The ancient altar occupied a vast area, as if it was boundless.
Around the altar, there were statues of all shapes and sizes. Some were humanoid, while others were monstrous. All of them had different postures and expressions.
Surrounded by these statues of different shapes like stars surrounding the moon, there was a huge statue of a human.
This was a middle-aged man with a face full of curly beard. His messy hair draped over his shoulders. His figure was sturdy and tall, and his perfect muscles seemed to contain explosive strength …
He stepped on a high platform with one foot. His upper body was bare, and he held an incomparably huge axe in his hand. He raised his head and looked at the sky. His eyes were filled with disdain, and he looked like he was going to 'compete with the heavens'!
"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor!"
…
Yang Zhen Xing, the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan, said respectfully. His voice reverberated in the air around the altar, lingering in the air.
The reason why this happened was because the altar was surrounded by mountains. Because of this, there was such an echo.
"Who is making a ruckus here?!"
A moment later, an ice-cold voice that contained anger resounded in a timely manner. It seemed to have come from all directions.
Along with this voice, a figure appeared out of thin air above the altar like a ghost. It was a burly old man in a green robe. He had a strong back and a bear waist.
The old man had a head of long gray hair draped behind his back. His pair of tiger-like eyebrows gave off a dignified aura, setting off his firm square face.
"Grand … Grand Master?!"
The moment Yang Zhenxing saw the face of the burly old man, he could not help but cry out in surprise.
In the next moment, he looked at the robust old man again as if he had seen a ghost!
The face in front of him was not unfamiliar to him.
Of course, this did not mean that he had seen this old man before.
The reason why he could recognize the old man in front of him was because he had seen a portrait of the old man before, and that portrait was hanging in his master's room.
"Martial Granduncle?"
Hearing Yang Zhenxing's exclamation, the burly old man could not help but frown. This was because he did not know the person in front of him, and he was certain that this was the first time they had met.
"Martial Granduncle, my master is Liao Nai Jiang. I'm my master's last disciple, Yang Zhenxing!"
Yang Zhenxing seemed to have seen the doubts of the sturdy old man, and he did not dare to hesitate. He immediately showed a humble expression and introduced himself respectfully.
At this very moment, Yang Zhenxing's heart was in turmoil ….
He had never imagined that:
His Martial Granduncle, who was also his Master's Martial Uncle, was actually still alive!
Didn't he fail his tribulation long ago?
"Counting the time … Presently, more than 4,000 years have passed since this Martial Granduncle failed to transcend the tribulation. In other words, he's a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial now? "
Yang Zhenxing's heart trembled.
Although he knew there were still many Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan, he did not know how many there were.
The only Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan he knew were his master, Liao Nai Jiang, and the forefather of the Human-Devil clan.
The reason he knew about the forefather of the Human-Devil clan was because after he had become the Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan, he had learned about the existence of the forefather of the Human-Devil clan from the previous Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan. He had also learned how to contact the forefather of the Human-Devil clan.
It was precisely because of this that he had appeared here!
As for the other Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan, he did not know how many of them there were, nor did he know who they were.
However, when he saw the old man standing in front of him, he realized that Yang Zhenxing was a Bodiless Celestial.
Among the Bodiless Celestials in the Human-Devil clan, one of them was his Martial Granduncle, Yang Xiong Jun.
"So you're Yang Zhenxing, that child's direct disciple."
Upon hearing Yang Zhenxing's self-introduction, the cold expression on the face of the muscular old man, Yang Xiongjun, faded. It was replaced with a smile. "I've heard of you. You're currently the Patriarch of our Human-Devil clan."
"Greetings, Martial Granduncle!"
At this time, Yang Zhenxing also formally bowed to Yang Xiongjun.
"But … why did you come here personally to look for the 'ancestor'? But what happened to the clan? Even if something happened to the clan, it should be your master coming here to look for the Old Ancestor … "
Yang Xiongjun asked with a frown.
Before today, Yang Zhen Xing did not know Yang Xiong Jun was still alive. However, Yang Xiong Jun knew Yang Zhen Xing was the current Patriarch of the Human-Devil clan.
Apart from Yang Zhen Xing, Yang Zhen Xing's master, Liao Nai Jiang, who was a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, was also in charge of the Human-Devil clan.
In his opinion,
Even if something really happened to the Human-Devil Clan, it should be Liao Nai Jiang who came to look for the Ancestor of the Human-Devil Clan, not Yang Zhenxing.
Because of this, Yang Xiongjun had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Martial Granduncle, Master … has already passed away."
