Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor Yan, please restrain yourself; your elder brother is truly hones

However, he was not in a hurry to take action against Xie Biyan, since the other party was still within the territory of the Soul Hall, and if something happened on the spot, the Soul Hall's Dou Zun might discover the problem.

Furthermore, erasing Xie Biyan's soul now is merely erasing it; it does not allow us to obtain Xie Biyan's memories, his potent poison, another puppet, or the collection in his storage ring.

"I'll let you live a few more days, and then you can bring me some benefits."

Holding his breath and concentrating, Zhang Yuan focused all his attention on controlling the Eagle Guardian's body.

He was about to face a Dou Zun, and he didn't want his secrets to be discovered, turning a good thing into a bad thing.

"Whoosh!"

A black mist shrouded the area, creating an eerie atmosphere. A pool of moonlight, condensed from the moonlight, was spread out on the ground, providing some light to the world, allowing ordinary people to barely see what was happening.

However, for those in the Soul Palace who excel in soul techniques, there is little difference between day and night, and they often do not rely on their naked eyes to see where they are going.

The "Eagle Protector" moved ten or a hundred feet at a time, traversing space and arriving in front of a majestic, ancient, and cold palace filled with a chilling aura in the blink of an eye.

As far as the eye could see, everything seemed distorted, making it difficult to see clearly. It felt as if the entrance to this giant palace was the mouth of a huge abyss, ready to devour anyone at any moment.

"Eagle Protector" bowed slightly and said, "This subordinate pays respects to Venerable Three Serpents!"

Swish!

A whooshing sound came from the air.

Before the "Eagle Protector" could react, he felt something bite his shoulder.

He glanced to the side and saw a long, dark green snake with a sinister look in its eyes.

Before he could speak, the snake vanished again, and a spatial fluctuation came from ahead.

Before he could react, the "Eagle Protector" felt the world spinning and the surrounding scenery changing.

Before your eyes is a vast, boundless hall, with nothing but cold, enormous stone pillars burning with dark flames.

Several figures shrouded in black mist stood directly in front of the main hall. They seemed to be fused together in space, creating a unique visual distortion that made them difficult to see clearly.

At the very top of the main hall sat a towering figure, almost like a god, seemingly one with the space around him. He did nothing, yet exuded an aura of majesty that inspired awe and reverence.

"Hehehe, Eagle Protector, how do you explain the fall of Protector Wu and Protector Tie of Benfen Hall?"

Protector Wu and Protector Tie are from the Soul Hall branch of the Northwest Continent, and their soul tablets are also here.

The moment the two fell, the branch hall noticed it, and Elder Three Serpents even used his methods to inquire in Zhongzhou, learning that Protector Eagle was still alive.

“Elder, this cannot be explained in a few words. Please use your Soul Reading Technique.” The Eagle Protector moved his hands and flung out a somewhat damaged chain.

The reason he didn't refer to himself as a subordinate was because the Eagle Protector was not a member of this Soul Palace, and therefore his position was lower due to his strength and status.

The so-called Soul Reading Technique is a special method within the Soul Palace that allows the transmission of fragmented memories through chains and links. This is also a way for the Soul Clan to verify identities.

Because only the souls of those from the Soul Hall, combined with the Soul Hall's unique methods, can unlock Soul Reading.

What Zhang Yuan wanted to do was to succeed in one fell swoop and see if his methods could fool everyone.

"That's fine too."

The Three Serpent Elder spoke indifferently, and a spatial fluctuation occurred in front of him. A pitch-black chain appeared in front of the "Eagle Protector," its tip carrying a power that made one's soul tremble.

With a thought, the "Eagle Protector" also manipulated his own life-bound chains to clash with the chains of the Three Serpent Elders.

At the same time, the Xuanhuang Flame within the seventh-order Nine Abyss Token he implanted inside the Eagle Protector's sea of ​​consciousness began to burn, and the reorganized and modified memories were transmitted to the Three Serpent Elders.

It's still the battle at Yunlan Sect. The preceding content remains unchanged, except that the part about Yao Lao taking action has been deleted. Instead, Medusa, Youhai Jiaolong, Yunshan, Lingying, and Jia Xingtian use a special formation to enhance Zhang Yuan's power, giving him a temporary high-level Dou Zong strength.

