220: Chapter 214 Ancient Yuanlai Spirit Clan
When still a considerable distance away from the Spirit Realm, Void Swallowing Flame decisively stopped.
If he went any further, he might be discovered by Zhu Kun.
Once exposed, not only would the entire plan collapse, but he himself might also be left behind.
He stopped advancing and turned to hand the unconscious Gu Xun'er over to the black-clad man accompanying him.
"The rest depends on you. Whether your family can live a good life depends on your performance."
The black-clad man knelt on one knee, his tone incredibly firm: "Your subordinate obeys! I will definitely complete the mission perfectly and not fail Lord Void's instructions!"
Taking the unconscious Gu Xun'er, this black-clad man went alone, continuing to approach the outskirts of the Spirit Realm.
Meanwhile, Void Swallowing Flame retreated at full speed back to the Soul Realm.
The black-clad man carried Gu Xun'er toward the Spirit Realm, and when he felt it was close enough, he did not hesitate to detonate his own Dou Qi.
The Dou Qi within his body went completely berserk, and his whole person transformed into a massive energy core that exploded.
"Boom——!!"
A deafening roar resounded instantly!
A genuine Nine-Revolving Dou Venerate powerhouse completely self-destructed; the power was terrifyingly extreme. The violent energy shockwave instantly swept across the entire world, the ground's rock layers shattered completely, the Void Realm trembled violently, and rolling waves of air surged in all directions.
Under the extreme power of the Dou Venerate's self-destruction, Gu Xun'er's Physical Body and Soul were instantly crushed by the violent energy.
The power of a Dou Venerate's self-destruction is great, and it exploded very thoroughly, leaving no clues related to the Hun Clan at the scene.
Gu Xun'er was blown to smithereens, leaving nothing behind. After the energy rampaging across the sky dissipated, in the center of the devastated ruins, only a lone, pulsating Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame hovered quietly.
Now, Gu Xun'er could go keep Xiao Yan company.
The commotion from this self-destruction was not small, and it quickly attracted people from nearby.
"Look! That is an Exotic Fire!"
"This aura... it is the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame! There is absolutely no mistake!"
"How is that possible? Is this not the unique Legacy Exotic Fire of the Gu Clan? How could it appear here again?"
A person leading the team immediately shouted to stop everyone in a deep voice: "No one move this Exotic Fire! I will immediately report this to the clan's high-level officials and inform the Clan Chief!"
Things had reached this point; the Hun Clan's purpose this time was already very clear: to kill Gu Xun'er and frame the Spirit Clan!
Furthermore, this plan was foolproof. They did not kill Gu Xun'er immediately upon capturing her, but brought her here to kill her.
Even more brilliant was that the black-clad man who self-destructed was not even a member of the Hun Clan.
No matter how they investigated, others would not be able to find any connection between Gu Xun'er's death and the Hun Clan.
When the vassal tribes on the outskirts of the Spirit Realm reported the news, the Gu Clan was already in an uproar.
Gu Yuan was convening a meeting with the clan's high-level Elders to discuss recent matters.
Just at this moment, a hurried and panicked figure rushed into the main hall regardless of anything else, breaking all order.
The person who came was the deacon specially in charge of the Life Spirit Stone for the Gu Clan; he was pale, trembling all over, and his eyes were filled with terror.
He held a dark golden Life Spirit Stone in both hands and rushed to the front with a thud: "Clan Chief! It is bad! Something terrible has happened!"
"Young Miss Xun'er's Spirit Stone... has completely gone out!"
The core members of a Dou Di clan would all integrate their own essence blood and Soul aura into their exclusive Spirit Stone in advance.
If the Spirit Stone shines brightly, it represents that life is unharmed; if the light flickers weakly, it represents being seriously injured and on the verge of death; once it becomes completely dim and lightless, it represents that the Divine Soul has been destroyed and the person has completely perished!
Everyone's gaze fell uniformly upon that Spirit Stone.
The dark golden Spirit Stone, which had been bright and brilliant for years, was now completely gray, without a trace of light.
This meant that Gu Xun'er was already dead...
Gu Yuan's brain instantly went blank, his ears buzzed, and he felt as if he had been struck by a Nine Heavens thunderbolt.
