Ancestral Pagoda
There are many geniuses in the world, and many make rapid progress before overcoming the Three Tribulations.
But in the end, he turned to ashes and vanished from the world during the Three Tribulations, leaving not even his Divine Soul behind.
However, certain Special Fortuity in the world can stabilize the Divine Soul and enhance one's resistance to the Three Tribulations.
Even in the worst-case scenario, one can preserve their Divine Soul amidst the Three Tribulations, leaving a sliver of hope for a comeback.
The Boundless Golden Body of Futu Yun is one such opportunity.
It was something even those at the Sovereign Stage dreamed of.
Moreover, Futu Yun had already cultivated the Heavenly Sovereign Spirit Body, a physique exclusive to Heavenly Sovereign!
Under these conditions, overcoming the Sovereign Lesser Three Trials would have been more than enough.
But what Futu Yun wanted was far more than just an ordinary Sovereign Foundation Establishment.
He planned to use Ancestral Qi to construct Saint-grade Physique, thus refining his Saint-grade Physical Body ahead of schedule.
After overcoming the first of the Three Lesser Tribulations — the Physical Body Tribulation —his physical body will directly reach the Saint Grade- level.
Although Futu Yun now possesses the Heavenly Sovereign Spirit Body...
But if it comes to physical strength, he is definitely no match for those Heavenly Sovereign.
Even if he cultivated a Saint-grade Saint-grade Physical Body ahead of time, a quality that even Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign might not possess,
This doesn't mean he can directly compare to those veteran powerhouses who have already cultivated Saint-grade Physical Body.
It simply means being able to improve one's strength to a higher level based on the existing foundation.
But that's enough for now.
The Ancestral Qi within the Ancestral Pagoda is extremely precious.
Only those who have made great contributions to the clan will be qualified to enter this place to absorb Ancestral Qi.
However, in Futu Yun's view, while Ancestral Qi is indeed precious,
However, if it is left unused, it will only be a waste, so it is better to make the most of it.
Futu Xuan was by nature a stubborn person.
Even someone like Qing Yanjing, who possesses Saint Grade combat power, couldn't make him completely compromise.
At most, we can only make a few concessions.
But faced with Futu Yun's astonishing talent,
He ultimately swallowed his pride and turned a blind eye to the matter.
Moreover, considering Futu Yun's contributions to the clan, it wouldn't matter if he absorbed all the Ancestral Qi here.
As a large amount of Ancestral Qi was poured in, ancient and profound runes began to appear on the surface of Futu Yun's skin.
As these runes covered his entire body, an endless, divine light suddenly erupted.
That heavy aura was like the earth itself, seemingly capable of suppressing all things.
An indescribable pressure spread out, causing even the Void to tremble.
If he hadn't controlled the Ancestral Pagoda and taken it upon himself to use such a precious amount of Ancestral Qi,
It will undoubtedly take him a long time to cultivate his physical body to this level.
Moreover, physical enhancement is secondary; the most important thing is that Futu Yun has completely taken control of the Ancestral Pagoda.
It wasn't just about gaining permission to invoke Ancestral Qi; it was about receiving the Ancestral Pagoda's approval during the process of absorbing Ancestral Qi.
The Ancestral Pagoda was one of the strongest trump cards of the Pagoda Ancient Clan.
It is precisely because of its existence that the Pagoda Ancient Clan has been able to remain among the Five Great Ancient Clans, never allowing other forces to interfere.
Once the Ancestral Pagoda appears, even Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign will be extremely wary.
The last time Qing Yanjing had a dispute with the Grand Elder, the Grand Elder used the Ancestral Pagoda to suppress Qing Yanjing inside.
Originally, only the clan leader and the Grand Elder had control over the Ancestral Pagoda.
The reason why Futu Yun was only the "young clan leader" before was precisely because he had failed to control the Ancestral Pagoda.
The fact that one's cultivation level is still shallow is secondary.
Even though he is only at the Peak Heavenly Reaching Realm, he is now the Demon-Slaying King of the Great Thousand Palace and has successfully taken control of the Ancestral Pagoda.
This means he is now qualified to directly succeed as clan leader.
