Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 388 Leaving the Thunder Realm, Accident

In a huge dark palace, in the center, stands a majestic black skeleton throne.

At a certain moment, an old man in black flashed in from outside the hall, walked quickly to the foot of the skeleton throne, looked up at the throne respectfully with awe in his eyes, then knelt on one knee towards the throne and held up a scroll with both hands.

"Master Palace Master, there is an urgent letter from within the clan. It is a joint letter from Master Hunyun, Master Hunfeng, and Master Hunyu."

The respectful voice echoed in the empty hall. There was a hint of urgency in the voice, but it did not dare to be disrespectful in the slightest.

"Oh, an urgent letter from Hunyun and the others?"

A slightly playful voice sounded, as if coming from the depths of the distant darkness, carrying with it an elusive sense of mystery.

As the sound rang out, the space around the throne began to distort. After a while, several dark space cracks slowly appeared, and thick black fog seeped out from them like a tide, instantly filling the entire hall.

The black mist intertwined and gathered on the throne, revealing a figure in black. He sat lazily on the skull throne with his right hand supporting his cheek. There was an inexplicable majesty in his calmness.

The moment he appeared, the scroll in the black-clothed old man's hand trembled, as if it was pulled by some invisible force, and flew out of his hand, slowly flew in front of the throne and unfolded.

On the throne, the deputy master of the Soul Palace raised his eyes slightly, quickly scanned the unfolded scroll, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"I see. This development is really... interesting!"

The deputy hall master closed the scroll with a wave of his hand, and after a moment of hesitation, he said in a serious tone, "Hun Ge, you must immediately send a message to the Earth Hall. In the name of this hall, summon the Great and Second Heavenly Venerables to come to the Earth Hall to meet me. I have something important to discuss with you."

The old man in black heard this and his expression changed slightly. A hint of shock flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his respectful expression: "Yes, Lord Palace Master."

Immediately, he moved, like a flash of black lightning, and quickly left the hall.

On the throne, the deputy hall master lightly tapped his forehead, a hint of amusement emerged in his dark eyes: "You even defeated Hun Feng and Hun Yu who have divine blood. Yuan Tianzun, your strength is beyond my expectation!"

"As for the ambush, it's a good opportunity! Hehehe, if we play this role well, we may be able to plant a chess piece that will kill us in the camp that is hostile to our race..."

"However, since this matter involves the disciple of Master Dan Sheng, we need to report it."

Thinking of this, the deputy hall master slowly stood up, took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared from the throne.
-
The next day, when the morning light poured down on the Tianlei Mountains, this mountain range that had been silent all night became lively again.

In the sky, the sound of breaking wind was heard continuously.

The final ceremony of the First Thunder Ceremony also ended completely last night. Today is the time for all the ancient clans and Central Plains forces to leave the Thunder Realm.

Lin Yuan and his party walked out of the courtyard and flew towards the front mountain range. When they arrived, there were already several huge warships suspended in the air again, surrounded by rolling dark clouds, and the momentum was quite mighty.

Lin Yuan glanced around and saw many familiar figures, Yun Yun, Gu Xun'er, Gu Zhen, Shi Yi, Huo Zhi...

After meeting Lin Yuan's gaze, most people responded with friendly smiles.

Hunfeng, Hunyu and Hunyun all showed confident and cold smiles on their faces. Three pairs of eyes looked at Lin Yuan indifferently, as if they were looking at a dead person.

"Hehehe, boy Danta, you will soon know... what tragic consequences will arise after offending my Soul Clan." Hun Yun's lips moved slightly, and a voice full of murderous intent sounded in Lin Yuan's ears, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which made people shudder.

"Haha, I'll wait!" Lin Yuan smiled, moved his lips slightly, and gave the other party a disdainful sneer, without any fear in his eyes.

"Woo-"

As more and more people arrived here, the sound of horns was heard from the warships in the sky, and it was obvious that they were about to start sending everyone away from the Thunder Realm.

"Mr. Mang, the time has come. We will meet again if we are destined to..."

Lin Yuan bowed and said goodbye to Mang Tianchi, then turned around, took a step forward, and his figure turned into a beam of light. He followed Xuan Kongzi onto one of the warships, and Xiao Yixian and the others saw this and hurriedly followed.

