Subduing the Earth Soul Clan
Time passed slowly, and Lin Mu recited one scripture after another.
The light around him grew even stronger, exuding Immortal Qi aura and Sacred Aura.
He was like Heavenly God descended to earth, inspiring awe and reverence.
The giants standing beside him looked on with even greater admiration.
Their attitude toward Lin Mu also changed.
They practically regarded Lin Mu as the spokesperson for the Nether Emperor.
In the future, he will be able to lead his clan to the pinnacle.
Lin Mu did not act too abnormally.
Because he knew that this Secret Canon was very difficult, and it would be extremely unreasonable for him to act too extravagantly.
So he stopped reading when he got to the sixth Secret Canon.
That was enough for him.
Everyone present couldn't help but gasp.
Not only did they thoroughly study the Secret Canon, but they also mastered six of them.
Such a level is truly extraordinary.
Lin Mu slowly opened his eyes.
The light near the Tower Body gradually subsided and soon returned to normal.
However, the way the giants standing next to Lin Mu looked at him completely changed.
The giant sitting on the throne had an excited expression on his face. He stood up and came to Lin Mu.
He slowly knelt down and immediately said, "On behalf of the Earth Soul Clan, I submit to you!"
Lin Mu's expression suddenly changed.
He simply wanted to acquire Contracted Nether Beast to cultivate Martial Skill.
Unexpectedly, they subdued two races in such a short period of time.
The many figures outside the Spirit Platform had expressions of horror in their eyes.
They also knew how extraordinary Lin Mu was.
What they didn't expect was that their ancestor would directly submit to Lin Mu.
This shows that not only Di Youxue needs to obey Lin Mu's command.
This applies to the entire Earth Soul Clan.
Because their race is extremely united, most members obey the leader's orders.
Even if a small number of people felt resentful, they dared not show it.
The giant figure before them could almost represent the Earth Soul Clan.
Di Yan took a deep breath; he knew why his ancestor had made this decision.
When our ancestors followed the Nether Emperor, they actually had some reservations.
Therefore, they were not decisive enough and had selfish motives.
This also prevented their Earth Soul Clan from soaring to the heavens like the Lord of the Underworld River.
This is tantamount to giving their clan a second chance.
Our ancestors naturally didn't want to miss out.
Although this is somewhat risky.
But to survive in a place like the Netherworld, one must be prepared to burn one's bridges.
"With my current cultivation level, I am simply incapable of leading your race!" Lin Mu said.
"Just because it's not possible now doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future! Moreover, as your strength grows, there will be many situations where you'll need our clan's help!"
"The Netherworld is vast, and the area covered by its Order is also very large. It is difficult for you to expand your territory by yourself alone. However, if you are willing to take our clan into your fold, we will be your sword in the future, helping you to cut through the thorns!" the giant said earnestly.
He was well aware of Lin Mu's potential.
Given time, even if they wanted to submit, they might not have the opportunity.
Lin Mu pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.
What he said makes a lot of sense.
After reading through these Secret Canon, Lin Mu also gained some understanding of the Netherworld.
The Netherworld covers a vast area, no smaller than the Mortal World.
This is equivalent to the Second World.
If Lin Mu could gain control of this place, his combat power would be absolutely terrifying.
However, even the Nether Emperor couldn't fully control it back then, and could only borrow a portion of the power of Order. It's really hard to say to what extent Lin Mu can achieve it.
"Thank you!" the giant said respectfully.
"Consider it an investment you've made in me! Although I don't know what the future holds for this investment, I will definitely repay your clan if I have the ability in the future!" Lin Mu said.
"Yes!" the giant replied.
That's exactly what he was waiting for Lin Mu to say.
By gambling with the fate of their entire clan, weren't they hoping to encounter a miraculous adventure?
Lin Mu immediately said, "I need three Contract Beast now, can you help me choose one?"
The giant nodded.
He stood up and looked toward Di Yan.
"From this day forward, the Earth Soul Clan belongs to Lin Mu, and his orders are equivalent to my orders!"
Di Yan knelt on the ground and nodded slightly. "Understood!"
"The leader should find a three-headed Contract Beast, the greater its potential, the better!" the giant said.
"Yes!" Di Yan nodded.
Afterwards, Lin Mu chatted with the giant for a few more minutes before leaving.
They were merely remnants of souls, unable to remain active for long.
After leaving Spirit Platform, Lin Mu was treated almost like a clan leader and moved into the most luxurious room.
However, their understanding of luxury is rather one-sided.
In human society, such a room would be considered a three-star hotel at best, but in the Netherworld, it is extremely rare.
About an hour later, Di Yan led several people to the door of Lin Mu's house.
Lin Mu walked out. Among the three figures, one was Di Youxue, and the other two were a man and a woman, whose auras were almost identical to Di Youxue's.
What caught Lin Mu's attention was the woman.
She has scales on her body and two horns on her forehead, clearly indicating that she is not Earth Soul Clan.
They seem more like Dragon Clan.
Di Yan also spoke at this moment.
"Our Earth Soul Clan mainly lives underground and rules over many underground races, one of which is the Earth Dragon Clan."
"Their race is incredibly resilient, can control the earth, and possesses extremely fast movement speed."
"And this person is the most talented young member of the Earth Dragon Clan."
"At only 170 years old, he has already reached the Third Grade, and in the future, he will at least Seventh-Rank Cultivation."
Lin Mu nodded slightly.
Third Grade! Just right for him.
Moreover, different Contract Beast bring different powers.
Choosing Contract Beast from the Earth Dragon Clan is also a good option.
