Chapter 829 A glimmer of hope
Everyone's worries are not unreasonable.
Since the disaster in the ancient holy city was reported, the entire eastern region of Zhongzhou has fallen into unprecedented riots.
As the demonic energy from the direction of Dongzhou gradually invaded the eastern region of Zhongzhou, many people felt unprecedented heat and boredom rushing into their hearts.
Most people don't take it seriously and get carried away.
Even the few people who are keenly aware of the abnormality and immediately stop their practice will be shocked to find that a force that does not belong to them invades their meridians and pollutes their fighting spirit.
For a moment, everyone was in danger, and even if someone consciously avoided such a thing from happening, they could not prevent others who became obsessed with starting to attack indiscriminately.
Former friends were fighting each other with swords, brothers were fighting each other, the sect leader went on a killing spree and killed the entire sect, and there were also powerful men who were hidden in the world and turned the city into a thousand miles of red land in the madness.
It's okay for the ancient clan, which already has the power of a powerful fighting saint, at least to have the ability to suppress them, but the sects like those low-level fighting saints are often the most serious.
If this demonic energy enters the body, even a low-level Dou Zun may be hit if you are not careful. Once such a possessed Dou Zun appears, disaster will befall everyone within a thousand miles.
Three days have passed, and there is already a bit of blood smell in the air throughout the eastern region of Zhongzhou.
The first wave of obsession finally subsided under the suppression of all forces in the eastern region of Zhongzhou at all costs, and many people died.
But among the major cities, stability has barely been restored.
Many strong men among the ancient clan also helped a lot.
After all, a single Dou Sheng strongman is enough to stabilize the basic operation of a big city, but this is just a temporary solution, not the root cause.
And this is even just the fetal movement of the Spirit-Devouring Holy King who is in the void of Dongzhou. It has not yet revived, at least not yet. Even so, no one can withstand such devastation.
An elder among the ancient tribes was ordered to urgently activate the formations left by the ancient sages to isolate the evil energy, and laid them in major cities, hoping to bring some peace to the eastern region of Zhongzhou.
This method is effective. After all, even if you have never practiced, if you use Dou Qi, you will inevitably interact with the power of heaven and earth. In the current environment, this is an extremely dangerous behavior.
All in all, after three busy days, most areas in the eastern region of Zhongzhou, centered on several large cities, have at least returned to stability and will not be prone to such riots in a short period of time.
But even so, it still left them with lingering fears.
While helping, Xiao Yan and Yao Wan also took the time to contact Xingyun Pavilion and the Yao Clan.
Fortunately for the Yao Clan, the space itself created by Dou Emperor is not so easily invaded by demonic energy.
Although Xingyun Pavilion is a little worse, as a small plane, it has been successfully isolated from the outside world. Moreover, the speed of the spread of demonic energy is not that terrifying at the moment. The Yao Clan and Xingyun Pavilion in the southern region of Zhongzhou are safe for the time being.
But now that everything is safe and useless, Yao Wan can order to find the formations left by the sages, use them, and lay them out in advance, so that at least the two places can take precautions in the bud.
Not only the two core areas of the Star Realm and the Medicine Realm, but also the Tianxing Mountains and Shennong Mountains radiating around them, all need to be included in advance.
The preparations made now may come in handy later, and by then, it will be something that can save lives.
At present, the Yao Clan is adjacent to the Yan Clan and the Thunder Clan. I heard that the Yan Clan and the Thunder Clan have also made such arrangements soon. After all, the current situation of the Ancient Clan is vivid in my mind. Their family's strength is not as good as the Ancient Clan. If If I didn’t prepare well, I would probably cry when I turn around and there would be no place to cry.
After completing all this, many powerful people also returned to the ancient world.
Gu Yuan's eyes were obviously a little more tired, but even so, he was still the backbone of the ancient clan, the strongest here, and then he cupped his hands and said: "This disaster has come to an end now. The ancient clan and I are deeply grateful for your generous help.”
"Clan Leader Gu Yuan doesn't need to say much. His lips are dead and his teeth are cold. Now that we are all in the same boat, there is no need to say these polite words."
Yan Jin nodded, but he did not forget the key to this real harm.
After hearing this, everyone nodded secretly, and then Lei Ying said: "The king of the Swallowing Spirit Clan cannot be matched without Dou Emperor, and if you want to become Dou Emperor, I'm afraid you can only..."
Everyone was silent, no one would forget this. After all, not long ago, Emperor Huntian thought that this ancient clan was specially visiting the ancient clan. If he hadn't relied on Yaowan to counterattack an army, all the ancient jade in the hands of the eight clans would have been lost.
"...The inheritance of the ancient Emperor Tuoshe."
Gu Yuan's murmur broke everyone's suppressed silence. Yes, the ancient emperor Tuoshe left a legacy to become the Dou Emperor. This is a legend that has existed since the ancient jade spread. Because of this, the Tuoshe was originally divided into three pieces. The ancient emperor's jade attracted the covetousness of eight tribes, and they fought fiercely. The ancient jade was divided into eight parts, and each tribe held one piece.
