Chapter 585 Rebuilding the Glory of the Soul Palace!
Yang Shan gave the guardian Wu a look.
The guardian Wu stepped forward immediately.
It's too late to make tea.
But there were a lot of drinks and desserts in the ring of the guardian Wu!
Yang Shan grabbed a handful of melon seeds:
"You go on."
"Wait for me to slow down."
The soul-dead man drank three cups in a row before continuing:
"In that war, not only the Twelve Ancient Clans, but also the transcendent forces of Zhongzhou at that time, joined in the battle."
“Although the Soul Clan is strong, at that time, the patriarchs of the four major clans, the Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Spirit Clan, were all in the late Nine-Star Dou Sheng! And the strongest person in Zhongzhou at that time, Qian Cang Qingsheng, was also in the late Nine-Star Dou Sheng! The founders of Danta and Fenyan Valley both broke through from the peak of the Eight-Star Dou Sheng to the Nine-Star Dou Sheng during that long battle!”
"Although our Soul Clan is strong, we are ultimately outnumbered and are forced to activate the formation to hide our clan land. The Soul Palace has also retreated with it. The people in the Soul Palace don't even dare to reveal their identities, for fear of causing disaster!"
At this point, Hundan's expression became particularly heavy:
"According to the records in our ancient books, after our defeat, we began to keep a low profile. Every five hundred years, we only dared to secretly send our geniuses to Zhongzhou. However, they would always be found by the geniuses of other ancient tribes or the forces in Zhongzhou that participated in the war at that time."
"My clan suffered heavy casualties and was on the verge of extinction!"
"Until three thousand years ago, a major event occurred in Zhongzhou that the top forces in the entire Douqi Continent did not want to recall!"
The ghost paused deliberately, wanting to make Yang Shan scratch his ears and cheeks because he could not hear the rest of the story.
As a result, the guardian Wu was scratching his head, while Yang Shan was still peeling melon seeds!
The idiot had no choice but to organize his thoughts and continue telling the story.
More than 3,500 years ago, a strange race called the "Soul Devouring Clan" suddenly appeared in other regions of the Douqi Continent.
This strange race has the ability to devour the blood of others to strengthen their own blood.
This bloodline naturally does not only refer to the "Dou Emperor bloodline", but also the bloodline constitution that transcends traditional creatures.
Ancient wild beasts and their bloodlines can both be considered “special bloodlines”.
In addition, after any living being enters the Fighting Saint (ninth level), its flesh and blood will possess immense vitality and energy!
The essence and blood of the Fighting Saint is a legendary item that is comparable to an eighth-grade or even ninth-grade elixir. If you refine it, your cultivation level will definitely increase greatly!
In other words, once one achieves the status of a Dou Sheng, his bloodline itself has already transcended that of traditional creatures, and stepping into the realm of a Dou Emperor can allow this bloodline to be completely upgraded to the "Dou Emperor bloodline", thereby allowing the "clan members" related to his bloodline to gain immense benefits.
After the Soul-Swallowing Clan gradually grew stronger, they came to Zhongzhou from all over the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest, and began to plan to "hunt" the powerful Fighting Saints!
However, the Soul-Swallowing Clan rose to prominence in the barren land and did not possess the ability to go head-on with the Dou Sheng powerhouses, and the Dou Shengs in Zhongzhou were basically hiding in the dark.
Therefore, the Soul-Devouring Clan set their sights on the geniuses of the Wild Beast Family, an ancient clan that had been in power for 500 years at the time!
In that situation, the Soul Clan didn't even dare to send out the new generation to seize the opportunity.
The Soul Clan kept a low profile for a full thousand years.
In these thousand years, so many things could have happened.
Other ancient clans that once joined forces to besiege the Soul Clan, and even the forces in Zhongzhou, now have new grudges against each other.
During the great event 3,500 years ago, the Soul-Devouring Clan kept taking actions in secret, causing unprecedented losses to the geniuses of all forces!
As a result, the conflicts among the other eleven ancient races except the Soul Clan and the top forces in Zhongzhou widened.
The Soul-Devouring Clan also took advantage of that opportunity and made a lot of money.
Afterwards, the Soul-Devouring Clan used war to support war, and finally began to attack the Fighting Saint.
It was not until three thousand years ago, when another great trend began, that the Soul-Devouring Clan finally entered the vision of all major transcendent forces.
