Star Trace Gate

The murmur of the last wisp of the soul of the ancestor Su He kept echoing in Ren Ye's ears.

Dragon Hunting Order, Yangtian Pond, the place where dragons are hidden...

Ren stared blankly at the spirit of the Su He ancestor, thinking to himself, "Although the Zhou family experienced the collapse of the migration area and the genocide of Longtian City, all past experiences and heritage have long been lost. Even the surviving elders of the family have never seen the living Su He ancestor, but the various stories circulating within the family are still very reliable, without any exaggeration or embellishment."

Just as Xiao Shuai had said, this ancestor Su He had indeed led the clan's powerful members into Tiandu to search for the dragon, and had indeed found accurate information. However, it was unknown what happened, resulting in the death of all the clan's powerful members, and ultimately only Su He left Tiandu...

Of course, the Little Bad King would not be so narcissistic as to think that the last words of Patriarch Su He were directed at him.

Before coming to Longtian City, Xiao Shuai had clearly stated that the ancestor Su He had gone crazy and lost her mind after returning, so the people in the clan had no idea what she had experienced in Tiandu and could only make various guesses.

In this way, the last words that Patriarch Su He just said should be left to the descendants of the clan.

She had failed to find the dragon, but she still had a persistent desire in her heart. Now that the Soul Gu had left her body and was no longer suppressing her, the little bit of her soul that had been preserved by the formation had regained its clarity. She even hoped that future generations would use the Dragon Seeking Order to find the last true dragon in the world.

However, Ren also had a question in his mind, but he also needed to find an appropriate time to ask the Zhou family.

"Boom, boom!"

Suddenly, two extremely powerful auras appeared outside the coffin hall without any warning, and just blocked the sixth-grade soul-controlling evil spirit that was about to escape.

Ren Ye suddenly turned around and saw Xu Yuan, the head of the Xu family, and Zhou Chengye, the head of the Zhou family, appearing in front of the main hall. However, he didn't recognize them at the moment and simply thought they were elders from the two clans on Longtian Mountain, rushing to help.

"Evil beast, I've been hiding for over five hundred years, and yet I haven't killed you yet?"

Zhou Chengye cursed with a very gloomy expression, raised his hand and activated the power of the magic.

"boom!"

A statue of Bodhisattva rose from behind Zhou Chengye, emitting dazzling universal light.

The shadow of the Bodhisattva was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, with a solemn appearance and a brilliant divine aura. A very blurry ruler was placed across his legs, making him look like a universal god walking out of an ancient temple.

Zhou Chengye clasped his hands together, his hair flying, and said softly, "Bodhisattva of Light—Soul-Fixing Mantra!"

As soon as the words came out, the Bodhisattva picked up the ruler gently and pointed at the air.

"Ong!"

Inside the coffin hall, the universal light was like a rising sun, instantly enveloping the sixth-grade evil spirit and freezing its poisonous insect body in place; it also caused the endless black light it emitted to dissipate instantly!

"Don't kill it, find out why!"

Zhou Chengye made a hand gesture to freeze himself, and quickly reminded Xu Yuan that the Xu family lived there.

On the left side of the palace gate, Xu Yuan raised his right arm expressionlessly and slashed across the air.

"Roar--!"

As the palm wind moved in the air, a lifelike fire unicorn appeared in the air and rushed straight towards the sixth-grade soul Gu to suppress it.

"You want to imprison me?! Dream on...!"

In mid-air, the sixth-grade soul insect, which was shrouded in the universal light, decisively exuded the aura of transformation with its palm-sized body.

It stared at the two patriarchs, Zhou and Xu, with resentment in its eyes, and said in a slightly sad voice, "Dead, dead... Anyway... my former close friends and benefactors... are all buried in these migration ruins... I sense that the time limit for the Fallen Angel to open is approaching... The Eternal Corridor... will reappear on earth sooner or later...!"

"boom!"

