When Huang Huan talked about the ancestor of the Dark Sword Tribe, he seemed to be extremely respectful and pious. Then, the strength of this ancestor was extremely obvious.

"Father, where are the eighteen uncles of the Dark Guard? Why aren't they here? "

"They are currently in the Jiuyou Profound Sect, absorbing the one hundred thousand grade Nether Flame Fruits that the Yanyou Clan has brought over. This Nether Flame Fruit is the foundation of the Yanyou Clan, it is said that the ancestor of the Yanyou Clan consumed a million year old Nether Flame Fruit's essence to advance to the Emperor Stage. Anyone who arrives at the Jiuyou Profound Sect can consume the Nether Flame Fruit this time around, however, if the Nether Flame Fruit does not reach the sixty thousand year mark, it will deplete one's potential. Once more than sixty thousand years have passed, the Yanyou Clan ancestor will be able to use a secret technique to make the Nether Flame Fruit advance into a top-grade Spiritual Treasure that does not need to consume one's potential. "

"Doesn't that mean that just by relying on the Nether Flame Fruit, the Yanyou Clan would be able to cultivate a large number of experts? They should have more than sixty thousand Nether Flame Fruits, right?" Lee Xun asked. From Huang Huan's words, Lee Xun felt that the Nether Flame Fruit's growing seemed to be very simple.

Hehe, looks like I didn't explain it clearly. In fact, it's not as simple as you think it is. Spiritual Treasure like the Nether Flame Fruit is actually very special, although planting it is not difficult, but they usually only have a lifespan of ten thousand years, and the number of Spiritual Treasure that can survive a Spirit Calamity is less than one thousand. Once the Spirit Calamity was over, the Nether Flame Fruit would have to devour a similar level of Nether Flame Fruit every ten thousand years in order to survive for another ten thousand years. Therefore, there were very few higher ranked Nether Flame Fruits. Moreover, once the Nether Flame Fruit was plucked, there was no way to preserve it. One had to consume it within a year or else it would slowly lose its effects after a year. Therefore, this condition was extremely harsh. The conditions for consuming the Nether Flame Fruits that were over sixty thousand years old were also very harsh. It was impossible to consume them without reaching the level of King Rank. Furthermore, every time the ancestor of the clan used a secret technique to raise the level of the Nether Flame Fruit, it consumed a lot of his energy. Thus, the clan did not have many. "This time around, we have only decided to help the Yan Clan because of the Flame Serpent Fruit. Else, what does the life and death of the Yan Clan have to do with us?

What Huang Huan had said was the truth. The Dark Sword Clan had an Emperor Level powerhouse overseeing their affairs, they did not even need to look at the actions of the Nether Flame Clan. If not for the huge benefits, they would not have needed to provoke the even more powerful Pan Luo Clan. And judging from Huang Huan's description of obtaining the high-year Nether Flame Fruit, obtaining a high-year Nether Flame Fruit was indeed too difficult. However, Lee Xun suddenly thought of the eighteen Dark Elite Guards' strength, which were all at the level of their King Rank.

"Father-in-law, the eighteen Dark Elite Guards all possess King Rank strength, are they also part of the Dark Sword Clan?"

"Of course not. King Rank and king level physique are two different things. Even among the descendants of the Guardian Family, only a few of them possessed the Dark Sword King's physique, and those like me who relied on our strength to cultivate to become Dark Sword King were few and far in between in the history of the Dark Sword Tribe. At that time, I also trained blindly, and this was all due to luck, no one could figure out what was going on, and if they could figure it out, then the beast king level physiques of the various races aren't worth much. "Speaking of which, you also have a Sword Spirit King's physique, which is quite surprising to me. As far as I know, even the beast kings who have a king's physique from their respective races would only have a small chance of helping humans to cultivate to that of a king level physique."

"Hur hur, my luck has always been very good." When Huang Huan said this, he had already used his spirit contact to tell Lee Xun, because there was the secret contract between the two of them, after the two of them signed it, there was no possibility of helping him cultivate to the Sword Spirit King's body, but rather 100%.

"That's true. If it wasn't for the love of the heavens, cultivating to the king level would have been a fantasy." Huang Huan did not think that Lee Xun was lying either. The number of Kings in history who were willing to sign a contract with a human could be said to be pitifully few, and among them, those who had achieved King Level Constitution were even rarer. In his opinion, Lee Xun was indeed very lucky to have mastered the Sword Spirit King Body.

The four of them started to chat happily, the happiest one was naturally Xueyan, she did not expect herself and Lee Xun to settle things so easily. In the following conversations, Lee Xun found out that, in addition to the Dark Sword Tribe, the Dragon Clan and Kirin Clan had also received an invitation from the Nether Flame Clan and had sent quite a few men. For the upcoming decisive battle, the Nether Flame Clan had put in a lot of effort. It could be imagined that once the battle began, the people who used Heaven Rank could only be used as cannon fodder.

Two hours later, another familiar person for Lee Xun to see arrived. It was none other than Tuoba Gui.

"Big Bro Tuoba, why did you come?" Seeing Tuoba Gui, Lee Xun was naturally very happy. After all, they could gather some information on Qin Qing, Shang Rongrong and Zixing from him.

"Naturally, I'm here to pass on a message to you. King Huang Huan is also here. Tuoba Gui greets you, King Huang Huan. " With regards to Huang Huan appearing here, Tuoba Gui was obviously very surprised.

"There's no need to stand on ceremony. Xun is now my son-in-law.

"Hehe, since we are all family, then let's just say this. Lee Xun, it would be best if you don't go to the Jiuyou Profound Sect this time. "

"Big Bro Tuoba, please speak clearly." Lee Xun had originally thought that he could go to the Jiuyou Profound Sect to see Qin Qing and the other two.

"Actually, your appearance had long since entered the line of sight of Jiuyou Profound Sect. Tianyin Sect also belonged to the Yanyou Clan, which was equivalent to the located in the information department. Do you know anyone in the Tianyin Sect? Your information was obviously modified by someone and it is concealed in a lot of places. "

"Mn, Cang Mo from the Tianyin Sect is one of my masters, his position in the Tianyin Sect shouldn't be low." Lee Xun trusted Tuoba Gui a lot, so there was nothing to hide.

"So it's him. That's the correct answer. I was just saying who has the power and guts to modify your information." If I hadn't interacted with you before, even I would have been tricked. However, your fight with Hua Rong made all of Cang Mo's efforts come to naught. Come to think of it, your progress is really fast, killing Hua Rong with one move, your growth is way faster than I expected. " Although Tuoba Gui was surprised that Lee Xun had grown so fast, he was still more excited.

Hehe, I actually only had a major breakthrough a few days before that. If I had had it a few days earlier, dealing with Hua Rong wouldn't have been so easy. Oh right, if I kill Hua Rong and reveal my true strength, will it affect Master Cang Mo? " Lee Xun was now a little worried about Cang Mo's situation.

Cang Mo had made up your information very carefully. Even if someone found out about your information in the future, they would not hold you accountable. And this time, you killed Hua Rong, so even the Jiuyou Profound Sect judged that you must have made a major breakthrough in the near future. There is someone in Yanyou Clan here as well and they have already listed you as one of the focal points for cultivation. However, in my opinion, this is not necessarily a good thing. Your innate talent is really too envious, if your Yanyou Clan feels that it is unable to control you, it might very likely cause you harm in the dark. If you are under the control of the Yanyou Clan, then it would be even more miserable. I believe that you definitely aren't willing to be under the control of others. "

"Big Brother Tuoba, you've come to send me a message. You must have some sort of countermeasure, right?" Lee Xun could tell the seriousness of the problem Tuoba Gui was talking about, but judging from his tone, he should have come with a way to deal with it.

"Hehe, I was originally worried about this matter. Coincidentally, a person from the Yanyou Clan came up with a rotten idea, which made me feel like it's a very good opportunity. That person suggested that you bring people to explore the ruins the Jiu Gu family had left on the Sword Soul Continent. If you died, it would be nothing to them. No one objected to his proposal, so I volunteered to come and talk to you. "

"The Jiugu Family still has remnants of the clan's Sword Soul Continent?" Huang Huan was shocked.

Seeing Huang Huan so excited, Lee Xun guessed that the Jiu Gu family was not simple, and asked: "Father-in-law, is the Jiu Gu family very strong?"

"Hoho, it's not just that they're very strong, it's that they're extremely strong. There was once a legendary Emperor level powerhouse that was born in their clan, however, that Emperor level powerhouse only advanced for only thirty thousand years before he fell, and the Jiugu clan was exterminated miserably after that Emperor level powerhouse died. Don't you think it's very attractive for a clan like this to build ruins in the lower realms? Therefore, the ruins of the Jiu Gu Clan have already been completely explored by people long ago.

