Chapter 545: Hun Tiandi Reappears

"It is indeed a little risky, but compared to the gains, this little risk is insignificant."

Xiao Ming smiled. Xiao Xuan was unaware of his true strength and was naturally concerned about the risks. However, he could not prove his strength at the moment, nor did he need to.

Seeing the smile on Xiao Ming's face, Xiao Xuan also knew that he hadn't taken his words to heart.

He was about to speak again when his expression suddenly changed. His gaze looked off into the distance, towards the hazy space, and he said, "Something is happening in the Gu Realm."

"Oh?"

Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed when he heard this. His soul power swept out and traversed countless spatial layers in the blink of an eye, appearing at the entrance to the Heavenly Tomb. In an instant, he sensed subtle differences in the space where the Heavenly Tomb bordered the Gu Realm compared to when he first entered.

"The Heavenly Tomb is located within the Gu Realm and is usually incredibly stable. Such changes only occur when the spatial integrity of the Gu Realm suffers large-scale damage. This is the first time I've felt such changes since I entered the Heavenly Tomb. It seems that Hun Tiandi can no longer contain himself."

"Unfortunately, I am merely a remnant soul now, and from a certain perspective, not even quite that. If it weren't for the unique nature of the Heavenly Tomb, I would have dissipated long ago. Unless I am resurrected, I won't be able to help you in any way."

Xiao Xuan knew that the Gu Realm was in trouble and Xiao Ming couldn't stay in the Heavenly Tomb any longer. He felt a sense of regret. He had waited in the tomb for a thousand years, hoping to help the descendants of the Xiao Clan.

Though the time had finally come, he found that the younger generation was so outstanding that he couldn't be of any help. For a moment, his heart felt a little complicated.

"Perhaps there is a way for the ancestor to be resurrected."

Xiao Ming, who was about to bid farewell, changed his words when he heard this.

"Hehe... perhaps only a legendary Dou God expert could achieve that," Xiao Xuan was momentarily surprised, but then chuckled, thinking that Xiao Ming was referring to this.

Xiao Ming smiled and with a flash of his ring, he revealed a scroll containing a medicinal pill recipe. He handed it to Xiao Xuan and disappeared after leaving a few words.

"Ancestor, the situation is urgent. I'll take my leave."

As Xiao Xuan listened to the echoing words in the air, he lowered his head to look at the scroll in his hand. A few small characters were written on it.

Di Tier Pill Recipe, Resurrection Pill!

"Hehe, good lad, you really have your ways. I never thought that after a thousand years of waiting, you would be the one to help me instead..."

...

Gu Realm.

"Wu!"

The urgent alarm sound echoed throughout this vast realm, spreading rapidly and causing the faces of all the members of the Gu Clan to change drastically.

"Gu Clan, be on guard!"

The Three Gu Immortals flashed into the sky almost simultaneously, their stern shouts echoing throughout the surrounding area. In the vast mountain ranges, streaks of light began to soar into the air. All the strong members of the Gu Clan appeared at this moment. The sky was instantly filled with surging Dou Qi, and a tremendous aura permeated the air.

As the massive Dou Qi filled the sky, Gu Yuan appeared with his hands behind his back, his face calmly looking at a spot in the empty space. Even though there seemed to be nothing there, he had no intention of averting his gaze.

"Clan Head Gu Yuan, what's going on?"

Yan Jin and Lei Ying appeared at his side with a serious expression on their faces and looked at the same spot. However, they did not sense anything. Their vigilance rose at that moment.

"Hun Tiandi is coming," Gu Yuan's voice echoed.

"Hun Tiandi is really coming? Could it be that they... intend to make a move against the Gu Clan?"

Yan Jin spoke in a heavy tone. As the words left his mouth, even he couldn't help but frown. The Gu Clan was not like other Ancient Clans. Even if the Hun Clan had two nine-star Dou Saints and unleashed all of their power, it would be extremely difficult to wipe out the entire clan as they did with the Spirit Clan.

However, considering the Hun Clan's goal, it wasn't completely impossible for them to take action against the Gu Clan.

Gu Yuan made no further reply. His gaze remained fixed on that spot. As he remained silent, the once noisy mountain range fell into complete silence. It seemed as if one could faintly hear the rapid heartbeats of everyone present. Everyone understood what scene would unfold today if the Hun Clan were to appear.

The silence in this realm lasted for about a moment. Yet, no one dared to relax. All eyes remained fixed on the empty space.

After a brief moment, the previously empty space suddenly rippled, and at the same time, a soft laughter slowly echoed.

"Ha ha, Gu Yuan, it has been a long time since we met, but your perception is still as sharp as ever."

The appearance of this voice immediately caused all the experts of the Gu Clan to slowly ready their bodies. Dou Qi whistled like floodwater within them. At the slightest movement, a torrential attack like a violent storm would immediately erupt!

The fluctuation of space caused a swirl to slowly form. Soon a long hand reached out from within the swirl. It held the top of the swirl as a figure slowly stepped out of it, eventually appearing in front of everyone's eyes.

The person who had emerged from the swirl was wearing a grayish-white cloth. He appeared to be in his thirties or so. His face was handsome with a pair of unusually bright eyes that seemed to be able to see through one's heart. The first impression of this person was that he was a refined individual. If this person held a book in his hand, he would likely appear to be no different from a scholar.

However, it was the appearance of this man who looked like a weak scholar that caused Lei Ying and Yan Jin to become extremely solemn. Even Gu Yuan had his eyes fixed on this person.

"He's the head of the Hun Clan, Hun Tiandi?"

Many younger people looked at the man strangely, murmuring secretly in their hearts. They were unable to connect this seemingly warm and refined man with the strangest and most sinister faction on the Dou Qi Continent.

After the man appeared, a few human figures slowly stepped out of the swirl behind him.

Leading the way was a figure surrounded by black flames, unmistakably Nihility Devouring Flame. Behind him followed the Four Demon Saints of the Hun Clan.

With such a lineup, it would be challenging to find a second one on the entire continent...

With the appearance of these people, all the elders of the Gu Clan began to reveal tense expressions. Many defensive light barriers rose from the mountain range. The light intersected with each other, giving it an extremely brilliant appearance.

"Ha ha, the Gu Clan is really very lively today. Gu Yuan, Lei Ying, Yan Jin, it has been thousands of years since the four of us have gathered together like this, hasn't it?"

The white-robed man in the sky merely smiled slightly at the countless defensive barriers below. His voice was gentle as he spoke.

"Hun Tiandi, this is not a place where you should be."

Gu Yuan's eyes focused on the white-robed man and said slowly.

"There is no place in this world I should not go."
