But weren't all those figures already dead in the gray fog?
How many years have passed, and now one of them has actually returned?
At this moment, he felt not joy, but a strange fear. He seriously doubted whether the person in the coffin was truly his ancestor.
Could it be some strange being possessing a corpse and coming here? If so, that would be a disaster!
But just as he was wondering, a broken bone hand had already placed itself on the edge of the stone coffin, and a finger bone broke off and fell to the ground.
"My will is failing me. I will take this finger bone and nurture it at the junction of the secondary meridians for a month. Then I can obtain my lineage..."
His divine thoughts lingered intermittently: "I will regenerate life here; do not disturb me... If I perish a month from now, my finger bone will be the only thing I pass on..."
The bone hand returned to the coffin.
Upon hearing this, the old lion guarding the mountain was truly astonished. He observed carefully and saw that the bone hand had endured countless years of vicissitudes and was almost decaying, yet it did not possess a strong eerie aura.
Moreover, he could sense that the bone definitely belonged to their Nine-Headed Celestial Lion clan.
Can't go wrong.
Moreover, the being inside the coffin had such a clear understanding of the layout of the Nine-Headed Forbidden Mountain, including the location of the "intersection of secondary veins"... which outsiders could not possibly know.
After a moment's thought, he respectfully stepped forward, picked up the finger bone outside the coffin with both hands, sensed it, and instantly felt relieved!
There's no mistake, it must be some distant ancestor!
Immediately, a sense of excitement rose in his heart.
This ancestor was incredibly powerful, capable of conquering the Gray Mist in the past, and now he has returned against all odds. His lineage is absolutely astonishing. If he can truly be reborn against the odds, the Nine-Headed Celestial Lion clan will surely create countless years of glory...
"Shiming obeys. Ancestor, is there anything I can do for you while you recuperate here?"
His attitude instantly became respectful.
He was not a core member of the Nine-Headed Celestial Lion clan and had always been neglected. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been left alone to guard the mountain when all the other clansmen had already fled to avoid disaster.
Now that an ancestor has returned, the opportunity to personally protect him is a real chance!
"A large amount of human blood will suffice... In addition, I will give you the finger bone. You need to nurture it with your own blood essence for a month to obtain the method within... Do not let my method disappear from the world."
His divine sense grew weaker and weaker; clearly, this returning ancestor was truly frail!
Upon hearing this, the old lion guarding the mountain, Shi Ming, was even more excited!
By nourishing him with his essence and blood, he becomes the first successor of this ancestral lineage.
From now on, his status within the clan will surely rise instantly, and he may even become a true giant!
"Ancestor, I have prepared three thousand boys and girls for you!"
He excitedly took out a bone ring from his body and respectfully placed it in front of the stone coffin, saying, "Ancestor, rest assured, Shiming will do his utmost to ensure that the ancestral methods are not tarnished."
The three thousand spiritual children sent by the Taiyi Holy Land, when the time was right, how could it not be that Heaven had ordained them to have this destiny?
After saying this, he respectfully turned and left, closing the door to the cave hall and activating multiple protective formations to prevent the ancestral land from being disturbed.
He couldn't wait and took the finger bone to the point where the secondary meridian intersected.
……
And inside the ancestral cave hall.
The boys and girls who had just been taken out by Shi Ming to be enjoyed all looked at the stone coffin with fear on their faces.
With a loud noise, the coffin lid was pushed open.
"Ghost!"
"Run!"
Several boys and girls tried to escape, but the stone chamber was closed, and they could not escape. As they cried loudly, they saw a young man standing up from the coffin.
"Stop crying, or we'll summon that old lion back."
Li Lan smiled and then stepped out of the coffin.
"You...you're not a ghost."
A little girl looked at him timidly.
"I am not a ghost, I am a human."
Li Lan looked at the children, sighed, and said, "I will take you away from here. Let me put you inside my pagoda first, okay?"
