Chapter 337 Chu Yang's Invitation! The Central Plains are about to change!
The Soul Clan made no effort to "atone" for Xiang Chuyang and the Yunlan Sect, and the Soul Emperor spared no expense.
Indeed, as he said, the Annihilation Gale was a treasure left behind by the first Dou Di of the Soul Clan, and it had been regarded as a trump card by the Mixed Clan for many years.
This thing is extremely powerful; if used unexpectedly, it can even severely injure a peak Dou Sheng expert.
However, Chu Yang directly absorbed it into his body, and the Annihilation Soul Gale didn't even cause a ripple, as if Chu Yang had just taken a pill.
The Soul Emperor even had some doubts about whether Chu Yang had reached the Dou Di realm, or was not the Half-Emperor as rumored.
"What's wrong? Did something go wrong with Soul Extinction?" Chu Yang asked with a smile.
The Soul Emperor then came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Emperor Chu, rest assured, my clan has already captured this fiend and awaits Your Majesty's decision!"
"Why aren't you bringing them up yet?"
The Soul Emperor turned and gave a low shout to the elders of the Soul Clan, and one of the elders quickly responded and left.
At this moment, the expressions of the Soul Clan elders were extremely solemn, because they had just seen that their clan leader's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
It should be noted that the Soul Emperor was a prodigy of the Soul Clan. If he had lived in ancient times, he would have definitely been able to break through to the Dou Di level.
Even in this "Dharma-ending Age," he can still be considered a hero of his time, having painstakingly planned for a thousand years, striving for that sliver of opportunity to ascend to the Emperor Realm, and has even seen a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, even though they were all one of the seven ancient races, the Soul Emperor never took the other six races seriously.
Even the sudden emergence of Chu Yang only made the Soul Emperor wary, fearing that he would ruin his millennium-long plan, which is why he wanted to appease Chu Yang.
The Soul Clan's high-ranking members were well aware that once the millennium plan was completed, the Soul Emperor would first target Chu Yang.
To put it bluntly, everything that happened today was just a play put on for Chu Yang by the Soul Clan.
Judging from the current state of the Soul Emperor, it seems that he has developed a genuine fear of Chu Yang!
Before this, Soul Emperor only felt that Chu Yang possessed some powerful means that could allow him to transcend the peak of the Dou Sheng realm and approach the Emperor realm infinitely.
But external forces are ultimately just external forces. If pushed to the limit, the Soul Clan will unleash all its resources and have no fear of fighting Chu Yang.
But now, the Soul Emperor knows he was wrong!
Whether it was Chu Yang revealing the secret of the Soul Clan in one sentence, or refining the Soul Annihilation Gale with ease, it undoubtedly showed that this person was far more complex than he had imagined.
A true powerhouse approaching the Emperor Realm, if the Soul Clan were to break ties with him, the best outcome would only be mutual destruction.
If anything goes wrong during this process, the entire Soul Clan will face utter destruction!
Chu Yang's methods have made the Soul Emperor realize that he must not allow Chu Yang to become an enemy of the Soul Clan under any circumstances!
We must not offend Chu Yang until the great cause of the millennium is accomplished!
Otherwise, all the planning and scheming will be in vain!
A moment later, the Soul Clan elder returned, followed by two Soul Clan powerhouses who were escorting Soul Extinction, whose entire body was bound by chains.
"Emperor Chu, I will grind this man to dust!"
A ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the Soul Emperor. He had originally planned to put on a show while secretly protecting Soul Extinction's origin and then find a way to revive him.
This is something the Soul Clan excels at, but now the Soul Emperor has changed his mind.
On one hand, he feared that the Soul Clan's methods wouldn't be able to hide from Chu Yang; on the other hand...
He felt that if he could use Soul Extinction to quell Chu Yang's anger, it would be a worthwhile deal, so why create unnecessary trouble?
"Then let's do it!" Chu Yang looked relaxed and composed, his eyes filled with a mixture of mockery and pity as he looked at Hun Miesheng.
Throughout the entire affair, he had an almost godlike perspective, fully aware of both the psychological changes in Hun Miesheng and the true attitude of the Soul Clan.
Chu Yang had no intention of interfering in the Soul Clan's millennium-long plan, nor did he ever think of annihilating the Soul Clan in one fell swoop.
Only by keeping the Soul Clan alive can Xiao Yan be put under enough pressure to grow up as quickly as possible.
Moreover, even if the Soul Emperor ultimately succeeds and breaks through to the Dou Di realm, Chu Yang is confident that he can destroy him single-handedly.
It was precisely because he knew that the Soul Clan was just putting on an act that Chu Yang exposed the Soul Clan's secret and revealed his ability to easily refine the Annihilation Soul Gale.
With this deterrent, the Soul Emperor and the Soul Clan will surely put aside their many schemes, and at least until he breaks through to the Dou Di realm, they will not cause any more trouble for Chu Yang and the Yunlan Sect.
