Chapter 1211: Six Clans United
Be careful, this is a method of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire; it can use human emotions as a guide, fire arises from the heart, burning life from inside out. Those who don't want to die, don't let your thoughts run wild for me!
As the panic spread, Gu Nanhai finally stood up and shouted loudly.
After all, after what happened before, even though they had several four-star Dou Sheng on their side, he had little confidence in dealing with that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
Therefore, he quickly stood up to remind the people around him, hoping to preserve more of their combat strength on their side.
The remaining people, hearing that shout, had no time to think of anything else; they hurriedly and subconsciously suppressed the thoughts and emotions in their hearts, trying as much as possible to remain calm.
And as those people began to suppress the thoughts and emotions in their hearts, that constant self-explosion gradually weakened considerably.
However, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, seeing this situation, merely gave a cold glance at the remaining people in the flame prison, then said in an icy voice: 'You think just controlling your emotions is enough? Trash below Dou Sheng, you don't even qualify to become my fire slave.'
As soon as the words fell, a flash of milky-white light flickered in his eyes, and he coldly said: 'Trash below Dou Sheng, all of you, explode for me!'
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
At the instant the last syllable fell from the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's mouth, the remaining crowd with Lin Feng instantly fell into chaos.
In the next moment, over eighty percent of the people let out a miserable scream and then their bodies exploded in an extremely bizarre manner.
It was as if a large amount of explosives had been planted inside their bodies all along.
Only at this moment did they realize how foolish their decision to ignore Lin Feng's advice and enter this demonic fire space was.
They originally thought that with their Dou Zun or Half-Saint strength, even if they couldn't defeat the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, they would still have enough to protect themselves, and Lin Feng said that just to scare them off, thereby reducing his competitors.
But who would have expected that a moment of arrogance would bring about such a great disaster.
"This guy, what a terrifying method."
Looking at how, in the blink of an eye, the surroundings were suddenly less than half their number, Xiao Yan, whose strength was only one-star Dou Sheng, instantly felt a chill in his heels.
Here, aside from a few Half-Saints protected by Dou Sheng powerhouses, the rest basically died under the bizarre means of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan secretly rejoiced; fortunately, he had been lucky earlier and snatched the Bodhi Heart, which allowed him to successfully advance to Dou Sheng.
Otherwise, under that white-robed man's words, someone with Dou Zun or Half-Saint strength would likely end up dead on the spot, without a whole corpse.
"Hehe, the miscellaneous fish have been cleared; you are the ones who now have the qualifications to become my fire slaves."
Looking at the now much-thinned crowd, a smile gradually appeared on the handsome face of the white-robed man.
And while he was speaking, he waved his hand, and the magma sea below began to boil.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
In the next moment, accompanied by the sound of magma bursting, ten magma pillars shot up violently from below.
When they reached several hundred meters in the sky, those magma pillars immediately burst open, and then ten figures clad in milky-white fire armor appeared around the white-robed man amidst the falling magma.
"These people... they are actually Dou Sheng powerhouses?!"
Gazing at the ten figures with empty eyes emerging from the magma, the remaining people involuntarily drew a cold breath, their faces clearly showing shock.
Because these ten figures are actually fire slaves, and what is most shocking is that every one of them has reached the Dou Sheng level.
Moreover, the two strongest among these fire slaves have even reached the late stage of three-star Dou Sheng!
"Damn, I never expected the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire to still control so many Dou Sheng powerhouses in this time."
Faced with the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's grand gesture of summoning ten Dou Sheng fire slaves in one breath, not only those people earlier, but even the members of the Six Great Ancient Clans furrowed their brows quickly, their faces solemn as they gazed at this scene.
After all, although these Dou Sheng fire slaves might not pose a great threat to Lin Feng and the two of them, nor to the members of the Six Great Ancient Clans.
but for the others, it is undoubtedly a huge challenge.
"Hehe, every time I tear open the seal, many ignorant people who think their strength is heaven‑rushing rush in, but unfortunately, they all end up becoming my most obedient fire slaves."
