The title of God of Slaughter spread out in every territory in the vast sea of stars. During this time, the experts of every race told each other about a name: Shi Yan!
The Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, and Black Demon Clan turned frantic. All the surviving experts were deployed with Serene Prison, Edgar, Beverly, and Rupert to seek for Shi Yan everywhere. The four clans had joined hands. They set big rewards for anyone who could disclose Shi Yan’s location. They promised to gift an entire territory as a reward!
A whole natural territory!
The sea of stars became clamorous because of this!
Everybody knew the drastic catastrophe that had happened to the Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, and Black Demon Clan. Shi Yan’s homicidal mania and retaliation had enraged the experts of the four clans. At this moment, the Absolute Beginning Gateway wasn’t attractive to them anymore. They crossed their hearts to crush Shi Yan into powder first!
Serene Prison, Edgar, Beverly, and Rupert wanted to force Montecie and Hiro to tell them Shi Yan’s whereabouts and the planet that he had brought with him.
Thus, they didn’t hesitate to declare war against the Phantom Clan and the White Bone Clan! If Montecie and Hiro didn’t give them an answer that satisfied them, they would attack the two clans.
For the Absolute Beginning Gateway, Sauron had gathered the leading experts of those clans to discuss, but he couldn’t calm the situation.
His words couldn’t ease Serene Prison and the others’ wrath. Thus, they had to pause the Absolute Beginning Gateway’s affair.
Seeking for Shi Yan was the most urgent priority and the fixation in Serene Prison, Edgar, Beverly, and Rupert’s hearts.
At the same time, Yuan Zu continuously showed himself and stated that he was with Serene Prison and the other three. He was on the same side with the four clans. They all wanted to kill Shi Yan.
The sea of stars that had been peaceful for years now stirred up. The members of the Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, and Black Demon Clan began to depart to the territories of the Phantom Clan and the White Bone Clan. They were ready to war.
Montecie and Hiro got news of the horrible loss that the four clans had to bear. As they knew the others had lost so many experts, they weren’t afraid of this alliance of the four clans. They also ordered their clans to prepare for the coming war.
Among the Seven Great Clans, the Mysterious Sky Clan didn’t have a move because they couldn’t contact Han Tian and Judy yet.
The Mysterious Sky Clan hadn’t suffered from Shi Yan’s slaughter. It had become a knot in Edgar’s and Beverly’s mind. They guessed that Han Tian and Judy had formed a secret agreement with Shi Yan.
And that actually happened.
The entire sea of stars was boiling because of Shi Yan’s frenzied slaughter. All the races were hurrying to prepare for the coming war. They wanted to seize the chance to expand the territory.
As Serene Prison and Beverly had their fire of wrath burning harder, the atmosphere in many clans was very tense. The war would burst out in any minute.

Phantom Clan.
In a secret chamber situated deep underground, Shi Yan closed his eyes and breathed steadily. The unscrupulous aura like white mist fumed from his acupuncture points and filled the secret chamber.
Mei Ji was sitting next to her.
She was naked and sitting cross-legged next to Shi Yan. Her shining, creamy body was frosting and emitting a cold air that was chilly to the bone.
After a long time, Mei Ji woke up. Her bright eyes had filled with utter joy.
Deep in her soul altar, an Original Symbol hovered above a snowflake. It was a new Original Symbol that Shi Yan had refined for her.
Creating a soul hand, she fondled the Original Symbol represented her Ice power Upanishad and felt the supernatural ability “Frost” she just got. Under the effects of her Soul Consciousness, the wall and space in this secret chamber sounded of strange cracking noises. Shortly after, the entire world, including all matters and air froze and created a whole piece of crystal ice.
It was an ultimate supernatural power carved in her Original Symbol she had just got.
Previously, Shi Yan had quietly gone to the Phantom Clan without an eye noticing. He came to find her. They had crazy moments in this secret chamber. Then, he refined the energy and stabilized the negative emotions, using the Power Upanishad Symbol Tower to refine an Ice Original Symbol.
Mei Ji so thrilled when she got the Original Symbol. With this Original Symbol and the God power given by Shi Yan, her realm had reached the bottleneck. She needed a short time to accumulate and comprehend her new supernatural ability. Afterward, she could break through to Second Sky of Territory Ancestor Realm.
She couldn’t even dream of this fast progress before. But now, she got it all.
Mei Ji didn’t have time to think about Shi Yan’s slaughter in the four clans. At this moment, she needed to fuse the Original Symbol with her soul altar to stabilize her power Upanishad. Then, she would have time to think about the other matters.
However, at this moment, she got messages from Montecie. Montecie had called her several times asking her to get out of the secret chamber.
With passion in her eyes, she beheld Shi Yan. She understood that he had harvested an enormous amount of energy and that he had just spent a small proportion on refining her an Original Symbol.
