Overlord: Insect Eater

Chapter 234 The Dilemma of the Twelve Holy Palaces

After leaving the Endless Fire Territory, Tianchong first followed the Wen family's team to the Northern Territory again for free, and then took the teleportation array from the Northern Territory. It took more than a month to return to the Spirit Insect Continent.

During the absence of Tian Chong, the No. 12 Holy Palace, which had been in a state of disunity, slowly gathered into a force due to the arrival of Wan Chong Ancestor and Master and Disciple Su Qingyin.

There was no way. This was the first time for everyone to see a holy son like Tian Chong who had just established the Holy Palace and then disappeared. Moreover, because there was no clear personal position in the Twelve Holy Palaces at that time, so in Tian Chong After leaving, everyone suddenly didn't know what to do.

However, there are only a few hundred people in the Twelve Palaces now, and they are all acquaintances brought from the twelve branches of the Tianmai, so they have no intention of causing trouble, and all of them stay in the Holy Palace to practice.

It is rare to have such a resource-rich place with abundant spiritual power and a wide variety of spiritual insects. All of them nominally belong to their Twelve Sacred Palaces, so everyone takes this opportunity to practice hard and want to improve their strength. , so that he can have a better future for himself after the return of the Holy Son.

However, what everyone did not expect was that after waiting for a year, instead of waiting for the Holy Son from home, two strangers arrived, and they were both ridiculously strong guys.

These two people will command the entire Holy Palace as soon as they arrive, and everyone is naturally unwilling to do so. After all, they have been practicing freely this year, and the resources in the Holy Palace can be used at will. Who wants to have someone in charge of them.

Unfortunately, the opponent was too strong. Even the very young and beautiful woman was strong enough to crush all of them. In addition, the opponent had a token representing the Holy Son in his hand, so everyone had to choose to surrender.

It has to be said that Su Qingyin is still very talented in management. After taking up the position of the chief steward of the Twelve Sacred Palaces, he sorted out everything inside and outside the Sacred Palace in just a few days, and sorted out everything in the Sacred Palace. Resources have also been coordinated and the overall plan is planned. Unless you are a meritorious person, you can only obtain resources according to the level of your contribution to the Holy Palace...

Although it is not easy for the people below to complain secretly, it has to be said that the entire Twelve Holy Palaces are becoming more and more disciplined and more and more like a force.

During the time when Tianchong went to the Ice Spirit Continent and the Endless Fire Territory, Su Qingyin had completely transformed the entire Twelve Holy Palaces, and this ambitious woman was now planning to build a new one for the Twelve Holy Palaces. Raise your own Holy Guard.

The reason why such an idea came up is because Su Qingyin learned not long ago when chatting with Tianqiu, the leader of the No. 12 branch lineage who came to visit, that it turns out that the saint sons of the Spirit Insect Clan, in addition to the ones rewarded by the clan, Except for the area where his own palace is built, the surrounding areas all belong to the sphere of influence of the Holy Son by default, and he needs to pay a huge amount of Supreme Spiritual Liquid to the Holy Palace every year.

This is just like the feudal nobles in Tianchong's previous life, who would have their own food towns to support them in their own fiefdoms.

These areas belong to the "food towns" tacitly granted to the Holy Palace by the clan...

Of course, there is no clear order for this. Whether or not these areas can be taken over as one's own depends entirely on the strength and means of the Holy Son who controls this place.

This can also be regarded as a small test for the new Holy Son from the clan.

You must know that these areas are not small marginal areas like the Flying Salamander Area. There are three major areas around the Yunxiao Mountains. There are some medium-sized branches under the control of these three major areas. Their strength is very strong. Each area has There are several supreme and powerful men on earth, some of whom are even more powerful than the twelve branches of the heavenly veins.

If the Twelve Holy Palaces want to get out of the Yunxiao Mountains, they will inevitably conflict with these three regions, and it will probably not be easy to bring one of them under the Twelve Holy Palaces!
"When will our Holy Son come back? Now he's going to be bullied to death..."

In the palace, Su Qingyin sat lazily on his seat, looking at the empty throne above him, his whole body seemed weak.

