Spirit Clan

On the horizon, Xiao Yan and the others gasped at the sight! They couldn't help but be horrified by the dense mass of corpses and bones. How many people had died here? Xiao Yan carefully examined them and discovered that these dense corpses were by no means recent. Judging from the clothes and adornments left on these bones, most of them were from very distant times!

Xiao Yan's Soul swept over and found that the souls and flesh of these corpses had disappeared, having been sucked away. There were all kinds of creatures among the corpses, including various strangely shaped and gigantic Magical Beasts. Xiao Yan even saw the bones of the Snake-People Race.

However, the vast majority were humans, with human corpses accounting for at least 80%!

"I'm afraid there are tens of millions of them. This... this is simply the annihilation of a small country!" The Amethyst Crystal Winged Lion King was stunned by the sight, muttering to himself.

A vast country like the Gama Empire would certainly have more than just tens of millions of citizens, but a small country like Medusa's Snake-People Empire, composed of eight tribes, might only have tens of millions of people.

This sunken basin contained such a number, a terrifying sea of corpses that would make anyone's hair stand on end! No one knew why this treasure land within Youdu Venerable's Space Lock had such a mountain of corpses! This was too eerie! At this moment, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as he looked at a place below where smoke and dust billowed. As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a figure wrapped in black light slowly appeared.

Xiao Yan's Three-Colored Fire Lotus had not killed the fake Youdu Venerable. A defensive Dou Technique had helped him withstand most of the attack, but it had also revealed his true face.

"A disciple of the Spirit Clan, a Dou Di family?" As the light membrane shattered, Xiao Yan saw the badge on the person's clothes and understood that this person was actually a disciple of the Spirit Clan, a Dou Di family!

Xiao Yan had joined the Soul Palace and obtained a Soul Token, so he naturally knew something about the Dou Di families, especially after the battle with Ling Quan, Xiao Yan had investigated the Dou Di families.

The information that Soul Old Ghost gave Xiao Yan included not only the Medicine Clan, but also the news that other Dou Di families were teaming up to come here.

"Xiao Yan, what's going on? Why are so many creatures dead here!" Zi Yan couldn't help but feel her scalp tingle and goosebumps rise all over her body. Such a number was bound to be unsettling.

Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the pile of corpses filling the valley below, and he said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, the poisonous miasma outside the Deep Secluded Canyon was actually set up by Youdu Venerable to prevent people from entering this place, and the Space Lock seal was also set up to prevent people from accidentally entering this world."

"This is not Youdu Venerable's legacy at all. This is likely a feeding trap for some demon, which Youdu Venerable discovered and sealed!"

When Xiao Yan saw the dense mass of creature corpses, combined with the fact that the poisonous miasma in the Deep Secluded Canyon had always existed, he understood.

These corpses were from a long time ago, before Youdu Venerable came. Youdu Venerable had prevented the disaster from continuing and sealed the entrance.

"Hehe, you guessed right, but it's too impolite to describe it as a demon. This is the canteen of the great Devouring Grievance Elder of the Soul Devouring Clan. As long as that one can be resurrected, he will grant me the power of bloodline, and my Dou Di Bloodline will be improved. At that time, not only will I break through the seventh-grade bloodline, but the eighth-grade, ninth-grade, or even divine-grade bloodline is possible!" The Spirit Clan disciple seemed to be dreaming, intoxicated.

"Why can the Gu Clan and Soul Clan have such a strong Dou Di Bloodline, while my Spirit Clan is so weak, almost exhausted? It's not fair! I want to seize their Dou Di Bloodline for my own use!"

Xiao Yan frowned. He didn't know what this Soul Devouring Clan was, but from the mouth of this Spirit Clan Dou Zong disciple, he could tell that this Soul Devouring Clan seemed to be able to take other people's Dou Di Bloodline for their own.

Xiao Yan had also heard of the Spirit Clan, the weakest of the remaining seven Dou Di families in terms of Dou Di Bloodline power, similar to the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago, already on the verge of exhaustion.

Therefore, the disciples of the Spirit Clan had been hiding in their Spirit Realm, preventing their Dou Di Bloodline from being divided up by other Dou Di families, just like the Xiao Clan back then.

"Xiao Yan... look over there." Little Fairy Doctor gently tugged at Xiao Yan's sleeve, pointing to a mountain wall in the basin.

A holy and peerless orchid was planted on the mountain wall. Without a doubt, that was the Clear Soul Youlan that Little Fairy Doctor was looking for. In addition, there were some unknown natural treasures growing there!

"What a hunting trap, projecting the natural treasures to lure a large number of treasure-seeking cultivators in." Xiao Yan's heart sank. He never thought that one day he would become a fish lured in by bait.

