Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 247 Soul Wind: Why Don't the Ancient Clan Steal the Demon Flame?

"Let's attack together..."

Gu Fei smiled, glanced at the group, and then mobilized a large amount of battle qi, pouring it into the great formation cast by Hun Miesheng.

Seeing this, the other five ancient races' Battle Saint experts also increased their Battle Qi infusion.

"You think you can seal me away? Don't even think about it!"

The Pure Lotus Demon Flame began a frenzied counterattack.

This caused Hun Miesheng and the seven people, including Gu Fei, to have very ugly expressions.

"Everyone, let's fight it!"

Hun Miesheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a ferocious look appeared on his originally ordinary face. He bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence, which then shot into the pillar of light.

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

As the seven began to fight desperately, the light within the pillar suddenly intensified.

The enormous body of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame began to shrink rapidly under the energy of the array.

"Heavenly Net Demon-Sealing Formation, seal!"

Seeing this, Hun Mie Shi was overjoyed. His hand seals changed rapidly, and he let out a final, fierce shout.

In a short moment, the black array transformed into a black cylinder about ten feet in diameter. Within the cylinder, a milky-white flame slowly rose, and an extremely terrifying temperature quietly spread out.

"It's a success..."

Seeing this, Huo Yao and the others breathed a sigh of relief, at least their lives were no longer in danger.

As the Pure Lotus Demon Flame was sealed by the great formation, a brief silence fell over the sky.

"Hehe, this cooperation has truly been a pleasure. The demonic fire has finally been sealed, sparing the people of Central Plains from further devastation. Thank you!"

After taking a moment to recover, Hun Miesheng laughed loudly and cupped his hands in greeting to Gu Fei and the others.

"Is this guy... going to start stealing the demon fire?!"

Gu Fei already knew about the Soul Extinction Business Diagram.

Although he still had some energy left, he pretended to be extremely exhausted.

Furthermore, he also sent a telepathic message to Gu Nanhai, who was watching from afar, indicating that he should not try to seize the demon fire, but simply watch the show from the sidelines.

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Nanhai was filled with doubt, but he still trusted Gu Fei's judgment.

"Haha, thank you all so much for today! My Soul Clan will remember your kindness!"

As Gu Fei had predicted, Hun Miesheng quickly reached out and grabbed at the black pillar of light in the sky.

Under that immense suction force, the black beam of light began to move rapidly toward Soul Extinction.

"You bastard!"

"The Soul Clan really did have other plans!"

This scene startled the others, who quickly came to their senses, and their angry curses immediately resounded through the sky.

"Hmph, taking away the demonic fire? Not so easy!"

Elder Huo Yao of the Yan Clan and the elder from the Lei Clan, who possessed the cultivation of a four-star Dou Sheng, suppressed the surging blood and qi within their bodies and joined forces to deliver a powerful palm strike to the black pillar of light.

Under their combined attack, the direction of the black beam of light was forcibly reversed.

"You bastard!"

Upon seeing this, Hun Miesheng was furious.

However, he did not attack the two directly at this moment, but instead sent a telepathic message to Hun Feng and another member of the Hun Clan.

"Aren't you two going to steal the demon fire?"

"Let's do it!"

Upon hearing this, Hunfeng and the other person immediately reacted and reached out to grab the pillar of light.

These two are considered top experts in this region, apart from the ancient clans. Other forces, such as the Burning Flame Valley and the Pill Tower, cannot find any experts who can rival them.

"That's the source of the demonic fire! Grab it now!"

At this moment, almost everyone on the sea realized what was happening, and immediately fiery red gazes were cast toward the black beam of light that was constantly flying in the sky.

Because inside lies the primordial power that seals the demonic fire; whoever obtains it will undoubtedly experience an instant surge in strength!

"call out!"

Countless people frantically used their movement techniques to grab at the black pillar of light.

"The ancient clan's elder from the South China Sea didn't set out to seize it. Could this be a trap?"

Huo Zhi and Huo Xuan were suspicious as they watched Gu Nanhai, the most powerful contender, remain rooted to the spot.

"Perhaps, in the eyes of the South Sea Elder, the safety of Miss Xun'er is more important than the demonic fire!" Huo Zhi said with emotion in his eyes.

In her view, Xun'er's arrival was a huge burden; otherwise, with the two four-star Dou Sheng of the ancient clan, they would definitely be the biggest winners in this battle for the Pure Lotus Demon Flame.

"Elder of the South Sea, don't worry about me for now, go and seize the demonic fire..."

Xun'er saw that Gu Nanhai was standing still.

They subconsciously assumed that Gu Nanhai was afraid to take action because he was worried about his safety.

Remembering Gu Fei's confident attitude towards the demon fire, Xun'er didn't want to disappoint him.

She would feel very guilty if she lost the demon fire because Gu Nanhai was protecting her.

"Miss Xun'er, the young clan leader just warned us that we mustn't try to steal this demonic flame!"

Gu Nanhai explained.

"Can't we just rob it?"

Upon hearing this explanation, Xun'er subconsciously assumed that Gu Fei had instructed Gu Nanhai to protect himself, which was why...

"The young clan leader must have his reasons for doing this; we shouldn't act rashly!"

Gu Nanhai continued.

On the other side, a powerful figure from Zhongzhou who was relatively close had already snatched the black pillar of light.

"Haha, I've obtained the essence of the demonic fire!" The man laughed excitedly.

However, just as his laughter rang out, nearly ten fierce punches slammed into him without any mercy.

"Bang!"

Under such intense attacks, this powerful individual with the strength of a high-level semi-saint died before he could even utter a scream.

"Get out of here!"

Two members of the Soul Clan arrived, and with their strength, the others were no match for them.

Although Hun Feng was only a late-stage two-star Dou Sheng, his combat power was comparable to that of an ordinary three-star Dou Sheng. With just a few casual moves, he killed more than a dozen powerful figures around him.

"Heh heh, the essence of the demonic fire now belongs to my Soul Clan..."

Hunfeng grabbed the black pillar of light, a look of wild joy on his face. He hadn't expected the seizure of the demonic fire's origin to be so smooth.

So what if the ancient clan sent two four-star Dou Sheng? In the end, it was still the Soul Clan that benefited.

"Damn it, we can't let the demonic fire fall into the hands of the Soul Clan!"

At this moment, the several four-star Dou Sheng who had fought against the Pure Lotus Demon Flame in the distance were all extremely angry, but they could not make a move for the time being.

Having just defeated the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, most of them are somewhat weak and need to recover.

"Young Master Gu Fei, doesn't your clan also have Gu Nanhai? Why didn't you try to seize it?"

Huo Yao looked at Gu Fei in surprise.

As soon as he finished speaking, the other Dou Sheng experts from the other races were also curious. Gu Nanhai had not participated in the battle just now, and his condition was the best among them. If he, with his four-star Dou Sheng cultivation, were to make a move, would he give Hun Feng a chance?

"Hehe, the rumors circulating that Young Master Gu Fei and Miss Xun'er are at odds are completely unfounded. Your willingness to give up the source of your demonic fire to protect Miss Xun'er's safety is truly admirable!"

Hun Miesheng's words were polite on the surface, but they were full of sarcasm. If it were him, he would rather lose Hun Feng than lose the demon fire.
