Chapter 534: Refining Sky Ancient Formation

Xiao Ming remained indifferent when he heard these words. It was at this moment that the corpse next to him suddenly shook, and a faint soul body appeared.

As soon as this soul body appeared, it looked at Hun Tiandi with extreme anger.

"Hun Tiandi! You deserve to die!"

When Hun Tiandi saw Xiao Chen's soul body appear, he was somewhat surprised.

Even though he'd casually struck the dozen or so flame slaves before and hadn't specifically targeted their souls, those flame slaves had been eroded by the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame for who knows how many years. Their souls should have lost consciousness long ago. The fact that Xiao Chen's soul was still conscious was remarkable, showing a certain level of skill. He was worthy of belonging to the Xiao Clan, his old rival.

Xiao Ming cast a glance at the old man next to him, at his clenched fist and violently fluctuating soul body. He could tell the old man regretted not staying with the Xiao Clan.

But even if he had stayed with the clan, the Xiao Clan would have suffered the same fate. It wasn't because the Hun Clan was too powerful; rather, it was due to the Xiao Clan's somewhat rash actions at the time.

The Xiao Clan was the first Ancient Clan at the time. Although the Dou God Bloodline was in decline, the emergence of geniuses like Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen demonstrated that the Xiao Clan was not without strength and potential.

If Xiao Xuan hadn't gathered the entire clan and extracted the bloodline of every member of the Xiao Clan, causing the Xiao Clan's overall strength to decline, the Xiao Clan might not have fallen victim to the surprise attack of that turtle clan, the Hun Clan.

Of course, this could not be entirely blamed on Xiao Xuan. The extraction of the bloodlines had the unanimous approval of everyone. Everyone trusted Xiao Xuan, but they never thought about the need for Origin Qi to break through the Dou God realm. They also didn't consider what would happen if the breakthrough failed. Perhaps they did consider it; after all, there was an ally called the Gu Clan, but that ally proved to be quite untrustworthy.

Given Xiao Chen's trust in Xiao Xuan, it was likely that he, like other members of the Xiao Clan, would have returned only to become a source of blood and eventually die in the Hun Clan's surprise attack. At least he was alive now.

In fact, in Xiao Ming's eyes, Xiao Chen was still alive.

As long as there was a soul body, it wouldn't be difficult for Xiao Ming to resurrect Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen's body was still well preserved, and with his original body, Xiao Chen could even maintain the Xiao Clan Bloodline.

"Refining Sky Ancient Formation, activate!"

During the conversation, the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame made some sneaky movements. With a roar to the sky, his figure suddenly shot up into the sky. Countless milky-white fire lines shot out, eventually penetrating the entire Demonic Flame Realm.

As these fire lines shot deep into the realm, a deafening roar echoed through the space. Then, the three of them saw a colossal fire array, nearly tens of thousands of meters in size, slowly appearing in the empty sky...

"Young friend, rest assured. Nobody can defeat this old man within the Demonic Flame Realm. However, once you leave the Demonic Flame Realm, it will be up to you."

The words of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Saint didn't show much concern for Hun Tiandi. It was not for nothing that he was known as the expert closest to the Dou God Realm. He truly had the backbone.

Xiao Ming thought for a moment and did not respond immediately. Instead, he looked at the soul body beside him and said, "Ancestor Xiao Chen, I will put you away for now."

"... Hm."

Xiao Chen looked at this outstanding descendant he had met for the first time. Knowing that his soul body alone couldn't be of much help, he could only nod helplessly, not wanting to become a burden.

As soon as Xiao Chen nodded, Xiao Ming put both his body and soul away.

'Bastard!'

The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame was instantly enraged when he saw Xiao Ming ignoring him. However, for his own safety, he felt it necessary to endure this humiliation for now. He thought he could always take revenge later, once they were out.

But Hun Tiandi didn't give him another chance to speak. He had grown impatient. Although the time between Xiao Ming's appearance and the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame activating the Refining Sky Ancient Formation wasn't long, he didn't want to risk any more delays. What if that old guy, Gu Yuan, were to show up as well?

Although the possibility was small, Hun Tiandi had lost interest in continuing the conversation.

A deathly aura surrounded his finger, and then he pressed it down violently.

"Death Finger!"

A massive black finger shot out, ready to press down on the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.

Boom! Boom!

A terrifying wave of destruction surged down from the sky, overwhelming everything in its path.

Hun Tiandi wanted to deal with this weakling Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame first in order to prevent him from fleeing later. As a result, he was more serious this time.

As the target of the attack, the face of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame changed drastically.
