Chapter 298: Unexpected Discovery (Thanks to [Eight Hundred Thousand Yingying Monster General Education)
Inside the Palace, Yusu asked her master for more time to gain experience, a look of joy appearing on her face.
The ball of light representing her master was still flickering.
"Yusu, you must remember, strength is the foundation."
"Many thanks for your teachings, Master."
"Some time ago, some Evil Gods broke through the front lines and infiltrated the Tianfang World; you must be careful."
Broke through the front lines?
Hearing this, Yusu's expression became grave.
Every single Evil God would bring disaster to the world.
She had not expected that with so many powerhouses from the Tianfang Alliance guarding the front lines, some Evil Gods would still manage to slip into the Tianfang Small Thousand World.
"This disciple understands." Yusu felt a sense of urgency in her heart; she was currently only at the True Immortal Realm, and it would take quite some time to break through to the Venerable Immortal Realm.
"After a hundred years, bring that person here; I will vet him for you." Wendi Immortal Lord's voice was devoid of joy or sorrow.
Yet, Yusu felt a trace of shyness and joy in her heart.
"Very well." She nodded.
Her master had always been open-minded.
Unlike other Immortal Lords, who were single-mindedly focused on the Dao and could not tolerate a single grain of sand in their eyes.
The light flickered, then finally went silent.
Yusu bowed and left the Palace.
She headed toward the side hall.
Her senior sister Fengxue had been guarding the side hall all along.
It was this senior sister who had brought her back from the Ancient War World.
Upon entering the side hall, Yusu immediately felt that powerful aura.
Fengxue opened her eyes, a flash of gold light passing through them: "Junior sister, you have returned."
Looking at the senior sister before her, a look of reverence welled up in Yusu's heart: "Senior sister's cultivation... has progressed quite a bit again."
At the Venerable Immortal Realm, every small step forward was exceptionally difficult.
However, every time Yusu saw this senior sister, the aura on her body grew extremely quickly.
"A slight breakthrough." A hint of self-satisfaction flashed in Fengxue's eyes, "This is all thanks to the True Dragon Technique bestowed by Master; it is profound and mysterious, leading directly to the Great Dao."
The True Dragon Technique was the foundation of Wendi Immortal Lord's standing.
It was rumored that this secret technique was derived from the legendary dragon race.
Only those at the Venerable Immortal Realm could cultivate it.
Wendi Immortal Lord was able to have such powerful influence and prestige within the Tianfang Alliance precisely because of this secret technique.
"Junior sister, you must break through to the Venerable Immortal Realm as soon as possible to be able to cultivate this technique." Fengxue said softly, "This technique is the foundation of our lineage."
"I understand." Yusu nodded.
"It is a pity that this technique is too profound; even now, I have only just reached the Beginner stage.
According to the records and descriptions of this technique, upon reaching a deep level of mastery, one can even summon the phantom of a True Dragon from the myths and legends."
Mentioning the True Dragon, Fengxue's eyes were filled with reverence.
In the Tianfang Small Thousand World, there were no dragon races at all.
Only in larger Intermediate Thousand Worlds, or even Great Thousand Worlds, could one find traces of the dragon race.
Every dragon was extremely rare.
"Senior sister, I have some matters I would like to trouble you with."
Yusu told Fengxue about the Golden Cloud Sword Technique and the affairs of the Wu Kingdom.
Her master was an Immortal Lord and guarded the front lines, so naturally, it was not appropriate for her to ask her master about such things.
Therefore, she troubled Fengxue.
"A small matter." Fengxue did not refuse and agreed immediately.
"I leave it to you, Senior sister."
"Back then, you lent me the Cangyi for contemplation, which allowed me to step into the Venerable Immortal Realm.
Such a small matter... between us sisters, there is no need to be so polite."
"Very well." Yusu nodded.
"Yusu, is that man who helped you bear the backlash of the Cangyi still alive?" Fengxue changed the subject, her words carrying an inexplicable tone.
"Yes." Yusu nodded.
"It seems that person is quite an interesting character; if I have some free time, I would like to go to the Ancient War World and meet him."
Ancient War World, Kyoto.
On the main street, Xu Xiaojing was hugging Xu Ling's arm, half her body almost pressed against him.
"Uncle, I want to eat that!"
The current Xiao Jing was like a little child in front of Lin Chao.
Xu Ling smiled: "Alright."
He took out money, bought a few meat skewers, and the two of them began to eat together.
"The Tianfang Alliance... are there many powerhouses?" Lin Chao thought of something and asked casually.
"Powerhouses are as numerous as clouds; the Innate Martial Artists of our world don't count for much at all in the Tianfang Alliance.
In the Tianfang Alliance, there are dozens of Immortal Lords alone."
"Immortal Lord, is at least an Upper-rank Venerable Immortal powerhouse." Xu Xiaojing did not hide anything from Lin Chao.
Upper-rank Venerable Immortal?
Lin Chao's gaze surged.
A Small Thousand World, truly incomparably powerful.
When in the Qiyuan World, the number of Upper-rank Venerable Immortals and Upper Gods combined did not even reach the count of one hand.
