607: Chapter 607 Thunder Clan in Motion, Trading Ground

Lei Xuanji pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "I will return to the Lei Clan immediately to persuade Clan Leader Lei Dong not to make an enemy of the Dazheng Empire and to release the remnants of the Hun Clan."

"Lei Dong of the Lei Clan? What is this person's temperament like?" Hun Tiandi asked.

"After Lei Dong took over the position of Clan Leader from the previous generation's leader, Lei Ying, his methods have been extraordinary, significantly increasing the strength of the Lei Clan."

"This person possesses the God-grade bloodline of the Lei Clan, and his talent is of the top tier, but his personality is extremely arrogant..."

Lei Xuanji did not hide anything, recounting all the information she knew.

"Lei Dong?" Hun Tiandi tapped his finger lightly and murmured.

"Yes. Back when Lei Dong was still the Young Clan Leader, he followed the previous Clan Leader Lei Ying to the Gu Clan to discuss an alliance, attempting to strengthen the relationship between the two clans through marriage!"

"Later, he encountered Xiao Yan of the Xiao Clan. Both were geniuses of the younger generation and fought fiercely over the Gu Clan Saintess, Xiao Xun Er. Unfortunately, he was ultimately defeated!"

Lei Xuanji recalled the clan's records and informed Hun Tiandi of everything.

"No matter. Even if the Lei Clan joins the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, it is all within my calculations. However, I will not move against the Lei Clan for the time being..." Hun Tiandi stood up and paced back and forth in the study.

Lei Xuanji knew that this was out of consideration for her.

The expansion of the Da Zheng Imperial Dynasty would not stop, and Hun Tiandi would eventually clash with the Lei Clan.

The Lei Clan of Central State!

The Ganlei Mountain Range. What met the eye was a vast range of mountains where the sky was covered in black clouds year-round, with lightning snakes slithering and the sound of muffled thunder reverberating.

The environment was extremely harsh. With a whooshing sound, figures moving like muffled thunder soared into the high sky and streaked across the firmament.

Their movements were like lightning, leaving behind afterimages. If Hun Tiandi were here, he would surely recognize these people of the Lei Clan.

The movement technique they displayed was an Earth-rank movement Dou Technique.

Three Thousand Lightning Movement!

This technique is rumored to be the hallmark Dou Technique of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, one of the four pavilions of Central State. Once Three Thousand Lightning Movement reaches mastery, one can cultivate the upgraded Dou Technique.

Three Thousand Lightning Illusion Body.

It can condense clones. Upon mastery, they possess strength comparable to the original body.

Hun Tiandi's Blood God Clone was a perfected Three Thousand Lightning Illusion Body, a Blood Shadow Clone refined from the Blood God Child nurtured by the Blood Scripture.

Combined with the power of reincarnation from the Eyes of Samsara and having undergone the baptism of heavenly tribulation...

...it had created a clone with a unique life force.

As for the Lei Clan, one of the Ancient Eight Clans, they were renowned for their soul-shaking lightning-attribute Dou Qi and powerful bloodline.

Whether it was Three Thousand Lightning Movement or Three Thousand Lightning Illusion Body, they were merely ordinary Dou Techniques to the ancient heritage of the Lei Clan.

This was the foundation accumulated over time.

Thunder Hall!

Lei Dong sat cross-legged in the hall, the surging lightning energy surrounding him. He inhaled and exhaled continuously as the aura on his body circulated.

Sizzle!

A muffled sound of thunder came from afar, landing before the hall. The person pushed the door open and slowly stepped inside.

Lei Dong finished his cultivation and opened his eyes, speaking indifferently, "What is it?"

"Clan Leader, a message has come from the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, inviting the Lei Clan to destroy Hun Tiandi in the Black-Corner Region..." The newcomer was an elder of the Lei Clan.

"Destroy Hun Tiandi?" Lei Dong sneered upon hearing this, recalling the strength Hun Tiandi had displayed at the Lei Clan for the first time.

Destroying him? It would never be that simple.

"My Lei Clan refuses!" Lei Dong made his decision. He had heard about the events at the Starfall Pavilion.

It was nearly wiped out. The original intention of forming the Heavenly Mansion Alliance was to resist the Hall of Souls.

But over the years, it had almost become a tool for the Starfall Pavilion, constantly expanding outward.

Now that they encountered a thorny issue, they remembered these alliance members again.

"Yes!" The person took the order and turned to leave.

"You made the right decision. It is a blessing for the Lei Clan to have you!" In the side hall, Lei Xuanji smiled.

