Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 252 Gathering
"Haha, Chief Gu Yuan, little friend Xiao Yan, this time, my Yan clan has sent out all its elite troops."

Yan Jin smiled and cupped his hands towards Gu Yuan and Xiao Yan. Behind him, there were dozens of figures standing. These figures all had long and powerful auras, and they were obviously real strong men.

Xiao Yan's eyes just glanced casually, and then stopped behind Yan Jin, where there was an enchanting beauty in a red dress. The beauty had a charming smile on her face, and her graceful appearance made her look mature and attractive. However, Xiao Yan could tell at a glance that this beauty was the strongest person on the Yan clan except Yan Jin, and her strength had actually reached the level of a seven-star Dou Sheng, similar to the three immortals of the ancient way.

When Xiao Yan's gaze stayed on the beautiful woman, the latter seemed to have noticed something. She raised her beautiful eyes and a touching smile appeared on her cheek. There seemed to be a strange fluctuation in her eyes, and that fluctuation made people feel vaguely in a trance.

"Soul seduction technique?"

Xiao Yan was surprised by this kind of fluctuation. It was said that this was an ancient method of soul manipulation, which could control people secretly without anyone noticing. It could be called weird. However, this was generally only effective for people with weaker soul power than themselves. The soul realm of this beautiful woman was obviously only at the level of great perfection in the heavenly realm. It was ridiculous for a soul at this level to perform the so-called soul-luring technique in front of Xiao Yan.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, looking at the beautiful woman with a smile. An invisible pressure quietly spread out from between his eyebrows, and gently came into contact with the fluctuations emitted from the latter's eyes.

"laugh!"

With just a slight contact, the beautiful woman's strange fluctuations almost collapsed instantly, and her delicate body trembled violently. She looked at Xiao Yan with horror. Under that kind of pressure, her soul actually trembled.

"Emperor Realm Soul?"

This beautiful woman was also well-informed. She was shocked for a moment before she understood what was going on. She then had a look on her face as if she had seen a ghost and decided to retract her little actions.

"Haha, Xiao Yan, this is the Fire Spirit Elder of my Yan Clan." Yan Jin, who was standing by, also felt the pressure and laughed. Then he turned his head and smiled at the beautiful woman, "I told you a long time ago not to play with your soul power in front of Xiao Yan. It will only bring trouble to yourself, but you didn't believe me."

“Tsk, it’s the Fire Spirit Fairy, I don’t know the Fire Spirit Elder.” The beautiful woman curled her lips, then looked at Xiao Yan with a charming look, and chuckled, “I didn’t expect that at such a young age, he has actually reached the legendary Emperor Realm Soul. It really is true that appearance cannot be judged. The Xiao Clan had Xiao Xuan back then, and now it has Xiao Yan. It’s really a blessing from heaven for the Xiao Clan.”

Behind the Fire Spirit, the elders of the Yan Clan also looked at Xiao Yan in astonishment. Among their Yan Clan, not even the clan leader Yan Jin had reached the level of Emperor Realm Soul.

"Thank you, Fire Fairy. It was just a fluke."

Xiao Yan smiled. The word "fairy" made the smile on Huo Ling's face much brighter. It was obvious that she liked this kind of address very much.

"Everyone should understand what we are doing today, so I won't say much. You should all be aware of the Soul Clan's strength. If we fight, we must not underestimate the enemy and hope for the best!"

Hearing Gu Yuan speak, the people of the four tribes fell silent and nodded in agreement. The former was very famous among these ancient races, and his top strength as a late-stage Nine-Star Fighting Saint also made people feel awe.

"Now that you all understand, let's get going."

Seeing this, Gu Yuan looked at Xiao Yan, who also nodded slightly. Then he waved his hand, and in an instant, a lot of vast aura suddenly surged up in this space.

"go!"

As soon as the voice fell, Gu Yuan waved his sleeves, and a huge passage was torn open in the space in front of him. He took the lead and walked straight into it. Behind him, Xiao Yan and Xun'er, with solemn expressions, quickly followed. After that, the strong men of the four clans also filed in. When the last person entered, the space passage gradually dissipated.

When the ancient world's large army was dispatched, countless beams of light and shadows suddenly flew out from the Tianfu Alliance headquarters above Zhongzhou, and finally swept towards the northwest region of Zhongzhou.

