Middle Ground, Middle Region, Pill City.
This was a simple-looking nine-story pagoda. The pagoda had eight corners, and each corner was formed by three intertwining divine dragons. Just looking at it gave off a majestic aura.
The unknown metal material could not only release a dazzling light, but it also had bits of blue-green light mixed in. It was like the stars in the night sky. It was very magical.
Countless alchemists were sparring around the Pill Pagoda.
Rumble!
Just as these alchemists were immersed in refining medicine, a loud sound suddenly came from above the Pill Pagoda. Then, a huge crack appeared.
Hearing this, the alchemists' hands trembled. Some of them even almost destroyed their spirit pills because of this loud sound. They all looked up.
Everyone's expression froze when they saw it.
"That's the Ancient … Ancient Void Dragon!"
"What's going on? Why is the overlord of the beast race in Pill City? "
After recognizing the huge creature above the Pill Pagoda, the alchemists' jaws dropped. They looked at each other in shock. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
More and more figures flew out from the Pill Pagoda. Among them were Xuan Kong Zi, Xuan Yi, and Tian Leizi.
"May I know why you've come to my Pill Pagoda?" Xuan Kong Zi looked at the Ancient Void Dragon in the sky and frowned.
The Ancient Void Dragon turned into a middle-aged man. He first cupped his fists at Xuan Kong Zi and said, "Recently, the Soul Hall has been very active. They've hurt many innocent cultivators. They've even destroyed a force many times. Boss Chu has decided that tomorrow morning, he will destroy the Soul Hall's headquarters alone! If you're interested, come to Tianhuang City's Bluestone Plaza before tomorrow morning. "
The Ancient Void Dragon's loud voice was like rolling thunder. With the Pill Pagoda as the center, it spread far and wide until it covered the entire Pill City.
Then, the Ancient Void Dragon broke through space and appeared in another part of Pill City. He kept repeating the same words.
"What? He's going to destroy the Soul Hall's headquarters alone? "
"Did I hear wrongly?"
"Boss Chu? Could it be that mysterious merchant who's been in the limelight recently and everyone is talking about him? "
"What's his relationship with the Ancient Void Dragon?"
…
In an instant, all the big and small forces, teahouses, taverns, and people on the streets began to talk about it.
"What do you two think?" Xuan Kong Zi glanced at Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi.
"Of course I have to go and take a look." Xuan Yi said, "If he can really destroy the Soul Hall's headquarters, that would be for the best. Even if he can't, we can still help him."
"Just as I thought," Tian Leizi said.

Burning Flame Valley.
Inside the valley, a group of disciples were still busy cleaning up the aftermath of the battle.
Upon closer inspection, these disciples' faces were filled with worry. Soul Palace had invaded, and many of their good brothers had died. They were separated by life and death.
Rumble!
Another loud sound rang out.
An Ancient Void Dragon appeared out of thin air.
Before the disciples of the Burning Flame Valley could utter a sound of shock, the Ancient Void Dragon had already let out a vigorous voice that reverberated through the entire valley. The contents of its words were practically the same.
After saying that, he quickly disappeared.
"What was that?!"
"I think I've seen it in an ancient book! I remember now. It's one of the three overlords of the Demonic Beasts, the Ancient Void Dragon! "
"Did you hear what he had just said? Boss Chu will destroy the Soul Hall's headquarters tomorrow! "
… …
Looking at the disappearing Ancient Void Dragon, the disciples began to regain their senses.
Tang Zhen and Elder Chi Huo also flew out of the large hall. They were startled as they looked in the direction where the Ancient Void Dragon had disappeared. The other party's words still lingered in their ears.
"Valley Chief, this Boss Chu is about to attack the Soul Hall!" Elder Chi Huo looked at Tang Zhen.
"Tomorrow morning, gather all the experts above the Dou Wang class in the valley and prepare to follow Boss Chu to destroy the Soul Hall, this scourge of the Central Plains!" Tang Zhen's eyes hardened as he gave the order.