"Clear Soul Youlan? Hehehe, don't worry, you will soon become the nutrients for the Clear Soul Youlan." The Spirit Clan disciple Ling Tian revealed a cruel smile, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

Suddenly, some white mist rose from the entire sunken mountain area. In the blink of an eye, this strange white mist filled the entire space.

At this moment, a terrifying sound suddenly rang out. From under the countless corpses piled up like mountains, white shadows like ghosts crawled out. These white shadows were like white demons crawling out of the ground, exuding a terrifying aura.

In the blink of an eye, thousands upon thousands of white shadow specters crawled out. These specters, filled with evil aura, each exuded a not-weak aura. Without a doubt, these thousands upon thousands of ghostly things were very powerful.

This reminded Xiao Yan of the ghosts he had encountered in the Beast Tomb.

At this moment, at the forefront of these thousands upon thousands of white wronged souls and ghosts, leading them was someone Xiao Yan knew!

"That's Du Gu Tian Gao, the Sect Leader of the Poison Sect?!"

"And Xie Shan, the Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate!"

"The other three are all famous powerhouses of the Chuyun Empire! What happened to them!"

Some Chuyun Empire powerhouses who had come after hearing the commotion were instantly stunned. At this time, Xie Shan and the others had dull eyes, as if they were lost souls, their eyes vacant.

Seeing this scene, many Chuyun Empire powerhouses gasped. They seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and muttered in a horrified tone, "Are they being controlled?"

"Why don't we leave here?" Little Fairy Doctor said with a solemn expression. Adding the Spirit Clan's Ling Tian, there were already two Dou Zongs here, and the countless ghosts they led were not weak. This force could sweep across the entire Gama Empire! "Perhaps we can't leave even if we want to. I just tried to open a void connection to the outside Soul imprint, but I failed. There is a force hindering it." Xiao Yan had just tried to use the power of Void Swallowing Flame to create a temporary Space Wormhole, but a special force blocked the Void Swallowing Flame from opening the void.

Hearing this, Zi Yan's body emitted a burst of Purple Light, but in the end, she actually failed.

"There is a strange force preventing it. It will take some time to open the void." Zi Yan frowned, said.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yan spread out his left hand, and a ball of Black Flame appeared in his palm. With a gentle toss, the Black Flame transformed into a black cat and stood on Zi Yan's shoulder.

"Zi Yan, you and it open the void passage together. Little Fairy Doctor and I will block these ghosts. We'll grab the Clear Soul Youlan and run." A fierce glint flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. This Clear Soul Youlan could suppress the Calamity Poison Body in Little Fairy Doctor's body. Even if it couldn't completely eliminate the Calamity Poison Body, it could at least delay the time, giving Xiao Yan more time to find the Seventh-Order Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's Magic Core and Bodhi Transformation Saliva.

Hiss!! Countless white ghosts flew out of the basin, but their target was not Little Fairy Doctor and the others, but the cultivators in this world! Without a doubt, the Soul Devouring Clan's hunting ritual had begun.

"Ahhh! What the hell is this thing!"

"Get lost!"

Those white ghostly things were like evil spirits, pouncing and biting at anyone they saw, killing them and carrying their corpses into the valley, letting the blood and flesh flow out and seep into the ground.

The entire world was filled with screams.

This basin's densely packed mountain of corpses was actually formed like this! One could imagine how many times such things had happened in this place!

Whoosh!! A pair of huge, bone-white fire wings appeared behind Xiao Yan, freezing those white creatures that dared to pounce on him, and the temperature of the entire space actually dropped! It was clearly a flame, but it could release extreme cold, which was very strange. Bone Spirit Cold Flame was the highest-ranked among the many Strange Flames that Xiao Yan possessed.

"Lion King, you and Little Fairy Doctor go and snatch the Clear Soul Youlan, be careful of those five guys, I'll hold back that crazy guy, and we'll leave as soon as Zi Yan opens up the void!" Xiao Yan said with a serious expression.

If it were just these ghostly things in front of him, Xiao Yan might be able to win using the Heavenly Flame Venerable's power, but the problem was, if he wasn't mistaken, there was an even more powerful ghostly thing underground here! He definitely couldn't beat that thing, and now he could only try to delay for some time and attract attention! Seeing Xiao Yan flying towards him, Ling Tian smiled coldly and said, "Hehehe, a mere Dou Wang from the lower realms, don't think that having a Strange Flame makes you invincible. On the Dou Qi Continent, having the Dou Di Bloodline is what makes you invincible!"

At this time, Ling Tian said with a sinister smile, "You have a road to heaven but you don't take it, you barge into hell when there's no door! Today is your death date!"

"Is that so?" Xiao Yan just smiled lightly, and instantly a powerful Soul force came out from the deep white Storage Ring, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan's cultivation soared to Seven-Star Dou Huang.

