Chapter 232 The Impact of the Soul Clan's Demise
But the next second, the old doctor's face turned deathly pale.
The newly arrived Battle Saints who had just entered the cultivation chambers were surrounded by a black hole-like suction force, which even distorted the surrounding light, as if they were mini black holes frantically devouring the energy between heaven and earth.
The energy tides between heaven and earth instantly became chaotic.
The liquid battle qi that had been flowing slowly before was now surging towards the incubation chamber like a flood stirred up by an invisible giant hand.
The ground of the Soul Realm began to tremble violently, and the huge cracks left by the previous battle widened again, with magma gushing out from the earth's core and turning into pillars of fire!
Even the sky dimmed under this suction force, as if it were about to be completely sucked into the body of the Dou Sheng.
"not good!"
The old doctor suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking at the scene before him, his voice trembling slightly.
"Having merged into an undeveloped world with abundant energy, even the Soul Realm couldn't withstand millions of eight-star Dou Sheng simultaneously absorbing its energy?"
Yes, how could anyone possibly withstand it?
Throughout the history of the Dou Qi Continent, the number of Eight-Star Dou Shengs who have been born may not even reach 10,000, and each one's advancement requires a massive amount of heaven and earth energy.
But now, there are tens of millions of eight-star Dou Sheng!
With tens of millions of eight-star Dou Sheng appearing in the world at the same time, the energy they absorb alone would be enough to drain the life force of the entire world!
The image of disaster seemed to appear before Yao Lao's eyes.
A few breaths later, the spatial barrier of the Soul Realm will completely collapse under the suction of millions of forces, and the devouring power will spread along the cracks to the Dou Qi Continent.
One day later, the energy of heaven and earth in Zhongzhou, along with the entire Dou Qi Continent, will be completely absorbed.
After that, even the fighting spirit within the bodies of living beings was forcibly extracted. In the end, the entire Dou Qi Continent would be sucked into a desolate wasteland, leaving only tens of millions of newly born eight-star Dou Sheng.
"Pavilion Master Xu" Yao Lao stepped forward anxiously, wanting to ask Xu Qing for help, but was stopped by the other party raising his hand.
"It's alright." Xu Qing's voice remained calm, as if the impending catastrophe was a trivial matter.
Before he finished speaking, a crack suddenly appeared in the void behind Xu Qing. The next moment, streams of vast energy, solidified to the point of being almost liquid, surged out from the crack—the energy was so pure that it contained not a trace of impurity, several times purer than the Dou Di-level energy within the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Palace. When it surged into the Soul Realm, it even produced the faint sound of the universe in motion.
The old man's pupils suddenly contracted, and even his Emperor-level soul was numbed by this energy: "What—what kind of energy is this?!"
As energy surged in, the crumbling spatial barrier of the Soul Realm instantly stabilized, and the widening cracks began to slowly heal; the boiling torrent of battle qi gradually calmed down, and the pillars of magma and fire slowly receded; the suction force on the bodies of those Battle Saints still existed, but it no longer tore at the origin of the Soul Realm, instead greedily absorbing the unfamiliar energy surging in from the void.
As Xu Qing watched the activity inside the incubation chamber gradually stabilize, a faint smile appeared on his lips—why would he be afraid of running out of energy? Behind him was the primordial universe!
Let alone tens of millions of eight-star Dou Sheng, even if the number increased tenfold, or even if all these Dou Sheng were to be promoted to Dou Di, the energy of the Primordial Universe would not be diminished in the slightest. It should be understood that a single wisp of the endless chaotic energy absorbed by the Primordial Universe daily would be enough to crush a Universe Venerable from the Devouring Starry Sky World into dust; this consumption is merely a drop in the ocean.
Xu Qing's gaze swept over the bodies of those Dou Sheng who were quietly absorbing energy, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart—the rules of Devouring Starry Sky and Dou Qi Continent were so different.
In the world of Swallowed Star, the more powerful a being is, the more difficult it is for them to reproduce.
For a powerhouse at the realm lord level, having offspring is already difficult.
Even those who reach the level of immortal gods, possessing lifespans of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of years, have very few direct descendants. If they advance to the level of cosmic venerables, having offspring becomes extremely difficult. Some cosmic venerables may only have one son in their entire lives.
No wonder Venerable Fire Devourer dotes on his son so much.
In this respect, the original universe was very fair.
For example, the Golden Horn Clan can produce one universe-level powerhouse out of every hundred members. This single clan is comparable to the universe venerables and below among the human races.
However, their entire ethnic group only numbers in the hundreds of trillions.
"The stronger the bloodline, the more difficult it is to reproduce; this is a consensus in the world of Swallowing the Stars."
"But this consensus is not only a consensus of the Dou Qi Continent, but also of the entire world."
Xu Qing couldn't help but sigh.
The Dou Qi Continent, and even the vast world within it, are completely different in terms of bloodline power.
The direct descendants of a Dou Di powerhouse are born as Dou Sheng, possessing heaven-defying bloodline power, yet they have no difficulty in giving birth.
The reason why the various ancient races had only a few million or tens of millions of people, and their populations were small, was not because they had difficulty conceiving.
However, each of their ethnic groups controls its own birth rate, and even stipulates that people with the same surname can marry and prohibits marrying outside their own race.
This is because the bloodline of the Dou Di can only bring blessings to generations.
As it is passed down from generation to generation, the bloodline will gradually weaken and dry up.
If they were to reproduce at will like mortals, several generations would be produced in a hundred years, and within ten thousand years, the bloodline of the entire race to the Dou Di would completely wither and degenerate into an ordinary race.
If they intermarry with other ethnic groups, their bloodline will decline even faster.
In the days that followed, with the complete annihilation of the Soul Clan, the entire Dou Qi Continent underwent earth-shattering changes.
First, the branch halls of the Soul Palace, scattered throughout the continent, were destroyed and collapsed one by one.
Starfall Pavilion, in alliance with the Ancient Clan, Flame Clan, and other forces, followed the clues left by the Soul Clan and eliminated these Soul Refining Caves hidden in the shadows one by one.
Those Soul Palace protectors and elders who once struck fear into the hearts of Dou Huang and Dou Zong powerhouses have now all been captured and made slaves to atone for their sins.
But this is only the biggest event on the surface.
What truly shook the ancient races were three momentous events that overturned the established order.
The first thing was the destruction of the Soul Clan.
No one expected that the ancient powerful race, which possessed a half-Emperor Soul Heavenly Emperor and was capable of contending with the ancient races, would be destroyed.
According to rumors, the one who destroyed this race was none other than Yao Chen, the master of the Starfall Pavilion!
This "abandoned citizen" who was once abandoned by the Medicine Clan, this Medicine Venerable who disappeared for many years, has now actually stepped into the realm of half-emperor, and his strength crushes the Soul Emperor!
When the news spread, even the patriarchs of the Flame Clan and the Thunder Clan personally went to the Starfall Pavilion to confirm this seemingly unbelievable story.
The second thing that followed was the resurgence of the Xiao Clan. This ancient race, which had been extinct thousands of years ago, returned to the stage because of the rise of a young Xiao Yan.
This is because Xiao Yan was only eighteen years old when he entered the realm of a half-saint.
Even those with divine bloodlines from ancient races might not be able to reach this level at this age.
If he hadn't perished, he would definitely have reached the level of a nine-star Dou Sheng!
