Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Hun Xuzi sat cross-legged above the main hall. Black flames continuously seeped from his body, making it look like a black hole from afar, endlessly devouring everything in the world.

"call!"

In the sky, a sudden gust of wind emanated from the body of the seated Soul Void Child, followed by a surge of overwhelming black flames. The suction force directly pulled up the numerous soul essence light clusters.

As soon as these soul essences came into contact with the black flames, they were directly devoured. As more and more soul essences were forcibly devoured by that figure, a terrifying soul fluctuation gradually emanated from Hun Xuzi's body.

"roar!"

The fluctuations grew stronger and stronger until they became almost tangible, causing space itself to distort.

A deep roar came from Hun Xuzi's mouth, and then he suddenly stood up. Instantly, a monstrous surge of soul energy erupted like a volcano, covering the sky and the earth.

Meanwhile, the Void Devouring Flame from the outside world appeared here and merged into Hun Xuzi's body, as if it had been directly devoured and refined by Hun Xuzi.

At the mountaintop, a figure stood with his hands behind his back. He looked up at the 'Soul Void Child' in the sky and smiled faintly. His white robes made him stand out in the dark and gloomy space.

With a single step, the Soul Emperor appeared before the Void Devouring Flame in the sky. After carefully examining the latter, he smiled and said, "Not bad. After going through so much trouble, you have finally reached the Emperor Realm Soul."

"Ha ha."

Void Devouring Flame couldn't help but laugh out loud. For beings like him, it is generally extremely difficult to cultivate their souls to the Emperor Realm.

Fortunately, the Soul Palace had refined a great deal of soul essence over the years, and with that immense power of essence, they managed to lift him up.

However, the price of this upgrade was quite high. Most of the soul essence that the Soul Palace had painstakingly gathered over the years was devoured by him.

However, Void Devouring Flame holds an extremely high position in the Soul Clan, and no one can say anything about him enjoying such treatment.

The Void Devouring Flame has now possessed Soul Void Child!

Of course, his consciousness was not erased by the Soul Emperor. If the Soul Emperor wanted to fight to the death with the Void Devouring Flame, then the Void Devouring Flame would inevitably trigger its own contingency plan, causing heavy losses to the Soul Clan.

Soul Emperor was well aware of Void Devouring Flame's cunning, so he never considered engaging in a fight to the death before breaking through to the Dou Di realm.

As for Hun Xuzi devouring the Void Devouring Flame? If the Void Devouring Flame were really that easy to devour, Hun Tiandi would have devoured it himself long ago, and at that time Hun Tiandi would have been invincible in the Dou Qi Continent.

The previous Void Devouring Flame forcibly separated the soul from the fire seed, disguising the soul as a mass of soul essence, which was then devoured by Soul Void Child here.

Then, the soul of Void Devouring Flame merged with the sub-fire within Soul Void's body, devouring Soul Void's soul and taking over Soul Void's body.

Rather than saying that Void Devouring Flame possessed Soul Void Child, it would be more accurate to say that he refined Soul Void Child into an avatar.

The Soul Emperor smiled faintly and said, "Now that we have Soul Void Child's body, plus your original form, we can probably refine a ninth-grade golden pill."

"Void, next we must do our best to enhance the strength of the Soul Clan's experts in preparation for the upcoming decisive battle with other ancient families."

The Void Devouring Flame chuckled strangely, "Leave it to me, I'll refine a ninth-grade golden pill!"

The Soul Emperor nodded and vanished in a flash. His expression remained as calm as before, revealing a gentle smile that made it impossible to discern his inner thoughts.

No one knows why the Soul Emperor did this. In fact, as of now, apart from the Soul Emperor and the Void Devouring Flame, only the deceased Soul Void Child might know the reason behind this.

However, in the instant before disappearing, a faint, eerie look flashed in the eyes of the Soul Emperor.

Because of the Void Devouring Flame, the Soul Clan has been able to continue to this day, which is of great importance to the entire Soul Clan.

Many elders even consider Void Devouring Flame to be the most important person in the Soul Clan, because as long as he exists, the Soul Clan will not decline due to bloodline issues.

To some extent, in the hearts of some clansmen, even the Soul Emperor might not be as important as the Void Devouring Flame!

The Soul Emperor was naturally aware of this situation, but he never said anything about it, because he understood that the Soul Clan in the past did indeed need to rely on the Void Devourer.

However, this reliance may gradually disappear in the future, and at that time, the Void Devouring Flame will no longer have any value to be used.

The Soul Emperor is a very selfish person, extremely self-centered and arrogant, just like when he destroyed the Xiao Clan.

The latest novel is first published here!

In his view, if one cannot break through to the Dou Di level, then the Dou Di bloodline will eventually be completely exhausted, and there are not many Dou Di families left on the Dou Qi Continent.

A thousand years ago, by destroying the Xiao Clan, the Soul Clan continued its thousand-year-old Dou Di bloodline. Although there are still many remnants of bloodline power, the Soul Emperor does not want to wait any longer.

Even a thousand years ago, the Soul Emperor made such a decision. However, due to Lei Ying and Yan Jin, as well as Gu Yuan's covetousness, he was unable to collect all the fragments of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.

The current Soul Emperor has chosen to abandon the Void Devouring Flame, or rather, the moment the Void Devouring Flame took over Soul Void Child's body and refined a ninth-grade golden pill was the moment he would take action against the Void Devouring Flame.

On that day, Gu Yuan will lend a hand!

As enemies who have been at odds for a thousand years, Soul Emperor and Gu Yuan understand each other well. He chose to give Gu Yuan the opportunity to break through to the Dou Di realm, so Gu Yuan would definitely accept it.

As a bargaining chip, the Soul Emperor staked the entire Soul Clan on the deal, handing the initiative over to Gu Yuan.

In a way, the current Soul Emperor is like Xiao Xuan a thousand years ago, having become a complete gambler, and their backup plan is actually Gu Yuan...

As far as the Soul Emperor is concerned, as long as he exists, the Soul Clan will not disappear. If he breaks through to the Dou Di realm, then the Soul Clan will be the only Dou Di family on the Dou Qi Continent!

A thousand years ago, the Soul Emperor and Xiao Xuan fought. Although the battle did not last long, the Soul Emperor knew very well that Xiao Xuan had taken that step, but Xiao Xuan still failed in the end.

The Soul Emperor also gained some insights during that battle. He no longer hoped to break through to the Dou Di realm without complete Origin Qi; taking even half a step would be enough! (End of Chapter)