The energy of the Dao of Transformation spread out, and the sixth-grade evil spirit actually held the mentality of dying together, burning itself to the utmost, and forcibly awakening a trace of the power of the Dao of Touch, wanting to severely injure the two family heads before dying.

Not far away, Xu Yuan looked at the trapped sixth-grade evil spirit who was still fighting hard, but did not take action immediately. Instead, he turned around and stared at Zhou Chengye.

The aura of the Dao of Transformation had already spread. Zhou Chengye knew that he could not restrain this Soul Gu, so he said decisively: "Kill this evil beast!"

"brush!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan raised his right arm with a very graceful movement, palm facing down, and clenched it suddenly.

"Roar--!"

The Fire Kirin roared, shaking heaven and earth, and instantly entered Xu Yuan's palm.

"Ong!"

A palm shadow with unparalleled strength and overwhelming pressure gathered from mid-air and slammed down.

"puff!"

With one palm strike, endless flames raged, and the sixth-grade evil spirit was imprisoned by the universal light and shattered into countless black spots of light.

A fishy smell spread out and slowly dissipated with the power of transformation.

"call……!"

Ren also let out a long breath, looking at the two family heads in astonishment, thinking to himself, "Fire Qilin?! Needless to say, this person must be an elder of the Xiaoshuai clan. After all, their magic methods have many similarities... However, this handsome, middle-aged man who looks very elegant is actually a warrior heir!?"

He was actually a rough and uncouth man of the Sixth Rank… This was truly rare. After all, the martial arts path focused on tempering the body, constantly breaking through one's own shackles. Advancement was extremely difficult, and those who could reach this stage and touch the Dao through martial arts were extremely rare.

There's no need to say much about the guy next to him. He's the light of the universe, the image of a bodhisattva, and his divine aura is filled with the vast and bright meaning of Taoism - he's most likely a big shot from the light system.

"Whizzing……!"

After the Soul Gu was slapped to death, Xiao Shuai and Zhou Muyun rushed into the Coffin Hall almost at the same time. When they saw Zhou Chengye and Xu Yuan, they each shouted, "Dad, how's Grandma?!"

These two younger generations originally came here with the family elders of the Cave Paradise, but after those elders sensed that the two family heads had already entered the ancestral land and wiped out the sixth-grade evil spirit, they did not enter and only guarded in secret.

Zhou Chengye listened to his daughter's words, looking at the jade coffin with a somewhat sad gaze. Sensing the frail spirit, he replied in a hoarse voice, "... the last wisp of Ancestor Su He's spirit... has dissipated."

As the words fell, the extraordinarily beautiful corpse in the jade coffin began to disintegrate bit by bit in the flickering candlelight, turning into fluorescent star sand that slowly drifted away.

At the same time, the divine soul that had been protected by the formation for five hundred years also disappeared from the world along with the star sand.

The ruthless years can bury everything. Su He's body and soul, without the nourishment of the evil soul-controlling spirit and the protection of the formation, naturally cannot survive here.

Zhou Muyun stared blankly at the star sand floating in the jade coffin, feeling a little uncomfortable, but not too strong.

She and Ancestor Su He are separated by too many generations, so the respect in her heart and the mark of blood connection are far stronger than family affection.

"brush!"

Zhou Chengye slowly raised his arm and filled the entire jade coffin with the powerful power of the star source, causing mist to rise inside the coffin, making it look like a fairy palace.

Although the ancestor's body had disappeared from the world, he did not want everything in the coffin to be peeped or looked down upon by others, so after filling the jade coffin, he remotely controlled the coffin lid to restore it to normal.

When the dust settled in the coffin hall, everyone paid their respects and offered their last respects to Patriarch Su He.

Soon, everyone walked out of the coffin hall silently, closed the stone door, and returned the place to silence.

Zhou Chengye pondered for a moment, then discussed with Xu Yuan, "That sixth-grade beast is still alive, having lived for over five hundred years. This news... should not be spread."

Xu Yuan agreed. "The resettlement area is about to reopen, and this beast's origins are unknown, and who drove it in the past is unknown. Hmm... it's right to keep it quiet."

