Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

Chapter 336 Ancient Realm War

(I'll update one chapter now, the rest around noon.)

"Damn it! The Soul Clan has gone too far! Elders, heed my command: Form the Ancient Emperor Mirror array!"

Gu Lie was also furious. How could the four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan be so arrogant just because of the Void Devouring Flame?

All the elders of the ancient clan gathered at the Black Annihilation King Gu Lie. The fighting spirit of the Dou Sheng elders condensed into an ancient mirror that covered the sky and the earth. Ripples flowed on its surface, and then an enormous pillar of light shot out!

"Oh no! It's the Ancient Emperor Mirror! Lord Void!"

A jet-black flame appeared in the sky, then a finger pressed down on the void, landing directly on the pillar of light!

"Void Devouring Flame! Nine-Star Dou Sheng!" Gu Lie had already sensed the power of the Void Devouring Flame. With the clan leader absent, the Gu Clan could not withstand such a powerful figure!

"Void Devouring Flame! Soul Clan! You have gone too far! Ancient Clan members, heed my command! With blood to transform the heavens, in the name of antiquity, summon our Ancestor back!"

A startling crimson light emanated from Gu Lie's body, accompanied by the three immortals of the Ancient Clan! As long as they were members of the Ancient Clan, their Dou Di bloodline began to ignite!

At this moment, a great array suddenly appeared in the sky of the Ancient Realm! All the Dou Di bloodlines of the ancient clans flew towards the great array in the sky, and a blood-red ocean gathered in the sky!

"The progenitor has returned!"

Gu Lie and the three immortals of the ancient clan simultaneously formed hand seals and roared angrily to the sky.

Whoosh—

As the angry roar fell, a vortex appeared in the center of the great formation, and the Dou Di bloodlines of all the ancient clans surged into it! At the same time, an extremely ancient and powerful aura slowly emanated from the vortex. The vortex spun rapidly and finally dissipated quietly. As the vortex disappeared, a middle-aged man in a white robe appeared in this world.

The progenitor of the ancient race! The ancient emperor!

After the middle-aged man's phantom appeared, all the ancient clans in the entire ancient realm trembled and knelt down in worship towards that figure!

"The progenitor!"

Void Devouring Flame frowned. Things were beyond his imagination. He had already seen two phantoms of Dou Di, namely the Spirit Emperor and the Stone Emperor, but those two remnant soul phantoms were extremely illusory, while the remnant soul of the ancient emperor in front of him was extremely solid!

Void Devouring Flame could sense that the remnant soul of the ancient emperor before him possessed the strength of a nine-star Dou Sheng, no less than his own. This was troublesome!

Moreover, the entire Ancient Realm is even larger than the Spirit Stone Realm! A thousand years ago, the Ancient Clan swallowed up the Xiao Clan's Xiao Realm, making the space of the Ancient Realm incredibly stable. It was only by chance that the Void Devouring Flame's soul, having entered the Emperor Realm, could barely cover the entire Ancient Realm!

Now, facing this remnant soul of an ancient emperor, he had little confidence.

"Soul Emperor, what are you doing! Why aren't you here yet!" Void Devouring Flame cursed inwardly.

Because the Soul Emperor had previously discovered that Gu Yuan had left the Ancient Clan, he took the Emperor-Slaying Ghost Blood Blade and went to hunt down Gu Yuan, while he led the Soul Clan's elite troops to the Ancient Realm to annihilate the Ancient Clan!

When they arrived in the Ancient Realm, it was like kicking a steel plate. The quality of the Ancient Clan's Battle Saints was too high, no less than that of the Soul Clan!

In particular, the ancient clan has a living early-stage Eight-Star Dou Sheng!

The Soul Clan currently has no living eight-star Dou Sheng, only four living dead, and they cannot be deployed at will. The Soul Emperor's plan is that those four living dead will deal with the entire continent! The Gate of Deathly Silence is a killing move and cannot be deployed prematurely!

The original plan between Void Devouring Flame and Soul Emperor was that Soul Emperor would assassinate Gu Yuan, and after succeeding, he would turn around and help Void Devouring Flame, because the Ancient Clan was not a pushover even without Gu Yuan! In particular, the Ancient Clan had never experienced any major extermination incidents since its establishment.

