A tremendous pressure suddenly erupted from Qian Renhan's body and crashed down on the Taixu Ancient Dragon group. Before they could even react, they were crushed instantly, reduced to several kilometer-long Taixu Ancient Dragon corpses.

"Clan leader?!" Several elders of the Nine Nether Earth Python clan stared blankly, shocked by 'Yao Xiaotian's' sudden act of slaughter. The Taixu Ancient Dragon clan had offered an incredibly generous reward—especially the blood essence of the Ancient Heavenly Serpent, a reward the clan could not refuse. They could not understand why their clan leader would not only reject it but also act so decisively to offend the powerful Taixu Ancient Dragon clan.

A hot-tempered half-saint elder angrily rebuked, "Yao Xiaotian! Do you even know what you've just done?!"

"Are you questioning the actions of your clan leader?"

Qian Renhan looked at the elder calmly, showing none of Yao Xiaotian's usual sinister cruelty. But that calm gaze alone was enough to make the elder sullenly shut his mouth, swallowing all his grievances.

Within the Nine Nether Earth Python clan, Qian Renhan's position was absolutely supreme. This was not merely because he wore the clan leader's facade, but more importantly, because he was the only one among them who had mastered Nether Fury. The Nine Nether Earth Pythons did not cultivate soul power, and none of them had souls strong enough to reach the spiritual domain. A single roar of Nether Fury could instantly annihilate any of them.

After dismissing the elders, Qian Renhan took the Taixu Ancient Dragon corpses and entered the Cold Spring. There, he briefly returned to his own body. In the past year and a half, he had nearly finished refining the fourth of six drops of Demon Saint blood essence. His physical body had reached a level of strength he could scarcely imagine, and his cultivation had advanced to the late stage of a Seven-Star Dou Saint.

The increase in his body's strength came from being tempered by the Yellow Spring Demon Saint's blood essence, while his cultivation had improved thanks to the flesh and blood of the Grand Elder and the blood essence of Yao Xiaotian that Qian Renhan had transferred, along with a small amount of the Demon Saint's blood essence energy.

The Heaven-Tier cultivation technique ran automatically within his body. This meant that when the Demon Saint's blood essence surged chaotically inside him, a portion of the energy that was meant to fortify his blood, flesh, and bones was refined by the automatically operating technique. As a result, the strengthening effect could not reach one hundred percent, but there was nothing to be done about it.

After returning to his own body, the first thing Qian Renhan did was extract the souls of the strongest of the Taixu Ancient Dragons and devour them. From their memories, he gained insight into the current situation of the Ancient Dragon clan.

The Ancient Dragon clan had splintered into four factions—East, South, West, and North. The southern, western, and northern domains were ruled by Dragon Kings, each possessing the royal Taixu Ancient Dragon bloodline. The eastern domain, however, was governed by elders who were awaiting the return of Zhukun's descendant—the rightful Dragon Emperor. These dragons Qian Renhan had slain belonged to the Northern Dragon Island.

Originally, the four great Dragon Islands operated independently. But since all four aimed for unification, the three Dragon Kings from the South, West, and North were at odds, each vying for the throne of the Dragon Emperor. This power struggle had led to a prolonged stalemate, where no side dared to make a drastic move in the absence of absolute strength. This also explained why East Dragon Island, despite being the weakest and most stubborn, had not been destroyed by the other three.

Recently, rumors had emerged that a true Dragon Emperor had appeared on East Dragon Island—one possessing the royal bloodline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon. Though the Dragon Emperor's strength remained unknown, the absolute suppression from their noble bloodline would significantly weaken the other Dragon Kings in battle, rendering them unable to resist even the weakest elder of East Dragon Island. As a result, the Northern Dragon King had dispatched these Taixu Ancient Dragons to the Nine Nether Earth Python clan to seek an alliance against the legendary Dragon Emperor of East Dragon Island.

After absorbing all this information, Qian Renhan muttered, "So that's how it is. It seems Zi Yan's Dragon Emperor bloodline has fully awakened. I wonder how strong she is now... Still, the Northern Dragon Island has truly delivered me a fine gift."

The Phoenix Cry and Dragon Roar was one of the most powerful soundwave techniques in the world. When combined with a soundwave-based Dou Technique, its power was immense. Qian Renhan already possessed the Nether Fury, a technique that specifically targeted the soul. As for the Phoenix Cry, he had already killed Huang Tian of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix clan—the strongest phoenix on the continent—and had used all of his blood essence to refine his body. The Phoenix Cry had reached the limit of what was possible on this continent.

As for the Dragon Roar, the only dragon Qian Renhan had previously devoured was the Golden Dragon King from the Divine Realm. In the eyes of the Taixu Ancient Dragons, these four-legged dragons had an extremely impure bloodline, which greatly dragged down the level of his Dragon Roar. The Taixu Ancient Dragons that had just delivered themselves to his doorstep were perfect for a significant upgrade.

Once he finished devouring these Taixu Ancient Dragons, the power of his Nether Fury would certainly rise to a new level.

At Starfall Pavilion, Yao Chen had already been fully resurrected. However, because Xiao Yan had lost consciousness during his battle with Ling Quan and was thrown out of the Dou Saint Ruins by Qian Renhan, he had failed to obtain the Dou Saint's skeleton. As a result, the resurrected Yao Chen's strength was only at his former peak—the pinnacle of a Nine-Revolution Dou Venerable.

After his revival, Starfall Pavilion immediately spread the news across the Central Plains, hoping to use Yao Chen's fame and alchemy skills to rally others against the Demon-Slaying Alliance. But only one person responded—the Iron Sword Venerable. Everyone else avoided them, fearing disaster would follow.

While Starfall Pavilion continued its daily training routine, a cold and murderous shout suddenly echoed thunderously across the sky:

"Starfall Pavilion! Hand over Xiao Yan, the Little Doctor Immortal, and Yao Tianhuo—or today, this place will be washed in blood!"

Boom!

The shout startled everyone in Starfall Pavilion. The expressions of Yao Chen, Wind Venerable, the Little Doctor Immortal, and Xiao Yan changed drastically. They all rose to their feet, their gazes turning cold as they looked beyond the stone platform.

"The Demon-Slaying Alliance... the Hall of Souls... they've finally come!"

Atop Starfall Peak, all the Starfall Pavilion disciples stood up, their expressions filled with shock and uncertainty as they stared at the distant sky. Because of the protective formation naturally created by fallen meteorites, they could not see the situation outside. But they could vaguely sense that today, a great disaster was truly about to befall Starfall Pavilion.

On a plaza near the summit, Wind Venerable and the others gathered, their faces heavy as they looked up at the sky.

"There are many powerful auras outside. It seems the Demon-Slaying Alliance is truly planning to slaughter Starfall Pavilion to make an example of us," the Little Doctor Immortal said, her face grim.

Wind Venerable nodded slightly, though his expression remained calm. He knew this day would come sooner or later.

Stepping forward, Wind Venerable changed his hand seals, and a ripple spread through the Starfall Grand Formation overhead. As space slowly twisted, the situation outside was clearly revealed to everyone watching.

"Hiss—"

When they saw the scene beyond the formation, everyone could not help but draw in a sharp breath. The area outside Starfall Pavilion was now completely surrounded by a sea of figures. Just ahead of them, over a thousand figures hovered in the air, their sinister gazes seemingly piercing through the grand formation to lock onto Wind Venerable and the others hiding within.

Xiao Yan's pupils contracted. Despite the sheer number of enemies, his eyes immediately picked out two exquisite figures among the crowd. The worry in their eyes was impossible to hide.
