Chapter 1304: Chapter 841: Recruiting Ancestral Dao Realm Followers (Part 2)

The half-step Ancestral Dao Realm expert of the Shadow Dao Race, Shadowless.

The half-step Ancestral Dao Realm expert of the One Dao Race, In a Single Thought.

The half-step Ancestral Dao Realm expert of the Demon Dao Race, Demon Sha Domain.

...

In the Edge Corner Airspace, the topic most discussed daily is the few geniuses on the Heaven and Earth Ranking.

But in reality, the truly powerful experts remain hidden from the world.

For the past hundred thousand years, the Dao Palace has been dominant, gathering all the experts of the Ancestral Dao Realm.

However, apart from the Dao Palace, there are also countless races where numerous old monsters, with one foot in the Ancestral Dao Realm, hide away in seclusion and cultivate.

These half-step Ancestral Dao Realm experts, who are in seclusion, sometimes do not show up for thousands of years. Those who do appear are the geniuses on the Heaven and Earth Ranking, so they have become forgotten beings.

The Dao Palace does not pay much attention to these people, because the difference between the half-step Ancestral Dao and the true Ancestral Dao Realm is like heaven and earth.

Ten Ancestral Dao Realm experts can easily wipe out all half-step Ancestral Dao Realm in the myriad races!

The Dao Palace does not think these half-step Ancestral Dao Realm can cause any waves.

However, they overlooked one person.

That is a mysterious young man who can change the situation.

In just four months, numerous old monsters who had been hidden from the world were almost all approached by a mysterious youth. To these experts who have been cultivating for a long time without breaking through to the Ancestral Dao Realm, this mysterious youth is like an ancient god, guiding them towards the breakthrough to Ancestral Dao.

In the Edge Corner Airspace, Ancestral Dao Realm experts have quietly emerged one after another.

But even though these experts have broken through to the Ancestral Dao Realm, they did not publicize it loudly. Some did not even tell their own clansmen, keeping the information tightly sealed, without making any waves.

This is because they all followed the young man’s will, acting low-key, conserving energy, and waiting for the right moment.

In the four-month span, all the races in the Edge Corner Airspace continued to argue endlessly over the seven Dao Stones.

On the surface, everything seemed no different from before, but beneath the surface, dark currents were continually surging.

——

"Xiaohei, how many now?" Xiang Beifei asked.

"Three hundred and nineteen." Xiaohei sat on the Mustard Seed in Palm.

"It’s really strange, we never knew there were so many late-phase Inquiring Dao experts before." Erha lay comfortably on the Mustard Seed in Palm, turning over.

"People have reached the late Inquiring Dao phase, so of course, they’d go into seclusion to cultivate and reach the Ancestral Dao Realm sooner, who has the time to wander around? It’s just us who are idle." Youmong said, chewing on a lollipop.

"It’s you who’s idle, we’re busy to death." Erha said.

"Busy my ass, all you do is make snide remarks!" Youmong retorted.

"I have to create some momentum on the side, don’t I?" Erha hummed.

"Speaking of which, there are a lot of Ancestral Dao Realm experts in the Dao Palace too." Youmong said.

In the past hundred thousand years, the Dao Palace has nurtured and recruited at least a hundred Ancestral Dao Realm experts according to the information collected by Ge Hengzi.

The Ancestral Dao Realm is already an extremely difficult realm to break through. The Houtu Tribe won the battle a hundred thousand years ago, under their control were most of the ancestral artifacts, including the Houtu Dao they cultivated, and with the effort of the entire tribe, producing a hundred Ancestral Dao Realm experts in a hundred thousand years was not too difficult.

However, late-stage Inquiring Dao realm experts are simpler compared to the Ancestral Dao Realm, and their numbers are certainly greater!

Currently, Xiang Beifei has found only three hundred and nineteen old monsters at the half-step Ancestral Dao Realm.

But this also means that currently, under Xiang Beifei’s guidance, he has three hundred and nineteen Ancestral Dao beginners under his command!

And they all follow his orders!

This is a massive force!

"Now that we have three hundred and nineteen Ancestral Dao Realm enforcers, along with Thunder and Hai Fuyu, can we confront the Dao Palace?" Erha asked eagerly.

"Not yet."

Xiang Beifei shook his head.

"Why not?"

