Chapter 559: Chapter 319, 6th Generation: Journey to the Ruins, Upper Heaven Ancestral God! _2
"Is this the legendary Three Immortal Mountains?"
A glimmer of understanding flashed in Lu Yuan’s eyes.
"The Ruins have law seals left by the Celestial Emperor that forbid Qi Refiners above the Dharma Realm from entering. I can only take you this far."
"As for the entrance to the Ancestral Court, it’s hidden within the Penglai Immortal Mountain in the center."
"You carry the Celestial Emperor of the Human Race’s bloodline. Simply climbing that Immortal Mountain will naturally lead you into the Ancestral Court."
The Imperial Tutor explained to everyone.
"Thank you, Imperial Tutor, elder."
Lu Yuan and Ji Chen, along with others, cupped their hands in salute.
But at that moment, a roar like thunder suddenly exploded between heaven and earth.
"Who dares to trespass on our Celestial Court’s sacred grounds?"
Before the voice faded.
Three awe-inspiring figures, with god-like might and terrifying power, emerged from the void.
Different from the Celestial Deities Lu Yuan had seen before.
These three majestic figures exuded overwhelming qi, with the shadow of a Divine Country floating behind them.
In that Divine Country, countless beings could be vaguely seen worshipping and venerating them as gods!
As soon as they appeared.
They replaced the rules and order, becoming the only existence in the world!
Even when they saw the Imperial Tutor, they merely glanced coldly without showing any fear.
"This is troublesome. I didn’t expect Heaven to value the Ruins so much, to the point of dispatching three Ancestral Gods to guard this place."
Ji Chen’s heart sank, exclaiming in shock.
What are Ancestral Gods?
If ordinary Celestial Deities are merely pseudo-gods who have ignited the Divine Fire and grasped some Power of Laws.
Then Ancestral God Realm strong individuals can be reborn from a single drop of blood and have completely mastered the Authority of one Law, capable of guarding a realm on behalf of the Celestial Emperor!
In the Lower Realm, I am the Ancestor, in the Divine Dao, I am the pinnacle!
Though only two characters differ between the authority of laws and the power of laws.
The gap between the two is as vast as heaven and earth.
In ancient times, the Celestial Emperor of Upper Heaven quelled the Human Race’s rebellion and established the Celestial Court by divine command, shepherding all beings for the Divine Demon Race.
Because of this.
The Celestial Emperor of Upper Heaven gained some Heavenly Dao Authority from the Divine Demon Race.
Later, the Celestial Emperor bestowed divine authority, giving the authority of the Three Thousand Laws to his deities.
The Three Thousand Laws correspond to Three Thousand Ancestral Gods.
Heaven possesses millions of deities and a hundred thousand Celestial Gods, but the Ancestral Gods have always remained only three thousand.
Each one fills a unique role.
Unless you can transcend the Heavenly Dao and are not bound by this realm’s laws.
Otherwise, in front of an Ancestral God Realm strong individual who has cultivated the same law.
No matter how great your talent, power, or comprehension, you can never surpass the gap between you and them!
It’s not an exaggeration to say.
Any Ancestral God can destroy an entire lower realm with a flick of their finger.
This is only because the Human Race in the Great Wilderness is sheltered by fortune, and several Celestial Emperors left behind future measures.
Otherwise, Upper Heaven could easily send an Ancestral God to annihilate all descendants of the Human Race!
Even though Yu Qi, Qing Yan, and others are descendants of the Celestial Emperor, when they first faced the insurmountable existence of Ancestral Gods.
They still trembled, a despair of never being able to surpass them surfaced suddenly.
Because these three majestic figures have already mastered the power of a certain law to the extreme.
For those coming later to surpass them, it is nearly impossible.
"Millions of deities, a hundred thousand Celestial Gods, three thousand Ancestral Gods, this is Heaven’s foundation?"
Lu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking calm.
Compared to the other Great Wilderness Celestial Prides whose complexions were pale and whose Dao hearts were shaken, he was evidently unaffected.
"Kid, aren’t you afraid?"
Someone tugged on Lu Yuan’s sleeve, whispering.
Lu Yuan turned to see that it was none other than the little girl Jiang Ya, whom he had once met before.
She only reached Lu Yuan’s chest but, older by a few years, persistently called Lu Yuan a brat.
"The path of cultivation is to go against the heavens and seize life from the sky."
"We cultivators do not fear even Heaven’s Will, so why fear the so-called Ancestral Gods?"
Lu Yuan said indifferently.
He had experienced countless cycles of reincarnation, weathered many storms and calamities.
Let alone three mere Ancestral Gods, even if the Celestial Emperor of Upper Heaven came personally, it would only make him pay a bit more attention.
"Oh, what you said seems to make some sense."
