Chapter 1203

"Husband, I don't dare to probe those strong ones lightly, but that man called Huo Xuan seems to have a powerful exotic fire on him; should we—"

Just as Xiao Yan grew angry at the Yao Clan's attitude, Yun Yun, far away, turned her head, her beautiful eyes looking at her own man, and sent a telepathic message.

Hearing that, Lin Feng immediately shook his head and replied in the same manner: "Do not act rashly; the strong ones here are more than the ones you saw. Above us there are several even more formidable strong ones, and among them are two seventh‑star Dou Saint peak‑level strong ones."

As he spoke, Lin Feng's gaze fell heavily on the seemingly empty night sky, his expression showing a hint of helplessness.

Not to mention his strength has already been suppressed to a third‑star Dou Saint, and even his soul only displays the power it had during the original Void War; even at his prime, he could not withstand a barrage from two seventh‑star peak Dou Saints and a group of five‑ and six‑star Dou Saints.

And if these strong ones were not watching here, he might actually have acted to cause trouble inside the Demonic Fire Space.

But now, if any elder or junior of the various clans bearing exotic fire gets into trouble there, the biggest suspects would be him and Xiao Yan.

And among himself and Xiao Yan, he is the most suspect.

Therefore, he naturally would not do such a foolish thing.

After all, he still has no certainty of defeating the six great ancient races united.

Let alone the Soul and Ancient clans, even the Yan and Lei great families, if they truly fought him to the death, he couldn't handle them.

As for leaving all those people inside the Demonic Fire Space, we won't discuss whether it's possible; if he dared to do so, he'd likely create the Demonic Fire Space in the morning and be captured by the six great ancient races together by the afternoon.

After all, among those who can cultivate to such a level, few have an IQ below average.

So many entered the Demonic Fire Space, yet only he and Yun'er emerged; regardless of whether he is the murderer, the six great imperial families would first seize him and then devise all sorts of tortures and interrogations for details.

And by then, whether Lin Feng is the murderer or not, he is definitely doomed.

After all, the six great families have lost so many elders and young talents, especially Gu Xun'er of the Ancient clan, Huo Xuan of the Yan clan, Yao Tian and Yao Ling of the Yao clan; none of these is not a treasured prodigy of their respective families.

Once trouble arises, the fury of those families would be unimaginable!

As for the person bearing the Wu Nie Tun Yan sub‑fire, if his guess is correct, it should be Hun Feng, another young‑generation Soul Clan divine‑grade bloodline holder besides Hun Yu.

If this person gets into trouble inside the Demonic Fire Space and only he and Yun'er emerge, it is likely that strong ones will also be dispatched to deal with him.

In his memory, this Hun Feng seems to be a junior of a high‑ranking Soul Clan elder, also very troublesome.

"But, Yun'er, this Demonic Fire Space is fraught with danger, especially the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, which excels at manipulating emotions and creating powerful illusion realms; even some five‑star, or even six‑star Dou Saint strong ones could fall into it. After we enter, we might be randomly teleported to different places, so you must be extremely careful!"

Realizing that the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire has already taken control of the Demonic Fire Space and can also wield the Saint of the Pure Lotus's famed ultimate technique, Lin Feng immediately sent a telepathic warning.

At the same time as the warning, Lin Feng flipped his palm, a brass‑colored stream of light flowing from his shoulder down his forearm, and the palm suddenly made a 'Bang' sound, producing a brass‑colored flame about the size of a fist.

Immediately, Lin Feng flicked his finger, propelling the flame swiftly into Yun'er's body.

Simultaneously, he transmitted an explanation: "My exotic fire once fused the Falling Heart Flame and the Red Lotus Inferno, and these two exotic fires each possess abilities to suppress souls, corrupt souls, and create illusion realms. They can help break free from the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's emotional control and its illusion, so keep this with you, just in case."

"Hmm, you be careful as well."

Hearing that, Yun Yun sensed the brass‑colored flame inside her and lightly tapped her chin.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she immediately asked in confusion: "Since the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is so formidable, why don't the great families send even stronger warriors together, to prevent those three‑ or four‑star Dou Saint elders or young talents from encountering accidents?"

"Hehe, that's just a junior; you've talked enough over there, haven't you!"

Yet before Lin Feng could finish, near the crack of the Demonic Fire Space, a cold shout rang out like a heavy bomb, exploding suddenly beside everyone's ears.

Boom!

At the same time, as the Hall Master of the Soul Hall extended his palm, two black long dragons formed from swirling black smoke spiraled in the air, wildly swooping toward the distant, black‑massive crowd.

Before the Dou Zun and half‑Saint cultivators could react, the dragons had already surged into the crowd, arriving in front of Lin Feng and Yun'er!

"Hehe, I wasn't watching you all chatting happily, so I didn't want to disturb your refined mood."

When the black dragons swooped wildly before him, Lin Feng's eyes opened slightly, and the two dragons then collapsed without warning.

Simultaneously, a red and a blue stream of light darted out from a cluster of Dou Zun, then settled in the sky not far from the six great families.

"Lin Feng?!" As Xiao Yan, Gu Xun'er, and the surrounding ancient‑race people saw the newcomer's true appearance, their expressions tightened and their gazes sharpened toward him.

Immediately, the four factions—Ancient, Yan, Yao, and Stone Clan—glared with murderous intent and shouted loudly: "Lin Feng, you killed so many of our elders earlier, yet you still dare to appear!"

"Hehe, what's that, is it that only you ancient races are allowed to kill me, and I'm not permitted to fight back?"

Hearing that, Lin Feng let out a cold laugh, then his eyes widened slightly, and a vast pressure unique to a third‑star Dou Saint‑level strong one spread unreservedly outward!

