Soul Palace No. 1 Player

Chapter 972 Looking for a venue

One day later, in the Broken Boundary Mountains between the Eastern and Northern Regions of Zhongzhou, Gu Zhen and Gu Yan were waiting on a high mountain.

Gu Yan stamped his feet anxiously:
"Why don't you treat your injury first?"

Gu Zhen: "How can this be handled? It absolutely cannot be handled!"

Gu Yan: "Your face is as swollen as a pig, and your eyes are as black as a panda. How can the deputy pavilion master see you in such a miserable state?"

Gu Zhen: "You don't understand, this is the way of the world!"

"Social skills? How can this be called social skills after being beaten like this by Lingjie?"

Gu Yan clenched his fists and pretended to give Gu Zhen another facelift.

There were ripples in the space, and the conspicuous blood-red cloak made Gu Yan quickly retract his hand:
"Welcome to the Vice Pavilion Master!"

Gu Zhen also clasped his fists and saluted:

"Welcome to the Vice Pavilion Master!"

Yang Shan smiled and said:

"I told you that we don't have to greet each other every time we meet, huh? Gu Zhen, what's wrong with your face?"

Gu Zhen smiled bitterly: "Uh, I was beaten by the Lingjie of the Ling Clan. I am guilty and have brought shame to the Deputy Pavilion Master."

Yang Shan glanced at Gu Zhen unhappily:
"Are you embarrassing me? Gu Zhen, you are really calculating!"

Gu Zhen was embarrassed: "Uh, Deputy Pavilion Master"

Yang Shan shook his head:
"Lead the way, I, the deputy pavilion master, will find a place for you!"

Gu Zhen laughed:

"Thank you, Vice Pavilion Master! Gu Yan! Gu Yan!"

Gu Yan: "Hey, what's wrong?"

Gu Zhen took out the healing medicine from the ring and said:

"You lead the way, I'll follow behind and apply some medicine on your face."

Only at this time did Gu Yan understand.

It turns out that he left the scar on his face on purpose, hoping to ask Yang Shan to help him.
But Yang Shan stopped Gu Zhen:
"You need an excuse to find a place, so put aside your dignity for now."

Gu Zhen was stunned for a moment, then immediately gave a thumbs up:
"The deputy pavilion master is really thoughtful!"

Gu Yan was a competent "tour guide". While leading the way, he also explained to Yang Shan the situation of the eight-tribe grand event.

The clan territories of the eight ancient tribes are all independent spaces opened up by their ancestors, the powerful Dou Di.

The power of the Dou Emperor is vast and boundless. The space he opens up is not only huge, but also connected to the main plane of the Douqi Continent, and it has almost complete plane rules.

The alternation of day and night and the flow of spiritual energy are no different from those in the outside world.

To be honest, in terms of the richness of the energy of heaven and earth, the Dou Di space set up by Dou Di powerful people is not much different from Zhongzhou.

It is then continuously maintained by generations of Dou Sheng masters, thus ensuring the long-term stability of the Dou Di space.

However, outsiders are not allowed to enter the tribal territories of each ethnic group unless in special circumstances.

In the original novel, the ancient world had held a grand event and invited the eight ancient tribes and even some strong men from Zhongzhou to attend the ceremony.

In the game, similar events have been held jointly by major ancient races.

The venue is a place controlled by the eight clans.
Doudi Space Ruins——

Ancient Emperor Tianwu!

The era in which this ancient Emperor Tianwu lived was a time of great chaos rarely seen in ten thousand years.

It is said that at that time there were a total of seventeen ancient tribes coexisting in the entire Douqi Continent, and there were more than twenty transcendent forces in Zhongzhou!
The Tianwu Ancient Emperor was a subordinate force of a supernatural force in Zhongzhou at that time.
This force can only barely make it into the second-rate.

Before he was sixteen years old, Ancient Emperor Tianwu was considered a loser among losers. He worked as a menial disciple for three years and was not even promoted to the outer sect. He was almost kicked out.

Later, by chance, he found a seventh-level spiritual plant, but this was known to the outer sect's chief disciple.