She knew that he needed more time to absorb all the energy. She believed that when he woke up, he would reach an unimaginable level.
Mei Ji stood up and looked at the ambiguous bruises and marks on her body embarrassedly. She put on proper clothes.
After a flash, she disappeared from the chamber and reappeared in the meeting hall that the Phantom Clan often used to discuss important matters.
As soon as she walked out, her face changed immediately. “What happened?”
There were many faces that she didn’t often meet. They were the owners of different territories or the chiefs of clans dependent on the Phantom Clan. There weren’t many times when they came to the headquarters of the Phantom Clan in hundreds or even thousands of years. Today, they all gathered and wore stern faces. Montecie, Cantecie, and Fan De Lei were also present. All of them looked solemn. Seeing her, Montecie sighed in relief and said, “You took a long cultivating session this time. Anyway, you got out on time, right before the war.”
“War?” Mei Ji was puzzled, “What war?”
“The Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, and Black Demon Clan want to declare war against the White Bone Clan and our Phantom Clan. Previously, we wouldn’t dare to fight against them. But today, it’s a good opportunity!” Montecie sneered, “Shi Yan had seized the chance when the leading experts of the four clans were away to massacre their lands. They had to bear a severe loss this time. The power of a single clan can’t be our enemy. Since Dracula and his wife are back, the White Bone Clan is more powerful, anyway. Our two clans can join hands. Our combined force can resist the other four clans.”
“Why is that?” Mei Ji didn’t understand the situation yet.
“They want us to hand over Shi Yan. They demand to know the coordinates of Cloud Mist Territory. They want to kill Shi Yan at any cost and destroy Cloud Mist Territory to avenge their fellows who Shi Yan killed.” Montecie wore a cold face. “Let alone the fact that I don’t know where Shi Yan is, even if I did know, I wouldn’t tell them. This war is interesting to me. It’s good to fight. Perhaps, after this war, the Phantom Clan will become the strongest leading clan in this entire sea of stars!”
“I had a premonition that both sides will have to bear losses in this war. I don’t agree with you,” said a beautiful, slim girl standing by Montecie. She frowned and continued in a gloomy voice, “We shouldn’t declare war against the four clans because of Shi Yan. It will decrease the power of our own clan and the four clans altogether. We’d better tell them Cloud Mist Territory’s location. Just let them battle against each other.”
She was Cantecie, another Second Sky of Territory Ancestor Realm, Montecie’s blood sister. In the Phantom Clan, she had a position as high as Montecie.
“I’m not jealous that Shi Yan had taken Cloud Mist Territory. However, I also think that we shouldn’t join this battle this early,” said Fan De Lei by Cantecie, his face sincere. “Once it starts, it will be hard to end it. If the seven clans are going to decline because of this battle, it will be good for no one.”
Pausing for a while, Fan De Lei looked at his fellows and those who were dependent on his clan, and said seriously, “It’s related to every clan. I think all of us here have the right to decide. We can use the number of territories as the number of votes. Let’s vote to see if we should fight or not. If more vote for no war, we will give up on the aliens in Cloud Mist Territory. I think the Soul Clan and the others only want Shi Yan’s fellows. They won’t attack Cloud Mist Territory itself.”
He, of course, chose Cantecie’s side. Everybody knew that he hated Shi Yan for shooing him out of Cloud Mist Territory and taking Skyfall Star River, which he thought should belong to him. However, he said the truth.
The owners of the other territories and the leaders of the dependent forces agreed with Fan De Lei’s suggestion. They wanted to vote to decide this. Montecie was filled with anger in this boisterous crowd. She had agreed with Hiro to join hands with them and fight against the four clans. If those people didn’t want to do that, she would lose her face as she had gone back on her words.
At this moment, she envied Hiro. The members of the White Bone Clan were always united. They didn’t take sides in discussing matters like this. After they made an agreement, the entire White Bone Clan had begun to prepare for the coming war.
And her Phantom Clan was still discussing noisily if they wanted to fight or not.
As the great army of the four clans was approaching, if they didn’t prepare anything, they would fall into a passive situation.
“Shi Yan is here,” Mei Ji suddenly said and pointed at the ground. “He’s refining his energy in my secret chamber. Moreover, I got an Original Symbol from him. I’m not far away from Second Sky of Territory Ancestor Realm anymore. I have only one question. If you betray him, the Phantom Clan will become the next target. Our homeland will be trampled. Have you ever considered this consequence?”
Her words had shaken all the members of the Phantom Clan. The chiefs of the dependent clans couldn’t help but look at the ground, their faces filled with deep fear. In this short period, Shi Yan’s brutal name had spread far and wide. The God of Slaughter had terrified all races.
He dared to massacre the Soul Clan, Devouring Clan, Ancient Monster Clan, and Black Demon Clan to the last member. What else could he do in this world?
