Chapter 387 Return to Black Horn Region
With Emperor Hun Tian being "defeated" by Gu Yuan, the fear of the three clans of Lei, Yan, Yao and Gu clans towards Gu clan undoubtedly reached its highest point. In addition, the Gu clan obtained four pieces of Emperor Jade. Regardless of whether there were other conspiracies, the three clans regarded the Gu clan as the murderer. At least Gu Yuan already had this motive, and the facts were right in front of him.
No one expected that Gu Yuan, who had not made any move, had quietly reached the level of Half-Emperor. Even Emperor Hun Tian was no match for him. After a short fight, he was defeated and fled.
This scene really frightened the people of the three clans, and at the same time, it also made the Ancient Clan the only one in power, standing above all the other imperial clans.
This situation forced the three tribes to temporarily put aside their grievances and choose to cooperate with the Soul Tribe in order to increase the strength of the alliance and jointly fight against the Ancient Tribe. Naturally, the Soul Tribe would not refuse this, and soon the four tribes announced their alliance!
When this matter was reported to the Ancient Clan, Gu Yuan's expression was naturally extremely interesting. He did not expect the three clans to be so stupid. It was not the way a sheep walked into the tiger's mouth. The most important thing was that the Ancient Clan had tried to contact the three clans during this period of time and tried to explain something, but unfortunately they all failed. They had not even met the clan leaders of the three clans.
"Father, this matter is a foregone conclusion. In the eyes of the Lei, Yan, Yao and other three clans, father has already touched the semi-emperor level. Even Emperor Hun Tian is no match for father. In this situation, they will naturally choose to cooperate with the Hun clan and fight against the Gu clan together." Gu Xun'er sat on one side in a classical and dignified manner, her lips slightly opened, her voice clear and intellectual.
Compared to the past, Gu Xun'er is now much more mature, and the elegance between her brows has diminished a bit... There is an old saying that goes, a woman can only mature after experiencing a deep and unforgettable love.
"I didn't expect that Emperor Hun Tian would be so despicable that he would even resort to such despicable acting tactics." Gu Yuan sighed and shook his head slightly, seeming to be quite convinced by Emperor Hun Tian. If it were Emperor Hun Tian a thousand years ago, he would never have done such a thing.
“Now that things have come to this, we can only think of a way to break the impasse. Fortunately, the Xiao clan’s imperial jade has disappeared, otherwise the Soul clan would have really won… It’s a blessing in disguise.” Gu Dao, who was led by the three immortals of the Ancient Clan, stroked his white beard and spoke slowly.
"Father, I plan to go to the Xiao family to see if I can find some clues." Gu Xun'er looked at Gu Yuan and said in a serious voice.
"This is the only way." Gu Yuan nodded in response. There was really no better solution now. The Gu clan had lost all the imperial jades, and the other clans thought that the Gu clan controlled four imperial jades and were about to take action against them, but they didn't know that they had already become friends with the real murderer.
"Be careful, I will also keep an eye on the Soul Clan and other clans. As long as the Soul Clan dares to take action, we will be able to uncover the Soul Clan's mask!"
For now, Gu Yuan could only wait and see, not daring to take any other action, for fear that the three clans of Lei, Yan, Yao, and others would do something else.
"Yeah." Gu Xun'er nodded in response, then slowly stood up and stepped into the void that was slowly cracking in front of her.
Gu Yuan watched his daughter's back as she left, a trace of heartache in his eyes. He didn't know what role Yao Yan played in this, whether he really did that or it was all a disguise. But soon, he collected his thoughts and didn't continue to think about these things, because at the moment, he didn't have the energy to pay attention to Yao Yan.
Next.
He needs to keep an eye on the Soul Clan, Emperor Hun, and the movements of the three clans at all times. He just hopes that the three clans don't do anything stupid!
……
Northwestern continent, Izumo Empire.
As Yao Yan appeared again above the temple of the snake people, he instantly felt the majestic force of luck rushing towards him. The golden force of luck that only he could see all poured into his brows, rendering the vertical pupils in his brows a sacred golden color. At the same time, it also made the golden seal in it become more and more magical, as if surrounded by real dragons and phoenixes.
"Has the Northwest Continent been unified?" Yao Yan felt the power of destiny and had a general understanding of the situation in the Northwest Continent.
The power of luck is an extremely peculiar power that can help people break through, increase their perception, change their bones, etc. However, the side effects are also great, just like the power of cause and effect. If you bear the benefits brought by the power of luck, you will have to bear the consequences of the backlash of luck.
