In the Gu Realm...
Gu Fei took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes. A look of joy radiated from his handsome face, and his eyes gleamed with wisdom.
His soul had successfully broken through!
Everything was still on time!
"I've finally reached the God-level Soul!"
"Hun Clan! It's time to settle our score!"
He murmured to himself, feeling unable to hold back any longer. At that moment, he could clearly sense that his soul power had grown by more than a hundredfold compared to before.
It felt as if the entire world was now under his control.
Countless profound laws of the Great Dao flowed through his mind, giving him a deeper understanding of the mysteries of heaven and earth.
Standing up, Gu Fei gazed into the distance. A gentle breeze brushed through his hair, bringing a slight chill. Clouds surrounded the mountain peak, while faraway mountain ranges stretched endlessly, presenting a vast, majestic view.
"It's time to go," he said softly, determination flashing in his eyes.
Gu Fei turned and walked towards his dwelling halfway down the mountain, intending to bid farewell to his family. His greatest concern now was his wife and children.
When he opened the door, he saw Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin packing their things. His two children, Xian Yue and Wushuang, were helping out as well.
"We're all ready," Xiao Yi Xian said gently, lifting her head to look at him.
He nodded and crouched down in front of his two children.
"I will be leaving for a while. You must listen to your mother and train well," he instructed softly.
"We will, Daddy," Xian Yue said obediently.
"Don't worry, Father! I will train hard!" Wushuang declared, puffing out his small chest with determination.
The two children seemed to sense that their father was about to embark on something important, so they were being exceptionally well-behaved. Over the past two years, both of them had grown taller.
Gu Fei smiled in satisfaction, patting their heads gently before standing up to face his wives.
"You should stay here and take care of the children," He said softly.
Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin exchanged a glance and nodded. Although they were reluctant, they understood the importance of this journey. Even so, he was worried they might secretly follow him, so he reminded them repeatedly.
"Take care," Xiao Yi Xian whispered, her beautiful eyes flickering with concern.
"Don't worry, I'll return safely," He said with a smile, giving them a warm hug.
After saying his goodbyes, Gu Fei left.
At a large square in the Gu Realm, the mighty army of the Gu Clan had already gathered. The square was filled with a sea of people as far as the eye could see. Countless experts, clad in matching battle armor, stood in orderly rows, their aura imposing and overwhelming.
Excitement gleamed in their eyes, as everyone anticipated the upcoming battle. Over the past years, many had been eagerly awaiting this moment while the Hun Clan lay in hiding.
Above, numerous flying magical beasts circled the sky, letting out cries. On the ground, massive war beasts stood proudly, exuding a terrifying presence.
These war beasts had been meticulously prepared by the Gu Clan and would play a crucial role in the battle. Around the square, giant battle flags bearing the clan's emblem flapped in the wind, shining brightly under the sunlight. The scene was awe-inspiring and magnificent.
At the forefront stood Gu Fei, his eyes scanning the crowd like lightning. His imposing figure radiated an unmatched pressure, causing everyone to stand a little straighter.
"Set off!" His command rang out like thunder.
As his words fell, he raised his hand and sliced through the air.
Humm!
A massive space fissure appeared out of nowhere, emitting a chilling wave of power. The crack was hundreds of meters wide, seemingly capable of swallowing everything.
He stepped in first, followed by the vast army. Countless experts filed into the crack, creating a spectacular scene. Flying magical beasts carried wave after wave of soldiers into the rift, while the ground beasts trudged in with heavy steps.
The entire process took nearly half an hour to transfer everyone through the space fissure. Once the last Gu Clan warrior had entered, the giant rift slowly closed, eventually vanishing completely.
Meanwhile, armies in other parts of the Central Plains were also gathering at full speed.
In the Yan Clan's territory, countless warriors stood fully armed, surrounded by blazing flames, looking like walking fire gods. In the sky above, phoenixes of fire circled, letting out piercing cries.
In the Lei Clan's camp, thousands of warriors stood ready, their bodies wrapped in crackling arcs of electricity, exuding a terrifying aura. Above their heads, dark clouds swirled, thunder rumbling as if ready to strike at any moment.
The Yao Clan, Shi Clan, and Ling Clan were all fully mobilized, assembling the most powerful armies in their history.
The combined might of these ancient clans was unparalleled, and with the aid of powerful experts like Xiao Chen of the Xiao Clan, the coalition forces reached an unprecedented level of strength.
Such a lineup was unheard of in the history of the continent, shocking countless forces. Many sent spies to gather information about the upcoming battle.
News of the six-clan coalition spread like a storm across the continent, leaving various factions astounded and fearful of this immense power.
"The six ancient clans are joining forces! They must be planning to annihilate the Hun Clan for good!"
"Even the ancient expert Xiao Chen has come out of seclusion. The Hun Clan won't be able to escape this time!"
"They committed countless atrocities. Now, they're finally facing retribution!"
Speculation ran rampant across the continent as everyone wondered how this impending battle would unfold.
After completing their assembly, the six-clan coalition marched towards the Hun Realm.
Their destination was a desolate desert in the far west of the Central Plains.
After days of long travel, the coalition forces finally arrived at their destination.
Before them stretched a boundless expanse of yellow sand. The howling wind whipped up clouds of dust, blotting out the sun.
In the distance, where the sky met the earth, dunes rose and fell, resembling countless giant beasts crouching on the ground.
The desert was lifeless and barren, with not a blade of grass in sight. The scorching sun hung high in the sky, its intense heat making the air suffocating.
Yet, hidden in this desolate land was the Hun Clan's lair.
At the forefront of the army stood Gu Yuan, his immense strength unquestionable.
Ever since he had discovered the location of the Hun Clan and returned to the army, his presence had given the six-clan coalition a newfound sense of unity and confidence.
The complaints and doubts that once filled the ranks had vanished, replaced by a firm resolve.
Such was the aura of a true powerhouse.
At this moment, he stood in the air, scanning his surroundings with sharp eyes.
His face, full of authority, held a hint of gravity, indicating that he had sensed something significant.