The eldest outer sect disciple wanted a seventh-level spiritual plant but didn't want to pay, so he secretly sent someone to kill him. However, he didn't expect that when the ancient emperor Tianwu was between life and death, he had a supreme physique hidden in his body - the Immortal Battle Body!
This is the legendary supreme physique that surpasses the top physique! And it is unique to the human race!
With an immortal fighting body, one can come back to life by relying on his own will when faced with a life-or-death crisis. Moreover, he can absorb unique "fighting intent" during battle and quickly improve his cultivation.

So, the ancient emperor Tianwu killed the outer sect disciple.

Afterwards, in just five years, the Ancient Emperor Tianwu fought three hundred battles, and fought his way up from the second-rate force he initially served!

When Ancient Emperor Tianwu stood in the promotion competition for true disciples of the transcendent forces in Zhongzhou, he had already transformed from an inconspicuous fighting master five years ago to the famous "Reverend Tianwu"!
It happened to be a turbulent time when many heroes emerged, and many transcendent forces were vying for the opportunity to become the Emperor of Fighting.

The ancient emperor Tianwu cleared the way with his fists, absorbing the fighting spirit along the way and taking away the loser's chance.

From Dou Zun to the entry level, from the entry level to the realm of Dou Sheng, skipping the semi-saint level
When Tianwu Ancient Emperor unclenched his fist, he looked back suddenly. He had become the strongest person in the world, standing out from a group of nine-star fighting saints of transcendental forces, and was the first to reach the end of the road to emperor.

The legend of the ancient emperor Tianwu is filled with only battles. Not to mention offspring, he doesn’t even have a beauty!
But the ancient Emperor Tianwu did not seem to be satisfied with the status quo, and had no plans to inherit the bloodline of the Dou Emperor.

He opened up a Dou Di space in the Broken Boundary Mountains between the Eastern and Northern Regions of Zhongzhou, left behind his own heritage for the benefit of future generations, then broke through the space and never returned.

The Dou Di space he left behind is called the "Wu Di space" and is opened once every ten years.

Therefore, the grand gathering of the eight ancient tribes is also held once every ten years!
Of course, this grand event is now called the Grand Event of the Eight Ancient Tribes, but it was actually called the Grand Event of the Twelve Ancient Tribes in the past.

At the event, people from various ancient races fought each other because they had to fight in order to obtain the inheritance of the Emperor Martial Space.

So far, the inheritance of the Emperor Martial Space has been triggered a total of 3,725 times.

According to different opportunities, the eight ancient tribes divided them into different levels of special physiques:
Supreme, top, first class, quasi-first class, second class.

Among them, the worst second-class opportunities are excellent opportunities for a Dou Zun to lay the foundation for becoming a semi-saint!
This kind of opportunity is also the most frequently triggered opportunity. Quasi-first-class opportunities are of great benefit to semi-saints.

As for the first-class, top-class and supreme, they are all at the level of Douluo!

However, in the past seven thousand years, the top opportunities have been triggered only thirty-one times in total.

The supreme opportunity has only been triggered twice!
The two supreme opportunities were triggered by Hun Shengtian, the previous patriarch of the Hun clan, and Xiao Xuan, the current patriarch of the Xiao clan.
The reason why the old patriarch of the Soul Clan, Hun Shengtian, dared to stir up chaos five thousand years ago was because after obtaining the supreme opportunity, his combat power increased dramatically, and the Soul Clan also had another nine-star Dou Sheng at that time.
When Xiao Xuan was still young, his strength was comparable to that of Emperor Hun Tian and Gu Yuan.

But ever since Xiao Xuan obtained that supreme opportunity, the gap between Xiao Xuan's combat power and the latter two gradually began to appear.

It can be said that Xiao Xuan’s current recognition as the human race’s number one combat power is absolutely inseparable from this supreme opportunity!
An old tradition of the Eight Clans Gathering is to fight!

Anytime, anywhere, as long as both parties agree, we can make an appointment!

Even if they don't agree, you can still take action directly.

But if one party takes action without consent, they must restrain themselves. Not to mention killing someone, even if they cause disability, they will be held accountable.

