Fully Prepared, the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda!
Qin Lu pondered for a while, but finally agreed, since this was the only way to obtain the Soul Dao Authority at the moment.
Even if the Ghost Duke were willing to relinquish his power, he would certainly not do so now.
Instead, they wait until Qin Lu has a certain foundation before abandoning him, allowing Qin Lu to take over smoothly, which would instantly narrow the gap with Xu Huai.
Only Qin Lu also becomes Daluo will he have the confidence to compete with Xu Huai on the same stage!
Qin Lu was aware of this as well; it all depended on how the Human Race's higher-ups would ultimately decide. But in any case, this operation would definitely be led by a Daluo.
However, Daluo won't participate; instead, he'll remain an observer to provide support. The one who truly needs to contribute is Qin Lu himself...
As for other personnel arrangements, members of the Vast Spirit Alliance should not be able to participate.
Qin Lu planned to form a three-person team with Qin Daoran and Qin Zhenyu. The Lightning Dao and Fire Dao had a certain restraining effect on the Soul Dao.
It would be perfect to have them go together.
As for Qin Zheng, his Great Dao has no special effect on the Soul Dao, and in addition, someone has to stay behind to guard the Great Qin Nebula.
It would be most reasonable for Qin Zheng to remain in charge.
As for the Human Race, Ye Qingzhu was not clear about the details, but the Daluo who led the team this time was the ancestor of the Withering and Flourishing Ye Clan, the Daluo of the Dao of Withering and Flourishing.
As for the other accompanying personnel, they are yet to be determined, but after all, the opponent this time is a powerful clan with as many as thirteen True Immortal in command...
Although Qin Lu, Golden Immortal of the Soul Dao, is present, it wouldn't be surprising if at least ten True Immortal True Immortal him, or even twenty.
Despite the fact that the Human Race star field appears to have only four nebula clusters and over seventy True Immortal, the actual number may be four to five times higher.
The most typical example is the Withering and Flourishing Ye Clan.
Their clan has more than ten True Immortal, but they form their own nebula and dominate their own star field, so they are naturally not in the Human Race's star field.
There are quite a few Lineage nebulae like this within the Human Race!
Even the Qin Humans Race, who became independent branches of the Human Race, numbered over a hundred, or even more diverse, and were simply a matter of rise and fall.
also--
There are also some True Immortal of the Human Race who are hidden in the shadows, or True Immortal who live in seclusion in a remote corner, or even some who are unknown to outsiders...
The total number of True Immortal of the Human Race is at least three hundred. Their branch clans have flourished in various parts of the heavens, and some True Immortal of the Human Race even act as spies, monitoring the movements of all races in the heavens.
Ye Qingzhu is an example of this type.
"Brother Ye, when will this operation begin? That way I can prepare accordingly."
"Soul Immortal are difficult to kill. Even if their True Spirit is erased, there may still be remnants of their soul fragments, and even then, the True Spirit may not be completely eradicated..."
"If it is not completely eradicated, it may become a threat in the future."
Upon hearing this—
Ye Qingzhu nodded in agreement. Last time, several Daluo made a move, yet the Soul Dao Taiyi still managed to escape.
This clearly demonstrates the troubles faced by True Immortal of the Soul Dao. Various hidden weapons of divided souls, or the difficulty in finding their True Spirit, can all lead to their rapid resurrection and return.
Up to now --
There has never been a case where Soul Immortal of the same realm was completely wiped out. Only when Soul Immortal fight each other can a kill between Soul Immortal of the same realm be achieved.
However, this is only a possibility, and even Soul Immortal cannot guarantee 100% success.
"This operation is scheduled for three months from now. The Human Race is almost ready. In order to minimize the harm left behind, the Refining Ancestor personally crafted a top-grade Profound Heaven Immortal Artifact!"
Name: Demon-Suppressing Pagoda!
"We only need to extract the authority and suppress their souls within the tower to ensure their souls remain immortal..."
"As long as their main soul remains intact, they will have no way to carry out any follow-up plans. Even if they commit suicide inside this tower, they will be saved by the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda."
"This is essentially a disguised form of imprisonment and sealing him away. Without the support of authority, and without his own death, he will naturally fall in power."
"Once their cultivation level drops, their lifespan comes to an end, and what awaits them is a natural death in their old age within the tower."
Ye Qingzhu was full of confidence. The efforts made by the Human Race to ensure the success of this operation were far more than they could be described.
Whether it's mobilizing the Daluo Immortals and numerous True Immortal, or Dao Ancestor of Refining personally forge a top-grade Profound Heaven Immortal Artifact...
The price to be paid is unimaginable.
Furthermore, to conceal the secrets of this operation, there might even be Fortune Dao Golden Immortal within the Human Race, who is covering up the truth for this mission.
As for other resources and manpower, they are countless...
Only the Human Race, a top-tier powerful race, possesses this strength. Of course, if this operation goes smoothly and creates a Taiyi, then we'll have recouped our investment!
You can even obtain numerous unclaimed worlds and vast amounts of resources...
These are all sources of profit!
It's enough to feed and nourish many beings of the Human Race, and it can also create many new True Immortal. The world is bustling, and everyone is driven by profit; this is the true nature of things.
Qin Lu had seen through some of the tricks, but he didn't care much for it. As long as he could take this opportunity to achieve the Taiyi of the Soul Dao, then everything would be fine!
Three months later--
At a certain spatial node, as space slightly distorted, three figures stepped into this spatial realm one after another. The newcomers were none other than Qin Lu and his group.
There, more than ten figures were already waiting...
Looking around, everyone was a stranger, except for Ye Qingzhu, who was a familiar face. The person sitting cross-legged above them, meditating, must be the Daluo of the Dao of Withering and Flourishing, the ancestor of the Withering and Flourishing Ye Clan.
There were also two other powerful beings, a man and a woman. The male cultivator was Zhao Sheng, a renowned Void-Refining Immortal under the Dao Ancestor of Refining!
He was Golden Immortal who Dao of Refining the Dao, holding a pagoda in his hand, which was presumably the supreme immortal artifact: the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda, and also the trump card used to annihilate the Void Soul Spirit Race this time.
The other female immortal, whose aura was ethereal and uncertain, was also a Golden Immortal.
However, his appearance was unclear, and there was no one who had ever heard of such a person among the Human Race. He was obviously a high-level cultivator who was being kept hidden!
As for the other fifteen True Immortal, most of them were ordinary Mystic Immortal, with only three or four possessing profound auras and being senior Mystic Immortal...
"This humble servant An Lu, and I greet Fellow Daoist Qin."
An Lu, the Golden Immortal cultivator, greeted Qin Lu and his group upon their arrival. Looking around at the other immortals, all of them were surrounding her, suggesting she held a very noble status.
"Fellow Daoist An Lu, you are too kind. The Vast Spirit Star Domain is under surveillance by many forces, making escape a bit troublesome, hence the lateness. I hope you fellow Daoists will forgive me."
Qin Lu returned the greeting politely, showing no trace of his demonic and mad side.
Upon hearing this, An Lu nodded slightly and then explained the operation plan to Qin Lu: "This operation will be led by me, with Senior Ye providing support. Unless there are unforeseen circumstances, he will not intervene."
