"Hun Tiandi, do you really think none of the other seven s see the ravenous ambitions of you and your Hun ? Today, you're just using slick words to deceive us into handing over the 'Tou She A God's Jade'. And as for your arrival here, isn't it solely to stop my adva? Why bother with all the roundabout talk?" Xiao Xuan made no attempt to hide his disgust toward Hun Tiandi and the entire Hun .

  Hun Tiandi was not angered by Xiao Xuan ying bare his iions. Instead, he smiled calmly and said, "In this world, only five of us 9-star Dou Saints stand at that final threshold before the Dou God realm. Among us, you, Xiao Xuan, have the highest talent and stand the greatest ce of reag Dou God. Today, my Hun shall wipe out your entire Xiao ."

  "Only I bee a Dou God!"

  Before the echo of his words faded, a thunderous boom erupted from the outer perimeter of the Heavenly Tomb. The interemor caused the grouh them to quake. Clearly, the battle had already begun outside.

  "The Gu has been blocked! Now, heed my aermihe Xiao !"

  At that roar, the hundreds of Hun members behind Hun Tiandi scattered, encirg Xiao Xuan along with their leader. With this formation, they inteo join forces to kill him and seize the 'Tou She A God's Jade.'

  Xiao Yan watched this grim se with a solemn expression.

  This battle could no longer be described as merely tragic; it was heroid cruel.

  Watg these ses made Xiao Yan fully grasp the brutal truth of 'survival of the fittest' on the Dou Qi ti.

  Within these images, some fought to bee Dou Gods, while others fought to protect their s. tless elite experts perished in this colossal struggle, as if thrown into a gia grinder. Oian Css Dou Teique after another ripped through the world, wiping out innumerable powerful individuals in the surging waves of Dou Qi.

  Most shog of all was the fight betweewest experts, Xiao Xuan and Hun Tiandi, who battled until the very sky and nd seemed on the verge of colpse, with the gruesome se stained red.

  Though Xiao Yan was merely a spectator standing on the ground, and these were just images from the past that he couldn't truly feel, he still withis battle that was fought until the nd was shattered and the sun and moon lost their light.

  Xiao Xuan and Hun Tiandi were evenly matched, locked in a furious stalemate.

  "Skyfire Three Mysterious ge!!"

  With a thunderous shout, Xiao Xuan's body simultaneously erupted into three different kinds of fme.

  Xiao Yan frowned as he scrutihose fmes. He could firm that one of them, a mixture of bd white, was the Yin-Yang Life ah Fme, and the other two were definitely Heavenly Fmes as well.

  'So he used Heavenly Fmes to preserve these memory ses… thehem behind.'

  Xiao Yan looked at the other two kinds of fmes. One urple fme, while the other was a crimson fme.

  'A crimson Heavenly Fme... The Ten Thousa Fme isn't it; its color is based on the spirits of ten thousas and isn't necessarily red. It should be the Fire Mountain Rock Fme or the Red Lotus Karmic Fme.'

  'The purple one is strahe Three Thousand Burning Fme is purple-bot this kind of pure purple. Could it be one of those Heavenly Fmes without a fixed color?'

  In the proje, even Hun Tiandi's face turned grim the moment Xiao Xuan unleashed his Skyfire Three Mysterious ge.

  Hun Tiandi immediately performed his ow Teique. A boundless sea of blood exploded into the sky, staining the horizon. As he took a single, forceful step forward, the crimson hue in his eyes intensified.

  A deafening crash resouhe entire world seemed to quiver at that heavy step. The surging sea of blood began to wildly, gealing into a massive, surging blood wave tens of thousands of feet high, bearing down to engulf Xiao Xuan.

  Xiao Xuan looked as minute as an ah the t wave.

  He lifted his palm, and with one forceful punch, a fire phoenix shot forward, letting out a pierg cry before g with the t blood wave.

