Dou Po: Lord of the Great Thousand

The station of the Far North Line is located in the hinterland of this Qianren Ice Peak in the ice sea.

After more than a thousand years, the Dou Sheng elders who led their clansmen to this place all died without any reason.

Coupled with the rapid weakening of the blood within the clan, the current strength of the entire Far North bloodline is far from being strong.

The strongest ones are naturally the three chief elders.

Among them, Bingshu is the peak senior half-saint, just one step away from the Dou Sheng in retreat, and is already the strongest person in the Far North lineage.

The remaining two elders in charge are weaker than Bingshu. One has just broken through to the level of advanced half-saint, and the other is only at the level of junior half-saint.

However, as the descendants of the Ice Emperor, the strength of the Imperial Clan lies not only in the high-end powerhouses, but also in the mid-range powers such as Douzun and Douzong, which are far superior to other forces.

At least, from Tang Ling's point of view, if it were not for the ancestor Huoyun of the Far North lineage in front of him, the strength of the Burning Flame Valley and the Sound Valley would never be the opponent of the former.

If the three half-saints were placed in Zhongzhou, they would be able to crush many major forces.

While chatting with Bingshu about the situation of the Far North Line, Tang Ling and the two gradually approached the location of the Far North Line.

The station entrance of the Far North Line.

A faint cold air enveloped the world, and the ice sea near the ice was completely devoid of the violence in the Soul Cemetery, and it looked extraordinarily calm, like an ancient well with no ripples on the lake surface.

But in Tang Ling's eyes, the entire Thousand Ren Ice Peak and the void above the nearby ice sea were connected by a faint spiritual light, and they seemed to form an extremely huge spiritual array.

As they approached the formation, a sense of oppression that could not be described in words emanated from the spiritual formation, causing the space to tremble slightly.

However, when this wave of waves touched the bodies of Tang Ling and Bingshu, they regained their composure in an instant, becoming as peaceful and gentle as the spring breeze.

"Clan leader, this is the formation set up by an elder in the clan. For more than a thousand years, our ability to survive is entirely due to this formation."

Bingshu's introduction came to his ears. Tang Ling nodded imperceptibly, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't. From the former's words, he heard the sadness and sadness that could not be concealed.

Unwilling.

Living in this boundless ice sea for more than a thousand years, they may have preserved the blood inheritance of the Ice Tribe, but the sufferings and thoughts of generations of tribesmen, as an "outsider", are really hard to explain...

"The patriarch doesn't need to worry about it."

As if sensing Tang Ling's feelings, Bingshu slowly shook her head and said, "When we came here, we had already prepared for the worst. Now we have only persisted for more than a thousand years, and we are here.

Patriarch, you have even learned the good news that the old patriarch is about to be resurrected, which is already great news."

"Elder Bingshu, please don't call me clan leader." Tang Ling waved his hands with a wry smile and said, "I'm just like you, just a member of the Ice clan. Just call me Tang Ling."

Hearing this, Bingshu turned her head and looked at him deeply, then nodded.

"Then, Tang Ling, let's go in! Because you came suddenly, most of the clan elders are in retreat, and the welcome etiquette is too simple. I hope you won't be offended."

"Elder Yan smiled. You are all Tang Ling's elders. I just got the position of clan leader by chance." Tang Ling shook his head and said, "Speaking of which, before I left, Mr. Bing also told me that if

If I can really find you, I must say thank you. I have suffered so much for preserving the bloodline of our clan over the years!"

After saying this, Tang Ling put his hands together in salute, cupped his fists and bowed deeply to Bingshu.

Seeing Tang Ling salute, Bingshu wanted to avoid it, but she met the former's eyes and after thinking about it, she still stood there and accepted his salute.

"Tang Ling, do you want me to inform the other elders and call them here so you can meet them?"

"No need for the time being..."

Tang Ling declined politely and said: "This time I will stay in the clan for at most one day before I accept the invitation of Senior Bai Xuan and go to the depths of the ice sea to experience it."

"Are you going to the depths of the ice sea?" Bingshu frowned upon hearing this, with a little worry in her tone.

It took a lot of effort to create a clansman with divine bloodline, and the depths of the boundless ice sea were full of countless dangers. How could she let Tang Ling go there with such confidence?

"Don't worry, elder. With the protection of Senior Bai Xuan, there is no need to worry about safety." Knowing what Bingshu was thinking, Tang Ling had no choice but to comfort her.

