Chapter 2080 Searching for Souls and Peeling Off Cocoons (2)
At the end of the war, the demons had been beaten back to the Forsaken Continent. The "Sun Covering Clan" naturally wanted to grow and develop again, and at first they still thought of continuing to join forces with the "Soul Prison Clan" so that they could dominate the entire Qingqing Continent in the future.
But soon after, they discovered that the "Soul Prison Tribe" at that time was no longer the powerful ethnic group it used to be, and the entire interior was actually torn apart.
The third ancestor has also left with his people, and the second ancestor is eager to find his brother and often goes out for long periods of time. The entire tribe is already in a state of neglect.
As for the Great First Ancestor, the disappearance of the First Ancestor and the failure of the Second Ancestor to make reasonable arrangements in time have led to unstable emotions in that lineage, and there have even been some criticisms.
After several contacts with the "Sun-shielding Clan" in the past, the second ancestor no longer thought about the two clans growing in power and ruling the Qingqing Continent. Instead, he asked the "Shining-Sun Clan" to help him find the whereabouts of the great ancestor.
And he also made some conditions. Compared with other things, the second ancestor has a lackluster attitude.
In this way, the "Shining Sun Clan" knew that the courage of the second ancestor was not as broad as that of his elder brother, and his scheming was not as wise as that of the third ancestor.
Before that, the "Sun-shielding Clan" had actually made some noises, and some people had already had the unstoppable idea of annexing the "Soul Prison Clan".
One, of course, is for the Soul Prison Clan's skills; second, they also have a secret, and this secret is a shortcut to strengthening the "Shielding Sun Clan".
The "Shielding Sun Clan" were originally transformed by tree spirits. The greatest inheritance in their clan is an original ancestral tree in the clan. That ancestral tree is where the fate of the entire clan lies.
Moreover, the birth of every clan member will be related to the blessing shade shrouded by this ancestral tree, which is also a kind of heavenly movement.
Later, this ancestral tree could no longer improve its spirituality due to the rules of heaven and earth.
This makes it very difficult for the descendants of the "Shining Sun Clan" to produce a strong person.
But the ancestral tree once said that if he wanted to improve his spirituality or find a more beautiful place, he could use that place to improve again.
Otherwise, there is another way, which is to let him swallow a large number of souls, and he can also improve his spiritual level.
But considering that his body is a kind of soul tree, the normal souls will not be able to play any role after being swallowed.
Even the golden elixir and the soul of the Yuanying monk are not very effective on him. Only monks with powerful souls are more suitable.
Moreover, the quantity he needs is also very huge, which cannot be solved by two or three people, and both of these two conditions are extremely demanding.
The "Sun-shielding Clan" simply couldn't do it. At first, they even wanted to have the most powerful monk in the clan take the ancestral tree directly to the fairy world, and then find a suitable place there.
However, the ancestral tree itself is a different species from heaven and earth, and even the supreme elders in the realm of gods would not dare to carry it to ascend, as this would definitely cause instability in the ascension node.
When the time comes, your own death will be a trivial matter, and the entire "Shielding Sun Clan" will be completely finished. Similarly, if the ancestral tree ascends by itself, there is also the danger of annihilation without absolute certainty.
And once the ancestral tree leaves here, their "Sun Covering Clan" inheritance will also be interrupted, and they will decline rapidly in the future.
After that, the matter was shelved, but the "sun-shielders" never gave up these ideas and were always trying to solve the matter.
However, many methods were not feasible, and in the end I had to focus on finding a reliable way to bring the ancestral tree to the fairy world.
But after the "Soul Prison Clan" appeared, some people in the "Shielding Sun Clan" immediately had new ideas. This was a powerful soul cultivating sect, and the souls of the monks in it were undoubtedly powerful beings.
At that time, they had plans to annex the "Soul Prison Clan", but since the three ancestors were too powerful, they did not dare to take action, so they deliberately made friends with each other.
In addition, once the two tribes join forces to rule the Qingqing Continent, there will be a better place on this continent than the "Sun-shielding Clan".
It's just that they are equally powerful. Under normal circumstances, they would not be able to defeat the other party at all. In other words, even if they defeat the other party, their own clan will basically be finished.
But as long as they can control the wind and rain on the Qingqing Continent, they can get whatever they want, and then the ancestral trees can also improve their spirituality.
However, everything turned around after a battle between demons. Since the second ancestor's thoughts were not on the powerful clan at all, turmoil arose within the "Soul Prison Clan" again.