However, the greed and decisiveness of the Devouring Spirit Clan far exceeded the expectations of these transcendent forces.
Hiding in the dark for hundreds of years, constantly devouring and fighting to support fighting, the Soul-Devouring Clan three thousand years ago seemed to be even more powerful than the Soul Clan five thousand years ago!
They found the ancestral lands of two of the eleven ancient tribes and devoured all the people in the two tribes, including their descendants!
The bloody cruelty of the Soul-Devouring Clan makes many transcendent forces tremble with fear.
Compared with the Soul-Devouring Clan, the most powerful Soul Clan five thousand years ago seemed to be "law-abiding"!
As a result, the nine ancient races, the major transcendental forces in Zhongzhou, including the overlord of the Warcraft clan, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and the major wild beast clans, all joined the war!
But the Soul-Swallowing Clan was built on fighting to survive. When the major forces did not have the determination to fight to the death in the beginning and gave the Soul-Swallowing Clan some breathing space, more Fighting Saints emerged immediately from the Soul-Swallowing Clan!
And the number of Nine-Star Fighting Saints has increased from four at the beginning to seven!
Just the two ancient tribes that were devoured allowed the Soul-Swallowing Clan to nurture two Nine-Star Douluo!
But even so, the Soul-Devouring Clan is still using tricks.
They framed the Soul Clan, trying to make other forces think that the Soul Clan was allied with them, and make the Soul Clan a pawn to consume other forces.
The Soul Clan was forced to show up.
In order to prove his innocence, the then young patriarch of the Soul Clan, "Hun Tianyang", showed astonishing courage and convinced most of the Soul Clan's senior leaders to not join forces with other forces, but to use the Soul Clan's strength alone to fight against the Soul Devouring Clan.
Other forces saw that the weak Soul Clan was retreating step by step, with countless casualties.
If left unchecked, the Soul-Devouring Clan, which swallowed up the Soul Clan, will inevitably increase in strength again.
By then, the entire Douqi Continent will be devastated!
They can only choose to believe in the Soul Clan!
Among the ten ancient tribes, there are eight nine-star Douluo!
Four thousand five hundred years ago, the four old patriarchs of the Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan, the Lei Clan, and the Ling Clan made further progress in their cultivation and reached the peak of the Nine-Star Fighting Saint!
Zhongzhou has also produced many talented people over the past 1,500 years.
Among the major transcendental forces, in addition to the strongest man of the older generation, Qian Cang Qingsheng, who has reached the peak of the Nine-Star Fighting Saint, there is also a Duantian Daosheng, who has been constantly fortunate enough to have leapt from the Seven-Star Fighting Saint to the Nine-Star Fighting Saint within a thousand years, and together with Qian Cang Qingsheng, he protects Zhongzhou!
As for the Warcraft side, the overlord of the Ancient Taixu Dragon is led by the previous Dragon Emperor Zhu Qian, who is at the peak of the Nine-Star Fighting Saint level, and the current Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun, who is in the late Nine-Star Fighting Saint level!
The coalition of transcendental forces put all their efforts into a fierce battle with the Soul Devouring Clan in the Endless Sea.
The Soul-Devouring Clan was ultimately defeated, and only less than a hundred members were left!
The price paid by the coalition of transcendent forces is also shocking.
Almost all the powerful fighters from two ancient tribes were killed.
Several wild beast families were also wiped out!
The Soul-Swallowing Clan's leader, along with the three remaining Nine-Star Douluo and less than a hundred Soul-Swallowing Clan members, activated a mysterious formation and attempted to escape.
The Alliance of Supernatural Forces is afraid that the Soul Devouring Clan will make a comeback and must kill them all.
But the space crack opened by the mysterious formation was as deep as a black hole.
No one knows what will be in it or whether there will be a way out.
At the critical moment, Zhu Qian, the previous Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, stood up!
Taixu Ancient Dragon is born with the power of space. If you want to explore this mysterious black hole and hunt down the Soul-Devouring Clan, it is safest to have Zhu Qian!
But he alone is not enough.
The Soul-Swallowing Clan, including the clan leader, has a total of four nine-star Douluo!
The two nine-star Dou Sheng peak powerhouses in Zhongzhou, Qiancang Qingsheng and Duantian Daosheng, resolutely decided to go!
The ancestor of Fenyan Valley also decided to go.
At this time, the Soul Clan stood up again!
