Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Hearing Nalan Yanran saying what seemed to be a matter of course in a matter-of-fact tone, Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched involuntarily. Nalan Yanran tilted her head slightly and spoke to herself.

"I don't know how long I fought with that Yellow Spring Demon Saint in the illusion. If that guy's remaining soul hadn't been exhausted, I would probably still be there."

Nalan Yanran complained like this, with an unhappy look on her face.

Previously, in the territory of the Nether Python Clan in the Nine Netherworld, Nalan Yanran’s consciousness entered the stone tablet of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint. After seeing the residual soul of the Yellow Spring Demon Saint, she succinctly stated that she wanted to become stronger.

Then the Demon Saint Huangquan offered to be Nalan Yanran's sparring partner, saying that he had not seen an outsider for many years and it was not easy to meet one, which would be just right for him to kill time in the remaining days. He also promised to teach Nalan Yanran all his unique skills.

Nalan Yanran did not refuse this. The unique skills of Huangquan Demon Saint were secondary to her. The main thing was that being able to fight with a world-class strongman like the late Nine-Star Fighting Saint was a rare experience. Even if she got nothing, it was definitely worth it.

Afterwards, Nalan Yanran began a long battle with Huangquan Demon Saint in the illusion. From being killed instantly by Huangquan Demon Saint in the beginning to being on equal terms with him later, Nalan Yanran herself could not remember how long she had stayed in the illusion. If Huangquan Demon Saint had not said that the time in the illusion was much slower than that in the outside world, Nalan Yanran would have come out long ago.

Thanks to the sparring with Huangquan Demon Saint, Nalan Yanran not only learned the Huangquan Demon Saint's unique skills, but more importantly, due to the endless serious injuries and near-death in the illusion, Nalan Yanran's strength increased rapidly under the influence of blood frenzy. Before entering the illusion, her strength was only at the late stage of a one-star Douluo, and when she came out of the environment, she had reached the early stage of a five-star Douluo, and the period was less than half a year.

Even Huangquan Demon Saint, a powerful man who once stood at the top of the world, was shocked by the growth of Nalan Yanran's strength. He sighed from the bottom of his heart that Nalan Yanran was a monster unprecedented and unparalleled, and he was also quite relieved in his heart.

He once stood at the top of the world, but he never reached a higher realm until his death. Now that he met Nalan Yanran, he unconsciously placed his hopes on this temporary disciple who had not formally become his disciple.

[Keep going, little girl. I hope you can reach a level that even I have never been able to reach in the future. ]

The Demon Saint of Huangquan, who left these words, disappeared from the world without any regrets after teaching all his unique skills.

After that, Nalan Yanran woke up from the illusion and went to Tianhe Alliance with Qinglin and Luman who had been waiting for her for a long time. On the way, she smelled the breath of the Soul Clan, so they parted ways and followed here.

"But I do have to thank him. Without his help, my strength wouldn't have improved so quickly."

Nalan Yanran shrugged lightly. At this moment, Gu Qinghan and Xiao Yixian's faces suddenly changed. They opened their mouths to shout something, but Nalan Yanran's face remained calm. Suddenly, she turned sideways and threw one hand behind her without even looking at them.

Bang!
A deafening roar sounded, and in the shocked eyes of Gu Qinghan and Xiao Yixian, an elder of the Spirit Clan who wanted to launch a sneak attack on Nalan Yanran was knocked away by Nalan Yanran's arm. Nalan Yanran slowly turned her head and glanced coldly at the elder of the Spirit Clan who was knocked away by her.

"Didn't I just say that? I'm not interested in corpses. Don't bother me."

As soon as Nalan Yanran finished speaking, Ling Jingyan and others who were surrounding Nalan Yanran moved one step closer, obviously intending to take action directly. Seeing this, Nalan Yanran sighed deeply.

"Why is it that after I came to Zhongzhou, all I met were these people who couldn't understand human language?"

But there really is no way this time. Ling Jingyan and those spirit clan elders are already dead. No matter how much you say, it will be useless.

"Forget it, I'll get rid of these guys first." Then Nalan Yanran turned to look at Xiao Yixian and said, "You guys should leave first, stay away from me, so as not to hurt you by mistake."

"Ah."

Xiao Yixiang nodded without hesitation, and Gu Qinghan immediately pulled her and Ling Rumeng away. After all, with their strength, staying here would be no different from being a burden.

Ling Jingyan and the others had no intention of stopping them. Their lifeless eyes were fixed on Nalan Yanran. Nalan Yanran raised the scarlet sword and swung it, narrowing her eyes slightly. A scarlet light flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Ling Jingyan coldly.

