Chapter 580: The Gathering of Demon Lords

In the end, Red Cloud Fairy said no more, but safety was paramount.

In Lin Fan's eyes, everyone except the Cloud Sect was nothing but experience points.

Opportunities are rare and never return.

Swish!

Lin Fan, with Red Cloud Fairy, instantly flew forward.

Red Cloud Fairy's senses were accurate; there should be no mistake.

When they were nearing the destination, Lin Fan felt ripples in the void.

Several vast forces shook the void, and a sense of oppression rushed toward them.

Just as Lin Fan and Red Cloud Fairy stopped,

a colorful cloud suddenly rose in the distant sky.

Within that cloud, several vast auras flowed. A giant, clad in seven-colored armor, tore open the cloud with massive hands like blades, striking a turtle shell.

A booming sound shook the air, piercing eardrums as if they would burst.

"Be careful. That move requires essence blood to execute. To push an elder to that level, he must be no ordinary person," Red Cloud said worriedly.

For safety, Lin Fan and Red Cloud did not fly through the air but traveled through the earth.

...

At the scene, chaos reigned. Several groups were fighting, and below them was an altar with a coffin.

These four groups were all vying for the coffin.

One group was the Cloud Sect elders, but their situation looked grim.

Another group consisted of four ancient clansmen, powerful and with deep auras. Though covered in wounds, they fought with increasing ferocity.

The other two groups seemed to be waiting for something.

"Old man Yunhe, what do you say? Let's join forces, kill these four ancient clansmen first, and then split the Water-Fire Emperor's treasure equally," a man in the void said.

This man, clad in black, pale-skinned, thin, with sunken eyes, exuded a chilling, sinister aura as if he were not alive.

"Kuisheng Old Demon, you dream if you think the Cloud Sect will cooperate with you heretics," said the Cloud Sect elder, his white hair standing like sharp swords, robes billowing with surging energy.

Behind him, two other elders also looked furious, while a fourth elder had his arms wrapped in black energy that was eroding them, rendering him combat-ineffective.

"Then that's a problem," Kuisheng Old Demon said with a faint smile, revealing two sharp fangs.

"The Cloud Sect doesn't know what's good for them. Let them die; what's it to us?" a woman beside Kuisheng Old Demon said with a smile.

This woman had long, sharp fingers, furry ears, and green cat-like eyes.

Her voice was icy, and her exposed body was alluring.

She seemed delicate, but her aura was terrifying.

The other group in the void had remained silent, watching the scene as if waiting for the right moment.

"Duoming Scholar, Brother Luo, Brother Mutian, what about you three? Will you watch from the sidelines or join in?" Kuisheng said with a smile, though his eyes hid deep wariness.

"Since the Cloud Sect wants a fight to the death with the ancient clans, we naturally oblige. When it's over, we'll split the Water-Fire Emperor's treasure," Mutian said.

This Mutian was the ghost clan member whom Lin Fan had beaten so badly in the Ten Thousand Kill Ancient Domain that he didn't even recognize his own parents.

But he had obtained a spirit vein from the Ten Thousand Kill Ancient Domain and, in a short time, refined it, drawing its power to break through to the Divine Heaven realm.

With that spirit vein, he even advanced to the Divine Heaven Second Layer, Domain Realm.

He condensed the "Eighteen Layers of Hell" that ghost clan members coveted.

With this "Eighteen Layers of Hell" domain, Mutian was invincible at the same level and could even kill those in the Cave Heaven realm.

"Good, we agree too." Kuisheng naturally didn't believe that nonsense, then looked at the ancient clansmen. "You may continue. Rest assured, we won't interfere."

"Despicable beings of the thousand races! Even if you get the Water-Fire Emperor's treasure, you won't leave," the four ancient clansmen panted slightly, not expecting things to turn out this way.

All the ancient clansmen who entered had been killed by these people, leaving only the four of them.

While they were fighting the Cloud Sect elders, these two groups had appeared from nowhere.

One Cloud Sect elder had been ambushed by Mutian, his hands wrapped in death energy that was difficult to remove even for his Cave Heaven cultivation.

...

"The elders are in danger," Red Cloud Fairy said worriedly, seeing the distant scene.

Lin Fan, observing the situation, began to scheme.

The highest cultivation was Divine Heaven Fourth Layer, Undying Realm.

The lowest was Mutian, Divine Heaven Second Layer, Domain Realm.

But compared to before, this guy had changed greatly.

His eyes had become one black and one white, exuding terrifying ghostly energy.

Just as Lin Fan was about to take them all out, Red Cloud Fairy suddenly rushed out.

"Elders, I'll help you!" Seeing the elders retreating before the four ancient clansmen, Red Cloud Fairy grew anxious.

Though it was three against four, one elder had been crippled by Mutian's ambush and was combat-ineffective.

"Red Cloud!" Elder Yunhe saw her and his expression changed. He pushed back an ancient clansman with a palm and came to her side.

"Why are you here?" Yunhe hadn't expected Red Cloud to come.

"Elder, I've come to help," Red Cloud said fearlessly.

"Alas..." Elder Yunhe sighed. Her coming was just throwing her life away.

Even if they killed the four ancient clansmen, there were still these heretics.

These heretics' methods were bizarre and even more terrifying than the ancient clans.

But when Red Cloud looked at the people around, her expression changed. She knew who they were—each was a ruthless demon lord.

Especially Duoming Scholar and Kuisheng Old Demon, whose infamous reputations far surpassed even that of Ten Thousand Bats Old Ancestor.

"A mere little girl at Divine Heaven First Layer, True Dharma Realm, dares to come and die. It seems my Eighteen Layers of Hell will gain another ghost servant," Mutian said, looking at Red Cloud with a grim expression.

Along the way, he had killed many Cloud Sect disciples and ancient clansmen, refining them all into ghost servants to strengthen his "Eighteen Layers of Hell."

This time, Mutian planned to kill everyone here, refine them into ghost servants, open the third layer of the "Eighteen Layers of Hell," the Ghost Clan Gate, and summon the endless abyssal ghosts of the ghost clan.
