Chapter 406 The Solution of the Haotian Sect

"However, the dignity of the Haotian Sect cannot be violated!" the Seventh Elder said somewhat indignantly.

"When the Clear Sky Sect was forced to close its mountains by the Spirit Hall, it had already lost all its prestige. Seventh Brother, do you think the Spirit Hall will retaliate against the Clear Sky Sect if we send out Title Douluos to deal with Dugu Bo? Besides, can you guarantee that you won't let Dugu Bo escape when you're besieging him? If you accidentally let Dugu Bo escape, do you think he won't come back to retaliate against the Clear Sky Sect? Do you think those members of the Clear Sky Sect below the Title Douluo level can survive Dugu Bo's deadly poison?"

Hearing the Second Elder's rebuttal, the Seventh Elder immediately deflated. Although he had a fiery temper, he could still distinguish right from wrong. Moreover, what the Second Elder said was true. Dugu Bo's combat strength was at the bottom among those of the same level, but it could be fatal to those with weak strength.

He had met Dugu Bo before. Although he couldn't clearly sense Dugu Bo's strength, the Seventh Elder knew that Dugu Bo was definitely not weak. If Tang Xiao didn't make a move, the remaining five Title Douluos of the Clear Sky Sect would have a hard time killing Dugu Bo unless they could seriously injure him immediately.

Besides, in a one-on-one situation, the Seventh Elder was confident that he could defeat Dugu Bo, but once Dugu Bo was in a hopeless situation, no one knew what kind of counterattack Dugu Bo would launch, and at that time, it was possible that the titled Douluo of the Haotian Sect would lose his life.

"What kind of mess is this? That wretched child Tang Hao is only causing trouble for the Haotian Sect! I really don't know how he raised his child!" the Seventh Elder said with great dissatisfaction.

"Seventh Brother, stop talking! Our most important task right now is to ensure the supply of food and resources within the Haotian Sect. Without food and resources, our Haotian Sect will be finished sooner or later!"

After hearing the Second Elder's reprimand, the Seventh Elder became much more subdued and began to consider how to handle the Haotian Sect's food supply problem. Dugu Bo's poison was as ruthless as ever; without the strength of a Title Douluo, there was no way to get past the poison array. Based on the experiences of the elders and Tang Xiao, they knew that these poisons were highly corrosive. Without protection, even if food was brought in, it would eventually become contaminated with inedible poison. Therefore, if they wanted to transport the food, they naturally had to separate the food from the poison.

Based on the previous experience, it can be deduced that ordinary Title Douluo-level experts can easily enter and exit the poison array using their soul power to isolate themselves. However, if they carry food with them, ordinary Title Douluos simply cannot withstand it. After all, releasing soul power externally does consume some soul power. Creating a protective shield to ensure their own safety is not a problem, and they will still have soul power left over. But if they carry a bag of food, they will need to allocate some soul power, and they may exhaust their soul power halfway through crossing the poison array.

Ordinary Title Douluos cannot deliver food directly to the Clear Sky Sect without external assistance, but Title Douluos above level 95 can do so with their powerful soul power. Tang Xiao is the only one in the Clear Sky Sect whose strength has reached level 96, and he is the only one who meets the requirements. However, relying solely on Tang Xiao to transport food will eventually starve the people of the Clear Sky Sect to death, and Tang Xiao will also die from overwork. Therefore, this approach is highly inadvisable.

After some discussion, the elders of the Haotian Sect and Tang Xiao finally decided on a plan: to use spatial soul tools to transport the food needed by the Haotian Sect. However, there was a big problem: the Haotian Sect did not have many soul tools, and the internal space of each one was pitifully small. After much thought, they finally decided to have Tang Yuehua collect another batch of spatial soul tools for the Haotian Sect.

Unfortunately, there aren't many spatial soul tools on the mainland. Moreover, Miguel had the Spirit Hall and Ice Palace collect most of the soul tools on the mainland in order to research them. It would be extremely difficult for the Clear Sky Sect to buy a spatial soul tool now.
