Daiyu Island.
Heron Island, the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
As the saying goes …
The cicada senses the golden wind before it moves, sending the impermanence of death without knowing it.
Ever since Jiang Zhengqing was injured by that outsider who came out of nowhere, the sky above Daiyu Island seemed to be shrouded in thick dark clouds.
Everyone in the clan was anxious, and the atmosphere was gloomy. Everyone seemed to be more cautious than usual.
As the clan leader, Jiang Yuankui did not step forward to appease everyone at such a critical time. Instead, he stayed on Heron Island all day, doing something unknown.
Everyone thought that the clan leader was planning something big, but no one knew …
Jiang Yuankui himself was confused.
Apart from preserving the most complete inheritance, the Jiang clan also had an immortal old monster who had lived for thousands of years.
Based on this alone, Daiyu Island was destined to have too many secrets that no one knew.
The Great Ancestor's seniority was there. Once the old man spoke, Jiang Yuankui naturally had to bow and listen.
The Great Ancestor's words were simple. He wanted him to wait outside the pavilion in the middle of the lake and wait patiently for the fated person to appear …
The fated person?
Who was the fated person?
Who was the fated person?
The Great Ancestor's words must have a deeper meaning, so Jiang Yuankui had been thinking about this question for the past few days.
However, no matter how hard he thought about it, he could not come up with a reliable answer.
Until this day …
A sudden tide of spiritual energy enveloped the entire world. As the place with the densest spiritual energy within a hundred miles, a cloud vortex inevitably appeared in the sky above Daiyu Island.
This scene was very similar to the scene described in Immortals at the Magpie Bridge.
When the golden wind and the jade dew meet, it surpasses countless things in the human world.
It was only at this moment that Jiang Yuankui suddenly realized …
The sky had changed.
Sure enough, when sword rays streaked across the sky and shot toward the vortex from afar, Jiang Yuankui finally understood who the fated person the Great Ancestor was talking about was.
In this world, there was actually someone who was unwilling to ascend to the great world, and was instead trying his best to stop the Divine Gate from opening?
Going against the entire great world with his own strength …
What kind of courage was this?
Even Jiang Yuankui could not help but be fascinated.
However, Jiang Yuankui was the clan leader after all. He had to think carefully about everything.
Therefore, in the next moment, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind.
If the Divine Gate could not be opened …
Who was the biggest beneficiary?
Weren't they the Five Lands of Legacy?!
Even though the Old Ancestor had never explicitly mentioned it, Jiang Yuankui was keenly aware of the problem at this moment.
When the Spirit Qi on Earth began to recover, what was the difference between Earth and the Great World?
The desert had already become an oasis, so why would the people need to migrate again?
On Earth, they were the high and mighty Jiang Clan.
But in the great world, they were sinners who were as lowly as ants.
Since that was the case, why was the Jiang Clan still anxiously waiting for the Gate of Heaven to open?
Isn't it good to stay on Earth?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuankui couldn't help but look back at the pavilion in the middle of the lake. His face suddenly revealed a complicated expression of worry and joy.
Could it be …
The Elder Ancestor really had such a plan?
Jiang Yuankui stood at the bridgehead, letting his imagination run wild.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky above Dai Yu Island. Following that, he passed through the formation at an extremely fast speed and landed outside the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Only when that person opened the door curtain and made a slight movement did Jiang Yuankui's heart suddenly tremble. He quickly turned around and angrily shouted, "Who is it?! How dare you trespass into the forbidden area of my clan! "
However, before he could step forward to stop him, the Elder Ancestor's voice slowly came from the house.
"Yuankui, you can leave first."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuankui couldn't help but stop. He quickly bowed and replied, "Yes!"
"Also, pass on my order. Ring the Nine Dragon Bell and summon all the Elders in the clan. I have something important to announce to everyone."
"Nine Dragon Bell?!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuankui subconsciously opened his eyes wide. He even suspected that he had heard wrongly.
The Elder Ancestor seemed to have noticed his abnormality, so he spoke again to confirm it.
