Chapter 162: Chapter 135: Our Divine Sword Sect Has a True Ancestor (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Outside the ancient relics.

On the hillside, a silhouette stood.

It was Xiao Wendao, who had been standing here for nearly half a month.

The others from the Divine Sword Sect saw this scene and were very puzzled, not knowing why their elder cousin kept staring at the ancient relics?

Only Xiao Wendao knew that the senior in the black cloak had entered the array half a month ago.

Such a long time, yet there was no movement at all.

He began to worry a bit.

But he couldn’t tell the others.

So far, only he and Li Qian from the Chen Bell Platform knew about the existence of that senior.

"Hope nothing goes wrong."

Xiao Wendao sighed inwardly.

If something happened to that senior, it would definitely be the biggest loss for the Divine Sword Sect.

Compared to discovering the ancient relics, the existence of that senior would be the biggest boon for the Divine Sword Sect.

At this moment, from the misty canyon, there came a faint noise, followed by the rolling of toxic mist, dispersing around as if it had lost its constraints.

"What’s this?"

Xiao Wendao’s pupils shrank sharply.

"Uncle Master, why did the poisonous miasma suddenly start dispersing?"

A silhouette flew over; it was Guiyi Peak Master Hou Shuwen.

He had also been paying attention to this side.

"If there are no accidents, the array must have been broken."

Xiao Wendao murmured as if speaking to himself.

"Broken?"

Hou Shuwen was startled, Uncle Master’s words sounded so strange.

"Uncle Master, shall we disperse the poisonous miasma now?"

He asked again.

"Wait a bit longer."

Xiao Wendao shook his head.

After a while, suddenly the ground trembled slightly, and a dull roar was heard from within the ancient relics.

Xiao Wendao and others faintly sensed that an invisible wave swept past.

In their minds, it seemed as if something roared.

Their spines chilled, as if they had just experienced some great terror.

"Uncle Master, what just happened?"

Hou Shuwen asked hurriedly with a face full of astonishment.

"I don’t know, let’s quickly disperse the poisonous miasma."

Xiao Wendao shook his head.

He guessed that it might have been the senior confronting something inside the ancient relics.

Then he moved, arriving at the entrance of the ancient relics, gestured with his hand, and a powerful True Qi surged, forcibly dispersing the secretive poisonous miasma.

Hou Shuwen joined in.

....

Inside the cave.

Li Qian stored the demon stone in a black iron ring on his finger.

Although he didn’t know how the will in the Ape Demon’s corpse appeared, he guessed that the Lizard Demon must have accidentally entered the cave and was transformed into a demon after being enlightened by the will inside the Ape Demon.

Such a weak demon couldn’t have been formed for too long.

It was probably related to that celestial and terrestrial anomaly.

The will in the Ape Demon’s corpse might also have appeared after that anomaly.

Suddenly, Li Qian looked at the black iron staff.

This object was obviously a Divine Refinement Weapon.

When he tried to pick it up, he found it extremely heavy.

He took a deep breath, operated the Qi Blood Holy Realm, enveloped the black iron staff, and forcibly lifted it.

"What kind of material is this staff made from? Why is it so heavy?"

Li Qian was extremely surprised.

Just by its weight, this staff must weigh at least ten thousand pounds.

He vaguely realized the terrifying power contained within the staff, but no matter how he tried to activate it, it had no effect.

This is the downside of Divine Refinement Weapons, if they can’t match and be refined, they’re just like poking sticks.

Moreover, the staff was quite large.

After all, it belonged to that huge Ape Demon.

Luckily, the space inside his black iron ring was big enough to barely fit it.

Next, he used his Spiritual Perception to search the cave, finding some demon race books and two Jade Scrolls.

Although there were some other things... they were of no use to him.

Just leave it to the Divine Sword Sect.

Anyway, the major gains have already been obtained.

Thus, he moved and flew toward the cave dwelling.

Using the pervasive poison fog, Li Qian avoided Xiao Wendao and Hou Shuwen, both Heavenly Persons of the Divine Sword Sect.