His own daughter, a possessor of a God-tier Bloodline, had just gone out once, and was now gone just like that?
But why had he not received any signal?
Logically speaking, even if she were assassinated by an Eight Star Dou Sheng, relying on the means he had left for Gu Xun'er, it should have been impossible for her to not even be able to send out a signal!
In an instant, countless doubts and rage flooded his heart.
After the extreme grief, there was a bone-chilling, monstrous rage.
A terrifying Nine-Star Dou Sheng pressure erupted uncontrollably from within Gu Yuan's body, instantly sweeping through the entire Gu Clan main hall.
The tables, chairs, and jade pillars in the hall shattered one after another, the ground cracked with dense trenches, and the high-ranking Elders were all pressed so hard by this pressure that they found it difficult to breathe.
Gu Yuan's eyes were blood-red, his surrounding Dou Qi churned violently, and his entire body was filled with murderous intent.
He grabbed the dim Spirit Stone and clutched it tightly in his palm.
Without any extra words, the spatial power around him exploded, his figure instantly tore through the Void Realm, and carrying endless rage and murderous intent, he left the Ancient World directly.
...
According to the information from the Spirit Stone, Gu Xun'er died several thousand miles outside the Spirit Realm.
Gu Yuan tore through the Void Realm and arrived rapidly. As soon as he landed, he saw many Cultivators gathered at the scene—people from the Spirit Clan's vassal tribes—and several managers were investigating the scene.
In the center of the crowd, a golden flame hovered quietly in the air.
Gu Yuan was all too familiar with this Exotic Fire; it was their Gu Clan's Legacy Exotic Fire, the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame!
At this, the last shred of hope in Gu Yuan's heart was completely shattered.
"Xun'er!"
A low roar erupted from Gu Yuan's throat; his eyes instantly became bloodshot, and he completely lost himself in rage.
The pain of losing his daughter, coupled with monstrous rage, instantly consumed all his reason.
He raised his hand and unleashed a massive Dou Technique, heading straight to crush the people from the Spirit Clan's vassal tribes present.
Just as the Dou Technique was about to land, a domineering and powerful voice suddenly resounded throughout heaven and earth.
"Gu Yuan! You dare to run wild near my Spirit Clan's territory? Do you really think I dare not kill you?!"
Zhu Kun's figure appeared out of thin air; without dodging or avoiding, he raised his hand, condensed a massive Divine Dragon Claw, and struck it out with a boom.
The Dragon Claw, carrying massive Dou Qi, collided head-on with Gu Yuan's attack.
Boom!
The two Nine-Star Dou Sheng-level powers collided with a roar. The terrifying shockwave instantly swept across the entire land; the ground's rock layers shattered layer by layer, the Void Realm fractured, and none of the people from the nearby vassal tribes were spared.
Under this single blow, Gu Yuan's offensive was completely disintegrated, and he was forced far back by the massive backlash force.
Gu Yuan stabilized his figure, glaring fixedly at Zhu Kun, the rage in his chest completely exploding.
"Zhu Kun! Do not think that just because your Physical Body is strong, you can act recklessly! I have endured you for a long time!"
"Previously, you trespassed into my Ancient World, and today, your Spirit Clan has heartlessly killed my daughter! This hatred, I, Gu Yuan, will never share the same sky with you and the Spirit Clan!"
Next, Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun clashed again.
The two top Nine-Star Dou Sheng powerhouses fought face-to-face, the commotion terrifyingly extreme.
Heaven and earth trembled, winds and clouds reversed, the space for ten thousand miles around continued to collapse, and the violent Dou Qi aftershocks rampaged wantonly.
Ordinary Dou Sheng powerhouses would be instantly severely injured and crushed if they even approached; they dared not get close at all.
This great battle quickly alarmed all the high-level powerhouses in the Spirit Realm and the Void Ancient Dragon Island.
Ling Mie ordered the Elders with strength below Seven-Star Dou Sheng to retreat to the back to avoid being accidentally injured.
Only Ling Mie, Zi Yan, and four Seven-Star Dou Sheng powerhouses of the Void Ancient Dragon remained at the scene.