The Soul Clan's old patriarch and his younger brother, one at the peak of the Nine-Star Douluo, and the other at the late stage of the Nine-Star Douluo, both expressed their willingness to hunt down the Soul Devouring Clan, but the precondition was that all previous grievances between the Soul Clan and the major forces would be written off!
Four nine-star Dousheng peak powerhouses from the Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Ling Clan also decided to go.
Other forces also sent a number of Dou Sheng powerful warriors to accompany them.
Not long after, the mysterious black hole of the Soul Devouring Clan disappeared, and the many powerful men who had hunted down the Soul Devouring Clan never appeared again.
But in the past three thousand years, the major transcendent forces have not discovered the Soul-Devouring Clan again.
The two ancient races that lost all their fighting saints fell into decline. They closed their clan space and isolated themselves from the world.
From then on, the twelve ancient tribes became the eight ancient tribes.
The Soul Clan suddenly lost two nine-star Douluo, and its strength was greatly reduced. It was no longer the leader of the ancient races.
The young clan leader, Hun Tianyang, was ordered to become the clan leader. He changed his name to "Hun Tiandi" and vowed to break the shackles of Dou Sheng, become Dou Di and bring the Hun clan back to its peak!
The Xiao clan, which also lost its old patriarch, was succeeded by Xiao Xuan, who had divine blood.
The new patriarch of the ancient clan, Gu Yuan!
The new leader of ThunderClan, Lei Ying!
The new patriarch of the Yan clan, Yan Jin!
The new clan leaders are all the pride of their generation. They have participated in the 500-year trend since they were young, and have been competing with the geniuses of their generation from other ancient races and wild beast families.
Among them, Xiao Xuan is the most powerful, followed by Emperor Hun Tian. Gu Yuan has a very good relationship with Xiao Xuan. Lei Ying of the Thunder Clan was defeated by Xiao Xuan several times and has many complaints against Xiao Xuan.
Yan Jin of the Yan clan had once fought with Xiao Xuan over a strange fire.
Time flies.
The fresh blood that is constantly nurtured in the entire Douqi Continent has also become top powerhouses who can stand on their own and even protect a region through the baptism of the great trends of five hundred years one after another.
But time makes people grow old.
Having lost its ancestors, Fenyan Valley has never had successors who can shoulder the heavy responsibility, and its power has declined from "superb" thousands of years ago to "first-class" today.
The founder of Danta, who was a late-stage nine-star Douluo, also disappeared in the long river of history.
But Danta has a special status in Zhongzhou. Even now, it is still a transcendent force in Zhongzhou!
Three thousand years ago, the Soul Clan settled their grievances with other forces and rebuilt the Soul Palace!
Unfortunately, past grudges can be settled, but time will always create new connections between countless lives!
The feud between Emperor Hun Tian and Xiao Xuan led to tension between the Xiao and Hun clans.
It just so happens that Xiao Xuan and Gu Yuan are good friends, and Gu Yuan often lends a helping hand to Xiao Xuan.
Not only has Emperor Hun Tian been suppressed to the point of having no temper, but the key is that other forces are still wary of what the Hun Clan did during its heyday.
Therefore, they are also quite wary of the Soul Clan.
Emperor Hun Tian understood the current situation of the Hun Clan and decided to keep a low profile and develop in a low-key manner.
As a result, the Soul Palace does everything in secret.
The general trend of the past five hundred years seems to be a "stimulant" for grudges.
Since the Soul Clan is low-key, the Xiao Clan, which is already high-profile, naturally attracts the most attention.
The Xiao clan is full of talented people, and every time there is a 500-year boom, the new generation can make a lot of money.
You know, even if it's a five hundred year trend, the opportunities and resources are limited.
If the Xiao clan gains more, then other forces will gain less!
So now, the Xiao clan is the most feared existence by many transcendent forces.
As for the Soul Clan
The fear that the transcendental forces have for the Soul Clan is limited to the Soul Clan's secret soul skills.
As for the Soul Clan itself.
The Hun clan is still "trembling in fear" under the Xiao clan!
The story was almost over, and Hundan felt a little depressed. He drank the drink in the cup as if it were wine, and then said:
"It was then that I understood that even though Liezu was a great Dou Sheng, he still had problems that he couldn't solve. Every time there was a 500-year trend, the Xiao clan's geniuses would often cause trouble for my clan's geniuses. From time to time, the geniuses from other forces would also clash with my clan. After all, resources had to be fought for, and when they fought, grudges would arise."
