296. Chapter 296: Spirit Devouring Clan!

On the other side.

Above the Spirit Realm, black clouds pressed down on the city, and monstrous black flames swept over like the arrival of the apocalypse.

The last shred of hope in the hearts of the Spirit Clan members was completely extinguished along with the shattering of the great formation.

An atmosphere of despair shrouded the entire Spirit Realm; everyone knew that this time, the Spirit Clan would likely not escape this calamity.

"Hahahaha."

Watching this scene, Hun Xuzi could not help but look up and laugh wildly.

At this moment, his sinister face was filled with smugness and arrogance, as if he had already seen the moment of the Spirit Clan's destruction.

"Hahaha! Spirit Clan, oh Spirit Clan."

"Once upon a time, you were one of the Ancient Eight Clans, arrogant and peerless. Yet today, you must bow down and submit at the feet of my Soul Clan!"

Hun Xuzi laughed wildly.

Facing such an arrogant Hun Xuzi, a flash of sorrow crossed Ling Yuan's eyes. Now that the Spirit Clan had lost its power, she looked around at the clansmen who had already lost their will to fight.

A sharp pain pierced Ling Yuan's heart.

As Clan Leader, she knew well the responsibility on her shoulders; even facing such a desperate situation, she must never easily give up.

"Fellow clansmen!"

"Even if we cannot win, we must not let the Soul Clan slaughter and destroy our Spirit Clan so easily!"

Ling Yuan's expression was miserable, but her voice still carried a sense of determination.

Before her voice had even faded, the aura around Ling Yuan suddenly erupted. Her petite body instantly burst forth with astonishing energy fluctuations, and the surrounding air twisted because of it.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, monstrous Dou Qi surged out from within Ling Yuan's body. That power was so strong that even the surrounding rocks trembled.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand-foot-large streak of Dou Qi condensed into shape in front of Ling Yuan. The streak was entirely silver-white, emitting a dazzling light, as if it could pierce through the horizon. "Go!"

Ling Yuan let out a sharp cry, and that streak immediately whistled out, carrying the momentum to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth, heading straight for the black-flamed figure in the sky.

This action by Ling Yuan seemed to ignite the final flame in the hearts of all the Spirit Clan members.

"The Clan Leader is right! We must not sit and wait for death!"

"Even if we die, we must make the Soul Clan pay the price!"

"For the glory of the Spirit Clan, fight!"

In an instant, the entire Spirit Realm began to boil.

All the clansmen who could still stand erupted with their final strength, and streaks of Dou Qi of various colors shot into the sky.

The scene was spectacular; countless streaks of energy covered the sky and earth, as if they were going to light up the entire sky.

Each streak contained the determination and fury of the Spirit Clan members, carrying an aura of martyrdom as they bombarded Void Swallowing Flame.

That's right!

Although the Spirit Clan had long since declined, the spirit of having once been one of the Ancient Eight Clans still remained; the people of the Spirit Clan had long since prepared the resolve to rather be a shattered jade than an intact tile!

"Lord Void!"

Seeing this astonishing scene, even Hun Xuzi's expression could not help but change.

The next moment, he hurriedly hid behind Void Swallowing Flame, fearing he would be caught in the aftermath of the entire Spirit Clan's combined power.

After all, no matter how much the Spirit Clan had declined, this strike contained the power of the entire clan!

With cultivation like Hun Xuzi's, he was not yet enough to rival this power.

"Rumble—"

That massive energy collided with the black flames in the sky in an instant.

A cloud of dust swept across the entire area. Gradually, the dust dissipated, and the black-flamed figure in the sky remained completely motionless.

"Hehe." A trace of disdain flashed in Void Swallowing Flame's eyes, which were as deep as black holes.

"Overestimating your own strength!"

"Even if you use the power of your entire clan, to this old man, it is nothing more than a mantis trying to block a chariot."

A deep and majestic voice echoed between heaven and earth.

The next moment, Void Swallowing Flame slowly raised his hand, and his palm, covered in strange runes, quickly formed seals in the air.

In an instant, the black flames across the entire sky churned violently. The scene was like the arrival of the apocalypse; countless black flames rolled and roared, finally condensing into a massive black hole vortex behind Void Swallowing Flame.

That vortex emitted a heart-palpitating devouring power, as if it could swallow everything between heaven and earth. The attack of the entire Spirit Clan appeared so insignificant before this terrifying devouring power.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The massive streaks of Dou Qi were sucked into the black hole without suspense. Low, muffled explosions sounded continuously inside the black hole, but they quickly returned to silence, as if they had never happened.

"How could this be..."

"This... this is all fine?"

Seeing this scene, Ling Yuan's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

In those eyes filled with wisdom, only deep despair remained. As the Spirit Clan Leader, she knew better than anyone what this meant.

Facing such a terrifying powerhouse, the Spirit Clan had no hope left.

Alas! The Spirit Clan is finished!!

"Hehe, Lord Void is not something you trash can imagine!"

"Today, let you witness what a true powerhouse looks like!"

Seeing this scene, the smugness on Hun Xuzi's face grew even greater.

"Hahahaha."

Before Void Swallowing Flame's wild laughter had even faded, the vast expanse of black flames in the sky suddenly began to squirm. Countless black flames crawled and gathered like living creatures, finally condensing in mid-air into round, egg-like objects.

Those spheres were entirely wreathed in black flames, and faint rays of blood-colored light seeped out from the black flame clouds, finally darting into those fetal eggs.

The next moment, those spheres suddenly rushed toward the ground like arrows released from a bow. Their speed was astonishingly fast, and in the blink of an eye, they charged into the bodies of the Spirit Clan members.

"Ah!"

Piercing screams rose one after another. On the bodies of those clansmen struck by the spheres, blood holes instantly appeared, and fresh blood gushed out like a fountain.

Seeing this, a trace of pain flashed in Ling Yuan's eyes.

The next moment, Ling Yuan moved quickly, grabbing a black-flame creature in her hand and examining it carefully. "Impossible!"

"This is..."

Suddenly, Ling Yuan's pupils constricted sharply, and she drew in a cold breath.

"Spirit Devouring Clan? How could this race still exist? In the ancient era, weren't they completely exterminated!"

Ling Yuan's voice was filled with disbelief. As the Spirit Clan Clan Leader, she naturally knew of the terror of the Spirit Devouring Clan.

Speaking of this Spirit Devouring Clan, they were a race from the ancient era, possessing the special ability to devour the bloodline power of other races. It is said that in the ancient era, in order to better continue the development of their own race, the Spirit Devouring Clan once launched a great war against other Ancient Races, wiping out numerous Ancient Races and seizing their bloodline power.

And it was also in that era that the Spirit Devouring Clan was finally jointly annihilated by many Ancient Races. How could they now... Just as Ling Yuan was shocked, the incomparably smug Void Swallowing Flame in the sky suddenly let out a muffled groan of pain.

"Lord Void, what is wrong with you?"

Hun Xuzi panicked and hurriedly asked.

"This is..."

"Gu Yuan? How did he come here?"

Void Swallowing Flame did not answer; his gaze looked toward the distant sky, and he murmured in a low voice, his words filled with disbelief. (End of this chapter)
