"this……"

The Black Dragon King was in trouble immediately.

Shen Lang can be said to have said it right.

"Sigh, fellow Daoist Shen has sharp eyes. The resources of the gray world are indeed limited. Although my monster race has searched for various resources in the gray world over the years, the amount of immortal stones I have accumulated is not much, let alone billions of tons, or billions of tons. I can't even get it out."

The Black Dragon King had no choice but to admit it.

Shen Lang said in a deep voice: "Since your clan's resources are not enough to build this heaven-reaching formation, then you can only bring in the soul clan to build the formation together."

The Black Dragon King's face changed several times, and he sighed, "Daoist Shen, our monster race and the soul race are almost inextricably linked. Even if this emperor can agree to this matter, those ten stubborn soul races will not agree."

Shen Lang pondered for a while, and said, "Leave me to persuade the soul race. Fellow Daoist Black Dragon, go and collect the materials for building the formation first."

Although the Black Dragon King was somewhat reluctant to cooperate with the soul clan, but in order to leave the gray world, he could only suppress the unhappiness in his heart and agreed to Shen Lang.

In the next few days, Shen Lang visited the top-ranked tribes of the Soul Clan one by one, and sent an invitation to the "Ten Strong Men of the Soul Clan" as a disciple of Zixiao.

The so-called top ten masters of the soul clan refer to the ten masters of the soul clan at the god source state, who control many resources of the soul clan.

Shen Lang stated in the invitation that he would be on the top of a snow mountain in the territory of the Soul Clan, waiting for the arrival of ten strong men of the Soul Clan, saying that he had important matters to discuss.

On the snow mountain, Shen Lang has already set up a tea feast, waiting for the powerful soul clan to arrive.

It is said that disciple Zixiao was invited, and all the top ten powerhouses of the soul clan were present, wanting to see who this so-called disciple Zixiao was.

It was also the first time for Shen Lang to see a powerhouse at the level of the Celestial Lord of the Soul Race, and he couldn't help but secretly stunned.

The Celestial Soul of the Soul Race, who is as strong as the Divine Origin Realm, does not have a substantial body, but his soul body and primordial spirit bloom with dazzling golden light, and the fluctuations of soul power emitted are so powerful that they can distort space.

These ten soul clan powerhouses probably only have the cultivation base of the early stage of the Shenyuan state, but the strength of the soul is actually only slightly inferior to Shen Lang.

You must know that Shen Lang has absorbed countless primordial spirits through the phagocytic ability of the blood nerves. In addition, he has refined the blood of the ancestral dragon.

These soul clan celestial beings who are only in the early stage of the divine source state, it is really shocking that the primordial spirit can be so powerful.

"Ms. Shen is new here, so I have met fellow soul clan friends first." Shen Langke politely saluted.

All the masters of the Soul Race also cupped their fists in return.

An elder among the top ten masters of the soul clan asked straight to the point: "Friend Shen, you said you are a disciple of Zixiao, who did you learn from? Do you hold any position in Zixiao Palace? Why did you come to the gray world?"

"Shen is not an orthodox disciple of Zixiao, but my master is the Taishang Taoist ancestor of Zixiao Palace, so he can be regarded as half a disciple of Zixiao..."

Shen Lang didn't finish his sentence.

"What, you are the direct disciple of Taishang Daozu?"

The ten strong soul clans were taken aback.

What kind of monk is Taishang Daozu?

That is the eldest disciple of Patriarch Hongjun of Zixiao Palace, and also the messenger of this gray world.

Back then, it was Taishang Daozu who opened the entrance to the Gray Realm, allowing countless souls to enter the Gray Realm for refuge and save their lives.

It can be said that Taishang Daozu is the savior of the entire gray world.

An elder of the soul tribe stood up and said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, the Taishang Taoist ancestor has only one direct disciple named 'Ran Deng Daoist'. Could it be that 'Ran Deng Daoist', fellow Taoist Shen?"

This elder of the soul clan was a monk who survived the disaster in the Hunyuan Era. He was obviously well-informed, and he actually named him Daoist Ran Deng, which surprised Shen Lang.

"That's right, I am the Taoist Ran Deng, and the word 'Ran Deng' is Shen's Taoist name." Seeing that the other party knew the Taoist Ran Deng, Shen Lang simply went down the donkey and pretended to be the Taoist Ran Deng.

The Lantern Ancient Buddha once taught Shen Lang the coffin lantern and the Buddha's relics, so he was considered half of Shen Lang's master.

Although it is disrespectful for the apprentice to pretend to be the master, Shen Lang has no other choice in order to enter Zixiao Palace smoothly.

In fact, with his abilities, he could use force to subdue these strong soul clans, but Shen Lang was unwilling to do so.

Compared with the bullying monster clan, the soul clan is on the side of kindness and justice, at least in Shen Lang's view.