"Duke Huang Huan is right, it was also only during these two days that Yanyou Clan confirmed that the Jiu Gu Family had an undiscovered remnant on their Sword Soul Continent. However, this ruin has a restriction on the age of those who enter. Those who are older than the age limit, even if they are Emperor level powerhouses, they can only die if they want to forcefully enter this Sword Soul Continent which has a limit on their strength. "

"Hehe, that is something that I had expected. All clans with Emperor level powerhouses overseeing their ruins all have such a rule. I don't think I would mind living longer."

"Would it be dangerous for Lee Xun to go?" Xueyan was worried.

"There is definitely danger, there is no extinction domain that is not dangerous. However, the main purpose of the ruins was to select talented people. However, I believe that out of all the ruins constructed by the Jiu Gu family, should have the confidence to pass the selection process no matter how difficult it is. After all, his talent is considered outstanding in terms of Divine Soul Continent. In comparison, if Lee Xun were to enter the Yanyou Clan, the danger would be even greater. "

"That's true. Xun, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that if you were to participate in this battle between Yanyou Clan and the Pan Luo Family, the chances of death are rather high. If Yanyou Clan were to intentionally kill you, I might not be able to guarantee your safety. But as long as you remain in the Sword Soul Continent, Yanyou Clan will not dare to touch you. When I see the Patriarch of Yanyou Clan again, I will tell them that you are my son-in-law. "

Furthermore, there were two other lower planes, and even more so, they had the power of the Yanyou Clan itself. It was already hard to predict just how strong the forces of this side would be, and at that time, with the Pan Luo Family as well, once the two sides started fighting, it would be extremely difficult for Xiyin and Xiyin to take care of Lee Xun, and Lee Xun's strength would no longer be enough to handle such a huge situation. But having said that, how old was Lee Xun, and how long had he been cultivating for? At his age, he shouldn't have participated in such a large-scale group battle.

"Father-in-law, I must go to Divine Soul Continent. Not only that, I must make Yanyou Clan happily hand over a person." Lee Xun said firmly.

"Royal father, the newly appointed Holy Maiden is actually Lee Xun's wife. It's just that some unforeseen events have separated the two of them." Xueyan explained.

"Oh, so that little girl was Xun, your boy's sweetheart. I didn't think of that, but she is worthy of you. "Yes, as a man, we should snatch her back. We should just not treat our family in a slow manner."

"Father-in-law, please rest assured. If Yan'er is currently in Jiuyou Profound Sect, I too will make the same choice."

"Hehe, don't mind it, I believe in you. Furthermore, I believe in our Yan Er's judgement, she would definitely not misjudge you."

Hearing Lee Xun and Huang Huan's words, Xueyan immediately revealed a happy smile.

"Brother Tuoba, you wanted me to go to the ruins of the Jiu Gu family. Could it be that you want me to borrow the spatial teleportation formation there to go to the Divine Soul Continent?" Lee Xun had roughly guessed Tuoba Gui's plan.

"Well, that is only one of the purposes. Furthermore, I believe that the ruins of the Jiugu Family are definitely number one in terms of Sword Soul Continent. And I believe that, until now, the ruins of the Jiugu Family must have been preserved to a very complete extent. Right now, your strength has reached the standard that I gave you before, so you can enter the Divine Soul Continent by yourself using the dimensional teleportation formation. I also hope that you can reap some rewards from the ruins. However, you must remember one thing, you cannot use any divine tools or Spatial Ring s in that ruin. Even the Spiritual Beast Companion s in the contracted space are unable to come out to help you, so you can only rely on yourself for everything. "

"That's right, all relics with age restrictions have this characteristic. This is to prevent people from cheating and to affect the reliability of the screening process." Huang Huan explained.

Regarding this point, Lee Xun could understand it. For example, with the help of a strong expert at the peak of King Rank like Xiyin, passing through these age-limited ruins would simply be too easy. If he could get a contract with Xiyin, then this situation could very well happen to others, especially if someone intentionally cheated, then wouldn't this method of age restricted talent selection become a huge joke?

"Big Bro Tuoba, I understand now. May I know where the ruins are located?" Lee Xun asked.

"At the moment, we don't know where exactly is that relic, but we have a map and a key to go there. Do you still remember what those Seclusion Family fought for the first time we met? "

"You mean the nine keys."

"Yes, those nine keys. We already know that the Helan Empire Imperial Family has one in their hands. Thinking about it, it won't be difficult for you to come here, other than to find you, they won't be able to find a suitable person to explore the ruins. As for the last key, Tianyin Sect had always known where it was, but they had never been able to take it out. Fortunately, someone managed to find a way this time, believing that they would be able to collect all the keys after a period of time, and make a complete map out of it. "
