The Chu Clan was located in the center of the Trading Island and was one of the five controlling forces. The Chu Clan was full of powerhouses and had been glorious for thousands of years. In the entire 36 islands, the Chu Clan was considered one of the top forces.
Whenever the Chu Clan is mentioned, every cultivator on the Trading Island will think of this giant. Everyone knows about them and everyone knows about them. However, the most famous thing about the Chu Clan was not their terrifying capabilities. It was the relic left behind by the founder of the Chu Clan.
This relic was named the Tower of the Seventh Soul. It was known to be able to suppress all demons and gods in the world. In the entire 36 islands, it was one of the most powerful treasures.
The Chu Clan ancestor used the power of this treasure to overcome all obstacles on the path of cultivation. He established his name as a powerhouse and created a millennium-old clan!
In other words, half of the Chu Clan's glory today was due to the Tower of the Seventh Soul. It was because of this treasure that the Chu Clan was able to compete against the other clans thousands of years ago and claim one-fifth of the Trading Island. It was also because of this treasure that the Chu Clan was able to stand strong for thousands of years and prevent enemies from invading!
This was why this treasure was called the Pillar of the Sea by the Trading Island. In other words, as long as the Chu Clan has this treasure, they can stop all storms!
There was an interesting rumor about this treasure. It was said that after the Chu Clan ancestor passed away, he placed many treasures inside the Tower of the Seventh Soul. As long as the next generation can pass the test, they can acquire the treasures.
One has to admit that the Chu Clan ancestor's idea was good. He wanted to use this to motivate the next generation. What was laughable was that after thousands of years, the descendants of the Chu Clan had only passed the first five levels. They could not even pass the sixth level, let alone the seventh level.
This made the Chu Clan a laughing stock.
The Chu Clan ancestor spent a lot of effort to place all the treasures inside the Tower of the Seventh Soul in order to motivate the next generation. But the result was that none of the next generation lived up to his expectations. No matter how hard they tried, they could not pass the test.
Because of this, the Chu Clan had many headaches. Sadly, no matter how hard they tried, they could not pass the test. What could they do? The Tower of the Seventh Soul was far too difficult. It was so difficult that everyone felt hopeless!
There was even a rumor that the Chu Clan once invited the number one Hidden Dragon to try. Unfortunately, the result was that the number one monster had only managed to clear the sixth level before being defeated.
From this, it was obvious how difficult it was to defeat the Tower of the Seventh Soul!
At this moment, the sun hung high in the sky. It was noon.
In the study room of the Chu Clan Leader, two middle-aged men were holding a cup of fragrant tea in their hands, deep in thought.
The man on the left wearing a golden robe was the head of the Chu Clan, Chu Xing He. The man on the right wearing a white robe was his younger brother, Chu Xing Yun.
Currently, the two of them were discussing the Tower of the Seventh Soul.
"Big brother, what if that Heaven's Favorite named Ling Xian really gets through the Tower of the Seventh Soul? Does that mean the Chu Clan has to ally with him?" Chu Xing Yun suddenly asked.
Chu Xing He revealed a victorious smile and said, "Don't worry. No matter how talented that person is, he won't be able to break through our Chu Family's Sea Stabilizing Pillar. Don't you know how hard it is to break through this treasure?"
"That's true. Even the No.1 Hidden Dragon only reached the sixth level. There is no way he is stronger than the No.1 Hidden Dragon." Chu Xing Yun faintly grinned, not believing that Ling Xian had the ability to get through the Tower of the Seventh Soul.
"Isn't that it? If it's impossible, why should we waste our time thinking about it? "Chu Xinghe said with a playful smile.
"Haha, big brother, you are right." Chu Xing Yun laughed out loud. But very quickly, he frowned, "Big brother, I think Yan Xiong Fei is right. We should unite and fight against that mysterious force."
"I've thought about this as well. It's highly likely that the mysterious organization is targeting our five great clans. But that is merely a guess. What if the mysterious force has no such intentions? If we act rashly, the Chu Clan's thousands of years of history will be lost. " Chu Xing He softly sighed, "Plus, the other two Clans didn't choose to ally with us. Instead, they asked Ling Xian to do something for them. Of course, we will not be the first to stand out."
"That makes sense."
Chu Xing Yun paused and grinned, "No matter what, the Chu Clan will not be at a disadvantage."
"That's right. If he cannot get through the Tower of the Seventh Soul, then we have a reason to reject the alliance." Chu Xing He softly nodded, "If he does, then we will gain a lot of treasures and our capabilities will increase. When that time comes, we can choose to form an alliance and seize the opportunity to swallow up the mysterious power, making our Chu clan even more glorious. "
"Of course, he cannot get through it. Therefore, the alliance is out of the question." Chu Xing He added, his voice was full of certainty.
"Haha, that's right." Chu Xing Yun didn't think highly of Ling Xian either.
"So, let's not think about these things anymore. The result has already been decided." Chu Xing He softly chuckled and made his decision.
Seeing this, Chu Xing Yun didn't say anything else. He changed the topic, "Right, big brother, do you know what kind of treasure is hidden on the seventh level of the Tower?"
"Aye, I get a headache every time you bring it up."
Chu Xing He sighed and shook his head, "I don't know either. I only know that it is an invaluable treasure that can only be acquired by getting through the seventh level."
"Even you don't know …"
Seeing that Chu Xing He didn't look like he was faking, Chu Xing Yun stayed silent for a while and bitterly smiled, "Our ancestors sure have nothing better to do. Why didn't they just leave the treasure for their descendants? Why did they have to create a barrier? That's why the Chu Clan has had a headache for thousands of years. "
"Who doesn't agree?"
Chu Xing He sighed, "Aye, our ancestor's idea was good. He hoped to use this to motivate the descendants. Sadly, we are so disappointing. It's been thousands of years and we still can't get through it. "
"It's all because the barriers are too difficult. Inside, we can only summon the strength of the foundational level. But in the past thousand years, the Chu Clan has never produced a victor of the foundational level." Chu Xing Yun sighed, feeling helpless.
"Even a victor of the foundational level may not be able to get through. The first Hidden Dragon was a victor. Sadly, he only managed to get through the first six levels. After the seventh level, there is nothing he can do." Chu Xing He was also feeling helpless.
Just as the two of them were sighing, they suddenly heard a voice coming from afar. It was like a clap of thunder!
"I am Xian Ling. I am here to visit the Chu Clan!"
Hearing this, Chu Xing He revealed a teasing smile, "This person sure doesn't know the immensity of Heaven and Earth. He really came."
"Haha, interesting. I bet he is full of confidence right now. Sadly, he cannot get through the Chu Clan's Sea of Calmness. "Chu Xing Yun revealed a sarcastic smile, mocking Ling Xian for overestimating himself.
Just as he predicted, Ling Xian was full of confidence right now.
After a month-long journey, not only did he successfully arrive at the Chu Clan, but he also guessed that the Chu Clan was going to give him a hard time.
After he found out about the Tower of the Seventh Soul, his original 50% confidence turned into 80%.
Even the first Hidden Dragon got through the sixth level. Ling Xian did not think he was weaker than him!
"The Tower of the Seventh Soul … I sure want to see if you live up to your name …"
Ling Xian floated in midair and stared at the mountain-like pagoda. His eyes flashed with heat.
