenix, which was nearly a thousand feet in size. In fact, in the eyes of the three Celestial Phoenixes, their clan leader's form was extremely close to that of the ancient Celestial Phoenix.
"Howl!"
Like a real ancient Celestial Phoenix, the Celestial Phoenix Bell, which was a thousand feet in size, appeared in front of Huang Tian. After letting out a long howl, it rapidly bombarded Zhu Ying and the others.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Ying and Zhu Yan's expressions turned slightly solemn, their eyes filled with a hint of nostalgia.
"Long years have passed, and the battle with the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix seems almost imminent. Let this old man see just how much of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix's power you, this mixed-blood descendant, have inherited!"
As his voice fell, Zhu Yan swiftly transformed into his colossal form, letting out a long roar.
"Roar!"
The terrifying dragon's might shook the heavens, even the chaotic void seemed to tremble.
"Ancient Dragon Breath!"
The giant dragon, winding through the endless void, suddenly raised its head, its vast dragon eyes fixed on the rapidly approaching Heavenly Phoenix Bell and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix behind it, a mocking glint in its eyes.
Then, a vast energy rippled around it, and after a tremendous roar, it suddenly unleashed a terrifying dragon flame.
"Boom boom boom!"
The greatest sound was silent; the terrifying racial secret techniques collided, and for a moment, the entire space seemed to lose all sense of sound.
After a long while, an extremely terrifying mushroom cloud finally rose between the two, its enormous sound echoing across the sky.
Accompanying it was an extremely terrifying aftershock of energy.
Seeing this, Hun Miesheng and Zhu Ying acted in perfect unison, and an extremely dense black mist and a silver-white barrier that obscured the sky reappeared.
The aftershocks of the two five-star Dou Sheng powerhouses' all-out clash were immediately blocked by them!
"Crack."
Just then, a slight sound of shattering glass rang out, and the expressions of the Three Phoenixes of the Heavenly Demon suddenly changed drastically as they quickly looked towards the center of the battle.
After the huge mushroom cloud dissipated, the scene in the arena slowly appeared before everyone, leaving them all astonished.
Cracks covered the colossal Heavenly Phoenix Bell, a thousand feet in size, and the majestic breath of the ancient dragon slowly subsided.
It seemed the two were evenly matched.
However, the enormous Heavenly Phoenix and the endless, winding ancient dragon seemed completely unconcerned about the outcome of their clash, as if they already knew the battle would be a stalemate.
"Howl!"
"Roar!"
The two roared in unison, then charged at each other without warning.
The Heavenly Phoenix's sharp beak and the ancient dragon's claws, honed over countless years in the void, struck their massive bodies instantly.
Instantly, gruesome wounds appeared on the bodies of the two behemoths, and their highly refined blood rained down from the sky as if it would fight to the death.
The scene seemed to recreate the ancient battle between the Heavenly Phoenix and the ancient dragon, two overlords, for supremacy in the distant past.
"I never imagined that in this day and age, there would still be ancient phoenixes with such pure bloodlines!"
Zhu Ying exclaimed. In his memory, the ancient phoenixes seemed to have been wiped out by the Dragon Emperor's army.
In this world, only some mixed-blood descendants of the ancient phoenixes should have remained as food for the ancient dragon clan.
As Zhu Ying, a five-star Dou Sheng, sighed, everyone understood why Huang Tian was so powerful.
After a brutal physical battle, the two enormous figures, each nearly a thousand feet tall, suddenly flew towards the void beyond Dragon Island.
During this process, phoenix beaks, phoenix claws, dragon claws, and dragon teeth tore flesh from their opponents, sending it plummeting into the depths of spacetime.
Once the two terrifying powerhouses disappeared from sight, Hun Miesheng slowly took a few steps forward, gazing at Zhu Ying below Dragon Island.
"I am Hun Miesheng of the Hun Clan, and I also wish to experience the methods of the supreme demonic beast—the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!"
As his words fell, a vast expanse of black mist surged from his body, instantly enveloping a thousand-foot radius of void.
Within that black mist, numerous skulls flew chaotically, emitting terrifying screams.
"The Soul Clan? In my memory, they seem to be nothing more than a weak imperial clan among humans!"
Zhu Ying slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with a hint of killing intent, and his tone was chilling.
"Now, they actually dare to provoke my Dragon Clan, they're simply courting death!"
"Roar!"
Terrifying dragon flames attacked indiscriminately towards Hun Miesheng, the Northern Dragon King, and the others.
"Damn it, this guy has actually stepped into the threshold of a six-star Dou Sheng, attack together!"
The moment Zhu Ying unleashed his full power, Hun Miesheng's expression changed drastically, and he shouted at the Northern Dragon King and the others.
"What, a six-star Dou Sheng?"
The Northern Dragon King and the others panicked, but since these guys dared to resist, they knew they had no way out. If
they didn't destroy Donglong Island now, all they would face was the Dragon Slaying Platform.
"Roar!"
Beside Hun Miesheng, terrifying dragons hundreds of feet in size instantly appeared, unleashing terrifying dragon flames downwards.
Without hesitation, the Three Heavenly Phoenixes transformed into a colossal Heavenly Phoenix Bell, colliding with the dragon flames.
Even Yao Xiaotian, who harbored his own calculations, understood the principle of mutual dependence, and his massive ancient celestial serpent phantom surged towards the dragon flames.
"Ten Thousand Souls Pay Homage!"