"You can fight if you want. In the past five hundred years, the leaders of all the major forces have set rules. The problems between the geniuses should be solved by themselves, and each force can only protect their lives! But my Soul Clan has the Soul Palace, a large stronghold in Zhongzhou, which naturally becomes the foothold of my genius in Zhongzhou. If those geniuses with grudges come, a war is inevitable."
"But those people often chase us to the Soul Palace branch! Liezu cleans up the butts of my clan's genius! He has been doing it for three thousand years!"
"Six times, six times! A large number of Soul Hall branches are destroyed every five hundred years."
Hundan leaned back in his chair and looked up at the sky:
"Actually, after I knew these things, I took the initiative to ask Liezu to rebuild the Danghun branch hall. Although the branch hall that my eldest brother took over was also destroyed, it was much better than mine. When I was in the clan before, I had relatively few contacts with people. I only knew that the clan had strict rules, but I didn't know that my clan was carrying such a heavy burden."
"In the past, only my father was kind to me. Later, I met my grandfather and even my great ancestor, and I found that they were actually very kind to me. My great ancestor is a five-star Dou Sheng, and he was willing to listen to me, a seventh-grade bloodline, nagging for a long time. He also encouraged me to do it boldly and said that he would protect me if something went wrong. If I lost, he would also let me practice with peace of mind without having to worry about being targeted by my eldest brother."
Having said this, Hundan stood up and took the initiative to bow ninety degrees to Yang Shan:
"I'm sorry, Cheng E, I lied to you."
Yang Shan: "You lied to me? What did you lie to me about?"
Hundan: "Uh, I said before that my eldest brother's branch temple is even more dilapidated than mine."
Yang Shan said calmly:
"Oh? Did you say that?"
Hundan: "Why do I feel like crying?"
Hun Dan wants to cry, but Yang Shan really wants to laugh now!
Through the narration of the soul-dead, Yang Shan has basically sorted out the timeline of the Douqi Continent in the game for the past five thousand years!
To put it bluntly, Tianyao Company's planning is based on the background of the original work and expands the background in detail.
Yang Shan was very suspicious that Tianyao Company, which made the game with great care, even made detailed designs for what happened every year in the five thousand years before the background of the Doupo game!
They even "made up" things that happened tens of thousands of years ago in great detail!
After all, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor was a figure from ten thousand years ago, and the Wanbao Ancient Emperor that Yang Shan knew about lived even more tens of thousands of years ago.
Although it is time-consuming and laborious to accomplish this task with planners taking the lead and AI programs expanding on it, it is indeed feasible.
Of course, there is no need to consider things that are too far in the future for the time being.
After knowing the changes in the situation of the transcendent forces in the entire Douqi Continent over the past five thousand years, the most obvious point is:
After experiencing the peak of his career, he committed suicide, became a coward, was framed, and proved himself. Then there was a great war, and the peak strong men of the old generation disappeared.
Finally, there was the hostility between Emperor Hun Tian and Xiao Xuan.
Yang Shan had no idea what the internal situation of the Soul Clan, which had been keeping a low profile, had reached.
But at the very least, the "branch" of Soul Palace is not as strong as in the original book!
It can even be said that one's hands are tied.
The Soul Palace must collect more souls and provide more "nutrients" to the Soul Clan without attracting too much attention from other transcendent forces.
As for whether this "nutrient" is used to supply the "Void Devouring Flame" that helps the Soul Clan continue their bloodline in the original work.
There are more than just strange fires in the game. Yang Shan now absolutely does not believe that Tianyao Company will not do more with the strange things in the world!
Therefore, Yang Shan did not plan to think about the matter of Tushegudi Jade in the original novel for the time being.
As for the current situation of the Soul Clan, if it is really the same as in the original novel, with the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade and the eight ancient clans each holding one, then who knows when the Soul Clan will be able to complete the "Millennium Plan" in the original novel.
Maybe the Tushe Ancient Emperor inheritance designed in the game is not opened by the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade at all!
Besides, even if we consider these things, we have to wait until he becomes a Fighting Saint!
Before the battle, it is useless to consider.
Let’s focus on the current Soul Palace!
Five thousand years ago, the Soul Palace was a powerful force in Zhongzhou, but now it is in ruins.
The five hundred year trend is approaching, and the Soul Palace is now in great need of talent!
To restore the glory of Soul Palace, Cheng E has no choice but to do it!