With such a large number of powerful people from the Xingyun Pavilion Alliance, the entire Zhongzhou was in an uproar. Everyone understood that the only hostile force in Zhongzhou that could cause the Tianfu Alliance to come out in full force was the mysterious Soul Clan.
The shadow of the war shrouded Zhongzhou.

The Burial Sky Mountains are located in the northwest of Zhongzhou. People in Zhongzhou today may be unfamiliar with this area, but for some elders from ancient races, it is still well-known because this is also the place where the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan went to war. That battle once made Zhongzhou tremble.

Deep in the mountains, there is an ancient battlefield. The battlefield is extremely vast, and there are usually many monsters in it. It is considered a dangerous place, so it feels quite inaccessible.

Today's ancient battlefield seems a little weird. The many monsters that were rampant in the past have completely disappeared today. On the huge battlefield, not even the shadow of a monster can be seen. It looks like that. , as if they sensed the terrifying war that was about to break out here.

"Whoa!"

Even the roar of beasts was completely silent in the mountains. Suddenly, there was a large sound of breaking wind, and soon I saw a large number of shadows emerging from the edge of the sky. Finally, in a few flickers, It just appeared in this ancient battlefield.

"arrive."

Gu Yuan landed lightly on the ground, his eyes swept across the battlefield that had turned into ruins, with a slightly complicated look in his eyes. The war between the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan started from here. Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, the battle between them and the Soul Clan would also start from this place.

"Search the mountains."

As soon as they landed on the ground, many strong men from the four tribes rushed out and quickly searched the mountains to prevent the Soul Tribe from setting an ambush here first.

"It seems that the people from the Soul Clan haven't arrived yet." Yan Jin stepped forward, looked at the somewhat desolate ancient battlefield, and said.

Gu Yuan nodded slightly. Except for some magical beasts that were trembling due to their pressure, there was indeed no aura of strong soul clan members in the mountains.

"People from Xingyun Pavilion and the alliance have arrived." Xiao Yan suddenly raised his head and looked towards the northern sky with a smile. There, he could faintly smell the familiar aura fluctuations.

After hearing what Xiao Yan said, everyone looked in the direction, but they didn't see any shadow. However, no one questioned Xiao Yan's words at this time. Except for Gu Yuan, perhaps no one present could compete with Xiao Yan at the soul level. Under the gaze of everyone, not long after, the sound of breaking wind was heard in the northern sky, and then a dark mass of figures came violently, covering the sky and sweeping over. The number was actually no less than that of the four clans.

"It seems that the alliance has truly come out in full force this time." Looking at such a huge lineup, a hint of surprise flashed across Yan Jin and Lei Ying's eyes. Although in terms of elite troops, Xingyun Pavilion might still be somewhat inferior to the Yan and Lei clans, the number of these strong men has already reached a rather terrifying level.

"Haha, it seems that we are not too late."

Under the gaze of everyone, overwhelming black shadows quickly appeared above the mountain range, and then scattered down. The one in the lead was naturally Yao Lao. Behind him, not only were there strong men like Xiao Chen, but even the old man Danta and the old man Shennong followed together. It seemed that during this period of time, Yao Lao and the others had used many means to win over this old senior who had extremely high attainments in alchemy.

When the large forces met, there was naturally some awkward exchanges between the two sides. Patriarch Danta and Elder Shennong were somewhat familiar with the four tribes, and when they met now, they seemed quite talkative. As for Xiao Chen, he merely glanced at the people from the four tribes, and then walked towards Xiao Yan.

"Are you okay?"

Xiao Chen looked towards Xiao Yan, a smile appeared on his normally silent face, and he said.

Xiao Yan smiled at this relative who could be considered as his ancestor, and then nodded slightly. He did not tell Xiao Chen about Xiao Xuan's affairs right away. He understood that Xiao Chen and Xiao Xuan had a deep relationship, and if he knew this news, it would be a big blow to him. Therefore, it was not a bad thing to conceal it.