"Woo-"

Not long after, the sound of the horn rang out again, and the warship trembled, then flew towards the exit of the thunder realm like an arrow.

After thinking for a moment, Mang Tianchi took a step forward, and his figure disappeared instantly as if blending into the world.
-
Above Tianlei Lake, a sea of ​​thunder was surging.

At a certain moment, an extremely dazzling ray of lightning suddenly burst out from the depths of Tianlei Lake, striking directly at the silver light shield surrounding it and connecting with it.

The runes engraved around Tianlei Lake suddenly burst into a brilliant silver light.

Not long after, the silver light shield slowly dissipated, and in the center of Lei Ze, the sea of ​​thunder spun rapidly. After a few minutes, it turned into a lightning vortex hundreds of feet in size. In the center of the vortex, huge stone doors hundreds of feet in size suddenly appeared.

One after another, figures flashed out from the twisted space in the center of the stone gate and landed lightly on the surrounding stone pillars. For a moment, the entire Tianlei Lake became noisy again.

Lin Yuan and others also jumped out of the stone gate and landed steadily on the stone pillars of Danta.

The moment he landed, a message was transmitted through the Skynet to the Yuheng Order: "Miss Xun'er, according to our previous agreement, I arranged a meeting between you and Xiao Yan. Please return it to me!"

After receiving the message, Gu Xun'er on the ancient clan's stone pillar narrowed her eyes slightly, tilted her head to look in the direction of the Danta stone pillar, and her eyes met with Lin Yuan who was looking back.

Xun'er nodded slightly and sent a message: "I understand, but you also have to help me protect Xiao Yan... Brother, don't let him get involved."

Lin Yuan raised his lips slightly and replied: "Haha, are you still my brother? Don't worry, at least in this possible crisis, Xiao Yan and I are in the same boat. If you don't let me down, I will do my best to protect Xiao Yan."

After finishing the message, he retracted his gaze and looked at Xuan Kongzi in front of him.

"Let's go, let's go back to Jilei City first."

Xuan Kongzi looked around and identified the direction. He called out to Lin Yuan and the others, then he moved and rushed towards the direction of Ji Lei City. Lin Yuan and the others flew into the air and followed closely behind Xuan Kongzi.

Seeing Lin Yuan leaving, Hun Yu quickly walked to Hun Yun and whispered, "Elder Hun Yun, we..."

As he spoke, he tilted his head slightly and signaled Danta and his group with his eyes. A fierce look flashed across his calm eyes. At the same time, he made a throat-cutting gesture with his hand, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

"No rush!" Hun Yun glanced at the surrounding forces and then shook his head.

"There are too many people here, and there are many people who are against us. This is not a good place to take action. Calculating the time, the deputy hall master should have received our message. Let's go to the nearby Soul Hall branch to synchronize the information first, let's go..."

Before he finished speaking, he turned around, causing a spatial fluctuation, and his figure quickly disappeared.

Upon seeing this, the Soul Clan members did not hesitate at all. They flashed and turned into a black mist, rushing to the edge of the sky like lightning and quickly disappeared.

On the other side, Xun'er walked lightly to the side of Elder Tongxuan and said, "Elder Tongxuan, Xun'er has something I would like to ask you to do..."
-
A few hours later, several black figures flashed up in front of the Northern Branch of the Soul Palace.

"This aura... is from that lord!" Feeling a powerful aura, Hun Yun's face changed slightly, a trace of awe flashed in his eyes, and he quickly moved to the main hall in the center of the branch hall, and bowed to the old man who was standing in front of the throne with his hands behind his back.

"Greetings, Your Excellency the Great Lord. I didn't expect that you would come here in person..."

“No need to be polite!” The old man waved his hand and said calmly, “The matter you reported is of great importance to the deputy hall master, and he specially asked me to come here in person to handle it…”

As he spoke, he slowly turned around, and a familiar face appeared before Hun Yun's eyes.

This was a skinny old man who looked like a skeleton. He was wearing a loose black robe that made a slight rustling sound when it swayed. His old face was extremely dry, his eyes were sunken, and in his eye sockets, two balls of ghostly fire were flickering, exuding a hint of weirdness.