As soon as Yang Xiongjun finished speaking, Yang Zhen Xing muttered with a sorrowful expression on his face. His voice was filled with sorrow, causing the atmosphere in the surroundings to become heavy.
"What?!"
"Nai Jiang is dead?!"
After the ominous premonition in his heart was confirmed, Yang Xiongjun's face suddenly changed. He stared at Yang Zhenxing and asked in a deep voice, "Who? Who killed Nai Jiang?!
Was it a Bodiless Celestial from the Lion Devil Clan or the Tiger Devil Clan?
Or was it a Bodiless Celestial from the Ox Devil Clan? "
Yang Xiongjun's expression darkened as he asked these questions.
The Devil Clans he mentioned were the strongest Devil Clans in the Devil Clans.
Apart from the three Devil Clans, the Human-Devil Clan was also one of the strongest Devil Clans in the Devil Clans.
In Yang Xiongjun's opinion, the Human-Devil Clans were extremely strong.
In the entire Exiled Realm, only the Bodiless Celestials from the three Devil Clans would have the courage to kill a Bodiless Celestial from the Human-Devil clan.
"None of them …" Yang Zhen Xing shook his head bitterly.
Yang Zhenxing shook his head bitterly. Before he could finish, Yang Xiongjun asked in a cold and hurried tone, "Which clan of itinerant Immortals did it?"
"I'd like to know … Apart from the Lion Devil Clan, the Tiger Devil Clan, and the Ox Devil Clan, which other Devil Clans would dare to provoke the Human-Devil clan?"
As he spoke, Yang Xiongjun's tone became colder and colder, giving people a feeling as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Master … He wasn't killed by a Bodiless Celestial from the Devil Clans."
Yang Xiongjun was taken aback by Yang Zhen Xing's reply. "He wasn't killed by a Bodiless Celestial from the Devil Clans? Then … Who killed him?! "
"Martial Granduncle, the Human-Devil clan has left the Exiled Realm with the Devil Clans and invaded the Saint Province Realm. Moreover, we've occupied the Dobusei Subterranean Realm …"
Yang Zhen Xing realized Yang Zhen Xing was unaware of this.
Yang Xiongjun was most likely unaware that the Devil Clans had invaded the Saint Province Realm a few years ago.
For this reason, Yang Xiongjun patiently explained how the Human-Devil clan had invaded the Dobusei Subterranean Realm and occupied the Azure Cloud Mansion's territory.
He went on to talk about recent events.
He told Yang Xiongjun about how Duan Lingtian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, had snuck into the Wandering Saint Palace and faced the Celestial Ascension Tribulation with the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace.
"He used someone else's Celestial Ascension Tribulation to attract the Celestial Ascension Tribulation … Moreover, he succeeded?!"
Because there had never been such a 'precedent' in the history of the Demon Race, even Yang Xiongjun couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard about this.
However, he was even more confused when he heard what happened next.
"Duan Ling Tian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, cast an assist-type Divine Ability after he became an Eminent Celestial. That assist-type Divine Ability boosted his strength to a ridiculous level!"
At this point, Yang Zhenxing couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
If he had not crushed the Fiery Blood Evasion Talisman in time, he would have been killed by Duan Lingtian.
After all, even his master, Liao Nai Jiang, a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, could not withstand a single blow from Duan Ling Tian before he was killed by Duan Ling Tian.
"Nai Jiang was killed by him in just a single blow?
"The sword strike he used to kill Nai Jiang not only tore the void apart, but it even left behind a tear in the void that took about 30 minutes to completely heal?"
Yang Xiongjun was dumbfounded when he learned about this from Yang Zhen Xing.
"This is impossible!"
Yang Xiongjun shook his head as he looked at Yang Zhen Xing.
His rationality told him that it was impossible.
It was impossible for someone who had just become an Eminent Celestial to possess such strength.
How could someone tear the void apart and leave a tear in the void that would take 30 minutes to heal?
Even he did not possess such a technique.
Even if he used all his strength to tear the void apart, it would only take a few moments for the tear to heal.
"Only a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial or stronger would be able to tear the void apart and leave a tear in the void that would take 15 minutes to heal.
I'm afraid only a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial or stronger would be able to tear the void apart and leave a tear in the void that would take 30 minutes to heal! "
For this reason, Yang Xiongjun did not think Duan Lingtian was an Eminent Celestial.
How could someone who had just become an Eminent Celestial possess strength comparable to a Six Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?