The white‑robed man smiled at the crowd, then softly said: 'I have accumulated this strength for so long; this time I not only want to add to my collection, but I also control this demonic fire space, enough to tear open the space and leave, without fearing those outsiders fixing their gaze on me.'
As he spoke, his expression gradually turned gloomy.
Isn't the reason he expends effort every thousand years to tear open the seal precisely to lure those outside experts in, then turn them into fire slaves to increase his own strength?
So that when he goes out later, he won't end up like the previous Pure Lotus Demon Saint, being captured and refined by it.
And now, if he can control these people before him, he will basically be able to protect himself.
"Huff, one nearly six-star Dou Sheng, ten Dou Sheng ranging from one-star to three-star — what a troublesome lineup."
The Hall Master of the Soul Hall's gaze fixed tightly on the eleven figures in the distance; such a lineup, even their Soul Hall couldn't produce!
Thinking of this, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall turned his gaze toward the other major families and said in a deep voice: 'Everyone, regardless of our past grudges, this is a matter of life and death for us; if we want to survive, we can only crush the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. Our strength is clearly insufficient, so we must set aside past grievances and work together to drive it back to its original form.'
As he spoke, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall's gaze first swept over Gu Nanhai and the other major families.
After all, those other major families are the strongest group here aside from their Soul Clan.
If they are unwilling to join forces, then things will become much more troublesome.
Upon hearing the Hall Master of the Soul Hall's words, the other strong individuals also had their eyes flicker, obviously entertaining that idea.
After all, everyone knows that facing a five‑star peak Dou Sheng together with ten fire slaves of one‑to‑three‑star late‑stage Dou Sheng level, relying on just one side's strength would surely lead to certain death.
Thinking of this, the Thunder Clan and Stone Clan, who were already allies of the Soul Clan, hesitated not at all and cupped their hands, saying: 'We, the undersigned, are willing to follow the hall master's lead.'
"We are also willing to obey everything the hall master says."
With those two major clans taking the lead, many non‑bloodline forces also hurriedly cupped their hands in agreement.
Seeing that more than half of the remaining people agreed with his proposal, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall's mouth corners slightly rose, showing a hint of a smile.
Immediately afterward, he turned to Lin Feng and Yun Yun and said: 'Both of you, what do you think? Are you willing to join forces with me to resist the enemy?'
After all, only about twenty or so people remain here, and Lin Feng and Yun Yun, these two three‑star Dou Sheng, are also extremely important combat power, so naturally we need to win them over.
Moreover, Lin Feng's soul realm is still the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm; combined, it is enough to fight a four‑star Dou Sheng.
"No problem. Although I myself find it hard to deal with the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, my wife and I can also help you hold back the two strongest fire slaves, so you need not worry about the safety of your clans' younger generations."
Seeing Hun Mie Sheng look over, Lin Feng also didn't stand on ceremony, directly agreed, and even voluntarily offered to take on the strongest three‑star Dou Sheng among the fire slaves.
"Okay."
Upon hearing that, Hun Mie Sheng pondered a bit and also did not forcibly drag Lin Feng to fight the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
After all, in his mind, although Lin Feng's fused alien fire is formidable, compared to the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire it is still inferior by who knows how many times.
And one of its most proficient abilities, the strange fire, is restrained; even when going to deal with the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, it is difficult to exert its due combat power.
Of course, in fact it is indeed as the Hall Master of the Soul Hall thought: the strange fire that Lin Feng possesses is far inferior to that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, by a great deal.
As soon as they entered the strange fire space, the usually talkative and gluttonous Xiao Ling instantly became extremely quiet, not daring to utter a word.
Even seeing so many delicious strange fires before her, she absolutely would not speak.
Thus it can be seen that this girl was also frightened out of her wits by the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
However, although Lin Feng agreed readily, upon hearing the Hall Master of the Soul Hall mention cooperation, Gu Nanhai, Gu Xun'er, and Xiao Yan immediately fell into contemplation.
After all, they have always been at odds with the Soul Clan, and this time entering the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, they are also competitors.
Therefore, with all these reasons piling up, they naturally are extremely opposed to joining forces with the Soul Clan.
Meanwhile, the remaining few people, seeing the ancient clan members silent, also exchanged glances, daring not to speak out of turn; after all, these people are basically allies or subordinates of the ancient clan.