At the same time, Chu Yang also cornered the Soul Emperor, forcing him to turn the charade into reality and completely annihilate Soul Extinction, leaving him with no possibility of resurrection.
But Hun Miesheng was clearly unaware of this until the moment before Hun Tiandi destroyed his physical body and obliterated his last wisp of soul. Only then did Hun Miesheng realize it, but it was too late.
Watching the last wisp of Soul Extinction's soul dissipate, Chu Yang nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "It seems the Soul Clan is indeed very sincere!"
"However, now the entire continent knows that the Soul Hall has launched a massive attack on my Yunlan Sect. I have come here personally to demand an explanation. If the Soul Hall still exists on this continent..."
"That would probably make me lose face!"
Chu Yang looked at the Soul Emperor with a smile, but anyone could hear the threat in his words.
The Soul Emperor's eyelids twitched. His original intention in establishing the Soul Palace was to collect souls from all over the continent for the Void Devouring Flame to devour and refine, helping him to forge an Emperor-level soul.
Although this goal has now been achieved, the Soul Palace's influence is spread throughout the continent, bringing enormous benefits to the Soul Clan every year. If they were to give it up now, the Soul Clan would naturally feel the pinch.
However, circumstances forced them to submit. Under the overwhelming power of Chu Yang, the Soul Clan had no choice but to yield.
Let alone dismantling the Soul Palace, even if Chu Yang made an even more outrageous request, the Soul Emperor would agree.
The grand plan for the next millennium is just one step away from completion, and we absolutely cannot afford any mishaps at this crucial juncture.
Once he breaks through to the Dou Di realm, he can settle all old scores regarding salary and benefits. But until then, the Soul Clan can only retreat again and again.
With this in mind, the Soul Emperor bowed and said, "Please rest assured, Emperor Chu, that Soul Destroyer has turned the Soul Palace into a mess. My Soul Clan will naturally not allow any subordinate forces that are beyond our control to continue to exist!"
"In three days, the Soul Palace will cease to exist, however..."
The Soul Emperor paused, gritted his teeth, and continued, "The assets of the various halls of the Soul Palace will need to be confiscated by our friends from the Cloud Mist Sect!"
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but admire the Soul Emperor.
This person possesses remarkable courage and shrewdness, and his level of forbearance is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
If it weren't for Xiao Yan being the variable, the Soul Emperor might have actually led the Soul Clan to dominate the continent, or even invade the Great Thousand World.
Gathering his thoughts, Chu Yang smiled and nodded, saying, "In that case, let's wipe the slate clean between the Yunlan Sect and the Soul Clan. I hope the Soul Clan will be able to restrain its members in the future."
"After all, you all wouldn't want me to come and visit again, would you?"
The Soul Emperor waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I dare not! The arrival of the Chu Emperor brings great honor to the Soul Realm; it is a great fortune for our Soul Clan!"
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "Let's skip the formalities. Until we meet again!"
After he finished speaking, the space beside him trembled, and then a spatial rift appeared, which Chu Yang stepped directly into.
This scene made the Soul Emperor's eyelids twitch once again.
This is the Soul Realm, protected by arrays, and the space is extremely solid. Yet Chu Yang was able to tear through space and leave with a wave of his hand, which means that the Soul Realm's defenses are useless in front of him!
…………
After leaving the Soul Realm, Chu Yang went directly to the Pill Tower.
Before leaving the Jia Ma Empire, he had Tang Huo'er follow Old Monster Lin through a spatial teleportation array to the Dan Tower ahead of him.
In the small world of the Pill Tower, Chu Yang spent three days completely refining the Annihilation Soul Gale and integrating it into the power of the Wind Spirit.
At this point, two-fifths of the upgrade of the Five Elements Power has been completed.
After leaving the pass, Chu Yang contacted Pangu again and the Black Tower, instructing Nalan Yanran to send people to collect the Soul Palace's "property" throughout the mainland.
Previously, although Yunlan Sect did not face much pressure regarding resources, its continuous expansion had led to a situation where it could barely be self-sufficient.
After absorbing all of the Soul Palace's resources, the Yunlan Sect will no longer need to worry about resources, and will truly possess the resources of a top-tier power.
In the small world of Danta, in a pavilion.
This is where the elders of the Little Pill Tower hold their meetings. At this moment, Chu Yang is standing by the railing on the top floor of the pavilion, gazing at the distant medicinal fields.
Tang Huo'er led Lin Laoguai over and said softly, "Teacher, Elder Lin has arrived."
Chu Yang turned around, smiling, and asked, "Senior Lin, how did the six ancient clans respond?"
Old Man Lin laughed heartily and said, "Having heard that the Chu Emperor is about to grace us with his presence, how could the six ancient clans dare to turn him away?"
