Chapter 542: The Secret of the Hun Clan



Chapter 542: The Secret of the Hun Clan

Xiao Ming's thoughts were unknown to figures like Gu Yuan and the others. Otherwise, their current discussion would not only be about how to deal with the Hun Clan, but also how to get rid of Xiao Ming.

Although Xiao Ming was very young, he had already reached the high-star Dou Saint stage. To be targeted by such a person was a terrifying prospect to think about.

Even if Xiao Ming had reservations and refrained from taking action, his age advantage alone could outlast these old folks. On top of that, his own strength was rapidly increasing.

The Gu, Lei, and Yan Clans might also have some reservations about Xiao Ming, but with the Hun Clan, this mighty enemy, knocking at their doors, they had no time for additional concerns.

Perhaps they would find the time to think about how to deal with Xiao Ming once they had dealt with the Hun Clan.

Therefore, figures such as Gu Yuan and the other Clan Chiefs were still focused on dealing with the Hun Clan for now.

Gu Yuan and the others chatted for a while in the center of the hall. When the topic of conversation turned to the strength of the Hun Clan, Xiao Ming, who had been relatively unconcerned, suddenly spoke up.

"I wonder if Clan Head Gu has ever heard of the so-called Tunling Clan (Devouring Spirit Clan)?"

Crack crack!

The sound of many wine glasses shattering instantly resounded in the hall as Xiao Ming's words fell. Many elders suddenly raised their heads, their eyes fixed on Xiao Ming. There was a hint of fear in their eyes.

"Tunling Clan..."

Gu Yuan's face twitched slightly as Xiao Ming uttered these words. Then he took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Ming with a hint of doubt, and said, "I certainly know about the Tunling Clan. It was a strange clan from ancient times. According to ancient records, this Tunling Clan once caused countless storms of bloodshed on the Dou Qi Continent. Why are you asking about them?"

"Clan Head Gu should know that the Hun Clan possesses the Nihility Devouring Flame, right?"

"Hm, I once fought against the Nihility Devouring Flame and dealt him a heavy blow. There was no news of him after that. He's probably still recovering from his injuries," Gu Yuan nodded and replied.

Xiao Ming chuckled and said, "As you know, the inheritance of the Ancient Clans is based on the bloodline strength. If the bloodline strength within a clan is depleted, they would become no different from ordinary people. In general, every Ancient Clan will go through a period where their bloodline strength diminishes. Of course, this assumption is based on the premise that no Dou God-level powerhouses have appeared within the clan in the meantime."

"As far as I know, the Nihility Devouring Flame once devoured the King of the Tunling Clan. The Hun Clan's seemingly endless bloodline strength over the years has something to do with this. In return, the Nihility Devouring Flame has been nourished by the Hun Clan."

"The Hall of Souls is the result of these efforts, an organization set up by the Hun Clan to collect soul essences for the Nihility Devouring Flame's breakthrough into the Emperor Realm soul. Now that the Hun Clan has made its move, it is likely that the Nihility Devouring Flame has regained its strength and broken through to the nine-star Dou Saint, or even broken through to the Emperor Realm in terms of soul cultivation..."

"This also means that the Hun Clan has two nine-star Dou Saints."

When these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed.

A nine-star Dou Saint with an Emperor Realm soul and a nine-star Dou Saint without one were two completely different things.

The former could easily suppress the latter.

Although Nihility Devouring Flame's connection to the Hun Clan was no secret, no one could have imagined that he could break through to the Nine-Star Stage and even cultivate an Emperor Realm Soul.

There was no doubt about Xiao Ming's words. After all, he was the leader of a large faction and had had several encounters with the Hun Clan. It was only natural that he would have some information in his hands.

Xiao Ming had previously warned them, but they chose not to listen.

"I remember that the last King of the Tunling Clan was indeed killed by the Hun Clan. Since then, the Tunling Clan has completely disappeared from the world. The Hun Clan, however, continues to exist to this day. I never expected them to have such an opportunity," Gu Yuan's expression also turned solemn.

"After the rare appearance of the Dou God Powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent, those ancient clans declined or disappeared one by one. Among them, the way some clans disappeared was quite mysterious. Now that I think about it, it's similar to what the Shi and Ling Clans experienced..."

"In this way, I understand how the Hun Clan was able to evade our detection," Gu Yuan said. He lightly drew a circle in front of him with his finger, then held it in his hand and said, "This is because the Nihility Devouring Flame has swallowed the entire realm into his body..."

"Hiss..."

Many people in the hall inhaled a breath of cold air upon hearing this. Swallowing an entire realm into one's body? Was that really something a human could do?

"He's not a human..."

Gu Yuan smiled calmly, but there was a hint of cold light in his eyes.

"It seems that in the years since the last battle, he has become more proficient in the use of Devouring Power. Back then, it might have been difficult for him to perform such methods. It seems that his strength has indeed improved significantly, probably breaking through to the Nine-Star Stage..."

Gu Yuan's almost casual words also confirmed the accuracy of Xiao Ming's information.

A nine-star Dou Saint was the most elite existence in this world. Two nine-star Dou Saints, even the Gu Clan couldn't compare to that.

The hall fell silent at this revelation. No one spoke again. None of them had expected the Hun Clan to be hiding something like this. Had it not been for Xiao Ming, they feared they would have been kept in the dark.

Xiao Ming looked at the solemn expressions on their faces and didn't have much to say. He was providing the Three Clans with information to prevent them from being wiped out by the Hun Clan at the first encounter. If they were to be wiped out, how could his plan be carried out?

After a while, Xiao Ming began to reveal more information.

This time, he revealed a giant black gate filled with a mysterious aura that drew everyone's attention.

"Is this the legendary Deathly Silence Gate?"

Some with keen eyesight recognized the gate and immediately exclaimed.

Xiao Ming nodded, "It is indeed the Deathly Silence Gate. I took it from an eight-star elder of the Hun Clan. As far as I know, the Hun Clan has multiple Deathly Silence Gates, and multiple Deathly Silence Gates can form the Death World Formation."

With this revelation, Xiao Ming once again silenced everyone.

The Death World Formation was a great formation that was known throughout the continent in ancient times. By creating four Deathly Silence Gates, it would be possible to form a deathly world. The experts trapped inside would be completely enveloped by the endless deathly aura and would gradually die. This would be the case even if they were a seven-star or eight-star Dou Saint.

In ancient times, there were rumors that powerful sects and factions had been annihilated by this deathly formation.

Xiao Ming was now suggesting that the Hun Clan might want to form a Death World Formation to deal with them.

If Xiao Ming hadn't mentioned it and they suddenly encountered such a formation, the top experts might be able to withstand it, but those with slightly weaker strength would suffer tremendous losses. The extent of those losses was something they couldn't afford.

For a brief moment, the Ancient Clan members' gazes towards Xiao Ming were filled with gratitude. They had no idea that Xiao Ming was merely setting them up for a clash with the Hun Clan while reaping the benefits for himself.