In the part where Yao Lao and Eagle Protector fought, Zhang Yuan's face was replaced, and he finally used the "Thunder Emperor Finger" to suppress everything.

Eagle Protector was severely injured and used the Soul Splitting Technique to escape where no one could see him, but as a result, his cultivation level dropped to Seven Star Dou Zong, which was quite tragic.

The entire memory is nine parts truth and one part falsehood, reaching the highest level of deception.

The only thing Zhang Yuan needed to hide was the existence of Yao Lao; otherwise, the Three Serpent Elders would probably have taken action personally immediately.

The soul of a former eighth-grade, nine-colored alchemist is incredibly tempting to the Soul Palace.

"Hehehe, what a Nine Abyss Palace! They actually don't take my Soul Palace seriously."

The Three Serpent Elder retracted the chains, his voice reverberating throughout the space.

"Guardian Eagle, do you know which power Nine Abyss Prefecture is backed by?"

“I have already investigated,” Zhang Yuan said immediately. “It is most likely backed by the Red Sky Chamber of Commerce.”

"The Red Sky Chamber of Commerce?" The Three Serpent Elder's giant eyes surged with shock.

Over the millennium, there have been eight great imperial clans, whose overall strength can be divided into three tiers.

The first are the Xiao Clan, the Ancient Clan, and the Soul Clan; the second are the Yan Clan and the Lei Clan; and the third are the Yao Clan, the Shi Clan, and the Ling Clan.

The three major monster families are generally between the first and second tiers, with the Ancient Dragon of the Void being the strongest.

The Red Sky Chamber of Commerce is the external representative of the Yan Clan on the continent, just like the Lingye Chamber of Commerce of the Ancient Clan.

Of the seven ancient clans that still exist, apart from the Soul Palace, all have established merchant guilds as their external forces.

Eagle Protector, who comes from Zhongzhou and is a peak Dou Zong, naturally knows about this matter, but not much of it!

“That’s right, the Red Sky Chamber of Commerce!” Before Elder Three Serpents could ask, “Eagle Protector” took the initiative to say, “During my time recuperating, I also investigated the Nine Abyss Prefecture and found that it mainly sells fighting weapons and pills, but not many cultivation techniques and fighting skills.”

"In addition, I have encountered Medusa of the Snake-People Clan and the Nether Sea Dragon Beast of the Gama Empire Royal Family, and discovered that they possess the power of strange fire."

"Even if His Majesty were to send any of his guardians to investigate, they would be able to sense it."

"Jiuyuan Mansion also successfully subdued Dan King Guhe and the Alchemist Guild."

"."

The Red Sky Merchant Guild mainly deals in weaponry and elixirs, and is backed by the Yan Clan.

The Yan Clan doesn't have many other things, but they have a lot of strange fire.

These discoveries about the "Eagle Protector" are indeed very indicative.

After recounting these discoveries, Protector Eagle added another startling statement: "Your Excellency should know what mission I am here for. The reason I went to the Cloud Mist Sect is to investigate the final resting place of the Annihilation Saint within the territory of the Gama Empire."

"After investigation, it was finally confirmed that he perished together with the Xuanhuang Saint of that year and was worn away by the passage of time."

"Regarding the identity of that Xuanhuang Saint, the Annihilation Saint left behind only the word 'fire'."

"Does Your Excellency have any thoughts on this?"

fire?

The Three Serpent Elder's vertical pupils contracted.

It's probably not the "fire" of "different fire," or the "flame" of "unfinished writing"!

He has been in charge of the Northwest Continent for hundreds of years, and therefore knows a great deal.

This northwestern continent was originally the territory of the Yan clan, but was later occupied by the Xiao clan.

The battle that wiped out the Xiao clan a thousand years ago left this place extremely barren, unworthy of the attention of even the top powers on the continent, let alone the few imperial clans.

After so many years of recuperation, it seems to be recovering. Could it be that the Yan Clan is about to make a comeback?