As for whether Bai Xuan will protect him or not, he has never placed his safety on the other party. His reliance has always been Xuantian Ice Wheel.

To put it bluntly, I just don't want the elder in front of me who is worried about the affairs of the clan to spend too much attention on him.

What is the result...

Naturally, it was as he expected.

After Bingshu heard that Tang Ling was being protected by Bai Xuan during this trip, the worries on her cold face disappeared.

Seeing this, Tang Ling pondered for a moment and asked, "Elder Bingshu, do you know what the clan's next plans are?"

"Plan?" Bingshu was startled when she heard the words, and then she said with a look of surprise on her face, "Tang Ling, are you asking about where the clan members will stay next?"

"That's right!" Tang Ling nodded, "A Fighting Saint Elder and a Half-Saint Heavenly Lord from the Soul Palace died in the Soul Cemetery. The Soul Clan is determined not to give up. I probably know what they want. I want to come.

It won't be long before a stronger and stronger person is bound to come here."

The Soul Clan can have more than a hundred strong Fighting Saints in the later stage. Didn't they rely on the Void Swallowing Flame to devour other Imperial Clan and seize the Dou Emperor bloodline of other clans to replenish themselves to achieve such strength?

Tang Ling could also think clearly about the reasons for the current attack on the Ice Tribe.

Probably because the formation of the blood sacrifice in Zhongzhou has not been completed yet, and the Soul Emperor, as the leader of the clan, has not yet come out of seclusion, and with the existence of Gu Yuan, the peak fighting saint, the Soul clan may not dare to reach out to the Spirit clan yet.

Under this situation, several major imperial clans in Zhongzhou could not move, and they happened to know the location of the Ice Clan who escaped more than a thousand years ago. After knowing that the latter's strength was not very good, they naturally became interested in the Ice Clan.

Tang Ling was also thinking that if there hadn't been a change like him in this life, the Ice Clan's northern lineage would have been completely destroyed in the hands of the Soul Clan.

Looking back on the original trajectory of Dou Qi Continent, there are no longer a few Imperial clans whose strength has declined that the Soul clan has privately destroyed over the years.

Thinking of this, Tang Ling couldn't help but sigh.

Who would have thought that what the Swallowing Spirit Clan had done back then, after being destroyed and divided up by several imperial clans, the Soul Clan would secretly follow the former's path.

"Are you saying that the Soul Clan will send people next..." Bingshu's face darkened slightly after hearing Tang Ling's words.

Because of the rebellion of the Swallowing Spirit Clan, the Ice Clan suffered unimaginable heavy losses. There was not even one fighting saint left in the clan. If it weren’t for the old clan leader, Xuan Bing Sage, who finally relied on the formations left by his ancestor Ice Emperor to protect him, the Ice Clan would not have been able to survive.

The Fire Spirit Uprising less than a thousand years ago.

During the era of the Fire Spirit Uprising, the Ancient Tribe, Soul Tribe and other tribes had quietly risen, gradually replacing the fallen Spirit Swallowing Tribe and Ice Tribe and becoming the most powerful force on the Fighting Qi Continent.

It's not like they haven't heard information about the Soul Clan over the years, but precisely because Bingshu knew it, she felt that the Soul Clan's attack was even more difficult.

"A Fighting Saint dies here, there is no way they will not come. But as long as someone from the Soul Clan comes, with the current strength of the Ice Clan, they will definitely not be their opponent."

Tang Ling nodded affirmatively, changed the subject, and said, "That's why I asked the elder, what are the clan's preparations next?"

"What else can we do... we can only take the risk and advance towards the depths of the ice sea." Bingshu shook her head feebly and said, "I only hope that the desperate situation in the depths of the ice sea can stop the soul clan's arrival."

"Huh? Hasn't the elder thought about leading the tribe back to the mainland?"

Tang Ling was greatly surprised by Bingshu's words. He had already found the Far North lineage, so why did the other party have no intention of leaving here.

Hearing this, Bingshu's cold face was full of helplessness and bitterness: "It's not that I don't want to lead my people back to the mainland, but I simply don't dare to take this risk."

"Why did the elder say this?" Tang Ling couldn't help but be deeply surprised. "The elder doesn't know something. Tang Ling's background..."

Before Tang Ling finished speaking, Bingshu shook her head and interrupted: "Clan leader, Bai Li once told me about the forces behind you. Even leading the tribe back to the mainland, Bai Li once told me

He persuaded me. Even my desire to return to the mainland and the Black Ice Realm was uncontrollably exciting."