Hun Miesheng's expression was extremely solemn as his hands rapidly formed hand seals. Within the vast black mist, the randomly flying skulls seemed to receive some command, quickly condensing into a blood-red skull a thousand feet in size.
"Boom!"
On one side was the terrifying dragon flames unleashed by an ancient dragon approaching a six-star Dou Sheng level expert, and on the other was the full-force attack of a five-star Dou Sheng and numerous low-level Dou Sheng.
The terrifying energies collided instantly above Dragon Island, the vast shockwaves even spreading hundreds of miles away.
"Not good! Those audacious bastards have begun attacking Dragon Island! Prince Consort, we must return immediately!"
Elder Qingshan, still some distance from Dragon Island, could no longer contain his anxiety upon sensing this terrifying fluctuation. He swiftly transformed into his massive ancient dragon form.
No longer caring about appearances, he placed Lin Feng at the dragon's head and rushed back to Dragon Island at top speed.
On the massive dragon's head, Lin Feng felt the void rushing past him, a sense of urgency washing over him. A jade slip appeared in his palm, which he quickly crushed.
"Hopefully, it's not too late!"
In the extremely distant Little Pill Tower world, the shepherd boy, who was instructing Xuan Kongzi and the others, suddenly looked up, gazing across the endless space towards this place.
Before Xuan Kongzi and the others could ask, he transmitted a few words to Elder Lin Laoguai, then quickly opened a spatial passage and headed towards the unknown.
Deep within Donglong Island, at an altar, Zi Yan, who had been in seclusion for a long time, appeared. Golden blood flowed continuously, flowing towards the altar.
In the center of the altar, an extremely terrifying essence of blood floated above and below.
If Lin Feng were here again, he would surely be surprised to discover that this was the aura of the Dragon Emperor!
Mysterious dragon language emanated from her mouth. Around her, apart from Zhu Yan and numerous dragon guards, all the remaining dragons gathered, speaking the same mysterious dragon language as Zi Yan.
The blood combined with the mysteriously powerful dragon language, under the influence of the altar, emitted a strange fluctuation, spreading into the depths of the void, as if summoning something.
"Not good!"
The Northern Dragon King and others, also of the dragon race, paled drastically, as if sensing something. Many of the giant dragons went berserk, rapidly crashing towards Dragon Island.
"Hahaha, only realizing it now? Too late!"
Zhu Ying laughed loudly, seemingly having achieved some plan. He transformed into a massive ancient dragon, its body sweeping across the land, sending the Northern Dragon King and his companions flying.
"Northern Dragon King, what happened?"
Seeing the Northern Dragon King and his group in such a state, even though he didn't know what had happened, Hun Miesheng knew something was wrong and hurriedly asked them.
"Brother Hun, within Eastern Dragon Island, there is a direct descendant of the Dragon Emperor!"
The Northern Dragon King's face was extremely grim, his enormous dragon eyes filled with undisguised fear.
"That fluctuation just now was a summons exclusively for the Dragon Emperor! It's exclusive to the Dragon Emperor!"
"This means that someone on East Dragon Island has received the Dragon Emperor's inheritance. But that's not the most important thing; after all, even the inheritance of a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) needs time to mature."
"The most terrifying thing is that ancient dragon texts record that the summons' information can disregard spatial distance and reach the depths of every dragon's bloodline."
"This means that those old dragons who have been away from Dragon Island for many years are about to return!"
"What!?"
"Hahaha, only now do you realize? Too late!"
Zhu Ying's massive dragon body roared to the sky, shaking the endless chaotic void. Even the vast East Dragon Island trembled slightly.
"When you old brothers return, none of you audacious fools will escape!"
"Oh, is that so?"
Just then, Hun Miesheng suddenly looked up, a mocking glint in his eyes, and quietly crushed a jade slip.
"Buzz"
Chapter 289 Arrives
Despite the dire situation, Hun Miesheng remained calm. He secretly crushed the spatial jade slip, then slowly stepped forward, his expression unchanged.
"Dragon Clan experts, in my opinion, the Dragon Clan seems to have lost its former strength!" "
Today, if the Ancient Dragon Clan is willing to submit to our clan and become the Dragon Cavalry Legion of the Hun Clan, they can be spared annihilation!" "How
dare you!" "Insolence!
"
"Hun Miesheng, what are you saying!?"
Before Zhu Ying could answer, the roars of the Northern Dragon King and others rang out, and numerous enormous dragons circled and coiled around Hun Miesheng.
The pride of the Dragon Clan was etched deep within the dragon souls of every path. Even now, when the Northern Dragon King and others sought to exterminate the royal bloodline, they would not allow outsiders to insult the Dragon Clan.
To use a dragon as a mount was the greatest insult!
If Hun Miesheng did not provide a satisfactory answer to the many powerful dragons, terrifying dragon flames would be unleashed immediately.
"Get lost!"
The colossal skull, thousands of feet long, roared at the numerous dragons. The terrifying soul fluctuations caused the dragons' massive bodies to tremble violently, struggling in the void.
Even for the supreme Void Ancient Dragon race of magical beasts, soul power was a significant weakness, let alone this move, Soul Annihilation, which specialized in the soul.
Seeing this, Zhu Ying's expression darkened.
Even if the Northern Dragon King and others had committed unforgivable crimes, only the dragon race could deal with them. A mere five-star Dou Sheng was simply audacious!
However, he had also witnessed Soul Annihilation shattering the spatial jade slip.