Xiao Yan didn't hold back, taking out pills from the Storage Ring one after another, throwing them all into his mouth, pills for restoring injuries, increasing strength, improving defense, and accelerating Dou Qi recovery, using all kinds of buffs at once!

*"Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations!"* Xiao Yan shouted in his heart, and a terrifying Strange Flame power spread throughout his body, and Xiao Yan's cultivation began to climb continuously.

But after all, the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations only had the first transformation, and Xiao Yan's cultivation was now much higher than before, even the Fused Strange Flame's Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations could only reach the level of a Half-Step Dou Zong.

However, that was enough!

"This is the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations! How do you know that family's secret technique!" Ling Tian's expression changed drastically. All the Dou Di families knew about the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, because after the Xiao Clan was destroyed, the other Dou Di families had discussed how to divide the Xiao Clan's Xiao World and assets, and Dou Techniques.

And the secret technique created by Xiao Xuan, the last legendary patriarch, was naturally copied by everyone.

*"Eight Extremities Collapse!"* At this time, Xiao Yan, hidden under the Soul Robe, had a cold expression, and with a loud roar, his fist contained terrifying force and Strange Flame, and he blasted out with the power of a Half-Step Dou Zong.

This punch shook the heavens and the earth, collapsing mountains and rivers, and the terrifying fist wind swept out. Such momentum was enough to shatter mountains.

Ling Tian snorted coldly, his palm rolled through space, and he swung out a palm, fist against palm.

Boom!! Two powerful forces collided together, and the Eightfold Hidden Force with Strange Flame erupted, knocking Ling Tian back several steps, and there were some scorched marks on his palm.

And Xiao Yan didn't gain any advantage either. That Ling Tian was much stronger than Ling Quan, and the Dou Di Bloodline he possessed was probably even higher, and coupled with his own cultivation reaching Three-Star Dou Zong, Xiao Yan's right hand was a little numb from the shock.

If it weren't for the Burning Art evolving to the Heaven Rank Low Level, and the Dou Qi being terrifying, he would have suffered a great loss from this palm.

"This guy is much stronger than Great Elder Su Qian."

"Hmph!" Being repelled by a lower realm person who had improved his strength through secret techniques was a disgrace to Ling Tian, who was extremely proud of being a disciple of a Dou Di family, and he roared wildly, shattering the earth.

Ling Tian's whole body burst out with a burst of Spirit Light, like the sun, and he instantly pounced out, his power fierce and invincible.

Seeing Ling Tian pouncing, the Dragon Qi in Xiao Yan's body erupted, and the Dou Qi circulated along a special Meridians route.

*"Ancient Dragon's Roar!"*

Roar!! An incomparably terrifying Dragon's Roar sounded, and the terrifying sound waves blasted towards the pouncing Ling Tian like a long dragon.

Crack crack crack!!! The Dragon's Roar resounded, and the surrounding withered bones and corpses shattered one after another.

"Sound wave Dou Technique? Hmph! Spirit Light Body Protection!" With a buzz, the light on Ling Tian's body flickered, and he actually rushed directly into Xiao Yan's sound waves.

That sound wave Dou Technique that even made Ling Quan and Han Feng's Souls tremble was actually ineffective! The Dragon Qi was completely unable to invade!

"Does the Spirit Clan have such characteristics?"

Just like the Soul Clan and the Medicine Clan, as disciples of the Dou Di family, they themselves were also affected by the Dou Di Bloodline, and some 'specializations' would appear.

His face changed, and Xiao Yan hurriedly took out the Mystic Heavy Ruler from the Storage Ring, and with a clang, Ling Tian slammed a palm on the Mystic Heavy Ruler, and an extremely terrifying force came from the Mystic Heavy Ruler.

Hiss hiss hiss!! Xiao Yan slid on the ground for dozens of meters, and suddenly the Qi and blood in his body surged, and this time he actually suffered some losses!

Buzz! A beam of light shot down, and lightning surged under Xiao Yan's feet. With a bang, the light sword split a crack in the ground, and Xiao Yan's lightning clone was directly split in two.

"Light attribute Dou Qi?" Xiao Yan's eyes looked at the light sword that Ling Tian had transformed with Dou Qi. It was the first time he had seen light attribute Dou Qi!

"My Spirit Clan's Dou Di is a Dou Di who uses light attribute Dou Qi." Speaking of his light attribute Dou Qi, Ling Tian couldn't help but show pride on his face. Basically, there would be no cultivators of light attribute Dou Qi on the entire Dou Qi Continent, which was even rarer than Alchemists.

Under the Soul Robe, the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth rose, and since that was the case, he wouldn't be polite.

Instantly, an extremely strong Soul force erupted from Xiao Yan's own body, and this Soul belonged to him!

A monstrous killing intent surged from within the Soul power! "Asura Soul Severing Technique—Soul Chasing, *Sever!*"
