"What kind of deal are you trying to make with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Tribe? Maybe I can help," Han Yu said, seeing Yao Chen's furrowed brow.
"The demonic core of a Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast... We need a rank seven or higher Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast demonic core," Mu Qingluan replied.
"That thing... indeed, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan is the most likely to have it. Few other beast tribes dare to provoke the Scorpion Dragon Clan..." Han Yu shook her head.
After bidding farewell to Han Yu and leaving the Han Yu Eagle Tribe's territory, Yao Chen suddenly asked, "Do you know how to contact the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan?"
"Ah?" Mu Qingluan was startled.
"The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan might also be a channel... Although it might be impolite to trade for the demonic cores of their affiliated tribes, I think they wouldn't mind if the price is sufficient..." Yao Chen expressed his thoughts.
Mu Qingluan hesitated, "This might anger them... Magical beasts value bloodlines far more than humans."
"Bloodlines, huh..." A look of reminiscence appeared on Yao Chen's face, then he shook his head slightly:
"Perhaps, but it's just that. Compared to bloodlines, they might value profit more... It's not uncommon for collateral branches to become sacrifices."
Seeing Yao Chen's insistence, Mu Qingluan didn't dare to go against his wishes. After some thought, she said, "The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan has always been mysterious, and even whether they had affiliated tribes was unknown before, but this war exposed them...
"I know there's a Poison Dragon Clan in the western region of the Beast Domain. They possess a trace of the Taixu Ancient Dragon bloodline and are an affiliated tribe of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan."
So, Yao Chen rushed to the western Beast Domain. The Poison Dragon Clan was not as friendly as the Han Yu Eagles. Two un-transformed Poison Dragons attacked Mu Qingluan and Yao Chen without a word upon seeing them.
It wasn't until Yao Chen revealed his Dou Saint's pressure that he forced the Poison Dragon Clan's chief out of a swamp.
"Human..." The Poison Dragon Clan's chief had not transformed, maintaining his huge Flood Dragon form. His gaze, fixed on Yao Chen, was filled with hatred.
Yao Chen was somewhat puzzled, "Why are you so hostile towards me? I have no ill intentions. Your clansmen attacked me earlier, and I did not harm them.
"Perhaps humans have harmed you or your clan before, but please restrain yourself. One person's actions do not represent everyone."
The Poison Dragon Clan's chief's gaze softened slightly but remained filled with wariness and hostility: "What is your purpose in coming here?"
Yao Chen immediately replied, "I would like to ask you to introduce me to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. I have something to discuss with them."
The Poison Dragon Clan's chief replied, "The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan has long been split. Even this war with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan did not truly make them a whole...
"My clan is affiliated with North Dragon Island... However, you are too late."
"What do you mean?"
"North Dragon Island is gone... All the Higher Void Ancient Dragons have vanished... At least the ones I know don't know where they went... Perhaps you can try other Dragon Islands."
"The Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is also gone?" A trace of surprise appeared on Yao Chen's face.
Mu Qingluan couldn't help but shiver, a chill running from her spine to the top of her head... She suspected that something terrifying was lurking in the Beast Domain, targeting the magical beast tribes...
Her current feeling was like when people from other Dou Emperor remnant clans suddenly found the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan gone.
Mu Qingluan shook the chilling thought from her mind... How could that be?
Yao Chen asked, "Do you have any clues?"
"No..."
Yao Chen left the Poison Dragon Clan and visited many other magical beast families, but he found neither the demonic core of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast nor any news of the two major magical beast tribes.
The Taixu Ancient Dragon and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing simultaneously. The Beast Domain, which had been in a heated conflict due to the two clans, fell into an eerie calm.
Their affiliated tribes also ceased fighting, anxiously searching for where the tribe they had once relied on had gone.
...
In the void where the Demon Phoenix World was originally located, three figures in black robes, with chilling auras and shrouded in black mist, suddenly appeared.
They dispersed, searched the void, and then gathered again.
"Did you find anything?" asked the youth with deep eyes but a strange sense of foolishness.
"I found nothing here," Hun Qiu said calmly, without a ripple in his voice.
Hun Dan, who had a giant sword on his back and a bare, rugged upper body, shook his head.
Although the Soul Clan's main attention was on the human Domain, the magical beast families were also a force not to be underestimated, so they maintained a certain level of attention.
The war between the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan was too significant for them not to notice. Just as they were considering whether to intervene and profit from it, they found that these two clans had mysteriously disappeared right under their noses!
"I do have something here," Hun Zhang said, taking out a feather, a Heavenly Demon Phoenix feather.
Feeling the aura on the feather, Hun Dan and Hun Qiu showed a hint of surprise. They judged that the owner of this feather was likely around a Five Star Dou Saint in strength. Although not as strong as them, he was not to be underestimated.
"The disappearance of these two clans reminds me of the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Tribe before, who also suddenly vanished without a trace... Don't you think this method of disappearance is a bit familiar?" Hun Zhang said with a smile.
"Lord Xu Wu?" Hun Qiu whispered.
As the new generation of the Soul Clan, the three of them had not participated in the destruction of the other Dou Emperor remnant clans in the past, but they had learned some information through exchanges with the older generation.
This method was very similar to the Soul Clan's method of destroying other clans.
"Can the bloodlines between magical beasts also be interconnected?" Hun Dan asked, puzzled. "Could there also be a 'Soul Clan' lurking among the magical beasts?"
"Who knows... Let's go to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan again, and then report back."
...
In the Soul Realm, Soul Emperor looked at the feather brought back by the "Three Sword Saints," his expression not looking good.
He frowned, his eyes gloomy.
Over the past millennium, the Soul Clan had done a lot. Besides licking their wounds and accumulating strength, they also sent spies to various clans to ascertain the location of the ancient jade and the strength of each clan.
Just as the plan was proceeding smoothly and nearing its final stages, unexpected incidents frequently occurred.
First, they discovered that the declining Xiao Clan actually still hid strength. This missing information caused a flaw in their plan, making it difficult to determine the location of one-eighth of the ancient jade, and the hidden power of the Xiao Clan also caused concern.
Now, changes had occurred in the Beast Domain, with the mysterious disappearance of the three major magical beast tribes, and the culprit behind it might be a clan similar to their Soul Clan.
This caused an unspeakable irritation to rise in Soul Emperor, who hated variables.
