Chapter 2145 - 2145: Colorful Frog Ancestor

Tang Zhen, hearing this, looked at Qin Chen with some surprise, probably not expecting Qin Chen to be so clever, knowing that the Zen Heart Dragon Palace's arrival in Bahu Forest wasn't just about occupying the Bahu Forest simply.

But then he hesitated a bit.

Qin Chen said, "Commander Tang, if it's inconvenient to tell, just leave it be. No need to worry too much."

Although he wanted to know, he didn't like to force things.

Tang Zhen said, "Actually, it's not top secret. It's okay to tell you. The reason for my hesitation is that I'm afraid that once I tell you, you'll get caught up in it."

Qin Chen said, "Commander Tang, our mere presence in Bahu Forest means we're already involved. Moreover, if we feared danger, we wouldn't have come to Bahu Forest."

He could have chosen to go to a low-level danger zone.

His arrival in Bahu Forest clearly indicated Qin Chen wanted a challenge.

Tang Zhen nodded, "You're right. As far as we know, the Zen Heart Dragon Palace team was sent by Zen Heart Dharma King 'Liuw Sang.'

Liuw Sang!

This name was not unfamiliar to Qin Chen.

Indeed, was he the mastermind behind all of this?

Qin Chen had already speculated so earlier.

Then what is his purpose?

Tang Zhen continued, "We just got the details. Rumor has it that Liuw Sang is after the Dao Heart of the 'Colorful Frog Ancestor' from the Colorful Frog Clan."

"Colorful Frog Ancestor? Dao Heart?"

Qin Chen raised an eyebrow. Could it be the Orange Dao Heart mentioned by Jian Jia beneath Orange Frog Lake?

Tang Zhen said, "The Colorful Frog Ancestor in life was a 'Dao Venerate.' Before it died, it took out its Dao Heart to care for every group of the Colorful Frog Clan."

"It divided its Dao Heart into eight parts, placing each under one of the eight lakes, for the generations of the Colorful Frog Clan to guard."

"Only the highest leader of the Colorful Frog Clan knows about this. Ordinary frogs of the clan don't know."

"This was done so the clan could unite and one day, if a figure like it emerged to lead the entire Colorful Frog Clan, the eight Dao Hearts could be merged."

Qin Chen said, "What happens when the eight Dao Hearts are combined?"

So the Orange Dao Heart he acquired is only one of the eight from the Colorful Frog Ancestor!

Tang Zhen said, "The Colorful Frog Ancestor had comprehended one of the Rare Dao Intents, the 'Slaughter Dao Intent,' in life. If the eight Dao Hearts unite, it could possibly transform one's body into a 'Slaughter Dao Body,' thereby fully comprehending the Slaughter Dao Intent."

Dao Intent has three levels: Ordinary, Rare, and Supreme.

Just by merging the eight Dao Hearts, you can fully comprehend the Slaughter Dao Intent.

What kind of allure is that?

To any powerhouse at the Daoist King level, this holds supreme allure!

Because it's well known, for a Daoist King to break through to the Daoist Lord Realm, it's essential to comprehend a Rare Dao Intent.

Just like how those in the Tribulation Transformation Realm need to exceed Level 7 Martial Intent to comprehend a Dao Intent to advance to Dao King.

This is a threshold.

How many powerful Dao Kings fail to cross it.

But, if someone acquires the Colorful Frog Ancestor's Dao Heart, they could bypass this threshold.

No wonder Liuw Sang went through so much trouble.

He's likely preparing himself for the breakthrough to Daoist Lord?

Of course, even if the breakthrough isn't the goal, just possessing the Slaughter Dao Intent is enough to drive anyone mad.

Moreover, there's a chance to become a 'Slaughter Dao Body,' transforming one's physique into a special one.

Even Qin Chen at this moment feels extremely tempted.

Qin Chen then asked, "What if you obtain only one, what happens then?"

By a stroke of luck, he acquired one of the Dao Hearts.

Tang Zhen said, "By obtaining just one, like the Orange Dao Heart, absorbing it transforms your physical body into an 'Orange Dao Body,' altering your Elemental Power significantly, strengthening your attacks."

"Also, the physical body will be transformed, gaining immense strength."

"But, no matter how strong, it won't surpass the Slaughter Dao Body."

"According to our information, Liuw Sang has already obtained five of the eight Dao Hearts, meaning he is currently a powerhouse with a 'Five Elements Dao Body.'

What Tang Zhen said matched Qin Chen's apparent feeling.

His body now has become an Orange Dao Body!

He didn't tell Tang Zhen about acquiring the Orange Dao Heart because everyone should have their secrets, and there's no need to disclose everything.

However, he was concerned, asking, "Liuw Sang goes through so much hassle to acquire the Colorful Frog Ancestor's Dao Heart, if someone else gets one, wouldn't his efforts be in vain then?"

Tang Zhen said, "No, as long as Liuw Sang can find that person and kill them, he can extract the Dao Heart from their body."

"Likewise, if you have the strength to kill Liuw Sang, you can also extract the remaining Dao Hearts from his body."

"Unless the eight Dao Hearts have already merged, at that time, even if he's killed, it would be useless."

Qin Chen tensed internally.

So, it seems he is in considerable danger now.

Qin Chen said, "So Liuw Sang took all these efforts, sending Zen Heart Dragon Palace disciples into Bahu Forest, just to confuse others, is that it?"

"He actually just wants to gather the eight Dao Hearts to comprehend the Slaughter Dao Intent and form a Slaughter Dao Body."

Tang Zhen nodded, "Yes, and once he successfully gathers them, even if others know about it by then, it would be too late to do anything."

Qin Chen said, "If so, why wouldn't Commander Tang report this to the Qian State Prefecture?"

Tang Zhen shook his head, "The Qian State Prefecture's power is immense, not as simple as you think. If this issue gets out internally, it will certainly provoke chaos."

"After all, who doesn't want to comprehend the Slaughter Dao Intent? From what I know, several ancestors in our Qian State Prefecture are already poised to challenge the Daoist Lord Realm, lacking only the comprehension of a Rare Dao Intent."

"Imagine them getting a hold of this!"

Qin Chen nodded, "Commander Tang is very considerate."

Come that day, those ancestors will surely fight fiercely over the Colorful Frog Ancestor's Dao Heart, maybe even causing casualties.

Tang Zhen said, "Another reason is if once I report it, I'll naturally become a focal point, and who will ensure my safety at that time?"

"I'm not afraid of death; in my years with the Qian State Prefecture, I've slain countless evildoers, facing extreme dangers numerous times."

"I just don't want to die amidst schemes."

He is willing to die in battle, but not in some conspiracy, as such a death seems oppressing to him.

Qin Chen said, "We'll definitely keep this confidential for Commander Tang."

For Tang Zhen to tell them such matters spoke of his trust, and Qin Chen was determined to keep it a secret for him.

Moreover, if they were to disclose this matter, they might end up just like Tang Zhen.

Under the ambitions of power, a person is ultimately small and insignificant, especially when the Qian State Prefecture now dominates the lands of Qian State.