Here, in the Tianfang Alliance alone there are at least dozens, and in the entire Small Thousand World, there are estimated to be over a hundred.
I wonder if there are any powerhouses at the Main God Realm.
Lin Chao's gaze surged.
In such a Small Thousand World, it would not be strange for a Main God to appear.
Lin Chao's strength is currently very high, but he considers his strength still too weak.
Encountering a Main God would mean certain death.
He must continue to cultivate as quickly as possible and bring all his Qi-Blood Martial Dao to the Innate Realm.
Lin Chao accompanied Xu Xiaojing, and the two visited many more places.
……
The night was deep.
Lin Chao walked out of the Crown Hotel.
Not long after, his figure appeared in a courtyard.
In the courtyard, a young figure appeared: "Greetings, Senior."
The young voice was none other than Cheng Yang of the First Immortal Academy.
At this moment, he looked at Xu Ling, the awe in his eyes even greater.
After all, the recent turmoil in Zhonglian Country could not be separated from Senior Xu Ling.
And that woman who was clearly emotionally tied to Xu Ling had Slayed Jianhua Gongzi.
As a result, the sect master and Supreme Elder of the Leijian Sect, a top-ten power in the Ancient Origin Realm, came personally to carry thorns and beg for forgiveness, which made Cheng Yang understand even more the power of Xu Ling, and that he was invincible.
"You said that in a place in Kyoto, you discovered traces of a Building?" Xu Ling spoke, getting straight to the point.
One of the reasons he came to Kyoto was to search for the Building.
Within the Buildings he controlled, he had already distributed many cultivation techniques.
Among them, one technique, created by Lin Chao, could sense the approximate location of the Building's main body.
"Yes." Cheng Yang nodded excitedly, "However... that place is somewhat special."
"Hmm?"
"It is in the Holy Light Mausoleum."
"It is actually here."
Lin Chao's memories flowed, and he recalled that peerlessly elegant woman he had once seen.
She was the ancestor of the Holy Light Sect, and the first Innate Martial Artist he had ever seen.
It was through Sheng Guang Laozu that Lin Chao learned more about Innate Martial Artists and Innate Gods.
He did not expect that the address of that Building would actually be in the Holy Light Mausoleum.
The Holy Light Mausoleum was the tomb of Sheng Guang Laozu, who was also the founding Emperor of the Holy Dynasty.
Back then, Yusu Shenghuang offended the martial artists of the world, so he was not buried in the imperial mausoleum that had been constructed.
"You have done well; I shall bestow this wisp of Divine Power upon you.
With the nourishment of this wisp of Divine Power, your cultivation speed will greatly increase, and at a critical moment, it will also save your life."
A wisp of Divine Power burst forth from Lin Chao's hand and surged into Cheng Yang's body.
Feeling that surging aura, a look of wild joy appeared in Cheng Yang's eyes.
"Many thanks, Senior."
That was Divine Power.
To exchange for a wisp of Divine Power in the Building requires over 200 points.
Up until now, no one in the Building had ever exchanged for Divine Power.
How could Cheng Yang not be surprised and delighted to receive this?
Lin Chao did not care.
From these Buildings, Lin Chao had still obtained quite a few God Positions.
These God Positions, he was currently unable to refine.
However, creating some Divine Power through these God Positions was nothing to him.
After seeing Cheng Yang, Lin Chao left.
He intended to go to the Holy Light Mausoleum himself.
Night fell, and all of Kyoto was still filled with bright lights and bustling activity.
However, the closer he got to the Holy Light Mausoleum, the colors of the world gradually became dim.
In the middle of the night, the Holy Light Mausoleum had long since closed its doors and did not accept tourists.
Lin Chao flashed his figure and entered the Holy Light Mausoleum.
"The aura of the Building."
Lin Chao sensed it carefully.
Here, he indeed sensed an aura similar to the Building; although it was very obscure, it was indeed there.
"The specific location... seems to be inside the mausoleum."
Sensing this, Lin Chao felt these gods were somewhat inhumane.
Building a Building inside someone else's tomb.
His figure flashed, and he also entered the tomb.
The tombs here had long since been excavated, and all the burial objects had been sent to museums.
This made Lin Chao sigh slightly.
What did it matter how powerful one was while alive?
If one could not escape death.
After one's own death, wouldn't one's tomb still be at the mercy of others to excavate?
Fortunately, the corpse of Sheng Guang Laozu was not truly buried here.
Otherwise, Lin Chao believed that given the power of Sheng Guang Laozu, these descendants would certainly have dug up the corpse of Sheng Guang Laozu to conduct research.
The unique thing about Lin Chao compared to others was that he possessed endless lifespan.
If, back during the time of the Holy Dynasty, someone had truly offended Lin Chao deeply, he could even have dug up their grave, leaving them no peace after death.
However, Lin Chao thought that the enemies he had killed were likely thrown into mass graves, with no descendants to bury them at all.
Lin Chao entered the depths of the Holy Light Mausoleum.
Suddenly, Lin Chao stopped in his tracks.
