461: Enemy attack

Little Fairy Doctor noticed the change in Lin Xiu's expression and asked with concern, "Is there something wrong with the Jade Slip?"

Lin Xiu said nothing, picked out the Jade Slip he had with Gu Yuan, and crushed it.

Crack!

A subtle energy contained within the Jade Slip dispersed, concealing itself in the Void Realm.

Lin Xiu's Soul Power followed, wanting to see if that wisp of energy could successfully connect with Gu Yuan.

When he had received the Jade Slip before, its light had been bright, not this dim state.

That wisp of energy traveled through the Void Realm at an extremely fast speed.

Just as Lin Xiu was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly realized that the wisp of energy hit a barrier and stopped directly.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a mass of black flame appeared out of thin air and swallowed the energy.

"Hoo hoo..."

His Soul Power returned to his body, and Lin Xiu panted heavily, tiny beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

"What happened?!"

Little Fairy Doctor's expression instantly became solemn.

Beside her, Yun Yun quickly picked up her daughter and beckoned to Lin Yinan, holding both him and Lin Wan in her arms.

Lin Xiu crushed all the Jade Slips in one go.

Without exception, none of them managed to transmit anything.

This space was cut off by a powerful force!

"The Soul Clan has arrived!"

Lin Xiu stood up, his figure gradually dissipating before Little Fairy Doctor and the others.

His voice had not yet completely faded into the air.

"Yun Yun, take the children to the ancient tree!"

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Yun Yun.

"Okay, you all be careful."

Yun Yun nodded, holding her daughter and taking Yi Nan's hand, leaving without looking back.

Rumble!

A sudden roar echoed between heaven and earth, as two giant flame wheels emerged from the Void Realm and the ground respectively.

"What's that sound?"

"It's the Heaven Refining Ancient Formation! Why did the Alliance Chief activate the Heaven Refining Ancient Formation?"

"Have enemies arrived?"

Figures with powerful Aura stepped into the Void Realm one after another. When they saw the giant fiery disk in the sky, their expressions froze, then solemnity appeared on their faces.

"Enemy attack!"

Little Fairy Doctor's sharp cry spread out.

In the Void Realm, after Lin Xiu activated the Heaven Refining Ancient Formation, his hand seals continued to change, and one grand Formation after another was activated.

The Cultivation Alliance, and even Canaan Academy, were immediately covered by energy shields, one after another.

"Who's here? The Soul Clan?"

Yao Tianhuo rushed out of his residence, flashed to Lin Xiu's side, and asked.

Hundreds of Elders, Su Qian, Old Demon Tianming, Yao Ming, and others all appeared.

Under the gaze of many eyes, Lin Xiu said in a deep voice, "The Soul Clan has already sealed off this space. Everyone return to their positions. For now, we can only hold the Formation until Gu Yuan and the others notice the anomaly."

"Sealed off space? How could there be no movement at all?"

Yao Tianhuo was dumbfounded.

Su Qian hesitated, "Yes, Lin Xiu, could it be that you misjudged?"

"Such a large area, and you have an Emperor Realm Soul. Even if the Soul Clan wanted to do this, it's impossible for there to be no movement at all."

Yao Ming looked at Lin Xiu.

However.

Before Lin Xiu could answer, a burst of laughter was heard first, echoing in everyone's ears.

"Lin Xiu, I didn't expect you to be so vigilant. My entire Soul Clan mobilized, and you almost discovered us."

In the distance, a figure suddenly flashed out of the Void Realm.

The opponent merely stood there, and an invisible pressure spread, causing the wind to stop and clouds to cease throughout the entire heaven and earth; the air seemed to solidify.

As Soul Emperor appeared, circles made of black flames emerged in the Void Realm behind him.

Those circles were initially only the size of a black dot, but they rotated and continuously grew larger, eventually transforming into hundred-zhang-wide black holes.

Figures continuously walked out of the black holes, instantly occupying the entire sky.

Tens of thousands of Soul Clan warriors appeared, and the visual impact of such a scene was no less than seeing a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers.

"I didn't expect the dignified Soul Emperor, a figure at the peak of the continent, to resort to such sneaky tactics."

Lin Xiu's expression was grave, his gaze cold.

It was clear that Soul Emperor and Void Swallowing Flame had joined forces, secretly swallowing the entire Black-Corner Region into Void Swallowing Flame's body.

What once happened to the Yao Clan was now playing out here with him.

