Chapter 3680: The Phantom Clan Is in Crisis

Somewhere in the Asura Hell, 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, “I’m just a step away from becoming an intermediate King of Gods. 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, it’s 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 he’s safe. If anything happens to him, I’ll 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 Gods, with his comprehension of the law of destruction and the Destructive Sword Dao, he was confident he could kill ordinary intermediate Kings of Gods. However, that was not the case for Mi Xuan since Mi Xuan were soul-like entities who specialized in soul attacks. In the past, the speed of Mi Xuan’s attacks was so fast that he had difficulty dealing with them and was forced to retreat to the Asura Hell to raise his cultivation base.

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

‘Now that I’m an intermediate King of Gods, it won’t 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 Gods, 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 Hell, 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 Hell, many Celestial Emperors would come to the Land of the Dead to hunt for soul entities 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 gods and Kings of Gods. The clan had been in decline due to internal strife. Currently, it was on the brink of destruction.

“Mi Xuan, you won’t get away with this! How dare you harm your own clan members! You’ll 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 won’t 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 Xuan’s attitude changed completely.

In the beginning, he possessed Tang San Pao’s 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 Gods.

“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 scumbag, Mi Xuan, got away again! Now that he’s an advanced King of Gods, the Formation that our ancestor left behind can no longer stop him. Moreover, it’s 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 Gods. Alas, none of them expected a Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan would turn into a traitor.

“It wouldn’t 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 Formation’s weaknesses.”

“Who could’ve known a clan leader would turn out this way?”

“Who was the one who supported him to become the clan leader? If he wasn’t the clan leader, we wouldn’t be in this predicament now.”

“This isn’t the time to point fingers. Who could’ve 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 Gods.

“I should leave the Land of Gods for now and lay low. I remember one of the elders is acquainted with a Lord of Gods who owes him a favor. Who knows if the elder would call in the favor and ask that Lord of Gods 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 Gods who owed him a favor. However, there was nothing the Lord of God could do since Mi Xuan had already left the Land of the Dead.

Although the crisis had yet to be resolved, the Lord of God had to leave the Phantom Clan’s estate. After all, he could not stay in the Phantom Clan forever to protect its members.

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

When he found the Lord of Gods 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 God, I’ll visit his clan and kill his clan members. Even if I just become a Lord of Gods, he still wouldn’t 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 Gods stopped showing up to the Phantom Clan’s 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 Gods.

Feng Qing Yang was still cultivating in the Asura Hell, 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 God after devouring the Auspicious Pill he had obtained as a reward for ranking first in the Heavenly Stairs Battle..