On the ancient battlefield, with the arrival of the Tianfu Alliance, the mountains suddenly became much more lively. In addition, outside the mountains, there were many powerful people from Zhongzhou who were attracted by the movement here. However, after arriving at the Zangtian Mountains, these people never dared to set foot in again, because they could feel that the aura gathered in the mountains at this moment had reached a terrifying level. If they were involved in this kind of battle, they would definitely die.
After the troops of both sides gathered together, they had a brief contact and then became alert again. Their spies spread out to cover the entire Burial Sky Mountains. Any movement here would be reported back to Xiao Yan and others immediately.

Time passed slowly as they waited. When the sun in the sky reached its zenith, Xiao Yan and Gu Yuan, who were sitting cross-legged on a huge rock, opened their eyes almost at the same time. Their deep voices made everyone's bodies suddenly tense up.

"coming."

As the two men finished their words, the mountains flashed into the sky, and suddenly layers of black fog emerged. The black fog lingered and finally turned into a huge space channel, and a series of vast and gloomy auras burst out.

Black mist surged in the sky, directly cutting off the sunlight. Suddenly, the temperature between heaven and earth dropped sharply, and a cold atmosphere filled the air.

"Haha, this Burial Heaven Mountains hasn't been this lively for many years."

In the sky, black mist billowed, and the figure of Soul Emperor appeared out of thin air. His eyes swept across the army below, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Behind Emperor Hun Tian, ​​Void Devouring Flame, the Four Demon Saints of the Soul Clan, and many powerful men of the Soul Clan also appeared. It seemed that the Soul Clan was also aware of today's situation, so quite a few powerful men were dispatched.

"Emperor Soul, return all the ancient jades of my four clans, otherwise I will be driven into your soul world in the future!"

Seeing Emperor Hun Tian show up, Lei Ying's face darkened and he shouted coldly. The theft of the ancient jade had always made him extremely angry, and now that they met, he naturally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart.

"Breaking into the Soul Realm, huh, perhaps no one in the world today has this ability." Facing Lei Ying's roar, Emperor Hun Tian smiled dumbly, and then ignored him, looking directly at Xiao Yan, and said lightly: "What is your plan? Use the ancient jade to exchange for people, or rob them by force?"

"I want to see my father!"

Xiao Yan stared at Emperor Hun Tian without giving in and said slowly.

Hearing this, Emperor Hun Tian glanced at Xiao Yan, then waved his hand. The space behind him suddenly rippled, and then there was the sound of iron chains. Then, a cage formed by black mist appeared in the sky. In the cage, an old figure was sitting cross-legged, with iron chains tightly wrapped around him like poisonous snakes.

Xiao Yan's eyes were fixed on the old figure when he appeared in the prison, and immediately, his body couldn't help but tremble violently.

Although it looked a little blurry, at the first glance, the blood flowing in Xiao Yan's body told him that the figure was indeed his father, Xiao Zhan!
Over the past few decades, the once high-spirited head of the family has turned into a white-haired old man. His originally tall and strong body has become skinny and emaciated over the past few decades. For decades, he has lived a life like a prisoner!

Xiao Yan's body was constantly trembling. Looking at the heavy iron chains on the old figure, waves of murderous intent surged crazily in his heart. His fists were clenched, and his fingertips dug deeply into his palms. Drops of blood dripped down between his fingers.

"Emperor Hun, if I have the chance one day, I will wipe out every last one of the Hun clan!"

Xiao Yan's bloodshot eyes suddenly turned to Emperor Hun Tian, ​​and his voice was hoarse and low. At the same time, incomparably terrifying soul fluctuations were centered on his body and spread out in waves. Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder roared.

"Emperor Realm Soul?!"

When the soul fluctuation emerged, the expressions of those Soul Clan warriors who were about to sneer at Xiao Yan suddenly froze. Even the Soul Emperor's face finally changed. Obviously, he had not expected that in just half a month, Xiao Yan's soul power had advanced by leaps and bounds to such a level.

"What a great Xiao Yan."

Emperor Hun Tian’s voice was low, with a hint of murderous intent flowing in it. Now, Xiao Yan finally made him feel threatened.

"Xiao Xiaoyan?"

In the prison cell, the old figure who was bound by iron chains suddenly trembled violently because of Emperor Hun Tian's words. He slowly raised his head, and his turbid eyes shot out, finally stopping on the black-clothed young man floating in the air not far away. In an instant, his body stiffened, and tears almost rolled out of his eyes immediately. His hoarse and old voice made people feel extremely sad.

"Yan Yan Er"
