Chapter 182 Soul Guidance Civilization and Ancient Evil Dragon
Wuhun City, Pope's Hall.
In the grand hall, a long table was placed in the center. On the innermost side of the hall, a lifelike angel statue looked down with mercy and compassion.
Bibi Dong sat closest to the angel.
The worshippers and ordinary elders were on both sides of the long table.
"Xue Qinghe" sat on the worshipper's side. She came as a representative of the Tiandou Empire.
Amon sat opposite her.
Bibi Dong glanced at Qian Daoliu, who nodded.
She then said in a soft but majestic voice:
"I believe everyone has understood this incident. The fierce beast, a kind of rarely known soul beast, is showing its fangs to us. Although we repelled their attack some time ago, the threat has not been lifted.
"The king of soul beasts, Di Tian, is still eyeing us. We need to unite and take strong measures to face this crisis.
"Soul rings are essential items for every soul master's growth. And hunting soul rings is also the natural right of every soul master.
"When this right is threatened, our Wuhun Hall, as an organization that defends the interests of soul masters, should stand up."
After a pause, she looked at Amon across the "Xueqing River" and said:
"Duke Amon, now, I hope you can tell me everything you know without concealment or distortion, about the auspicious beasts, about Emperor Tian, and about the information about the Star Dou Great Forest."
Amon stood up, bowed slightly to everyone, and said with a smile:
"The vast forest, the boundless sea, the vast sky, the dark underground, there are still many places in this world that we have not set foot on, and there are also many things that we have not understood. We humans are not the only rulers of this world.
"Soul beasts, whether in the forest, on the snowfield, or in the sea, are mostly scattered, so we usually ignore their threats.
"In most cases, they do not pose a threat, because soul beasts are also divided into many species, tigers, goats, wolves, deer... They are hostile to each other and feed on each other, and it is almost impossible for them to unite.
"There is only one exception, that is, the birth of fierce beasts. Soul beasts will die after a thousand years if they do not choose to transform after 100,000 years. This statement is actually not completely accurate.
"When the thousand years come, they will face the heavenly tribulation. If they survive, they will be fierce beasts and can continue to live. When their cultivation reaches 200,000, they will face the second heavenly tribulation."
Qian Daoliu's pupils shrank, "Could it be..."
Amon nodded, "Yes, the second heavenly tribulation can also be survived. Every 100,000 years of fierce beast cultivation will usher in a heavenly tribulation. Although the challenges faced by each heavenly tribulation will become greater and greater, as long as they survive, their strength will become stronger and stronger.
"That black-eyed golden dragon king, I have seen records about it in an ancient book. It is a terrifying existence that has cultivated for more than 800,000 years and survived eight heavenly tribulations...
"In fact, I didn't know he was in the depths of the Xingdou Great Forest, otherwise I wouldn't dare to provoke him.
"I miscalculated this time. I thought that the four soul beast kings, Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, Zi Ji, and Chi Wang, were already the masters of the four areas of the Xingdou Great Forest. I didn't expect that they would submit to one existence together."
Amon's face showed a lingering fear.
Walter glanced at him and was half-believing and half-doubting.
Qian Daoliu whispered: "No wonder... No wonder... I thought the different strengths of the fierce beasts were due to their races, but it turns out there is this difference."
Qian Daoliu traveled around the world when he was young, and also encountered fierce beasts and fought with them. He knew that the strengths of fierce beasts were also very different.
He had also seen relevant records in ancient books, but he only knew that a 100,000-year-old soul beast could become a fierce beast after passing the tribulation and live to 200,000 years. He was not clear about the details.
Amon raised his right hand, pinched his monocle, restrained his usual smile, and said seriously:
"I think everyone knows about soul guides, right? That is the technology of the lost ancient civilization, but why did such a brilliant civilization suddenly perish? According to my speculation, it is probably related to fierce beasts. That black dragon king is likely to be the culprit of the destruction of ancient civilization."
Hearing Amon suddenly talking about soul guide technology, the Wuhun elders present, as well as Qian Renxue, showed a look of sudden enlightenment on their faces. Amon's words sounded very reasonable.
Bibi Dong asked with a hint of doubt: "How do you know these materials that even the Wuhun Hall has not recorded?"
Amon smiled lightly and replied: "In fact, I come from a very ancient hidden family."
"Ancient hidden family?" Bibi Dong was skeptical.
The Spirit Hall investigated Amon's information and knew that he was born in an ordinary family in a remote village in the Frost Leaf City of the Northern Province.
But Amon said it with a solemn oath, and since he arrived in the Northern City and contacted Walter, he has been very mysterious. His performance in the Soul Master Competition was amazing. Although some things were exposed, it seemed that there was more hidden. Until now, it is still shrouded in confusion, which makes people afraid and puzzled. So Bibi Dong also tends to believe what he said.
Amon suddenly changed his expression and said in a solemn tone: "Have you ever heard of the Amon family!"