"Right now, we have these six pieces of ancient jade in our hands...but there are still two pieces in the hands of the Soul Clan."
Yao Wan narrowed her pale golden eyes slightly, and she gradually began to have some guesses in her heart.
"...To destroy the soul clan now?"
Lei Ying and Yan Jin looked at each other, but shook their heads. Such an idea made people feel unrealistic just thinking about it.
Not to mention that the soul world was originally as erratic as a ghost, neither the Soul Emperor nor the Void Swallowing Flame were easy to deal with.
Gu Yuan could take down the Void Swallowing Flame, but he couldn't take down the Soul Heaven Emperor, and the Soul Heaven Emperor was a complete lunatic. If he didn't succeed as he wished, he would naturally have to take a few backers to his death.
Even thinking about it, it seems impossible to destroy the soul clan.
“…………”
The only road leading to Emperor Dou seemed to be cut off.
Yao Wan remained silent, while Xiao Yan looked at the man who lowered his head and said nothing, but some inexplicable thoughts emerged in his heart.
"If not, how about asking the Soul Clan directly?"
At this moment, Xun'er suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention in an instant.
"Xun'er, don't talk nonsense." Gu Yuan coughed slightly, looking a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to blame his daughter, so he just reminded her.
"...Perhaps Xun'er is really not talking nonsense?"
Yaowan slowly opened her light golden eyes, and even the dark golden pupils shrank slightly, and then said subconsciously.
But before the rest of the people could react, several clan leaders suddenly raised their brows and understood the meaning of these words.
Maybe, this method is not impossible...?
While the clan leaders were deep in thought, an urgent message came again.
"Reporting to the clan leader, someone from the Soul Clan is here, requesting to see the clan leader and other clan leaders to discuss major matters together!"
The man's voice spread throughout the hall, causing the whole place to burst into uproar.
"People from the Soul Clan actually dare to come to the ancient world at this time? How brave!"
"I really think that everyone in our clan is incompetent!"
"Clan leader, you must not do this. The Soul Clan is cunning and full of tricks. This time you seek an audience, you must have evil intentions!"
Unsurprisingly, strong opposition erupted from the many seats belonging to the elders of the ancient clan.
This is completely understandable.
After all, what the Soul Clan had done before was nothing less than a declaration of war to the eight tribes, destroying the Spirit Clan and plotting against the ancient jade. If they could not take the Soul Clan seriously, then they would be really short-sighted.
Gu Yuan shook his head. It seemed that not only them, but the Soul Clan also had this idea.
This is not surprising.
After all, Emperor Hun Tian is eagerly looking forward to becoming the Dou Emperor. Now that the ancient jade cannot be collected through force in a short period of time, he will naturally look for other methods.
At present, Dongzhou is in catastrophe, and Zhongzhou is in turmoil.
He didn't believe that Emperor Hun Tian could sit still.
"Let him in."
Gu Yuan waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said.
"This..."
The elders of the ancient clan looked at each other, especially puzzled by Gu Yuan's behavior at this moment, but since it was the clan leader's intention, they naturally couldn't say anything and became quiet.
In the main hall, the previous silence was restored again.
Until the sound of someone's footsteps broke the silence.
A stern man in black robes came forward, his figure was like a bell, his voice was not loud but it was clear enough.
“I’ve met Patriarch Gu Yuan.”
Xiao Yan and Yao Wan raised their eyes in unison, and they saw a familiar face, the Master of the Soul Palace, Hun Deisheng.
It's just that Hun Miesheng, who was particularly difficult to deal with before, is now just a slightly bigger bug in the eyes of Xiao Yan and Yao Wan, and his ashes can be scattered with just a slap.
"What other conspiracy has the Soul Emperor come up with? Tell me."
Gu Yuan looked at Hun Mie Sheng, but he spoke in a nonchalant manner, not to mention that he was too lazy to make excuses with the people of the Hun clan. They knew who each other was, and there was no need to do this.
Hun Mie Sheng smiled. Seeing that Gu Yuan didn't want to talk nonsense, he went straight to the point: "The world is about to be destroyed, Patriarch Gu Yuan."
"Because of the King of the Swallowing Spirit Clan?"
"If Emperor Dou doesn't come out, the King of the Swallowing Spirit Clan will be invincible."
The soul is dead and the life is dead.
"If Dou Qi Continent wants to avoid being destroyed and annexed, only the strong Dou Emperor can turn the tide."
"And if you want a strong emperor-fighter to appear, the inheritance of the ancient Emperor Tuoshe is indispensable."
"After a long time of trouble, your goal really hasn't changed from the beginning to the end."
Gu Yuan couldn't help but smile when he saw Hun Mie Sheng.
Hun Miesheng shrugged. In front of a truly peak powerhouse like Gu Yuan, his five-star fighting saint cultivation was not qualified to show off.
"What the leader of our clan means is that the eight clans hold the ancient jade together and open the door to the ancient emperor's cave together. How about that?"
As soon as the words of soul destruction came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
"Then the Soul Emperor means cooperation?"
"Exactly."
"What a joke! The soul clan is determined to destroy our clan, so what kind of cooperation are we talking about today? Such ambitions are ridiculous!"