"I see you ancient races have become arrogant on the Dou Qi Continent, truly thinking Lin Feng is a softie among the Five Families and Seven Sects, letting you beggar‑like bloodlines that survive on ancestral gifts bully me without consequence?!"

At the same time, a deafening roar burst from Lin Feng's mouth, shaking most of the crowd as if struck by a heavy blow, causing their eyes to see stars and the world before them to dim.

Seeing this, Yun Yun also released her own third‑star peak Dou Saint aura without reservation, suddenly pressing toward the people of the five great ancient races surrounding, except those from the Soul Hall.

As the two consecutively unleashed their formidable pressure, in an instant the terrifying force caused some of the slightly weaker successors of the five great families and distant Dou Zun and half‑Saint cultivators to involuntarily bend their bodies and then retreat a considerable distance backward.

Hmph!

The elders of those families, seeing this, immediately let out a cold snort, then waved their palms lightly, canceling the pressure emitted by Lin Feng and the other.

At the same time, the hot‑tempered Yan clan elder Huo Yao, whose inner four‑star Dou Saint aura burst forth, roared angrily: "You sharp‑tongued brat, a tiger that doesn't show its power—do you really think we're sick cats? Since that's the case, today I'll give your elder a proper lesson!"

While speaking, his entire body's Dou Qi surged, as he tried to seize the opportunity to rush forward and capture Lin Feng.

"Hehe, you're a thousand‑year‑old old waste who's only just reached the later stage of a four‑star Dou Saint; what right do you have to discipline me? Keep nagging—believe it or not, I'll just casually snatch an Eight‑Desolation Flame right here outside, then let someone go back alone!"

Facing the fully unleashed Huo Yao, Lin Feng was not frightened; instead a cold smile curled his lips, and his gaze, thoughtful, turned toward the nearby Huo Xuan.

Now, although he still lacks the ability to proactively cause trouble in the Yan Realm, if anyone dares to pick a fight with him, he isn't afraid.

After all, he is no longer the little Dou Zun who once endured the ancient races' bullying.

"You little mongrel, you're courting death!"

Hearing that the former not only took advantage of him but also threatened him with Huo Xuan, Huo Yao's fury surged to the top, his raging voice shattering the space within dozens of yards, his eyes spitting fire as they stared at Lin Feng.

"Fight, fight—ideally we both get mortally wounded; that way I can find a chance inside the Demonic Fire Space to kill that bastard Lin Feng. And when I obtain the many exotic fires on that scoundrel's body and the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, the world will be so vast that few could contend with me!"

Seeing Lin Feng clash with the Yan clan, Xiao Yan glanced at Gu Xun'er, who had already advanced to the later stage of a second‑star Dou Saint, then eagerly looked at the Lin Feng and Huo Yao before him, his heart instantly delighted.

As long as the two start fighting, the more Lin Feng and Yun Yun get hurt, the more it benefits him!

"That Lin Feng really is a third‑star Dou Saint, but I didn't expect the woman beside him to be close to a fourth‑star Dou Saint—hehe, now this is interesting."

On the other side, Hun Feng, seeing the tense scene, let out a faint laugh that immediately emanated from beneath the wide hood of his black robe.

In all these years, this is the first time he has seen someone younger than himself whose Dou Qi strength surpasses his.

Truth be told, he is already over forty, making him a generation older than Lin Feng and the others, who are only in their early thirties.

However, thinking of how the clan chief, for the sake of the plan, had poured all the clan's top resources into boosting high-level Dou Saint combat power, he, as a god-tier bloodline, had never taken a single ninth-grade pill from childhood to adulthood; Hun Feng couldn't help but narrow his eyes, his fists clenching slightly.

But thinking that if the clan chief could successfully break through that realm, his own strength would then surge up, directly making up for the lack of top-tier cultivation resources he had missed out on all these years, his fists gradually relaxed.

Next, he raised his head, revealing eyes a shade darker than ordinary people's, looking at Lin Feng with interest and grinning: "What this person said is also not wrong; nowadays, the major ancient clans mostly just live off the meager Dou Emperor bloodline handed down by their ancestors, lacking ambition. The Dou Emperor clans, too, are due for a reshuffle."

At that very moment, the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall on the other side immediately sent a voice transmission to Hun Feng: "Young clan chief, this person not only advances extremely quickly, but also possesses extremely strong soul power; he even once fought alone against the ancient clan's old guy Gu Qiu Yuan without falling behind. His appearance—will it disrupt our plans?"

Hehe, no problem. Our Hall Master has not only broken through to the half-step five-star Dou Saint level, but his soul power even surpasses that of Lin Feng by a hair. If this person doesn't come looking for trouble with us, fine; but if he truly is clueless, then besides taking back the source fire of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire this time, we wouldn't mind also bringing back a soul entity at the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection level. Moreover, those of us who have come this time are far from being the only ones.

As the former's words fell, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall beside him nonchalantly waved a hand and sent a voice transmission to the vice hall masters on either side and to Hun Feng.

Hehe, this operation is basically under the Hall Master's lead; you can decide on these matters.

Upon hearing that, Hun Feng immediately gave a careless smile, then waved his hand, indicating he was fine with whatever.

As for the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall on the other side, he naturally would not object to his superior's words, also nodded and then fell silent.

Moreover, what his superior said was also correct; for this trip into the demonic fire space, those who have come are far from limited to just them.

Hehehe, after we finally deal with that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, you'll wish you hadn't.

Thinking of the arrangements made within the clan this time, the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth, smirking inwardly.

As soon as the words fell, he continued to quietly watch the good show unfolding before him. (End of chapter)
