Xuantian Dragon Zun

In the main holy city, the Immortal Palace is completely enveloped by a huge protective circle!

Compared to the tense atmosphere between the two sides, Du Long was casually observing the surrounding environment, his consciousness falling on the towers in the eight corners of the Immortal Palace.

Each of the eight towers is guarded by a golden-armored god-emperor, including the old general Zhennan who originally introduced him to join the Elder Council of the Main Holy City. The eight golden-armored god-emperors are continuously injecting energy into the formations in the towers.

‘Eight golden-armored God Emperors are actually needed to maintain the operation of the protective circle? ! Could it be that. . . Is the protective circle here newly established? ! ’

Du Long immediately had a guess in his mind. Under normal circumstances, the guardian array did not require dedicated personnel to maintain it, unless it was due to problems such as defects in the guardian array.

"Hongwu!" The elder's slightly older but still sonorous voice sounded again, which also interrupted Du Long's thoughts: "If Lord Lei City hadn't ascended to the God Realm, how could you have the courage to run wild in the Holy City? ! Where do you have the nerve to say that we are cowards?!"

"Haha!" Faced with the Grand Elder's refutation, Duijiao Hongwu replied with a smile without changing his expression: "So the Grand Elder also knows that Lei Xiaolong has ascended to the God Realm?! In this case, why do you continue to do this? Where’s the pointless resistance?!”

"Hmph!" The great elder snorted coldly with a sullen face: "Even if Lord Lei City has ascended to the God Realm, how dare you and others dare to tell us to give up our resistance?!"

"If that's not the case..." Hong Wu said with a joking smile: "Then I dare to ask the Grand Elder, why do you want to activate the Immortal Palace Protection Formation? Why don't you dare to come out and fight us head-on?!"

"Don't worry!" The great senator responded coldly: "I will give you a chance to fight head-on! But I'm afraid I have to trouble you to wait outside for a while before the war begins!"

After saying these words, the Grand Elder immediately sent a message secretly, asking all the powerful emperors except the God Emperor who was on duty to go to the meeting hall immediately.

Including Du Long and other elders, there were dozens of first- to third-level golden-armored God Emperors who rushed to the meeting hall and directly left Hong Wu and other invading enemies outside.

Outside the Immortal Palace, Hong Wu and the people around him looked at each other, and then he said with a smile: "As expected by the city lord, this great senator will not dare to go to war if he has more than enough to defend himself. In this case, let's act according to the original plan. !”

"Chengdu Hong is wise!"

A group of emperor-level warriors moved one after another and began to fly towards various parts of the main holy city, while Hongwu continued to stay outside the gate of the Immortal Palace with more than a dozen high-level god emperors, including Olin. over the square.

"Linda!" After watching the other low-level God-Emperors leave, Hongwu looked at Olin beside him with a smile and said, "The guy who was standing next to the Great Senator just now was a bit unfamiliar, that's you. Enemy?!"

"Yes!" Olin immediately nodded and said bitterly: "Although that kid has only reached the fifth level peak, he has enough strength to compete with me, especially since he has an eternal magic weapon in his hand that can restrain me!"

"Eternal Divine Weapon!" A flash of light flashed in Hong Wu's eyes: "In that case, then after the war begins, I will personally deal with this guy! I will definitely fulfill my promise to you and capture the origin of this guy's soul alive. I’ll handle it for you!”

"Thank you City Lord Hong!" Olin said with a feigned excitement and bowed her hands: "Linda will definitely be Lord City Lord's most loyal subordinate!"

"Hehe!" Hong Wu chuckled meaningfully: "Are you just the most loyal subordinate?! I hope that one day... we can no longer differentiate between you and me. That would be perfect!"

"Giggle!" Olin gave a sweet laugh and looked at Hong Wu with a slightly provocative expression: "Whether we can distinguish between you and me... then it depends on the performance of the city lord!"

From the bottom of her heart, the daughter of the Lord of the Soul Palace looked down on Hong Wu, who had six-star peak combat power, but the current situation forced her to be coy and respond to Hong Wu's hints with such an ambiguous attitude.

In the Immortal Palace, in the main meeting hall.