"Xue Qinghe" thought for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Forgive me for my ignorance, I have never heard of it."
She smiled and asked gently: "Duke Amon, won't you introduce your family? A family that can produce such an outstanding person like you, Duke, should have once shone brightly and left a strong mark in human history."
Amon shook his head, "Since the family has chosen to hide in the mountains, then I naturally cannot disturb its peace. Although I parted ways with the people because I wanted to regain the glory of the past, I respect their choice."
"Put your family's affairs aside, what about the auspicious beast? What is the auspicious beast? Why does Di Tian care about it so much?" Qian Daoliu asked.
"Auspicious beast... Although the truth may be more complicated, you can simply understand it as a soul beast's cultivation accelerator. As long as it exists, the growth rate of soul beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest will double, and the probability of fierce beasts surviving the heavenly tribulation will also double." Amon responded with a chuckle.
"The entire Xingdou Great Forest, all soul beasts?" Qianjun couldn't help but take a breath.
"No wonder the soul beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest seem to grow faster. It turns out that it's not my illusion. In recent years, we have organized people to clean up the outer soul beasts more and more frequently." Walter said.
Wuhun City is right next to the Xingdou Great Forest. In order to keep the road open and the safety of ordinary people who come here to do business, as well as low-level soul masters, the Wuhun Hall will organize people to regularly clean up the soul beasts outside the forest.
Walter remembered that fifty years ago, when he first joined the Wuhun Hall, it was twice a year. Now, it has increased to four times a year, and the number of people dispatched each time is also increasing.
Although it seems very slow and inconspicuous, it also shows a fact that the number of soul beasts is increasing and the overall strength of soul beasts is growing.
"No wonder the soul beast king wanted to hunt you down like crazy." Qian Daoliu looked strange: "You dared to hunt this auspicious beast as a soul ring. I'm afraid you have already prepared to be hunted down by the fierce beast, right?"
Amon showed a slightly helpless smile: "Yes, but I didn't expect that the one who came to hunt was actually the black dragon... If it was other fierce beasts, then our plan would be perfect. Their hunting would only allow His Majesty the Pope to gain more soul rings.
"And using the auspicious beast as a soul ring is also very beneficial to me. This is originally a win-win situation."
So that's the case. It seems that I misunderstood him before... Bibi Dong thought secretly in her heart.
"But the current situation seems not bad. I accidentally found the trace of the ancient evil dragon." Amon said in a somewhat brisk tone.
"Why do you say that?" Yue Guan asked.
Amon stroked his monocle: "The soul beast king, the evil dragon that destroyed the ancient kingdom, the auspicious beast that accelerated the growth of soul beast cultivation, these are connected together, can't you think of anything? You know, fierce beasts can command ordinary soul beasts. The Black Dragon King Di Tian can probably command the soul beasts of the entire Xingdou Great Forest! "
Thinking of a possibility, "Xue Qinghe" and Qian Daoliu both showed solemn expressions on their faces.
The former couldn't help but say: "Di Tian is quietly accumulating strength, wanting to repeat the destruction of the ancient kingdom, counterattack humans, and let soul beasts become the masters of this world again?"
The elders of the Wuhun Hall were either solemn or horrified. No one could tell how many soul beasts there were in the entire Xingdou Great Forest, but it was definitely far more than the number of human soul masters!
If it is allowed to develop, humans may really face a crisis of life and death in the future!
"Indeed, if this is the case, it is not a bad thing to discover his conspiracy in advance. The number of soul beasts must be reduced. "Qian Daoliu said firmly.
Qian Daoliu himself also knew some of the situation of the fierce beasts, and knew that they had destroyed some kingdoms, but even if he heard about the fact that the entire human civilization regressed, he would be shocked.
Because he knew only a little about the fierce beasts, he was the one who believed Amon's words the most among all people. Because what Amon said was completely consistent with the few words he knew!
"Hmph... I have said it before, those who say that we should protect soul beast resources and not kill them indiscriminately are all nonsense. There are so many soul beasts, it is a good thing to kill more. "The demon said coldly.
Golden Crocodile nodded: "It is too early to consider that soul masters may not have soul rings in the future, at least it is not something we should consider at this stage.
"The overall strength of mankind has not yet formed a crushing trend against soul beasts. It is too arrogant to say that we should protect soul beast resources."
Qian Renxue secretly guessed in her heart: Could it be that the Amon family is actually an ancient family passed down from the previous era, and the era when they were active was the era when the soul guide civilization was developed?
Until the Black Dragon King Di Tian launched a soul beast counterattack against humans, which led to a technological gap and a decline in civilization. The once-prominent Amon family also fell in that disaster.
Amon called the Black Dragon Di Tian the Ancient Evil Dragon because he hated him. He wanted revenge, to kill Di Tian, the culprit who caused the destruction of ancient civilization, and restore the glory of the Amon family?
