Chapter 139: Soul Clan Forbidden Land, The Heritage of the Soul Clan (Patreon)

In Gu Yuan's view, it was simply impossible to start a fight.

Even if it starts, he wasn't afraid at all.

Let the fight begin! There was an endless rage in his heart that needed to be vented.

The heritage of both clans was similar, so it was really hard to say who would win or lose in the end.

Upon learning that the Soul Clan was planning to attack the Gu Clan, the Gu Clan began preparations, standing in formation and ready to meet the arrival of the Soul Clan's army.

As for Hun Feng and Hun Yu, who were captured by the three immortals of the Gu Clan, they were thrown into the Gu Clan's dungeon and left unattended.

Originally, they were captured with the intention of using them as bargaining chips to exchange for Gu Xun'er. But Hun Tiandi didn't play by the rules at all.

There was no preparation or intention for an exchange, they were just going to launch an attack directly.

The strong members of the Gu Clan were prepared to face the enemy, and no one was willing to look after these two prisoners.

Although the Dou Qi within Hun Feng and Hun Yu's bodies was not sealed even in the dungeon, they didn't dare to escape. Did they really think they could escape?

No... it was simply impossible.

They were just two Dou Huangs, nothing more. Even if they managed to escape the Gu Clan's dungeon, so what? This was still the Gu Clan. Did they really think they could leave?

It was completely unrealistic.

The best thing they could do was to wait here, quietly waiting for their father and mothers to come and rescue them.

Rely on themselves to escape?

Not even worth considering!

Hun Feng leaned against the wall, looking at Hun Yu, and said, "Hun Yu, do you think the girl we saw back then was Gu Yuan's daughter?"

Hun Feng and Hun Yu also understood why the three Immortals of the Gu Clan had captured them.

It turned out that their Soul Clan had first captured Gu Yuan's daughter, and Gu Yuan, the patriarch of the Gu Clan, had planned to rescue his daughter during his father's wedding.

However, their own father had hidden Gu Xun'er too well, and they couldn't find her. So they could only resort to the plan of kidnapping them and using them as leverage to threaten their father into exchanging Gu Xun'er for their release.

That was the truth they had come to know.

Both of them were intelligent individuals, and upon hearing the name "Xun'er," they instinctively thought of the "Sister Xun’er" who had once captured their hearts.

The "Sister Xun’er" who had captured their hearts had a high possibility of being Gu Yuan's daughter, Gu Xun'er.

Upon hearing Hun Feng's words, Hun Yu also fell into contemplation and said, "Who knows?"

...

On the third day-

Today, the Soul Clan's army had completed their preparations. As long as Hun Tiandi gave the order, the entire Soul Clan would swarm out and attack the Gu Clan.

Hun Tiandi was not in a hurry to go to the Gu Clan. Instead, he arrived at a forbidden land within the Soul Realm. This place was extremely eerie, shrouded in black mist, and the mist obscured the surroundings that even the sky couldn't be seen.

Only the words "Forbidden Land" could be seen at the entrance.

Hun Tiandi looked at the scene before him and immediately entered the forbidden land, crossing through the black mist. He was greeted by another space, a space that was void and devoid of light.

This forbidden land was one of the Soul Clan's greatest secrets.

Half of the heritage of the Soul Clan was hidden here.

As Hun Tiandi stepped into it, terrifying auras pressed down on him. If it were any other Dou Sheng-level expert stepping into it, they would have been suffocated and forced to their knees.

Unfortunately... they were targeting Hun Tiandi.

These pressures were simply not a problem for him.

He remained calm and proceeded calmly, reaching the deepest part of the space. There, dozens of figures were sitting cross-legged.

They all wore black robes, and a faint aura emanated from their bodies, accompanied by a pervasive sense of death.

As Hun Tiandi walked in, all of these figures slowly opened their eyes and looked at Hun Tiandi.

In front of these dozens of figures were four elderly figures, who were the leaders of this group of powerful Soul Clan members.

When the four of them opened their eyes and looked at Hun Tiandi, one of them spoke in a raspy, unpleasant voice, "Clan Leader, why have you come here like this?"

They didn't get up or bow, but remained seated in a cross-legged position.

"Elders, I came here today to tell you that it is time for all of you to come out of seclusion," Hun Tiandi said in a calm tone. These four incredibly old guys were the four grand elders of the Soul Clan.

Each of them had been the Soul Clan's patriarch at some point, and they were even older than Hun Tiandi himself. They could be considered the ancestors of Hun Tiandi without any doubt.

Hun Yao, Hun Shengtian, Hun Yuantian, and another one called Hun Neitian.

All four of them were Eight-Star Dou Shengs and were the hidden powerhouses of the Soul Clan. Behind them stood dozens of other powerful individuals, each one a Dou Sheng and a hidden strength of the Soul Clan.

As the most mysterious ancient race, the Soul Clan's heritage was not something that the Gu Clan or any other ancient race could compare to. They simply didn't deserve it!

"Hmm?"

One of the four elders, Hun Shengtian, asked, "Clan Leader, have you obtained the eight pieces of the Ancient Emperor's Jade?"

These four old guys had long reached the end of their lives. The only reason they were still alive was that they were hanging on by a thread. They couldn't afford to make frequent moves.

They could only act at critical moments.

Because...

That would be their final move.

After Hun Shengtian spoke, the other three elders also looked at Hun Tiandi. He couldn't possibly be unaware that they only had one opportunity to make a move.

The fact that Hun Tiandi came here and asked them to act meant that he had likely gathered all the pieces of the Ancient Emperor's Jade. In the eyes of the four elders, there was a glimmer of expectation.

Even their eyes, clouded and lacking vitality, showed a trace of radiance at this moment.

"Hmm!"

Facing the expectant gaze of the four elders, Hun Tiandi nodded slightly, raised his arm, and with a swipe of his storage ring, the eight pieces of the Ancient Emperor's Jade appeared before him, spinning round and round.

"This... truly is the Ancient Emperor's Jade!"

The four elders were incredibly excited. They never expected that in their lifetime, they would witness the Clan Leader, Hun Tiandi, gathering all eight pieces of the Ancient Emperor's Jade. It seemed that the Soul Clan was about to produce a Dou Di.

And it wasn't far off.

After a moment of excitement, the four elders spoke slowly, "Congratulations, Clan Leader. We, the old guys here, congratulate you in advance on breaking through to the Dou Di realm."

"We never thought we would see a Dou Di emerge within the Soul Clan in our lifetime. We old guys can now die without regrets."

Hun Yao continued, "Clan Leader, if you came here to ask us to make a move, is it because you need us to restrain the other ancient races?"

In their view, for Hun Tiandi to obtain the Ancient Emperor's Jade from the other ancient races, the current Soul Clan must have paid a great price. It was certain that the Soul Clan had suffered heavy losses among its powerful individuals.
