After a pause, Mu Beichen continued, "In fact, many of the Mu family's ancestors who were unfortunately killed were at the beginning of their awakening. Some even showed the slightest sign of awakening before they were killed. Their enemies didn't even reveal their true identities."
After hearing her grandfather's words, Mu Hanyan felt very fortunate. Fortunately, the assassin she met at the beginning of her rebirth was too careless and did not use his true strength. She also accidentally awakened Xinghuan Qianji, otherwise she would have been doomed.
"To be honest, the Mu family has been around for nearly a million years since our ancestor died in battle, and you are the only one who has successfully awakened the bloodline of God." Mu Beichen sighed and said with emotion.
"Isn't there still Senior Mu Tianlie?" Mu Hanyan said curiously.
"No, he is only half awakened. According to the will left by our ancestors, only if one's bloodline awakens before the age of sixteen and reaches the realm of swordsmanship can one finally awaken the divine mark. If one awakens after the age of sixteen, although one can still possess the talent to practice against the will of heaven, the ultimate achievement is ultimately limited. One will never be able to awaken the divine mark, nor will one ever be able to possess the power bestowed by the gods.
Senior Tianlie's situation was similar to yours, but he didn't awaken until he was sixteen, so his cultivation was always limited. He ultimately couldn't escape his fate, but he was just a little luckier than other seniors. "Mu Beichen shook his head and said.
"What about Han Feng? He was also promoted to a swordsman before the age of sixteen, and his bloodline was also awakened?" Mu Hanyan suddenly thought of Mu Hanfeng when she heard this, and said excitedly.
"It's different, it's different. Although we are all descendants of the Mu family, not everyone has the hope of awakening their bloodline. It's impossible that you haven't discovered the difference between your physique and others yet, right?" Mu Beichen waved his hand and said.
Mu Hanyan thought for a moment, then suddenly realized that she and Mu Tianlie had one thing in common: they were both deemed useless from birth. It wasn't until her rebirth that Mu Hanyan realized she wasn't a natural loser, nor was she incapable of cultivation. It was simply that her heart meridians were too vast, making ordinary cultivation methods impossible to advance.
To put it bluntly, their cultivation potential far exceeds that of ordinary people, so the difficulty of cultivation is also much greater than that of ordinary people.
Mu Hanfeng has shown extraordinary talent for cultivation since he was a child, so naturally he does not have her cultivation potential. In other words, he does not have the qualifications to awaken his bloodline.
"I understand." Mu Hanyan said a little disappointedly.
"You don't have to feel sad for him. With his qualifications, even if he can't awaken the divine imprint left by his ancestors, his future achievements will be incomparable to ordinary people. And as I said before, the bloodline of God is not a good thing for you. In fact, it also means that you will face more crises, or even be doomed." Mu Ruian saw the deep sisterly love that Mu Hanyan had for Mu Hanfeng, and felt very relieved in his heart, and said comfortingly.
"Well, Grandfather, I will be careful. After all, this is the Holy Court Continent, and the power of the temple is limited. As long as I am careful and vigilant, they may not be able to do anything to me." Mu Hanyan said solemnly.
She used to be worried because she didn't know who the enemy hiding in the dark was, but now that she knows both herself and the enemy, she feels much more at ease.
"What you have to face may not be as simple as the temple." Mu Beichen shook his head and said solemnly.
"Who else?" Mu Hanyan looked at Mu Beichen in surprise.
"The Zhao family, the Yan family, and the descendants of gods like them." Mu Beichen said.
"Did their ancestors both side with the Temple?" If Mu Beichen hadn't mentioned it, Mu Hanyan would have almost asked about the Zhao family. His mention suddenly reminded her of this question: since both were descendants of the gods' guardians, why did the Zhao family become enemies in the past? And why are the Yan family and the Mu family so at odds now?
From the Destiny Star Plate in Zhao Yuanji's hand and Yan Yuchu's life experience, it was not difficult for Mu Hanyan to guess the origins of the two families.
"That's not the case. Although the descendants of the gods' guardians are spread all over the world after they died in battle, the vast majority of those who thrive on the Holy Court Continent are still descendants of the gods on the Holy Court side. The same is true for the Demon Continent. Of course, there are exceptions, but the Zhao and Yan families are not among them. The ancestors of the Zhao and Yan families indeed belonged to the Holy Court side." Mu Beichen said.
"Then why did the Zhao family become enemies with our Mu family, and now the Yan family is also at odds with the Mu family?" Mu Hanyan was even more puzzled.
"It's all for the Destiny Star Plate." Mu Beichen smiled bitterly and said, "Back then, all the guardian gods died in battle, their bodies turned into smoke, but the Destiny Star Plates they carried with them were preserved and scattered throughout the world.
It is said that the Destiny Star Plate contains the greatest secret of the ancient masters—the source of divine power! If one obtains the Destiny Star Plate, there is a greater hope of awakening the divine imprint within the body. Even if awakening is not possible, one can still ascend to great power in one step.
Senior Tian Lie, by chance, obtained a Destiny Star Plate, and within just a few years, he possessed strength beyond that of an ordinary Sword Saint."
"The feud between the Mu family, the Zhao family, and the Yan family is all about the Destiny Star Plate." Mu Hanyan understood without her grandfather saying much.
Although the ancestors of several families were all protected by the gods, and perhaps they had once shared life and death like brothers, they were still themselves, and the younger generations were still the younger generations. To gain greater strength, brothers could even turn against each other, not to mention the friendship between ancestors that spanned countless generations, stretching back hundreds of thousands of years.
"Yes, it's for the Destiny Star Plate. As long as one is a descendant of a Guardian God and their bloodline has been awakened, they can refine the Destiny Star Plate left behind by any Guardian God and decipher the secrets within.
"Outsiders don't know that over the past hundreds of thousands of years, countless descendants of the gods' guardians have killed each other, even their families destroyed, because of the Destiny Star Plate," Mu Beichen said helplessly.
"But I don't think there are many secrets in this Destiny Star Plate?" Mu Hanyan took out the Destiny Star Plate left by Mu Tianlie and said doubtfully.
Apart from the power of the Nine Heavens Stars left by Mu Tianlie, she really didn't discover any bigger secrets.
"This is not something I can explain. My bloodline has not awakened. To unlock the secret, you can only rely on yourself." Mu Beichen shook his head and said.
"Okay then." Mu Hanyan put away the Destiny Star Plate. She didn't know what secrets lay within it, so she would slowly comprehend them when she had time.
"By the way, Grandfather, have you found the Destiny Star Plate again?" Mu Hanyan asked curiously. Since the Mu family and the Yan family had a falling out over the Destiny Star Plate, then the whereabouts of the Destiny Star Plate must be known.
"Yes, in the past hundreds of thousands of years, the descendants of the God's Guardian have been searching for the Destiny Star Disk everywhere, and our Mu family and Yan family are no exception. God will not let down those who work hard. Since our ancestor Tianlie, our Mu family finally found the whereabouts of the Destiny Star Disk. Unfortunately, the Yan family also got the news at the same time, and it was for this reason that our two families turned against each other." Mu Beichen nodded and said.
