Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

As the other person began to speak, Xiao Fan found that the distance between them seemed to be gradually closing.

The space separating the two seemed to gradually fade, and the other person's figure gradually approached Xiao Fan. However, countless chains still blocked their view.

Within this bizarre space, none of Xiao Fan's fighting spirit, soul power, or even his Chaos Fire stirred, making it impossible to use them to ascertain the other party's identity.

However, the other party did not give Xiao Fan a chance to refute, and continued to mock him:

"Look, when you were in the Spirit Realm, you used up all your resources, wasn't that great? They all turned into your own strength. If you had done that earlier, you would have already reached the Dou Di level. Why would you only be at the peak of Dou Zun now?"

Xiao Fan listened to the other person's words, but his expression did not change. Instead, he stared at the other person and said directly:

"What you're saying now is completely meaningless."

Xiao Fan knew in his heart that what the other party said was true, after all, this was something he had personally tested with his own body before, and it could indeed be directly converted into his cultivation.

"Shouldn't you first clarify who you are? Or, what is our relationship—cooperation? Parasitism? Or... will it ultimately be a fight to the death?"

"Hahahahahaha........."

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the other party seemed to have heard an extremely funny joke. Even the chains connecting him to his body collided because of his movements, causing the runes on them to gradually light up.

"In terms you can understand..."

After laughing, the other person turned to look at the runes on the chains, cursed under their breath, and then replied to Xiao Fan.

“My name is… It is unspeakable to you right now, just as I just said, but you cannot perceive it. This is also due to the difference in our levels of understanding.”

"However, I can answer some of your questions. Let me explain in terms you can understand. As for me... you can think of me as the ultimate powerhouse from the Great Thousand Worlds. However, I was betrayed by a villain and was eventually sealed by the Heavenly Dao. I escaped here, and now... I am gradually recovering. So I created your so-called system to break free from the seal. It's that simple."

"......"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan fell silent for a moment. There was definitely some truth to what the other person said, but Xiao Fan didn't believe it all.

"The vast world..."

"Yes."

"The levels of the Great Thousand World and this Dou Qi Continent are different. The system you possess, while merely a relatively low-level technique in the Great Thousand World, is practically capable of propelling you to your peak on this continent. What I need to do is use your ability to unify this continent, extract a wisp of the Heavenly Dao's aura, and break one of the shackles binding you..."

As Xiao Fan listened to the other party's words, his gaze fell on the chains on his body. On one of the runes, he sensed a faint, familiar aura, which was the fluctuation of battle qi.

Xiao Fan's pupils constricted sharply. If what the other party said was true, then the other party's existence...

"Alright kid, time is running out. You don't doubt my purpose. You've come to this world with a new life, and my goal is to break my own seal. Everything you have is given to you by me through the system. There is no conflict of interest between us."

The chains gradually wrapped around the other person, and the other person's hoarse voice faded into the distance from Xiao Fan's ears...

"By the way, although the Heavenly Dao is a bit stupid, it can always meddle in everything. So the system I gave you has also been tampered with by it. That so-called...@#￥, it's blocking me again. When I get out, I'll slaughter your original universe..."

The darkness in his vision gradually faded, and Xiao Fan took a step forward. Nothing around him changed at all. The time that had just passed seemed to be a different flow of time for the Dou Qi Continent.

"Deputy Commander, what's wrong?"

When Hunyu and Hunze saw Xiao Fan stop, they immediately became alert and asked him questions.

Since Xiao Fan spoke frankly with them, the two seem to have understood a lot. At least so far, they have never held Xiao Fan back and have always been conscientious and responsible.

Chapter 15: Ancient Battlefield of the Netherworld

Even after breaking Hunze and Hunyu's heads, they never imagined that Xiao Fan would experience such a thing in such a short moment.

What did he mean by his last words...?

Xiao Fan was still replaying in his mind the words the mysterious figure hadn't finished saying when the meeting was almost over.

"The Way of Heaven can interfere in everything..."

What exactly does this sentence mean...?

As Xiao Fan pondered in his mind, a sudden inspiration struck him.

The figure within the mysterious space stated that the Heavenly Dao can interfere in everything, and it seems the other party was implying that there are loopholes left by the Heavenly Dao within this system as well...

Since Source Coins can be exchanged for almost everything on the Dou Qi Continent, then what about the system's...?

Xiao Fan's eyes narrowed sharply; the system's shop and so-called lottery module...

Although Xiao Fan had a guess in his mind, he was not sure, but a seed of doubt had already been planted in his heart.

"nothing."

After finishing his thoughts, Xiao Fan responded to Hun Ze and Hun Yu beside him.

Seeing the two people's puzzled looks, Xiao Fan didn't bother to explain and instead walked deeper into the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield.

"The Blood River Clan was one of the ancient races. They possessed extraordinary control over bloodline power and were once an extremely powerful race. However, they later coveted the bloodlines of other races and were wiped out by the combined forces of the Spirit Devouring Clan and our clan. This area is now the battlefield where the Blood River Clan was annihilated. Over the years, the lingering resentment within has become a valuable training ground. It's just unexpected that a resentful spirit at the peak of the Dou Zun realm would appear here..."

Hunze looked at the familiar scenery around him and felt a sense of emotion.

