Chapter 586: The Star Region Collapses Wu Tian vs. Hun Miesheng
"I'd like to see just how powerful your so-called multi-flame fusion is in your hands!"
Hun Miesheng took a single step forward in the void, immediately drawing the attention of every being within the Star Region.
"Wu Tian… today is the day you die!"
His footsteps came to a stop about a hundred feet away from Wu Tian.
His expression remained calm, his demeanor composed.
Clearly, even now, Wu Tian had yet to earn a place in his eyes.
Even as the battle outside raged, with countless deaths on both sides, Hun Miesheng remained completely unfazed.
This was the mindset of a supreme ruler a man who had absolute confidence in his own power.
A man who had never been shaken, no matter how chaotic the world around him became.
This was the true power of the Hall of Souls' Master.
Their gazes locked.
Though neither of them had moved yet, their souls clashed invisibly in the void, their overwhelming auras colliding in a silent struggle.
Both of them possessed unparalleled soul strength.
Hun Miesheng, as the Master of the Hall of Souls, had a soul that far surpassed even some Dou Shengs stronger than him.
This was precisely why he had risen to such a high position within the Soul Clan.
"Heh… Hun Miesheng, one should be careful not to speak too confidently.
After all, arrogance often leads to humiliation."
Wu Tian's voice was calm, a faint smile playing at his lips.
"Is that so? The Hall of Souls has never left loose ends.
Only the weak worry about such things.
Those who truly wish to achieve greatness never hesitate."
Hun Miesheng laughed lightly, a hint of admiration in his gaze.
At that moment, everyone watching from the Star Region understood
This battle would shatter this realm!
One was the Master of the strongest faction on the Dou Qi Continent.
The other was the Leader of the strongest alliance to ever rise against them.
This battle would determine the fate of both sides.
"Wu Tian, do you know? Because of you, the Soul Clan has doubted me for years.
Back then, when I sent men to the Jia Ma Empire to capture Xiao Zhan, my original intention was to wipe out everyone connected to him."
"But due to my own cultivation at the time, my subordinates got careless.
They left loose ends and that's how you were able to rise!
Though I don't know where you truly come from…
To reach your level in just ten years…
That alone proves you're worthy of being my opponent."
Hun Miesheng's expression grew complicated.
There was doubt, admiration… and a strange sense of kinship in his eyes.
If he had eliminated Wu Tian earlier, none of this would be happening now.
"You're wrong.
From the very beginning, the Hall of Souls never had the ability to kill me."
Wu Tian's voice was cold and absolute.
And it wasn't arrogance.
It was the truth.
The Hall of Souls could never have killed him.
But they could have harmed those around him.
Back then, Wu Tian was always by Xun'er's side.
If the Hall of Souls had sent even a single Dou Zun, it would have triggered an all-out war with the Gu Clan.
And at the time, the Soul Clan wasn't ready.
That's why they had only sent a Dou Zong-level Protector Wu, instead of a Dou Zun or Dou Sheng.
Had they done otherwise, the Eight Ancient Clans would have declared war right then and there.
This was also why they had used Cloud Mist Sect as a proxy.
Even Iron Protector Tie, sent to the neighboring Chu Yun Empire, had only acted indirectly.
Hun Miesheng let out a weary sigh.
It was obvious he understood this now.
But still…
If he had taken just one of Wu Tian's women hostage
Such as Queen Medusa, whom Wu Tian cherished the most
Then things might have played out very differently.
Unfortunately for Hun Miesheng, he didn't know that Medusa would never leave Wu Tian's side.
If they had never been enemies, Hun Miesheng would have genuinely respected Wu Tian.
To take a small Snake Tribe and turn it into a force capable of challenging the Hall of Souls…
That was something even he might not have been able to achieve.
"Letting you reach the Central Plains…
That was my greatest mistake.
So today, I will correct it."
As he spoke, a dark light flickered in Hun Miesheng's eyes.
A terrifying killing intent slowly radiated from his body.
"Indeed… it's time to settle this."
Wu Tian's voice was calm, but it carried an overwhelming chill.
"Come then!"
"Let's see how strong the legendary Cai Lin Pavilion Master truly is!"
BOOM!
The moment Hun Miesheng's words fell, their auras collided in an earth-shaking impact.
The sheer force of their clash ripped through the Star Region itself!
Without even making a sound
The space around them shattered.
The once brilliant Star Region instantly collapsed…
Revealing the skies of Holy Pill City beneath them.
As Wu Tian and Hun Miesheng appeared in the open sky
Every fighter in the city stopped in shock!
"Master!!"
"Alliance Leader!!"
Both factions let out cries of astonishment.
No one had expected these two legendary figures to truly collide in battle!
Meanwhile, those who had been inside the Star Region
Gu You, Old Monster Qing Hua, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen
Were blown out by the sheer impact of the explosion.
Fortunately, they were all completely unharmed.
Wu Tian had protected his own.
Hun Miesheng had done the same for the Hall of Souls' members.
After all, his true goal was to wipe out the Heavenly Court Alliance!
With Gu You leading the charge
And with four Dou Zun elders backing him
Wu Tian's side was instantly at a disadvantage.
The biggest problem was Gu You himself
A High-Level Half-Saint, capable of going toe-to-toe with Yao Chen!
As for the four Dou Zun elders…
They weren't nearly as dangerous, but their presence only added to the chaos.
The battle grew even bloodier.
It was one of the most brutal battles in centuries.
But the real victims…
Were the civilians of Holy Pill City.
The Hall of Souls had descended upon them without warning.
Some of the weaker ones didn't even bother resisting
They simply waited for death.
Others, however, saw an opportunity.
They immediately joined the fight against the Hall of Souls
Knowing that if they didn't fight, they would be slaughtered anyway.
As for trying to defect to the Hall of Souls?
That was impossible.
The Hall of Souls had no interest in recruiting them.
They only wanted their souls.
But the destruction of the Star Region had unleashed something else
Something far more terrifying.
From the collapsing space
An immense, flaming figure emerged.
A monstrous presence radiated from its body.
Everyone turned in horror
Because the one that had just been set free…
Was none other than
The Three Thousand Burning Flames!!!
