Chapter 291: Xiao Tian Takes Action
In the sky, Hun Xuzi's expression was also serious. Meanwhile, the Devouring Void Flame, with eyes like black holes, stared at the opposing force and let out a mysterious sigh, "What a pity, once a supreme powerhouse, now merely a remnant soul..."
Time is merciless. Even a Dou Emperor cannot resist the passage of time and will eventually fall.
"Please protect us, Ancestor!" Yao Dan also knelt down, speaking respectfully.
"The Yao Clan... has it really declined to this extent?" the Yao Emperor murmured softly, his words full of lament.
Hearing his words, the Yao Clan members looked ashamed.
"So, it is the Devouring Void Flame that seeks to destroy our Yao Clan..." The Yao Emperor slowly raised his head, looking at the black flames covering the sky. He waved his sleeve, causing the formation to shine brightly, scattering the black flames attached to it.
"A mere remnant soul of a Dou Emperor. Absorbing you might equal the essence of millions of souls and could potentially elevate my soul to the Emperor level!" The Devouring Void Flame's eyes flashed with greed. He then pointed his rune-covered finger downward.
"Boom!"
Instantly, the ground below shook, and black flames condensed into a massive black finger that almost covered half the mountain range. The finger, covered in black runes and burning with eerie black flames, caused the surrounding space to collapse instantly.
"Too... too powerful..." Many people turned pale at the sight of this attack.
As the attack fell, the Yao Emperor lightly raised his hand, and a huge medicine cauldron appeared out of thin air over the formation. The cauldron, covered in strange patterns and exuding an ancient aura, seemed almost tangible.
"Boom!"
The giant finger struck the giant cauldron, resulting in a deafening explosion. Many weaker individuals spat blood, and some even exploded on the spot. Moments later, the giant finger dissipated, and the cauldron, now more illusory, showed signs of great energy depletion.
"A mere remnant soul, how many times can you withstand my attacks?" The Devouring Void Flame smiled coldly and continued his onslaught.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With each successive earth-shaking sound, the cauldron started to crack under the relentless assault.
"All Yao Clan members, pour all your Dou Qi into the formation!" Seeing this, Yao Dan's expression changed dramatically, and he shouted loudly. Beams of light shot into the formation, repairing and solidifying the cauldron.
"You have the power of the Yao Clan, and so do I!" The Devouring Void Flame waved his hand expressionlessly, causing the entire Yao Realm to tremble. Numerous Yao Clan descendants were lifted into the air, intending to merge with the black flames in the sky.
"Better not to kill the innocent!" Xiao Tian chuckled, activating the power of the Spatial Ancestral Talisman. The Yao Clan descendants were safely returned to the ground. This scene made the Yao Clan members grateful, while the Devouring Void Flame's face turned dark as he questioned, "Xiao Tian, do you wish to fight me?"
"Devouring Void Flame, do you think I fear you?" Xiao Tian responded confidently, having no intention of lowering himself even though he wanted to use the Devouring Void Flame to achieve his goals.
"Hmph!" The Devouring Void Flame snorted coldly and continued fighting the Yao Emperor's remnant soul. He needed to deal with the remnant soul, not add another enemy.
"Boom!"
The Devouring Void Flame extended his rune-covered hand, causing the black flames that shrouded the sky to churn violently, forming a gigantic black vortex behind him, madly devouring the energy of heaven and earth. Under this devouring force, the ground began to crack, with thousand-foot-long fissures appearing everywhere.
"Kill!"
In this situation, the Yao Emperor's remnant soul gathered the power of the entire Yao Clan, colliding with the Devouring Void Flame while wielding the medicine cauldron. Their battle was so fierce that the Yao Realm began to collapse. Although the collapse was just beginning and could still be repaired, continuing the battle would eventually lead to the destruction of this small world.
Seeing this, Yao Dan hurriedly spoke, "Xiao Tian, please help the Yao Clan. If you help us through this crisis, our clan is willing to offer ten Nine-Tier Pills, as well as the Ninth-ranked Nine Nether Wind Flame and the Thirteenth-ranked Turtle Spirit Earth Flame."
Elder Shennong also spoke, "Please help the Yao Clan. I am willing to give you the Life Spirit Flame!"
He had always been friendly with Elder Wanhuo and disliked the Soul Clan, so naturally, he did not want the Yao Clan to be destroyed.
Hearing this, Xiao Tian smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I will help the Yao Emperor!"
The offer of three high-ranking Heavenly Flames and ten Nine-Tier Pills was indeed a good deal.
Upon hearing Xiao Tian's response, Hun Xuzi's face turned grim. He quickly took out a scroll emitting black flames from his storage ring and tore it open. Instantly, black flames surged, forming a flame passage from which several figures emerged. These figures exuded vast and chilling auras. Xiao Tian sensed two Seven-Star Dou Saints, two Six-Star Dou Saints, and three Five-Star Dou Saints among them. At this moment, Hun Xuzi also fully revealed his aura, also a Seven-Star Dou Saint.
The Soul Clan's strength was truly formidable.
Seeing the two leading elders, Yao Dan's face became serious, "Hun Jing, Hun Yan, I didn't expect the Soul Clan to send two of the Four Demon Saints. The Soul Clan indeed values our Yao Clan!"
Hun Yan smiled faintly, "Yao Dan, a wise man submits to circumstances. Your Yao Clan should surrender!"
"Hahaha!" Yao Dan laughed loudly, "Today, you won't be able to destroy our Yao Clan!"
He then looked at Xiao Tian and said, "Xiao Tian, please take action!"
"Alright!" Xiao Tian nodded. He stretched out his hand, and thunderclouds rolled across the sky. A massive thunder dragon roared out, transforming into a lightning bow in his hand.
Xiao Tian held the lightning bow and slowly drew it to a full moon shape. As the bowstring was pulled to its limit, deep black rays gathered, forming a black arrow. The arrow's tip, swirling with black light and forming tiny black vortexes, caused the space around it to begin collapsing even before it was released.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, the black arrow shot out, piercing through the void and striking Hun Yan before he could react.
"Bang!"
The next moment, Hun Yan exploded into a blood mist without even having time to scream, his soul completely annihilated.