Although Jiang Ya had a mischievous personality, her mind was exceptionally clever.
At this moment, upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words, she nodded with some understanding.
The other Great Wilderness Celestial Prides, upon hearing this, were also as if waking from a dream, seemingly breaking through a mental barrier.
Lu Yuan was not wrong.
Ancestral God strong persons occupying the Law divine positions left almost no hope for those who came after them to surpass.
Yet for Qi Refiners like them, they were meant to seize destiny from the heavens.
If they blindly believed in Heaven’s Will and so-called fate, then why bother with strenuously cultivating at all; they might as well just stay at home and sleep all day.
"Hahaha, what a path against the heavens."
"The young friend is correct. Just a few Ancestral Gods occupying hollow positions, and they dare to speak arrogantly of Heaven’s Will?"
The Imperial Tutor laughed up to the sky and instantly leapt into the air, using his power to block the three Ancestral Gods.
At the same time.
With a wave of his large sleeve, Lu Yuan and the others were uncontrollably lifted and fell into the distant ancient forest.
"Go, I will try my best to buy time for you."
"Take care, Senior Imperial Tutor!"
Lu Yuan cupped his hands in salute once again, then turned and walked into the ancient forest.
But as soon as he took two steps, Ji Chen and the other Great Wilderness Celestial Prides quickly approached him.
"Do you have something to say?"
Lu Yuan paused in his steps and asked in a deep voice.
There was no camaraderie between him and Ji Chen and the others.
Previously, it was only because they were both descendants of the Human Race that he used [Heaven’s Will] to help the Great Wilderness repel the Dading Clan army.
But if Ji Chen and the others had ulterior motives towards him, then they could not blame him for being ruthless.
Only what Lu Yuan did not expect was.
As soon as Ji Chen approached, he took out a bottle of elixir and stuffed it into Lu Yuan’s hand.
"You, this is..."
Lu Yuan was stunned.
Even kept inside a jade bottle, the elixir’s radiant glow overflowed, clearly extremely precious.
"Brother Lu Yuan has exceptional temperament, making us feel ashamed in comparison."
"Previously we were blind to the obvious, having offended you on many occasions. We beg Brother Lu to forgive us."
Ji Chen cupped his hands in a salute and sincerely apologized.
As the leader of the younger generation of the Great Wilderness, although proud, he was no fool.
Even someone as powerful as Yu Xiong in the Ascension Realm eagerly sought good relations with Lu Yuan.
If he caused displeasure with Lu Yuan at this time, would that not be seeking his own demise?
The other Great Wilderness Celestial Prides obviously understood the stakes involved, and they too expressed their apologies to Lu Yuan.
Qing Yan, in particular, gritted his teeth and offered an ancient wondrous treasure to Lu Yuan as an apology.
"Brother Lu Yuan, previously Qing Mou was blinded by greed and dared to covet Brother Lu’s Ice and Fire Spiritual Silkworm, which was utterly unforgivable."
As Qing Yan spoke, his face showed pained reluctance, as he presented a flowerpot to Lu Yuan with both hands.
The surface of the flowerpot was etched with intricate patterns, capable of absorbing and refining Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy on its own.
Needless to say, the flowerpot itself was a wondrous treasure.
Moreover, inside the flowerpot, the soil was clearly defined and multicolored, as radiant as jade and agate.
In the soil was a young Fire Mulberry sapling.
The sapling was blood-red like fire, its crimson branches and leaves resembling burning flames, emanating extremely powerful Power of Laws.
This was, astoundingly, an Innate Spirit Wood!
However, this ’Innate’ was different from the Innate status of the Divine Demon Race.
So-called Innate Spirit Wood refers to those which existed in Ancient Times, already bearing complete Law Dao Marks.
After all, the Laws of later generations were created and altered by the Upper Heaven, far different from the ancient Laws.
But even so.
The value of this Fire Mulberry sapling was immeasurable, even slightly superior to the Fusang Divine Leaf Lu Yuan had obtained before.
Although the Fusang Divine Leaf was rare, it was ultimately just a single leaf; how could it compare to a complete Innate Spirit Wood?
Seeing this Fire Mulberry Spirit Wood, all the Great Wilderness Celestial Prides felt complicated emotions.
Not long ago.
In their eyes, Lu Yuan was just an unknown young man with slightly impressive talent and rustic clothing.
But now.
Qing Yan, as the most outstanding Celestial Pride of the Fu Xi Clan in this generation, personally offered an Innate Spirit Wood to Lu Yuan, with an apprehensive look, fearing that Lu Yuan might not accept it.
The disparity in circumstances left them profoundly moved, while also feeling a touch of relief.
Fortunately, none of them had any substantial conflicts with Lu Yuan.
Otherwise, not only they, but even the clans and tribes behind them might have been dragged into an abyss beyond redemption!
