Chương 247: Why Isn't the Gu Clan Seizing the Demonic Flame?
"Let's all make our move…"
Gu Fei smiled and glanced at the others. He then mobilized a large amount of Dou Qi and channeled it into the formation created by Hun Miesheng.
The other five Dou Saint experts from the ancient clans also increased their Dou Qi input.
"Do you think you can seal me? Dream on!"
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame began to counterattack fiercely.
This made the faces of Hun Miesheng and the seven, including Gu Fei, turn grim.
"Everyone, fight with all you got!"
Hun Miesheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. A fierce look appeared on his otherwise ordinary face. He bit his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood into the light beam.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
As the seven fought desperately, the light beam's intensity suddenly increased.
The massive body of the Demonic Flame began to shrink rapidly under the formation's energy.
"Demon Sealing Array, seal!"
Seeing this, Hun Miesheng was overjoyed. His hand seals changed rapidly, and with a fierce shout, the black formation quickly transformed into a black pillar about ten feet in diameter. Within the pillar, a milky-white flame slowly rose, emitting a terrifyingly extreme temperature that spread quietly.
"Success…"
Seeing this, Huo Yao and the others breathed a sigh of relief. At least their lives were no longer in danger.
With the Demonic Flame sealed by the formation, a brief silence fell in the sky.
"Hehe, this collaboration has been truly enjoyable. The demonic flame is finally sealed, saving the beings of the Central Plains from disaster. Thank you!"
After adjusting his breath, Hun Miesheng laughed heartily and cupped his hands to Gu Fei and the others.
"This guy… is he planning to seize the demonic flame now?"
Gu Fei had already guessed Hun Miesheng's intentions.
Although he still had some energy left, he pretended to be severely depleted.
He also sent a message to Gu Nanhai, who was watching from afar, indicating that he should not attempt to seize the demonic flame and should just watch.
"Okay!"
Gu Nanhai, though puzzled, trusted Gu Fei's judgment.
"Ha ha, thank you all for today. My clan will remember this favor!"
Hun Miesheng, as expected, did not disappoint Gu Fei's suspicions and soon reached for the black pillar in the sky.
Under the immense suction, the black pillar began to move rapidly toward Hun Miesheng.
"Damn it!"
"The Hun Clan really has other plans!"
This scene startled the others, and they quickly reacted, their angry shouts echoing through the sky.
"Hmph, you think it's so easy to take the demonic flame!"
Elder Huo Yao from the Flame Clan and the four-star Dou Saint elder from the Lei Clan suppressed their turbulent blood and struck the black pillar with powerful blows.
Their combined attack forced the direction of the black pillar to change.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this, Hun Miesheng was furious.
However, he did not immediately attack the two but instead sent a message to Hun Feng and another Hun Clan member.
"You two, don't you want to seize the demonic flame?"
"Act now!"
Upon hearing this, Hun Feng and the other clan member immediately reacted and moved toward the black pillar.
These two, apart from the Gu clan, were among the top experts in the area. Other forces, such as the Burning Flame Valley or the Pill Tower, could not produce experts to match them.
"That's the essence of the demonic flame; hurry and seize it!"
At this point, almost everyone in the sea region realized the situation. Their fiery eyes were fixed on the black pillar floating in the sky.
Inside it was the core essence of the demonic flame. Whoever obtained it would undoubtedly experience a dramatic increase in strength!
"Whoosh!"
Countless people frantically used their movements to grab the black pillar.
"Elder Nanhai from the Gu Clan hasn't made a move to seize it. Could it be a trick?"
Huo Zhi and Huo Xuan, seeing that Gu Nanhai, the most formidable competitor, was standing still, immediately felt suspicious.
"Perhaps, in Elder Nanhai's eyes, the safety of Miss Xun'er is more important than the demonic flame!" Huo Zhi said with emotion in her eyes.
She thought that Xun'er's presence was a significant burden. Otherwise, with two four-star Dou Saints, they would undoubtedly be the biggest winners in seizing the Demonic Flame.
"Elder Nanhai, you don't need to worry about me. Go seize the demonic flame…"
Seeing Gu Nanhai standing still, Xun'er instinctively thought he was hesitating out of concern for her safety.
Remembering Gu Fei's strong stance on the demonic flame, Xun'er didn't want to disappoint him.
If the demonic flame were lost because of Gu Nanhai's protection of her, she would feel very guilty.
"Miss Xun'er, the Young Clan Leader has specifically instructed that the demonic flame must not be seized!"
Gu Nanhai explained.
"Must not be seized?"
Hearing this explanation, Xun'er again thought that Gu Fei must have instructed Gu Nanhai to protect her, which was why…
"The Young Clan Leader must have his reasons. We should not act recklessly!"
Gu Nanhai added.
On the other side, a nearby Central Plains expert had seized the black pillar.
"Ha ha, I've obtained the essence of the demonic flame!" The person laughed excitedly.
However, before his laughter had fully echoed, nearly ten fierce gusts of wind struck him mercilessly.
"Bang!"
Under such concentrated attacks, this advanced half-saint expert did not even have a chance to scream before he was killed.
"Get out of the way!"
The two Hun Clan members arrived and, with their strength, easily overpowered everyone else.
Hun Feng, though only a late-stage two-star Dou Saint, had combat power comparable to an ordinary three-star Dou Saint. With just a few moves, he killed over ten surrounding experts.
"Hehe, the essence of the demonic flame now belongs to my Hun Clan…"
Hun Feng, holding the black pillar, showed a hint of ecstatic joy. He hadn't expected the seizure of the essence to go so smoothly.
Even with two four-star Dou Saints from the Gu clan, in the end, they still gained the benefit.
"Damn it, we can't let the demonic flame fall into the Hun Clan's hands!"
At this moment, the four-star Dou Saint experts who had fought the Demonic Flame were extremely angry but could not act immediately.
After defeating the Demonic Flame, they were mostly weakened and needed to recover.
"Young Master Gu Fei, doesn't your clan have Elder Nanhai? Why hasn't he made a move to seize it?"
Huo Yao looked at Gu Fei in surprise.
As he spoke, the other Dou Saint experts from various clans also looked curious. Gu Nanhai, who had not participated in the previous battle and was in the best condition among them, should have seized the opportunity if he acted.
