290: The worries of Emperor Hun Tian!
Gu Fei achieved a Breakthrough to Seven-Star Dou Sheng.
This news was not intentionally publicized.
However, not long after, it swept across the entire Fighting Qi Continent like a storm.
For the entire Fighting Qi Continent, this was undoubtedly a major event!
To reach the Peak of the Continent at thirty years old, this speed was simply too astonishing.
"Heh heh, the Hun Clan people are now starting to pay attention to such trivial matters..."
Gu Fei stood atop the mountain Peak, chuckling softly.
He knew many things.
In fact, nothing could be hidden from the Hun Clan.
Because the Hun Clan had spies placed within every Ancient Race.
They had been planning for hundreds, even thousands of years.
The spies planted in the Gu Clan held very high positions.
Whatever the Gu Clan Elders could learn, the Hun Clan spies could also learn.
However, it didn't matter!
What was meant to come, would come.
The entire Gu Clan was filled with joy and excitement, with discussions echoing everywhere.
The younger generation even looked up to Gu Fei as their goal, vowing to follow in his footsteps.
Even some highly respected Elders couldn't help but marvel at Gu Fei's Heaven-Defying talent, which far exceeded their imagination.
"Gu Fei."
However, just as the Gu Clan was immersed in joy, a pair of cold eyes silently watched everything... Not only the news of Gu Fei's Breakthrough, but also the fact that he created the terrifying Dou Technique, Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus, was discovered by the Hun Clan.
For a time.
The entire Soul Realm was shaken!!!
In a towering palace in the deepest part of the Soul Realm, the air seemed to solidify.
In the dim main hall, two figures exuded terrifying pressure.
"Interesting!!!"
One figure, at this moment, clenched his fists tightly, and for a time, Dou Qi permeated the entire hall.
Even space trembled.
"That kid's speed of Cultivation is already faster than many Dou Di powerhouses from ancient times, and his combat power is not bad. If he is allowed to continue growing, I'm afraid another powerhouse like Gu Yuan will emerge soon."
A low, hoarse voice echoed in the hall; the speaker was Void Swallowing Flame.
Its eyes, burning with black flames, stared intently at Gu Fei in the image, with both apprehension and a hint of unwillingness.
Upon mentioning Gu Yuan, Void Swallowing Flame's massive body involuntarily trembled.
That fierce battle a thousand years ago felt like yesterday, and Gu Yuan's terrifying strength still left it with lingering fear.
Now, by extensively collecting Soul Origin through the Hall of Souls for consumption, its current strength was incomparable to the past.
It had already Cultivated to Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and throughout the entire Continent, it was hard to find a match.
But as long as Gu Yuan was mentioned.
It still couldn't hide a hint of fear in its heart!
Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air in the main hall.
It was a handsome middle-aged man, exuding a chilling pressure from head to toe.
It was none other than the Soul Clan Chief, Hun Tiandi!
"Void, your concern is also my concern. The word Prodigy is not enough to describe this child, Gu Fei."
Hun Tiandi's voice was low and magnetic, yet it contained a hint of solemnity.
As the Hun Clan's master, he had always been arrogant and rarely showed himself.
Normally, Hun Tiandi would not easily appear.
After all, Hun Tiandi was one of the five strongest individuals on the Fighting Qi Continent a thousand years ago, only one step away from the Dou Di level.
With just a flick of his hand, he could shake the entire Continent.
However, at this moment, facing a young man who, at just over thirty years old, could rival an Eight Star Dou Sheng, even he couldn't help but be moved!
Thirty years old, Eight Star Dou Sheng.
It was unimaginable, and he had even created such a terrifying Dou Technique.
If this was allowed to continue...
"Our plan cannot be delayed any longer."
Void Swallowing Flame said in a deep voice, with a hint of urgency.
Previously, some abnormal actions by the Gu Clan had delayed the Hun Clan's grand scheme.
And now, Gu Fei's strong rise put immense pressure on the Hun Clan.
If Gu Fei were to grow to Nine-Star Dou Sheng...
Then the Hun Clan's advantage over the Gu Clan would not be as great as before.
Hun Tiandi's brows furrowed upon hearing this.
At this moment, a glint flashed in his deep, starry eyes.
"That kid is now displaying such Heaven-Defying talent; the Gu Clan will surely do everything in its power to protect him. It will be extremely difficult to kill him!"
A moment later, he slowly spoke.
This was indeed true.
After all, with that fellow Gu Yuan in charge, Gu Fei couldn't be touched for now.
"Let's stick to the previous plan and target the Spirit Race first. This race's Bloodline has weakened significantly, and the strongest among them is merely in the Early Stage of 7-Star."
Void Swallowing Flame fell into contemplation upon hearing this suggestion.
It seemed he hadn't expected Hun Tiandi to make such a decision.
Would Gu Fei just be allowed to continue like this?
However, at present, this was indeed the only way.
"Alright!"
Void Swallowing Flame's body leaned slightly forward, as if already impatient.
Indeed!
This move was a risky one.
Because of Gu Fei's rise, the Hun Clan could only choose to take a desperate risk!
The moment the two reached a consensus, the temperature of the entire hall suddenly dropped.
"In that case, let us unleash this storm!"
"Let the entire Continent witness the strength of my Hun Clan!"
Hun Tiandi's low voice carried a hint of excitement.
Upon hearing this, Void Swallowing Flame's massive body slowly ascended, black flames surging around him, as if to incinerate the entire hall.
"Spirit Race, let you be the appetizer!"
Void Swallowing Flame sneered.
Just then, the door to the main hall suddenly opened.
A man in a black robe quickly walked in; it was Hun Xuzi.
"Clan Chief, Lord Void, there's some bad news."
Hun Xuzi's voice trembled slightly.
Hun Tiandi and Void Swallowing Flame's expressions darkened simultaneously upon hearing this.
"Speak!"
Hun Tiandi coldly uttered a single word.
"The Gu Clan seems to be preparing to collect different flames for Gu Fei."
"Currently, the Gu Clan's people seem to have already started taking action."
"With the Gu Clan's strength, they will likely find many in a short time."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall instantly fell into a deathly silence.
Hun Tiandi and Void Swallowing Flame exchanged glances.
This was no small matter!
Previously, the Hun Clan's subordinates had brought back news that the power of the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus would continuously increase with the number of different flames.
Now, the Gu Clan was actually willing to spend so much manpower to find different flames for Gu Fei.
If Gu Fei obtained more different flames.
The power of the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus would definitely reach another level.
If this dragged on... "It seems we need to accelerate the annihilation of the Spirit Race."
"Three days! Within three days, I want to hear the news of the Spirit Race's demise!"
Hun Tiandi said in a deep voice, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Void, it's up to you!"
"Don't worry, I will personally take action this time and ensure not a single person escapes the Spirit Realm... As for Gu Yuan, you will need to hold him back!"
Void Swallowing Flame nodded, a fierce look in its dark eyes. (End of Chapter)
