Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Chapter 667: The Responsibility of Super Powers

Chen Xiaojun suddenly remembered something and asked, "How do you two know these secrets, especially the mysterious high priest? Grandpa, didn't you say that even the ancestor of Chen Ling has never seen him?"

Chen Yu smiled slightly, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, revealing a calm temperament, "These are not very secrets among the top forces, and there are agreements between the major superpowers and the Slaughter City, which naturally includes our Fighting Spirit City that is adjacent to it."

"That high priest is the representative of the City of Slaughter."

"Besides, didn't I mention this to you when we were in Fujimi Secret Realm? Fighting Soul City once inherited some of the legacy of the Church of the God of War, so in its related books, there are detailed records about the City of Slaughter."

Chen Cong took over the conversation. He slowly walked to the map and pointed at the location of Douhun City. "If Douhun City rises to become a superpower, it must shoulder corresponding responsibilities and obligations."

"Coincidentally, the War God Church was destroyed at that time, and the Zhitian Sect also perished. The Fighting Soul City rose up on the ruins of the main city of the War God Church and took its place."

He turned to look at Chen Xiaojun, as if to guide Chen Xiaojun's thinking, "Take a closer look at the location of this Douhun City. Can you see any clues?"

Chen Xiaojun stared at the map with a frown on his face. Douhun City was located to the west of the Sanjiang River Basin, close to the east of the Xingdou Great Forest. The city spanned the Xingdou River, but other than that, he really couldn't see any more information.

He looked up at Chen Yu and Chen Cong, and saw that one of them had his eyes closed and was daydreaming, while the other had his hands behind his back, quietly looking out the window, as if they were both waiting for his answer.

After pondering for a long time, Chen Xiaojun suddenly had an idea in his mind, "Wait, since Second Uncle specially marked the location on the map, then this must be related to the location. Since I can't figure out the mystery of Douhun City itself, I should look for clues from the overall map of the continent."

He thought to himself: "Second Uncle said that Fighting Soul City has become a super power, and it has obligations and responsibilities... Then other super powers should have the same. Uh, the Scarlet Church is an exception, but Wuhun Hall, Fighting Soul City, Plant Guild, Xuanye Pavilion..."

With a start, his heart was in turmoil. He suddenly raised his head and pointed at the map excitedly, "Second Uncle, look at this! This! This!"

"The Spirit Hall and the three super neutral organizations are distributed around the Star Dou Great Forest. The Spirit Hall is in the west, the Plant Guild is in the north, the Xuan Ye Pavilion is in the south, and our Fighting Soul City is in the east. Is this to guard against the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Cong and Chen Yu smiled at each other, with deep relief in their eyes.

Chen Cong laughed and handed him a bottle of watermelon juice. "Come, have a sip, Xiaojun, you are really smart."

“Although no one can tell where the largest number of soul beasts are on the continent, when it comes to high-end soul beasts, especially the 80,000-year-old Saint King-level and 100,000-year-old Emperor-level ones, the Xingdou Great Forest is undoubtedly second to none. This place deserves the title of the continent’s number one soul beast gathering place.”

He waved his hand as he spoke, "Therefore, humans and the soul master world are deeply afraid of it."

"Historically, the four major churches - the Angel Church, the Plant Church, the Dark Night Church, and the God of War Church - were like four guardians, guarding the perimeter of the Star Forest."

"The overall area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest is an irregular heart shape, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. So in the northeast and northwest, there are the Moon Palace and the Sun Temple standing tall, guarding this place of disaster together."

Chen Cong's tone gradually became heavy, "However, the changes in the four major churches are closely related to the super beast tide in the Xingdou Great Forest."

"Several large-scale beast waves led to the reorganization of the three major churches of angels, plants, and dark night, and the destruction of the Church of the God of War."

He paused, as if recalling that heavy history, "More than a thousand years ago, that super beast tide attacked the east, and the War God Church was the first to bear the brunt and suffered heavy losses."

"After the war, Zhitian Sect took advantage of the situation and attacked the Church of the God of War, causing its destruction." Chen Cong's eyes flushed a little when he said this. "Logically, after the Church of the God of War was destroyed, the East that it guarded should have been filled by Zhitian Sect, which is also a super power. However, Zhitian Sect was the murderer who destroyed the Church of the God of War."

"Their behavior of disregarding the interests of humanity and lacking martial ethics has caused great dissatisfaction in the soul master community. Coupled with their usual self-righteous and overbearing style, it has further aroused public anger."

He took a deep breath and continued, "Therefore, our six major families took the opportunity to maneuver and guide the power of the soul master world. We would rather lose the overall combat power of mankind than destroy the Zhitian Sect."

"Because no one wants to be attacked from behind when disaster strikes."

Chen Cong's eyes gradually became firm, "After the establishment of Douhun City, it reached the Jingkang Agreement with the soul master world. Behind this, there is also the shadow of the super beast tide."

Chen Cong stretched out his ruddy finger, pointed to a precise spot on the map, and said in a deep voice: "A centipede will not die even if it is in a stiff body."

"Most of the descendants of the Church of the God of War have now gathered in this war alliance called War City."

He raised his head, his eyes deep, "Although their individual strength cannot be compared with our Fighting Soul City, the Weapon Alliance brings together the strength of the four guilds of Mercenaries, Adventurers, Soul Hunters, and Hunters. The overall strength should not be underestimated, and it is even comparable to a large sect."

Chen Cong sighed softly, "At present, they are mainly guarding the northern section of the Eastern Great Rift Valley in the east, and have formed a situation of mutual assistance with our Fighting Spirit City."

Chen Yu heard this, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. We soul masters, as the strongest in human society, should shoulder the greatest social responsibility."

Chen Cong nodded and said with deep feeling: "Look at the Spirit Hall. Although many forces are dissatisfied with them, they always stand up and take the heaviest responsibility at the critical moment when mankind faces a crisis."

"They fought bravely and suffered countless casualties, which is why they have such a good reputation among the civilians. What they did was far more than just helping people awaken their martial spirits and providing financial subsidies."

Chen Yu added: "Because of this, the overall evaluation of the Spirit Hall on the mainland is positive, especially among the middle and lower level spirit masters and civilians."

"Of course, there are people who are dissatisfied with them, but that is mostly because they are so powerful that sometimes they inevitably behave inappropriately."

Changing the topic, Chen Cong mentioned another place, "Even the City of Slaughter, they once helped us once during the shocking catastrophe 2500 years ago."

Chen Yu also said, "Yes, Xiaojun, you must remember that as soul masters, we must not only cultivate soul power, but also cultivate a correct world view and a brave and upright heart; only in this way can we be invincible in our future lives."

Chen Xiaojun was very excited after hearing this. He knew that although he had a great talent, he still needed to go through countless trials and tests to become a real strong man.

Chen Xiaojun sang passionately: "With a heart as cautious as treading on thin ice, I do things courageously and diligently, like a tiger sniffing a rose!"

Hearing this, Chen Cong couldn't help but burst into laughter and clapped his hands in appreciation.

Chen Yu gently stroked his short beard and nodded with satisfaction, "That's great, that's great!"