"Everyone, let's talk! Do we choose to take the initiative to fight or do we have other good ways to solve the current troubles?!" As soon as the Grand Elder took his seat, he couldn't wait to ask the many God Emperors in the hall.

"Have our Lord Holy City ever been bullied so hard that we didn't dare to fight?!" A third-level golden-armored God Emperor immediately shouted with indignation: "Of course we have to fight those bastards who don't know how to live or die!"

The speech of the Golden Armored God Emperor was immediately echoed by several low-level Golden Armored God Emperors. On the contrary, the relatively powerful members of the Council of Elders were all silent and no one supported the Golden Armored God Emperor.

Gradually, the golden-armored God Emperors also reacted, and the entire meeting hall gradually became quiet.

"Although God Emperor Lu Gang's words are relatively simple and direct, they also have a certain truth, but..." The two elders finally broke the silence: "Because the Lord of Thunder City has ascended to the divine world, we no longer occupy the top combat power. Advantage, if we really want to fight with the opponent...I am afraid that even if we win by chance, it will definitely end in a lose-lose situation for both parties!"

"That's right!" The great elder then nodded in agreement: "The reason why I didn't get too hot-headed and went to war directly was because I wanted to discuss it with you to see if I could find someone who could get those people to quit at the minimum cost. The way to master the Holy City!"

"How is this possible?!" The God Emperor named Lu Gang immediately shook his head and said: "There is not much difference in strength between the enemy and us. They have been coveting the Lord's Holy City for many years, and there is no way they can easily retreat!"

"..."

There began to be heated discussions around this issue in the hall. There was no clue about the solution that the Grand Elder wanted, and no one had any hope for it.

Du Long had been quietly listening to their conversation throughout the whole process, with no intention of interrupting. To be honest, he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Holy City.

"That..." After talking for a long time without getting the result he wanted, the great elder turned his attention to Du Long, who had been silent all this time: "Although little brother Zhou has just joined the main holy city, if you have any good ideas, You can just bring it up, it doesn’t matter whether it’s right or wrong, after all, it’s only in the discussion stage now and there is no immediate solution to the problem!”

"Well!" Now that the great elder took the initiative to ask himself, Du Long nodded slightly and said: "I have a doubt in my heart, why is that man named Hongwu able to gather so many god emperors scattered around the planet, and our Lord Here in the Holy City...can't we win over those god-emperors to join us?!"

Du Long's question made everyone at the scene look at each other in confusion. Finally, the Grand Elder answered his question and said: "The reason is very simple! Although the resources in the main holy city are the most, they are also very limited... It does not support absorbing too many gods. Emperor joins our side!"

"The great elder is right!" The two elders immediately took over the words and said: "While those god-emperors dispersed to various places to harvest other resources, they were still coveting the resources in the main holy city. This is why Hongwu, the lord of Hadi City, The confusion!"

"That's it!" Du Long suddenly understood and said with a faint smile: "If that's the case, then why can't we make some changes... For example, make a promise to the God Emperors who gathered around Hongwu, as long as they are willing to cooperate with If we form an alliance with the Main Holy City, we will be able to enjoy some of the resources in the Main Holy City?!"

"Impossible!" The two elders immediately shook their heads and refused: "How can we give up part of the resources that we don't have enough for those greedy guys?!"

"I didn't say I would give those people immediate benefits!" Du Long shook his head helplessly and continued to explain: "Facing opponents whose strength is almost the same as ours, only by dividing them from within can we solve the current problems at the minimum cost. Dilemma!”

"Internal differentiation?!" The Grand Elder seemed to be quite interested in this proposal: "How can we differentiate from each other?!"

"It's very simple!" Du Long turned to look at the great elder and said: "Everyone here should be familiar with the God-Emperors outside, right?! You should know deep down in your heart who can win over the divisions. As long as you determine the target and spread the divine knowledge secretly, Just use voice to communicate with it!”

In the main hall, everyone was quietly thinking about the feasibility of this method. The suggestion made by Du Long did make some sense, and it would be somewhat effective when implemented.

