Chapter 125: Mutual Restraint

~8 min read 1,507 words

The reason Hun Tiandi did not choose to send people to the Jiang Family to snatch those Bodhi Seeds was not because he dreaded the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, but because he was considering those ancient Dou Di clans that possessed deep foundations.

In Hun Tiandi's heart, even if that Taixu Ancient Dragon were strong, without a Dou Di bloodline, it was just so-so.

However, those major ancient Dou Di clans were completely different; they had the bloodline of Dou Di flowing in their bodies, and no one could predict whether another figure as brilliant and talented as Xiao Xuan would emerge in these clans.

And for Hun Tiandi, there was also a treasure he was thinking about day and night hidden in those Dou Di clans—the Tuoshe Ancient God Jade.

Xuwu Tun Yan had set up a barrier in the Ling Realm when he wiped out the Ling Clan.

Back then, when Xuwu Tun Yan wiped out the Ling Clan, he had set up layers of barriers in the Ling Realm, making the outside world completely unaware of the Ling Clan's annihilation.

At least in Hun Tiandi's view, except for their Soul Clan, other Dou Di clans were still being kept in the dark.

However, although the Soul Clan was now far more powerful than the other clans, it still could not contend with the remaining five-clan alliance on its own.

Therefore, Hun Tiandi's plan was to try his best not to let the other ancient clans unite, preferably making other ancient clans have suspicions and estrangements among themselves, and then let their Soul Clan break them one by one.

At this moment, the Soul Clan was planning to take action against the Shi Clan.

As for the Yan and Lei clans, after receiving the news, they also gave up the idea of snatching directly because Jiang Cheng was a Six-Star Dou Saint.

Gu Song heard this, and although there was unwillingness in his heart, he still nodded.

Ancient Clan.

People of the Lei and Yan clans were very clear that as long as they dispatched a Seven-Star Dou Saint, by then the Soul and Ancient clans would definitely not watch like this and would definitely step in.

If they showed their heads at this time, the fact that the Ling Clan was wiped out would be known by those ancient Dou Di clans, and those ancient Dou Di clans would definitely have deeper suspicion and vigilance toward the Soul Clan; this was what he absolutely did not want to see.

Gu Yuan ultimately did not dare to not abide by the covenant on the surface.

At this critical moment, Hun Tiandi absolutely did not allow any mistakes.

The Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan stepped in; who could snatch it from them?

Since they couldn't get the Bodhi Seeds whether they went to snatch them or not, why bother with that effort?

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a crisp and rhythmic sound; this was his habit, and whenever he encountered major decisions, he would always do so.

After Gu Song finished reporting to Gu Yuan, he subsequently asked hesitantly whether they should send people to the Jiang Family to snatch those Bodhi Seeds.

Gu Yuan listened quietly to Gu Song's report, his brows furrowed, as if in deep thought.

However, not snatching was one thing, but they didn't want to let the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan easily obtain these Bodhi Seeds.

A moment later, Gu Yuan spoke slowly: "The Bodhi Seeds were obtained by the Jiang Family, and now those ancient Dou Di clans are definitely all staring at the Jiang Family; if we take action at this moment, it would be no different from putting the Ancient Clan in the limelight, which is not a wise move."

Gu Yuan continued: "Order it down, let people secretly pay attention to the Jiang Family's movements, and also pay more attention to the Soul Clan's actions. If the Soul Clan or other clans dare to violate the covenant and dispatch Dou Saint powerhouses above the four-star level, then we will also take action."

This was not because they didn't have the strength, but because if they sent a Four-Star Dou Saint, they couldn't beat them, and if they sent a Seven-Star Dou Saint, they would violate the covenant.

Consequently, the two clan leaders both issued orders, letting the clansmen in the clan closely watch the movements of the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan.

The Lei and Yan clans were both like this, so it went without saying for the Yao and Shi clans, which were even weaker than them.

The Yao Clan now only had Yao Dan whose strength had reached the Seven-Star Dou Saint level, and the Shi Clan was even more unbearable, because the Shi Clan's Dou Di bloodline was almost exhausted, and now the Shi Clan's Clan Leader's realm had only reached the Six-Star Dou Saint level.

The Yao Clan, although possessing deep foundations, now only had Yao Dan whose strength had reached the Seven-Star Dou Saint level. And the situation of the Shi Clan was even more worrying; their Dou Di bloodline was almost exhausted, and the Clan Leader's strength was only at the Six-Star Dou Saint level.

Such strength, although already unreachable in the eyes of ordinary forces in Zhongzhou, was simply not enough in front of other ancient Dou Di clans.

Therefore, the Yao Clan and the Shi Clan could almost be said to have chosen to "lie flat."

They had no strength to contend with powerful forces like the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan. Consequently, they even omitted the action of sending people to watch, as if this battle for the Bodhi Seeds had nothing to do with them.

In this way, these ancient Dou Di clans were like chess pieces on a chessboard, each standing on one side, restraining each other, like a silent contest.

However, in this contest, there was a strange phenomenon—not a single clan dared to act rashly to go to the Jiang Family to snatch those Bodhi Seeds.

Regarding all this, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was naturally completely unaware and would not have thought of it.

After Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing gave the Bodhi Heart to Cai Lin, not long after, she went into seclusion to start refining the Bodhi Heart.

Jiang Heng had also headed to the Northwest Continent, preparing to enter that Life and Death Gate.

More than a year later, Cai Lin was like a phoenix nirvana, finally walking out of seclusion; the aura all over her body had undergone earth-shaking changes, and she had successfully broken through to Dou Saint.

In this year or so, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing also had no small improvement; his realm also broke through from One-Star Dou Saint Late Stage to Two-Star Dou Saint Early Stage.

It is worth mentioning that after Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing gave the Bodhi Seeds to Ziyan.

Ziyan selected ten advanced Half-Saint powerhouses and let them refine the Bodhi Seeds, attempting to break through to Dou Saint.

In the end, ten Taixu Ancient Dragon powerhouses came out of seclusion, and actually four of them broke through to the Dou Saint realm.

After those four Dou Saints came out of seclusion, they came one after another to express their gratitude to Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing.

As for the Jiang Family, after Lin Shan refined the Bodhi Seed, he also successfully broke through to Dou Saint without accident, and Wei Jian broke through to Half-Saint.

And, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing also successfully refined the bodies of those two Dragon Kings into puppets; the bodies of the two Dragon Kings, who were Three-Star Dou Saints before they died, after being refined into puppets by Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, could also rival ordinary Two-Star Dou Saint Mid-Stage powerhouses in strength.

As for why there were only two puppets, it was because Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing hadn't refined them for a long time, and his technique was a bit rusty.

When refining the first puppet, he was careless and refined it into waste.

Looking at the Dragon King body that could have become a powerful assistant turning into nothingness, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing felt heartbroken at the time.

However, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was not the kind of person who was easily discouraged; he learned a lesson from his failure, adjusted his technique, and finally successfully refined a puppet on his second attempt.

After refining those two puppets, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing also sent them to that Xuwu Lightning Pool, letting them absorb the thunder power inside.

That Xuwu Lightning Pool, with rolling thunder and flashing electric light, was like a natural purgatory; the two Dragon King puppets were baptized by the thunder inside, gradually becoming even more powerful.

Leaving that Xuwu Lightning Pool, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's soul power swept, and he inadvertently captured a trace of abnormality.