Not knowing the level of the approaching expert, he did not act rashly.
After all, although his true level was mid-stage six-star Dou Sheng, the dragon race was no longer what it used to be. Not only had the Dragon Emperor been missing for many years, but many elders had also not returned.
Under these circumstances, offending a top-tier imperial race among humans was not a wise move!
Moreover, a faint devouring power emanated from Hun Miesheng, giving him a strange sense of threat.
He wasn't absolutely certain he could defeat him in a short time. The best-case scenario was to wait for the elders to use Princess Ziyan's Dragon Emperor summons to quickly travel through space and return!
After reprimanding the arrogant Northern Dragon King and the others, Hun Miesheng didn't continue his attack. Before the arrival of the clan's experts, he dared not act rashly against the powerful Zhu Ying. The Northern Dragon King and the others were
filled with regret.
"Damn old man, why didn't he return sooner or later? Why didn't he just die in the void now!"
Yao Xiaotian and the Three Heavenly Phoenixes were even more frustrated. They hadn't expected that the split Dragon Island still had such a powerful figure. Why hadn't he unified the Dragon Island earlier, causing it to split?
With everyone harboring their own ulterior motives, the scene became strangely quiet.
However, everyone knew this was only temporary. Now it was up to the Hun Clan and the Dragon Clan's experts to return first! The
eerie
atmosphere lasted for less than a quarter of an hour before being broken by a spatial fluctuation, and two figures slowly appeared beside Zhu Ying and the others.
The moment they saw the two figures, a fierce killing intent flashed in Hun Miesheng's eyes. His massive skeleton technique stirred, and a black flame emanated from his body.
"Lin Feng, you dare attack my Soul Palace and steal the soul essence accumulated over many years? You're very good!"
The cold, murderous words from Hun Miesheng sent chills down everyone's spines.
Lin Feng, still trying to understand the situation, immediately looked in this direction and saw Hun Miesheng, his body radiating an evil black mist and eerie black flames, shrouded in a massive skeleton figure.
"May I ask who you are?"
Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from him, Lin Feng had a vague idea and greeted him with a cupped hand.
"I am the Lord of the Soul Palace, brat! Even with the protection of the Ancient Dragon Clan, today I will imprison your soul in the Heavenly Gang Palace and whip it day and night!"
The moment he saw Lin Feng, Soul Extinction knew that his previous guess was absolutely correct. Even
someone with extraordinary talent like the clan leader or Xiao Xuan in his prime had traceable growth patterns.
With his eyesight, how could he not see that Lin Feng's soul power had reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm, and even faintly broke through to the late stage?
The intelligence within the palace showed that this fellow's soul power had only entered the Spirit Realm in a few short years. Without an extraordinary stroke of luck, how could he have made such progress?
Such an opportunity was something that even other imperial clans could hardly possess, except for the branch palaces of his Soul Palace that had been attacked.
"So you are the Lord of the Soul Palace, Soul Extinction! I have long admired your name!"
Lin Feng had anticipated this scene when he attacked the Soul Palace, and with the newly returned dragon clan expert beside him, he was not particularly flustered.
The Soul Clan might be implementing their plan to devour the Stone Clan right now, and to conceal themselves, they certainly won't reveal too many powerful figures.
Soul Extinction's actions are likely intended to confuse the many imperial clans!
From the perspective of the original story, Lin Feng had already vaguely guessed the purpose of Soul Extinction, or rather, the Soul Clan behind him, in attacking the Dragon Clan.
"I have heard about the attack on the Soul Palace that you mentioned, and I find the actions of that villain utterly despicable!"
"However, this matter has nothing to do with me. I hope the Palace Master will not be deceived by such a villain!"
Although Soul Extinction and the others already knew he was responsible, how could Lin Feng admit it so easily?
If the entire continent knew about this, even for the sake of face, the Soul Palace would kill him.
But if only those present knew, for the sake of the Soul Clan's long-term plan, under the protection of the Dragon Clan and the Pill Tower Ancestor, they would choose to turn a blind eye.
"Buzz!"
Just then, a massive black hand suddenly tore apart the space, seemingly utterly unafraid of the Dragon Clan.
"Greetings, Elder!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Hun Miesheng and the Great Heavenly Venerable were overjoyed and hurriedly bowed in greeting.
"Hun Miesheng, have you encountered some troublesome matter that requires summoning this Saint?"
The newcomer's tone subtly revealed dissatisfaction. Knowing the clan's plans, Hun Miesheng quickly bowed and explained.
"Elder, we misjudged the Dragon Clan's strength, resulting in an extra five-star Dou Sheng peak expert. We beg your punishment!"
If it were an ordinary elder, Hun Miesheng, as the Soul Palace Master, would treat even a six-star Dou Sheng as an equal.
After all, he had made a tremendous contribution to the soul of that great one.
However, before him stood a Seven-Star Dou Sheng expert, and even more so, the true number one alchemist in the clan and even the Dou Qi Continent, Hun Xuzi!
Even the Yao Clan's patriarch, Yao Dan, might not be his match in alchemy!
Of course, for the sake of the long-term plan, his strength and alchemy skills were not revealed.
"Peak Five-Star Dou Sheng? Hahaha, wrong, this is a genuine Mid-Six-Star Dou Sheng expert. Is this the strongest in the Dragon Clan now?"
"Although not weak, he's not as strong as rumored!"