"Then, what's the reason?" Tang Ling was puzzled.

After hearing Tang Ling's words, Bingshu was silent for a long time, then finally let out a long sigh and said, "You should know about Ling Mi."

"The elder is talking about the traitor guarding the Soul Cemetery?" Tang Ling raised his eyebrows.

Bingshu nodded: "Yes! The traitor Ling Mi was captured by you, but I have no clue about the other traitors in the clan for so many years. If in this boundless sea of ​​ice, I still have the ice peak under my control.

Okay. But if I return to Dou Qi Continent..."

"Other traitors..."

Tang Ling said subconsciously, and then looked helplessly at Bingshu: "How can the elders be sure that there are other traitors in the clan?"

"Tang Ling, you don't know something. Ling Mi is not that old, just over two hundred years old. But the Soul Palace in Yinhai City was built a thousand years ago!" Bingshu explained.

.

"Thousands of years ago? Are you sure it was built by the Soul Clan because of us?" Tang Ling whispered, and as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he had already reacted.

Soul Palace, a subordinate force of the Soul Clan, although it is already the number one force on the Dou Qi Continent, it has not been established for too long.

Perhaps, it's just a small period of time before the morning of Burning Flame Valley.

Thousands of years ago, it was the time when the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan were competing.

Although the final result was that the Soul Clan won, the Soul Clan also fought against the Xiao Clan and both sides suffered losses. At that time, how could the Soul Clan have the intention and strength to expand its sphere of influence to the Yinhai City in the far north?

After thinking about this, the purpose of the existence of the Soul Palace in Yinhai City is naturally very clear.

The reason why the Soul Palace has not taken action against the Ice Clan for so many years is that, firstly, no news has spread out for a long time since the Ice Clan came to this far north. Secondly, due to the extreme isolation of the Soul Cemetery, the Soul Clan at that time wanted to

It's probably not that easy to pass through the Soul Cemetery.

perhaps……

Tang Ling lowered his head and glanced at the ice peak at his feet, and then at the formation covering the ice peak above. With the existence of this formation, Bingshu and the elders before her not only protected the entire Far North lineage, but also protected the entire Far North lineage.

Let the traitors in the clan never have the possibility of leaving here.

It’s no wonder that the Far North lineage obviously has a large number of strong Douzun warriors, but in the end, the tribesmen sent to the outside world were all ordinary tribesmen below the Douzong level.

However, although this confirmed the existence of a traitor in the clan, Tang Ling absolutely did not want to let the ice peak under his feet continue to advance towards the depths of the boundless ice sea.

Back then, Bai Xuan could break into the chaotic area, so people from the Soul Clan would definitely be able to get there too.

Although Bingshu has been in charge of the Far North line for so many years and has gained a lot of knowledge, she is still limited by her strength and vision. Even if the semi-saint has the word "saint", compared with the real fighting saint, it is still between heaven and earth.

gap.

Those desperate situations that seemed to her to be lifeless may not be considered safe for Dou Sheng, but they already had a glimmer of hope.

Thinking about this, Tang Ling did not hesitate and straightforwardly told Bai Xuan about the situation in the depths of the ice sea. After listening to Tang Ling's story, Bingshu fell into a daze as expected.

She thought that Bai Xuan was only active on the periphery of the depths, but she never thought that Bai Xuan could reach the end of the boundless ice sea.

In this way, even if she can control the ice peak to reach the end of the ice sea, what use will it have?

Seeing this scene, Tang Ling coughed lightly, interrupted the other party's silence, and said: "Elder Bingshu, given the current situation, it is better to lead the clan back to Dou Qi Continent!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he told Bingshu in detail what he knew about the current situation in the Northwest Territory.

Even if the Far North Line returns to Dou Qi Continent, it is impossible to rush directly to Zhongzhou. It will undoubtedly put itself on the lips of the Soul Clan with great fanfare. Whether they live or die depends on when the Soul Clan is ready to take such a bite.

But the Northwest Territory is completely different!

In the past few years, Tang Ling's power has gained sufficient control over the Northwest Territory, especially the area with the Gama Empire as its core.

The number of Ice Tribe people is not large, and is a drop in the bucket compared to the entire Northwest Territory. They enter the Northwest Territory in scattered pieces, and with the existence of ice water anemones, it is almost impossible for anyone to notice.

There are also possible traitors in the clan. As long as you pay attention to those clan members from thousands of years ago, after returning to Dou Qi Continent, sooner or later, the other party will reveal their flaws.
