292: The crisis of the spirit race!

Looking at Ling Xi's joyful expression, Gu Fei secretly calculated in his heart.

This trip back to the Spirit Realm, besides allowing Ling Xi to visit her relatives, was also an opportunity to observe the situation of the Spirit Clan.

If the Hun Clan truly intended to attack the Spirit Clan, preparations had to be made in advance.

However, for Ling Xi, this was genuine happiness from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Fei naturally understood that this girl's parents had both passed away.

She had been raised by her aunt since she was a child.

Although this girl never mentioned going back to visit, Gu Fei knew it was time for her to return.

"Get ready; we'll depart soon."

Gu Fei said softly to Ling Xi.

Ling Xi nodded, then turned to pack her luggage.

Gu Fei watched her retreating figure, a complex look flashing in his eyes.

No matter what, he would not let the Hun Clan succeed.

Even if it was for his beloved disciple, he had to go to the Spirit Realm. The Spirit Realm seemed like a secluded paradise shrouded in Immortal Qi.

Here, mountains were verdant, waters clear, birds sang, flowers bloomed, and a Spiritual Qi permeated everywhere.

Surrounded by mountains, peaks rose and fell, and streams babbled through valleys, sparkling in the sunlight.

Among these mountains, one particularly towering peak stood out.

It resembled a long sword pointing directly at the sky, proudly standing at the summit of the mountains.

At this moment, at the peak of this mountain, stood a man and a woman.

The woman wore an elegant white dress, her dark hair like a waterfall, her skin as fair as snow, and a pair of almond-shaped eyes that were clear and bright, exuding an air of nobility and elegance.

This woman was Ling Lu, Ling Xi's aunt.

Beside Ling Lu was a middle-aged man.

He wore a green robe, with a handsome face and picturesque features, radiating a scholarly and refined Aura.

This man was Ling Qingshan, Ling Lu's husband.

Both of them had considerable cultivation. Ling Lu had reached the Advanced Half-Saint Realm, and Ling Qingshan also possessed the strength of a 1-Star Dou Sheng.

The reason for saying their cultivation was not low had a basis.

Across the entire continent, such cultivation was naturally not considered much.

But within the entire Spirit Realm, such cultivation was definitely considered excellent.

At this moment, the two stood at the mountain peak, gazing into the distance, their faces showing a hint of emotion.

"Qingshan, have you heard? Young Clan Leader Gu Fei of the Gu Clan has now reached the Realm of a Seven-Star Dou Sheng!"

Ling Lu suddenly spoke, her tone filled with admiration.

"I've heard. To possess the cultivation of a Seven-Star Dou Sheng at such a young age, Young Clan Leader Gu Fei is truly a Prodigy among Prodigies!"

"Moreover, I recently heard that Young Clan Leader Gu Fei has created another very powerful Dou Technique."

"Our Xi'er being able to become his disciple means her future is boundless."

Ling Qingshan nodded, also filled with admiration.

Indeed, Gu Fei's current cultivation had already reached the level of old monsters like the Spirit Clan Chief.

One must know that within the entire Spirit Clan, there were only a dozen or so powerhouses with Dou Sheng cultivation.

For such a small clan to establish a connection with the Young Clan Leader of the Gu Clan was a tremendous honor.

Since ancient times, the continent had been a place where the strong preyed on the weak, and it was difficult for small clans like the Spirit Clan to protect themselves.

Now, establishing a connection with the Gu Clan held profound significance for the entire Spirit Clan!!!

Thinking of this, a trace of relief and pride flashed in Ling Lu's eyes.

"This girl has been staying with the Gu Clan for a long time. Shouldn't we go and see her?"

Ling Lu looked into the distance and said softly.

As Ling Xi's relatives, Ling Lu and Ling Qingshan, though they had entrusted Ling Xi to Gu Fei, always worried about the little girl in their hearts.

The couple had no children of their own for so many years.

In their hearts, Ling Xi was like their own daughter.

"Alright, then tomorrow we will set off for the Ancient World to see Xi'er."

Ling Qingshan also nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Just as the two were discussing, the sky suddenly became overcast, dark clouds rolled, and strong winds arose. The entire Spirit Realm seemed to be enveloped in darkness.

"Hehehe."

A sinister and eerie laugh came from the sky, echoing among the mountains, sending shivers down one's spine.

"What's going on?"

The members of the Spirit Clan looked up at the sky, their faces filled with shock and uncertainty.

Several Dou Sheng Elders quickly flew into the sky, standing ready, vigilantly watching the anomaly in the distance.

From deep within the dark clouds, a dark figure slowly emerged, tall and radiating a powerful Aura. Upon closer inspection, it was Hun Xuzi of the Hun Clan!

"Hun Xuzi, how dare you trespass into my Spirit Realm!"

A middle-aged man in a green robe roared, taking the lead and attacking Hun Xuzi.

However, facing the attack of this 5-Star Dou Sheng, Hun Xuzi merely sneered and easily repelled him with a casual wave. The middle-aged man screamed, his body falling like a kite with a broken string, clearly severely injured.

"A mere 5-Star Dou Sheng dares to be presumptuous in front of me? Get lost!"

Hun Xuzi's gaze was cold, his tone full of disdain.

"Hun Xuzi, you are the one being presumptuous!"

"You trespassed into my Spirit Realm, what is your intention?"

"Do you truly think my Spirit Clan has no one?"

Just as Hun Xuzi was being arrogant, a clear but authoritative voice suddenly rang out.

As soon as the voice fell, a white figure arrived in mid-air, landing opposite Hun Xuzi.

This woman had white hair.

Although showing traces of age, her face and skin appeared exceptionally delicate.

Especially her eyes, which were bright and piercing, exuding wisdom and authority.

This woman was Ling Yuan, the Clan Chief of the Spirit Clan, whose cultivation had reached the Middle Stage of the Seven-Star Dou Sheng Realm.

Hun Xuzi naturally recognized this person.

"Ling Yuan, you are indeed worthy of being a Clan Chief; you certainly have some tricks up your sleeve."

Hun Xuzi snorted coldly, not taking Ling Yuan's questioning seriously.

Ling Yuan looked at Hun Xuzi coldly, and with a casual wave, an invisible force swept out, forcing Hun Xuzi back several steps.

Within the Dou Sheng Realm, each advancement across a Realm was like crossing a chasm.

In other words, compared to a Six-Star Dou Sheng and a Seven-Star Dou Sheng, their strengths were vastly different.

Hun Xuzi, being in the Late Stage of Six-Star, was naturally no match.

Hun Xuzi's expression changed slightly, but he quickly reverted to his arrogant demeanor.

His confidence naturally stemmed from a hidden hand he possessed.

Who would have thought that my Hun Xuzi's strength had already surpassed Six-Star and entered the Early Stage of 7-Star!

"However, that's all there is to it!"

The next moment, Hun Xuzi sneered.

As Hun Xuzi's voice fell, a powerful pressure instantly swept across the entire scene.

Hun Xuzi quickly formed hand seals, and the Dou Qi within his body surged out.

In an instant, his Aura sharply increased.

Immediately, the powerful Dou Qi caused strong winds to rage.

The gravel under his feet was blown away.

"What!"

"This is impossible."

"This Hun Xuzi is actually an Early Stage 7-Star!"

The 5-Star Dou Sheng powerhouse of the Spirit Clan who had been repelled murmured, his eyes full of surprise. (End of this chapter)