Hun Xuzi's Heavenly Realm Perfection soul power instantly revealed Zhu Ying's realm, and in a flash, he sensed the situation on Dragon Island, letting out a barely perceptible sigh of relief. He
also quietly withdrew the jade slip from his palm. Before coming here, he thought the Dragon Clan was hiding some ancient dragon, but now it seemed they were just a few small fry!
"What?! Mid-stage Six-Star Dou Sheng!"
Hun Miesheng's tone was filled with shock, but a hint of relief also appeared on his face. Fortunately, he had just shattered the spatial jade slip in time; otherwise, he would likely have already met his demise.
Tianyao Sanhuang and Yao Xiaotian, on the other hand, were filled with fear. A Six-Star Dou Sheng could single-handedly annihilate their entire clan!
"The only thing we can do now is hope that this lord can destroy the Dragon Clan!"
"I didn't expect the Soul Clan to send out a powerhouse like you. It seems I'll have to put on a show today!"
Zhu Ying's expression was extremely solemn. At the same time, he secretly transmitted his voice to Qingmu Qingshan and the others to quickly return to the Dragon Clan and set up the great formation, determined to hold out until the clan elders returned.
Lin Feng's expression was also somewhat grim. If Zhu Ying, with his mid-stage Six-Star Dou Sheng cultivation, was so solemn, coupled with the Dragon Clan's terrifying combat power, this Soul Clan expert was most likely a Seven-Star Dou Sheng!
"I wonder if the protective measures the Dragon Emperor left for Zi Yan are enough to deal with a Seven-Star Dou Sheng!"
Lin Feng was somewhat powerless in this situation!
"As long as we can defeat this Seven-Star Dou Sheng, the Soul Clan will certainly not send more powerful warriors to the Dragon Clan at this crucial moment!"
"You are Lin Feng, the new hope of the Pill Tower?"
Just then, this newly appeared Soul Clan expert actually looked at Lin Feng, his eyes filled with interest.
"I am Hun Xuzi. You must have heard of my great name. If you are willing to become my disciple and a member of the Soul Clan, I can forgive your previous crimes!"
The moment Hun Xuzi arrived, Hun Miesheng had told him everything about the situation, including Lin Feng.
For certain reasons, Hun Xuzi clearly held a different attitude towards the Pill Tower's prodigy.
Of course, this was also due to Lin Feng's talent, enough to make him look at him differently!
"Given the grave mistake you've committed, you should obviously be killed by my clan. However, your talent in alchemy is indeed remarkable; you have the potential to reach the Treasure Pill or even Profound Pill realm in the future. I cannot bear to see such a prodigy perish!" Seeing this
, Hun Miesheng
, standing to the side, didn't object. A future ninth-grade alchemist could indeed receive some preferential treatment.
Faced with this situation, Lin Feng felt somewhat powerless. It was truly unexpected that these fools, like the Northern Dragon King, would collude with the Soul Palace.
And Hun Xuzi was even more beyond his capabilities; at least for now, he was completely unable to deal with a Seven-Star Dou Sheng.
Originally, he had planned to use the old dean as a link to facilitate an alliance between the Dragon Clan and the Thunder Clan after the Void Thunder Pool ended.
With an Eight-Star Dou Sheng level expert as a backup, plus the continuous return of strong members of the Dragon Clan, they would at least avoid a major attack from the Soul Clan, allowing him to seize the time to improve himself as much as possible.
"Six!"
"Hun Xuzi, you betrayed the Ancestor back then, did you think I would collude with you?"
Lin Feng had originally intended to feign compliance, but after seeing the mockery in Hun Xuzi's eyes, he understood that this so-called recruitment was nothing but a trick.
"You do have backbone!"
Hun Xuzi's expression changed instantly, followed by a loud, cackling laugh.
"Speaking of which, that old ghost was also quite courageous back then, and ultimately died from my sneak attack."
"You do have some talent, and perhaps in a few thousand years you will grow to my level, but what I like most is to crush the geniuses of the Pill Tower!"
"Today is your death day!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hun Xuzi no longer hesitated, suddenly raising his hand to grab the void below, intending to take down many Dou Sheng powerhouses, including Zhu Ying, a six-star Dou Sheng!
"Roar!"
Seeing this, Zhu Ying dared not be careless, immediately transforming into his ancient dragon form, the massive dragon over a thousand feet tall protecting everyone behind him.
The spatial power in the void seemed to be disrupted by the enormous dragon body. An invisible barrier appeared between Zhu Ying and Hun Xuzi, blocking the giant hand that was attacking.
"The dragon race is truly blessed. You're just a mid-stage six-star Dou Sheng, yet your use of space is even better than mine!"
Hun Xuzi was slightly surprised that his attack had missed, and a sinister smile flashed across his face as he looked at Donglong Island behind Zhu Ying's endless dragon body.
"I wonder if you can really protect these scum!"
"Hun Miesheng, we'll attack together later. You attack Dragon Island, and I'll continue attacking that old dragon!"
"Yes!"
Hun Xuzi's plan was not hidden. Even Tian Yao Sanhuang and the others thought that humans were too insidious, let alone Zhu Ying and the others.
"Qingshan, you all must quickly activate the Myriad Dragons Formation! I will buy you time here. Tell His Highness that you must find the many dragon elders as soon as possible!"
With a flick of his massive dragon body, Zhu Ying sent Elder Qingshan and Lin Feng to Dragon Island. He then ignited a blood flame, his aura briefly soaring to the peak of the Six-Star Dou Sheng realm, just one step away from reaching the Seven-Star Dou Sheng realm.