As Xiao Fan listened to Hun Ze's introduction, his eyes flickered, and he extended his soul power. However, within this Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, his soul power seemed to be greatly weakened, and the range he could probe was limited after leaving his body.

However, this was information that Xiao Fan had already known. There was an array set up by the Soul Emperor in the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, which naturally suppressed the soul power within.

This is also to prevent too many powerful vengeful spirits from appearing there.

Xiao Fan felt the oppression in the space, and his eyes flickered.

He understood just how cunning and shrewd the Soul Emperor was; everything the other party did had only one purpose—to break through to the Dou Di realm.

so..........

Xiao Fan didn't believe that the Soul Emperor would be so kind as to go to such great lengths just to train the disciples of the Soul Clan.

In Xiao Fan's opinion...

Among the ancient races, the Soul Palace, the Ancient Clan, and the Xiao Clan are undoubtedly the strongest of the three.

However, among the three clans, only Soul Emperor and Xiao Xuan possessed the necessary courage and decisiveness.

They both knew that the root of all the chaos lay with the Dou Di. Once they broke through to the Dou Di level, the conflicts and divisions between the various races would cease to exist.

Therefore, Xiao Xuan was extremely courageous, betting all the bloodline power of the Xiao clan in an attempt to break through to the Dou Di realm.

His talent is undeniable, reaching a level that no one can match. Even the Soul Emperor, who is also a late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng, is extremely wary of him.

It's just a pity...

They were unaware of the existence of Origin Qi, which led to Xiao Xuan's ultimate failure despite his best efforts, and ultimately caused the Xiao Clan to disappear from history.

The Soul Emperor's ambition and strategic planning were equally extraordinary.

They began their scheme in ancient times, and after killing the chieftain of the Devouring Spirit Clan, they secretly concealed his methods of absorbing various races. They also formed a cooperation with the Void Devouring Flame to plot against the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Palace.

Ultimately, they orchestrated the complete annihilation of the remaining races. If it weren't for the fact that members of the Medicine Clan sacrificed themselves during the extermination of the Medicine Clan, allowing Xiao Yan to escape by chance, probably no one would have known that the other races had been wiped out.

In the end, the Soul Emperor also obtained the desired Emperor-grade embryonic pill from the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Mansion.

He just didn't expect that the Ancient Dragon Emperor Zhukun, who had also reached the level of a nine-star Dou Sheng, was also sealed inside.

Facing two opponents alone, the strength of the two nine-star Dou Sheng far exceeded his plans, and in the end, he could only let me, Void Devouring Flame, go.

It was because the Void Devouring Flame concealed the news about the Strange Flame Plaza that Xiao Yan was able to break through.

Even though someone else broke through to the Dou Di realm with him, Hun Tiandi took countermeasures. However, he did not expect that his Dou Di Slaying Formation, which sacrificed his entire clan, would be defeated by Xiao Yan's Strange Fire Eternal Ruler.

The failure in intelligence gathering was the more fundamental reason for Xiao Xuan and the Soul Emperor's defeat.

Xiao Xuan had not anticipated the existence of Origin Qi.

The Soul Emperor was unaware of Zhu Kun's existence, as well as the news about the Strange Fire Plaza, which was concealed by the Void Devouring Flame.

After all, who would have thought that, besides the Emperor-grade embryonic pills in the Ancient Emperor's Cave, the Strange Fire Plaza was also a legacy of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor?

Both men were decisive and resourceful, but unfortunately, fate was not on their side.

In contrast, Gu Yuan, who was also a clan leader among the ancient tribes...

As the patriarch of one of the three upper clans and the strongest being of the ancient clan, he was hesitant and restrained by the ancient clan. Even within his own clan, he was often held back by the elders.

Compared to Xiao Xuan and Hun Tiandi, Gu Yuan undoubtedly appears much more mediocre.

Therefore, as Xiao Fan sensed the gathering of resentment within the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield, he pondered the purpose behind Soul Emperor's actions.

"Three people per team, spread out immediately. Once the location of the Blood River Clan's resentment is discovered, immediately raise the alarm, and everyone gathers to attack!"

Xiao Fan spoke calmly, and the Heavenly Soul Guards around him had no objections.

After all, the area is not small, and only by separating the two can we find the target more effectively.

"You two are the same, each leading a team to search separately. If you find any other Blood River Clan vengeful spirits, you can take action to eliminate them first."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Hunze and Hunyu nodded calmly and led their respective teams to leave in opposite directions, quickly disappearing from the spot.

"A place like this, where soul perception is blocked, is a natural ambush site if you want to make a move. Don't disappoint me..."

As Xiao Fan watched the two groups of people gradually disappear from sight, he then chose a direction and flew over.

He sent everyone out partly to test Hunze and Hunyu's attitudes.

On the other hand, he also wanted to investigate this so-called Netherworld Ancient Battlefield alone, to find out what kind of purpose was hidden there.

Xiao Fan would be more than willing to cause trouble for the Soul Emperor.

Xiao Fan traversed through the Netherworld Ancient Battlefield. This so-called Blood River Clan area was permeated with a faint resentment, or rather, the entire Netherworld Ancient Battlefield was filled with a faint resentment. The source of this resentment seemed to originate from the void and permeated the entire Netherworld Ancient Battlefield.

However, they were all firmly sealed within this eerie array.