If the elder brother doesn't speak, how dare they talk nonsense?
Otherwise, they might not only die here, but when the ancient clan people go out, their own families and sects outside will suffer even greater calamity.
Seeing Gu Nanhai silent at this moment, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall was also not surprised.
After all, they had already witnessed the power of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire before; moreover, this place is not just the two of them as before, the situation is more chaotic, and additionally Gu Nanhai's earlier injury was worse than his, so the hesitation of the ancient clan people was also within his expectation.
However, seeing that the other party hesitated to make a decision, he lightly said: 'Gu Nanhai, take your time to consider; of course, if you are confident you can handle the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire on your own, I can guarantee I will not interfere.'
Meanwhile, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire in the distance, upon seeing this scene, merely curled its mouth into a cat-playing-with-mouse smile, paying no heed to whether those humans united or not.
Because with his current true strength, the opponent is not enough to pose a threat to him.
'Elder Gu Nanhai, although the Soul Hall is our enemy, what it says also makes some sense; the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire seems unwilling to let us leave easily. Moreover, our juniors are all inside here; if we act alone, lacking strength, any mishap would be a major problem.'
Seeing Gu Nanhai still silent, the Yan clan's Huo Yao hesitated a moment, then leaned close to his ear to advise.
After all, the current situation must be this way.
Otherwise, the only promising junior of our family today would likely suffer losses here.
Upon seeing the Yan clan nod in agreement, the Medicine clan's Yao Wan'gu, after pondering a while, also nodded and said: 'What Huo Yao said is correct, Elder Gu Nanhai; this time our clan's Yao Tian and Yao Ling, your clan's Xun'er, and the Yan clan's Huo Xuan are all locked up here. If anything happens to them, we cannot bear that responsibility!'
"This"
Hearing the words of the two before him, Gu Nanhai instantly had nothing to say.
Because what they said were also solid facts.
Thinking of this, Gu Nanhai could only nod, then said in a deep voice: 'Alright, Hun Mie Sheng, then we will join forces once more and drive this Pure Lotus Demonic Fire back to its original form!'
Seeing Gu Nanhai finally agree, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall immediately revealed a strange faint smile, then said: 'Old Gu Nanhai, you indeed have guts; since that's the case, let us assign combat tasks: friends with strength reaching four-star Dou Saint will join me in attacking that Pure Lotus Demonic Fire. Although it is a five-star peak Dou Saint, we are not pushovers; united, even if it is five-star peak, it can only return in resentment. As for you, Lin Feng, you will lead the others to resolve those ten Dou Saint Fire Slaves.'
"Hehe, everyone, you can rest assured dealing with the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire; the other Fire Slaves will be left to us."
Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately clasped his hands slightly and then smiled in acceptance.
And after he finished speaking, he immediately turned to Xiao Yan, Gu Xun'er, and the others, saying: 'The two late three-star Dou Saint Fire Slaves will be handled by us; the mid three-star one will be dealt with by the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall together with Hun Feng, a two-star Dou Saint of non-ancient clan; as for the two early three-star Dou Saint Fire Slaves, they will be handled by that two-star late Dou Saint of the Soul Clan and Gu Xun'er; you are all children of major families, I think overcoming a rank to deal with an unconscious Fire Slave should pose no problem.'
While speaking, Lin Feng also swept his gaze over Xiao Yan and Gu Xun'er, finally landing on a non-bloodline Dou Saint with two-star strength.
"Alright, no problem."
Upon hearing this, the Vice Hall Master of the Soul Hall, Hun Feng, and the others all lightly nodded, agreeing to Lin Feng's allocation.
This also included Gu Xun'er.
Because Lin Feng's allocation was indeed quite fair; even she, who bears a grudge against him, was not assigned a difficult strong opponent, and they could find no fault.
Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately turned his gaze to the remaining people and continued: 'As for the two late two-star Dou Saint Fire Slaves, they will be handled jointly by those four one- or two-star non-bloodline Dou Saints; uh, the early two-star Fire Slave will be left to you, Xiao Yan, for your soul power is strong, you can split a two-star Dou Saint-level clone, and with your strange fire, if you can't win, you would be unworthy of your own configuration.'