No way, she was still actively planning how to conquer the surrounding areas, but who knew that someone under her command came to report that the Jinshi Region located to the east of them was trying to enter the Yunxiao Mountains to collect resources.

This is a big deal!

This kind of behavior that dares to invade the private area of ​​​​the Holy Palace is a serious provocation. If the Holy Palace does not respond, I am afraid that not only will it become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone, but it will also make people feel weak and easy to bully. In the future, There will be more hands reaching out.

But after understanding the strength of Jinshiyu, even Su Qingyin felt deeply powerless and could only wait for Tianchong, the master of the Twelve Sacred Palaces, to come back and make his own decision.

And just when Su Qingyin was complaining in her heart that her unreliable Holy Son hadn't come back yet, a voice suddenly sounded in the empty hall.

"Hey, are you so leisurely? It seems that I have to find something for you to do..."

The sudden gentle male voice made Su Qingyin's body stiffen, and then the sadness on her face was immediately replaced by surprise.

"My Lord Holy Son, you are finally back!"

Seeing the overly excited look of the woman in front of him, Tian Chong was suddenly confused. What happened? How could this person be so enthusiastic?
Is that a bit much?
Su Qingyin didn't see Tian Chong's expression at all, but as if she wanted to pour out all the bitterness in her heart, she poured out everything that had happened in the past two years.

Tian Chong was not interested in how Su Qingyin was rectifying the internal affairs of the Holy Palace. After all, that was why he hired Su Qingyin to be the housekeeper.

But the further he listened, the more Tian Chong frowned.

"Is that so..."

After hearing that someone was actively provoking him, Tian Chong couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Originally, I didn't want to divide any sphere of influence. It was just the Supreme Spiritual Liquid. I thought they wouldn't be able to provide me with much, but I didn't expect these people to dare to go further. So we'll deal with it together."

Su Qingyin was stunned for a moment after hearing what his holy son said in an understatement.

"I said, Lord Holy Son, have you not heard me clearly? The strength of the Golden Stone Territory is not weak. There are at least more than ten powerful people in the Earth Supreme. What can we do to deal with them? With the name of your Holy Son, you can Is it overwhelming? Although it's not impossible, but you can't force people to pay tribute to you every year, right? The Spirit Insect Clan doesn't seem to have this rule..."

It's just a matter of unspoken rules. If the other party doesn't recognize it, it's useless even if you say it openly, because it will only make yourself a laughing matter.

Tianchong smiled softly and said: "It seems that you are very well-informed, so please tell me about the situation in the Golden Stone Domain in detail."

When it came to business, Su Qingyin immediately sat upright.

The Golden Stone Territory, as the name suggests, is a region controlled by two medium-sized branch veins, the Golden Vein and the Stone Vein.

In other words, the two branches were originally the same branch, but they only separated a hundred years ago. After the separation, they were originally ranked as large branches and fell directly to the medium scale.But even so, there are definitely many strong people in the golden veins and stone veins, especially the pulse masters of their two major branch veins. Each of them has the strength of the supreme peak of the lower land, and they also have one of the same realm in their hands. The natal spiritual insect...

"This alone has the peak combat power of four lower-level supremes. Each of these two lines has two lower-level supreme elders, so adding the natal spiritual insects, there are eight more supreme combat powers."

With such a power, before the opening of the Ancient Heavenly Palace, even the seven major forces in the northern realm combined would not be a match, which shows how powerful it is.

"Don't worry, if it's just this little strength, I won't take it to heart."

Tian Chong smiled lightly.

After all, now he is enough to crush even a high-ranking supreme being, let alone a group of low-ranking supreme beings.

It can be seen from the time when the second supreme spirit treasure in the north was that a high-ranking supreme strongman can easily suppress seven or eight lower-ranking supremes. Therefore, even if there is only a difference in realm, the combat effectiveness of the two is worlds apart. Something else.

Of course, Tianchong doesn't think that just two medium-sized branch branches dare to challenge a Holy Son. There must be someone behind this to back them up...

"Whether it's gold veins or stone veins, they are all separated from the earth veins. If there is no people from the earth veins involved behind this, I really don't believe it!"

Tianchong smiled coldly in his heart.

If it was really before he left, there really was nothing he could do at this time. After all, no matter how high his status was, he still needed his fists to be big enough to protect himself.

