16: The unknown side of the sect’s ancestor!

A little less than an hour later!

Everyone had almost finished reporting their respective issues!

Then they all dispersed, leaving only the Nascent Soul Stage Old Ancestor sitting alone in the main seat!

He perked up his ears, and his Divine Thought spread out!

After discovering that the surrounding Peak Masters, Elders, and others had all left, he reverted to his original appearance!

A rascally middle-aged man, with a wine pot hanging from his waist!

His hair was messy, like a chicken's nest!

One hand was holding a chicken leg, and his mouth was devouring it loudly!

One foot was on the stool, a truly slovenly sight!

If anyone were present and saw him like this, they would be greatly astonished!

How could a dignified Nascent Soul Old Ancestor of a Sect have such a demeanor!

It was truly astonishing!

......

At this moment, in a small town by the ancient ruins,

A group of Cultivators gathered together, discussing the latest news!

“Fellow Daoists should have all heard!”

“A few days ago, wasn't there a Loose Cultivator who obtained a Foundation Establishment spiritual item from the ruins!”

“Heavenly Fire Liquid!”

“Fellow Daoists, guess what happened next?”

At this point, the person deliberately kept them in suspense!

Everyone's appetite was whetted, and they urged him to speak quickly!

“Cough cough!”

The person coughed twice, and seeing everyone's curiosity, he no longer kept them in suspense.

He motioned for everyone to come closer and whispered.

“The Loose Cultivator who obtained the Foundation Establishment spiritual item had a Qi Refinement Stage eighth-layer cultivation! He was only half a step away from entering the Qi Refinement Stage ninth-layer!”

“He was less than 40 years old! It's likely that if he were to Foundation Establishment, he would have a very high chance of success!”

“Later, for unknown reasons, the Loose Cultivator's true cultivation, Qi Refinement Stage eighth-layer, was exposed!”

“The next day, it attracted the siege of three Qi Refinement Stage Great Perfection Cultivators!”

“That Loose Cultivator was also tough-lived! In the siege of the three Qi Refinement Stage Great Perfection Cultivators, he fortunately managed to escape!”

“But in the end, he still died! He died at the hands of a Foundation Establishment Stage Loose Cultivator!”

“That Foundation Establishment Stage Loose Cultivator, named Heavenly River Loose Man, is a significant figure in this Fengyu Bazaar!”

“And he himself is a Second-Grade Talisman Master!”

“Speaking of which, that person was truly miserable! The Foundation Establishment spiritual item he got hadn't even warmed up in his hands!”

“Instead, he himself had already grown cold!” (After death, the body stiffens! Naturally, it also becomes cold!)

At this point, the person also sighed endlessly!

At this moment, everyone was also talking animatedly.

Some said that this person brought it upon himself!

Others said that this person was actually quite miserable!

It truly confirmed the saying that treasures have always belonged to the strong!

If you don't have strength comparable to the treasure, then don't try to possess it!

Otherwise, when you die, you won't even know why you died!

Suddenly, a tremendous abnormal sound came from afar!

Causing the ground to tremble!

Everyone immediately craned their necks, looking towards the source of the tremendous abnormal sound!

Cultivators all have excellent eyesight! A Cultivator in the Middle Stage of Qi Refinement can see over a thousand meters with the naked eye alone!

The Cultivators in the city's tavern also poked their heads out of the windows, curiously looking towards the place where the tremendous abnormal sound originated!

In the distance,

A huge fireball suddenly struck from the horizon, instantly landing on the ground!

With a “boom”!

It directly caused the ground to collapse dozens of meters, forming a huge deep pit!

From the deep pit, a slovenly old Daoist slowly crawled out, swaying!

He slowly patted the dirt off his face and cursed loudly.

“Is there no public morality?!”

“This old man just took your flying boat! And paid a few hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stones less!”

“And you threw this old man from tens of thousands of meters high to the ground!”

“And even gave this old man a super Fireball Spell as a bonus!”

“There's no respect for the elderly at all!”

“Hmph!”

After the slovenly old Daoist snorted, he instantly disappeared!

When he reappeared, he was a thousand meters away!

“It's Shrinking the Ground into an Inch!”

Someone in the tavern recognized it and exclaimed.

“What is Shrinking the Ground into an Inch?!”

The several Cultivators below all looked at the person who had just spoken with puzzled expressions!

That person didn't hide anything, he straightened his face and said seriously.

“Shrinking the Ground into an Inch. The so-called Shrinking the Ground into an Inch can only be performed by Cultivators above the Golden Core Stage, at the Nascent Soul Stage!”

“However, some powerful Golden Core Stage Cultivators can also do it!”

“After a Cultivator reaches the Foundation Establishment Stage, they can fly in the air! After reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, they can learn Shrinking the Ground into an Inch!”

“Legend has it that reaching the Void Realm above Soul Transformation! One can even traverse the Void Realm!”

“Between heaven and earth, coming and going freely! Lifespan can even reach tens of thousands of years!”

At this point, that Loose Cultivator couldn't help but show a hint of longing!

If he could reach the Void Realm in the future, then he would be free to come and go between heaven and earth!

Riding a sword on the wind! Roaming freely between heaven and earth!

The world is vast, there is no place one cannot go! Except for forbidden zones!

(Forbidden zones. This includes forbidden zones created by ancient supreme powerhouses to prolong their lives!)

(They will periodically emerge to harvest blood sacrifices from heaven and earth to continue maintaining their existence in the world!)

(It also includes some forbidden places that have formed since ancient times! These are areas that even supreme powerhouses cannot forcibly enter!)

(For example: the Chaotic Void Land! There is no spiritual power here! If a Cultivator gets lost in it!)

(After their own spiritual power dissipates completely! They will dissipate in this world!)

(In ancient times, there was once a Great Emperor who forcibly entered the Chaotic Void Land!)

(The result was not satisfactory; that Great Emperor emerged with a shattered body! Half of his Imperial Weapon in his hand was broken!)

(He claimed to have seen great horror within it and was unwilling to say more! Since then, this place has become one of the Ten Great Forbidden Zones!)

(For countless years, no one has dared to set foot in it! Except for a few Great Emperors, but they all returned defeated in the end!)

“That old man just now is at least a Nascent Soul Stage Old Ancestor-level figure!”

A Loose Cultivator below the tavern exclaimed.

“I always feel like he looks familiar!”

A Loose Cultivator stroked his chin, pondering.

“Oh! I remember!”

That Loose Cultivator slapped his head and said.

“Speak quickly, speak quickly!”

The surrounding Loose Cultivators all urged him impatiently!

That Loose Cultivator had never seen such a scene, and quickly said.

“That Senior just now is the famous Xuan Yin Old Ancestor!”

“His cultivation strength has reached the Nascent Soul Stage Late Stage, and it is said that he can enter Nascent Soul Perfection in less than a hundred years!”

“In the future, he even has hopes of breaking through to the Soul Transformation Realm!”

Someone next to that Loose Cultivator suddenly interjected.

“Xuan Yin Old Ancestor is truly a role model for us Loose Cultivators!”

“I heard that when Xuan Yin Old Ancestor was young! He was a Utility Disciple under a Sect with a Golden Core Stage Cultivator overseeing it!”

“Who knows what Heaven-Defying Opportunity he obtained! In just three or four hundred years!”

“From a small Qi Refining Loose Cultivator, he leaped to become a Nascent Soul Stage Old Ancestor!”

Someone next to him couldn't help but show a hint of envy.

“Xuan Yin Old Ancestor is truly a person of deep fortune!”
