Chapter 1807 Request for Instructions
The tribal alliance consists of 1,200 tribes.
Each tribe would send an elder to reside permanently at the headquarters of the tribal alliance to facilitate the transmission of messages between the various tribes.
At this moment, the more than one thousand tribal elders were arguing loudly.
The reason for the argument was, of course, that the hunters from various tribes had been robbed by a pair of fierce bandits.
In the past, every time the Imperial Road opened, it wasn't uncommon for members of their tribal alliance to be robbed, but these incidents were always small-scale.
Such an incident, where over three hundred tribal hunting teams were robbed by the same two people, is simply unheard of and unprecedented!
"There's a problem. This year's Imperial Road competition definitely has a big problem!"
"I now seriously suspect that there is a problem with the teleportation array of the myriad worlds, and that there is a flaw in the first level, allowing someone who has surpassed the Great Emperor realm to slip in!"
"Impossible. The teleportation array that connects all the worlds to the Emperor's Road was personally crafted by the Desolate Heavenly Venerable. It's impossible for it to have any problems."
"Furthermore, the formation will also screen candidates in the first round of selection. If anyone who has surpassed the Great Emperor realm dares to take advantage of the situation, the formation in the first round will directly eliminate them!"
"Hmph, but if these two bandits aren't quasi-supreme beings who have surpassed the Great Emperor realm, how can they ignore the destructive power of the World Tree's arrows? How do you explain that?"
"That's right. Throughout history, every Imperial Road has produced many outstanding individuals, each with the potential to become a supreme being. However, there has never been a case where hunters sent by our tribal alliance were robbed on a large scale!"
"Currently, the number of hunter teams that have been robbed has reached three hundred, and this number continues to increase over time. In my opinion, this pair of ruthless bandits are quasi-supreme beings, and not just any ordinary quasi-supreme beings, but most likely at the Great Perfection of the Quasi-Supreme realm!"
A group of savage elders dressed in animal skins were arguing incessantly.
Just then, a man walked in through the doorway, knelt on one knee, and said, "Reporting to the elders of all the tribes, the hunting party of the Forest Wilderness Tribe has returned..."
After he finished speaking, a group of young men dressed in animal skins walked away, their faces ashen and their expressions grim.
As they set off, they were all full of fighting spirit, heads held high, like roosters that had won a great victory.
They all set lofty goals, aiming to either capture hundreds of outsiders as prey or find thousands of spider lilies, compete for the top spot, and bring glory to the tribe.
But when they came back, they were all soaked to the bone, covered in dirt, trembling with fear, their heads hanging low, looking ashamed to be seen.
Furthermore, each of them had bald hands and backs.
The bow and arrows made from the materials of the World Tree were all seized by Chen Xuan as spoils of war.
The reason Chen Xuan took their bows and arrows was quite simple. Firstly, they were made from branches of a World Tree that had grown from another World Tree seed, and he intended to study them.
On the other hand, they were afraid that these people would run into Qing Susu and her group, who were hiding in the shallow water.
These people, armed with bows and arrows, posed a significant threat to Qing Susu and her companions.
However, once they lose their bows and arrows, Qing Susu and her group will easily defeat this group.
Therefore, Chen Xuan snatched everything he saw, including their spider lilies and bows and arrows.
It was precisely because they no longer had bows and arrows that these people knew they would be no match for any other outsiders they encountered.
That's why they all came back one by one to complain.
"Hmph, another hunting party from a tribe has been driven back in disgrace!"
Gentlemen, do you still dare to say that the pair of ruthless bandits weren't near-Supreme powerhouses?
"In my opinion, we should immediately consult the twelve Grand Leaders and have them personally inspect this year's Imperial Path to see if there has been any mishap. If a Quasi-Supreme has indeed infiltrated, this person must be severely punished!"
The "Great Leader" they were referring to was naturally the twelve supreme powerhouses who controlled the entire tribal alliance!
"Hmph, you make it sound so easy. Do you think we can just see the chieftains whenever we want?"
"I didn't say I wanted to see the Grand Chief. What I meant was, I wanted to ask the Grand Chief for instructions. This year's Imperial Road is clearly too abnormal!"
Just as they were talking, another pair of hunters from the tribe walked in, their faces ashen.
They all lowered their heads, looking extremely ashamed.
Clearly, being defeated so humiliatingly not only made them lose face, but also made them feel ashamed of bringing shame upon their tribe.
Of course, they didn't know that before them, about three hundred tribes had already been driven back.
If I knew, I definitely wouldn't feel so bad.
"We must consult the Chief! This matter requires the Chief's approval!"
Finally, one of the elders could no longer sit still and slammed his fist on the table.
"We have jointly submitted this petition; this matter must be resolved!"
"This pair of ruthless bandits, a man and a woman, must be severely punished!"
Clearly, Chen Xuan and Dugu Rou's actions had thoroughly angered the elders of the tribal alliance.
Of course, the two culprits were unaware of this.
Even if they knew, neither of them cared at all.
After all, neither of them violated the rules of the Imperial Road.
Firstly, neither of them were quasi-supreme beings, and secondly, the rules of the Emperor's Road did not stipulate that they could not rob the savages of the tribal alliance.
They were still grabbing as they walked.
"Chen Xuan, look what that is!"
Suddenly, Dugu Rou pointed ahead.
In the distance, deep underground, there was a bright red patch.
At first glance, she is incredibly alluring.
It was a sea of red flowers.
There are lots of spider lilies inside!
"These are spider lilies. It is said that a large number of spider lilies will grow around the spring. The fact that there are so many spider lilies here means that we have arrived at the spring!"
Dugu Rou spoke excitedly, her eyes darting left and right, trying to find the location of the spring. She even ignored the sea of red spider lilies in front of her, too lazy to take another look.
After all, it is said that the spring of the underworld can reflect a person's past life, present life, and even future life!
She wanted to see what she was in her past and future lives!
Unfortunately, after looking around, I didn't find anything.
"Strange, where exactly is the spring? Why can't we see anything? Is the legend just a myth?"
Dugu Rou spoke with a displeased expression.
"No rush. Now that we've seen a sea of red spider lilies, we're sure we can find the spring. Let's collect these red spider lilies first."
Chen Xuan chuckled and spoke.
