"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor!"
One True Immortal after another emerged from seclusion. The Lin Family's young people found nothing strange about that; what shocked them far more was the Edict issued by the ancestor deep in the bamboo grove. In their eyes, that ancestor had remained in seclusion for far too long, rising and sinking through an entire epoch.
Even the Lin Family's Immortal Kings, Lin Zhong and Lin Jingjue, awakened from seclusion. Had Lin Zhen not gone to guard the Imperial Pass, all three kings of the Lin Family would have gathered.
"Have you two young friends brought an imperial decree?"
Lin Zhong was Lin Yue's direct ancestor. Even now that he had entered the Immortal King Realm, he dared not treat this grandson of his casually in the slightest. He was exceptionally solemn even when facing these two children, for they represented an Emperor's dignity.
"Yes! Our master instructed you to take the Edict to the World Tomb and collect the Myriad Dao Tree."
Accepting the simple, ancient Edict the little girl handed him, Lin Zhong paused in surprise. Rumors of that Myriad Dao Tree had indeed circulated, but it was not yet mature. It seemed this matter had drawn even Lin Yue's utmost attention.
"Jingjue, it seems you must go in person."
"Very well!"
Beside him, Lin Jingjue, the Lin Family Immortal King of Lin Yue's generation, spoke. He was a middle-aged man whose tranquil aura gave no hint that he was a cultivator.
An Immortal Dao king was the ultimate goal of countless people, yet faced with an imperial decree, he dared not show the slightest carelessness. An Immortal King would actually make the journey himself.
Before long, the Lin Family's world-crossing starship set out, with Lin Jingjue leading three True Immortals and a group of young people.