Back then, the Xuanhuang Saint was an expert in manipulating different flames, and no one could compare to the Yan Clan in this regard, not even the Medicine Clan! (The Three Serpent Elders are not qualified to know Xiao Xuan's methods and foundation.)

Everything clicked.

This Eagle Protector is quite capable, able to investigate such basic information. No wonder he was sent from Zhongzhou to be in charge of the investigation.

But ultimately, their perspective is limited, they know relatively few secrets, and they cannot connect to deeper levels.

The Yan Clan temporarily looks down on the Northwest Continent, but they want to reclaim the homeland that was once seized by the Xiao Clan. Therefore, they arranged for a merchant guild-like force to test the waters, and Jiuyuan Prefecture was the vanguard of the Hongtian Merchant Guild.

"There's no need for conflict. Let them do their business, and we'll set up our formation. Right now, the most important thing is to keep a low profile and avoid attracting attention, especially from the imperial family."

Thinking of this, Elder Three Serpents made a plan and said, "I will immediately send this news back to Central State. Go and recuperate."

Upon hearing this, "Eagle Protector" suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He seemed to be thinking, "You, a respected elder, are trying to steal credit from your subordinates?"

Elder Sanshe frowned and said coldly, "What, do you have a problem with that?"

"I dare not," Eagle Protector said, bowing his head.

It's not that we don't dare to, but that we don't have the courage.

What a clueless person.

"You may leave now; you will be rewarded for your contributions."

Upon hearing this, the "Eagle Protector" withdrew with a hint of depression.

"You can't handle this information; you need me to."

After the Eagle Protector's figure disappeared, the Three Serpent Elder took out a jade talisman and crushed it.

"Your Majesty, I have an important matter to report."

"The Yan Clan is making unusual movements!"

Chapter 163 The Birth of a Shocking Rumor! The Soul Clan Almost Attacked the Flame Clan

Hand

Zhongzhou, the center of the Dou Qi Continent, is home to the strongest and most numerous forces on the continent, with countless geniuses emerging like carp crossing a river.

Among the many forces, the One Palace, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, Four Directions Pavilion, Five Cities, and Six Merchant Guilds are the most prominent. However, since the Five Cities are respectively affiliated with the One Tower, One Valley, Two Pavilions, and the Beast Domain, and the Six Merchant Guilds are focused on making money through harmony and do not recruit too many talents from outside, their reputation is not very prominent.

One hall is called the Soul Hall, which contains the Heavenly Gang Hall and the Earthly Fiend Hall. The Heavenly Gang Hall is divided into three main halls: Heaven, Earth, and Man. The Earthly Fiend Hall is the most important of the twenty-four branch halls of the Soul Hall in the Central Plains. The hall masters and deputy hall masters of the branch halls are all of the esteemed elder level.

The Northwest Continent Branch Hall, responsible for a province, while not as powerful as the Heavenly Gang Hall, is comparable to the top five Earthly Fiend Halls.

The Soul Palace Northwest Continent Branch Vice Hall Master, Elder Three Serpents, is a peak three-star Dou Zun, whose strength ranks among the top ten in the Northwest Continent. He is no less powerful than the current Pavilion Masters of the Four Directions Pavilion, except for the Starfall Pavilion.

At this moment, he directly contacted the number one deputy hall master of the Earthly Fiend Hall, the Soul Hall Heavenly Venerable Nine Heavens Venerable Mo Yu!

"The Flame Clan?"

Hundreds of millions of miles away, a great terror awakens, opening its eyes and shooting out a beam of light that shatters the space before it, causing spatial reversal to emerge, capable of easily annihilating even a peak Dou Zun powerhouse.

"Yes, your subordinate has investigated the reason for the fall of the Annihilation Saint back then." Elder Three Serpents lowered his head slightly and said, "The Xuanhuang Saint was a member of the Yan Clan. He controlled two kinds of strange fire. The establishment of the Xuanhuang Sect in the Northwest Continent was ordered by the Yan Clan behind the scenes, in order to reclaim the ancestral land that was once occupied by the Xiao Clan."

"As a result, it was discovered by our clan's demigods, and the two sides fought fiercely, ultimately perishing together. The soul of the Annihilation Saint was sealed by the strange fire and was obliterated over a thousand years."