"As expected of the supreme demonic beast that shakes the continent, it even has such methods. In that case, we can't let you live!"
"Hun Miesheng, act!"
"My lord, please lend me a hand!"
As soon as the words fell, a terrifying black flame rose from the body of Hun Xuzi Yu Hun Miesheng, and two greedy human faces appeared on the black flame.
Among them, the black flame on Hun Xuzi's body was more complete, and what they had in common was that both of them were eyeing the dragon bloodline on Zhu Ying.
"Destroy heaven and earth!"
Their voices resounded throughout the heavens and earth, accompanied by strange black flames falling from their bodies, drifting towards the enormous dragon clan burning with blood flames and the Dragon Island.
Fortunately, Elder Qingshan acted decisively, immediately activating the Myriad Dragons Formation with numerous Dragon Guards. The massive silver-white barrier instantly blocked the black flames.
However, the eerie black flames emitted a strange devouring power, even gradually consuming the formation formed by spatial power.
Fortunately, the dragon clan's inherited formation was extremely powerful, or rather, Hun Xuzi and Hun Miesheng were ultimately not the Void Devouring Flame itself, so the devouring power wasn't as monstrous as it seemed.
The black flames that had fallen onto Zhu Yinglong's body were extinguished by the blood flames. It was unknown what kind of method this was, but it could actually withstand the power of the Void Devouring Flame, even if it was just a minor flame!
"Prince Consort, quickly go to the Dragon Island altar to find Princess Ziyan. If anything is amiss, immediately take her away using the Dragon Island formation."
Just then, a familiar voice rang in Lin Feng's ears; it was Elder Qingshan.
"With the Prince Consort's talent in alchemy and Princess Ziyan's powerful bloodline after achieving the Dragon-Phoenix realm, as long as they remain hidden for a thousand years, they will surely reach the pinnacle of the continent!"
"With the combat power of a fully-formed Dragon-Phoenix, they can surely avenge us and annihilate the enemies who have invaded today!"
"And many of our Dragon Clan's predecessors will gradually return during this period, so you must all preserve yourselves!"
Elder Qingshan's face was full of determination, as if he had already made some kind of preparation.
"Elder Qingshan, perhaps things haven't reached that point yet!"
Although Lin Feng's face also showed some worry, he was not as desperate as Elder Qingshan. The moment Hun Xuzi appeared, he had already crushed the spatial jade slip of the Pill Tower Ancestor.
"With the combined strength of Ancestor and Senior Zhuying, two six-star Dou Sheng powerhouses, they should be able to hold off Hun Xuzi for a while!"
"And the ancient clans and other imperial clans certainly won't sit idly by while the Soul Clan wipes out their enemy, especially Gu Yuan, who's very good at positioning himself in this regard!"
Green Feng already roughly understands Gu Yuan's character from the original story; he's cautious about his own safety when undertaking great tasks, just like when the Soul Clan used its techniques against Xiao Xuan thousands of years ago, he simply stood by and did nothing.
However, a potential ally against the Soul Clan, and one that's neither too strong nor too weak, is quite easy to control.
Under these circumstances, the probability of Gu Yuan taking action is extremely high!
And according to Elder Qingshan, the Dragon Clan's predecessors seem to be using a forbidden technique, forcibly summoning many old dragons back.
And since the Soul Clan is plotting to devour the Stone Clan, Hun Xuzi is undoubtedly their top fighting force!
Thus, they only need to hold the final line!
"Xuan Dan Zhen Shi!"
A childish voice rang in everyone's ears, followed by a colossal pill, thousands of feet long, suddenly appearing in the void, instantly easing the pressure on Zhu Ying.
Then, a shepherd boy riding an ox appeared.
"So it's you, you bastard! I didn't expect you to dare appear before me. Aren't you afraid of being refined into my true form?"
The shepherd boy's youthful face vaguely overlapped with a figure deep in Hun Xuzi's memory, making his face extremely gloomy.
"Hun Xuzi, one day you traitor will die by my hand!"
"Hahahaha, I'll be waiting for that day."
Hun Xuzi scoffed at the Xuan Dan Ancestor's harsh words, laughing arrogantly.
As a Seven-Star Dou Sheng and the chief alchemist of the Hun Clan, Hun Xuzi was fully aware of the clan's plans.
He estimated that if the plan went smoothly, within a hundred years at most, the clan leader would become the first Dou Di after the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe.
And this mere six-star Dou Sheng level Xuan Dan will naturally be in the Soul Clan's hands. At this moment, the cowherd riding the ox is already a fruit waiting to be picked in their eyes!
"The small clan of yesteryear dares to be so arrogant now, and even dares to offend my Ancient Dragon Clan. They have already met their demise!"
An old voice slowly echoed in the void, accompanied by the sudden extinguishing of the black flames that filled the sky, as if they had encountered some nemesis.
"What!?"
Upon seeing this, Hun Xuzi and Hun Miesheng were shocked. They knew the origin of the black flames perfectly well. Even if it was a Zi Yan, it was not something an ordinary being could contend with, let alone one unleashed by a Seven-Star Dou Sheng.
"Zhu Ying, your cultivation these past few years has been somewhat slow!"
This newly appeared old man ignored the reactions of Hun Xuzi and the others, instead appearing beside the giant dragon burning with blood-red flames and interrupting its forbidden technique with a wave of his hand.