Once the unification of the Northwestern Continent is destroyed, these forces of luck will quickly dissipate, and one's own realm will also fall.
How you go up is how you will come down.
There will be many consequences.
However, Yao Yan obviously will not follow the path of luck. All he needs is to use the power of luck to transform the vertical pupil between his eyebrows. This vertical pupil, which was nurtured by the blood of the Soul-Swallowing Clan, has the potential to evolve and may evolve into a true holy pupil in the future.
The original book clearly describes what kind of power the holy eyes of the evil race from outside the domain contain. It is an ultimate power that contains the highest and strongest power!
Yao Yan didn't know why the blood of the evil spirit clan would undergo such a change in his body, but when he thought of the evil spirit clan in the universe... the evil spirit clan was the product of the combination of the evil clan from outside the domain and the people from the universe, and they possessed both evil and spiritual power. The most obvious feature was a crack on the palm of their hand, with an evil spirit eye in it.
"Evil spirit eyes?" Yao Yan thought of some plots in the Great Thousand World, his eyes flashed slightly. These secrets can only be figured out after he steps into the Great Thousand World. Right now, he still focuses on breaking through to become the Dou Emperor. Only in this way can he unify the Dou Qi Continent, gather all the power of luck into one body, and allow the vertical pupil to further transform.
After that, you can use the Douqi Continent as a springboard to enter the world!
Yao Yan pondered for a moment, and his figure disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he had entered the temple of the snake people and found Cai Lin and other women who were in seclusion there. When the women saw Yao Yan coming back, they all showed expressions of surprise.
Cai Lin's cold eyes also showed a touch of tenderness, as if she was relieved. She was indeed worried about Yao Yan, but with her personality, she never knew how to express this emotion. Her concern was always silent, with a bit of arrogance and stubbornness.
"We're finally back. I thought you didn't want us anymore~" Caidie blinked her bright eyes and spoke softly, flying in front of Yaoyan.
Compared with Cai Lin, Cai Die's love was more passionate. She did not hide her feelings at all. Her eyes were full of love, and almost full of Yao Yan.
"No one will abandon you." Yao Yan tapped Caidie's head and chuckled. Then he looked at the hot Zi Yan and said, "Zi Yan, I'll take you to see your father."
"?!" The moment Zi Yan heard the words, she was struck by lightning. Her smiling face now showed a hint of helplessness and bewilderment. She didn't understand why Yao Yan said that. Her pair of purple-gold eyes stared at Yao Yan blankly.
Father?
Does she still have a father?!
Upon hearing this, Cai Lin glanced at Zi Yan, then walked in front of Yao Yan with her slender legs, frowned slightly, and asked, "What's going on?"
“Don’t set foot in Zhongzhou in the next few years. If something unexpected happens, take everyone into the Heavenly Tomb… The Spirit Tribe and the Stone Tribe have been destroyed. The Thunder, Fire, and Medicine Tribes have already formed an alliance with the Soul Tribe. A war between the Emperor Tribes may break out next.” Yao Yan looked at Cai Lin and said in a deep voice.
Yao Yan's words undoubtedly shocked everyone. No one expected such a change to happen in Zhongzhou. Several major imperial clans were actually going to go to war! Before the women could come to their senses.
Yao Yan then looked at Zi Yan and continued, "Not long ago, I refined the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire and obtained some information about Zi Yan's father from his memory."
"He...he is still alive?" Zi Yan took a long time to accept the news. She bit her lip lightly and asked with difficulty.
"I'm not sure. I only know his whereabouts. He has been trapped in one place for nearly ten thousand years... But according to the lifespan of your Warcraft clan, he should still be alive." Yao Yan pondered for a moment and gave an ambiguous explanation.
Zi Yan was silent, her expression was a little complicated, there seemed to be resentment in her eyes, but also a little longing. Once upon a time, she also longed for family and hoped that she could be protected. Unfortunately, she waited day after day... and the final result was that she was alone.
It was not until she met her big brother Yao Yan that her life became cheerful. She no longer had to rush around to fill her stomach or compete with monsters for elixirs. Later, she even found her own tribe and became the new Dragon King.
"If you don't want to go, I can go first for you and see if he is still alive." Yao Yan looked at Zi Yan and said softly.
"No, I'll go with you, big brother!" Zi Yan's eyes suddenly became sharper when she heard that. She clenched her fist and said, "If that old man is still alive, let him give me an explanation. I want to know why he abandoned me... If the explanation doesn't satisfy me, big brother, help me beat him up!"
