Spirit Clan Incident
Old Monster Lin brought news that surprised everyone...
"The Spirit Realm has opened..."
This seemingly random statement left Venerable Lei and the others completely baffled, wondering what kind of riddle the old monster was trying to utter.
Seeing this, Old Monster Lin realized he had been too hasty. He calmed himself down and slowly explained the reason.
It turns out that the Gu Clan had previously held a grand gathering, inviting the Eight Ancient Clans and other powerful forces from the Central Plains as guests.
As the number one alchemist force on the continent, the Pill Tower was naturally among those invited.
It was Old Monster Lin who led the group there at the time...
At that grand gathering, Old Monster Lin also learned by chance that the Spirit Realm of the Spirit Clan, one of the Eight Ancient Clans, had been closed for some unknown reason, and that there had been no news of it for quite some time.
However, at that time, the news was only circulating among some major powers, and no one knew what had happened, so the news did not spread.
Originally, neither Old Monster Lin nor Pill Tower paid any attention to this news, since it concerned the Eight Ancient Clans and had little to do with them, and they were unwilling to get involved.
But who knew that a few days ago, a powerful figure accidentally discovered that the Spirit Realm had reopened, and that all the restrictions around the world had disappeared, making entry very easy...
This abnormal phenomenon caught the attention of the powerful being. After entering the Spirit Realm, he discovered that the small world, which should have been inhabited by a race of countless beings, had become completely empty, with no one in sight. Even the descendants of the Spirit Clan had vanished without a trace!
Looking at the empty and lifeless space, the powerful figure suddenly felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet to the top of his head...
This is really too bizarre!
You should know that within the Spirit Realm, including the descendants of the Spirit Clan, there are at least several million people, right?
However, so many people have simply vanished into thin air?
This is no insignificant little force...
The Spirit Clan, also one of the Eight Ancient Clans, has been gradually declining in recent years. Among the Eight Clans, apart from the Xiao Clan whose bloodline has been exhausted, they are the weakest.
But even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse; no matter how much the Spirit Clan has declined, it can still squeeze into the ranks of the super powers of the Central Plains ...
If we're talking about genocide, then looking across the Central Plains, even powerful clans with supreme Gu Clan would find it difficult to wipe out an entire race without anyone noticing...
Of course, for many forces, this is not a big threat, since they are still far from this level.
However, when this matter reached the ears of the other ancient races, it undoubtedly caused a huge shock!
At this moment, all races immediately dispatched their strongest warriors to the Spirit Realm; however, no matter how they probed, they could not find a single member of the Spirit Clan ...
This situation is as if the Spirit Clan had completely and utterly disappeared during the period when space was tightly sealed...
And they left no trace whatsoever!
After hearing Old Monster Lin's account, Venerable Lei and the others exchanged incredulous glances, their hearts filled with shock.
"What kind of being could do something so heinous?" Yun Yun couldn't help but ask.
For a kind-hearted woman like her, although she was used to the rule of the strong on the continent, the disappearance of such a race was still quite shocking.
Old Monster Lin shook his head silently, paused for a moment, and then said, "Although there is no evidence whatsoever, in the entire Dou Qi Continent, there are only two beings capable of achieving this level of skill..."
"The Soul Clan, and the Gu Clan..."
Currently, this is one of only two forces on the continent that possess a supreme powerhouse like a nine-star Dou Sheng.
And the only thing capable of silently annihilating an ancient race is probably a Nine-star Dou Sheng level expert.
Upon hearing these two names, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
This matter may not have a significant impact on other forces in the Central Plains, but it is something that the Four Directions Pavilion and the Pill Tower cannot ignore...
Old Monster Lin said with a solemn expression, "Because of the Spirit Clan, the remaining members of the Eight Ancient Clans all have different thoughts now."
The weaker Stone Clan and Yao Clan are like frightened birds; their relationship is bound to change soon...
At this point, Old Monster Lin looked up at Venerable Lei and then said, "The Soul Hall hadn't had any stronger members make a move before. Although we don't know the exact reason, it's still somewhat related to the agreement between the ancient races..."
"In the past, although the Soul Clan was powerful, the other clans worked together to exert a great deal of checks and balances on the Soul Clan, making it difficult for the Soul Clan's powerful members to take action easily..."
Now that this has happened, a rift will definitely form between the Yan Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Gu Clan. That would be tantamount to loosening the shackles around the Soul Clan's neck, which would be extremely bad for both our families!
At this point, Venerable Lei and the others present finally realized the seriousness of the matter and understood why Old Monster Lin, the Great Elder of the Pill Tower, had come to the Four Directions Pavilion in such a panic...
If the Soul Clan were to truly free up their resources, then their Four Directions Pavilion and Pill Tower would undoubtedly be thorns in their side, something they would most want to eliminate...
Now they're all in the same boat...
"Where is Pavilion Master Mo? How can we meet with him? This is a very important matter, and we must discuss a solution face-to-face. Otherwise, our two families may suffer the same fate as the Spirit Clan," Old Monster Lin said solemnly.
Before Venerable Lei could speak, Yun Yun's expression shifted, and she took the initiative to say, "Mo Tang is currently in seclusion, and we don't know when he will be back. However, since Great Elder Lin, you are here, we might as well discuss the matter of an alliance..."
Although it might seem a bit presumptuous for Yun Yun, the Flower Sect Leader, to say such things at this time.
Everyone present knew that this woman was one of Mo Tang's women, and in fact, she was the first wife. Therefore, in many cases, her words actually represented Mo Tang better than those of their teacher, Venerable Lei.
Although the sudden turn of events involving the Spirit Clan caught everyone off guard, for Yun Yun and the others, it was a good thing as it could directly promote the Pill Tower's entry into their alliance...
However, judging from this incident, the alliance of the two major forces in Central Plains alone is still somewhat insecure. If they could also win over the top forces in the Beast Region, such as the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan and the Nine Netherworld Nether Python, then they would have a certain degree of self-protection...
However, such matters can only be discussed in person after Mo Tang emerges from seclusion, and these human powerhouses probably have no say in the Beast Region.
