Fighting: Practice makes it real, start with a poisonous body.

Chapter 313 Thunder Realm, Broken
At the gate of the Thunder Realm, the saints of the Ancient Thunder Clan stood frozen in place.

The overwhelming imperial pressure emanating from the son of the dragon and phoenix was like Mount Tai pressing down on them, making it difficult for them to even breathe.

Lei Ying's expression was ashen. The Dragon-Phoenix Son had defeated the Void Devouring Flame in the Medicine Realm and already possessed the combat power of a nine-star Dou Sheng. Coupled with that strange and powerful remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor, their group today was likely in grave danger...

Just then, a calm voice slowly emanated from the magnificent palanquin high in the sky, clearly echoing in every corner of the Tianheng Mountains.

"Your gates are wide open, your red attire adorned, you appear here to welcome me?"

Upon hearing this, the entire mountain range fell into a deathly silence.

All the powerful figures held their breath, their eyes fixed on the chariot floating above Dragon Island, a sense of fear rising in their hearts.

Inside the giant crater in the mountain range, Xiao Yan subconsciously lowered his breath, his Adam's apple bobbing violently.

If only the Dragon-Phoenix Child and the Leigu clan were to fight each other, he might still have a chance to rescue Xun'er...

"Let's go! Back to the Thunder Realm!"

Suddenly, Lei Ying shouted angrily.

To confront the son of the dragon and phoenix in the wild is tantamount to courting death!
Only by retreating to the Thunder Realm and relying on the protection of the Thunder Emperor's Great Array could they possibly put up a fight!

"Yes!"

The saints instantly realized what was happening, hurriedly activated their holy power, and rushed back to the gate of the Thunder Realm.

But just as they moved, a faint, mocking voice came from high above again: "Do you really think I, with my compassionate heart, would let you go back safely?"

"Shh-!"

Before the words were even finished, a banner that was entirely purple-black with eerie black energy swirling around its edges shot out of the sedan chair!

“Hoo, hoo, hoo—!”

In an instant, a fierce wind arose in the Tianheng Mountains, and the eerie wind howled and raged for thousands of miles!
Countless guests who came to celebrate were swept away by this sudden gust of cold wind. Before they could even scream, they were instantly turned into skeletons scattered all over the ground.

The remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor slowly emerged from the sky, its face twisted and ferocious. Against the backdrop of the eerie wind, it resembled a demon crawling out of hell, exuding a chilling aura.

"Roar--!"

He roared to the sky, and his right hand suddenly condensed into a terrifying ball of light containing destructive power, which he smashed fiercely towards the gate of the Thunder Realm!

"not good!"

Gu Yuan's expression changed drastically, and he shouted sharply, "Attack together!"

"it is good!"

The saints dared not be negligent in the slightest, and instantly unleashed their full cultivation. Golden light and lightning intertwined and collided, transforming into a huge energy barrier, which fiercely blasted towards the terrifying ball of light!
Among them, Gu Yuan and Lei Ying unleashed the most powerful forces, and they were the only remaining hope in Gu Lei's camp at this moment!
"Boom——!"

A deafening roar resounded as two terrifying energies collided violently before the gate of the Thunder Realm. The raging energy shockwaves swept outwards, causing the space itself to tremble violently.

Moments later, the energy dissipated, and the ball of light and the barrier vanished simultaneously.

Gu Yuan staggered back several steps, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

In his current severely injured state, he simply cannot withstand a high-intensity battle against an expert of the same realm! He must immediately retreat to the Thunder Realm to heal!
"Roar--!"

The remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor stared intently at the survivors, his empty eyes filled with greed.

He flashed, transforming into a blurry ghostly figure, roaring as he pounced on the enemy once more!

"Oh no! We can't hold off the second wave of attacks!" Lei Ying exclaimed in horror.

A ruthless glint flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes. Without hesitation, he grabbed Gu Lie, who was protecting him, and shoved him into the air.

"Gu Lie, you cover our retreat!"

"Wait, clan leader!"

Gu Lie's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief and astonishment. He never expected that Gu Yuan would sacrifice him to buy time and block the remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor!
He had no time to think any further, for the remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor had already reached him!
Gu Lie gritted his teeth, a resolute glint in his eyes, and swung his giant axe, gathering all his strength to fiercely slash at the remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor.

However, his power was no match for the remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor; it was like throwing an egg against a rock!
"Roar--!"

The remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor opened its mouth and exhaled a breath of black energy, which instantly shattered the giant axe in Gu Lie's hand.

Then he stretched out his large hand and grabbed Gu Lie's body tightly in his hand as if he were grabbing an ant, and then suddenly exerted force!

"Pfft-!"

Gu Lie's flesh and blood exploded instantly, splattering blood everywhere and creating a bloody storm in the sky!
Then, a terrified soul suddenly flew out, frantically burning its soul power, tearing through the void in an attempt to escape!

"Roar--!"

The remnant soul of the Medicine Emperor opened its mouth, and a terrifying suction force suddenly erupted, instantly sucking the soul into its belly. It slowly chewed it, a look of enjoyment on its face!

"So strong... Just one star difference, and I'm completely powerless to fight back."

In the deep crater of the mountain range, Xiao Yan stared dumbfounded at the bloody and cruel scene before him, his heart utterly shocked.

Gu Lie, once a top expert of the ancient clan, was so easily killed!

"That's normal... cough cough, that's the difference between the Saint Realm."

Beside Xiao Yan, Xiao Xuan weakly raised his head, staring at the terrifying figure of the Medicine Emperor's remnant soul.

"The former Medicine Emperor has now become a henchman of the Dragon and Phoenix Son... The Ancient Clan and the Thunder Clan are doomed."

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head sharply to look at the gate of the Thunder Realm. Although Gu Lie was dead, he had bought Gu Yuan and the others a moment to escape!
At this moment, Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and other powerful figures have all stepped into the Thunder Realm, and the silver gate is slowly closing!

Xiao Xuan's face showed a complicated expression. He said, "Gu Yuan is cold-blooded and ruthless. Perhaps his cold heart has actually had an effect?"

"not good!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat.

Once the Thunder Realm is completely closed, he will completely lose the chance to save Xun'er!
"Boom——!"

At this critical moment, the curtains of the magnificent carriage that was quietly floating above Dragon Island were suddenly lifted!

A strange purple light burst forth from it, shooting straight into the sky!
Su Yun, dressed in a purple robe, stood high in the air with his hands behind his back, gripping a blood-gold longsword tightly in his hand. His eyes were indifferent, and with a sudden flick of his wrist, he swung the sword out!

"Clang, clang, clang—!"

A strange, blood-gold sword light suddenly took shape, carrying endless killing intent and the resentment of the imperial bloodline, like a world-destroying sword from the abyss, tearing through the sky!

Just as the gate to the Thunder Realm was about to close completely, the sword light struck down heavily!
"Tear-!"

The power of space instantly went berserk, and the silver portal that was about to close was instantly destroyed! The supposedly indestructible boundary of the Thunder Realm was forcibly cleaved open, creating a huge rift a hundred feet long!
Behind the gate, Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, and the others stared in horror at the crack that pierced through the boundary wall, their bodies ice-cold.
