295. Chapter 295: Ling Xi's Unease, Gu Yuan Appears!

In the Extreme West of the Central Plains, two figures streaked rapidly across the sky, tearing through the firmament.

At this moment, Gu Fei was dressed in a black-gold robe, his eagle-like eyes overlooking the land of the Central Plains. Following closely behind Gu Fei was Ling Xi, her snow-white hair fluttering in the wind, looking ethereal and refined.

Her slender figure glided behind Gu Fei like a fairy. Bringing this girl back this time, she must be impatient, he thought. Thinking of this, Gu Fei turned his head to look at Ling Xi following behind. Eh? Gu Fei frowned. Why did Ling Xi's usually calm face now show a trace of unease and anxiety, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, and a look of worry flashing in her beautiful eyes? Logically speaking, this girl should be happy.

"Ling Xi, what is wrong? Are you feeling homesick?"

Gu Fei noticed that his beloved disciple seemed to have something on her mind and asked softly.

Ling Xi seemed to have lost her focus for a moment and took a long time to react.

"Master, I don't know either. I just have a bad feeling!"

"I just feel..."

Ling Xi shook her head, her tone filled with a sense of confusion.

Hearing this, Gu Fei frowned. It was not just Ling Xi.

In fact, Gu Fei himself had a premonition of something bad.

It seemed he could not delay any longer. "If that is the case, let us increase our speed."

He said this after a moment of contemplation.

Having said that, golden light surged around Gu Fei, and his speed suddenly increased significantly. Seeing this, Ling Xi did not dare to be slow and hurriedly circulated her cultivation technique to follow closely behind.

The two figures turned into two streams of light in the sky, galloping toward the Spirit Realm at an astonishing speed.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, the space entrance to the Spirit Realm finally appeared ahead. However, when the two arrived near the entrance, the scene before them shocked them.

The entrance, which should have been guarded by experts of the Spirit Clan, was now empty, and the surroundings were terrifyingly silent. What was even more alarming was that the space barrier of the Spirit Realm had been completely closed, as if an invisible wall had completely isolated the entire Spirit Realm from the outside world.

"This is not right. Under normal circumstances, it would not be like this."

Ling Xi said faintly, the unease in her heart growing stronger. As the heaven-gifted daughter of the Spirit Clan, Ling Xi's premonitions had been extremely accurate since she was young.

Feeling so uneasy now, she feared the Spirit Clan had truly encountered great trouble this time.

Are the members of the Spirit Clan alright right now? Thinking of this, Ling Xi felt a dull pain in her chest. At this moment, Gu Fei's brows were locked in a frown, his mind involuntarily recalling the scene when he met Gu Yang at the Ancient Clan Ancestral Hall earlier.

The triumphant look on that old fox's face now seemed so suspicious.

Regardless, the people of the Ancient Clan had always been cautious and ruthless; this matter was likely premeditated long ago.

Now, the Spirit Realm was actually completely sealed.

It was eighty percent likely related to the Soul Clan!

"Could it be that the Soul Clan has really made a move?"

Gu Fei muttered to himself, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

If the Soul Clan had truly made a move against the Spirit Clan, the situation was likely even worse than they had imagined.

With the strength of the Spirit Clan, they could not contend with the Soul Clan at all.

Moreover, if they were to deal with the Spirit Clan, given the Soul Clan's consistently ruthless and cautious methods, they would certainly not send mere cannon fodder! Not good!

"It seems I can only ask the Clan Leader to take action!"

Thinking of this, Gu Fei took a deep breath, a look of determination appearing in his eyes.

As he spoke, he took out a crystal-clear jade slip from his robes.

This was the Space Jade Slip that Gu Yuan had given him, which could summon Gu Yuan to help in a moment of crisis.

There was no time to worry about much else now. Gu Fei crushed the jade slip without hesitation.

In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color!

The fragments of the jade slip turned into specks of starlight, condensing into a complex rune in the void. That rune emitted a dazzling light, as if it were about to illuminate the entire sky.

Following that, the rune began to spin rapidly, forming a massive vortex. At the center of the vortex, space began to twist and deform, and a crack slowly emerged.

The crack grew larger and larger, finally turning into a Space Channel large enough for one person to pass through. The channel emitted a heart-palpitating fluctuation, as if it were connected to some distant time and space.

The next moment, a figure walked slowly out of the channel.

The person was tall, dressed in a luxurious robe, with a majestic aura and eyes like torches.

It was none other than the Ancient Clan Clan Leader, Gu Yuan! As soon as Gu Yuan appeared, the entire world fell silent. His terrifying aura as a Nine-Star Dou Sheng Peak instantly enveloped a radius of several hundred miles, and even the air seemed to freeze.

"What has happened?"

Gu Yuan asked, his voice deep. He had given Gu Fei the Space Jade Slip so that Gu Fei could summon him in times of danger.

Since Gu Fei had used this item, it meant that something major had occurred.

However, as it stood, there were no enemies around, which made Gu Yuan feel somewhat surprised.

The next moment, before Gu Fei could answer, Gu Yuan's gaze suddenly froze.

"This is... the Extreme West!"

Gu Yuan looked around, his brows tightly furrowed.

"Oh? It is actually the aura of the Void Swallowing Flame."

The next moment, Gu Yuan's expression became even more solemn.

What kind of person was Gu Yuan? His vision was incredibly high! How could his perception as a Nine-Star Dou Saint fail to notice anything? Previously, it was because the distance was too great to detect, but now that the distance had closed, he naturally sensed the aura of the Void Swallowing Flame from outside the Spirit Realm space immediately.

"Clan Leader, the Spirit Realm space has suddenly closed, which is highly abnormal. Since you have sensed the aura of the Void Swallowing Flame, I fear the Soul Clan is currently inside the Spirit Realm harming the people of the Spirit Clan!"

Seeing this, Gu Fei hurriedly explained.

"The Soul Clan is actually so bold!"

Gu Yuan frowned, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.

Gu Yuan could naturally guess a thing or two about the reasons behind the Soul Clan invading the Spirit Clan.

How could he stand idly by at a time like this!

The next moment, Gu Yuan said no more and took action directly.

The next moment, Gu Yuan raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread, and a brilliant golden light instantly condensed in his palm.

That light contained energy fluctuations that made one's heart palpitate, as if a miniature sun were blooming in his palm.

Gu Yuan gave a gentle push, and the golden ball of light flew toward the void of space in front of him.

In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color!

Wherever the golden ball of light passed, the air was instantly evaporated, forming a vacuum channel.

A massive pressure swept across a radius of a hundred miles, and even Ling Xi nearby was barely able to hide behind Gu Fei to hold on; when the ball of light touched the space barrier of the Spirit Realm, a deafening roar came.

"Boom!"

Watching the terrifying energy fluctuations sweep in all directions, the clouds within a radius of several hundred miles were scattered by this power. The earth trembled violently, as if a magnitude nine earthquake had occurred.

Gu Fei stood by, dumbfounded as he watched this scene, his heart filled with shock.

Before this, Gu Fei had truly never seen Gu Yuan make a move; it was said that a Nine-Star Dou Saint was terrifying to this extent, and now it seemed it was definitely not just hearsay.

A casual strike from Gu Yuan could trigger the Heavenly Tide and alter the laws of nature. (End of chapter)