"That..." Du Long saw that everyone's attitude was a little loose, and then he continued to strike while the iron was hot: "With resources like the Land of Heritage that can be used indefinitely, we can generously allow those people to get more opportunities to enter. , as for resources that are extremely difficult to regenerate, such as the powerful fruit, you should be more stingy and negotiate with the other party!"

"Brother Zhou is right!" The great elder suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Any resources are just foreign objects after all. Compared with the lives of everyone here, no matter how precious they are, they cannot be compared with everyone's life safety, right? !”

"Okay! I agree with Brother Du Long. We should indeed take out certain inheritance places that can be used indefinitely. That won't be a big loss for us!"

"I also agree with this decision!"

"Seconded!"

In the hall, more and more God-Emperors nodded in agreement, and they finally made a decision after some thought.

Then, on this basis, there was a discussion about who should be roped in. Du Long didn't have any say in this issue. After all, he didn't know any outside god-emperors except Olin.

And Olin was his mortal enemy, so there was no way he could come forward to drag that woman into the Holy City. That would only cause a huge trouble for him!

It wasn't until he finally decided who he wanted to win over that Du Long once again raised another question, that is, it was also important to work hard to improve one's own strength while winning over opponents.

After all, relying on external forces does not necessarily mean success. Even if some people are drawn over, it is estimated that the final problem will still be solved through fighting in the end.

"Little brother Zhou! Your suggestion just now has been of great help. Most of us have reached the bottleneck of our respective cultivation bases in terms of improving our respective strengths. I wonder if you have made any progress in the year and a half in the inheritance land?! In a short time, Is there any room for improvement within the time?!" The Grand Elder looked at Du Long with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, Grand Elder!" Du Long responded with a smile: "I have indeed benefited a lot from the place of inheritance, and my strength has also improved a lot, but... I am still far behind in terms of the origin of my soul!"

"Soul origin?!" The great elder raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming to see through Du Long's careful thoughts: "Is it possible that as long as your soul origin can be greatly improved, you can break through and reach the sixth level of the God Emperor?!"

"Yes!" Du Long nodded very firmly: "I have found the direction to break through to the sixth level, but now the soul origin has not been perfected!"

"Um..." The two elders also understood their conversation and immediately added: "Have you ever heard Brother Zhou say before that you defeated that late-sixth-level woman before joining the Elders Association?!"

"That's right!" Du Long nodded solemnly and replied: "If I can break through and reach the sixth level of the God Emperor, I will definitely be able to greatly enhance the strength of the main holy city and make a huge contribution to the main holy city!"

Since he wanted something from someone, he naturally had to let the other person know that he was worthy of investment. Du Long, who had always been relatively low-key, rarely became high-profile in front of these God-Emperors.

"Very good!" The great elder pondered for a moment, then nodded and made a decision: "Every time we improve our strength now, we will increase our chances of winning in the future! Since little brother Zhou is full of confidence in improving our strength, then While others are wooing opponents, continue to enter the inheritance place and take the original soul fruit to improve your strength!"

After saying this, the great elder directly sent an Origin Soul Fruit to Du Long. He spent a long time just for this treasure, so he naturally reached out to accept it without any pretense.

Buzz!

An invisible force directly enveloped him, and without Du Long resisting, he was directly teleported away, reappearing outside the space-time formation gate entering the inheritance land.

Du Long was teleported away. While the group of god-emperors continued to discuss the plan to defend against the enemy in the meeting hall, some people who had friendship with the god-emperors outside also began to secretly send messages to win over the targets they were responsible for.

In the inheritance space, there is a million times acceleration of time.

Du Long soon came to the colorful time and space again, sat cross-legged on the surface of the huge celestial body, and directly swallowed the original soul fruit he had just obtained.

Compared with the hardness of the powerful fruit, the original soul fruit melts upon entrance and quickly turns into the extremely pure power of the soul in his body, quickly strengthening and strengthening the origin of his soul.

As the soul source strengthened and grew, he began to continue to divide the powerful soul source sword into two, so that the number of soul source swords in his body reached the limit that his body could bear.

Even with a million times acceleration of time, this process of splitting the soul's origin into two still takes time, and the situation in the real world outside is also constantly changing.