"It's a pity that I have only been out for two years and I have already broken through to the supreme level. I even have combat power that far exceeds that of the supreme supreme level. No matter what your plots and tricks are, I will defeat them directly with my strength!"

Of course, don’t rush this yet…

"Remember what I promised you before? Now it's time to fulfill my promise."

After hearing what Tian Chong said, Su Qingyin was still a little worried, but she was still a little excited.

Completely awakening the spirit insect bloodline... maybe then I will have the opportunity to set foot on the Earth Supreme!

Awakening the bloodline is not a trivial matter, so if you want to activate it, you still need the permission of the higher-ups in the clan.However, with Tian Chong's current status as the Holy Son, those elders would definitely not deliberately embarrass him, especially now that Tian Chong has broken through to the Earth Supreme...

You know, among the twelve Holy Sons of the Spirit Zerg Tribe today, only the first three are Earth Supremes. The remaining fourth and seventh Holy Sons have been in seclusion for several years to seek breakthroughs, but they have never been able to achieve anything. I don’t know how long it will take for news.

No one could have imagined that the Celestial Insect, who had just become the Holy Son, could come from behind and break through at an unbelievably terrifying speed...

Among the elders in the clan, the tenth elder has the best relationship with Tianchong. After all, the artifact-level palace he has now is a gift from others, and both of them are from the heavenly veins, so they will naturally look after each other.

But when Tian Chong took Su Qingyin to find the tenth elder, the latter was directly frightened by Tian Chong's current cultivation level.

"Are you...really a celestial insect?"

After all, the two of them had only met a few times. Although they remembered their faces, the tenth elder sensed the rich and majestic spiritual energy of the young man opposite him, and for a moment he thought he had recognized the wrong person.

Seeing this, Tian Chong couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Why, are you still afraid of someone pretending to be me?"

After reacting, the tenth elder immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I would rather believe that you are a fake, otherwise, your cultivation speed is really too scary..."

"Haha, it's just some adventures..."

The tenth elder nodded and remained silent for a long time before speaking: "Is it possible that practicing outside can really increase the speed of cultivation so much?"

Tian Chong was stunned for a moment, and instantly felt that the elder was a little dazed.

"Although going out for experience is helpful, it can never be so smooth. What's more, the outside world is also full of dangers. If you don't have enough strength to protect yourself, it's better not to go out hastily."

Although Tianchong does not object to letting the clan members go out, he does not agree with opening up too much. What Tianchong is now worried about is that the top leaders of the clan will overcorrect due to their own reasons, and may even cause some harm to the clan.

The tenth elder nodded and said: "Don't worry, I know this too. It seems that this matter still needs to be discussed by everyone."

Of course, what the ten elders want to do most now is not to do this, but to immediately take Tian Chong to see the clan leader and tell the clan leader about this monster's cultivation speed. From now on, Tian Chong will definitely be regarded as the No. 1 of the Spirit Insect Tribe. We must not allow such an evil talent to have an accident while growing up!
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, Tenth Elder. I'm here to come to you this time and I have something I want the elders to help with..." Tian Chong helplessly stopped the overly excited elder.

"If there is anything else you can do, tell me. If it can be done, I'll do it for you right away. If it can't be done, I'll ask the clan leader to do it for you!"

"This is a clansman with the bloodline of the Spirit Insect Tribe that I met in the outside world. I want her to enter the Bloodline Tianchi to complete her bloodline awakening..."

"This thing is simple, right? This little girl does have the blood aura of our clan. In that case, I, the elder, will ask you to take it, and I will have someone take you to the mountain peak where the Bloodline Tianchi is located. When the time comes, take me Show the elder's order to the guard there, and then he will let you in..."

With that said, he directly called a servant from outside to come in, and then quickly explained a few words and asked him to leave with Su Qingyin...

Before leaving, Su Qingyin looked back at Tian Chong nervously, until the latter gave him a reassuring look before leaving.

The tenth elder who had finished his work did not give Tian Chong a chance to speak again. He directly pulled him and rushed out of his elders' hall, and then quickly rode a flying spirit insect towards the mountain where the clan leader was retreating.