The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became tense, and the fighting spirit of Ling Jingyan and those spirit elders began to rise steadily. The powerful and terrifying fighting spirit pressure swirled around them, forming one tornado after another. The fighting spirits of the five five-star fighting saints on Ling Jingyan's side and the five-star fighting saint Nalan Yanran collided with each other, causing the originally bright sky to be covered with dust, lightning and thunder, and it was like the end of the world in the spirit world.

"Really? I've participated in many battles since I came to Zhongzhou, but this is my first time fighting a corpse." Nalan Yanran turned the sword and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Ling Jingyan. The corners of her mouth curled up, and her expression instantly became ferocious and terrifying. "But since it's already a corpse, there's no need to worry about it at all."

Hunze, the current elder of the Hun clan, is a six-star Douluo in the early stage.

Just today, the Soul Clan received a report from their spies in Zhongzhou that Nalan Yanran appeared in Zhongzhou and was heading towards the Spirit Clan where Hun Hong was stationed.

This Nalan Yanran had been against the Soul Palace in Zhongzhou, and had long been targeted by the Soul Clan. According to intelligence, based on the strength recorded by the Soul Palace the last time Nalan Yanran was alive, her current strength is at best just breaking through to the Dou Sheng level, not to mention that the Soul Clan also has Ling Jingyan and the elders of the Spirit Clan, a total of five five-star Dou Sheng-level soul servants, so they are not afraid of Nalan Yanran's mischief.

However, judging by past experience, this woman's fighting power is extremely terrifying, and she must not be simply judged by her realm. In addition, the true situation of the Spirit Clan was something that the clan leader personally specified to be covered up, and it must not be discovered by anyone. To be on the safe side, after internal discussion, the Soul Clan decided to send Hun Ze to the Spirit Clan as insurance.

Their clan leader is not as easy to talk to as Gu Yuan. Although he has not been in charge of the Soul Clan's affairs for a long time, there is one thing that all the Soul Clan elders are very clear about: if they are negligent in following the orders of their clan leader, they will end up dead and their souls will be scattered.

"Humph, they are really too cautious about just a little girl."

Hunze raised his eyebrows in disdain. In his heart, he was very reluctant to make such a trip. After all, Hunhong's strength was definitely enough to handle it.

But since this was the result of a discussion among the other elders, Hunze couldn't go against it.

Not long after, Hunze arrived at the border of Zhongzhou. Looking through the distance of thousands of miles, he seemed to see the broken spirit barrier, which made Hunze slightly stunned.

"Could it be that he has already broken in?"

Hunze's heart couldn't help but tremble, and he couldn't help but speed up.

The clan leader himself ordered to cover up the fact that the two Lingshi clans were destroyed. If they failed, all the elders might be punished.

And at this moment, Hunze's warning instinct suddenly sounded, followed by a sharp voice coming from behind him.

"A flash of thunder!" Puff!

Hunze just managed to dodge to the side, and saw a powerful bolt of lightning passing by him. Then the lightning gradually dissipated, revealing Lei Jing's heroic and cold face.

When Hunze saw Lei Jing's face, he was stunned at first, then his eyes turned cold.

"You're the boy from ThunderClan. Wait? You're a girl?"

Hunze's eyes suddenly became confused. Lei Dong was Lei Ying's eldest son, and the Hun Clan had naturally seen his portrait, but shouldn't he be the eldest son? Although Lei Jing in front of him looked more masculine, she was obviously a woman.

"Lei Dong. Female. Are you Lei Jing?" Hun Ze soon thought of the eldest lady of the Lei clan who was believed by everyone to have died young and was on the Hun clan's must-kill list. His eyes instantly understood, "So that's how it is. Lei Ying, that reckless man, actually managed to conceal the truth. It's really unexpected."

It is a commonly acknowledged fact among the top leaders of all eight clans that Lei Ying, the leader of the Thunder Clan, is a fool who only knows how to speak with strength. It has always been like this. Perhaps because of this, no one suspected that Lei Jing was faking his death. They all felt that Lei Ying would not do such a thing with his character.

But if you think about it, it's not surprising.

Lei Jing's talent is extremely rare in the history of the eight clans combined, and her top-level divine bloodline is unmatched. No matter how reckless Lei Ying is, he will realize that this is a huge disaster for Lei Jing. Whether from the perspective of the Lei clan to protect this rare genius of the Lei clan, or from the perspective of a father to protect his daughter, Lei Ying has sufficient reasons to perform such an extremely abnormal trick of faking his death.

As for how terrifying Lei Jing's talent is, you can tell by looking at her current strength.

He is in the late stage of the five-star Douluo, and is obviously only one step away from entering the realm of the six-star Douluo. What's more terrifying is that Lei Jing is not even thirty years old yet!
"I originally just came here for insurance, but I didn't expect to encounter a big fish." Hun Ze said this, turning his head slightly, looking at Xiao Yan who was staring at him coldly from behind, his eyes revealing a dark and cold look, "And it seems that there is more than one big fish."