As he turned around, a vast aura belonging to the Fighting Saint level surged out in the empty hall like a surging tide, impacting every corner of the hall.

This is not a half-saint, but a true fighting saint.

Although both are powerful saints, there is a huge gap between the semi-saint and the real fighting saint in terms of strength and status.

Hearing the old man's words, Hun Yun's eyes flashed with joy, and he said in a deep voice: "Great, with you taking action personally, even if there are blind guys trying to stop us, we will surely succeed this time and capture and kill that hateful kid..."

Before he finished speaking, the space beside him shook slightly, and a strange figure emerged, saying playfully: "Hehe, this matter is not that simple! There is something behind it..."

"Hmm?" Seeing the newcomer, Hun Yun's eyes flashed with surprise, "Gu You, why are you here too? Who were you referring to when you just mentioned the inside story?"

"Brother?" The Second Heavenly Venerable Gu You did not answer the question, but looked at the Great Heavenly Venerable.

"Tell him the plan!" The Great Celestial Master nodded, waved his hand to seal off the space in the hall, and then looked at Hun Yun seriously, "Hun Yun, this is an important plan for our Soul Hall. You must not leak out anything you are about to hear. Do you understand?"

Seeing the two of them being extremely serious, Hun Yun concentrated his mind and said in a deep voice, "I understand. I will never leak a single word from now on!"

After the Great Celestial Venerable and the Second Celestial Venerable exchanged a glance, the Second Celestial Venerable spoke slowly: "Hunyun, although you may find it hard to believe, Medicine Monarch Lin Yuan... is one of ours!"

"What?" Such explosive news immediately made Hun Yun exclaim in surprise.

Seeing the other party's surprised expression, Er Tianzun raised the corner of his mouth slightly and a smile flashed in his eyes - one of the main reasons why he became a commentator was to see this kind of expression.

"Hehehe, let me tell you in detail..."

An hour later, several black rays of light flew out from the branch hall and rushed towards Jilei City.
-
Northern Territory, Jilei City.

“Since President Xuan said so, I will believe it for now.” The leader of Tianming Sect bowed to Xuan Kongzi and said in a deep voice: “Follow-up, if President Xuan gets any information related to the death of Demon Flower Evil Monarch, please let me know.”

"Of course!" Xuan Kongzi waved his hand and said with a warm smile on his face.

Seeing this, Tianming Sect Master narrowed his eyes slightly, raised a strange smile at the corner of his mouth, and waved goodbye, "In this case, we will not disturb you any further. Goodbye!"

After saying that, he led everyone from the Tianming Sect and quickly left the Jilei City Alchemist Guild.

"Were you persuaded so easily?" Looking at the people from Tianming Sect leaving, a hint of doubt appeared in Xuankongzi's eyes.

After a while, he seemed to have figured something out, and his face suddenly changed, "Oh no, it's a trap!"

"The Tianming Sect's bastards came to the guild to cause trouble, not to investigate the death of Demon Flower Evil Monarch, but to use the name of investigation to delay me and take Lin Yuan and the others back to Shengdan City."

"The one who has such a motive and has such influence on the Tianming Sect... Damn it, it's the Soul Palace!"

After coming to a bad conclusion, Xuan Kongzi's face suddenly changed, and he turned his body and flashed towards Lin Yuan's courtyard.

"Master Xuan, what's wrong? Why do you look so anxious?" Lin Yuan looked at Xuan Kongzi puzzledly and asked doubtfully, "Is it the Tianming Sect..."

However, before he could finish his words, Xuan Kongzi interrupted him.

"Lin Yuan, we may have been set up by the Soul Palace, but time is running out. Now is not the time to explain. I will tell you in detail later! Now, take Ying'er and the others into the space channel and prepare to leave Jilei City..."

However, before he could finish his words, something unexpected had already happened.

A chilling aura suddenly came from the distant sky, and then a cold shout filled with murderous intent resounded across the sky above Jilei City.

"Medicine Lord Lin Yuan, Hun Yun is here to visit you, please show yourself, hehehe..."
