Chapter 574: Serene Spirit Lotus! Legacy Land!
Chapter 574: Serene Spirit Lotus! Legacy Land!
In the Nine Realms, deep within the thick fog.
An Azure Mystic Lotus was rooted in the mist, swaying gently as if dancing with the wind, scattering a clear, deep blue glow.
Around the Azure Mystic Lotus, various gigantic, shadowy forms lurked in the dense fog, their eyes fixed on the swaying Mystic Lotus.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the Mystic Lotus began to bloom more vigorously, and a more brilliant blue light erupted, spreading a fragrant aroma.
"Roar!!!"
"Hisss!!!"
"..."
The fog immediately erupted with growls and roars. The mist churned and surged, and the various gigantic forms broke through the fog, rushing toward the Azure Mystic Lotus.
Just as they were about to touch the Azure Mystic Lotus,
Buzz!!
A clear, bright blue light burst forth from the Mystic Lotus, spreading out in ripples in all directions.
The numerous gigantic forms, upon being swept by the blue light, turned to ashes and vanished without a trace, leaving no disturbance in the surroundings.
The deep fog once again returned to calm, with the aura of the Azure Mystic Lotus growing even more vigorous, causing the surrounding void to distort, as if another realm was manifesting.
But in the next moment,
A withered, large hand suddenly emerged from the void, grabbing the Azure Mystic Lotus and pulling it out of the fog, transforming it into a lotus platform.
"You have yet to Transcend Beyond. You need this lotus platform to enter the ancient realm fragment. Just step on it, and it will move according to your will."
The Ancestral Demon spoke as he casually pushed the lotus platform in front of Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng's eyes flickered, and he took a step forward, stepping onto the lotus platform. Immediately, a cool sensation spread from his feet up to his head.
The experiences of his journey flashed before his eyes, and many cultivation techniques gained new insights and understandings. The subtle imbalances in his body, mind, and soul were gradually corrected.
At this moment, Qin Zheng felt as if he had entered a realm of Dao comprehension. Each thought he had was met with a myriad of responses, his mind becoming incredibly active.
He gained new insights into the [Tian Yuan Shen Jian Dao].
A thread of his consciousness entered the Inner Sea, but he saw no new inscriptions on the Scroll of Merit. He immediately looked up at the Ancestral Demon.
"Serene Spirit Lotus, a divine artifact of the Ling Gu tier. It can aid you in comprehending the Dao and can also block attacks of the Ling Gu tier. It is a treasure that serves both cultivation and defense. I will give it to you."
The Ancestral Demon did not turn around, speaking in a faint voice before continuing forward.
Qin Zheng's expression turned solemn, and he bowed respectfully. "Thank you, Ancestral Demon!"
With this lotus platform, he could integrate his path more quickly and advance to the Ancient Realm faster.
He stepped onto the lotus platform and followed the Ancestral Demon back into the fog. This time, the duration was longer, but the fog gradually thinned.
As the surroundings became clearer, a mountain that seemed both real and illusory appeared before Qin Zheng's eyes. The Ancestral Demon stopped, turning to look at Qin Zheng.
"Enough, I'll give you a choice."
"The ancient realm fragment is a place of contention, filled with many Ancient Realm experts. If a fight breaks out, we won't be able to focus on protecting you. You have yet to Transcend. Entering recklessly would put you at risk of life and death. You must decide for yourself whether to enter."
Qin Zheng did not respond immediately but instead asked, "Ancestral Demon, you came to fetch me. Was it because you sensed the aura of the Chaos Ocean on me, or did another senior entrust you with this task?"
The Ancestral Demon looked at Qin Zheng and then shook his head lightly. "It was the Grand Clarity that sensed you and instructed me to wait for you and bring you into this ancient realm fragment."
"My realm is not as high as His, and I specialize in cultivating the physical body, so I can't clearly see what He intends to do. However, I do understand that this ancient realm fragment is connected to the secrets of the Ancient Race's cultivation, and many powerful beings have entered it."
"Even I cannot guarantee that I will emerge unscathed after stepping into it today, let alone you, who are only at the Beyond stage and have yet to reach the Ling Gu tier."
The Ancestral Demon's voice and tone were calm and composed, but there was no trace of malice or coldness, clearly showing that He was genuinely concerned for Qin Zheng.
However, after the Ancestral Demon finished speaking, Qin Zheng pondered for a moment and responded, "The Grand Clarity Saint is my teacher. His actions must have deep meaning, and I cannot disrupt His plans."
The Ancestral Demon nodded slightly, saying nothing more. He extended a hand and pointed at Qin Zheng, instantly establishing an invisible connection between the lotus platform beneath Qin Zheng's feet and Himself.
Qin Zheng felt a slight sensation, and then the Ancestral Demon turned and took a step toward the green mountains that existed between the realms of illusion and reality, vanishing from sight in an instant.
With a thought, Qin Zheng's lotus platform also shot forward, entering the green mountains that straddled the boundary between illusion and reality.
The next moment.
Whoosh!
The surroundings shifted, and a strong sense of tearing flooded Qin Zheng's senses, making him feel dizzy and nauseous.
Hum!
But at that moment, the lotus platform beneath his feet emitted a cool sensation, dispelling his discomfort. As the distorted and tearing scenery gradually returned to normal, an endless, majestic green mountain came into view, bringing a faint sense of familiarity to his heart.
This was the Ancient Realm where the Heavenly Abyss Clan resided!
Qin Zheng looked around, and his mind recalled some of the scenes he had experienced through Hou Shisan's memories. He had a vague impression of his current location.
This seemed to be the Sun Shooting Ground?
When his gaze fell on the vast training ground at the foot of the mountain, he was certain of his guess.
When he first entered Hou Shisan's memories, he was taught to shoot the sun in the sky, and he had to shoot it down to be considered qualified.
"Let's go. There's nothing of value here. Our target is their Legacy Land."
As these memories surged in his mind, the Ancestral Demon's voice sounded in his ear, pulling him out of his thoughts.
Qin Zheng nodded in response and immediately followed the Ancestral Demon in a certain direction.
The Legacy Land of the Heavenly Abyss Clan
If everything he had seen in Hou Shisan's memories was true, the Legacy Land of the Heavenly Abyss Clan should be the ancestral mausoleum formed by the jigu dao-soldiers of the clan's ancient patriarch.
So, the place they were heading to now was the ancestral mausoleum of the Heavenly Abyss Clan, the location of the jigu dao-soldiers?
The Heavenly Abyss Clan had fallen, and this jigu dao-soldier had not been taken away, still remaining in this Ancient Realm?
Or was the Legacy Land the Ancestral Demon spoke of actually a different place?
Qin Zheng's thoughts raced, and a thread of his consciousness entered the Inner Sea, looking at the Wrapping Cloth suppressed beneath the Scroll of Merit.
Hou Shisan's remnant consciousness was still inside. If he could strike a deal with it, he could learn about all the valuable things in this ancient realm fragment.
However, the Wrapping Cloth showed no signs of movement, possibly because the Scroll of Merit had suppressed it too harshly, causing Hou Shisan's remnant consciousness to fall into a deep slumber.
He could try to see if he could wake it up.
Qin Zheng's eyes flickered slightly. (End of Chapter)