The Tianhe Alliance has risen rapidly in the past few years and has occupied a huge force in the entire Zhongzhou. Even the Soul Palace was completely expelled from Zhongzhou some time ago, and Hun Miesheng fled back to the Soul Clan in a panic.

As the de facto leader of the Tianhe Alliance, Xiao Yan had naturally been targeted by the Soul Clan for a long time.

As for Xiao Yan's affairs, Hun Mie Sheng had always been in contact with the clan leader alone. Even though he had returned to the Hun clan now, Hun Mie Sheng naturally did not dare to tell anyone else until the clan leader opened his mouth.

Therefore, Hun Mie Sheng was the only one who knew about the inexplicable relationship between Xiao Yan and his family head. It was also because of this that Hun Ze, who was completely unaware of the situation, naturally showed murderous intent towards Xiao Yan.

This kid is too big a threat to the Soul Clan. He was born in the long-deceased Xiao family, but he was able to reach such a realm. This talent is quite terrifying even among the eight clans.

"I heard that a few days ago, it was you two who beat Hun Mie Sheng and forced him to flee back to the Hun Clan?" Hun Ze spoke slowly, "You are so young and have such strength. You are indeed a genius, but Hun Mie Sheng was defeated by you. It's really embarrassing."

Based on Hun Ze's judgment of Lei Jing and Xiao Yan, he couldn't understand how Hun Mie Sheng, who was at the same level as him, was defeated by the two of them. No wonder he said that Hun Mie Sheng lost ugly.

As you move up the Douluo level, the gap becomes bigger. As a native of the Soul Clan and with secret techniques at his disposal, Hun Mie Sheng has no reason to lose to Lei Jing and Xiao Yan.

And if Hun Mie Sheng heard what Hun Ze said, he would probably be so angry that he would fume.

Is it your turn to say whether I lost or not? If you were in my position, you would lose too!

Didn't I fight him that day? I was afraid that I might accidentally kill Xiao Yan!
Really, the hundreds of years that Hun Mie Sheng spent as the Lord of the Soul Palace in Zhongzhou were not as frustrating as these few short years. If he had anything to do with Xiao Yan, he would lose his head if he was not careful!

The key is that he cannot tell others about the grievances in his heart. Hun Mie Sheng was almost sick from holding it back, so after returning to the Hun Clan, he has been in seclusion on the pretext of recuperating. This is also the most peaceful time for him in recent years.

"Senior, judging from your appearance, you should be going to the Spirit Tribe, right?" Xiao Yan glanced at the broken barrier of the Spirit Tribe thousands of miles away, then retracted his gaze and looked at Hun Ze with a cold expression, "What are you going to do in the Spirit Tribe?"

Previously, Xiao Yan had always had doubts about whether the Spirit Tribe and the Stone Tribe were destroyed, but he did not investigate it in detail for the time being in order to prevent the war between the eight tribes from affecting the entire Zhongzhou.

And looking at the situation now, there should be no need to doubt that Hunze, a member of the Soul Clan, can go to the Spirit Clan alone.

"Little kid, what am I going to do in the spirit tribe? What does it have to do with you?"

Hun Ze responded with disdain, not taking Xiao Yan and Lei Jing seriously at all.

Compared to the frowning Xiao Yan, Lei Jing's personality is obviously more radical.

"No matter what he wants to do in the Spirit Tribe, the identity of a Soul Tribe member is enough to make him die a thousand times!"

Lei Jing clenched the lightning spear in his hand and shouted angrily, but this only attracted a sneer of contempt from Hunze.

"You want me to die? Just you?" Hunze glanced at Lei Jing and said in a cold voice, "Little girl, you have to know when to brag. Your father Lei Ying has tried his best to keep you safe, but you don't cherish it at all. You even dared to appear in front of me. You are so stupid."

As he spoke, the clothes on Hunze's body slowly danced in the wind, and his fighting spirit rose violently, causing Lei Jing and Xiao Yan to instantly tense their bodies and stare at Hunze's every move.

"Forget it. I think Hun Hong can handle the Ling Clan alone. I don't need to rush over there."

Hunze closed his eyes and said this, and in an instant the terrifying and majestic fighting spirit burst out. The powerful energy forced Lei Jing and Xiao Yan to retreat a little. They looked solemnly at Hunze, whose aura was completely different from before.

Then, Hunze slowly opened his eyes, and his voice was low but extremely intimidating, which made people feel scared just by listening to it.

"I'd better take care of you two ignorant little kids first." (End of this chapter)
