Chapter 901 330: Burial Sea, Holy Temple Ancestor
Outside of the Great Universe, there are Three Thousand Yanfu, but the number "Three Thousand" is not a fixed number, it's ever-changing as plane worlds constantly emerge and perish.Let's not talk about newborn worlds.
Those worlds that are decayed, destroyed, or swallowed by the Nether Sea, except for those that have completely vanished, almost all "sink" into the abyss known as the Burial Sea.
Even if a plane world is engulfed by the Nether Sea, it often leaves behind "remnants."
For example, the Houtu Universe, which was as renowned as the Emperor Heaven Universe in the past, was completely obliterated under the invasion of the Nether Sea, yet some fragments have sunken to the bottom of the Burial Sea.
This place is referred to as "Two No-Control," meaning the River of Time and the River of Destiny do not pass through here.
Anything that falls here becomes eternally frozen.
Even the Nether Sea discards this place like an old shoe.
Over the years, many have attempted to retrieve something from the Burial Sea, and the most significant find recorded is the "Holy Temple."
Unlike other True Saint Dojos, the Holy Temple was not initially established by a True Saint with a Taoist inheritance, but its predecessors dug out an ancient God of True Saint level from the remains in the Burial Sea.
After that, in their temple, on the divine platforms of various Gods, they rebuilt the highest divine platform and enshrined this ancient God upon it.
This ancient being, claiming to live anew through the hands of the Holy Temple, casually sat on the temple platform, enjoyed the offerings, and titled themselves "Holy Master," even reversing a section of the River of Time, becoming the ancestor in all regards to the Holy Temple.
Their emergence boosted the Holy Temple to stand shoulder to shoulder with various True Saint Dojos.
Simultaneously, it triggered a wave of "relic exploration" across worlds.
After all, if even a True Saint can be dug up, what can't be unearthed?
...
Luofu Realm, Holy Temple.
In the Holy Palace situated at a high place.
A pair of senior and junior brothers sit facing each other.
"A piece of good news and a piece of bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" The junior brother said heavily.
Glancing at the junior brother in charge of expanding the Great Universe, the Holy Temple's current Acting Taoist Master, Lu Qingyuan, sighed and said:
"Start with the bad news."
"The bad news is our personnel sent to expand the Great Universe have all been captured. Currently, the Taiyin Divine Palace refuses to make exchanges with us, bluntly stating that if we continue to send people to the Seventh Ascension Platform, those disciples will be blood sacrificed to the Gods of Nether Ruins."
Bai Bushu spoke with great gravity.
Lu Qingyuan raised an eyebrow, confirmed multiple times: "Our dispatched disciples were all captured by the Taiyin Divine Palace? Isn't this generation of Taiyin Divine Palace without Divine Prohibition? Did the Heavenly Tree Dynasty expend their resources? Do they truly think the Taiyin Divine Palace can protect them in the future?"
"It was the Heavenly Person." Bai Bushu corrected him, "The remaining Heart Image and Chains Martial Artists were deemed unworthy."
Lu Qingyuan was silent for a moment, then said: "You better give me good news to counterbalance this."
Bai Bushu earnestly said: "The good news is the Heaven and Earth Mystic Sect was also captured and before us."
Lu Qingyuan was silent again for a moment, sighed: "Have we fallen to the point of measuring misery?"
"Everyone's the same, there's no fear of anyone sneaking ahead." Bai Bushu comforted his senior brother.
Lu Qingyuan coldly snorted: "All the same? The Fourth and Sixth Ascension Platforms have already fallen into the hands of the Five Virtues Palace and Yin Yang Dao Palace! Is this what you call all the same?"
Bai Bushu retorted irritably: "Senior brother, don't you know? They've got Divine Prohibition, what do we have? Holy Weapon Projection? Or Return to Origin Array? Stuff everyone has, essentially amounts to nothing."
At this point, he slammed the table, stood up angrily, and shouted:
"My apprentices initially made great connections, one Divine Medicine could have exchanged for the Yanhuang Federation's Divine Prohibition to clear the obstacles at the Seventh Ascension Platform for us, but when they eagerly returned to report the good news, what did you say then?"
"Explain to me what 'doesn't matter that one' means?!"
Seeing his junior brother dare slam the table and even recall past grievances, Lu Qingyuan became embarrassed and enraged:
"If you have the guts, go and shout at the ancestor in the temple!"
"I will!" Bai Bushu angrily left the palace with a flick of his sleeve.
As soon as his left foot crossed the palace door, the anger on his face vanished instantly and he stealthily slipped away.
He's not foolish. Showing attitude to his senior brother is one thing, but doing the same to the ancestor in the temple? That's asking for trouble.
Especially since the ancestor in the temple is the real deal.
As for the Seventh Ascension Platform, as long as it's not his responsibility, if it does fall on him, then past grievances will surface, no one will have it easy!
Bai Bushu decided to seek out the younger Bai Yuan who had established connections with the Yanhuang Federation, and left Luofu Realm in one step.
After him.
Lu Qingyuan stepped out of the palace, watching where Bai Bushu disappeared, coldly snorted, running away so fast indeed.
He straightened his attire and entered the Ancestral Temple alone.
In the grand hall, the incense filled the air, hazy; even Lu Qingyuan couldn't see clearly, only vaguely making out a majestic golden figure sitting on the platform.
In the words of this Ancestor Master, this is called a sense of distance.
Without the sense of distance between people, it will be a disaster.
Without the sense of distance between people and Gods, "God" wouldn't exist.
"Ancestor Master, our expansion in the Great Universe suffered calamity, as you anticipated, it isn't going smoothly." Lu Qingyuan lit three sticks of incense, respectfully bowed and said.
Behind the hazy incense, someone responded indifferently, voice lofty:
"Qingyuan, where did the problem arise?"
Only then did Lu Qingyuan slightly frown, realizing that he had been interrupted by that troublesome junior brother earlier, still unclear about the root of the matter.