There was a fierce light in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was both longing for and angry at this father who suddenly appeared.
"Okay!" Yao Yan agreed directly, and then looked at Cai Lin and Cai Die, with a slightly apologetic look, and said: "After this battle is over, I will accompany you well, and then we will hold a grand wedding together!"
"I'll wait for you~" Caidie responded softly with anticipation in her eyes.
Cai Lin looked at Yao Yan quietly, as if she wanted to engrave the person in front of her deeply in her mind. After a long time, her red lips moved slightly, and her cold voice carried a tone of a queen's command: "Come back alive!"
"Of course, I value my life very much~" Upon hearing this, Yao Yan looked at Cai Lin's cold eyes, nodded slightly and chuckled.
Then he looked at Xiao Yixiang and Qinglin.
"gone."
After saying that, Yao Yan flew away with Zi Yan. As for the love between young men and women, there would be plenty of time in the future, so why bother with just one night of pleasure.
……
Black Corner Domain, Canaan College.
When Yao Yan brought Zi Yan here, Zi Yan was a little stunned. How could she not recognize this familiar scenery? She looked at Yao Yan puzzledly and asked, "Is my father here?"
"I also deduced it." After a pause, Yao Yan coaxed, "Your father coveted the inheritance of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor and was trapped in it. He became the guardian beast of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave. This level has lasted for nearly ten thousand years."
“Back then, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor refined the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and the Void Devouring Flame, and then disappeared inexplicably, leaving behind Tuoshe Ancient Emperor’s cave abode, and the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and the Void Devouring Flame were trapped inside. Later, they joined forces to break the seal and get out… I also learned about these things from the Pure Lotus Demon Fire’s memory fragments.”
"Combined with your birthplace, I was able to determine the location of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave... When I was refining the Fallen Heart Flame, I felt that there was something terrifying deep in the magma where the Fallen Heart Flame was!"
"It's just that I was busy with other things these years and didn't take care of this matter until I refined the Pure Lotus Demon Fire..."
Zi Yan frowned. She didn't expect there were so many secrets here. But now she obviously didn't care about these. She looked towards the location of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and said in a serious tone, "Then let's go down and take a look!"
With her current strength, there are very few things in the world that can bring her danger. Moreover, she has Yao Yan's company this time. Even if there is a dangerous place below, the two of them are enough to overturn it.
"Yes!" Yao Yan nodded, and then took Zi Yan into the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. With their current strength, it was naturally impossible for the people from Canaan Academy to discover them.
Along the way, they glanced at the grown Fallen Heart Flame seedlings, and then the two of them entered the magma. Yao Yan paused, sensed with his soul power, and found the Xiao clan's imperial jade that was hidden here that year.
He raised his hand and sucked it into his palm. With his current strength, there was no need to continue hiding it here. He then took Zi Yan and went deeper.
The two of them were extremely fast, and in just a cup of tea they arrived at the lizardmen's territory. The lizardmen seemed to have no idea what fear was, and when they sensed the arrival of Yao Yan and Zi Yan, a large group of lizardmen swarmed over, and in front of them stood two elderly lizardmen, both of whom had a semi-saint level of aura.
"There are actually semi-saint level beings here?" Zi Yan was also shocked when she saw this scene. After all, the strongest person in the Black Horn Region is only a Dou Zong. Who would have thought that such a group would exist underground in Canaan Academy.
"Human, this is the cemetery of God, not a place you can come to. Retreat quickly, otherwise you will wake up the guardian and be buried here forever!" One of the two white lizardmen spoke in human language. Although it was a little awkward, the intermittent voice was clearly heard by Yao Yan and Zi Yan.
"Cemetery of the Gods?" Zi Yan looked at Yao Yan. Now Yao Yan had predicted all of this correctly. Her mood had changed a little at this moment. She seemed too lazy to get entangled with these semi-saint lizardmen. There was a purple-gold halo flashing in her eyes, and the terrifying pressure of the Supreme Dragon Phoenix swept over her.
"Get out of here!" With a light shout, the shadows of the dragon and phoenix emerged from behind him. The terrifying pressure directly forced all the lizardmen to crawl down, each of them with a look of fear on their face and their bodies out of control.
"Brother, let's go!" Zi Yan took the lead and flew towards the depths of the magma.
Yao Yan followed closely behind.
Without the obstruction of the lizardmen, the road ahead was smooth, but the magma seemed to have no end. The two flew for several hours and still did not reach the bottom. However, Zi Yan's delicate body trembled slightly because she felt a call from her blood.
That old thing seems to be still alive!!