Sound Valley.
It was a dreamlike fairyland.
This place was filled with a dense fairy aura. The mountains were green, the valleys were green, the waterfalls flowed, the red-crowned cranes danced, and the Longevity Apes jumped happily. The top of each mountain was connected to each other. It was like a poem or a painting, causing one to be intoxicated.
Hundreds and thousands of disciples were training in the large open ground.
The sudden appearance of an Ancient Void Dragon caused the circulation of the Dou Qi within the bodies of the disciples in the open ground to a standstill.
The same words drifted within the valley.
After which, the Ancient Void Dragon disappeared. It had only been a few seconds.
"Why did I sense a powerful Magical Beast aura? What happened?"
Not long after the Ancient Void Dragon left, a white-clothed figure flew out from deep within the valley.
"Valley Chief, you have exited your retreat so quickly!" An elder stepped forward.
"I was interrupted by that voice," the white-clothed figure said.
Hearing this, the elder hurriedly recounted the matter of the Ancient Void Dragon's arrival to the white-clothed figure.
"Valley Chief, what do you think?" After speaking, the elder asked the white-clothed figure.
"Naturally, we must go! If this Boss Chu is really able to eliminate the Soul Hall, he can be considered the benefactor of the Central Plains. "The white-clothed figure focused his eyes as he spoke.

Two hours later.
With all the adult dragons on Dragon Island mobilized, Ancient Void Dragons descended from the sky above the various large factions and cities in the Central Plains.
Due to the special status of the Ancient Void Dragon in the Beast Tribe, the various large practitioners even began to guess the relationship between Chu Bei and the other party.
As time passed, many experts also began to take action. They headed to the Bluestone Square in Tianhuang City overnight.
In an unknown mountain range in the Central Region.
Outside the mountain range, the forest was lush and full of vitality.
However, deep within the mountain range, the scenery was poles apart from the outside. The forest was withered and lifeless, and the air was filled with an eerie aura.
However, at a glance, there was nothing special about the depths of the mountain range.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a black figure flew over from afar and landed in a certain location.
He opened his right hand and placed it above the void. With a piercing sound, a translucent boundary appeared.
Within the barrier, there was another scene. It was a vast plain shrouded in black fog.
On the plain, many tall buildings stood in an orderly manner.
In the center of these buildings, there was an exceptionally majestic hall. The black fog surrounding it was much stronger than the other buildings. As the black fog surged, it gave off an eerie and terrifying feeling.
At this moment, teams of figures with powerful auras were constantly patrolling the periphery of the vast plain.
As for the black figure that had just entered from the outside world, he flew straight to the hall in the center.
"Has the Hall Chief come out of his retreat?"
The black figure immediately inquired the others in the hall the moment he arrived.
At a glance, there were over fifty people in the hall. The weakest among them was a Two Star Dou Zun.
Any one of these Dou Zuns could establish a top tier faction in the Central Plains.
"The Hall Chief and Deputy Hall Chief are still in a retreat."
The Hall of Souls Honorable Elders in the hall frowned when they heard the black figure's question. "Did something happen outside?"
The black figure had a grave expression. He paused for a moment before telling them about the shattering of the First Tianzun, Third Tianzun, and Fifth Tianzun's soul jades, the Ancient Void Dragon, and Chu Bei's plan to destroy the Hall of Souls' headquarters tomorrow.
"The First Tianzun and the other two have been killed!"
"Was it done by that so-called Boss Chu?"
"If that is the case, won't his cultivation be at least a three star Dou Sheng?"
"Why is it that our Hall of Souls' intelligence network does not have any information about him?"
"Could it be that he is a member of the remaining seven clans?"
