220: Two clan leaders, please consider this as soon as possible.
Chapter 220: Two Patriarchs, please consider as soon as possible.
As the saying goes, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse!
Although the Lei Clan and Medicine Clan had suffered heavy casualties in the previous war, their fundamental foundation remained. If they wanted to gather enough people to fight, they could still do it.
Coupled with the Cang Alliance led by Soul Cang and the people from the Dan Tower, it might not be possible to completely annihilate the Soul Clan, but making the Soul Clan pay a heavy price was almost certain.
Soul Cang was aware of this, but he didn't want to take this path. Facing Lei Ying and Gu Yuan, he said frankly, "I don't think so."
Lei Ying was anxious: "Why do you refuse? In the past, it was difficult for us to deal with the Soul Clan because their location was secret, and once they hid, we had nowhere to start. But you, you definitely know the Soul Clan's exact location. With you leading the way, the Soul Clan will have nowhere to escape. How can you refuse such a good opportunity? I suspect you have a conspiracy!"
Having just experienced a battle, Gu Yuan could completely understand Lei Ying's feelings, but they were discussing the next steps. He appeased, "Patriarch Lei, calm down and let Soul Cang finish speaking first."
Soul Cang nodded slightly: "Let me ask you a question first, why do you want to seize the tuoshe ancient emperor jade?"
Lei Ying looked disdainful and said dismissively, "It is said that in the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave, there are treasures that can allow one to become an Emperor."
Tuoshe Ancient Emperor was the last Dou Emperor on the Dou Qi Continent. His identity was mysterious, his origins untraceable, and after becoming an Emperor, he did not establish a family or have any descendants.
Previously, in an ancient ruin, some items of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor appeared, which stated that Tuoshe Ancient Emperor had left an opportunity to become an Emperor for everyone in his Gu Emperor Cave, and the ancient jade was the key to opening the Gu Emperor Cave.
At that time, powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent moved upon hearing the news, and fierce battles erupted.
After all, at that time, no Dou Emperor had appeared on the Dou Qi Continent for a long time.
After that battle, the tuoshe ancient emperor jade was divided into eight pieces, occupied by the Eight Ancient Clans.
Later, this matter slowly subsided. Each ancient race was unwilling to hand over the ancient jade, and some families even no longer cared about that opportunity, only ensuring that no one else had a chance.
Only the Soul Clan had always been thinking about this. Previously, Xiao Xuan of the Xiao Clan tried to become an Emperor with the strength of his entire clan, but unfortunately failed, and the Soul Clan was involved in it.
At that time, the Soul Clan was also after the tuoshe ancient emperor jade.
Gu Yuan had always known these things, including when Xiao Xuan specifically entrusted his orphan to him before his action, hoping that the Gu Clan could take care of the Xiao Clan if something happened to him.
Soul Cang continued, "Ultimately, everything was caused by the tuoshe ancient emperor jade. Can you guarantee that a joint operation can completely wipe out the Soul Clan and utterly kill the Soul Emperor?"
Soul Cang said the latter part while directly gazing at Lei Ying.
Lei Ying frowned.
It was impossible to be 100% certain. The Soul Emperor was not a fool; he wouldn't stand still and let others slaughter him.
Soul Cang said coldly, "If the Soul Emperor escapes, he will be like a pair of eyes in the darkness, constantly watching your ancient races, and of course, me too. At that time, everyone will have to live in fear. Do you want that feeling?"
Lei Ying felt a jolt of electricity run through his body.
Being targeted by someone whose strength was close to a Dou Emperor, even he himself probably wouldn't be able to sleep soundly.
Gu Yuan frowned in thought for a moment, then his brows slowly relaxed. He felt that Soul Cang's words made sense.
It's not about fearing the thief, but fearing the thief's constant Thinking of.
Especially a barefoot thief!
If the Soul Emperor was truly forced to that point, it would be good if they could kill him, and everyone could continue to live in peace.
But if the Soul Emperor escaped, the Ancient World might never be able to open again, and everyone would only be able to live like turtles, hiding within their clan boundaries.
Such a life would not be easy to endure!
Lei Ying understood his own misconception and asked, "Soul Cang, you've said so much, do you have any brilliant ideas? Feel free to speak directly."
