269: Chapter 269 A Hundred Saints Manifest Their Powers, This is a Grace of Rebirth

Phantoms of ancient Saints!

Resonating and manifesting along with the emergence of the truly complete Legacy!

"This... this is... The Hundred Saints Resonating in Unison?! Myriad Daos Paying Homage to the Ancestor?!!"

The Clan Chief, who had just sensed the disturbance and teleported back into the hall in an instant, gazed at the scene before her eyes that she wouldn't have dared to imagine even in her dreams. The moonlight radiance enveloping her body trembled violently, and for the first time, her voice lost its cool composure, filled with extreme shock and disbelief!

The phantom of the Grand Mage suddenly solidified several times over, nearly turning into a physical entity. She looked up at the hundred or so Saint phantoms and the myriad streaks of Holy Light in the sky, her ethereal voice carrying an uncontrollable tremble: "Legacy Holy Light... a hundred paths appearing together... Saint communion... how, how is this possible?!

What... what exactly did he do in there?!"

The Grand Elder slumped directly onto the ground, his old face pale and his lips quivering, unable to utter a single word.

Elder Lan Yi's beautiful eyes widened as she covered her mouth, shocked beyond measure.

Madam Qingli was stunned at first, but then a wave of immense joy and pride flooded over her like a tsunami. Tears fell down her exquisite face, yet she was smiling: "I knew it... I knew Xiao Yuer could do it!

He never disappoints!"

Outside the palace, all the Taihu Clan members who had not yet left were stunned by this celestial phenomenon. They knelt on the ground one after another, prostrating themselves and chanting prayers, thinking that their ancestors had manifested or that the heavens were bestowing a blessing!

"Quick! Open the Legacy Grounds!"

The Clan Chief was the first to recover from the shock. Her voice was hurried, carrying an unprecedented urgency and a hint of... fear? She exchanged a glance with the Grand Mage, and both of them struck at the same time!

Two surges of moonlight Divine Power, as vast as a sea of stars, crashed into the Giant Bronze Gate!

The Nine-Fox Pattern on the giant gate erupted with blinding light, and under the immense force, the doors were forcibly pushed inward!

The Clan Chief and the Grand Mage turned into two streaks of light and instantly rushed inside!

When they entered the Legacy Grounds space and saw the scene before them, even these two supreme beings of the Taihu Clan—who had lived for countless years and seen the world change many times over—stood frozen in place as if struck by a Nine Heavens Heavenly Tribulation lightning bolt, their minds going completely blank!

The previously dim Legacy space was now filled with endless dao rhyme and divine light, looking like a fairyland!

And those hundred originally damaged and dim Legacy saint tablets were now each crystal clear and flowing with radiance. The dao patterns on the tablets were complete, and many new, unfamiliar silver-gray lines had appeared, flowing with a strange spiritual light and filled with brand-new dao rhyme!

Those new patterns fused perfectly with the ancient dao patterns, not only completing all that was missing but also making the dao rhyme emitted by the entire set of Cultivation Techniques several times more exquisite, clear, and powerful than any description of these techniques in their memories!

It was as if these techniques, silent for eons, had not only been repaired but injected with a brand-new Soul, undergoing a fundamental evolution!

In the center of the Forest of Tablets, the youth—covered in dust, his face slightly pale with exhaustion, yet his eyes bright as stars—was slowly withdrawing his finger from the last stone tablet. He turned around and, seeing them burst in, gave a slightly shy and relieved smile.

"Clan Chief, Grand Mage," Xu Ruyu's voice was a bit hoarse, yet clear and calm, "this Junior was fortunate enough to fulfill the mission.

The Cultivation Techniques on these stone tablets... I saw they were quite badly damaged, so I tried to patch them up along the way. In some places, I felt the original logic could be optimized, so I also changed them a bit... I hope I haven't damaged your clan's sacred objects."

Along the way... patched them up?

In passing... changed them a bit?

Looking at the hundred brand-new saint tablets with soaring dao rhyme and feeling the hundred types of Great Dao true intent in the air that were so thick they wouldn't dissipate.

The Clan Chief and the Grand Mage, these two supreme powerhouses standing at the Peak of this world who could decide the fate of billions with a single thought, felt their Dao Hearts shake violently and their Divine Souls tremble!

Completed!

Upgraded!

One hundred ancient Legacies, problems that countless predecessors had failed to solve despite their best efforts, regrets that had plagued the Taihu Clan for eternity...

In just these short three days, they had been not only completely restored by this youth who seemingly only had a Qi Refinement Stage cultivation, but he fucking... fully upgraded and optimized them?!

How is this just passing a trial?

This is simply an unprecedented gift given to the Taihu Clan, enough to allow the entire race to be reborn and their foundation to skyrocket ten million times over!

It is a supreme benevolence!

In comparison, the previous shattering of the spirit testing stone, the disturbance of the Illusory Moon Well, and even the cross-rank challenge in the War Soul Tower all seemed... insignificant!

The Clan Chief's figure, shrouded in moonlight, showed a clear and uncontrollable trembling for the first time.

She looked at Xu Ruyu, at the hundred saint tablets, and then at the Saint phantoms and myriad streaks of Holy Light that had not yet fully dissipated in the sky. A complex emotion—a mix of extreme shock, wild joy, shame, and gratitude—crashed against her Dao Heart like a raging tide.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found her throat dry, momentarily losing her voice.

Finally, this supreme Dominator of the Taihu Clan, under Xu Ruyu's calm gaze and amidst the horrified gasps of the Grand Elder, Lan Yi, Qingli, and others who had rushed in after her and saw the scene, slowly and solemnly bowed deeply to Xu Ruyu.

The phantom of the Grand Mage also bowed slightly.

It was silent, yet heavier than ten thousand jins.

Xu Ruyu looked at them quietly and accepted it calmly.

He knew that from this moment on, in this Taihu Clan, he would no longer be an "outsider" or "trouble" needing protection.

But rather, a highly honored... "Saint Teacher."