Each Grand Elder of the Pagoda Ancient Clan would pass away in the Ancestral Pagoda when he sensed his impending death.
Upon passing away, he left his power within the tower, which is why the Ancestral Pagoda is so powerful.
Over time, the lingering consciousness of these ancestors allowed the Ancestral Pagoda to develop a sliver of its own consciousness.
Futu Yun's ability to control the Ancestral Pagoda was not only due to absorbing Ancestral Qi, but also because he gained the recognition of the Ancestral Pagoda itself.
The Ancestral Pagoda was created to protect the Pagoda Ancient Clan, and the consciousness within it naturally hoped that the Pagoda Ancient Clan would grow ever stronger.
Their response to Futu Yun clearly signifies only one thing: acknowledging that Futu Yun is now capable of handling things independently.
More importantly, from now on, the Pagoda Ancient Clan will essentially possess three Saint Grade combatants!
Besides Futu Xuan and Qing Yanjing, the third person is Futu Yun, who controls the Ancestral Pagoda.
Futu Yun never really cared whether his title was Young Clan Chief or Clan Chief.
When he became the junior clan leader Pagoda Ancient Clan did not have a clan leader.
The sole elder in power is also responsible for suppressing Qing Yanjing.
Although he did not hold the title of clan leader, he had long been exercising the power of one.
But after he mastered the Ancestral Pagoda, he truly possessed Saint Grade combat power.
Just like Luo Li in the original work, who controls the Tai Ling Ancient Clan Tai Ling Ancient Diagram Clan.
The Tai Ling Ancient Diagram is the most treasured artifact of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan.
Legend has it that before the Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan pass away, they seal their life's spiritual power into an ancient diagram.
This is what created the terrifying power of the Tai Ling Ancient Diagram, comparable to the Ancestral Pagoda of the Pagoda Ancient Clan.
It is no exaggeration to say that the power of this ancient scroll alone is enough to rival that of a Saint Grade.
The only drawback is that the selection process for the controller of the Tai Ling Ancient Diagram is extremely rigorous.
Over the years, no more than three people within the Tai Ling Ancient Clan have truly been able to control it.
In the original novel, Luo Li, who could control the Tai Ling Ancient Diagram, was only Spirit Grade herself.
With the power of the ancient diagram, even Saint Grade couldn't do anything to her.
Futu Yun is exactly like that today.
Even for the Pagoda Ancient Clan, Saint Grade combat power is of paramount importance.
The Maha Ancient Clan can maintain its position as the leader of the Five Great Ancient Clans is precisely because they have three Saint Grade within their clan.
Moreover, the Pagoda Ancient Clan is currently at its zenith.
Aside from having one less Saint Grade warrior than the Maha Ancient Clan, their overall strength had already far surpassed that of their opponents.
Once Futu Yun takes control of the Ancestral Pagoda, the Pagoda Ancient Clan will be able to truly replace the Maha Ancient Clan as the leader of the Five Great Ancient Clans.
However, Futu Yun was in no hurry to spread this message.
As the saying goes, the taller the tree, the more the wind will blow. He had just become the Demon-Slaying King, and the Pagoda Ancient Clan had already gained immense fame throughout the Great Thousand World.
Moreover, the Pagoda Ancient Clan's expansion of territory on the Tianluo Continent was already quite ostentatious.
Continuing to expand their influence may not be a good thing for the Pagoda Ancient Clan.
Moreover, he himself was not in a hurry to inherit the position of clan leader, after all, there was still one thing to be done within the Pagoda Ancient Clan.
The Tai Ling Ancient Clan is the most inclusive Gu Clan in the Great Thousand World, and they do not mind differences in bloodlines.
Throughout its history, it has produced many exceptionally talented and respected non-Clan saintesses who were highly regarded by their people.
At this moment, a quasi-saintess looked at the man in front of her and asked, "Are you sure you want to leave?"
"With your current cultivation level, you're actually not very strong in the outside world."
"Sister, I must leave here. I still need to find my father." The boy before her had icy eyes.
He is none other than Mu Chen, the long-lost sinner of the Pagoda Ancient Clan!