"Third Brother, I've disappointed you!"
The enormous dragon body winding above Dragon Island transformed into human form, Zhu Ying's pale face filled with shame.
Seeing this, Zhu Gong, whom Zhu Ying called Third Brother, was taken aback, a complex expression appearing on his aged face. In the end, he simply patted Zhu Ying's shoulder.
"Let's put those matters aside for now and resolve the crisis on Dragon Island. A few worthless bastards dare to join forces with outsiders to attack the royal family!"
"Truly, their audacity
is outrageous!" Zhu Gong's face was filled with rage. In his time, the Dragon Clan was invincible, unchallenged by anyone!
Now, a being who was at most a Seven-Star Dou Sheng dared to act so arrogantly on Dragon Island. This was the greatest provocation for the ancient dragons, whose pride ran deep in their souls.
This humiliation could only be washed away with the blood of a Dou Sheng!
"The Great Void Seal!"
The aged hand slowly rose, its effect earth-shattering, the chaotic void seemingly calming down.
Hun Xuzi and the others felt their bodies stiffen, the surrounding space seemingly compressing them, as if to crush them.
Even the Void Lord's Zi Yan was completely suppressed within his body under this situation, utterly useless!
"Clan Chief, Lord Void, save me!"
A profound fear surged from the depths of Hun Xuzi's soul. He knew that if he sat idly by and waited to die, he would absolutely not survive under this terrifying seal.
His battle aura and soul power instantly ignited, even the imperial clan's markings seemed to flash on his forehead, combined with the power of his sub-flames, burning along with his bloodline.
The power that erupted in that instant was comparable to a mid-stage Seven-Star Dou Sheng. Although it still couldn't change the terrifying power of the Tai Xu Dragon Seal, it gave Hun Xuzi a moment to breathe.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hun Xuzi instantly crushed the two jade slips in his hands, simultaneously igniting the black flames on his body to the maximum extent.
"Today, no one can save you!"
Sensing Hun Xuzi's actions, the Tai Xu Dragon Seal instantly arrived above their heads, ready to crush them in the next instant.
"Attack together! If we can withstand this attack, the clan leader and Lord Xuwu will intervene, and we will have a chance to survive!"
Hun Xuzi's face was filled with madness. A black dragon exuding a rich medicinal fragrance appeared in his palm, and before anyone could see it clearly, he swallowed it whole.
"Boom boom boom!"
Terrifying energy ripples echoed in the void, even the dragon seal's seal seemed to tremble slightly, and Hun Xuzi's aura had even reached the late stage of the Seven-Star Dou Sheng realm.
"Half-step Xuan Dan?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Xuan Dan Ancestor, somewhat incredulous.
"Could this guy's alchemy skills have actually reached that level?"
"Ten Thousand Souls Pay Homage!"
"Ten Thousand Souls Pay Homage!"
"Heavenly Phoenix Bell!"
"Heavenly Serpent Eye!"
Faced with this terrifying dragon seal, the Three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes and Yao Xiaotian could only burn their bloodlines with all their might, trying to withstand this attack.
Only in this way could they hold out until the Soul Clan's top experts came to their rescue.
A
terrifying energy surge erupted in the void, countless spatial storms instantly bursting forth, even threatening a Dou Sheng-level expert.
However, the situation at the center of the explosion was completely unexpected.
A barrier of black flames blocked the Dragon Seal from entering, and within the black flames, a middle-aged man exuding a strange, devouring power stood expressionless.
Behind him, Hun Xuzi and Hun Miesheng, panting heavily, exchanged a glance, both revealing a look of relief in each other's eyes.
"Truly worthy of being a top expert of the Dragon Clan, your mastery of space has reached its peak!"
The black flames slowly receded into the middle-aged man's body. He looked at the three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes and the others, who were imprisoned by space beside Zhu Gong, and showed admiration.
"Void Devouring Flame? I didn't expect you to join a small clan like the Soul Clan. That's quite surprising!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Zhu Gong seemed unsurprised. He had sensed the fluctuations in the void outside Dragon Island the moment he made his move.
The attack was merely an experiment, but fortunately, it wasn't entirely fruitless!
Beside Zhu Gong, the Three Heavenly Phoenixes, Yao Xiaotian, the three Dragon Kings, and other powerful figures from Dragon Island were all captured by his powerful spatial abilities.
Upon seeing this old face, the Northern Dragon King and the others completely lost their will to fight. Thousands of years ago, this old dragon had already reached the Eight-Star Dou Sheng realm.
With his talent, over the long years, who knows what level he had reached!
"The Soul Clan today is not what it used to be. Apart from the Ancient Clan, the Soul Clan can be considered the second strongest force on the continent!"
Before the plan succeeded, Xu Wu Tun Yan had no intention of revealing the Soul Clan's strength; showing appropriate weakness was part of his clan's plan. However, he didn't hide the strength he had openly displayed.
"The Dragon Clan, on the other hand, remains as powerful as ever!"
Xu Wu Tun Yan's tone was full of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and regret). Although he was only a transformed being of a different kind of fire and had never entered the Beast Domain, he knew the strength of this clan—arguably the most powerful imperial clan!
When he first received news of Soul Extinction, he thought the Soul Clan had gradually declined with the passage of time.
Who knew that today they would almost cause the Soul Clan to lose a Seven-Star Dou Sheng, and even a Ninth-Rank Profound Pill Refiner! Soul Void Child plays a crucial role in the upcoming operations.