"Lin Xiu, I've always had a question: did you know there was a Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave Abode here?"

Soul Emperor asked.

As soon as he spoke, the scene erupted in an uproar.

Not only were the Cultivation Alliance members shocked, but even those Soul Clan warriors were somewhat astonished.

For a moment.

Countless gazes converged on Lin Xiu, and after the points of heat gathered, they were even more intense than the temperature of the sun.

"Does the answer matter?"

Lin Xiu retorted.

Soul Emperor laughed loudly, "It really doesn't matter, because the key to opening it is in my hands! What if you know the whereabouts of the Immortal Cave?"

"Heh, don't celebrate too early. Opening the Immortal Cave is one thing, but whether you can get what's inside is another matter entirely."

Lin Xiu's expression returned to indifference, and he smiled lightly.

Soul Emperor said indifferently, "You want to scare me? With that grand Formation above your head? Or with these people from your Cultivation Alliance? I don't even need to act; you'll already be overwhelmed."

"He's clearly trying to stall for time. You go open the Immortal Cave, and I'll lead my people to kill them."

Void Swallowing Flame appeared, clearly having completely sealed off the space.

"Good, I'll leave it to you."

Soul Emperor agreed, took out the tuoshe ancient emperor jade, looked at the groove on it, and with a flash of his figure, arrived above Canaan Academy.

"Yellow Springs Transforming Heaven Palm!"

As soon as he appeared, a sharp cry immediately followed.

Turning his head, a giant dark yellow palm, a thousand zhang in size, appeared in the sky and descended towards him.

Soul Emperor's eyes showed disdain, letting the palm fall.

As the giant palm descended, countless black flames, like tadpoles, rushed out and blocked its path below, converging into a black hole.

After the giant palm was swallowed, Void Swallowing Flame emerged from within, a cold sneer in his eyes, "Lin Xiu, we haven't settled our last score yet."

Countless black flames rushed out from behind him, landing on those barriers.

Sizzle sizzle!

A cacophony of sounds arose, as if countless mouths were tearing and biting.

The energy displayed by the grand Formation rapidly became thin.

Lin Xiu formed hand seals, and the upper and lower fiery disks spun rapidly, continuously trembling, the immense energy brewing within them suddenly rushing out.

"Heaven Refining Ancient Formation, Refine!"

Two beams of light shot out separately, enveloping Void Swallowing Flame.

Two black holes flashed, blocking the inevitable path of the light beams.

Boom!

The energy collision erupted into tangible energy ripples, spreading in all directions.

After the Soul Clan army was touched by the energy, they fell like dumplings from the sky.

But this scene did not last too long. As the Soul Clan Elder blocked this energy, those Soul Clan warriors also began to act.

At the same time.

On the Cultivation Alliance side, everyone orderly moved to their positions and began to exert their strength.

The shaking grand Formation solidified again, and black lightning arcs erupted from its surface, darting out like venomous snakes.

Soul Clan soldiers touched by it exploded entirely.

A Soul Clan Elder struck the grand Formation with a palm, causing the barrier to shake violently, and those maintaining the Formation spat out large mouthfuls of blood.

A smug look appeared on his face, and just as he was about to press on, a red glow suddenly shot towards him.

That Elder was sent flying thousands of meters, and the space along the way, unable to withstand the force, shattered one after another.

"The Xiao Clan's blood debt, you shall repay it."

Xiao Chen appeared beside the red glow, reaching out to grasp the blood-colored giant axe in his hand, his clan tattoo on his forehead gleaming.

Not far away.

A nine-colored light pillar shot into the sky, evolving into a ten-thousand-zhang snake tail, sending a Soul Clan Elder flying.

On the other side.

A purple-gold light rose, and Zi Yan, clad in majestic armor and holding a dark golden long spear, exuded a magnificent Aura, blocking a Soul Clan Elder.

A little further away, large areas of gray mist suddenly rose from the ground. Those mists quickly covered the Soul Clan warriors and Elders.

The faces of the figures within quickly turned black, their sustained Dou Qi was corroded by the gray mist, and large chunks of flesh fell from their bodies.

In an instant, the Cultivation Alliance completely became a battlefield.

Soul Emperor, undisturbed, gazed at the ground, his eyes filled with anticipation, and with a single palm, he destroyed the academy buildings and the ground, fanatically exclaiming, "Come out, Ancient Emperor Cave Abode!"