It would be most reasonable for the two of them to join forces to destroy the ancient clan.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the Dou Qi Continent, "Ahem~ Gu Yuan! Very well! I didn't expect you to have something like this hidden on you! But we've already got the Ancient Emperor Jade! Next up are the other imperial clans!"

The Soul Emperor was now emaciated, and the blood-red blade in his hand exuded a chilling aura!

"Clan leader, take the pills!" A man in black appeared out of thin air, taking out several pills and placing them in front of Soul Emperor.

If someone knowledgeable were present, they would recognize that these are all Grade 9 Mystic Pills!

The Soul Emperor swallowed all the ninth-grade Xuan pills, and his injuries began to heal gradually, his emaciated body becoming plump again.

"The price of using the Emperor-Slaying Demon Blood Blade was too high, sacrificing the entire Spirit Clan. This time, it only severely injured Gu Yuan, not killed him. This item is too costly for me now!"

The Soul Emperor sighed. He was originally confident that he could kill Gu Yuan with the help of the Emperor-Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, but he did not expect that Gu Yuan also carried an ancient treasure. Gu Yuan sacrificed it to barely survive.

"Clan leader, what's next? Lord Void might need some..." Hun Xuzi asked.

"No need. I need to rest. We've already obtained the Ancient Emperor Jade of the Ancient Clan, and the Ancient Jades of the Flame, Thunder, and Medicine Clans will be ready soon. The only troublesome thing is that the Ancient Emperor Jade of the Spirit Clan is in Xiao Li's hands! This person will be an even more troublesome fellow than Gu Yuan!"

The Soul Emperor's gaze was cold and sharp. He had almost collected all the Ancient Emperor Jade pieces. The only variable was Xiao Li.

"Clan leader, that Xiao Li is just a young boy, why are you asking?"

The Soul Emperor sneered: "A mere brat? Have you ever seen a brat who can break through to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng level within a hundred years? Even Xiao Xuan couldn't do it! This kid is more troublesome than Xiao Xuan!"

Xiao Xuan is incredibly arrogant, to the point of looking down on everyone. To put it bluntly, he's a hothead. I have plenty of ways to deal with this kind of brainless brute.

But Xiao Li was completely different from Xiao Xuan. If Xiao Xuan was like a fierce tiger dominating the mountains and forests, then Xiao Li was like a venomous snake beneath withered leaves! Extremely dangerous; he might strike you hard when you least expect it!

Hun Xuzi was also startled: "Is this child really that terrifying?"

The Soul Emperor chuckled, "Heh heh, this boy is the same kind of person as me. It's a pity he's from the Xiao Clan. If he were from my Soul Clan, I would trust him the most! Soul Jade and Soul Wind are ultimately not up to much use!"

In the ancient realm, the towering figure surveyed the surroundings. Unlike other races, the ancient race had never experienced any major calamities since its founding, and the remnant soul imprint left by the ancient emperor had never been used.

At this moment, the remnant soul of the ancient emperor was intact. Although it had suffered some damage over time, it was not a major issue. The remnant soul of the ancient emperor still had its own memories and consciousness!

"The Soul Clan? The Void Devouring Flame? I never expected that the descendants of the Soul Emperor would actually attack my Ancient Clan! The Ancient Clan... it's alright, they haven't been defeated. I remember that the Ancient Clan should have a supreme expert in this era, why isn't he guarding the clan?"

The remnant soul of the ancient emperor spoke, his voice was ordinary, but it had a special rhythm that made the soul race people opposite him feel quite dizzy!

"Please, Ancestor, save my ancient clan! Our patriarch went out to search for the young lady, but then disappeared without a trace. Now the Soul Clan has come knocking on our door. It must have been that Soul Clan bastard who assassinated our patriarch! Please, Ancestor, grant us justice!"

Gu Lie and the elders of the ancient clan knelt on the ground, prostrating themselves before the remnant soul of the ancient emperor and wailing.

The remnant soul of the ancient emperor looked at the black figures: "Since that's the case, you may all stay here!"
