21: Ancestral Land Opening
“I object!”
“I object too!”
Jiang Yuhao could suppress others, but he couldn't make Chu Qing and Huo Cang, who were also Dao Children, submit.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Qing and Huo Cang leaped out, standing to Jiang Yuhao’s left and right, their eyes burning with Battle Intent.
Boom!
Jiang Yuhao cast an indifferent glance at the two in front of him, then took a step forward. Immediately, a terrifying spatial fluctuation spread rapidly, directly forcing Chu Qing and Huo Cang back several feet. He then spoke coldly:
“You two are not qualified enough to object!”
“Hiss~”
Seeing Jiang Yuhao’s overwhelming power, repelling two Dao Children with a single blow, all the Disciples couldn't help but gasp.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chu Qing and Huo Cang were forced back by Jiang Yuhao’s kick, feeling a loss of face. They immediately unleashed their spiritual power, intending to engage him in a true decisive battle.
Although Jiang Yuhao’s Realm was a level higher than theirs, Chu Qing possessed the Tian Dao Spirit Body and Huo Cang had the Heavenly Eye. If it came to a life-and-death struggle, they were not afraid of Jiang Yuhao.
“Enough!”
But just then, Great Elder Gu Jianghe stopped their petty squabble.
“The Ancestral Land is about to open. If you wish to contend, then compete in the Ancestral Land trial!”
All four Dao Children were immensely talented individuals, destined to become the pillars of the Saint Essence Sect in the future. The Grand Elder naturally did not wish to see them turn on each other for the position of Young Sect Master.
The Grand Elder clearly held great prestige. After he spoke, Jiang Yuhao, Chu Qing, and Huo Cang wisely ceased their conflict.
“Out of consideration for our shared Sect, I advise you, do not block my path in the Ancestral Land, or don’t blame me for being impolite!”
With that, Jiang Yuhao rode his White Dragon and soared into the sky, maintaining an air of absolute dominance from beginning to end, clearly not putting the other three Dao Children in his eyes.
“Arrogant fellow!”
“Once we enter the Ancestral Land, I must meet this Senior Brother!”
Chu Qing and Huo Cang were also proud individuals. How could they easily let go of being underestimated by Jiang Yuhao?
The two had already made up their minds: once they entered the Ancestral Land, they would deal with Jiang Yuhao first, no matter what!
Seeing the intense rivalry among the four Dao Children, the Elders present, though somewhat troubled, felt even more anticipation.
They eagerly wondered which of this generation’s four Dao Children would emerge superior.
Would it be Chu Qing, the Tian Dao Spirit Body with unparalleled blade techniques?
Or Huo Cang, who possessed the Heavenly Eye?
Or perhaps Jiang Yuhao, who had a strong legendary aura, having been undefeated among the young generation of the Eastern Wilderness twenty years ago?
Or even Lin Yang, the youngest but infinitely potential Awakener of the Sacred Body?
Ultimately, who would claim the position of Young Sect Master?
The entire Saint Essence Sect, from top to bottom, was already a little impatient...
-----------------
Half an hour later.
Behind the Sect mountain.
In front of a massive, ancient stone gate.
Lin Yang, Jiang Yuhao, Chu Qing, Huo Cang, hundreds of Disciples at the Martial King Realm and above, as well as the Sect Master and many Elders, were all gathered here.
“I will reiterate one last time: although the Ancestral Land is where our Sect’s Ancestral Masters slumber, it is also an ancient Seal Land, where countless demonic creatures have been born.”
“Once you enter the Ancestral Land, you will have the Opportunity to obtain the Legacy of our Ancestral Masters, but you also risk being devoured by demonic creatures.”
“Therefore, when Disciples enter the Ancestral Land to seek Opportunity, you must act cautiously. If a situation becomes untenable, prioritize your own safety. Never act impulsively!”
Sect Master Mu Yunxi stood at the forefront, earnestly admonishing the many Disciples present, her gaze lingering on Lin Yang for a moment without a trace.
Although everyone present was a Saint Essence Sect Disciple, only Lin Yang was her Personal Disciple.
Moreover, after those unspeakable and shameful incidents occurred unexpectedly in the Sacred Pool, she found herself, for some unknown reason, growing increasingly concerned about this Disciple.
In recent times, Lin Yang’s face would occasionally appear in her mind, leading her to recall the events of that day.
“We will abide by the Sect Master’s instructions!”
The unified shouts of the Disciples instantly pulled Mu Yunxi’s somewhat wandering thoughts back.
She glanced at the crowd before her, then lightly nodded her head. Together with the Elders present, she poured immense energy into the stone gate behind them.
Before long, the stone gate glowed, forming a massive spatial vortex.
“The Ancestral Land will be open for ten days. After ten days, you must all return to the initial entry point so that we can safely bring you back.”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
However, before Mu Yunxi could finish speaking, Dao Children Chu Qing and Huo Cang impatiently rushed in first.
Jiang Yuhao followed closely behind.
Lin Yang leisurely brought up the rear.
After all four Dao Children and a hundred Disciples had entered the Ancestral Land, Mu Yunxi and the others slowly lowered their hands.
With the cessation of energy infusion, the spatial vortex within the stone gate slowly closed.
However, considering that only a select few elite Disciples were qualified to enter the Ancestral Land for trials, most Sect Disciples remained outside.
Therefore, Mu Yunxi thoughtfully waved her jade hand, conjuring a massive light screen in mid-air, clearly projecting the scenes within the Ancestral Land onto it for other Disciples within the Sect to observe.
“Now, let’s see who among them can outshine the rest in the Ancestral Land…”
-----------------
Whoosh!
The moment they stepped through the stone gate, Lin Yang and the others felt a shift in the surrounding space.
By the time everything stabilized, everyone had arrived in a primeval mountain range.
Looking around, all they saw were towering mountains and steep ridges, with verdant peaks winding like Dragon spines, stretching as far as the eye could see without end.
“I’ve long heard that our Saint Essence Sect’s Ancestral Land is located within an independent Small World, but I never imagined this Small World’s space would be so vast!”
Many Disciples were entering the Ancestral Land for the first time, and couldn't help but exclaim in wonder.
Whoosh!
While most people were surveying this strange and vast new world, a figure suddenly shot up from the ground, gracefully treading the Void Realm, and streaked towards the end of the mountain range.
It was Jiang Yuhao.
As the most senior Dao Child, unlike others, this was not his first time entering the Ancestral Land.
“Follow him! He definitely knows where the Ancestral Masters’ Legacy is located!”
Chu Qing and Huo Cang exchanged glances, both coincidentally choosing to charge out, pursuing Jiang Yuhao.
Besides them, many other Disciples had the same idea, wanting to follow closely behind Jiang Yuhao to see if they could get a share.
However, the leader of the four Dao Children was not famous for nothing. Moreover, Jiang Yuhao was the only Martial Ancestor among the many Disciples present. His speed was incredibly fast, and he quickly left all the other Disciples, except Chu Qing and Huo Cang, far behind.
Even Chu Qing and Huo Cang, despite exerting their full strength, could only barely keep up with Jiang Yuhao’s figure, struggling to close the distance between them.
While many Disciples were chasing Jiang Yuhao’s retreating figure, Lin Yang, after taking a deep look at the departing figures of Jiang Yuhao and the others, turned and swiftly moved in the opposite direction from Jiang Yuhao…
