I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, Am Admired By All Races

Chapter 304: Are You All That Eager To See Me?

Pfft!

The Grand Elder of the Spirit Clan reached out to grab the feathered plume. Boundless might erupted in his hand, like a miniature sun detonating in his palm.

The overwhelming power surged outward, completely blasting one of his arms into a spray of blood mist.

Half of his body was torn to shreds, blood pouring everywhere; even stark white bones were exposed. It was a horrifying sight.

"What’s going on?"

The Spirit Clan’s Grand Elder looked deathly pale and utterly miserable, yet he couldn’t spare any thought for his own injuries. Instead, he abruptly raised his head and stared into the void.

Deep in his eyes was an intense shock. For a long time, he failed to react, everything had happened far too suddenly.

No one had sensed it in advance.

They had thought that the appearance of Xiao Fan alone already spelled a great calamity for the Spirit Clan. Yet now it seemed the real threat was still to come.

That attack just now was not something just anyone could unleash.

To injure him to such an extent, the opponent’s strength had to be at least at the peak of the Saint realm, perhaps even a Saint King!

"Which... which Daoist friend is joking with the Spirit Clan?" The Spirit Clan’s Grand Elder spoke tremblingly.

There was a trace of grief and indignation in his voice.

That single strike had directly annihilated more than half of the Spirit Clan, yet he still had to force a smile and even try to brush it off as a joke.

Though he desperately wanted the other party to show themselves so he could fight them to the death, he simply didn’t have the courage. Some words could only be spoken after judging the situation and the place.

In the current circumstances, saying something like "Thirty years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, don’t bully the young and poor." wasn’t difficult—but once such words were spoken, that terrifying existence might very well strike again and inflict even greater devastation upon the Spirit Clan.

Offending a Saint was something the Spirit Clan did not fear; after all, they also had Saints.

What they truly feared was not knowing which Saint they had offended, if the entire Spirit Clan were to be secretly targeted by an unknown Saint, then no one in the Spirit Clan would ever be able to sleep peacefully again.

"By order of my master, I have come today to annihilate the Spirit Clan." A cold, immortal-like voice came from the distant void.

As soon as the words fell, the entire Spirit Clan ancient star suddenly erupted with brilliant light.

In the sky, it was as if a second sun had appeared, shining with dazzling radiance.

Unlike the first, this sun emitted seven-colored light, resplendent and blinding.

At the same time, a torrential pressure spread outward. In that instant, the entire Spirit Clan ancient star was completely enveloped.

On the ancient star, all living beings fell to their knees, unable to move at all. It was as if a massive mountain had been placed upon their shoulders, crushing them until they could barely breathe.

"An– annihilate the Spirit Clan?"

The Spirit Clan’s Grand Elder’s eyes widened. His aged body trembled slightly, as though he had just heard something utterly inconceivable.

Though he could barely remain standing, his legs felt weak and unsteady.

This pressure was far too terrifying.

Even a Saint felt an unprecedented oppression, as if facing an exalted, supreme existence. An instinctive sense of reverence rose unbidden in his heart.

He slowly raised his head and looked into the void, exclaiming in shock:

"Saint King?"

Earlier, when speaking of Xiao Fan, he had merely said it casually. Who could have imagined that beyond the Spirit Clan ancient star, a true Saint King would actually appear?

The appearance of a Saint King was utterly terrifying.

With her aura alone, she suppressed vast star regions; the void itself seemed to freeze. The Grand Teleportation Talisman in Xiao Fan’s hand was forcibly interrupted at the very last moment before activation.

Though the Grand Teleportation Talisman was powerful, before a Saint King, it was simply not enough.

Buzz!

Within the void, that seven-colored sun spread its wings.

In an instant, they covered the entire sky.

Its colossal body filled every corner of the void, vast to the point of making one tremble in fear. The Spirit Clan’s ancient star, once boundless and immense, seemed utterly ordinary at this moment.

In terms of sheer size, it was actually smaller than that golden sun by an entire margin.

Compared to it, a human body was incomparably insignificant—less than dust. If it were to beat its wings downward, there was no doubt that the entire Spirit Clan ancient star would be split cleanly in two in a single instant.

All the Spirit Clan’s experts understood that this was not the newcomer’s true physical form. To reach such a level with one’s actual body alone was something only a handful of races—such as the Kunpeng—could achieve.

The reason for this spectacle was most likely an illusion formed by the release of her overwhelming power.

Even so, it was still terrifying beyond words.

"May I ask, senior... who exactly is your master?" From the depths of the Spirit Clan’s back mountains, a deep voice rang out.

A gray-robed man stepped into the void and stood atop a mountain peak. His beard and hair were streaked with white, yet his eyes were unfathomably deep. The aura emanating from his body had already reached the peak of the Saint realm.

Behind him stood two more Saints.

Together with the Spirit Clan’s Grand Elder, that made a total of four Saints. If the Spirit Clan Saint who had entered the Abyssal Demons Burial Ground earlier had not fallen, then the Spirit Clan’s overall strength would have been terrifying to the extreme.

Very few forces could compare with the Spirit Clan. After all, five Saints, including one at the peak of the Saint realm, were not something just any faction could cultivate.

"May we invite senior’s master to appear and meet us?" The Spirit Clan’s Grand Elder also spoke, trying his utmost to defuse today’s crisis.

In his view, even a subordinate of the other side was already a Saint King. That meant their master’s strength was at least that of a Great Saint, or perhaps even a Quasi-Emperor.

No matter which possibility it was, everything that had happened today might simply be a misunderstanding.

After all, recently, the Spirit Clan had not provoked any existence so terrifying. Once the Saint King’s master appeared, they could appeal to emotion and reason alike.

Then, by bringing up the Xiao Clan, they might yet avert this catastrophe.

The Xiao Clan was a genuine Imperial Clan, with a Quasi-Emperor seated within it. Even a Great Saint—or even another Quasi-Emperor—would likely be unwilling to become enemies with the Xiao Clan.

"Heh."

At that moment, a soft chuckle sounded.

Everyone of the Spirit Clan, as well as Xiao Fan and the hidden Jiang Taixuan, all stirred and turned their gazes toward the distant horizon.

They saw, amid the boundless seven-colored divine radiance, a figure approached against the light, slowly strolling forward.

The newcomer was tall and slender, with hair like cascading waterfalls. His robes fluttered freely, like a banished immortal descending from beyond the nine heavens into the mortal world.

"So," A clear, resonant voice rang out as Li Xun stood with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing down upon the ancient star and the countless living beings upon it.

"Are you all that eager to see me?"