"The Lei Clan must never be destroyed in my hands!" Although Lei Dong was arrogant, he had to be cautious when it came to the Lei Clan.

Starfall Pavilion.

Saint Feng sat in the main seat, his elegant face full of solemnity. The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat eerie.

Below him were the elders of the Starfall Pavilion, as well as Pavilion Master You Quan and Mu Qingluan.

"Teacher, this is the intelligence from the Xiao Family..." Mu Qingluan took out Xiao Lin's decision.

She informed Saint Feng, and after he finished reading the intelligence, a faint smile appeared on his face.

He spoke indifferently, "Clan Leader Xiao has decided to use the exchange of the Remnants of the Soul Clan to dispatch experts to the Black-Corner Region and wipe out the Da Zheng Imperial Dynasty in one fell swoop!"

"Teacher, then doesn't the Starfall Pavilion have to deploy its entire foundation..."

Mu Qingluan was somewhat shocked, and the elder-level experts in the hall were also very surprised.

However, Pavilion Master You Quan had a look of excitement. Last time, the trap failed to kill Hun Tiandi, and instead allowed him to escape unscathed.

Not only did he kill Venerable Skyfire, but he also nearly caused the destruction of the Starfall Pavilion.

This had also completely enraged the entire Heavenly Mansion Alliance, and they wanted to thoroughly destroy Hun Tiandi.

When the alliance was first established, it was to resist the Hall of Souls; it was a rising power in Central State besides the Ancient Eight Clans.

"Indeed. The alliance is going to act. The Xiao Family, Flower Sect, Starfall Pavilion, Pill Tower... even those behind..."

Saint Feng spoke, but he did not mention the last part.

"Aside from Pavilion Master You Quan and the five great elders, this Saint will take away the entire foundation. To destroy Hun Tiandi, we must use our full strength!"

Saint Feng ordered.

"Yes!" The Starfall Pavilion elders took the order. Saint Feng turned to look at Mu Qingluan and said, "Qingluan, follow your teacher to the Black-Corner Region."

"Yes!" Mu Qingluan nodded.

Xingming City, Northern Region of Central State.

This was a city of the Da Zheng Imperial Dynasty. In the City Lord's Manor, the Blood God Hun Tiandi was drinking tea, followed by the experts who had come along.

Xingming City Lord Fang Yang was a talent selected through the Da Zheng Imperial Dynasty's imperial examination and was extremely loyal to Dazheng.

"Your Majesty, the Xiao Family has not yet sent a message, and the place for the trade has not been decided!" Fang Yang said respectfully.

Hun Tiandi was the stabilizing force and spiritual pillar of Dazheng.

For Fang Yang to have the honor of witnessing His Majesty, it was truly a great fortune.

"Fang Yang, you have governed Xingming City well, and your talents have been put to use..." Hun Tiandi said without hesitation.

"It is due to Your Majesty's wise leadership. This subject will not hesitate to die ten thousand deaths!" Fang Yang knelt and bowed.

"Rise!" Hun Tiandi said indifferently.

"Fang Yang, be prepared. Once the people arrive, we will transfer to the Black-Corner Region!"

"Yes!" Fang Yang immediately responded.

Time passed continuously, and finally, a month later, Xiao Lin also brought people to Central State and went to the Starfall Pavilion.

"Junior Xiao Lin greets Saint Feng!" Xiao Lin showed a gentle smile and bowed slowly.

"Xiao Lin, you are too polite!" Saint Feng smiled and then invited the people of the Xiao Family to the hall.

"Saint Feng has a deep relationship with my Grand-master, so it is only natural for this junior to pay his respects!" Xiao Lin shook his head.

Xiao Lin's strength was also at the Dou Saint level. Based on strength alone, as both were Dou Saint experts, there was naturally no need for such formalities.

But this also involved the relationship with Saint Yao.

"Saint Feng, this time we will use the remnants of the Hun Clan as a bargaining chip to lure Hun Tiandi out of the Black-Corner Region and exchange them for the Green Scale Snake Saint."

"Finally, we will set a trap to ambush and kill Hun Tiandi. At the same time, the Xiao Family and the Heavenly Mansion Alliance will act, sending experts to the Black-Corner Region to destroy the Da Zheng Imperial Dynasty in one fell swoop!"

Xiao Lin went straight to the point and stated the plan.

Behind Pavilion Master You Quan stood Tian Longzi and the other two. Their eyes swept around, and they nodded slightly.

"Clan Leader Xiao, where is the location of the trade?" Saint Feng asked in confusion.

"The trading grounds shall be the Dead Soul Mountain Range!" Xiao Lin sneered.
