Chapter 363: Movements from Many Sides

"Mm."

"Jia Nan Academy!"

"The Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion is at Jia Nan Academy!"

"..."

Everyone looked calm, occasionally whispering to discuss with the people beside them.

Haha, having been hit by a massive influx of information today, the crowd could already face the location of the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion with indifference...

As if!

"The academy you speak of wouldn't happen to be that number one academy on the continent in the Black-Corner Region, would it?"

A hint of trembling could be detected in Lei Ying's voice; he was all too familiar with that Jia Nan Academy, after all, the Jia Nan Academy Dean Mang Qianchi was an Elder of their Lei Clan.

To be told now that the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion, which the entire continent had sought in vain for ten thousand years, was right under their noses?

How could anyone remain calm at such explosive news?

Xiao Han nodded with a smile and confirmed, "This point is absolutely true!"

"After all..."

"I have seen it with my own eyes."

"The Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion..."

Xiao Han's gaze became slightly unfocused, his thoughts seemingly piercing through space, drifting toward that towering stone mansion exuding an ancient aura beneath Jia Nan Academy in the Black-Corner Region.

When Xiao Han withdrew his thoughts, he suddenly felt a sense of discomfort; he scanned his surroundings, and the scorching gazes were enough to make it impossible to open one's eyes.

"Seniors, please calm down." Xiao Han was not surprised; given the conditions and capabilities, it would be strange if no one were tempted by the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion.

"The specific situation is as follows..."

Afterwards, Xiao Han explained the situation of the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion to the group of thirsty-for-knowledge old seniors in full detail.

While Xiao Han and the others were talking in the hall, the Soul Clan side did not stop their own actions either.

"Integrate all the manpower of those fellows and fill them all into my Soul Clan." Just after returning to the Soul World, Hun Tiandi issued such an order.

"Yes!" The Elder behind him responded without hesitation and then quietly disappeared.

The so-called filling was naturally a cover; the true meaning was merely to use the remaining Blood Evil Clan powerhouses as cannon fodder.

The moment that Nine-Star Dou Sheng Xue Qing fell, the future of the Blood Evil Clan was already sealed; if they were lucky, they might hold out until Hun Tiandi became a Dou Di and then be settled with later, and if they were unlucky, they would be wiped out directly during the great battle between the Soul Clan and the allied forces.

After settling the Soul Clan troops,

"What should we do next?"

Xuwu Swallowing Flame's current situation was very poor; his aura was listless, even the black flames in his pupils were dim and lusterless, and he spoke weakly.

Hearing this, Hun Tiandi's calm, unruffled face suddenly turned gloomy; this great battle had completely exceeded his expectations.

Originally, in Hun Tiandi's view, both sides possessed three Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and everyone could trade a few blows. Although the allied forces had many more Dou Sheng powerhouses than the Soul Clan army, and even had Eight-Star Peak Dou Sheng like Yan Jin and Lei Ying, the Soul Clan powerhouses also had extraordinary combat power. If one counted the Dead Silence Gate, they would surely be able to teach the allied forces a painful lesson.

As a result...

Hun Tiandi felt that he had miscalculated. He never expected that Xue Qing would be such a waste, or rather, that the Ice Saint was too strong. Not only did she defeat and capture Xue Qing in a short time, but she even had the energy to influence the entire battlefield. This time difference meant the Soul Clan didn't even get to execute their original plan before it came to nothing.

The collapse of the battle situation began after Xiao Han defeated Xue Qing.

Still nursing his anger, Hun Tiandi coldly glanced at Xuwu Swallowing Flame, "You first heal your injuries, then attempt to break through to the Emperor Realm Soul."

"As long as we find the location of the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion, the final victory will still be ours!"

Xuwu Swallowing Flame nodded in agreement. As things stood, the Soul Clan had ended up as enemies of the whole world, besieged by the strongest group of forces on the entire Dou Qi Continent. Facing the allied forces, the Soul Clan's current strength was completely at a disadvantage.

The only hope for a final turnaround was for Hun Tiandi to advance to Dou Di; otherwise, everyone, including himself, would die without a burial place.

However, although the logic held, Xuwu Swallowing Flame had an ominous premonition in his heart. He shook his head slightly, casting this feeling out of his mind; now, he could only walk down this dark path to the end.

Jia Nan Academy, the underground magma world.

"Lord Puppet Saint, if you would yield a few of these Saint Puppets to my Tianman Sect, any price is negotiable."

A man dressed in a hemp robe said with a chuckle; he was none other than the Tianman Sect Master, Huang Jingtian.

And at his side, he was firmly tugging on the sleeve of another fair-skinned man, who struggled symbolically a few times before staring with half-moon eyes, looking as if he had given up.

"Sect Master Huang is powerful and has no need for these few puppets of mine to guard his person," Jiang Yu refused.

At this moment, helplessness and regret were intertwined in his heart, regret that Xiao Han had called him here to run into Huang Jingtian.

The helplessness was toward Huang Jingtian's sticky-candy-like approach; the other party wouldn't use force, just pestered him like this. One doesn't hit a smiling face, and furthermore, this person who looked thin and weak on the surface was actually a genuine Nine-Star Dou Sheng level Body Cultivator!

After weighing the strength gap between the enemy and himself, to prevent his few high-level Battle Puppets from being dismantled into parts by Huang Jingtian one kick at a time and returning to nature, Jiang Yu decisively abandoned the idea of resorting to force.

If he could, he would be very willing to spend money to avoid disaster, but the current market was not like the past; the materials for Saint Puppets were extremely precious. After trading them away, it would be extremely difficult to remake them; they were non-renewable resources, so he ultimately abandoned this idea.

"Lord Dragon Emperor, are you just going to watch?" Jiang Yu cast a pleading gaze toward Zhu Kun, who was happily watching the show on the side. This was a great senior, so why did he give people the feeling of an old man at the entrance of a village?

"This is a matter for you juniors; this Emperor is too lazy to get involved." Sure enough, Zhu Kun smilingly rejected Jiang Yu's plea for help.

For an old guy like him, after being trapped for ten thousand years, it was not easy to find a few people qualified to communicate with him. The ten-thousand-year imprisonment had kept his enthusiasm for watching the fun at an extreme high.

"Did Tianyun Elder go to Jia Nan Academy to look after those juniors again?" With his plea for help fruitless, Jiang Yu decisively chose to change the subject.

The Tianyun Elder in Jiang Yu's mouth was naturally the Tianyun Elder that Xiao Han had encountered in the Demon Fire Space; this old senior had also been invited over by Xiao Han.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Xiao Han could be said to have spent everything; every famous top powerhouse he could find was recruited.

However, unlike the others, compared to the glaring temptation of the "Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion" before them, Tianyun Elder seemed more interested in the students of Jia Nan Academy, going to wander around every now and then.

"Calculating the time, they should have already started fighting over in the Central Plains!" Ignoring Jiang Yu's clumsy diversion tactic, Zhu Kun asked expectantly.

"Mm," Jiang Yu replied, "At most a month, those fellows from the Soul Clan should be able to find this place."

"That's good." Zhu Kun clenched the fist behind his back, "This Emperor was still worried that those fellows would be wiped out directly."

If the Soul Clan were killed directly, how would he be able to escape?

"Pity that fellow called Hun Tiandi." Huang Jingtian "wiped" away "tears" and said "melancholically," his tone full of sincerity.

An invisible giant net quietly spread open; Hun Tiandi and the members of the Soul Clan caught within the net were nothing more than struggling prey, and the moment the other party opened the Ancient Emperor Cave Mansion would be the day their lives ended.
