Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Why haven't our ancestors shown their power yet?

The elders of the First Clan all wore expressions of confusion.

As is customary, all that is needed is to offer up a member of the clan, and the ancestors in the tomb will give revelation, pointing out the direction of the eternal path.

The reason why the major families changed their thinking and chose to cooperate with the Eternal True Realm is related to the revelations from the ancestral tombs of the major families.

"The ancestral graves are located in the original land, which can protect our clan and ensure its long-term prosperity. Many ancestors live forever in the graves and have glimpsed the gate to eternity..."

"By offering the blood of my people, we can receive revelation from our ancestors..."

"This time it didn't work. Could it be because the sacrifice was made from a collateral branch of the bloodline?"

Everyone spoke up, expressing their confusion.

Even the clan leader, First Mountain, frowned slightly and looked at the elder who was passing on his skills, First Mingjue.

The First Master understood the First Mountain's meaning and hurriedly reported it:

"Reporting to the clan leader, these disciples have been practicing the Blood Cleansing Technique for some time now. I have examined them all, and their blood essence has been cleansed and purified; its purity is now almost indistinguishable from that of our clan's blood..."

"Besides, they are a branch of my clan, sharing the same bloodline, so there shouldn't be any problems..."

First Mountain nodded in agreement. The decision to use a collateral branch to offer sacrifices in place of the main branch was made after discussion among the clan leaders.

After all, the number of disciples of the main sect is ultimately limited, and the karma of the entire clan will undergo unpredictable changes.

Sacrificing a side branch is the best option.

Moreover, the effect should be possible according to calculations... Why is the tomb so quiet now?

After a moment's thought, he stepped forward and lit the "immortal incense" on the offering table in front of the ancestral tomb.

The so-called immortal incense is incense that embodies the power of faith and comes from the eternal true realm.

These items were crafted by Dongya and other Eternal Kings using their surplus incense and faith power, and were given to the First Clan as a gift to establish friendly relations and treaties with the Seven Great Clans.

This item was also quite popular with our ancestors.

As the smoke from the incense rose, he immediately bowed deeply and then proclaimed in a loud voice:

"The Great Way is lost, and eternity is elusive; we beseech our ancestors to guide future generations—"

His voice reverberated throughout the valley and even reached inside the tomb.

Many elders were waiting.

After a long while, suddenly, the smoke from the offering table transformed into golden characters. Everyone was startled and quickly looked over. One elder even recited the characters aloud:

"The path to eternity lies solely in battle; through battle, one can comprehend the Dao and thus access the gate to eternity."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room was taken aback.

"To comprehend the Dao through battle, one can see the gate to eternity? Is this the law of eternity?"

"Our race has mastered many aspects of the Way of War, but we have never found any trace of the Gate of Eternity among them..."

"Our clan has been worshipping them for many years, but this is the first time that our ancestors have directly pointed out the path to the Gate of Eternity. There must be a profound meaning behind this!"

All the elders and others were excited.

Even the clan leader, First Mountain, was surprised at this moment, and then overjoyed!

They have served this place for countless years, but after each offering, although some revelation would appear, those revelations were difficult to understand, requiring repeated contemplation and interpretation.

But this time, the insight given was very concise and to the point!

Could it be that their First Race is finally about to find the Gate of Eternity?

However, he also had some doubts. The message that came from the tomb during the last offering was clearly related to the ancestral gods and the Heavenly Emperor of the Eternal True Realm. That was why they chose to cooperate with the Eternal King...

Now it directly points out that the path to eternity requires enlightenment through battle? This seems to contradict the previous revelation...

"How can one attain eternal enlightenment through battle? I humbly request the guidance of my esteemed ancestors!"

Without hesitation, he lit three more sticks of precious incense.

Under the tense gaze of everyone, another line of words emerged from the smoke of the burning incense, ever-changing and mysterious:
