Chapter 616: Ying Huang and Yao Xiaotian, Defeated in a Single Strike
The strength of the Four Devil Saints of the Soul Clan was undeniable. Each of them was a Seven Star Dou Saint, placing them among the top powerhouses of the Dou Qi Continent. When they worked together, their combined might could even rival that of a Nine Star Dou Saint.
At this moment, endless black mist surged from their bodies, spreading out in all directions.
With their terrifying soul devouring ability, they rapidly absorbed the countless spirits left behind by Wu Tian's flames.
Their names Soul Tu, Soul Sha, Soul Jing, and Soul Yan were infamous across the land. When fighting together, they could match Void Swallowing Flame in power.
Although, within the Soul Clan, they still had to respectfully address him as "Lord Void", they did not fear him.
In fact, these four had always been a counterbalance to Void Swallowing Flame within the Soul Clan's hierarchy.
After Void Swallowing Flame's defeat against Wu Tian, the Four Devil Saints had even mocked him behind his back though they only dared do it once.
After all, despite their standing, they knew the truth without Void Swallowing Flame, the Soul Clan would not exist as it did today.
The clan's entire soul devouring technique originated from him.
Still, they weren't foolish enough to challenge him directly. If Void Swallowing Flame really got serious, their fate would be tragic.
Thus, after their brief moment of mockery, the four elders turned grim.
If they wanted to kill Wu Tian, they needed to find the perfect opportunity
A moment when he was outside his domain, away from his formations and reinforcements.
And now, with Wu Tian deep inside this ancient ruin, they finally had their chance.
However, they were not alone.
The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan had also sent their own Dou Saints to assist them.
Though, due to Qing Lin's interference, the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan's forces were thinner than expected.
Even so, one major figure had arrived
The current Clan Leader of the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan Yao Xiaotian!
Wu Tian's eyes gleamed with sharp interest.
"Well, well… You came straight to me, huh? Convenient."
If he could take down Yao Xiaotian here, then subjugating the entire Nine Nether Earth Python Clan would become effortless.
And if he could bring them under his rule…
The entirety of the Magic Beast clans would fall into his grasp.
Furthermore
The Ancient Sky Serpent…
The most supreme serpent beast of the Dou Qi Continent.
If he could uncover its secrets, the strength of the Serpent Clan and Cai Lin's forces would skyrocket.
As Wu Tian pondered, he turned his gaze to the four Devil Saints, who were still devouring souls.
"Even if you came prepared… what can you really do?"
With that thought, the hands he had kept behind his back slowly lifted.
Suddenly
The entire altar erupted in a blinding burst of nine colored light.
The holy radiance pierced through the ominous black mist, spreading in all directions.
At the same time
Wu Tian's aura surged explosively.
An overwhelming heatwave engulfed the entire Beast Spirit Barrier.
"Not good! He's going to kill everyone Attack now!"
The Four Devil Saints roared in alarm.
At their signal, the two Dou Saints from the Magic Beast clans finally stepped forward
Ying Huang of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
Yao Xiaotian of the Nine Nether Earth Python Clan.
Both were Mid One Star Dou Saints. Among Dou Saints, they were considered strong, but…
Their enemy was Wu Tian.
At Three Star Dou Saint, he completely outclassed them.
Even without using his full power, he could obliterate them in seconds.
As soon as his flames erupted, the difference in power became immediately apparent.
BOOM!
A terrifying explosion of blazing fire swept forward
The energy barrier protecting Ying Huang and Yao Xiaotian shattered instantly.
"Damn it ! How is he this strong?!"
Both Dou Saints coughed up blood, their expressions filled with shock and horror.
Their beast physiques were far superior to humans.
Normally, even against a Three Star Dou Saint, they could hold their own.
But Wu Tian was… different.
Much different.
They had assumed that after fighting Void Swallowing Flame, he would be weakened.
But
They were wrong. Completely wrong.
The moment their barrier collapsed, a wave of scorching flames engulfed their bodies.
"PFFT !!!"
Both of them spat out blood, their internal organs burning under the heat.
And behind them
Their subordinates… had all been erased.
Their small squads of elite fighters completely wiped out in a single blow.
Even Feng Xuan, the elder recognized by Feng Qing'er, was annihilated instantly.
His soul barely had time to escape before being burned away completely.
Now
Only Ying Huang and Yao Xiaotian remained.
They stood there, bloodied and terrified, surrounded by the ashes of their fallen kin.
For the first time in their lives, they felt fear.
"We've made a grave mistake…"
Ying Huang's gaze trembled, and his eyes landed on Feng Qing'er, who stood behind Wu Tian.
He finally understood.
The only reason he was still alive… was because of her.
"Lord Yan Sheng's strength is truly terrifying… It seems we, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, have overstepped…!"
Just as those words left his lips
"PUFF !!!"
Blood exploded from his chest.
His eyes bulged in shock as he was sent flying by a powerful strike.
But it wasn't Wu Tian who attacked.
It was
The Four Devil Saints!
"Weaklings like you couldn't even withstand a single strike."
"Why should we keep you alive?"
