Flying Star Sect, Clear Void Dao Pavilion.
"Greetings, Grand Elder!"
Within the Great Assembly Hall of the Void God Peak, Pavilion Master Wei Xuanji, Great Elder Yuan Hua, and the others were already gathered together. They looked respectfully at the middle-aged man in front of them. He wore a black robe, had a thin body, and a cold expression. He was the Supreme Elder of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion, the third ranker on the revered list, Yuan Chao.
According to the news, it had been nearly ten years since the news had spread. Yuan Chao, who had been cultivating in the void of darkness, had finally returned to the Clear Void Dao Pavilion.
Yuan Chao was now the Supreme Elder, but he was also the former Pavilion Master of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion.
In addition, Yuan Chao's strength was extremely strong, so whether it was the current Pavilion Master Wei Xuanji, Yuan Hua, or the other elders, they were all extremely respectful to him.
"Everyone, there's no need to be so polite."
Yuan Chao waved his hand, his gaze sweeping across the crowd as he said in a deep voice, "My Clear Void Dao Pavilion has been around for countless years. Although it is known as the Black Yellow Dao Sect, Pangu Heaven Sect, and the other eight great sects, its strength has long since surpassed the eight great sects as the number one sect in the Heaven Realm. But now, a young cultivator from the lower realms has bullied us. Many elders have been killed, and the teleportation formation has been destroyed. Yet, all of you are helpless against this. This is simply a great humiliation! "
As he finished speaking, Yuan Chao's tone was already cold, and anger could be seen between his brows.
Although he, the former Pavilion Master, had already abdicated for nearly ten thousand years, his status was still respected and dignified. After being reprimanded, the faces of Wei Xuanji, Yuan Hua, and the others were filled with shame. Just as Yuan Chao had said, the unforeseen events in the past few decades were indeed a great humiliation to the Clear Void Dao Pavilion and the people in charge.
"Since things have come to this, there's no point in saying anymore. Only by killing that Tang Huan will we be able to save some face for our Clear Void Dao Pavilion."
After taking in the expressions of Wei Xuanji and the others, Yuan Chao snorted lightly, "Now, Pavilion Master and Great Elder, stay behind. The rest of the elders can leave first."
"Yes sir!"
The elders immediately responded and retreated.
When their figures disappeared from the entrance of the hall, Yuan Chao's gaze once again fell on Wei Xuanji, "Pavilion Master, is there anything related to Tang Huan?"
"Nope."
Wei Xuanji shook his head with a bitter smile.
If he wanted to deduce Tang Huan's whereabouts from an object, ordinary things would not work. Of course, it did not have to be something that contained Tang Huan's Mind Stigma, but it had to be closely related to Tang Huan.
For example, something that had been tainted with Tang Huan's aura for a long time, and it couldn't be too far away from now.
It was a pity that the Crimson Sky Kingdom's Nine Palace Peak might have such a thing, but the Clear Void Dao Pavilion definitely didn't have it. Furthermore, the Nine Palace Peak had the backing of the second ranked expert on the revered list, so not everyone could go there.
"None?"
Yuan Zhan frowned slightly.
Wei Xuanji and Yuan Hua looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
"Forget it."
Yuan Chao furrowed his brows even more tightly. "Have you prepared the remnant souls of the elders who were killed?"
"It's ready!" "These are the remnant souls of the two elders, Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian. The remnant souls of the three elders, Yang Yi and the other two elders, have been used to condense their fleshly bodies a long time ago. They have yet to take shape, so they cannot be moved."
"Two remnant souls are enough."
Yuan Chao slightly nodded his head, extended his hand and grabbed, and the two balls of Qi fell into his palm, "You guys can leave as well. If I find Tang Huan's whereabouts, this old man will inform you."
"Yes sir!"
Wei Xuanji and Yuan Hua hurriedly bowed and retreated.
After watching the two figures disappear from the entrance of the hall, a cold glint flashed in Yuan Chao's eyes. A green light immediately appeared in front of him. This was his Celestial World Fragment. After a split-second, Yuan Chao's body moved slightly, he had already entered the space, and sat down cross-legged on the huge boulder at the peak of the mountain.
"Boom —"
In between mind instructs (in a second), the entire space seemed to tremble, and a terrifying Heavenly Energy quickly appeared, covering the two residual souls in Yuan Chao's palm.
Yuan Chao calmed his mind and focused all his attention on his palm.
Wisps of green aura rose from Yuan Chao's fingers and slowly merged with the two remnant souls. As time passed, the two residual souls actually began to fluctuate slightly, but the amplitude was getting larger and larger. After a long while, the two residual souls actually began to violently distort and change.
Unknowingly, the residual soul had condensed into two faint phantoms. It was Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian.
The two of them closed their eyes and remained motionless, as if they had fallen into a deep sleep.
Yuan Chao squinted his eyes, his gaze cold and stern. His ten fingers danced quickly, and the increasingly dense green aura continuously fused into the two residual soul phantoms. After an unknown period of time, the two phantoms seemed to be infected by the green aura, and a layer of green aura actually appeared between their bodies.
Yuan Chao's hands did not stop moving, and the green aura became denser and denser.
After a long while, Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian seemed to have woken up from a long slumber. The two residual soul phantoms suddenly opened their eyes, but their eyes were blank and empty.
Yuan Chao's ten fingers immediately stopped, and with a slight movement of his palms, the two residual soul phantoms each turned into a green stream of light, entering his palms and disappearing without a trace.
However, in the depths of Yuan Chao's soul, the phantoms of Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian appeared once again.
Yuan Chao had actually completely absorbed their residual souls into her own soul. The purpose of his action was very simple, and that was to absorb the memories of Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian's moment before their souls dissipated.
The death of the main body's soul, and the residual soul that was sealed within the sect, meant that it had become the new main body's soul. The moment the main body's soul was replaced with the old, a small portion of its memories would inevitably be transferred over and preserved. Through that portion of memories, one would be able to obtain a lot of information.
Of course, once the deduction was complete, Gong Tianxun and Du Sixian's residual souls would completely disappear into thin air, with no hope of revival.
Although he knew that this would be the outcome, Yuan Chao did not hesitate in the slightest. In his opinion, exchanging two Celestial Emperor's residual souls for Tang Huan's whereabouts was completely worth it. Moreover, not to mention two residual souls, even if it was five or ten, he wouldn't hesitate at all.
To Yuan Chao, getting rid of Tang Huan, this great enemy of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion, was far more important than a few residual souls of the Heavenly Emperor, who did not know when they would be able to return to their peak state.
Time flowed like water. Within the Great Assembly Hall, Yuan Chao remained unmoving.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed.
Outside the hall, Wei Xuanji and Yuan Hua had also been quietly guarding for seven days.
Yuan Chao was their last hope. Yuan Chao's strength was not as good as the supreme elder who was ranked first on the revered list, but his attainments in the art of deduction was still above that of the elder in the sky. If even he was powerless, then it would be even more impossible for the Clear Void Dao Pavilion to find Tang Huan through such methods.
