Chapter 1816 The Soul Clan
Chapter 1816 The Soul Clan
"Get to the point!" the village chief said at this moment.
"This time, five saints have entered. Perhaps we can cooperate with them. If... we can wipe out the demons in the ancestral land in one fell swoop, I think..." The man said.
Immediately, someone retorted, "They are merely saints. How can they resist the Demon Emperor? If our cooperation fails, it will be a catastrophe for our Soul Clan. There are not many of us left."
"But if this continues, we'll be wiped out by the demons sooner or later!" the man said again.
"Moreover, they've already entered the ancestral lands, and most likely the demon realm. How can we cooperate? Should we send people in? What if they discover us..."
At this moment, Xiaoyue spoke up, "I sensed it. The souls of those people are very young. To be able to enter the Saint realm at such a young age is one of the reasons I'm shocked. And the Demon Clan! The core of the Demon Clan is the purest energy, which they can absorb!"
"I smelled an aura of extreme yang and strength on two of them. That's the essence of yang, which has a restraining effect on demons!" Xiaoyue said. "So I think we can take a gamble and help them hunt down demons, allowing them to improve. Once they reach the peak of sainthood, they might be able to rival the Demon Emperor! As long as they force the Demon Emperor to break his contract with us, that's enough!"
As Xiaoyue finished speaking, the crowd became agitated, and another argument broke out!
The sheer volume of noise made the clan leader drowsy again!
After a long while, the clan chief spoke up: "I think you are all right. It's just a matter of whether the pain is long or short. Since that accident many years ago, we have been unable to leave this place. However, our contract with the demons has always existed, and we have to sacrifice some of our clansmen to them from time to time. Now, my Soul Clan is on the verge of extinction!"
"This place is inherently evil. Even adventurers from outside wouldn't dare to venture here rashly. But these few hotheads have come, and I think this is indeed an opportunity for us!" the clan chief said. "Let's settle it like this! I'll select a few people to come with me to the ancestral land. Let's cooperate with them!"
Xiaoyue's eyes lit up slightly as she said, "Okay!"
"I disagree!"
"I don't agree either!"
The clan chief scoffed and said, "What's the use of your disagreement? I've decided to go. Anyway, if we die, you'll all die too!"
"So instead of arguing here, everyone go back and prepare your Horcruxes! Take out any good stuff you have! We'll be setting off in a bit!"
……
At this moment, on the third floor of the Dayan Pagoda!
After returning to the Dayan Tower, Lin Qianyu and the others remained in a coma.
Ye Qing frowned. He tried to communicate with them using his mental powers, but it seemed to have no effect.
This really gave Ye Qing a headache!
He waited for a long time at the Dayan Tower before the three of them gradually woke up! But they were still very weak!
"What exactly happened?" Lin Qianyu asked.
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Qing asked.
"My soul has been traumatized!" Ling Yingxue said. "It may take some time to heal. This place is indeed too eerie!"
Ye Qing nodded and said, "That woman is at the peak of the Saint realm. That smoke seems to be a bewitching smoke. Just one breath was enough to make you lose your fighting ability. If it weren't for my spiritual power and the fact that I have experienced the Tribulation of the Heart, I'm afraid I would have fallen victim to her trick too!"
At this point, he looked at Jiji and asked, "Are you alright?"
Jiji nodded and said, "It's nothing, I just felt a little dizzy, but I felt fine after I got used to it. If you hadn't put it away just now, I was going to take action!"
"What do we do next?" Long Rui asked.
Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Things seem to be getting a little out of control. I don't know if they are still guarding this area. If they are, it will still be very troublesome for us to go out. The main problem is that their attacks on the soul are hard to defend against, and you won't be able to make a move!"
This is giving Lin Qianyu and the others a bit of a headache!
Yes, they've already reached the Saint level. Facing such a peak Saint, they don't even have the right to make a move.
"Let's get you back to your normal mental state first!" Ye Qing said. "Once you're all back to normal, we'll figure out how to leave this place!"
The recovery of his mental strength took longer than Ye Qing had imagined.
Two or three days have passed, and the three women are still sitting cross-legged!
Ye Qing could only wait silently, while maintaining communication with the spirit of the Great Evolution Tower.
The spirit of the Dayan Pagoda can roughly sense a radius of one or two kilometers.
On this day, just as Ye Qing was waiting, the spirit of the Great Evolution Tower rang out, saying, "Master, Master, something bad has happened! Someone is coming!"
Ye Qing's expression shifted. He glanced at Jiji and said, "Jiji, I'm afraid we have to go out. We'll see how things go later. If we can fight, we'll fight and capture a few people to find out what kind of place this is. If we can't fight, you take me with you!"
Jiji nodded excitedly and said, "Okay!"
Without further hesitation, Ye Qing quickly emerged from the Great Evolution Pagoda and then put it away.
Sure enough, he sensed several auras rushing toward him. In almost two breaths, Ye Qing saw several figures appear in front of him!
There were six people in total: two elderly people, two young people, and two middle-aged women!
They were dressed in clothing that looked like animal hides, and the two young men carried bows and arrows, with some feathered arrows inlaid with red crystals on their backs!
Upon seeing Ye Qing and his group, the woman excitedly pointed at them and exclaimed, "Clan leader, it's them!"
"Clan leader?" Upon hearing this name, Ye Qing's heart sank. A horizontal blade instantly appeared in his right hand, and the intent of the blade spread out!