A hint of a smile flashed in Soul Cang's eyes, but his expression remained calm as he said, "Since it's all about the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave, why not take this opportunity to open the Gu Emperor Cave directly? Everyone can compete for the items inside based on their own abilities. We can work together to block the Soul Emperor first, and then divide the remaining opportunities among ourselves."
Since his transmigration, he had finally seen an opportunity to become an Emperor. How could Soul Cang let it slip away?
Gu Yuan frowned and said, "I feel like it's too much of a gamble. What if the Soul Emperor snatches it away and achieves the Dou Emperor realm? Everyone will surely face a dead end then."
Lei Ying thought for a moment and hesitated, "Patriarch Gu is right, I also don't think this method is the best."
Soul Cang said indifferently, "This is the best way to force the Soul Emperor to show himself. He will definitely not miss the opening of the Gu Emperor Cave."
Gu Yuan looked up: "But now there is only one piece of jade left in the Gu Clan, and the initiative is already in his hands. Why would he accept our plan?"
If they actively proposed opening the Gu Emperor Cave, the Soul Emperor was not a fool; he would definitely guess that someone would set up traps around the Gu Emperor Cave.
Since that was the case, why not wait a little longer? At worst, he could deal with the others first, then deal with the Gu Clan, and take control of all the tuoshe ancient emperor jade himself.
Soul Cang waved his hand and said decisively, "You don't need to worry about this. I have a way. I'm not afraid to tell you, I know the location of the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave."
What?!
Lei Ying and Gu Yuan exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
For so many years, how many people had been searching and inquiring about the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave, eager to enter it, or to see if they could find some opportunities around it.
However, after such a long time, there was no news at all.
This work is organized and uploaded by ~ ~
The only clue might be to gather all eight pieces of tuoshe ancient emperor jade to have a chance to find it.
Lei Ying shook his head vigorously: "Impossible, Soul Cang, it's not that I'm bullying you, but I've eaten more rice than you've walked on the Dou Qi Continent. How could you possibly know the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave?"
Gu Yuan also had some doubts.
This news was too big; it was simply unbelievable.
Soul Cang said calmly, "I wouldn't joke about this. And, don't you find it strange why my strength has increased so quickly? Why can I suppress the Void Swallowing Flame?"
The two fell silent again, lost in thought. The more they pondered, the more they felt that Soul Cang was somewhat exaggerated, almost an unreal person.
After all, some clansmen with divine bloodlines in the clan had extremely exaggerated cultivation talents, and their strength advancement was far less than Soul Cang's.
What's more, if those people were to face the Void Swallowing Flame, they would probably be swallowed and burned to ashes in one encounter. As for making the Nine-Star Dou Saint realm Void Swallowing Flame suffer, that was even more impossible!
Gu Yuan put himself in Soul Cang's shoes. If he were to face the Void Swallowing Flame, he might be able to severely injure him, but he would definitely be injured himself. It would be impossible to be like Soul Cang, fighting the Void Swallowing Flame without any adverse effects.
Could it be that Soul Cang's growth was really related to the Tuo She Ancient Emperor's Cave?
Soul Cang smiled and said, "Two Patriarchs, please consider as soon as possible."
He had said almost everything he needed to say. It was impossible to expect the two to give an answer on the spot. They were both old monsters who had lived for many years, and their minds were very complex.
However, Soul Cang was confident that Gu Yuan would agree to his suggestion.
Because there was also Xiao Xuan.
At that time, Soul Cang had also told Xiao Xuan some things.
Watching Soul Cang's figure disappear into the void, Lei Ying and Gu Yuan exchanged glances, somewhat silent.
Gu Yuan thought for a moment and advised, "Patriarch Lei, since the Lei World can be found, staying alone is definitely no longer safe. I suggest you move your clan boundary near my Gu Clan. That way, we can look out for each other, and even if something like today happens again, the strength I can exert will be more than just this much."
Lei Ying nodded: "I understand, Patriarch Gu, rest assured, I will notify them shortly."
Gu Yuan then left. He found the Medicine Clan elder and went to the Medicine Clan through the passage. The Gu Clan members he brought followed the way they came and returned to the Gu Clan.
