Chapter 175

This was once the vital implement for Tian Yuan's closed-door cultivation, capable of isolating the erosion of time's power; this coffin is not simple.

Upon hearing that, Lu Xuan fixed his gaze; with his Four-Star Emperor Realm cultivation, he could indeed discern some clues.

This ancient coffin is forged from the heavenly oddity, Fallen Divine Wood; its surface bears supreme Dao patterns that constantly flow, counteracting the forces of heaven and earth and the power of time; if the coffin is covered, its interior becomes a separate small world, rich in Dao Resonance—an excellent place for closed-door cultivation and enlightenment.

At this moment, Chen Zhangsheng sent a voice transmission to Lu Xuan: "Master, may I let Ancestor Tianxing know that you have left this coffin?"

Yaojia Laozu

Chen Zhangsheng said, "Master, it may be useless to you, but it is of great use to me!"

Nangong Baixue

Obviously, Chen Zhangsheng is one of the old antiques of Nan Huang.

Ancestor Tianxing asked, "Lu Xuan, you can tell that fellow Daoist that this object contains the qi mechanism of Tian Yuan; perhaps thereby one can probe Tian Yuan's hiding place."

Lu Xuan nodded: "Sure. But wouldn't it be better to leave this coffin?"

Medicine Family

As he spoke, Ancestor Tianxing, with a thought, stored the ancient coffin in his spatial ring and tossed it to Lu Xuan.

The sect leader and others nodded: "Then we will wait for that fellow Daoist's news."

Cloud Province

Lu Xuan gave a light smile, patted Chen Zhangsheng's shoulder: "Alright. Since you've taken the item, you must act; the task of bringing back Ancestor Tian Yuan is entrusted to you."

Lu Xuan smiled and said, "This time, you just activate the fastest spatial array pattern; when you return, I'll give you some pointers."

Chen Zhangsheng nodded, "Good. After all, having taken the coffin of the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor, we should rescue him."

The next instant.

Radiant divine splendor surged over Chen Zhangsheng, forming a white robe; endless divine splendor enveloped him, making it impossible for others to tell whether that white-robed Great Emperor was him or someone else!

"Master, I'm leaving!"

The power of the spatial array pattern surged, and Chen Zhangsheng vanished on the spot.

Lu Xuan's face twitched, "Just send a puppet!"

Chen Zhangsheng said, "Master, I have an eighty‑nine percent confidence I can rescue the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor."

Meanwhile, Chen Zhangsheng's true body was still on Xuan Qing Feng.

Lu Xuan's gaze was deep, "Old Three, old three, you're really good at playing it safe."

At the same time.

A piece of news exploded in Nan Huang.

The Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor fled to Fengzhou, where he was discovered healing his wounds in a hidden spot and immediately faced a siege by five Nine‑Star Great Emperors.

Although these five Great Emperors concealed their auras and did not use their innate techniques, from the battle it was clear that among them were humans, demons, and foreign races.

Unexpectedly, this time the supreme powers of the human race, demon race, and foreign race have joined forces!

This expedition aims to slay the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor and seize the wisp of Bronze Ancient Hall Dao Resonance he holds.

The strongmen of all provinces were shocked.

This time the matter has truly blown up!

If the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor falls, it would be an utterly fatal blow to the Grand Dao Sect!

Later, word came that the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor used the Grand Dao Scripture to shield heavenly secrets and escaped again from the clutches of the five Great Emperors!

However, his injuries became even graver!

Everyone felt utterly shocked; despite his grave wounds, he managed to escape from the five Nine‑Star Great Emperors—truly worthy of the Grand Dao Scripture!

However, this also has to do with the five Great Emperors daring not to reveal their ultimate techniques!

This gave the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor a chance to fight for his life!

The matter quickly spread throughout all provinces, causing an uproar.

In Yuzhou, the Nine Balance Old Ancestor gazed up and sighed, "Could it be that Nan Huang is about to change? Fellow Daoist Heavenly Origin's foray into Tianluo Province is truly a misstep! This time the secret key of the Bronze Ancient Hall might fall into the hands of the foreign race or the demon race!"

The Yao Family Old Ancestor's eyes were deep, "The current situation in Nan Huang is exceedingly delicate. Earlier, the fellow Daoist from Xuan Qing Feng forcibly awakened many strong ones, stirring the tide ahead of time; later, the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor, gravely wounded, was hunted down. Thus, although the Bronze Ancient Hall has not yet appeared, the signs of a chaotic age are already showing."

The Supreme Profound Sect's Nan Chenzi went further, publicly condemning the Grand Dao Sect, "If the Dao Resonance of the Bronze Ancient Hall falls into the hands of the foreign race or the demon race, then the Grand Dao Sect will be a sinner in human history!"

Nangong Baixue heard the news and her heart leapt with joy.

If the Grand Dao Sect falls, then Ye Chen will surely die, and the Ye family will surely perish!

And Lu Xuan, and Ji Fuyao—let them die for her! Die! Die! Die!

She, feeling great, decided to give Qin Wang another reward, and also give herself one.

On the purple wu wood bed, Qin Wang panted, lying beside Nangong Bai Xue, sweating profusely.

Nangong Bai Xue directly gave Qin Wang a slap: "Trash! Only a few breaths? I haven't even taken off my clothes yet!"

At the same time.

Yinzhou, Heavenly Net Palace branch.

In the main hall, Gu Lang Great Emperor had already gathered many great emperors.

On the high seat, Gu Lang Great Emperor wore a smile, feeling pleased, looking down at the black-clothed great emperor: "Are all matters settled?"

The black-clothed great emperor said: "Grand Elder! The long-distance transmission array of Yinzhou has been reinforced, and a palace lord's decree has been embedded within it, capable of withstanding a strike from a nine-star great emperor; this is the first."

"I have already sent several great emperors to the Ye family of Qingcheng; they are on standby! This is the second!"

"Now everything is ready! Just await your order, and we can capture the people of the Ye family of Qingcheng and bring them to Yinzhou!"

Gu Lang Great Emperor stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "Excellent! Excellent! This time, heaven truly aids me! Coincidentally, the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor is under siege and about to perish! Now that white-robed great emperor is likely wavering—whether to protect the Black Flame Mountain Range or go rescue the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor!"

A blue-robed great emperor said: "In my view, Ji Fuyao is merely a Holy King; although his potential is limitless, the great age has descended, leaving little time for him to grow! As for the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor, he is different—he is one of the cornerstones of the Grand Dao Sect. Therefore, I think that white-robed great emperor is likely going to rescue the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestor!"

"In that case, the Black Flame Mountain Range lies empty; Grand Elder, why not we take a gamble and directly assault the Black Flame Mountain Range to capture Ji Fuyao?"

Gu Lang Great Emperor snorted coldly: "Fool! With the best plan, why take risks? What a damn gamble!"

The blue-robed great emperor said: "The Grand Elder's words are absolutely correct!"

In the next instant.

Gu Lang Great Emperor flicked his sleeve: "Convey my order—capture the people of the Ye clan of Qingcheng! Immediately! Act now!"