  In that instant of collision, the world seemed to fall eerily silent for a heartbeat. Then a violent shock ripped through the world. The giant blood wave was shredded into a downpour of crimson droplets that rolled ba reverse.

  Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the battlefield oher side. The battle between the Hun d the Xiao was almost entirely one-sided. From Xiao Xuan's words, he could tell that the Xiao had reached the end of the road. The Dou God Bloodline had long sihered, leaving them no choice but to fight with their backs against the wall.

  Under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to prevail over the might of the Hun .

  With disparities in both numbers and strength, the Xiao retreated step by step as they suffered heavy casualties.

  As the Xiao steadily lost ground, more and more Hun experts threw caution to the wind, ung suicidal assaults on Xiao Xuan. Although Xiao Xuan had initially held a slight advantage, wounds soon began to appear all over his body.

  Fag the Hun experts' desperate assaults, a stratern appeared on Xiao Xuan's forehead.

  In an instant, raging fmes surged forth as if intending to ie the very sery around them. The bze formed a boundless sea of fire, sweeping toward the Hun 's forces.

  By harnessing the three Heavenly Fmes, Xiao Xuan temporarily staved off the Hun 's army.

  " Head, quickly begin the adva ceremony! If we dey any further, our will be doomed." the Grand Elder said gravely.

  Xiao Xuaated, his gaze lingering on the Xiao members locked in fierbat. He shook his head. "I'll take all of you away. We discuss the advaer."

  " Head, the adva formation has been prepared. How we discuss it ter? The Hun has e in full force this time. Our Xiao has already suffered severe losses. If we don't fight for it now, how we face those members who have died in battle?" Xiao Kong wiped the blood from his fad anxiously urged.

  Xiao Xuan gnced over the blood-soaked figures of his kin, and tears tinged with blood silently slid down his cheek.

  " Head, don't worry about us. For the sake of the Xiao 's future… advao Dou God!"

  "Advao Dou God!"

  Xiao Xuan slowly closed his eyes. When he reopehem, all traces of indecision had vanished.

  "Secret Teique, activate!"

  With a flurry of mysterious hand seals, an a intation was cast.

  At that moment, a golden glow ignited within every member of the Xiao .

  The golden radianed the Xiao 's distinctive Mark. The golden Marks floated out from the bodies of the members and hovered in the hazy sky. Although some of these golden marks were faint, while others were bright, ohey gathered together, they brightly lit up the entire sky!

  The cultivation levels of the Xiao members began to plummet wildly as their bloodline power was drawn away. Some could not ehe strain and directly exploded.

  All the accumuted power verged within Xiao Xuan, sweeping out in a terrifying surge.

  "Dou God!"

  Hun Tiandi's eyes turned blood-red. "How is this possible? How is this possible?!"

  Xiao Yan quietly observed these ses, his expression calm as he watched how his 's flory met its twilight.

  And the final oute was indeed as he had anticipated. In the end, Xiao Xuan still couldn't break through that final barrier.

  With a ched palm, Xiao Xuan tore open a spatial passage and, with a sweep of his sleeve, sent the remaining Xiao members inside.

  "Take the Tou She A God's Jade and go!"

  Xiao Xuan stood alone before the spatial passage, fronting a tide of Hun experts and Hun Tiandi himself. This was the tragial stand of a hero.

  Not once did Xiao Xuan turn his ba his enemies.

  "Heavenly Fmes, explode!"

  When his strength was utterly spent, Xiao Xuan self-detonated his Heavenly Fmes, killing swathes of the Hun 's elites. In the end, the Yin-Yang Twin Fme also detonated, and the se came to an abrupt halt at that moment.

  In the blink of ahe room returo its inal expanse of white.

  After a few moments of silence, Xiao Yan murmured, "So that's how it is. All of this was left behind by Xiao Xuan, the st Head of the Dou God Xiao —a final backup pn."

  He turned around, and behind him floated a swirl of bd-white fmes. The outline of the fme vaguely resembled a human figure.