He smelled an unusual aura.
This unusual aura did not feel like a Building to him.
Rather...
"Yuan Shi Legacy?"
Lin Chao was slightly stunned.
From the mouth of Yusu, he already knew that Yusu had originally relied on a Supreme Treasure from the Yuan Shi Legacy, the Cang Yi, to cut off the Qi-Blood Martial Dao and return vitality and a new atmosphere to the world.
Now, in the mausoleum, he seemed to have discovered another Yuan Shi Legacy.
Thinking of Sheng Guang Laozu, Lin Chao was not surprised.
After all, Sheng Guang Laozu was Yusu's master.
Yusu's Yuan Shi Legacy was obtained from Sheng Guang Laozu.
Ahead, there was a Formation.
This Formation had not yet been broken.
"It seems that Sheng Guang Laozu did not fully obtain this Yuan Shi Legacy."
"A Formation, huh..."
Looking at the Formation ahead, a complex expression flashed in Lin Chao's eyes.
When he was in Jiuzhou, his puppet pill clone had also entered the Immortal Array Sect.
As a True Disciple of the Immortal Array Sect, he controlled countless powerful immortal formations.
His attainments in Formations could be considered the best in Jiuzhou.
Regarding Formations, he was still quite proud of himself.
Lin Chao believed he would soon be able to break this Formation.
Looking at the Formation ahead, Lin Chao confidently entered the great formation.
But soon, his confidence vanished, and he became at a loss.
This Formation was unexpectedly strong.
With his attainments in Formations, he could not break it at all, or rather, he could not even find the gate of the formation.
Lin Chao's gaze remained unchanged: "Ordinary methods of breaking a Formation are ineffective against this one.
However... I possess a higher way of breaking Formations.
Any Formation can be broken by force; this is the truly upright way to break a formation!"
Without any hesitation, Lin Chao extended his fist.
Surging Innate Power surged once again.
The surrounding space seemed to be split apart.
With Lin Chao's current strength, the power of a single punch could affect the surrounding environment, and could also divide space, pressing the power of the punch entirely into the locked space.
Boom!
One punch went down.
The surroundings remained the surroundings, without any change.
However, that terrifying Formation turned into ashes under Lin Chao's punch.
And at this moment, the Yuan Shi Legacy appeared before Lin Chao.
"This is... a book?"
Looking at the golden, glittering book, Lin Chao's gaze was slightly stunned.
With a wave of his hand, the book surged into his hand.
Instantly, countless pieces of information surged into Lin Chao's mind.
"The replacement of the new with the old... Gate... the old spirits must be destroyed..."
This book recorded the origin of the Yuanshi Sect and their mission.
The Yuanshi Sect came from the Central Heavenly Realm.
The Central Heavenly Realm was a high-energy, high-status world, the center of all Great Thousand Worlds.
The Yuanshi Sect was founded by two supreme beings, known as the Yuan Ancestor and the Shi Ancestor.
The realms of these two supreme powerhouses were unfathomable, and Lin Chao could not guess them at present.
"Could they be Ten-Tier powerhouses?" Lin Chao guessed in his heart.
The Ninth Tier is the Main God.
The Main God is the strongest being in a Small Thousand World.
The Yuanshi Sect comes from the Central Heavenly Realm and is a Ten-Tier powerhouse, or perhaps even higher; this is very likely.
Of course, compared to the Dao Ancestor, Lin Chao felt they were still far behind.
"Is the mission of the Yuanshi Sect to eliminate the remnants of the old era?"
Lin Chao frowned.
The remnants of the old era, to put it another way, are... the powerhouses on the Ancient Battlefield capable of resurrection.
These powerhouses are all cruel and bloodthirsty; once resurrected, they will cause the world to fall.
Of course, not all powerhouses resurrected on the Ancient Battlefield are evil.
However, regardless of whether they are good or bad, they are enemies of all current worlds.
According to the records of the Yuanshi Sect, if a remnant of the old era truly awakens in a Small Thousand World,
then a mysterious organization called the "Gate" will appear.
This organization is incomparably powerful and terrifyingly extraordinary.
It will deploy a type of terrifying weapon to destroy the world where the remnant of the old era has awakened.
It does not just destroy a Single World; even some Intermediate Thousand Worlds have been implicated by the remnants of the old era and annihilated by the Gate Organization.
The Gate Organization is incomparably powerful and mysterious, with no one knowing its origins.
Even in the Central Heavenly Realm, no one can know the origins of the Gate Organization.
This has led to all worlds harboring hostility toward the remnants of the old era.
Once there is a sign of a remnant of the old era awakening, it must be strangled at the source.
Otherwise, once the Gate Organization discovers the appearance of a remnant of the old era, the entire world will suffer a catastrophic disaster.
It is precisely because of this that the Yuanshi Sect truly appeared.
The Original Ancestor and the Beginning Ancestor created endless Supreme Treasures and cast them into all the Ancient Battlefields of the heavens and myriad worlds, all for the purpose of annihilating all remnants of the old era.
"Innate Gods... are they remnants of the old era?"
