The Martial Ancestor Descends to the Mortal World, and the Experts Pay Their Respects
"Alright, there's no point in talking now. We don't know what the Martial Ancestor's attitude is towards our Five Great Lineage, so let's not speculate."
However, one should always be wary of others and make necessary preparations. Order all disciples of the sect to prepare for battle with all their might. If the Martial Ancestor really intends to harm our Five Great Lineage, then... it's a fight to the death! Tie Cangliu said fiercely. As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a cold current sweeping through the hall, but no one objected.
The Five Great Lineage control the Tianwu Sect, and all the sect's high-ranking members are Martial Cultivator who are loyal to the Five Great Lineage. Otherwise, no matter how talented they are, they would never be able to reach this position.
It was this extremely strict hierarchical order that ensured the prosperity of the Five Great Lineage, but it also allowed them to leech off the giant of the Qiongqi Realm Martial Dao like bloodsuckers, frantically devouring it and causing the latter to gradually decline.
Northern Wilderness, Rising Sun Plain.
Looking at the scene of divine light soaring into the sky before him, Yang Xuanwu was momentarily stunned, not understanding why this was happening.
Suddenly, Stele Guardian in a gray robe appeared beside him. However, compared to the previous times, this Stele Guardian's attitude was more than ten times more respectful, almost like a servant.
"Greetings, young master!" Stele Guardian.
"Huh? What did you call me?" Yang Xuanwu was taken aback.
The Stele Guardian respectfully replied, "Reporting to the young master, you have passed the test of the Seven Heavenly Steles and become Martial Ancestor's Personal Disciple."
"The seven of us Spiritual Transformation of the Heavenly Stele, essentially created by the Martial Ancestor, therefore we address you as Young Master."
Is that so?
Yang Xuanwu suddenly realized that he had been guessing about the origin of the Stele Guardian, but he did not expect that it was actually the manifestation of the Seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles. No wonder it could wield part of the power of the Heavenly Stele and freely enter and exit the Heavenly Stele Space.
"Then the reason for this divine light soaring into the sky is..." Yang Xuanwu pointed to the vast emptiness in the sky and asked curiously.
The Stele Guardian immediately became fanatical, exclaiming, "This is the Martial Ancestor descending!"
"Martial Ancestor?" Yang Xuanwu's eyes widened in disbelief.
Upon seeing this Stele Guardian explained, "When the Martial Ancestor erected the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele, he set up a restriction. Once someone passes the test of the Seven Heavenly Steles, they can be summoned to the mortal realm through Karma connections to complete their unfinished business!"
"Sixty thousand years! The Martial Ancestor must have reached the pinnacle of enlightenment by now," Yang Xuanwu remarked with a sigh, as he processed the words of the Stele Guardian.
"With Martial Ancestor's talent, becoming Immortals and Gods or a god is nothing more than a piece of cake," the Stele Guardian said matter-of-factly. His expression was as if he wouldn't be surprised by anything Martial Ancestor did, and he revered him like a god.
Yang Xuanwu said no more, his face filled with trepidation and anticipation as he gazed at the sky, waiting for the Martial Ancestor to descend.
As time passed, more and more powerful individuals gathered beneath the vortex in the vast sky.
The Tianwu Sect, the Xuanxin Sect, the Chenke Gate, the Jianyi Sect... the Nine Great Immortal Sects, numerous Demon Forbidden Grounds and monsters, powerful Rogue Cultivators, the powerful figures of the Lu Wu Realm, and the hidden Nine-Phoenix Realm Experts, all awaited beneath the heavens.
Among them, the powerful figures of the Tianwu Sect were the most nervous.
As time went on, some elders even had beads of sweat dripping from their faces, causing the many powerful figures of the Qiongqi Realm who noticed this to ponder deeply.
Some powerful individuals with vivid imaginations paled in disbelief as they stared at the sky, their auras fluctuating violently.
An hour after the divine light soared into the sky, suddenly, a terrifying pressure, as vast as the sky and as boundless as the earth, like the sun hanging high in the sky, descended abruptly.
The many powerful figures suspended in the sky suddenly felt a weight on their shoulders, and their Law Power and Qi and Blood stagnated, as if they were underwater, thousands of miles below the surface of the ocean.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone, a figure of average height and build, dressed in a gray robe and looking quite ordinary, stepped out of the spatial vortex.
The soaring divine light rising from the Heavenly Stele dimmed and disappeared, and the pure Spirit Liquid stored in the Heavenly Stele Space was also largely consumed in order to summon the Martial Ancestor to descend to the mortal realm.
"Qiongqi Realm, we've finally returned!" Martial Ancestor looked around at the familiar world, a touch of emotion appearing in his eyes.
"This, this, this is the Martial Ancestor?" A powerful figure from the Qiongqi Realm pointed a trembling finger at the Martial Ancestor and said.
He came from the Xuanxin Sect, where a portrait of the Martial Ancestor was kept in the sect's Scripture Repository, and he recognized him instantly.
"What, Martial Ancestor?"
"Is this the Martial Ancestor?"
"The Martial Ancestor has actually been alive for 60,000 years."
A commotion erupted throughout the land, but the powerful figures of the Tianwu Sect, having anticipated this, stepped forward and respectfully bowed, saying, "We, the younger disciples, pay our respects to the Martial Ancestor!"
Seeing this, the many powerful figures finally accepted the fact that the Martial Ancestor had descended to the mortal realm, and one by one they hurriedly bowed and paid their respects, "We pay our respects to the Martial Ancestor!"
The roar soared to the heavens, stirring up boundless winds and clouds.