He's a powerful weapon for infiltrating a certain imperial clan!
"Enough nonsense! My Dragon Clan will remember what happened today. Now get lost!"
"Hahaha, the Dragon Clan is truly arrogant. I hope they can maintain this!"
Amidst laughter, Void Devouring Flame and the others slowly disappeared into the void. Before disappearing, their large hand reached out and grabbed the enormous Heavenly Demon Phoenix, or rather, the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, which was engaged in battle.
"Third Brother, why didn't you leave them behind?"
Zhu Ying's pale face was filled with confusion. From what he knew, even if Void Devouring Flame and Candle Bow were at the same level, Void Devouring Flame could at least defeat Soul Extinction.
"There are terrifyingly powerful figures watching this place from the shadows!"
Candle Bow slowly nodded towards a certain point in the void, expressing his gratitude before explaining to Zhu Ying.
"What!?"
Atop a hidden mountain range somewhere on the Dou Qi Continent, two refined middle-aged men greeted each other like old friends.
"Gu Yuan, it's been thousands of years since we last met, since my great battle with Xiao Xuan years ago!"
The Soul Emperor, dressed in white, seemed to possess a strange scholarly air, quite different from the Soul Clan members who constantly emitted evil black mist.
Perhaps this was the principle of reversal at the extremes; black to the extreme becomes white!
"It has been many years!"
Gu Yuan's face also showed a hint of emotion. Thousands of years was an extremely long time, even for a nine-star Dou Sheng. " Let's set aside
the old times for now. I wonder what Brother Gu Yuan's opinion is on the Dragon Clan, or rather, on this Eight-Star Dou Sheng of the Dragon Clan?" The Soul Emperor, harboring a slight disdain for Gu Yuan, went straight to the point. "Although the Dragon Clan is arrogant, aside from the struggle for supremacy among magical beasts, they have always been peaceful with the human race. The Ancient Clan, on the other hand, has adopted a wait-and-see attitude." "However, your Soul Clan," Gu Yuan said with a slight smile, "this attack on Dragon Island will likely be followed by a counterattack from the Dragon Clan!" "Hahahaha." Sensing the tone in Gu Yuan's words, the Soul Emperor suddenly burst into laughter, then stared directly into Gu Yuan's eyes, exuding an aura of dominance. "Brother Gu Yuan, this vast Dou Qi Continent is teeming with powerful figures, yet in my eyes, only you, Gu Yuan, can pose a threat to me!" With a burst of laughter, the Soul Emperor's figure slowly vanished, leaving only a solemn-faced Gu Yuan muttering to himself. "Soul Emperor, if you intend to use any tricks, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Looking towards Dragon Island, Gu Yuan nodded, a multitude of plans forming in his mind. "The Dragon Clan possesses an Eight-Star Dou Sheng, and they also have a grudge against the Soul Clan. We could cooperate!" The clash between Zhu Gong and the Void Devouring Flame naturally attracted the attention of the true pinnacle of power on the Dou Qi Continent. Many powerful figures from the Thunder Clan, Flame Clan, and other imperial clans turned their gazes towards this location. Upon seeing Zhu Gong's figure, their eyes involuntarily revealed a solemn expression. An Eight-Star Dou Sheng, aside from those two, is practically invincible. There are only three or four such powerhouses in the world. Zhu Gong was naturally aware of the commotion he had caused, but he had no time to concern himself with it. After sealing the Northern Dragon King and the others, he immediately went to the central altar of Dragon Island, where he met the pale-faced Zi Yan and the others. "This bloodline feels so similar, so very similar," Zhu Gong murmured to himself. His terrifying body, capable of colliding with the Void Devouring Flame, trembled slightly, and a few tears seemed to well up in his eyes. "Your Majesty, Zhu Gong finally knows of your whereabouts." On the altar, Zi Yan and the others looked at the old man before them, unsure how to begin. Zhu Gong had been away from Dragon Island for far too long. Apart from the elders who had reached the Half-Saint realm and were born earlier, the newborn "dragon cubs" had never seen him. "Your Highness Zi Yan, this is the Third Elder who followed the Dragon Emperor!" "Third Brother, this is Your Highness Zi Yan, a descendant of the Dragon Emperor's bloodline. It was Your Highness Zi Yan who brought back the Dragon Emperor's news!" Zhu Ying, whose complexion was gradually regaining its rosy hue, introduced them. "Let Your Highness rest with those dragon cubs for a while before discussing the Dragon Emperor's news. Using the Dragon Emperor's summoning order at a level below the Dou Sheng realm will cause great damage to the body!" As an old dragon who had experienced much, he no longer showed the urgency he had shown earlier when he saw Zi Yan's pale face. After bowing respectfully to Zi Yan, he departed, intending to observe the changes on Dragon Island thousands of years later compared to its former state. "Zi Yan, take this pill; it will aid your recovery!" After leaving with the Candle Bow, Lin Feng took out a Xuan Turtle from his storage ring and fed it to Zi Yan. Simultaneously, beams of Xuan light were sent to the many dragon guards, whose faces were also pale. "Gentlemen, this is a healing pill I refined; it has an excellent restorative effect on lost essence and blood." "Thank you, Prince Consort!" The dragon guards exchanged glances, clasped their hands in a fist salute, and swallowed the pills before them. They then withdrew, leaving the area to the two of them. Elder Qingshan and the old dragon, Zhu Ying, had long since disappeared. The healing pill Lin Feng gave Zi Yan was of the eighth grade, seventh color. In just half an hour, her lost essence and blood were regenerated, and her aura was even stronger