Chapter 244: Heavenly Tomb and Undercover (Third update, please vote)
"Feng...Brother Feng, I'm not sad, I'm just too happy."
Gu Xun'er sniffed, rubbed her pretty face in Xiao Feng's arms, and then complained to Gu Yuan with some dissatisfaction: "Dad, in your eyes, am I not even as good as a piece of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade?"
"Xun'er, don't get me wrong, that's not what Dad meant."
Seeing that his precious daughter seemed to be really angry, Gu Yuan quickly waved his hands and explained: "I was just joking with this kid, who knew that he would actually take out the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade fragment as a betrothal gift?"
"Xun'er, don't blame your father-in-law. I volunteered to use the fragments of Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade as a betrothal gift."
Xiao Feng gently stroked Gu Xun'er's hair and said, "Besides, if I put the fragment of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade in my hands, it will only attract the covetousness of the Soul Clan. It is better to give it to my father-in-law for safekeeping!
Looking at the entire Douqi Continent, only my father-in-law can protect this piece of Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade from Emperor Hun Tian."
Hearing Xiao Feng's eloquence, Gu Yuan couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction and cast a look of gratitude towards him.
At this time, Gu Yuan also understood why his precious daughter was so devoted to Xiao Feng. How many people could resist such flattery?
"Since Brother Feng has said so, I won't blame Dad."
Gu Xun'er said halfway, and then changed the subject: "But Brother Feng gave Dad the fragment of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade. Dad, as an elder, you have to give Brother Feng a gift in return!"
"You little girl~"
Seeing Gu Xun'er's elbows bent outward, Gu Yuan shook his head helplessly, then turned to Xiao Feng and said, "Xun'er, what you said just now is not bad. Tell me! What do you want as a gift?"
Because Gu Yuan has already accepted Xiao Feng as his son-in-law, he now intends to give him benefits.
As long as Xiao Feng didn't ask for too much, even if he just wanted two or three heavenly-level fighting skills, Gu Yuan would be willing to give them to him. Anyway, with the fragments of Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade in hand, even the old stubborn people in the clan would not say much.
"Father-in-law, I really have something to ask of you. I want to enter the Heavenly Tomb."
"Heavenly Tomb?"
Gu Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he frowned and said, "Boy, the Heavenly Tomb will only be opened once every twenty years. Now it has been less than ten years since the last opening of the Heavenly Tomb. Why don't you change your request?"
The Heavenly Tomb is a special space created by an ancient Dou Di powerful person. In this special space, the souls of dead people can survive in the same state as before their death, and the flow of time inside is different from that of the outside world, making it an excellent place for cultivation.
Xiao Feng's original intention of entering the Heavenly Tomb was not to practice, but to subdue the soul living in the Heavenly Tomb.
Under normal circumstances, those souls have no way to leave the Heavenly Tomb.
However, there are exceptions to everything. Xiao Feng can take those soul bodies into the Hueco Mundo to live.
The nature of Hueco Mundo is similar to that of the Heavenly Tomb, and after being transformed into Xiao Feng's affiliated world, it also gained extremely strong growth potential.
For example, when Xiao Feng was still a Dou Zong, the Hueco Mundo could only forcibly suppress the soul body of the Dou Zun level at most.
As Xiao Feng's cultivation broke through to the peak of the second level Dou Zun, the Hueco Mundo was also able to forcibly suppress the soul body of the Semi-Saint level.
There are many powerful souls living in the Sky Tomb. If Xiao Feng can collect them into the Hueco Mundo and then transform them into an army of Arrancar, his overall strength will definitely increase dramatically.
The most important thing is that Xiao Xuan's soul is also in the Heavenly Tomb. If he is willing to move into the virtual circle, Xiao Feng will have an extra trump card to fight against the Dou Sheng strongman. "Father-in-law, I believe you must have heard from Ling Ying that my son-in-law has the ability to randomly predict the future."
Xiao Feng half-truthfully lied, "If I didn't have the ability to predict the future randomly, I wouldn't have been able to find so many opportunities to break through from a four-star Dou Huang to the peak of a second-level Dou Zun in less than a year.
Among the many future scenes that the son-in-law foresaw, one of them showed that my father-in-law forcibly tore open a space passage into the Heavenly Tomb. "
"..."
Gu Yuan's pupils shrank slightly and his expression became serious.
Originally, Gu Yuan was somewhat skeptical about Xiao Feng's ability to predict the future, but he didn't expect that he even knew the secret of how he could forcibly open the Heavenly Tomb.
You have to know that Gu Yuan has never told this kind of thing to anyone else, even Gu Xun'er doesn't know about it.
Therefore, it is impossible for Xiao Feng to know this from other channels, which only shows that he really has the ability to predict the future.
"By the way, my father-in-law, it would be better for you to keep the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade fragment I just gave you yourself."
Xiao Feng said solemnly: "In the future scene I predicted, Elder Guyang of your Ancient Clan is actually an undercover agent planted by the Soul Clan.
When the Soul Clan gathers the other pieces of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, he will secretly send the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade piece that your Ancient Clan has kept back to the Soul Clan. "
"What did you say?!"
When Gu Yuan heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
Gu Yang is the second elder of the Gu clan's ancestral hall and also a veteran strongman in the Gu clan. His cultivation has reached the late stage of the five-star Dou Sheng.
If Gu Yang is really an undercover agent planted by the Soul Clan, then wouldn't all the secrets of the Gu Clan over the years be exposed to the eyes of the Soul Clan?
"Father-in-law, from the future scenes I foresaw, Elder Gu Yang had actually died a hundred years ago. It was only because the Soul Clan's Void Devouring Flame merged his soul with that of the Soul Clan's people that created the illusion that he was still alive."
Xiao Feng said seriously, "Please think carefully, father-in-law. Has Elder Gu Yang been living in seclusion all these years and never shown his face in front of you?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan was slightly stunned. Only then did he realize that he had not seen Elder Gu Yang for a hundred years.
Originally, Gu Yuan thought that Elder Gu Yang was practicing in seclusion, hoping to break through to the six-star Douluo as soon as possible. He did not expect that he did not dare to appear in front of him, fearing that he would discover his flaws.
No wonder the Ancient Clan and the Soul Clan always lose more than they win whenever they fight openly or secretly!
"Father-in-law, please don't be angry. What we need to do now is not to get rid of Gu Yang, but how to use him?"
Looking at Gu Yuan, whose face was as gloomy as water and whose whole body exuded terrifying murderous intent, Xiao Feng quickly spoke to comfort him, "Once an undercover agent is exposed, he will no longer be dangerous. Instead, he will become a weapon for us to deal with the Soul Clan.
As long as we make good use of the ancient sheep and let it pass on the news we want the Soul Clan to know, we can trick the Soul Clan at the critical moment."
