Upon hearing this, the Eighth and Ninth Patriarchs immediately showed signs of anxiety and blurted out, "If that's the case, then what are we waiting for?"

"The most important thing is to quickly tear open that damned spatial rift and bring back the immortal!"

Before he could finish speaking, the Ninth Ancestor couldn't wait to mobilize the terrifying energy within his body, which was like a raging storm, and was about to make his move.

Suddenly, a deep and majestic voice boomed through the ancestral land, abruptly interrupting his impending attack.

"Xiao Jiu, don't act impulsively!"

The sudden shout to stop him froze him in place.

With just that one sentence, the Ninth Ancestor immediately recognized who it was. He quickly turned to face the surrounding void and respectfully replied, "Brother, are we just going to stand by and watch the Immortal be trapped in another dimension, his life hanging in the balance? Can you really bear to let the Immortal take this risk?"

Just then, the voice of the Yuan Clan's Great Ancestor came again: "I have already reported this matter to the Ancient Ancestors."

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope ignited in the heart of the Ninth Ancestor, who quickly asked, "What did the ancient ancestors say?"

However, what the Great Ancestor said next was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, extinguishing the little flame that had just risen in his heart.

"The ancient ancestor meant that this was an opportunity for the banished immortal, and we must not interfere."

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor was stunned, his face filled with disbelief. He couldn't help but raise his voice and question, "What kind of opportunity would require such a risk?"

"If something were to happen to the immortal, and something were to happen to him, the consequences would be far too heavy for us to bear!"

The Great Ancestor's voice, tinged with solemnity, slowly rang out again: "Everyone, do not forget that before, the banished immortal obtained the Primordial Pearl and the Creation Scripture by chance. This is the cause of the past."

"Just like that ferocious beast clan, since such a cause and effect has been sown, then the banished immortal has no choice but to go and settle this consequence."

As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of ancient jade, exuding a rustic aura and crystal clear, floated steadily in front of the ancestors as if lifted by an invisible hand.

Immediately afterwards, the Great Ancestor's voice came again: "Look at this ancient jade. It still shines with the unique soul light of the banished immortal. This is enough to prove that the banished immortal has not encountered any misfortune."

The elders looked closely and indeed saw a faint but steady light shining on the ancient jade, which symbolized the existence of the soul fire of the Immortal Yuan Zhe.

Upon seeing this, most of the worry that had been hanging over my heart instantly dissipated, and my anxious heart finally calmed down a little.

However, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the Great Ancestor continued, "But you can all rest assured. Based on my understanding of the Immortal, even if he is in that unknown place, he will definitely be safe and sound."

"What's more, as far as I know, that old guy seems to be wandering around in that world too!"

"With him protecting the immortal, no one can possibly harm him in the slightest."

Upon hearing this, the elders were first slightly taken aback, and then they erupted into a flurry of discussion.

"What? That old thing is over there too?" one of the elders asked in astonishment.

"If that old man really had that by his side, then the immortal would be absolutely safe!"

The Third Patriarch stroked his beard, nodded, and showed a pleased expression.

"Absolutely right! With that unfathomable old fellow around, I'm afraid no one in this world can threaten the safety of the banished immortal!"

The other elders echoed their agreement.

Just as the many ancestors were talking among themselves and gradually putting aside their worries, suddenly, a clear and loud voice came from afar outside the ancestral land.

"As a junior, I have a matter of vital importance that I need to discuss with all of you elders!"

The sound, like a grand and resonant bell, clearly reached everyone's ears.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ninth Ancestor waved his sleeve without hesitation, and an invisible force swept out instantly.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Changsheng, who was originally standing outside the ancestral land, vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye, like a ghost.

The next moment, when everyone looked again, Yuan Changsheng had already appeared steadily in the ancestral land.

At this moment, the Ninth Ancestor looked at Yuan Changsheng with a solemn expression and slowly began to tell him in detail about how Yuan Zhexian was unfortunately sucked into the cosmic space hole.

Upon hearing this shocking news, Yuan Changsheng was struck dumb, his body trembled violently, and he swayed as if he had lost his support.

Immediately afterwards, he began to tremble violently, and his face turned deathly pale.

"Ninth Ancestor... all the venerable ancestors, what has become of that banished immortal...?"

Yuan Changsheng's voice was clearly choked with sobs, his hands were clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, yet he felt no pain at all.

Seeing Yuan Changsheng in such a state, the Ninth Ancestor quickly reassured him, "Changsheng, don't worry, the banished immortal is not in any danger to his life at the moment."

After a pause, the Ninth Ancestor continued, "Moreover, the Ancient Ancestor also asserted that this encounter might not be a calamity for the banished immortal, but rather a rare opportunity."

Hearing this, Yuan Changsheng's tense nerves finally relaxed a little, but his face was still full of worry.

However, since even our own ancestor speaks with such certainty, the situation shouldn't be too bad, right?

Thinking of this, Yuan Changsheng's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled down a little.
