Zhou Qingdao activated the protective array, and the ancestor was within it.
However, no matter how he triggered it, the Zhou Tianzi inside seemed to be unaware.
"Could it be that the ancestor has entered a death seclusion?" a great power speculated.
"Itâs only been a day; even if he intended to enter death seclusion, it wouldnât be possible."
"Then is the ancestor deliberately avoiding us?"
The sixteen people were instantly helpless!
Damn, they truly conceded. Even Zhou Qingdaoâs face was grim. His descendant was here, yet the ancestor wouldnât show up, which was quite a disregard for his descendants.
Zhou Qingdao had no choice but to continuously activate the protective array, whereas the other great powers did not have the courage to do so.
Ripples continuously spread across the protective array, becoming denser and denser.
At present, Zhou Qingdaoâs cultivation was also at the Void Path Realm Perfection, yet triggering this protective array already caused sweat to appear on his forehead.
Finally, after an unknown number of attempts, the protective array finally opened.
A figure walked out from within, though short in stature, yet his aura gave everyone a terrifying feeling as if their throats were being choked.
The elderâs eyes held divine light as he looked at the crowd, as if they had been slashed with a blade.
"I have said that unless someone attacks, do not disturb me. What is your intention now?"
The crowd kneeled down one after another.
The Sect Leader, Zhou Qingdao, immediately relayed everything to Zhou Tianzi.
Upon hearing the cause and effect, it seemed as if stars were falling from Zhou Tianziâs body, and he suddenly became furious.
"It just so happens that I am not in a good mood; itâs been a long time since anyone in the Beixuan Domain has angered me like this!"
"Today, I will use the Infinite Sword Sect as an example, to let all Sects know the consequences of angering my Beixuan Upper Sect!"
"May the ancestor discern clearly!"
The crowd was about to arrange for personnel to follow the ancestor, as the ancestor decided to act against the Infinite Sword Sect. They had to be ready and present a grand formation of the Beixuan Upper Sect.
Just as they were flying out of Zhou Tianziâs seclusion place, the entire protection array of the Beixuan Upper Sect violently trembled.
Everyone was instantly filled with shock and anger. Someone dared to cause trouble at the Beixuan Upper Sect at this time, not seeing that the ancestor had just exited seclusion?
Everyone immediately flew towards the mountain gate.
Zhou Tianzi did not go. Considering his status, it wouldnât be proper for him to rush out like a junior before confirming the visitor; this would appear too unsteady for someone of his standing.
Nonetheless, Zhou Tianziâs expression became immensely cold.
The intensity of the protective arrayâs shaking, could it be that the Celestial Star Upper Sect fellows felt unsatisfied and came knocking again?
If that were the case, it was utterly excessive!
However, as the mountain gate opened.
Appearing before everyone was an unfamiliar elder.
The elderâs attire was rather ancient and worn, as if he had just crawled out of a tomb.
"Who are you?"
The visitor, naturally, was Ning Qi after a disguise.
He was slightly taken aback, seeing people arrive so quickly.
Upon closer inspection, there were over a dozen great powers, and countless true inheritors were on their way.
Ning Qi frowned slightly. Such a formation clearly wasnât something that could be quickly assembled just because he attacked the Beixuan Upper Sectâs protective array.
Gathering so many people, besides dealing with the Infinite Sword Sect, what other matters could warrant such a massive mobilization?
Ning Qi couldnât help but sigh in relief, fortunate to have arrived in time!
"Have you not seen the ancestor and arenât kneeling in welcome?" the elder, in Ning Qiâs guise, said.
The dozen great powers were stunned, "Ancestor?"
This unfamiliar elder claimed to be their ancestor; could he be a madman?
"You madman, if you keep speaking nonsense, donât blame us for chopping you into mincemeat!"
"Have you not all practiced the Void Divine Spirit Refining True Technique that I passed down, yet you know not the source of the technique? Didnât Zhou Tianzi tell you?"
The great powers were once more taken aback.
This unfamiliar elder spoke with great audacity, claiming that the Void Divine Spirit Refining True Technique they practiced was what he taught!
Indeed, they all practiced it, but it all came from Zhou Tianzi, no other person had passed it down.
However, Ning Qi acted directly.
Instantly, a massive Primordial Spirit Slash Blade, forty feet long, condensed out of the void in front of him, rules congregating upon it, one slash sweeping out.
The void shattered immediately, and three great powers unable to react were cut down under the blade in an instant.
The other great powers were shocked; the demise of three great powers wasnât as stunning as this slash, for this was indeed their Beixuan Upper Sectâs art.
More terrifying was the fact that such a massive Primordial Spirit Slash Blade, none of them could wield it, not even the ancestor Zhou Tianzi.
They had practiced the Void Divine Spirit Refining True Technique for a long time, well aware of its power.
The elderâs display was evidently more perfected and refined than theirs, distinctly resembling the true inheritorâs rendition of the art.
Could it be... this person truly was the ancestor who created the Void Divine Spirit Refining True Technique?
A great power tremulously asked, "May I ask for the ancestorâs name, as Zhou Tianzi, our ancestor, has also exited seclusion. We should inform him."
Feigning respect, he subtly indicated to transmit a message for Integration Realm Zhou Tianzi to come out of seclusion, using this to intimidate Ning Qi.
Unexpectedly, Ning Qi stroked his long beard and said:
"My name is Lord Zhanxuan, go and tell Zhou Tianzi, does he still remember urinating in front of my cave abode back then? Now that this ancestor is reborn, shouldnât he come and pay respects?"
