An Ancestor Was an Ancestor, All Right: Even His Sack Was Extraordinary

During a brief pause in Lu Changzhi's conversation with Mu Yuan.

The crowd below was quite excited.

The source of the excitement came from the ripples of power that had just surrounded the circle.

More accurately, it was a deliberate act by Lu Changzhi to prove to the old man that he could control this place.

"Not choosing to leave was definitely the right decision. I estimate that it won't be long before what's inside appears in the world." Someone looked ahead, their eyes filled with hope.

"The beast tide around us is getting stronger. Should we call for help? There's some fluctuation here; they'll definitely be willing to come," someone said to their companion while dealing with the beast tide.

"No, the more people there are, the less we'll take. Let's hold on and not let others get the benefits we've worked so hard to get," his companion said firmly.

Dai Tianfeng also opened his eyes during his closed-eye meditation, looked ahead, and waited Jingjing.

The same applies to Wujie and his group.

With the possibility of a treasure appearing in the world, an invisible competitive spirit has already permeated the top talents of both sides.

No one believes they are weaker than their competitors.

The atmosphere was palpable to everyone else present.

However, this is exactly what they wanted to see.

Let the two sides fight it out fiercely, leaving them no time to worry about anything else, so that they will have more opportunities to obtain the treasure.

Unfortunately, what they didn't know was...

The ripples just now had nothing to do with what was about to happen here.

Whether or not it is opened depends entirely on Lu Changzhi's wishes.

Whether Lu Changzhi wants to or not depends on Qin Han's progress.

"Is the palace trial too difficult, or is Qin Han's skill level limited...?"

Distracted by Qin Han's situation in the Eighth Palace, Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.

I looked up at the sky.

It's already so late; I guess my sleep will be delayed again tonight.

Now that they know this is where they're plotting their schemes, the ancestors don't intend to linger here any longer.

Those who needed to be busy continued with their work, and before leaving, they all reminded themselves to be extra careful, emphasizing that even with powerful methods, they could not be careless.

On the surface, it seemed like they were all about to leave, but in the end, they quietly left behind fourteen patriarchs, and they didn't even reply to messages, quietly protecting them.

When it comes to letting the younger generation fend for themselves, the elders of the sect have always been consistently dishonest.

Lu Changzhi felt somewhat helpless about this.

After all, this is just an avatar of mine.

If he encounters danger, he can run if he wants to; if he can't run, he can even turn around, embrace the danger, and then self-destruct.

But I figured I couldn't persuade them otherwise, so I decided to stop worrying about it.

He got up and went to the spot where Zhou Xun had been placed.

What catches the eye is a burlap sack that looks to be made of very good material.

That's right, it's a burlap sack.

Lu Changzhi was slightly taken aback by this.

However, after seeing the information about the sack through the system, Lu Changzhi remained silent for a moment.

[Mu Yuan's Sack]: Saint Rank Peak Grade. Crafted from the roots of the highest quality Ten-Li Hanging Vine, and supported by numerous array formations, it possesses exceptional toughness and astonishing binding power. Furthermore, it contains an illusion array targeting the mind, making it the ideal choice for kidnapping and hiding...

"Our ancestor truly lives up to his name."

Lu Changzhi sighed inwardly.

Even the burlap sacks are of Saint Rank Peak Grade.

The saying "Leave professional tasks to professionals" is absolutely true.

"System."

Lu Changzhi mentally called out:

"Use the Heart-Binding Devil Seed on Zhou Xun."

As the sound faded, a flash of light appeared.

In the system's warehouse, the heart that exuded an aura of evil and misfortune vanished into the sack in a flash, right before Lu Changzhi's eyes.

A moment later, the system voice sounded:

"Successfully completed. Estimated completion time: 34 days, 5 hours, and 3 quarters of an hour."

"It's taking this long?" Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow.

Completion time, which is the time during which he has complete control over the other party.

A month later, by which time the secret realm would have already ended.

However, he was prepared for this.

I can personally take action and use my acting talent to fool him.

However, not now.

He didn't intend to wake the other person up anytime soon.

However, the Heaven and Earth Pagoda is not currently in my possession, so I cannot temporarily put it away.

So, Lu Changzhi resorted to a makeshift method.

That's right, it means burying it in the ground.

Dig a hole, one person long and one person wide, wave your hand, and lie down peacefully inside.

Zhou Xun clearly knew the attraction of light to the Beast Race, so there was no light surrounding him at all.

This conveniently saved Lu Changzhi some effort.

Bury the soil and compact it.

I had just finished my work when a system notification suddenly popped up.

"Triggering the 'Birth of Fondness' event, the estimated completion time for the Heart-Binding Devil Seed' has been shortened. Current time: 15 days, 3 hours, and 1 quarter of an hour."

"Hmm?" Lu Changzhi's expression was strange.

"System, can you explain this?"

That cut the time in half immediately was something I hadn't expected.

"Reporting to Master, based on the current trial missions targeting the Blood Demon Clan, items related to demons are defined as bad."

"The Heart-Binding Devil Seed discovered demonic-related conditions within the target Zhou Xun's body. Therefore, the system defines them as birds of a feather, and because they share commonalities, the fusion process is accelerated."

The system explained.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Lu Changzhi's face.

"So the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty is indeed related to the Devil Race, or rather, the Blood Demon Clan?"

Combining what was discussed with Xue Chou before, Zhou Xun's previous plan to obtain Xiao Ye's essence blood, and the current situation...

The answer is already somewhat obvious.

"It seems that my direction is correct."

I glanced down.

Once things are more or less settled, I'll need to dig deeper into it myself.

As he was thinking this, Lu Changzhi's heart stirred slightly.

On Qin Han's side, substantial progress has finally been made.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi got up and returned to the vicinity of the palace.

It's alright, if it ends soon, it won't take up too much of my sleep time.

"Come on, let me experience the joy of reaping the benefits without sowing."

A smile crept onto Lu Changzhi's lips as he thought to himself.

At the same time, Qin Han finally entered the palace after pushing open several doors.

"Finally, finally they let me in!"

Qin Han took a deep breath, then couldn't help but burst into laughter.

This palace is certainly not so easy to enter.

Each door represents a different test: understanding the sword, mastering the sword, examining one's potential and resilience, and even testing the steadfastness of one's mind.

The fake is more tempting than the real; he doesn't understand why he should test himself with beauty.

However, no wonder it was difficult, it ultimately failed to trap him.

I hope the things here won't disappoint me.

With a soft voice, Qin Han's gaze swept across the palace.

The moment he opened his eyes, his pupils contracted sharply.

"This sword is incredibly powerful!"

Immediately, Qin Han was overjoyed.

There was no disappointment, not even the slightest bit; it was all pure joy.

I never imagined that the treasures in this palace would be so extraordinary.

Immediately, he quickened his pace and rushed straight towards where the longsword was.

A stroke of incredible luck—he's here!
