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

They couldn't help but be wary of Gu Yuan. All four of them were nine-star Dou Sheng, and their soul power was at the Great Perfection of the Heaven Realm. Each of them had broken through to the Emperor Realm.

Moreover, a thousand years had passed since Gu Yuan broke through to the late stage of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, unlike when they had just broken through. Even Long Xiao, who had originally thought that the Nine Profound Golden Thunder was a match for Gu Yuan, did not believe that he was a match for Gu Yuan.

With four nine-star Dou Sheng joining forces, Gu Yuan would be no match, but they couldn't capture him, and the Gu Clan also had many powerful individuals.

At the same time, they were also wary of the Soul Emperor and the Soul Clan, after all, the Soul Emperor had just called out Gu Yuan's name.

Long Yan and Xiao Jue stood together, ready to merge at any moment. With only the strength of a Seven-Star Dou Sheng, they could not withstand two moves from Gu Yuan and had to be careful.

At this moment, most of the Soul Devouring Life-Severing Arrays were erupting on the outermost edge of the Central Continent. The core of the Central Continent was not affected. In fact, some of the Soul Devouring Life-Severing Arrays were directly destroyed by forces with the strength of Dou Sheng.

"Let's fight the Soul Emperor together."

Gu Yuan smiled faintly, "I have waited for a thousand years, and finally I have seen through all the Soul Clan's trump cards."

"A thousand years ago, Xiao Xuan asked me to cooperate, but I refused. How could I possibly agree to cooperate with the Soul Emperor now?"

Gu Yuan's lips curled into a mocking smile, it was unclear whether he was mocking the Soul Emperor or himself.

"Xiao Xuan is brave but lacks strategy, and Hun Tiandi is arrogant and suspicious. These are their biggest flaws. Therefore, I know that Xiao Xuan will seek his own death, and Hun Tiandi will be betrayed by his subordinates, or he will betray them."

Gu Yuan sighed, "What I've always wanted is not to break through to the Dou Di realm, but simply to protect the ancient clan as a ruler who maintains the status quo."

"Since the end of the Dou Di era, only one Tuoshe Ancient Emperor has emerged. Apart from him, who else has broken through to the Dou Di level?"

Gu Yuan looked at the massive Soul Devouring Life-Severing Array in Zhongzhou and said, "The Soul Emperor's target has always been the Ancient Emperor's Cave. He wants to give me the fragments of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade so that I can protect him in refining the Void Devouring Flame."

"If the Soul Emperor refines the Void Devouring Flame, then I will no longer be his opponent, and he will inevitably suffer a backlash if he forcibly refines the Void Devouring Flame."

"This period of time was the last chance he gave me to obtain the fragments of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade from your two clans and then open the Ancient Emperor's Cave. However, obtaining the Emperor-grade embryonic pill does not necessarily mean that I can break through to the Dou Di realm."

"Although I don't know what trump card the Soul Emperor has to escape, let's kill him first."

Xiao Jue opened his mouth, then suddenly smiled with relief. Gu Yuan was truly kind! He only cared about self-preservation and had no ambition, but wasn't that good news?

"Go and deal with the Soul Emperor."

Xiao Jue said, "The other powerful members of the Soul Clan have also made their move. Leave it to me and Long Yan to deal with."

……

High in the distant sky, a sea of ​​blood raged, its thick, pungent stench permeating the heavens and earth. Within that sea of ​​blood, there was an abundance of energy.

In the center of that sea of ​​blood floated a blood lotus, upon which sat a figure with disheveled hair. Vast and boundless energy continuously converged from the sea of ​​blood and the heavens and earth, ultimately pouring into his body. Yet, facing this endless energy, the figure's body was like a bottomless pit; no matter how frantically the vast energy—enough to cause even a Dou Sheng powerhouse to explode—was poured in, there was no sign of it overflowing.

"Um?"

On the blood lotus, the figure with its eyes closed suddenly opened them as if sensing something. The eyes were filled with a sea of ​​blood, sending chills down one's spine.

"This fluctuation..."

The Soul Emperor frowned slightly. Just a moment ago, he felt a slight palpitation, but by the time he tried to sense it more closely, the feeling had already disappeared.

"Is it an illusion?" Soul Emperor muttered to himself. The great formation covered the entire Central Continent. If it weren't for the Soul Clan's efforts to maintain it, the formation would probably have broken long ago. Under such complete concentration, he couldn't spare too much attention to the subtle changes in the Central Continent.

The Soul Emperor chuckled softly, his blood-red eyes appearing incredibly cold. Then, the blood lotus spun, and his eyes slowly closed again as he began to frantically absorb the vast energy forcibly drawn from the Central Plains.

As the Soul Emperor turned around, a faint black light suddenly flashed across the sea of ​​blood, and a tiny black flame quietly extinguished itself.

This scene unfolded in less than half a breath, and with the vast energy hidden within the sea of ​​blood, even the Soul Emperor failed to detect it.

In the Soul Realm, four elders of the Soul Clan, a living dead of the same generation as the Domain Soul Heavenly Emperor, and four eight-star Dou Sheng powerhouses stared indifferently at a blood pool tens of thousands of feet in size on the ground below.

Around the pool of blood, a steady stream of people were being thrown in, their agonizing screams echoing throughout the world.

They have waited far too long, and for this, they are willing to sacrifice their fellow members of the Soul Clan to help the Soul Emperor. As long as they can erase the consciousness of the Void Devouring Flame, then the Soul Clan can completely control the Void Devouring Flame.

Regardless of whether Soul Emperor can break through to the Dou Di realm, at least Void Devouring Flame will forever remain under the control of the Soul Clan.

The latest novel is first published here!

As for why he needs to control the Void Devouring Flame and help him break through to the Emperor Realm soul, it's like fishing. Without bait, how can the fish take the bait?

Soul Void Child was the bait, and the Soul Palace's accumulated soul essence over thousands of years was also bait, all to lure Void Devouring Flame onto the hook.

……

"Hehehe, Soul Emperor!"

In a corner of Zhongzhou, a black figure revealed a sinister smile and sneered, "What a cunning scheme, willing to abandon everything just to devour my true form."

With the support of the four elders of the Soul Clan and the four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, the Soul Emperor launched this plan, and the Void Devouring Flame was powerless to resist.

Even though Void Devouring Flame left hidden traps on many Soul Clan powerhouses, such methods could not help him fight against Soul Emperor.

The Void Devouring Flame ranks second on the list of strange flames. This flame is born from nothingness, has no form to be found, and no shape to be grasped. From a certain perspective, the Void Devouring Flame can be considered a rather strange existence.

The Void Devouring Flame is known as something that devours the heavens and the earth, possessing the ability to devour all things. In the world, only a very few things can resist that devouring power, and everything devoured by the Void Devouring Flame will also be under its control.

Therefore, the Void Devouring Flame possesses far more trump cards than anyone could imagine. Even the Soul Emperor, who had broken through to the Dou Di realm, could not truly refine the Void Devouring Flame, let alone the current Soul Emperor. (End of Chapter)
