Chapter 318: 318. Death Realm Array!

318. Chapter 318: Death Realm Array!

Following Hun Yuantian's announcement that the Gate of Dead Silence had been destroyed, the three gaunt figures in the sky immediately fell into silence.

"What did you say?"

The three gaunt elders exclaimed in unison, their voices filled with disbelief.

Their withered faces were etched with shock, while Hun Yuantian remained silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.

"Hun Yuantian, we spent many years planning, only then managing to cultivate four Gates of Dead Silence!"

One of the elders said through gritted teeth, his voice filled with rage. His withered finger pointed at Hun Yuantian, as if he wanted to crush him to pieces.

"You actually, actually allowed it to be destroyed in such a short amount of time?"

Another elder continued, his voice carrying a trace of trembling.

This Gate of Dead Silence, which had taken countless efforts to cultivate, had actually been destroyed just like that.

The three were practically incensed; their withered bodies trembled slightly, and a heart-palpitating aura erupted from their surroundings.

The entire sky dimmed, as if countless wronged souls were wailing.

"How was it destroyed?"

"Tell me!"

The three questioned in unison, their voices filled with interrogation.

At this moment, the three of them wanted to see exactly what kind of existence could destroy the Gate of Dead Silence—which they had spent countless efforts to cultivate—in such a short time.

Hun Yuantian's aged face was filled with pain and unwillingness; he raised his hand with difficulty and pointed at a figure in the sky opposite. "It was that brat, Gu Fei of the Ancient Clan!"

His voice was filled with fear.

Following the direction of Hun Yuantian's finger, the gazes of the three gaunt elders fell upon Gu Fei.

Gu Fei was seen hovering in mid-air, his entire body shining with golden light, radiating a terrifying, heart-palpitating aura.

A faint smile played on Gu Fei's handsome face, as if he did not care about everything before him at all.

Even these four old fellows had heard of Gu Fei's name during this period.

They knew that Gu Fei was a heaven-gifted talent of the Ancient Clan with extraordinary strength. However, they had not expected that Gu Fei had already become powerful to such a degree that he could frontally destroy the Gate of Dead Silence in a short time while in Hun Yuantian's hands.

One must know that even existences like Lei Ying and Yan Jin would find it difficult to do this.

The three gaunt elders exchanged a glance, a trace of gravity flashing in their eyes. They were very clear that the array they had formed was a notorious array from the Central Plains back in the day.

Only by constructing the four Gates of Dead Silence could one create a Death Realm. Experts who fell into it, even Seven-Star or Eight-Star Dou Saints, would be enveloped by endless death aura and eventually sink into it.

If this array were successfully deployed, it would certainly cause the Allied Forces to suffer heavy losses. But no one had expected that such a turn of events would occur at this critical juncture.

"That brat is too strong; the Battle Technique he unleashed had unimaginable power! If not for the Gate of Dead Silence absorbing the power within it, I would likely be dead already!"

Seeing the expressions of the three elders, Hun Yuantian hurriedly explained.

Looking closely at Hun Yuantian's face, which was as pale as paper—this fellow's current state was the best evidence!

Those originally murky eyes had now lost their luster, and the entire person looked like a walking corpse.

Hearing Hun Yuantian's explanation, Lei Ying and Yan Jin could not help but gasp.

"This guy has improved a lot again; he can actually destroy a Gate of Dead Silence alone."

Yan Jin whispered with a sigh, his tone filled with admiration.

"If another ten years pass, I fear Gu Fei will be able to grow into an expert like Gu Yuan."

Lei Ying also nodded, a trace of gratification flashing in his eyes. Just as everyone was shocked by Gu Fei's strength, the three gaunt elders frowned.

"What do we do now? The vitality within our bodies is already low."

"Taking action this time will also exhaust the accumulated vitality; we will need to recuperate for quite a while before we can act again. During this time, if another major battle breaks out, we will be unable to intervene."

One of them spoke up.

As he spoke, he glared at Hun Yuantian with annoyance, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.

Clearly, he was very dissatisfied with Hun Yuantian's mistake.

"The price has already been paid, so naturally, it is impossible to do useless work. Deploy the array first and try to severely damage the Allied Forces!"

Another gaunt elder with a sallow complexion had flickering eyes, then said grimly.

"Mm."

Hearing this, the other two also nodded.

Things having reached this point, this was the only way!!! "Hun Yuantian, why haven't you returned to your position? Had we known this would happen, we shouldn't have let you act first to save Hun Feng. Now, not only was the person not saved, but our clan's grand plan has been delayed."

"If you were not also an elder of our clan, I would strike you down right now!"

The sallow-faced elder turned to look at Hun Yuantian and shouted sternly.

Hun Yuantian opened his mouth to speak, then swallowed it back.

He had just been severely injured by Gu Fei, and now, even if he returned to the array, he could not provide much assistance.

But given the current situation, he could only give it his all.

"I can only risk this old life..."

Hun Yuantian muttered in a low voice, a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.

After all, he could not let the entire Soul Clan's plan fall through because of his own blunder!

Now he could only bite the bullet and go!

The next moment, Hun Yuantian's figure flashed and appeared on one side of the sky. He was seen forming seals with his hands, and a dense aura of death surged out from his palms, then connected with the three Gates of Dead Silence.

In an instant, the entire world changed.

A dark world suddenly descended, encompassing the entire mountain range. Endless death aura permeated, eroding all living things within it. Even the air was filled with a decaying smell, as if one were in the Nine Nether Hell.

The heaven-toppling death aura enveloped all directions, and the main force of the Allied Forces also gathered together at this moment. They looked at the black mist with vigilance, their faces etched with gravity. This infiltration could not be blocked, regardless of whether they used Dou Qi or soul power.

"We must break out as soon as possible!"

Yan Jin, Lei Ying, and the others frowned, a trace of anxiety flashing in their eyes. They were very clear that if they continued to be trapped in this Death Realm, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, just as everyone was extremely anxious, Gu Fei appeared unusually calm. A faint smile hung on his handsome face, and his eyes shone with a confident light.

"Rest assured, this formation is missing one piece, so the gap is very obvious. That Hun Yuantian cannot hold on for long!"

Gu Fei said indifferently, his voice filled with composure.

Hearing Gu Fei's words, everyone could not help but be stunned.

A thick aura of death permeated the mountain range, and darkness shrouded the entire battlefield like ink. The experts of the Six-Clan Allied Forces gathered together, looking at the rolling black mist all around with grave expressions.

Just as everyone fell into a desperate situation, a clear voice suddenly rang out. (End of chapter)