Only when both parties sign a life and death agreement and go onto the stage can the fight of life and death be decided seriously.

Of course, life and death is one thing, but whether or not to die is another.

The new generation of geniuses of the eight ancient clans, even if they are useless people who only rely on bloodline to survive, can still carry on the family line in the clan.

Therefore, each tribe is willing to pay a high price to save the life of the genius in the tribe.

Signing a life and death agreement is more like a gamble!
Of course, Ling Jie, who attacked Gu Zhen, did not sign a life and death agreement.

From Gu Zhen, Yang Shan learned that Ling Jie seemed to be interested in Gu Yan. When they met today, he wanted to stick to Gu Yan.

How could Gu Zhen endure this? He couldn't wait that long, so he just took action and beat Ling Jie up.

But Ling Jie is the strongest of the new generation of the Ling Clan except for the young patriarch Ling Fu and the ninth-grade bloodline Ling Xuan. Although Gu Zhen has long surpassed the potential limit of the seventh-grade bloodline, his cultivation has just broken through to the primary semi-saint level.

That spiritual genius is a mid-level semi-saint!
As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the Tianwu space.

There were originally no large-scale buildings in the Tianwu space, but the eight ancient tribes built a city called "Tianwu City" here as the venue for the grand event.

Before entering the city, Yang Shan saw the ten arenas in the north of the city.

The arena is only a thousand feet long and wide, which is not wide enough for a Dou Sheng powerhouse.

But Yang Shan could sense the terrifying force of space from the arena. He thought that the arena must have spatial layers. It might look small, but in fact the space inside was very vast.

At this moment, there were a lot of people surrounding the two arenas.

Yang Shan saw Lingxuan, a talented girl from the Spirit Clan whom he had met before.

Lingxuan is also a direct competitor of Su Yitong and Murong Yan in Yin Valley.

The Lan Clan that Murong Yan belongs to is still recovering and must hide itself. Yin Gu alone has no way of rejecting the joining of the Ling Clan.

So, in this way
Yang Shan: "Let's go to the ring!"

Gu Yan: "Deputy Pavilion Master, you have been traveling all the way, let's go into the city and rest first. The clan leader is always thinking about you!"

Yang Shan: "It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. Let's get back the favor for Gu Zhen first."

Yang Shan brought Gu Zhen and Gu Yan to the edge of the ring, and only then did Yang Shan see that two people were fighting in the ring.

Yang Shan did not know one of them, but the other one.
Damn, Hunli is such a stupid teammate!
Yang Shan almost couldn't hold back and slapped him!

"Brother Lingjie! Come on!"

"The Soul Clan is no longer what it used to be. Get him! Get him!"

Very good, this average-looking guy must be Lingjie, right?

Yang Shan took a look at Ling Jie's actual combat.

Well, his skills are pretty good, and he's not the kind of person who's there to be slapped in the face by other players.

But that’s about it.

Being only an intermediate semi-saint, Yang Shan felt that he had lost face whenever he used his two hands!

On the side of the Spirit Clan, Lingxuan, a talented girl who was surrounded by a group of geniuses, immediately noticed Yang Shan.

"Yang Shan? You are not from the Eight Ancient Clans, why are you here?"

Gu Zhen said coldly:
"You have no rules! Lingxuan, make yourself clear. You must be polite to our deputy pavilion master and address him as Lord Yang!"

At this moment, Ling Jie defeated Hun Li and jumped down from the stage:

"Oh! It's Yang Shengjun, the number one genius in Zhongzhou. What a grand show! You let the great commander of the Ancient Clan, Gu Zhen, serve as your dog!"

Snapped!
As soon as Ling Jie finished speaking, a slap condensed by the internal energy hit Ling Jie in the face.

Yang Shan controlled his strength very well, so the slap was not very lethal, it just made Ling Jie stagger a little.

But there were clear fingerprints left on Lingjie's face!

Ling Jie's anger suddenly emerged:

"Yang Shan! You."

Snapped!
"you dare."

Snap, snap, snap, snap.
After twelve slaps in a row, Yang Shan slapped Lingjie until his head turned into a pig's.