"But they're all on tenterhooks now, afraid you've come with ill intentions!"
Before going into seclusion, Chu Yang asked the Pill Tower to help him send visiting cards to the six ancient races, the three magical beast races, and all the first-class forces in the Central Continent.
Chu Yang's plan to visit these top powers on the mainland one by one caused quite a stir in Zhongzhou.
All the powerful figures were speculating whether this number one person on the continent wanted to reshuffle the top forces on the continent in one fell swoop.
For this reason, all the major powers were on tenterhooks, making numerous arrangements in preparation to receive them with the highest level of protocol.
On the other hand, they each kept their most outstanding young talents hidden away.
In this way, even if Chu Yang comes with ill intentions, they can at least retain some fresh blood and ensure the continuation of their lineage.
"What about the three races of Warcraft?" Chu Yang asked again.
Old Man Lin said with a strange expression, "They seemed to really want you to come, and they almost fought each other over which clan could get there first!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "It seems they already know about Xiao Xiao's matter..."
Old Man Lin nodded. In fact, the reaction of the three ancient races was not hard to understand.
Chu Yang's ability to cultivate a sixth-tier magical beast to the Dou Sheng level in just a few years in the remote Jiama Empire is a fatal temptation for the three races of magical beasts.
They prided themselves on their noble bloodline and believed that any random member of their clan was far more talented than Xiaoxiao.
Therefore, in their view, as long as they cling to Chu Yang's coattails, wouldn't everyone in the clan be able to become a saint in the future?
In fact, Chu Yang was indeed capable of doing this, and for him, it was almost effortless.
As long as the bloodline limit of the magical beasts is high enough to withstand the peak fourth-generation beast bodies, he can create Dou Sheng powerhouses in batches.
"Which clan do you plan to visit first?" Old Monster Lin asked curiously.
Chu Yang thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's go to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan first!"
Old Man Lin was taken aback, somewhat puzzled.
After all, in terms of strength, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan is currently the strongest, and even with its internal strife, the Ancient Dragon Clan of the Void is still a notch above the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
He was a little puzzled. Why did Chu Yang choose the weakest one of all?
However, he naturally had no doubt about Chu Yang's decision and immediately said, "Then I'll send someone to inform him right away!"
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "No need for that trouble, I'll set off now!"
"Fire, let's go!"
Tang Huo'er was stunned for a moment, "Me...me too?"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "My visits to the various powers were entirely for your sake, so of course you should go!"
"For me?" Tang Huo'er was even more confused.
Chu Yang didn't say much and directly led the bewildered Tang Huo'er into the spatial wormhole.
After the two left, Old Monster Lin murmured thoughtfully, "It seems that the Central Continent is indeed about to change. I just wonder how many forces besides my Pill Tower can remain unscathed?"
He suddenly felt a sense of relief, relieved that Danta and Chu Yang had established a good relationship, and even more relieved that Xuan Kongzi had only gone out for a short while and was able to "pick up" a benefactor for Danta.
…………
Beast Realm, Nine Nether Abyss.
This is one of the passages from the surface to the underground world, and it has been occupied by the Nine Netherworld Python clan since ancient times.
Although the Nine Netherworld Python clan's defensive forces were practically useless to Chu Yang, he did not sneak in quietly. Instead, he led Tang Huo'er and swaggered to the entrance of the Nine Netherworld Abyss.
"stop!"
Two Nine Netherworld Python Clan Dou Zong guards stepped forward to stop them, their expressions quite wary.
Chu Yang chuckled softly, "Please inform them that I have come to pay a visit."
Upon hearing that they had come to visit, the two men's expressions softened considerably, and then they realized that the name "Chu Yang" sounded somewhat familiar.
After a moment, one of them was the first to react, his whole body suddenly trembled violently, and then he knelt down on the ground with a thud.
His companions were even more bewildered by his reaction.
The man kneeling on the ground gritted his teeth and said, "Fool! Why haven't you paid your respects to the Emperor of Chu?"
The man snapped back to his senses, his knees buckled, and he knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly. "We were unaware of the Emperor's presence! We have been extremely rude; please forgive us!"
Chu Yang's lips twitched slightly. Although his reputation was very prestigious, judging from the reactions of these two people, it seemed as if he were a ruthless killer.
He was naturally unaware that, on the continent today, whenever the name "Emperor Chu" was mentioned, the first thing that came to mind for everyone was...
It was the ability to forge a sword in a corner of the world, wipe out nearly ten thousand powerful figures with a wave of the hand, and even frighten away the heavenly tribulation with a glance.
Moreover... looking at Chu Yang's many deeds after his rise to power, he is indeed ruthless in killing people!
"I'm here to pay a visit, not to cause trouble, so why are you acting like this?"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Go ahead and inform them. I'll wait here." (End of Chapter)