Wearing a black cloak and utilizing the Chen Bell to mask his aura, neither of them noticed his departure.

Xiao Wendao and Hou Shuwen cautiously approached the cave entrance and slowly felt their way inside.

Along the way, they encountered no danger.

Moreover, they discovered many valuable items in each stone chamber.

However, they did not immediately take them but continued their search.

Eventually, they arrived at the deepest part of the cave.

Both stood before the shattered, petrified body of an Ape Demon Corpse, their faces displaying surprise.

"This Uncle-Master Ancestor, it hasn’t been shattered long."

Hou Shuwen examined it carefully, "And this, this seems to be a corpse, not a sculpture...."

"With such a large body, it is very likely a Demon Corpse."

Xiao Wendao said solemnly.

Although he did not know why the predecessor smashed it?

But, combined with the roar that appeared in his mind earlier, it was very likely related to this petrified Ape Demon Corpse.

"Demon?"

Hou Shuwen’s face was full of shock, "Uncle-Master Ancestor, could this be a cave dwelling of demons?"

"Yes, it’s very likely."

Xiao Wendao nodded, "Let’s first thoroughly disperse the poison fog, then allow people to enter and completely clean up this cave dwelling."

"Uncle-Master Ancestor, how did this demon cave dwelling suddenly get broken into?"

Hou Shuwen could not help but ask.

Combining the abnormal behavior of his Uncle-Master Ancestor over the past half-month, he always felt that his Uncle-Master Ancestor was hiding something from him.

"Now that you have become a Heavenly Person, it’s time for you to know some real secrets of our Divine Sword Sect."

Xiao Wendao said with a serious expression.

"Real secrets?"

Hou Shuwen was greatly shocked.

He was originally the Guify Peak Master and had become a Heavenly Person, arguably one of the top figures in the Divine Sword Sect; what real secrets could there be that he didn’t know?

"In fact, our Divine Sword Sect has a true old ancestor."

Xiao Wendao said mysteriously and solemnly through Sound Transmission into Secrets.

"What?"

Hou Shuwen couldn’t help exclaiming, "Old Ancestor...I, I didn’t know."

"Shh!"

Xiao Wendao quickly waved his hands, "Quiet! Speak through Sound Transmission into Secrets, be sure not to leak this."

"Yes, Uncle-Master Ancestor."

Hou Shuwen promptly replied.

"You just need to know, we have at least a top-level Heavenly Person as our Old Ancestor...."

Xiao Wendao said sternly.

"Uncle-Master Ancestor, really, really a top-level Heavenly Person?"

Hou Shuwen’s voice trembled.

"I said at least..."

Xiao Wendao spoke indifferently, "Without this Old Ancestor, I would have died twice by now. Do you really think Chen Ao of Xuanming Sect, Master Yang Mei of Ziwei Sect, Han Tianbao of Luo Ning Mansion were killed by me?"

"Uh..."

Hou Shuwen’s eyes widened.

"Ah, it was all the Old Ancestor’s doing, including the decimated Martial Arts Army of Ning Prince Mansion in Tianzhi Mountains, it was also the hand of Old Ancestor, otherwise our Divine Sword Sect would have been wiped out in that attack."

Xiao Wendao sighed.

Hou Shuwen was hearing such significant secrets for the first time; it turned out that there had always been a powerful Old Ancestor silently protecting the Divine Sword Sect.

"So, you should know who broke the Array of this cave dwelling, right?"

Xiao Wendao smiled.

"So our Divine Sword Sect actually had such a powerful Old Ancestor..."

Hou Shuwen was so moved that he almost wanted to cry.

"Regarding the existence of the Old Ancestor, do not divulge it to anyone; this is the highest secret of our Divine Sword Sect."

Xiao Wendao said solemnly.

"Uncle-Master Ancestor, rest assured, I will definitely keep this secret."

Hou Shuwen nodded.

Such a hidden Old Ancestor was truly the real trump card of the Divine Sword Sect.