"As for the rest, Yao Tian, a one-star Dou Saint, will single-handedly handle a late one-star Fire Slave; the remaining same-level Fire Slave, I think you youngsters are already enough to easily resolve, so let's go together and settle it quickly."
At the end of his words, Lin Feng's gaze also turned to the junior half-saint Yao Ling, the senior half-saint Huo Xuan, and the other half-saint young juniors of several major families.
Upon hearing this, those people all clasped their fists and said: 'Rest assured, even if we cannot defeat them, we will certainly not let those Fire Slaves leave easily.'
As for Xiao Yan, after his eyes flickered a few times and seeing it hard to refuse, he could only remain silent, indicating no objection.
After all, if Lin Feng were not fighting above his rank, he could speak up to refuse.
But now the opponent he faces is the strongest among the Fire Slaves, a late three-star Dou Saint, so he cannot say much.
Even Gu Xun'er, who always speaks up to oppose Lin Feng's decisions right or wrong, now finds it hard to add more; after her lips moved a few times, she still did not voice opposition.
After all, everyone else now has their own opponents; even those non-bloodline people are cooperating to fight above their rank, she cannot let her brother Xiao Yan swap opponents with Yao Ling and them.
In that case, Yao Wan'gu would probably be the first to stand up and oppose.
Lin Feng, seeing that these people had no objections, also lightly nodded and turned his gaze toward the opposite Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
Immediately after, he shifted his gaze, quickly sweeping over the crowd; the powerful present whose apparent strength reached four-star Dou Saint were precisely the people of the six major families.
However, these people basically rely on their bloodlines to briefly erupt with greater combat power.
Therefore, in dealing with the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, they can at least cause it to expend a wave.
"Whoosh!"
Just as Lin Feng was mulling his plans, the Hall Master of the Soul Hall first stepped into the void, his form exploding forward, instantly appearing within a hundred zhang of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Seeing this, the people of the remaining five major families all simultaneously employed their body techniques, forming a ring that encircled the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire.
"Ha!"
After the six four-star Dou Saints surrounded the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, they exchanged a glance and then almost simultaneously erupted their auras.
"Boom!"
The six four-star Dou Saints joining forces, just that momentum alone already made the sky above this lava dim and lose color; such power truly deserves the four words 'astonishing and shocking'.
Seeing this scene in the sky, the others also turned grave, exchanged a glance, and then unanimously retreated quickly.
After all, in the face of such an earth-shaking battle, they could not intervene at all.
As for Lin Feng, since he currently does not want to stand out, he naturally is no exception, likewise hastily retreating to the side of the crowd.
Of course, while retreating, they also tacitly followed Lin Feng's earlier allocation, swiftly forming teams of various sizes, cautiously eyeing those ten Fire Slaves.
After all, these ten Fire Slaves are not to be underestimated!
As the crowd hastily retreated behind them, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire standing atop the magma pillar, seeing the six four-star Battle Saints surrounding him, also gave a faint smile. His handsome face slowly revealed a bewitching smile.
"This scene, I haven't seen it for a thousand years; it really makes me nostalgic."
As he spoke, his face showed no panic despite being surrounded by six four-star Battle Saint powerhouses; instead, his tone was filled with the intense joy of seeing prey.
"Fire Demon Halberd!"
As his words fell, the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire immediately stretched out his palm toward the boundless magma sea below, lightly clenched, his lips moving up and down as he shouted loudly.
As his words rang out, the magma sea below surged violently.
Immediately, a huge flame halberd, pure white throughout, shot out violently from within, and in a flash appeared in the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's palm.
"I have been sealed here for thousands of years; today I am about to break free—whoever dares to block me will die!"
As the last syllable left the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire's mouth, he suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth, and in an instant, a colossal demonic fire wave hundreds of zhang tall erupted forth.
At that terrifying temperature, the faces of the Hall Master of the Soul Hall and the other five also couldn't help but change.
After all, the flame unleashed at full power by the five-star peak Battle Saint Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is something even they dare not underestimate. (End of chapter)
