Chapter 247: Why Isn't the Gu Clan Seizing the Demonic Flame?
"Let's all make our move..."
Gu Fei smiled and glanced at the others. He then mobilized a large amount of Dou Qi and channeled it into the formation created by Hun Miesheng.
The other five Dou Saint experts from the ancient clans also increased their Dou Qi input.
"Do you think you can seal me? Dream on!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame began to counterattack fiercely.
This made the faces of Hun Miesheng and the seven, including Gu Fei, turn grim.
"Everyone, fight with all you got!"
Hun Miesheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. A fierce look appeared on his otherwise ordinary face. He bit his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood into the light beam.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
As the seven fought desperately, the light beam's intensity suddenly increased.
The massive body of the Demonic Flame began to shrink rapidly under the formation's energy.
"Demon Sealing Array, seal!"
Seeing this, Hun Miesheng was overjoyed. His hand seals changed rapidly, and with a fierce shout, the black formation quickly transformed into a black pillar about ten feet in diameter. Within the pillar, a milky-white flame slowly rose, emitting a terrifyingly extreme temperature that spread quietly.
"Success..."
Seeing this, Huo Yao and the others breathed a sigh of relief. At least their lives were no longer in danger.
With the Demonic Flame sealed by the formation, a brief silence fell in the sky.
"Hehe, this collaboration has been truly enjoyable. The demonic flame is finally sealed, saving the beings of the Central Plains from disaster. Thank you!"
After adjusting his breath, Hun Miesheng laughed heartily and cupped his hands to Gu Fei and the others.
"This guy... is he planning to seize the demonic flame now?"
Gu Fei had already guessed Hun Miesheng's intentions.
Although he still had some energy left, he pretended to be severely depleted.
He also sent a message to Gu Nanhai, who was watching from afar, indicating that he should not attempt to seize the demonic flame and should just watch.
"Okay!"
Gu Nanhai, though puzzled, trusted Gu Fei's judgment.
"Ha ha, thank you all for today. My clan will remember this favor!"
Hun Miesheng, as expected, did not disappoint Gu Fei's suspicions and soon reached for the black pillar in the sky.
"Miss Xun'er, the Young Clan Leader has specifically instructed that the demonic flame must
not be seized!"
Gu Nanhai explained.
"Must not be seized?"
Hearing this explanation, Xun'er again thought that Gu Fei must have instructed Gu Nanhai to
protect her, which was why...
"The Young Clan Leader must have his reasons. We should not act recklessly!"
Gu Nanhai added.
On the other side, a nearby Central Plains expert had seized the black pillar.
"Ha ha, I've obtained the essence of the demonic flame!" The person laughed excitedly.
However, before his laughter had fully echoed, nearly ten fierce gusts of wind struck him
mercilessly.
"Bang!"
Under such concentrated attacks, this advanced half-saint expert did not even have a chance
to scream before he was killed.
"Get out of the way!"
The two Hun Clan members arrived and, with their strength, easily overpowered everyone
else.
Hun Feng, though only a late-stage two-star Dou Saint, had combat power comparable to an ordinary three-star Dou Saint. With just a few moves, he killed over ten surrounding experts. "Hehe, the essence of the demonic flame now belongs to my Hun Clan..."
Hun Feng, holding the black pillar, showed a hint of ecstatic joy. He hadn't expected the seizure of the essence to go so smoothly.
Even with two four-star Dou Saints from the Gu clan, in the end, they still gained the benefit. "Damn it, we can't let the demonic flame fall into the Hun Clan's hands!"
At this moment, the four-star Dou Saint experts who had fought the Demonic Flame were extremely angry but could not act immediately.
After defeating the Demonic Flame, they were mostly weakened and needed to recover.
"Young Master Gu Fei, doesn't your clan have Elder Nanhai? Why hasn't he made a move to
seize it?"
Huo Yao looked at Gu Fei in surprise.
As he spoke, the other Dou Saint experts from various clans also looked curious. Gu Nanhai, who had not participated in the previous battle and was in the best condition among them, should have seized the opportunity if he acted.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