"Hmph! No matter what his background is, I want to see how he will massacre our Hall of Souls tomorrow! "
"What I don't understand is that the Ancient Void Dragon has always hated humans. Why would they pass on information for this fellow? Currently, all the large factions in the Central Plains are aware of this. It is likely that many old faces will arrive tomorrow. "
"This is just as well. It saves us the trouble of defeating them one by one."
… …
The Hall of Souls Honorable Elders in the hall revealed ferocious expressions.

Central Plains, Gu Realm.
Unlike the headquarters of the Hall of Souls, this Gu Realm was truly a separate world. It was so large that it left one speechless.
At this moment, a purple-clothed young lady was happily walking on a quiet mountain path.
"Father, I am back!"
The purple-clothed young lady paused her footsteps. Her face was filled with joy as she waved her hand at the end of the path.
A figure stood with his hands behind his back at the end of the mountain path. Looking from a distance, he gave off a contradictory feeling. He was clearly standing there, but he also felt that they were tens of thousands of kilometers apart.
"Why have you thought of returning? Do you not want your Xiao Yan ge-ge? "
A voice that contained some jealousy exploded in the sky like thunder. However, it was not difficult to hear the joy in the voice because of the young lady's return.
The next moment, the figure at the end of the mountain path had already appeared in front of the purple-clothed young lady.
Fog lingered around the man's body. At first glance, he appeared like an ordinary middle-aged man. He was wearing simple linen clothes and a doting smile hung on his face. He gave off a feeling that he was easy to get along with.
However, if an elite Dou Zun or even an ordinary elite Dou Sheng were present, they would discover that they would feel an unknown pressure when facing this middle-aged man.
Gu Yuan, the clan leader of the Gu clan, one of the eight clans on the continent. He was an advanced Nine Stars Dou Sheng, an expert who truly stood at the peak of the Dou Qi continent!
"Father, you have been teasing me since I have returned." Xiao Xuner glared at Gu Yuan.
"Have you returned to quickly raise your strength?" Gu Yuan smiled as he looked at Xiao Xuner. It was as though he had seen through the purpose of Xiao Xuner's return.
Xiao Xuner was stunned as she looked at Gu Yuan. Her mouth was wide open, "Father, how did you know!"
"Your brother Xiao Yan has met a benefactor. His cultivation has already stepped into the Dou Huang class. You, on the other hand, are merely a Dou Ling. In order to follow in his footsteps, you will naturally need to quickly raise your strength. "The corner of Gu Yuan's mouth was lifted into a smile.
"Father, you already know!" Xiao Xuner was surprised.
"I also know that the person who gave Xiao Yan the opportunity is going to flatten the headquarters of the 'Hall of Souls' tomorrow." Gu Yuan adjusted the corner of his clothes and added in a faint voice.
"What? Boss Chu wants to go against the 'Hall of Souls'! Has he gone crazy? The 'Hall of Souls' does not lack elite Dou Shengs! "Xiao Xuner's expression changed when she heard Gu Yuan's words.
She was not worried about Chu Bei. Instead, she was worried about her brother Xiao Yan. She knew that Xiao Yan had also gone to the Central Region to look for Chu Bei.
If Chu Bei were to die, it would have nothing to do with her. However, if Xiao Yan was also implicated …
"No!"
Thinking of this, Xiao Xuner looked at Gu Yuan and hurriedly begged, "Father, I beg you to arrange for an elder in the clan to protect brother Xiao Yan. I am afraid that something will happen to him if he stays by Boss Chu's side. "
"Girl, your understanding of Boss Chu is still too little! Even in my clan, I'm afraid that there are very few people who are stronger than him. "Gu Yuan patted Xiao Xun 'er's head.
"Father, what do you mean by this? Has Boss Chu become so strong? "
Xiao Xuner did not know much about the recent events in the Central Region. Her understanding of Chu Bei was still at the level of being able to kill the 'Hall of Souls' Protector.
"The 'Hall of Souls' First Tianzun and Second Tianzun have both died in his hands." Gu Yuan said calmly.
