Chapter 3080: Chapter 3078: Hidden Clues and the Fifth Heavenly Dao Relic

The steel manifestation, fearing awkwardness, deliberately avoided Sixteen of the Su Clan—because it, having studied under the Heavenly Emperor’s child, lacked a thick skin and was somewhat shy.

But Tyrannical Song himself was different!

He would not avoid Sixteen; on the contrary, he would sneak peeks at Sixteen’s current state.

With the assistance of the reliable Inner World Assistant, the treasures deeply hidden by Song Shuhang were unearthed with ease.

Upon seeing the treasure’s jade box dug up, Song Shuhang’s face reddened—a truly precious moment.

This was the face of someone in the Sub-immortal State, and it was actually struggling to hold up!

“Need my help?” the white dragon yawned and inquired once more.

She had asked more than once.

Humans can be like paper tigers, appearing steadfast at first, but hesitating when push comes to shove.

Still too young, after all.

If it were her… she wouldn’t have such a daring thought in the first place, simply out of worry of ‘losing the other person’!

“Wait… just a moment,” Su Clan’s 16.1 responded. At that moment, she was communicating with the hundreds of ‘Sixteens’ inside her, inquiring who had experience in this matter.

Unfortunately, none of the over hundred ‘Sixteen’ personalities could be of use.

“How about we pull out Su Clan’s Sixteen?” suggested Big Sister Sixteen.

The Su Clan’s Sixteen she referred to was, of course, the real Sixteen who was always operating in the background.

“Bringing out the real body now will only make things worse. It’s better for me to do it. Don’t be a coward, just go for it,” the impulsive Sixteen shouted.

“I think it would be better on the wedding night. After all, Song Shuhang is already sterile, so we don’t need to panic,” a timid Sixteen suggested.

“The problem is, we can’t miss this opportunity; if it slips by, it won’t come again. What if the real body moves from the background to the forefront? Given her personality, she might bury the thing again and pretend to know nothing about it, then go and start a very straightforward romance with Mr. Song, all the way to discussing marriage again,” the impulsive Sixteen reminded.

“Moreover, we don’t know if we’ll have another chance to come out once the real body moves to the forefront. Damn it, I can’t believe I lost. I still can’t believe it; I am supposed to be the strongest,” the skilled Sixteen couldn’t accept it even now.

“You don’t have to worry about that… Even if the real body moves to the forefront, we can still come out. This is called being playful, you wouldn’t understand,” Su Clan’s 16.1 coolly said.

This was a major advantage of the current ‘Su Clan’s Sixteen’!

Over a hundred different personalities and modes of Su Clan’s Sixteen, experiencing romance and companionship together—this is the taste of adulthood.

“Eh? Not good, the real body is about to end her background operation,” warned the observant Lady of the House Sixteen.

The ‘background operation’ mode of the real body was coming to an end step by step.

The ghost spirit fairy maiden urged quickly, “Hurry up, don’t hesitate, let the White Dragon help us.”

“White Dragon, quickly!” Su Clan’s 16.1 immediately handed the jade box into the claws of the White Dragon.

There was no time left.

Once the real body took over the forefront, all the efforts of her and all the little Sixteens would be in vain.

The White Dragon didn’t waste words.

As soon as she grabbed the jade box, she displayed the power of ‘space’—a powerhouse handling ‘space’ could do whatever she wanted at certain times.

The power of ‘space,’ always capable of achieving the unimaginable.

Unless the other party also mastered the power of ‘space’—only the space power could defend against space power!

Just as the White Dragon started casting, Su Clan’s Sixteen’s eyes became slightly trance-like for a moment, and the real body ended her background operation.

The ghost spirit fairy maiden glanced at the ‘jade box’ in the White Dragon’s claws and, after a brief sensing, said regretfully, “Too late?”

“We should… have made it in time?” the White Dragon answered.

Furthermore, just to be safe, she had only used half of Song Shuhang’s genetic material contained within the ‘jade box’.

Some things shouldn’t be staked on a single throw.

Su Clan’s Sixteen’s eyes still appeared somewhat hazy.

She extended her hands.

The White Dragon handed the jade box to her.

Then, Sixteen staggered over to the pit and buried the jade box back into it.

After a moment of thought, she pinched and cast a technique, causing a patch of vegetation to sprout over the soil pit.

Inner World Assistant: “…”

The treasure hiding area was originally a sandy region; Sixteen’s attempt to conceal the site with new vegetation only made the area more conspicuous.

After burying the jade box, Sixteen rubbed her temples.

At this moment, in her mind, the voices of over a hundred Sixteens were echoing together, creating a cacophony like that of a bustling marketplace.

“Sixteen point one, how’s the situation? Was it successful?”

“The White Dragon only said ‘it should be in time,’ but is it really in time?”

“Can even the White Dragon not be certain of the situation?”

“That’s why I said, don’t hesitate, hesitation leads to defeat! It’s not such a big deal!”

“If it weren’t for Mr. Song’s too quick advancement, we wouldn’t be so troubled, it’s all Mr. Song’s fault.”

“Song Shuhang has only been cultivating for a year, we can’t blame it all on him. It’s not like he wanted to be sterile.”

Su Clan’s Sixteen felt her head ache.

“Shuhang,” she called out to the sky.

This was the main world, so as long as she called out, Song Shuhang was sure to respond.

“I’m here~” Song Shuhang responded online instantly.

“Can you open the main world for me? I want the exit to appear at the Spirit River Su Clan,” Sixteen sweetly smiled.

Song Shuhang pondered for a bit and asked, “Do you want me to accompany you back?”

“Not this time, maybe next time,” Sixteen said as she opened her umbrella sword, “Go and prove your Dao to achieve pseudo-immortality, Shuhang! Don’t be concerned about what’s behind you; we’re all here supporting you.”

“Got it,” replied Song Shuhang, “I’ll open the gate for you.”

The passage to the Spirit River Su Clan opened up directly.

Meanwhile, Song Shuhang quietly sent the last of the three corpses, ‘Self-Corpse · Tyrannical Ba Ren’, to follow Sixteen, just in case.

After watching Sixteen leave, Song Shuhang began contacting ‘Lady Kunna,’ applying for entry.

Being acquainted with the highest authority of a world has its perks. Entry is granted as soon as it’s requested.

…

…

At the Spirit River Su Clan.

Sixteen quietly returned to the Su Clan’s territory.

“Seven is still asleep, and the other clan members shouldn’t particularly notice me,” Sixteen spoke softly.

She then tiptoed to the clan’s ancestral hall.

In the hall, there were memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Spirit River Su Clan.

The spot for the memorial tablet of the ancestor ‘Su Clan’s Knot’ had been left empty. It was quietly removed by the Golden Core Cultivators after ‘Knot Ancestor’ suddenly returned.

Sixteen lit incense sticks in the ancestral hall.

A few moments later.

An illusionary figure began to form in the hall.

It was the Spirit River Su Clan’s great ancestor, the one Song Shuhang had encountered before, the founder of the Spirit River Su Clan Trial, whose real name hadn’t been appraised, ‘Su Clan’s Sixteen.’

“Greetings to the ancestral manifestation,” Sixteen said as she bowed to Su Clan’s Sixteen, eventually adding, “After choosing to retain all ‘Sixteens,’ following the trial’s hidden hint, I have come to seek the ancestor and glimpse the primordial weapon of the Fifth Heavenly Dao.”

Apart from the mysterious first Heavenly Dao, the only Heavenly Dao Shuhang had not yet encountered was the Fifth.
