Good heavens!
What was the Family Head doing?
A dignified Great Sage Realm expert, the current ruler of the Longevity Imperial Clan, was actually performing such a grand salute to a youth who looked no more than eighteen?
He had even called him "Ancestor"?
The violet-robed old man was one thing, but that young man in azure robes was clearly just a youngster!
Judging by his appearance, he was likely not even twenty, and the aura he emitted was merely at the Transcendent Realm!
What kind of ancestor was this supposed to be?
Yet doubts were doubts. With a single command from Chen Lingfeng, none of the Chen Family disciples present dared hesitate in the slightest.
Everyone bowed in unison, tens of thousands of voices merging into a roaring torrent that rumbled through the skies above Purple Sun Peak.
"Welcome the two Ancestors out of seclusion!"
The sound waves surged skyward, making the mountains tremble.
Only after paying their respects did everyone cautiously raise their heads, their gazes converging upon the figure in azure robes.
Many of the younger female clan members could not help stealing a few more glances, inwardly crying out, Heavens, this Ancestor is far too young, isn't he? And... he's so handsome!
He was clearly only a youth, yet his eyes carried a profound depth that seemed to see through all things. Though the aura he gave off was only at the Transcendent Realm, merely standing there made people feel as though they were gazing up at the vault of heaven.
"Such a young Ancestor... Ancestor Changqing, Changqing..."
Within the crowd, a white-haired old man furrowed his brow and murmured to himself.
He searched through every memory in his mind. Suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply, and he cried out, "Wait... Changqing? Could it... could it be that legend?"
"What legend?"
The younger clan members around him all turned to look.
"That's right! It has to be him! It must be him!"
The old man's voice shook violently as he said excitedly, "The Chen Family ancestral records mention it... A million years ago, there was a Divine Son who swept through his generation without rival, bearing the one-of-a-kind Chaos Body—Evergreen Divine Son!"
The moment those words were spoken.
It was like a massive boulder plunging into a still lake.
"What? Evergreen Divine Son? The one recorded in the clan history who fought a Primordial Remnant with his bare body at eleven, and crushed three thousand prodigies with one palm at thirteen?"
"The one who, at fifteen, slew the holy sons and holy daughters of a hundred races in succession, killing until the prodigies of those hundred races all fell silent?"
At that moment, many people finally recalled the legendary figure recorded in the ancestral records—Evergreen Divine Son.
He was also the Chen Family's sole Divine Son in the past million years.
It was precisely because of Evergreen Divine Son that the Chen Family had never again established the position of Divine Son.
A million years was simply far, far too long, and many had treated it as nothing more than a legend.
Yet today, they had actually met this ancestor from a million years ago!
"Hiss—"
"Then could that earth-shaking phenomenon just now have been caused by this ancestor breaking free from his Divine Source seal?"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves.
More and more clan members came to their senses, and more and more gazes fixed upon the azure-robed figure.
Shock, reverence, wild joy, disbelief...
All manner of emotions spread through the crowd like an incoming tide.
That monstrous Chaos Body genius who had existed only in clan history and legend, that ancient prodigy regarded by generations of ancestors as the Chen Family's greatest genius, truly existed!
And he had chosen to break free from his seal in this era!
Although many ancient monstrous geniuses had already awakened recently due to the emergence of the White Jade Capital.
Seeing an ancestor from a million years ago standing before them with their own eyes still felt utterly unbelievable.
An ancestor from a million years ago!
How many generations separated them?
As the Chen Family members discussed among themselves.
Chen Lingfeng's gaze swept over the surroundings like blazing torches, and he declared with immense authority, "As you can see, this is Ancestor Changqing, the Chen Family's only Divine Son since time immemorial, whose talent none can match!"
"And this one—"
"Is the Chen Family's strongest foundation, our sole Quasi-Emperor Realm expert, Ancestor Haotian!"
"From this day onward, with these two ancestors here, the Chen Family shall once more stand at the summit of the Great Wilderness!"
The instant those words fell!
The entire venue erupted in uproar!
They had already made some guesses about Chen Changqing's identity.
But Chen Haotian, this Quasi-Emperor Realm ancestor, left everyone completely stunned.
A Quasi-Emperor?
The Chen Family actually possessed such a terrifying hidden foundation?
This was simply too unbelievable.
After a brief deathly silence.
Purple Sun Peak suddenly erupted with a thunderous roar like mountains crying out and seas roaring.
"Welcome, Ancestor Haotian! Welcome, Ancestor Changqing!"
This time, all the Chen Family members present bowed in unison. Their voices gathered into a towering torrent that made the mountains hum and soared straight into the clouds of the ninth heaven.
Every face was filled with uncontrollable excitement and fervor. Many elderly Clan Elders trembled all over, tears streaming down their weathered faces.
A Quasi-Emperor!
That was a legendary Quasi-Emperor!
How many Quasi-Emperors existed in the entire Great Desolate Realm?
The Chen Family had secluded itself from the world for a million years, and the outside world had long forgotten the edge of this ancient imperial clan.
But who could have imagined that the Chen Family still concealed such a supreme foundation, powerful enough to look down proudly upon the galaxy!
And Ancestor Changqing—the Chaos Body monster who had swept through his generation without rival a million years ago, the sole Divine Son—was likewise a legendary figure!
How could they not be excited? How could they not be exhilarated?
Faced with everyone's fervor and excitement.
Ancestor Chen Haotian stepped forward, his eyes flashing like lightning as he slowly swept his gaze across all of Purple Sun Peak, passing over those young, excited faces.
A moment later.
A trace of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"Not bad."
His voice was not loud, yet it clearly entered the ears of every person present, carrying the unique majestic bearing of the Quasi-Emperor Realm.
"This generation of the Chen Family has indeed produced some good seedlings."
As soon as he said this, the many young clan members present all revealed excited expressions.
To receive praise directly from a Quasi-Emperor ancestor—what an honor was that?
But immediately afterward, Chen Haotian's tone abruptly shifted.
"You little brats are quite lucky."
He glanced at Chen Changqing.
"Today, the Divine Son broke free from his Divine Source seal. Having gained an insight, he comprehended a supreme Dao technique and has specially appeared in person to expound the Dao for you!"
"Expound the Dao?"
A low commotion immediately rippled through the crowd.
Many young disciples looked at one another, their eyes filled with curiosity and confusion.
Although the records of Ancestor Changqing in the clan history were indeed legendary, that had happened a million years ago.
Now that this ancestor had only just awakened, his cultivation was merely at the Transcendent Realm, even somewhat lower than some of the sequence prodigies present. What sort of insights could he possibly explain?
Though some of the older clan members did not speak, their brows furrowed slightly as well, clearly harboring the same doubts.
Chen Haotian took all these reactions in, but offered no explanation. He merely said blandly, "Next, you must cast aside all distracting thoughts and listen carefully."
"This opportunity concerns whether you can break the rules of this world and attain Longevity!"
Boom—
The moment those words fell, the entire gathering was stunned.
Attain Longevity?
The Divine Son's exposition of the Dao?