than before. More of the medicinal power remained hidden deep within Zi Yan's body, awaiting the next recovery. Otherwise, even a healing pill of the eighth grade, seven-colored level, wouldn't be easily refined by a seven-star Dou Zun. It was only then that Lin Feng realized that during his seclusion, Zi Yan had already reached the seven-star Dou Zun realm. While compared to him, it was like a tortoise running, but compared to other Dou Zun experts, it was like a rocket. "This must be the Dragon Clan's way of nurturing their royal family. It's a pity Dragon Island has been divided for so many years; otherwise, this method would likely be even more powerful. Zi Yan might have already reached the nine-star Dou Zun or even the Transcendent Realm." "Lin Feng, those traitors and Soul Clan members attacked this time. Once we reach the Dou Sheng realm, we must make them know how terrifying the Black Wind Duo are!" Zi Yan's newly recovered face was full of fierceness. Aside from before being adopted by Elder Su Qian, when had she, Miss Zi Yan, ever suffered such a great loss? Moreover, now that a top-tier Dragon Clan expert was backing her, she immediately wanted to vent her anger. Although Lin Feng didn't speak, his face was full of agreement. He even had a vague idea for a revenge plan, and it was well-founded. Thinking of this, he immediately bid farewell to Zi Yan. "Soul Palace." Half a month had passed since the attack on East Dragon Island, and the island had undergone a complete transformation. Under the powerful methods of the eight-star Dou Sheng expert, Zhu Gong, the four Dragon Islands had merged into one and their positions had changed. With him personally overseeing the operation, even Gu Yuan and the Soul Emperor wouldn't be able to find the Dragon Island hidden in the void.
As for the Profound Pill Ancestor, after staying on Dragon Island for three days, he returned to the Pill Tower to guard against an attack from the Soul Palace.
During these three days, the Pill Tower also formally allied with the Dragon Clan and established a hidden spatial passage connecting the Small Pill Tower and Dragon Island.
Of course, this matter was only known to the higher-ups of both sides, namely the experts above the Dou Sheng level.
Zi Yan and Lin Feng were exceptions!
During this time, realizing that his strength was still seriously insufficient, Lin Feng, under the guidance of Elder Qingshan, returned to the Void Thunder Pool for a long period of seclusion!
He had decided to use the destructive and creative power of the Void Thunder Pool, combined with the pure Black Demon Thunder power sealed within his body by the Profound Pill Ancestor, to enter the Half-Saint realm.
In his mind, this wouldn't take too long!
Presumably, before that event occurred, he would definitely be able to emerge from seclusion and obtain a new title.
For example, Maple Saint!
While Lin Feng was focusing all his efforts on improving himself, Cai Lin and Little Fairy Doctor also emerged from seclusion once. After learning about the situation on Dragon Island, they immediately returned to their secluded cultivation place, intending to advance to the Transcendent Realm or even the Half-Saint realm before emerging from seclusion.
This was not an exaggeration. With Zi Yan's help, Cai Lin obtained the incomplete bodies of many Devouring Pythons that had been killed by the Dragon Clan.
Although there wasn't much inheritance within them, Cai Lin could still directly absorb this power of the same origin, and today she evolved rapidly.
The aura faintly revealed from her body was only slightly weaker than Zi Yan, who had obtained the royal inheritance. Although the Devouring Pythons were no match for the Ancient Void Dragon, they weren't much weaker.
It can only be said that even among the many Dragon Emperors, Zhu Kun was a formidable existence!
As for Little Fairy Doctor, needless to say, after obtaining the Netherworld Poison Fire, she completely unleashed herself.
As long as there was poison, she could advance without any bottlenecks, although she needed to allocate half of her energy to the Netherworld Poison Fire for its evolution.
However, under the bombardment of poison accumulated over countless years on Dragon Island, at least before reaching the Dou Sheng level, energy accumulation is not a concern at all.
Of course, true powerhouses not only need energy accumulation but also the skill to utilize it and strengthen their soul's origin.
However, before entering the Dou Sheng or even the Half-Saint level, these are not important.
In fact, the biggest beneficiary of this attack on Dragon Island was Qing Lin, the possessor of the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil.
Under the suppression of the endless dragon energy in the Dragon Tomb, Qing Lin had completely controlled the incomplete soul of the Ancient Heavenly Serpent and further developed the power of the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil.
With the help of many powerful members of the Nine Netherworld Python, especially the Grand Elder of the Nine Netherworld Python, a one-star Dou Sheng level expert, she even reached the eight-star Dou Zun level.
The pure Dou Sheng level Dou Qi meant that Qing Lin's Dou Qi didn't even need polishing; under these circumstances, she could even enter the Dou Sheng level without any bottlenecks.
Before she could even fully absorb this immense benefit, Yao Xiaotian, that kind soul, delivered it right to her doorstep again. This year could be considered Qing Lin's lucky year.
It's unimaginable what level Qing Lin will reach after completely absorbing the power of the two one-star Dou Sheng.
Perhaps, the only thing limiting her is how to control the rapidly increasing, boundless Dou Qi!
This kind of trouble is something that countless Dou Qi cultivators on the Dou Qi Continent wouldn't even dare to dream of!
Time passed gradually as everyone secluded themselves for cultivation.