So next, they naturally want to design the "Soul Prison Clan", and the most important thing is how to capture the two ancestors of the opponent.
The opponent still has two ancestors. Once it is discovered that something is wrong, even if there is only one god-transformation monk showing his power, it will be earth-shattering.
They can bring the high-level monks of the "Sun-shielding Clan" to death together, and the situation will even be even worse. Even if they succeed, it will be a tragic victory.
The Supreme Elder of the "Sun-shielding Clan" thought about several plans, and after discussing with other elders, decided on a method that would give the Second Ancestor more than half the chance of being able to take the bait.
That is to use the great ancestor as bait to directly hit the second ancestor's intention, but this requires a good opportunity!
So they kept looking for opportunities in secret, but the waiting came very quickly, and they easily found a God-given opportunity.
That was the third ancestor of the "Soul Prison Clan", who was actually driven away from the clan by the second ancestor, taking his branch of people away with him. The strength of the "Soul Prison Clan" was once again greatly weakened.
This kind of thing is an extremely difficult secret for outsiders to know. They don't even know where the sect of the "Soul Prison Clan" is?
But for the "Sun-shielding Clan", it seems to be relatively relaxed. They both know where the other is, and the "Sun-Shielding Clan" have fought side by side with each other.
There are many people in the two tribes who can be called life and death brothers, but the "soul prison tribe" does not know the other's ambitions.
Especially what the Third Patriarch said to the Second Patriarch in front of the re-blocked formation when he led his people away.
Soon the "Shielding Sun Clan" found out, and it was also made clear that there was internal strife within the "Soul Prison Clan".
After receiving such important information, the "Sun Covering Clan" immediately began to inquire further, including the fact that the masters of their clan deliberately found reasons to come to the door, claiming to discuss some matters.
As expected, they were in the "Soul Prison Clan" and only saw the second ancestor come out to contact them. During the conversation, the master of the "Shielding Sun Clan" even deliberately asked the third ancestor if he was in retreat.
But looking at the second ancestor's face and the vague way he spoke, he was able to confirm the information his side had obtained within a few times.
Afterwards, they formulated a complete plan and secretly spread some rumors, saying that the "Shining Sun Tribe" was also looking for several tribesmen who disappeared when they left the mainland in battle.
Since they carry something important to the clan, without leaving the soul lamp behind, it is not certain whether they have really died, etc...
On the one hand, the "Sun-shielding Clan" sent people to search for their whereabouts, but on the other hand, they thought that the other party might be dead, so whether their souls could be found.
So in the end, after using the secret technique of "Shielding the Sun Clan", he actually communicated with the remnant soul of a tribesman in the Netherworld.
Although the remaining soul of the other party could no longer be retrieved, they still had a weak communication and finally learned how he died.
Also from the mouth of the remnant soul, some important information needed by the clan was obtained, and some secrets were recovered again.
And such news was quickly spread to the "Soul Prison Tribe" under someone's deliberate actions. Originally, if the Third Ancestor was still around, he wouldn't be so easily fooled.
But at that time, the second ancestor could fall out with his sworn brothers because of the great ancestor, and even risked his own life to sneak into the demon clan in the abandoned continent to get the information he wanted.
What's more, after receiving such news, and he is a powerful soul cultivator, he knows that if a soul cultivator's soul wants to die, it will not collapse so easily.
Moreover, the soul cultivator does have the magical power to search for dead souls, but he does not have this secret skill.
However, although the second ancestor was more obsessed at that time, he was not really that easy to be fooled. At the beginning, he only tried to find a strong man from the "Sun Covering Clan" and asked if he could help him find his elder brother?
But in fact, at that time, he still had a strong sense of precaution in his heart, but the "sun-shielding tribe" had already carefully designed a trap.
The two clans have been in contact with each other for a long time. Although they cannot say that they have a complete understanding of the character of the second ancestor, they have a vague understanding of it.
Therefore, the second ancestor fell into the trap of the other party step by step, and his vigilance was slowly broken by the other party...
Later, one party wanted to find out the information, and the other party deliberately tried to seduce the information. In the end, the "sun-shielding tribe" seemed to be reluctant and put forward quite harsh conditions.
This was to deliberately make the Second Ancestor put down his last vigilance, thinking that they did not want to use this magical power easily, or that this magical power had huge backlash, and wanted him to give up this idea.
But the relationship between their two clans has always been pretty good, so he just needs to find conditions that he cannot accept at all, so that he can retreat in spite of the difficulties.