"Go, ring the Nine Dragon Bell."
"Yes, Elder Ancestor!"
This time, he finally heard it clearly.
Therefore, Jiang Yuankui immediately went to the bell tower by the lake.
After taking a deep breath, he was full of excitement. He pushed the hammer hard and rang the ancient bronze bell in front of him that hadn't been rung for thousands of years.
'Dong!'
'Dong!'
'Dong …'
The heavy and distant sound of the bell suddenly rang out, startling tens of thousands of birds on the island.
Before the bell rang for the ninth time, the bridge outside the pavilion in the middle of the lake was already densely packed with people.
Among these people, the ones with the lowest cultivation were Diviners. Among them were Jiang Yuankui's father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and the various Jiang Clan ancestors.
It was obvious that they were the core strength of the Jiang Clan.
These people used to represent the glory of the Jiang Clan, but now they were representing the future of the Jiang Clan.
With the continuous recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the shackles of heaven and earth had been completely broken. In this short one year, many Diviners had appeared in the Jiang Clan. Among them, there were even those above Diviners led by Jiang Zhengqing.
The future had come, and it had arrived.
The Jiang Clan was like a ferocious beast entrenched on Dai Yu Island. At this moment, it finally revealed its ferocious and terrifying true face.
…
Among the people by the lake, Jiang Yuankui's seniority was the lowest. However, due to his status as the current Patriarch, Jiang Yuankui was fortunate enough to stand in the first row of the bridge.
The entire place was silent. One could hear a pin drop.
Everyone lowered their heads and ears, quietly waiting for the Old Ancestor to speak.
No one knew who the Old Ancestor was talking to, nor did they know the content of their conversation.
In short, after a long, long time …
The Old Ancestor's voice suddenly rang out, instantly shaking everyone's hearts.
"I am Jiang Yan, the seventeenth generation Patriarch of the Jiang Clan. Today, I declare …"
"The Jiang Clan will form an alliance with Mr. Chen and fight against Tiandu together!"
"In ancient times, what crime did the Jiang Clan commit? But the Divine Ancestor, for his own selfish reasons, listed our Jiang Clan as sinners and suffered the pain of being trapped for ten thousand years … "
"However, there is no need for such a crime. Today, we will follow Mr. Chen to expel the Heavenly Gate and break off Tiandu's path of retreat in order to protect our homeland!"
"This is to inherit the legacy of our ancestors, where righteousness lies …"
"All the clansmen of the Jiang Clan should take this as their responsibility. Everyone knows this!"
This sudden declaration of war instantly stupefied all of the Jiang Clan clansmen present.
The Old Ancestor wanted to …
Crusade against Tiandu?!
Didn't the clan often offer sacrifices and pray for Tiandu to open a door so that the clansmen could ascend to the great world?
Why did he suddenly want to rebel and go against Tiandu with the banner of Tiandu?
Perhaps because the news came too suddenly, everyone was unable to accept it for a while.
Many hot-tempered clansmen risked disobeying the Old Ancestor and kept asking why in a loud voice.
One had to know that the great world was the immortal world that everyone dreamed of!
What was the purpose of a person's life?
If it weren't for the limited conditions on Earth, how could they be trapped in the Heavenly Realm?
Only by going to the great world would they have the possibility of continuing to break through.
Only by going to the great world and improving their realm could they live for another hundred, two hundred, or even a thousand years!
Everyone had long had enough of being unable to break through because of the shackles of Heaven and Earth.
It wasn't that they couldn't do it, but that the conditions didn't allow it.
And this was the fundamental reason why people felt sad.
The crowd was restless. Everyone was questioning the Old Ancestor's decision.
If it weren't for the fact that the direct descendants of Jiang Yuankui were still trying to appease everyone, many people would have already rushed into the pavilion in the middle of the lake and demanded an explanation from the Old Ancestor.
Just when the situation was out of control, a figure suddenly lifted the curtain and slowly walked out of the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
"So annoying! A bunch of short-sighted people. "
