288: The ancestors will die too.

Although some people did not know exactly what had happened, everyone understood that a powerhouse even more terrifying than the former Pan God had been born!

"This is a good thing for us little people; at least we don't have to worry about the Primal Devil devouring the entire Divine Realm!"

As for status, little people have never had any status. They didn't have it before, and they won't have it in the future. This is the reality of this world!

Therefore, no matter how the status of those powerhouses changes, they remain at the very bottom!

The vicinity of Cang Mountain had returned to calm. Apart from quite a few Martial Artists remaining around the Combat Power Ranking, there was no one left around the massive crater created by the corpse.

The Original Ancestor returned to the Soul Clan, and the other factions also left, except for the Celestial Craft Pavilion, which had been wiped out!

The Soul Clan was now the undisputed number one clan in the Divine Realm. At this moment, the Soul Clan was receiving the worship of the myriad clans of the Divine Realm. Inside the Family, guests arrived in an endless stream, sounds of congratulations were incessant, and various rare treasures that were usually hard to come by were being offered to the Soul Clan with both hands.

"Old man, we don't have any friendship with the Soul Clan, so why are we here to give gifts?" Song Yan asked, puzzled.

Moreover, the guests here were as numerous as crucian carp crossing the river; who could even remember them!

"Hehe, the Soul Clan is powerful now; they are the undisputed strongest in the Divine Realm!"

"Now that everyone is here to congratulate them, we might not be remembered if we come, but if we don't come, it's possible we'll be targeted by them!"

"What is this called? This is called worldly wisdom!"

Shen Ji Zi shook his head, especially regarding those shameless old things from the Soul Clan.

"The Soul Clan is very strong, but our Tianji Clan is not weak either. If it really comes to it, we can just call those Old Ancestors over..."

"Shut up!" Shen Ji Zi's expression suddenly turned stern, and he glared: "If you dare mention the Family one more time, I will immediately send you back to the clan grounds, and you will never be allowed to enter here for the rest of your life!"

Seeing the old man's face completely change, Song Yan hurriedly shut his mouth.

Their Tianji Clan's clan grounds only offered one chance in a lifetime to come out. If one went back in, they would never be able to come out again!

However, those of them who were just delivering gifts didn't even have the qualifications to see the Original Ancestor; after all, they were no longer people on the same level!

"Are there really no clues at all?" The Original Ancestor asked, frowning as he sat cross-legged on a prayer mat. So many of their Soul Clan's Old Ancestors had actually died without even a trace left behind. If he hadn't controlled the god corpse in time, the Soul Clan's strength would have suffered a serious blow.

Therefore, this matter must be thoroughly investigated, and when the time comes, the mastermind behind it must be torn to shreds!

The Soul Clan Leader standing beside him bowed and replied: "Yes, Old Ancestor. We have investigated those Martial Artists who escaped from the upper world, and they truly do not know who was the one who acted!"

"Within the heavens, the only ones capable of reaching that level are the Primal Devil and that small tower!"

"If it were the Primal Devil, his target should be the god corpse. But that small tower... we have no grudges with it, so there's no reason for it to attack us for no reason!"

"However, the target is ultimately between these two. Once I am completely accustomed to controlling this god corpse, I will go and suppress them!"

One of the Original Ancestor's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. Right now, he still couldn't fully control this god corpse; the god corpse was too strong, and his Divine Soul was somewhat unable to control it.

Moreover, controlling this body for a long time made his Divine Soul feel extremely fatigued.

After delivering the gifts and getting far away from the Soul Clan's clan grounds, Shen Ji Zi shook his head and sighed: "Even if you brought the Old Ancestors here, so what?"

"With their cultivation, what could they do? Throw their lives away?"

"You must know that the Original Ancestor's current strength is probably something that even the former Pan God would not be a match for, let alone those Old Ancestors!"

"However, I have already divined that this generation seems to have infinite possibilities. If our clan handles it well, in the future, we might truly be able to leave the heavens!"

"Ah? Old man, you even divined this?" Song Yan was shocked. This had been their Tianji Clan's goal since ancient times!

When the Pan God left back then, their clan had also divined whether they should follow him, but the result they obtained was nine deaths and one life. This did not align with the so-called "Dao of Survival" of their Tianji Clan's Old Ancestors, so they had not left back then.

To think that the old man had actually divined it now! Song Yan widened his eyes and looked at his 'turtle grandfather'. Was his art of destiny really that formidable?

Usually, he only saw him spitting blood mouthful by mouthful whenever he performed divination, yet at critical moments, he could even divine something like this!

"Hmph, it definitely won't be wrong!"

"Do you think I'm like you! You brushed shoulders with Senior and didn't sense anything, yet you still have the nerve to call yourself Tianji Zi?"

"Don't embarrass our Tianji Clan anymore!" Shen Ji Zi coldly snorted at Song Yan.

"Brushed shoulders?"

"Could it be that I have met the Senior you speak of?"

"That's impossible, right? I haven't seen anyone particularly powerful!"

"Hiss, old man, you aren't talking about the Original Ancestor of the Soul Clan, are you?"

Song Yan's eyes widened. Defecting to the Original Ancestor? That probably wouldn't be appropriate, right?

You old thing look like an insidious and cunning person; if the other party found out about the secrets of their Tianji Clan, they would definitely have ulterior motives!

This is very inconsistent with the "Dao of Survival" of those Old Ancestors!

"Bah! What is the Original Ancestor? He occupied someone else's corpse; although he looks powerful now, in the near future, he will also die!"

"What? The Original Ancestor will also die?" Song Yan was shocked once again. The Original Ancestor was so powerful, how could he die?

Then he asked somewhat suspiciously: "Old man, our Tianji Clan's divination of the Heavenly Secrets is no bluff!"

"With your strength, how could you possibly divine the Original Ancestor?"

Usually, when divining those of the same Realm, it's possible to suffer a backlash. Divining such a powerhouse would surely lead to suffering a backlash until one spits blood and dies!

"I'll knock you to death, you turtle grandson!" Shen Ji Zi took out his large smoking pipe and prepared to knock him, but he still couldn't bring himself to do it.

"I divined the Original Ancestor; what does that have to do with his Physical Body?"

"Anyway, I saw it. In the future, one day, the Original Ancestor will have his Divine Soul annihilated by someone with a single finger and die!"

"As for you, believe it or not, time will prove everything anyway!" Shen Ji Zi held the smoking pipe in his mouth and started puffing.

"Since you have already divined hope, what do we do now?"

"Return to the clan grounds? Or?"

"No, wait a little longer!"

"I want to have another close-range contact with Senior, and only after confirming it repeatedly will I return to the clan grounds!" Shen Ji Zi said.

"Old man, take me to see Senior, okay?" Song Yan said excitedly.

"Get lost, you swindling little thing. You even tried to swindle Senior back then. It was only because Senior was magnanimous and didn't hold a grudge that you weren't punished; otherwise, even if those Old Ancestors came out into the world, they wouldn't be able to save you!"

"Still want me to take you to see Senior? You're dreaming!"

"If I let you, you turtle grandson, appear in front of Senior, I'm really afraid that they will glare you to death with one look!"

As he spoke, Shen Ji Zi pointed his smoking pipe at Song Yan again. He remembered this little brat disturbing his attempt to cozy up to a powerful figure, which made him feel a burst of indignation.

Moreover, Shen Ji Zi highly suspected that the previous annihilation of the Soul Clan's Old Ancestors was likely the handiwork of Senior.
