Battle Through the Heavens: Reap the Red Lotus Karmic Flame at the Start

"Hehe..."

A non-human voice came from the huge black humanoid body, and then the body shrank further, eventually becoming the size of Xiao Yan and Qing Lin, only slightly larger, with a more flamboyant and rougher outline.

It simultaneously conjured up a head, limbs, and a mouth with fine fangs that were extremely unsettling to look at. The upper half of its face still had those several blood-red eyes.

During this process, Xiao Yan and Qing Lin were completely overwhelmed by this power. Not to mention circulating their Dou Qi, even breathing became extremely difficult. At the same time, they dared not leave. It seemed that the Void Devouring Flame had intended to do just that, but it had immediately grabbed them and their fate was now unknown.

The next moment, the man in black opened his hand, and the Void Devouring Flame had shrunk several times, turning into a rising black flame, which he controlled directly in his hand.

"You have the aura of my people within you."

At this moment, the enormous figure in the sky finally spoke. The voice was extremely strange and demonic, sounding neither male nor female, but also like a dozen people speaking the same sentence simultaneously, accompanied by an extremely fine buzzing sound. Just listening to the sound for a moment would make one feel dizzy.

"What the hell are you?!"

At this moment, the Void Devouring Flame felt the same powerlessness as Xiao Yan had felt before, unable to unleash any of its power and completely at the mercy of the dark figure before it. It felt even more desperate, for it vaguely guessed the origin of this thing.

"According to your world's terminology, you can call me the Holy Race's Envoy. Soon, I will take control of your world and become its true ruler!"

The black-clad figure spoke in a cryptic manner, and the aura emanating from him reminded Xiao Yan of someone: Lu Huangtian, the sect leader of the Xuanwen Sect whom he had encountered in the Northwest Region of the continent. Although he was perhaps a thousand times stronger than Lu Huangtian, the nauseating aura he exuded was of the same origin.

Xiao Yan's mind raced instantly. According to the Void Emperor, Lu Huangtian was not from the Dou Qi Continent, but came from another world. So, the monster in front of him might also be from another world.

The Void Emperor once asked Xiao Yan to fulfill his condition and fill the gap in the Dou Qi Continent, but Xiao Yan has never been able to do so. Could it be that this person came from the gap?

The next moment, the person appeared in front of Xiao Yan and Qing Lin, and Xiao Yan's pupils suddenly contracted. Almost instinctively, his whole body tensed up, but in the next instant, boundless binding power locked him in from all directions.

Qinglin, standing to the side, was in the same state; her delicate body was stiff, and not even her fingertips could tremble in the slightest. In front of this person who had suddenly appeared, they were like infants, no, even less than infants, utterly powerless to fight back.

"I need some helpers now that I've arrived here, and you two are very lucky!"

"Become my loyal servants; this is your only way to survive!"

Looking at the powerful figure so close at hand, Xiao Yan felt a surge of inexplicable disgust. Coupled with the fact that he had been relentlessly pursued by the Void Devouring Flame without even getting a chance to catch his breath, he was seething with anger.

Xiao Yan retorted without hesitation, "Go to hell, Holy Clan envoy! Who do you think you are? You're an eyesore! Get the hell out of my sight!"

Generally speaking, Xiao Yan doesn't like to verbally abuse others, but facing this guy who almost disgusted him from the bottom of his heart, Xiao Yan didn't have any extra pleasantries. Xiao Yan couldn't maintain his composure; only by using the most direct and brutal language to curse the guy in front of him could he slightly vent the hatred in his heart.

The black mist figure seemed to pause for a moment, its blood-red eyes shifting slightly, as if trying to understand the overly straightforward language of this other world.

"In this world's language, you are insulting me, so you may all die!"

The man's voice was devoid of any emotion, but after he finished speaking, he spread his hands, and the black mist instantly enveloped Xiao Yan and Qing Ling. This black mist was even able to directly break through the defense of the Void Devouring Flame and capture it.

Xiao Yan and Qing Ling were in extremely poor condition. If the black mist could touch them, there would be absolutely no chance of survival. However, the next moment, a sudden change occurred.

"Get the hell out of my way, you filthy scum from outside the mainland!"

A thunderous voice suddenly rang out, powerful and domineering, containing an extremely strong and masculine power. After entering Xiao Yan and Qing Lin's ears, it actually cleared away most of the negative emotions in their hearts.

After that sound rang out, the pressure that Xiao Yan and Qing Lin were facing vanished without a trace, and they regained control of their bodies.

A pure blue-white lightning bolt tore through space without warning and appeared in front of Xiao Yan and Qing Lin. It then transformed into a lifelike ancient lightning dragon and lashed out. Faced with such an attack, the black mist figure was already losing his balance. He was hit hard by this force and was forced back dozens of feet with a muffled thud, his figure blurring and swaying.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...

A series of deafening roars rang out, eventually reaching a total of eleven. Xiao Yan felt as if some colossal creature was awakening underground.

Xiao Yan and Qing Lin looked up and saw that each boom was accompanied by a beam of light. The colors of the beams were completely different, but each one was extremely powerful and majestic, a power that surpassed that of a Dou Sheng!

Finally, along with the initial bolt of lightning, twelve towering figures emerged within the pillar of light, forming a ring that subtly surrounded the black mist figure at its center. These twelve figures were not entirely solid; some appeared slightly ethereal.

The leader, surrounded by wildly dancing lightning snakes and swirling electric sparks, was the very one who had just intervened to save them. Among the other figures, some had soul power surging like an ocean, some were surrounded by the fragrance of medicine, some were engulfed in crimson flames that illuminated half the sky, and some were surrounded by ice crystals that caused the air to freeze into frost... Their attributes varied, and their appearances were ever-changing.

"Old Lei's temper is still as fiery as ever, even after ten thousand years; but he's quick to strike!"

"Haha, that's what I was saying. The younger generation of the Xiao clan is in danger, why is he, a Dou Di of the Lei clan, so anxious?"

"We have long since left this world and should no longer have any concept of family. The continent is now full of our descendants. How can we sit idly by when our descendants are in trouble?"

"Regardless of the circumstances, these inhuman and ghostly extraterrestrial evils should be annihilated!"

Of the twelve figures that appeared, the only one Xiao Yan recognized was the Void Emperor, whom he had met once before. Among the other unfamiliar figures, there was another person whose aura was very similar to that of the Spirit Clan's Dou Di Ancestor, whom he had met in the Spirit Realm.
