Chapter 475: Surprise Attack on the Man Hall
The Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe was an extremely mysterious figure in the eyes of many.
Not to mention the Dragon Emperor, even an ordinary member of the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe was something out of legend. After all, Ancient Void Dragons were a rare sight in the Central ins.
The recent appearance of a Dou Saint from the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe had already taken them by surprise, let alone a Dragon Emperor.
In the hearts of many, the Ancient Void Dragons were as mysterious and powerful as those of the Ancient ns.
The so-called Dragon Emperor was an existence on par with the n Heads of the Gu n and the Hun n.
Therefore, when they heard that Zi Yan was actually the legendary Dragon Emperor, they could not hide the shock in their hearts as it surged across their faces.
"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, we were disrespectful earlier!"
Once they came to their senses, they all clenched their fists in respect.
Among them, Fairy Hua couldn''t help but cast a few more nces at Zi Yan, who was sitting elegantly beside Xiao Ming, and sighed softly.
An exquisite appearance, a majestic demeanor, the status of Dragon Emperor, and a lifetime bond with Xiao Ming; how could she ever hope topete with that?
She finally understood why Xiao Ming seemed uninterested in her. His standards were simply too high!
In response to their respectful gestures, Zi Yan waved her hand, indicating that there was no need for such formality.
Xiao Ming was the leader of this alliance and she was here as his partner. There was no need to treat her as an outsider.
Seeing this, Xiao Ming steered the conversation, "All right, everyone, please sit down. Let''s discuss the matter of the Hall of Souls."
As the main topic was brought up, the faces of the others also became more serious; they were still surprised by Zi Yan''s identity, but seeing how she and Xiao Ming had an extraordinary rtionship, they shifted their focus to the pressing issue at hand.
The First Elder said in a serious tone, "You must have heard our discussion earlier. Now that you''ve returned, it''s up to you as the leader of the Alliance to make a decision."
"My stance is clear: if we''re going to strike, we should strike decisively. Apart from their headquarters, the Heaven Hall, we can target the rest of their branches."
"If it weren''t for theck of clues about the location of the Heaven Hall, we could even think aboutunching a surprise attack on it. If we seed, it would be a devastating blow to the Hall of Souls."
<em>What a bold n!</em>
As they listened to Xiao Ming''s proposal to attack the Heaven Hall, the elders couldn''t help but break out in a cold sweat, secretly relieved that the Heavenly Court hadn''t discovered the location of the Heaven Hall.
The Heavenly Court was undoubtedly powerful, butunching a direct attack on the Heavenly Hall, where most of their elite members were gathered, still made them feel uneasy.
However, if the Heaven Hall was off the table, it was clear what Xiao Ming''s target would be.
"Is the Alliance Leader suggesting an attack on the Earth Hall?"
"The Earth Hall is under the jurisdiction of the Deputy Chief of the Hall of Souls, who is only a three-star Dou Saint. With our current strength, we should have no fear."
"No," Xiao Ming said, shaking his head. "My suggestion is that we attack both the Earth Hall and the Man Hall at the same time, as well as destroying some of the Disha Halls that were near our Alliance."
"Hoo~"
''That was quite ambitious!'' The elders couldn''t help but gasp. Xiao Ming was ying quite a risky game here.
Seeing their changing expressions, Xiao Ming knew they had some concerns and decided to exin his n further.
"The Earth Hall will be attacked by both Zi Yan and myself."
"As for the Man Hall, it will be led by the Fox Saint and the First Elder. The previous Man Hall was under the control of the First and Second Tianzun of the Hall of Souls. The First Tianzun was killed by me, but the Hall of Souls may have appointed new members, possibly with stronger defenses. Both elders are two-star and three-star Dou Saints, which makes it safer. The remaining Half-Saint elders will lead the attack on the Disha Halls near our Alliance."
"To prevent the Hall of Souls from retaliating against us, the Alliance still needs a strong defender. So I hope that Senior Huo Yun can stay behind this time..."
''This n... is feasible.''
As Xiao Ming exined, the elders began to grasp the details. The Heavenly Court had grown considerably in power, and Xiao Ming''s n, though bold, had a high chance of sess. Therefore, they all nodded in agreement.
"In that case, let''s prepare for two days. After that, when all members are ready, we will set out separately!"
...
The Burial Mountain Range stood at the crossroads between the western and southern regions of the Central ins.
Due to its terrain, this ce had an extremely dense and dangerous aura. Since most of the people within a radius of five hundred kilometers were buried here, the dark aura was mixed with a rich stench of corpses.
As a result, the Burial Mountain Range was a strange mountain range constructed with tombs. Under normal circumstances, it was difficult to find human figures. No one would want to stay in a ce covered with a ghostly aura.
<em>Whoosh!</em>
In the silent expanse above the Burial Mountain Range, a subtle rush of wind was heard, and rays of light streaked across the sky.
On a remote peak deep within the mountain range, several figures appeared. Their gaze was fixed on the heart of the mountain range, where a faint distortion appeared hidden among the towering gray trees.
"The Man Hall lies deep within the Burial Mountain Range," the First Elder exined, pointing into the depths. "But it is shielded by a spatial barrier. Anyone who enters will be detected."
The Nine-Tailed Fox Saint nodded. Their goal was to wipe out the Man Hall, and whether they were detected or not hardly mattered.
"Let''s begin."
After a quick nce at the dozen or so Ninth Change Dou Venerates behind him, he led the way and approached the barrier. With a flick of his right hand hidden beneath his robe, he tore a long crack in the spatial barrier.
"Remember, leave no survivors!"
"Understood!"
As the words echoed, figures darted swiftly through the crack and into the spatial barrier.
Inside the somewhat distorted space was an endless expanse of ck earth. The surface was littered with numerous pale skeletal remains, creating an eerie and unsettling sight.
At the center of this darkenedndscape stood a colossal ck hall, resembling an ancient and ominous beast crouched on the ground. A palpable aura of dread and unease emanated from it, sending ripples through the secluded space.
Inside the ck hall, countless massive ck chains stretched outward, piercing deep into the ground.
The Protectors of the Man Hall were meditating atop these ck chains when they suddenly sensed something strange. They opened their eyes, only to find a gigantic fox hundreds of meters tall standing before them!
<em>An attack!</em>
After a brief moment of shock and confusion, they sprang into action. However, before they could react, the space around them was sealed by waves of powerful Dou Qi.
<em>Bang! Bang! Bang!</em>
A series of explosions followed, leading to the untimely extermination of hundreds of Protectors outside the hall.
"Who dares to trespass on the sacred grounds of the Hall of Souls? Do you seek death? Perish!"
Massive ck chains, each hundreds of meters wide and resembling giant pythons, shot out of the ck fog. As these chains moved, they caused the void to tremble and distort, leaving dark, twisted traces in their wake.
The Nine-Tailed Fox Saint sneered contemptuously as he surveyed the chains, then responded with a swift counterattack.
Their collision caused turbulent spatial fluctuations within the confined space.
Meanwhile, Xiao Ming and Zi Yan had also arrived at their destination.
