358: Elders of the ancestral temple

After leaving the gathering hall, Wu Ning parted ways with God Xi and flew alone towards the Divine Palace where the Ancestor Court members resided, at the mountainside of the Divine Mountain.

Although he wasn't clear about the exact location, as a Celestial Sovereign, the vast and immense Tongtian Divine Mountain was but a flick of his wrist in his eyes.

Finding the Ancestor Court's residence was naturally not a difficult task.

His gaze pierced through the endless space spanning tens of billions of light-years, and Wu Ning quickly pinpointed his destination at the mountainside.

Then, his figure flickered, and with a single teleportation, he arrived directly in front of the Divine Palace where the Ancestor Court members were located.

He had no intention of concealing his whereabouts, and the people inside the Divine Palace quickly discovered his presence.

"So, it's Dao Child of the Wu Clan who has arrived, please come in."

After Night Dust realized the visitor was Wu Ning, he immediately appeared and invited him inside.

Wu Ning greeted him and followed him into the Divine Palace, going straight to the main hall under his guidance.

Almost as soon as Wu Ning stepped into the main hall, three Ancestor Court Elders immediately appeared.

Night Dust actively introduced Wu Ning to them.

Among the three Elders, the leading middle-aged man was named Fei Qing, titled Void Profound Dao Lord, a top Great Perfection Dao Lord.

Another middle-aged man was named Jiang Yutang, and the last Elder was named Liu Zheng.

These two were also Great Perfection Dao Lords, but their strength was far inferior to Fei Qing's, belonging to the lower-middle tier among powerhouses at the Great Perfection Dao Lord level.

At this moment, all three of them curiously sized up Wu Ning.

They had heard countless times about the fame and deeds of this Human Race's most renowned Supreme Prodigy in recent years, but it was their first time seeing the Immortal Master in person.

They were extremely curious.

Especially after just hearing Night Dust's report about what happened at the Prodigy gathering, learning that Wu Ning had easily and severely wounded a Young Dao Venerable of the Asura God Clan with just a glance, their curiosity intensified.

Upon closer inspection, they found the person before them to be handsome and dignified, with sword-like brows and starry eyes, an extraordinary demeanor, and a transcendent aura, exuding a calm indifference that seemed unperturbed by anything.

His aura was even hazy and illusory.

With just one glance, they felt that this person was truly extraordinary!

However, he was far from the image they had envisioned in their minds, lacking the characteristic arrogance and wildness of a young Prodigy, and instead possessing a more serene and ethereal Immortal Qi.

He was even more vastly different from his rumored image of being arrogant, domineering, and ruthless in his actions.

"Junior greets the three Elders!"

Wu Ning bowed in greeting.

He had always held reverence for the Elders of the Ancestor Court, especially since these three Elders had shown special concern for his safety.

"Young friend, there's no need for such formality, please sit and speak."

Fei Qing smiled and waved his hand, appearing very amiable.

The other two Elders also smiled, not putting on any airs of Senior experts.

After all, in the myriad heavens, strength was ultimately revered.

Although they were countless billions of years older, Wu Ning was already a Dao Lord level powerhouse, and thus on the same level as them.

Moreover, with the talent Wu Ning had displayed, it would likely not take too long for his cultivation to catch up to or even surpass theirs.

Putting on airs now would only be asking for trouble.

"Indeed, seeing is believing. For the Human Race of the myriad heavens to produce a figure like you, it seems our Human Race is destined to prosper!"

"Haha, our Human Race is naturally eternal and indestructible..."

After Wu Ning sat down, the three began to exchange pleasantries with him.

Night Dust sat beside them, and even he, a top-ranked Supreme Prodigy of the Human Race, couldn't interject a word at this moment.

After a long while.

Fei Qing finally began to talk about serious matters, saying to Wu Ning, "As the old saying goes, 'a tall tree catches the wind.' Your current prominence will surely attract the covetous gazes of many powerful alien races.

You should still be cautious when traveling outside."

He knew that powerhouses could not grow up in a comfortable environment, so he did not advise Wu Ning to stay safely within the Human Race's territory and Cultivate diligently in the future.

To become a Supreme powerhouse in the myriad heavens, experiencing various difficulties and tribulations was indispensable.

Wu Ning nodded lightly, "Elder, rest assured, I am always cautious when traveling outside. I also have life-saving trump cards bestowed by the Old Ancestor of our clan, so even if I encounter the top Celestial Sovereign of an alien race, I can retreat safely."

Fei Qing was not surprised.

With such a Supreme Prodigy emerging from the Wu Clan, they would naturally protect him well, and it was perfectly normal to provide him with various powerful trump cards for self-preservation.

Moreover, as a core Elder of the Ancestor Court, he was also aware that the Wu Clan had a Supreme existence behind them.

With such an existence as a backer, it was not strange to possess items capable of dealing with top Celestial Sovereigns.

However, he still earnestly admonished, "Even with trump cards, you must not be careless. Alien races are not easy to deal with. If they intend to set up a killing trap for you, they will certainly consider all kinds of situations."

"According to our estimates, they are very likely to act when you leave the Tianxu God Realm this time.

For safety's sake, you should leave with us this time. At that time, a Celestial Sovereign from the Ancestor Court will come to meet us."

Wu Ning shook his head slightly, "No, I came to Tian Xu Divine Kingdom this time to Cultivate in a Secret Realm of the God Race, and I don't know how long it will take."

Upon hearing this, Fei Qing no longer insisted.

After all, for powerhouses of their level, Cultivation often started at tens of thousands of years.

Millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years were normal, and they couldn't specifically wait for Wu Ning to finish his seclusion in the God Race.

However, he was surprised that Wu Ning could Cultivate in the God Race's Secret Realm, and then immediately understood when he thought of the rumors about him and that Goddess during this period.

Wu Ning did not stay here for too long.

After about an hour, he stood up and took his leave.

"Hmm?"

As soon as he stepped out of the Divine Palace, Wu Ning immediately sensed several prying Divine Thoughts, all very strong, presumably from several Great Perfection Dao Lords.

Wu Ning's eyebrows twitched slightly, and with a sweep of his indestructible Divine Thought, the sources of these Divine Thoughts instantly had nowhere to hide.

Among them, two came from powerhouses of the Asura God Clan, one from a Demon Race powerhouse, one from a Dragon Clan powerhouse, and an even more subtle Divine Thought came from a God Race powerhouse.

Wu Ning paused in place for a moment, and seeing no movement from them, he ignored them and directly flashed back to God Xi's Goddess Palace.

"Heh, these boorish Asura Clan members, to actually be able to hold back from acting, that's truly rare!"

The Demon Race powerhouse laughed coldly.

He had originally thought he could watch a good show, but he didn't expect the Asura Clan guys to not even let out a fart.

He didn't believe that those brainless Asura Clan members would still talk about martial ethics, etiquette, or the demeanor of a powerhouse, considering their status and not acting against a Junior.

No movement now could only mean they were brewing some plan.

A faint glint immediately flashed in his eyes.

This matter could be exploited.

It would be a waste not to use the Asura Clan as a ready-made blade.

Thinking of this, he immediately flew towards the Divine Palace where the Asura God Clan resided, preparing to "cooperate" with these boors.