"You fool, our followers are only at the initial Ancestral Dao Realm, while the Dao Palace has a bunch in the late Ancestral Dao Realm. If we go now, it’s certain death." Xiaohei said.

"But we outnumber them! We can just wear them out to death."

"Numbers don’t matter; they should currently have more ancestral artifacts than us. Ancestral artifacts are the key." Xiang Beifei said.

The heavenly power sealed in the ancestral artifacts determines whether a race can exist.

Just look at the Giant Spirit Race.

The old Giant Spirit, extremely powerful, was still restrained by ancestral artifacts. The Dao Palace controls many ancestral artifacts, potentially holding the lifeline of some races, but since those races pose no threat, they allow them to exist.

However, if war breaks out, the Dao Palace is highly likely to use ancestral artifacts to wipe out several related races from the Edge Corner Airspace!

"If going to war with the Dao Palace means annihilation, then what’s the point of recruiting followers?" Erha muttered.

Xiang Beifei pondered for a moment and said, "Not necessarily, we just need to find some heavenly paths that protect the existence of races."

The Giant Spirit Dao was sealed, but the Giant Spirit Race can still survive in the Bone Mountain Desert Stone Cave region. Despite the limitations, at least they weren’t extinct.

This indicates that there must be a heavenly path in this world that could protect all races from being wiped out by heaven.

Xiang Beifei’s task is to find this heavenly path!

"Now that all seventy-nine ancestral artifact fragments are gathered, it’s time to return to Common Valley once more."

With the help of the Heavenly Dao Map, finding ancestral artifact fragments isn’t difficult. Next, the task is to retrieve those sealed ancestral artifacts in Common Valley.

This is not a simple task because the Dao Palace still has people guarding the ancestral artifacts in Common Valley!

——

Returning to Common Valley, a vast and primitive aura was coming towards them.

This place was originally an ancient battlefield, full of hidden killing intent. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Xiang Beifei concealed his form, arriving near the first ancestral artifact.

It was that long knife with a broken handle!

The knife handle fragment was securely sealed in the Spirit Gathering Book by him, forcefully suppressing its aura, preventing it from merging with the long knife or letting the long knife ancestral artifact sense its fragment was nearby.

Because Xiang Beifei knew very well what would happen if the ancestral artifact was reassembled.

The commotion it causes would be enormous, truly earth-shattering.

The previous time the Thunder Bone ancestral artifact was snatched away, out of the Dao Palace’s control, served as a warning to the Dao Palace, leading them to reinforce their vigilance in Common Valley. Any anomaly with the ancestral artifacts would certainly cause a large group of Ancestral Dao Realm experts to rush out at once!

Xiaohei’s silhouette flickered across the sky and landed on Xiang Beifei’s shoulder.

"I just scouted around; thirty miles to the left there’s an Ancestral Dao mid-stage expert meditating, and ninety miles to the right there’s two Ancestral Dao beginners patrolling." Xiaohei said.

"What do we do now? Let the ancestral artifacts merge, and we’ll surely have to face the attacks of those experts, maybe even draw in Ancestral Dao later-stage experts. But without merging, we can’t take these ancestral artifacts." Youmong said.

This situation is indeed tricky.

Xiang Beifei has quite a few powerful ancestral artifacts in hand too. For instance, he currently has four bricks, which can temporarily alter the flow of time, slowing it down.

But if the four bricks appear, they are in opposition to the long knife, only causing a bigger disturbance as they fight.

"Can’t we launch a preemptive strike, take out one or two Ancestral Dao experts?" Erha suggested.

"It’s not like last time." Xiaohei said.

Whoosh!

As they were discussing, a powerful Divine Sense swept over, encompassing even the ground they were standing on.

An Ancestral Dao later-stage Divine Sense!

This Divine Sense patrolled every corner of the area, even a grain of sand’s movement was within its surveillance range, leaving no place to hide undetected.

Only someone controlling Yin and Yang source energy like Xiang Beifei had a chance.

However, this Divine Sense did not last long. About a second later, it receded like the tide, patrolling elsewhere.

The few uneasy ones here finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Now you understand why we can’t act rashly?" Xiaohei shot a sideways glance at Erha.

"Does that mean we just sit here with our thumbs up after gathering the ancestral artifact pieces?" Erha asked.

Youmong asked, "Feifei, do you have any good ideas?"

Xiang Beifei kept pondering, thinking for a long time before saying, "Create a diversion."
