Chapter 3680: The Phantom Clan Is in Crisis

Somewhere in the Asura h.e.l.l, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms.

A blue-clad young man sat cross-legged in the air. His aura was gradually getting stronger as he absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the surroundings.

All of a sudden, the blue-clad young man opened his eyes. His eyes flashed as he muttered to himself, Im just a step away from becoming an intermediate King of G.o.ds. My soul attacks are stronger as well. Based on the strength of my soul attacks, law of destruction, and the Destructive Sword Dao, I should be able to defend myself against Mi Xuan, the former Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan. In fact, I should be strong enough to heavily injure him now. Alas, its still difficult for me to kill him.

The blue-clad young man shook his head as his gaze softened and he wondered out loud, I wonder how Little Tian is doing? I hope hes safe. If anything happens to him, Ill annihilate the entire Phantom Clan even if they have no relations to Mi Xuan anymore.

The blue-clad young man was none other than Feng Qing Yang. Now that he was an intermediate King of G.o.ds, with his comprehension of the law of destruction and the Destructive Sword Dao, he was confident he could kill ordinary intermediate Kings of G.o.ds. However, that was not the case for Mi Xuan since Mi Xuan were soul-like ent.i.ties who specialized in soul attacks. In the past, the speed of Mi Xuans attacks was so fast that he had difficulty dealing with them and was forced to retreat to the Asura h.e.l.l to raise his cultivation base.

Although most people did not dare to come to the Asura h.e.l.l, Feng Qing Yang knew the Asura h.e.l.l like the back of his hand.

Now that Im an intermediate King of G.o.ds, it wont be easy for Mi Xuan to destroy my soul no matter how skilled he is in soul attacks. If I cultivate a little more, I should be able to destroy him as well, Feng Qing Yang thought to himself.

With this thought in mind, he closed his eyes and continued cultivating again.

Little did he know, his disciple, Duan Ling Tian, had left the Devata Realms and had gone to the Profound Energy Land, one of the Realms of G.o.ds, through the Realm Battlefield.

Duan Ling Tian did not inform Feng Qing Yang about his decision because he did not want Feng Qing Yang to worry about him. Since Feng Qing Yang was much more knowledgeable, he knew Feng Qing Yang would not easily believe his lies like his family did. For that reason, he did not come to see Feng Qing Yang at all before he left.

Similar to the Asura h.e.l.l, the Land of the Dead was also one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms.

Since the Land of the Dead was not as treacherous as the Asura h.e.l.l, many Celestial Emperors would come to the Land of the Dead to hunt for soul ent.i.ties to be made into their weapons souls.

The Phantom Clan was one of the clans in the Land of Dead. Among their members, there were those who were G.o.ds and Kings of G.o.ds. The clan had been in decline due to internal strife. Currently, it was on the brink of destruction.

Mi Xuan, you wont get away with this! How dare you harm your own clan members! Youll pay for this one day! an elderly man in the form of a soul cried out before he was devoured by a young man.

Old man, you wont live to see that day.

The young man was none other than the former leader of the Phantom Clan, Mi Xuan.

After Feng Qing Yang visited the Phantom Clan in the Land of Dead to inform them about what Mi Xuan had done, Mi Xuan was stripped of his status as their leader and expelled from the clan. With that, Mi Xuans att.i.tude changed completely.

In the beginning, he possessed Tang San Paos body, but the body was destroyed by Duan Ling Tian when they were in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. After he narrowly escaped death and recuperated, he found another body to possess and returned to the Phantom Clan to devour the members to raise his cultivation base. After devouring a few of the elders, he had a breakthrough and became an advanced King of G.o.ds.

I should leave now, Mi Xuan muttered to himself before he disappeared in just a flash.

After Mi Xuan left, a terrifying wave of energy swept through the place where he was standing. Then, a few elders appeared, trembling and furious.

That sc.u.mbag, Mi Xuan, got away again! Now that hes an advanced King of G.o.ds, the Formation that our ancestor left behind can no longer stop him. Moreover, its impossible for our members to hide in the clan estate forever, one of the elders said angrily with a helpless expression on his face.

A disaster like this had once happened in the past. One of the members of the Phantom Clan had lost his mind after possessing a physical body and returned to the clan to devour its members. At that time, the clan was almost destroyed. To prevent history from repeating itself, the ancestor of the Phantom Clan had requested help from a Formation master to cast the Shocking Divine Killing Formation that could kill ordinary advanced Kings of G.o.ds. Alas, none of them expected a Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan would turn into a traitor.

It wouldnt be a problem if he were an ordinary member of the clan. Since he used to be the clan leader, he knows how to deactivate the Formation and the Formations weaknesses.

Who couldve known a clan leader would turn out this way?

Who was the one who supported him to become the clan leader? If he wasnt the clan leader, we wouldnt be in this predicament now.

This isnt the time to point fingers. Who couldve known what would happen in the future?

Elder Zhang Chai, I remember you were the one who strongly recommended Mi Xuan to be the clan leader in the past!

Due to the crisis, a cloud of gloom hung over the Phantom Clan.

Although orders had been given to stop members from leaving the clan estate, there were a few who disobeyed the order and snuck out. As a result, none of those who snuck out had returned.

Mi Xuan continued to raise his cultivation base by devouring his former clan members to the point where he was about to break through and become a Lord of G.o.ds.

I should leave the Land of G.o.ds for now and lay low. I remember one of the elders is acquainted with a Lord of G.o.ds who owes him a favor. Who knows if the elder would call in the favor and ask that Lord of G.o.ds to kill me?

With that, after devouring another former clan member, Mi Xuan left the Land of the Dead.

Just as Mi Xuan had expected, one of the elders did request help from the Lord of G.o.ds who owed him a favor. However, there was nothing the Lord of G.o.d could do since Mi Xuan had already left the Land of the Dead.

Although the crisis had yet to be resolved, the Lord of G.o.d had to leave the Phantom Clans estate. After all, he could not stay in the Phantom Clan forever to protect its members.

A few months after the Lord of G.o.ds departure, Mi Xuan returned to devour his former clan members again.

When he found the Lord of G.o.ds had appeared shortly after his departure, he was drenched in cold sweat.

Fortunately, I had the foresight to leave first at that time. However, nothing can stop me now! That old man should mind his own business. Once I become a Lord of G.o.d, Ill visit his clan and kill his clan members. Even if I just become a Lord of G.o.ds, he still wouldnt be able to kill me! Mi Xuan thought to himself as his eyes shone with killing intent.

Mi Xuan stayed briefly in the Land of the Dead before he left again.

Meanwhile, the Lord of G.o.ds stopped showing up to the Phantom Clans estate after a few times since he did not see Mi Xuan. Moreover, since Mi Xuan was showing signs of getting stronger, he no longer wanted to intervene in the matter. He was not afraid of Mi Xuan, but he had to consider his clan members who were weaker than Mi Xuan.

With this, the Phantom Clan fell into despair.

Feng Qing Yang and Duan Ling Tian were naturally unaware that Mi Xuan was close to becoming a Lord of G.o.ds.

Feng Qing Yang was still cultivating in the Asura h.e.l.l, trying to grow stronger while Duan Ling Tian had gone to the Profound Energy Land and had joined a lord-rank Hidden Fog Sect in the Eastern Ridge Mansion.

In just a blink of an eye, the day of the core disciples test had arrived.

Duan Ling Tian was on the cusp of a breakthrough to become a King of G.o.d after devouring the Auspicious Pill he had obtained as a reward for ranking first in the Heavenly Stairs Battle..