"Remember, only a few of us know what happened today, so don't spread it out." Zhou Chengye warned the three children.

"Yes."

Ren Ye clasped his fists in greeting, then stepped forward and said to Zhou Chengye with a guilty look on his face, "Uncle Zhou, before I came here, I really didn't realize... that there was a damned bug hidden within the soul of our ancestor Su He. My actions have caused unforeseen changes in the Zhou family's ancestral land, and also caused the ancestor's body and soul to dissipate... It's truly a sin!"

Zhou Chengye looked at him and asked softly, "You are the Little Emperor, right?"

"No, no, I'm just a lucky junior who has received help from many people." Ren is also very humble.

When Xiao Shuai heard this, he immediately curled his lips and said, "Don't say you're lucky. Let's be frank, you're the unlucky one, for sure..."

Ren Ye's forehead was full of black lines, and he glared at the other person.

"As long as that evil creature is around, this day will come sooner or later." Zhou Chengye sighed, "Ancestor Su He was obsessed with it. Over five hundred years have passed, and only today can she be truly laid to rest. You don't have to blame yourself."

"Thank you for your forgiveness, Uncle Xu." Ren also bowed again.

Zhou Chengye nodded slightly and didn't say much, but just looked at him with a slightly surprised look.

Beside him, Xu Yuan's eyes also revealed a hint of surprise, and he asked, "How could you... withstand the attack of a sixth-grade soul insect for so long?!"

"That filthy thing has been going on for too long and has already fallen into decline. Besides... I also have a righteous Yinming doll to help me, so I was lucky enough to deal with it for so long." Ren was extremely low-key.

"Even if that thing has fallen in realm, it's not something an ordinary fourth-grade cultivator can handle." Xu Yuan commented softly, and then took the initiative to invite him, "Little Emperor, let's go to the twelfth floor of Tianfeng together. It just so happens that the old man at home wants to see you!"

"Junior obeys!" Ren agreed readily.

"Ah."

Not long after, the two family heads sealed off the ancestral land, and then restarted the teleportation array, taking Ren Ye, Zhou Muyun, and Xiao Shuai back to the twelfth floor of Tianfeng.

……

The 12th floor of Tianfeng is the tallest building in Longtian City. It has the shape of a sky tower, rising from the ground and reaching into the clouds.

The twelfth floor houses an academy, a market, a scripture-repository, an alchemy pavilion, and a realm pavilion where future generations can practice their divine arts and physical bodies. It can be said that each floor has a special name, and the area of ​​each floor is comparable to that of a magnificent mansion.

These twelve buildings were not built by the Zhou and Xu families. They just gradually improved them during the time when they were in power in Longtian City.

This towering building symbolizes the history of Longtian City and the rise and fall of countless forces.

The twelfth floor, above the sea of ​​clouds.

Ren Ye, who was respected the most, sat in the Yunhai Pavilion, looking at the scorching sun in the sky and the clouds rolling outside the building, and suddenly he felt refreshed.

Across the square table, the heads of the Zhou and Xu families were sitting cross-legged, one was making tea, and the other was looking at Ren Ye with a smile.

In front of Ren Ye, the Dragon Seeking Order was placed on the table, shining brightly, looking very extraordinary.

As soon as he entered the twelfth floor, he immediately handed over the thing, because it was not his, but something passed down from the ancestor of the Zhou family, and he should return it to the owner.

Zhou Chengye withdrew his grin, reached out and picked up the Dragon Seeking Order and asked, "This item... should be a token for sensing the aura of a true dragon. Perhaps with it, we can find the Yangtian Pond in Tiandu."

Ren had already told the two family heads the last words of the ancestor Su He, so Zhou Chengye and Xu Yuan also knew the three sentences uttered by the ancestor.

The pavilion was quiet and no one was around, so the Little Bad King rolled his eyes and asked the question in his mind: "Uncle Zhou, there's something I don't understand."
