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

Inside the spatial passage, the boundless darkness was as thick as ink, seemingly capable of swallowing all light.

The violent spatial turbulence roared past, and sharp spatial fragments occasionally tore through the void, emitting a piercing shriek.

Within this, a massive black flame figure was moving at an extremely fast speed.

The usually arrogant Void Devouring Flame now appeared utterly disheveled.

Its body, wreathed in black flames, was covered with wounds of all sizes, from which black flames occasionally spilled out, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

The creature's eyes, as deep as black holes, flashed with pain and rage, clearly indicating that the battle had been extremely difficult for it.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"That damned Gu Yuan!"

The furious roar of the Void Devouring Flame echoed through the spatial passage, causing the surrounding space to tremble.

Its massive body trembled violently, and with each opening of its mouth, a large amount of black flames spewed out, leaving eerie traces in the void.

"Such a perfect plan was discovered by the ancient clans right from the start."

"Void Devouring Flame," he said through gritted teeth, his voice filled with resentment and frustration.

I originally thought this operation was flawless, and that even that old man Gu Yuan couldn't have noticed it so quickly.

Unexpectedly, before the plan had even begun, Gu Yuan arrived at the scene with that junior, catching it completely off guard.

It's obvious.

If the news hadn't leaked beforehand, how could Gu Yuan have coincidentally appeared in the Spirit Clan at this time!

This matter must have been leaked from within the Soul Clan.

Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Void Devouring Flame's deep eyes.

"Soul Emperor, I told you long ago, don't trust your useless subordinates too much!"

"When too many people know about something, there's always a risk of it being leaked!"

The next moment, Void Devouring Flame turned to look at Soul Emperor beside him, his voice carrying a hint of reproach.

Upon hearing this, the Soul Emperor frowned slightly.

In an instant, a powerful pressure emanated from the Soul Emperor.

Seeing this, Void Devouring Flame quickly shut its mouth.

Clearly, the Soul Emperor was very unhappy with the accusations from the Void Devouring Flame!

But things quickly calmed down.

As the lord of the Soul Clan, the Soul Emperor knew that this was not the time to argue about these things.

Especially since this Void Devouring Flame is still useful!

The two traversed the spatial passage, with spatial rifts appearing from time to time around them, emitting a heart-pounding buzzing sound.

The turbulent spatial currents, like invisible blades, constantly assaulted their bodies.

Finally, after a long journey, a faint light appeared ahead.

……

Soul world.

In a deep canyon, surrounded by pitch-black mountains, it seemed to be isolated from the world.

The entire complex was pitch black, exuding a sinister and eerie aura, as if it could devour all light.

Countless lifelike statues of spirits stand in the square in front of the palace, each one so lifelike that it seems as if it might come to life at any moment.

Eerie will-o'-the-wisps occasionally drifted across the sky, adding to the eerie atmosphere of the area.

The figures of the Soul Emperor and the Void Devouring Flame emerged from the spatial rift and landed in a large hall in the center.

The main hall was spacious, with countless strange soul artifacts hanging on the walls, emitting a faint blue light.

The Soul Emperor slowly walked to the throne and sat down. His gaze swept over the Void Devouring Flame's battered body, and his brows furrowed slightly.

That's right!

This time, the Soul Clan suffered a great loss!

I don't know when the wounds from this Void Devouring Flame will heal.

There's more to this than meets the eye.

"It's absolutely impossible for our clan to leak the plan."

The Soul Emperor said in a deep voice, his tone carrying a hint of displeasure.

Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Void Devouring Flame's eyes, which were as deep as black holes.

Just as the Void Devouring Flame was about to retort, the Soul Emperor raised his hand to stop it.

"The most important thing now is how to protect you!"

The Soul Emperor's voice became solemn.

"Gu Yuan was right before. Once your Devouring Spirit Clan's abilities are exposed, the other ancient races on the continent will definitely stand against my Soul Clan without hesitation."

"After all, no one can tolerate the continued existence of something that can plunder the bloodline power of others on the Dou Qi Continent. The various ancient races will attack you just as they did when they besieged the Devouring Spirit Clan!"

Having said that, the Soul Emperor crossed his hands on his knees and stared intently at the Void Devouring Flame.

Upon hearing these words, the massive body of Void Devouring Flame trembled slightly, a complex expression flashing in its deep eyes as it stared intently at Soul Emperor.

"this"

"You wouldn't be planning to hand me over to save your Soul Clan, would you?"

The Void Devouring Flame was clearly numb.

If the Soul Emperor were to take advantage of his current predicament, given his severely injured state, it would be disastrous.

"If I really intended to do that, I wouldn't have shown myself just now, leaving Gu Yuan to his own devices."

Upon hearing this, the Soul Emperor's face showed displeasure. A sharp glint flashed in his deep, abyss-like eyes as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Of course I trust you."

"So what do we do next?"

Upon hearing this, the Void Devouring Flame's massive body relaxed slightly.

It glanced at the Soul Emperor with a complicated expression, its tone tinged with helplessness.

"Since things have come to this, we can only ask that brat Miesheng to put in a little more effort and gather enough soul essence, hoping to help you advance to the Emperor Realm!"

The Soul Emperor pondered for a moment, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

That's right!

In fact, the Soul Emperor had just thought of restraining Gu Yuan and letting the Void Devouring Flame kill all the Spirit Clan members to silence them. But if they relied solely on the Gu Clan's words, not many people would believe them.

Unfortunately, Void Devouring Flame was already severely injured before he arrived.

Even if he manages to hold off Gu Yuan, he might not be able to wipe out the entire Spirit Clan.

The Soul Clan clearly underestimated their opponent this time; who would have thought that the Ancient Clan would intervene at such a crucial moment?

If that had been done back then, the ancient tribes would have been able to arrive very quickly.

Furthermore, since the Spirit Race's space is not sealed off, it is clearly impossible to annihilate all of the Spirit Race.

"Yes, once I reach the Emperor Realm Soul stage, I can hold off that old bastard Gu Yuan!"

Void Devouring Flame nodded in agreement, a glint of anticipation flashing in his deep eyes.

Thunder Realm, the sacred land of the ancient Thunder Clan

The scenery here is completely different from the ordinary world.

Looking around, one sees strange trees shimmering with silver light everywhere—these are the unique silver trees of the Thunder Clan. These silver trees not only continuously transmit thunderous power into the world, but are also an important resource for the Thunder Clan's cultivation.

The silver tree's branches forked and meandered like lightning, its leaves serrated and shimmering with a silvery-blue light. A gentle breeze blew, and the leaves collided with each other, making a soft "crackling" sound, as if countless tiny electric currents were flowing through them.

The entire silver forest exuded a chilling aura, making it impossible for ordinary people to approach.
