316. Chapter 316: Shocking Change!

At this moment.

Hun Yuantian's two turbid eyes were filled with an expression of disbelief.

He stared fixedly at Gu Fei in mid-air. In his understanding, how could a young man possibly possess such terrifying strength?

Gu Fei hovered in mid-air, looking down condescendingly at the battered Hun Yuantian. A cold sneer appeared on his handsome face, and sharp killing intent flickered in his eyes.

A black river churned and roared beneath his feet, and the wails of countless wronged souls and evil ghosts came incessantly, giving one the feeling of being in hell.

"No, if this continues, I won't even be able to remain a living corpse..."

Intense fear rose in Hun Yuantian's heart; he realized that he was simply no match for Gu Fei.

At this moment, he was already heavily injured and on the verge of death, and having been severely wounded by Gu Fei's Yellow Springs Heaven Wrath, even his soul was overcome with a sense of dizziness. He intended to flee, but in this state, even moving a little seemed exceptionally difficult.

Gu Fei saw through Hun Yuantian's intention, and a mocking smile curled the corners of his mouth. He quickly formed seals with both hands, and a terrifying aura that made one's heart palpitate erupted from his body.

"Die!"

Gu Fei let out a sharp shout, and a seven-colored fire lotus was seen condensing into shape in his palm. The fire lotus looked beautiful, but the destructive power contained within it made one shudder.

However, Gu Fei did not stop there. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he continued to condense fire lotuses.

"If one Destruction Fire Lotus isn't enough, then have two, three!"

As Gu Fei's hand seals changed, the number of Destruction Fire Lotuses in front of him rapidly increased to three. Three seven-colored fire lotuses hovered in mid-air, emitting a suffocating, terrifying aura.

These three fire lotuses shimmered with brilliant light under the sun's rays, as if they were three small suns about to erupt.

Seeing this scene, the fear in Hun Yuantian's eyes grew even greater. His aged face was filled with despair, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"No, don't!"

Hun Yuantian let out a shrill scream, using all his strength to urge the last trace of Dou Qi in his body, attempting to activate the Gate of Dead Silence.

A massive black gate filled with an eerie aura was seen slowly condensing into shape in front of Hun Yuantian. The surface of the giant gate was covered in mysterious runes, emitting a deathly aura that made one's heart palpitate. However, at this moment, the Gate of Dead Silence was already covered in cracks and could collapse at any time.

"Go!"

At Gu Fei's command, the three Destruction Fire Lotuses whistled out, sweeping toward Hun Yuantian. Wherever the fire lotuses passed, the air was evaporated by the high temperature, forming a vacuum zone.

A terrifying heatwave swept out, and even the mountain rocks in the distance were baked red, emitting bursts of heat.

Hun Yuantian used all his strength to urge the Gate of Dead Silence, attempting to block this fatal blow. However, when the three Destruction Fire Lotuses collided with the Gate of Dead Silence, the entire world went silent.

"Boom—!"

An earth-shattering explosion resounded through the heavens. A terrifying energy storm centered on Hun Yuantian swept out in all directions. Mountain peaks within a radius of several dozen miles were instantly leveled by the impact of this power.

Countless fragments of rock fell from the sky like meteorites, crashing onto the ground and kicking up bursts of dust.

The entire sky was shrouded by the light produced by this explosion, as if a massive sun had risen here. That scene was simply shocking.

When the dust settled, everyone was finally able to see the scene in the center of the battlefield. The Gate of Dead Silence of Hun Yuantian had completely collapsed, turning into countless fragments scattered on the ground.

As for Hun Yuantian himself, he lay on the ground in a wretched state, his entire body covered in terrifying wounds, his aura weak to the extreme.

"It finally shattered!" Gu Fei let out a long breath, a look of relief appearing on his face.

This Gate of Dead Silence was indeed troublesome; if an ordinary Seven-Star Dou Saint expert were sucked into it, they would likely find it difficult to escape.

However, with Gu Fei's current strength as an Eight-Star Dou Saint, combined with Xiao Ying's terrifying fire lotus, it was finally completely destroyed.

"What, the Gate of Dead Silence is shattered?"

Hun Yuantian muttered to himself, his eyes filled with despair.

This Gate of Dead Silence was something he had condensed with hundreds of years of effort, and it was crucial for this great battle. Now that it was destroyed, even if he didn't die, he would likely face severe punishment from the clan.

"Save the Elder!"

Just as Gu Fei was preparing to deliver the final blow to Hun Yuantian, a hurried shout suddenly came from the distance. A squad of several hundred elite Soul Clan experts was seen rushing rapidly toward this side.

Each of them emitted a not-weak aura; clearly, most were high-level Dou Zuns, up to Half-Saint level experts.

Gu Fei frowned slightly, a trace of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

He had wanted to end the battle quickly, but he hadn't expected so many more people to emerge.

At the same time, the black clouds filling the sky suddenly churned violently.

Vaguely, a thick aura of death spread out from the clouds. That momentum was as if some terrifying existence was about to descend.

"Bang!"

Somewhere in the sky, three vast auras suddenly collided fiercely. A massive ball of black flames was seen exploding in mid-air, and countless black flames flew in all directions like sharp arrows.

Two figures were sent flying back in a wretched state from the center of the explosion, tracing two graceful arcs in mid-air.

When the two stabilized their figures, everyone was able to see their faces. They were none other than Lei Clan Leader Lei Ying and Yan Clan Leader Yan Jin. The robes on their bodies were already tattered, their faces covered in dust, looking quite wretched.

Clearly, their opponent was none other than Void Swallowing Flame. The massive black-flame figure hovered in mid-air, emitting a suffocating, terrifying aura. Even with Lei Ying and Yan Jin joining forces, they had not been able to gain the upper hand against Void Swallowing Flame.

A Nine-Star Dou Saint truly lived up to their reputation. Moreover, Void Swallowing Flame's combat power could not be measured by an ordinary Nine-Star Dou Saint.

That terrifying devouring power was enough to allow him to defeat opponents of the same level. Added to the fact that he had already advanced to an Emperor Realm Soul, the assistance to his combat was even greater.

Lei Ying and Yan Jin calmed the churning blood in their bodies, their expressions grave.

The two of them had used all their ultimate techniques this time, yet they were still unable to gain the upper hand. If this continued, it was hard to say when they might suffer injuries.

"Come again, you two, today you shall both become my nutrients!"

Void Swallowing Flame's massive body slowly approached, emitting a hair-raising laugh. Those eyes, deep as black holes, flickered with bloodthirsty light, as if he wanted to completely devour Lei Ying and Yan Jin.

"Don't get cocky!"

Yan Jin and Lei Ying were naturally unconvinced in their words, but in their hearts, they were secretly lamenting. They knew very well that if this continued, they might really fall into the hands of Void Swallowing Flame.

"Retreat quickly, the situation has changed!"

Just as the few were preparing to clash again, a slightly hurried voice suddenly rang out in the ears of Lei Ying and Yan Jin. (End of chapter)
