Chapter 176 The Reasons for the Extinction of the Clan Lineage
“Of course there’s something going on.” He flicked his finger in the air, and a crystal coffin exuding a chilling aura and a huge, dark blue egg suddenly appeared under the tree.
Curious, Ye Luo stepped forward and saw a man in white lying inside with his eyes closed. He had a high nose, thin lips, and sword-like eyebrows that slanted towards his temples. His handsome facial features were perfectly flawless.
"This must be the patriarch?"
"yes."
"Has the Patriarch...already perished?"
A look of sorrow appeared in Fuyun's eyes. "Originally, yes, but later I was unwilling to use the secret technique 'Rejuvenation of Withered Trees,' and I only managed to preserve a wisp of his soul. This came at a huge cost."
Ye Luo suddenly realized that this was the reason why the sect's lineage was gradually drying up.
So... what do you need me to do?
"Use your blood to nourish his immortal body."
Ye Luo looked puzzled. "How do you know my blood is useful?"
Fu Yun smiled meaningfully, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. Just do as I say."
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo was speechless. What the hell is this "heavenly secrets cannot be revealed" nonsense?
He sighed, walked to the coffin, pricked his fingertip, and carefully fed it some blood. "Is this enough?"
He flashed down from the tree and sat beside the coffin, his slender fingertips stroking the coffin's cheek. After a long while, he said excitedly, "It...it works!"
Ye Luo craned his head and looked over, and sure enough, he saw that the patriarch had become somewhat alive. He felt a strange excitement in his heart.
"Will this allow our grandmaster to be resurrected?"
Fuyun looked up at him, shaking her head in confusion. "It's probably not enough yet. Although you've awakened me, I still need to nourish him. Sooner or later, I'll still wither away..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo was greatly alarmed. Wouldn't this mean that the sect's lineage would be the same as before?
If that's the case, then Master and the others will be disappointed again. "Is there any other way? Please tell me, and I will do my best to do it!"
"I will transfer some spiritual treasures here, but those treasures are colorless and formless, and are extremely difficult to obtain, relying entirely on chance. For now, just find me some spiritual liquid."
Ye Luo stroked her chin. "My cave has a Spirit Eye Spring. Can I use that?"
“No.” Fu Yun shook his head and said seriously, “Your Spirit Spring Pool was moved back using magic. Frequent movement of spiritual objects will damage the purity of their spiritual energy and cause them to gradually lose their spirituality.”
"Ah? The spiritual spring in my cave was moved back by someone?"
He thought it was incredible luck, but it turned out he was just enjoying the blessings of his ancestors. "Okay, I'll remember that."
"Do not divulge today's events."
"Yes, disciple understands."
Suddenly, Ye Luo noticed that the patriarch seemed to be holding a piece of broken jade in his hand. He reached out, picked it up, and examined it for a moment before exclaiming in surprise, "This broken jade... how did it get here?"
"Have you seen it?" Fuyun asked.
"That's right. I originally had no intention of acquiring a piece, but now someone else has taken it. What is the purpose of this broken jade?"
“I don’t know the specifics either.” Fuyun looked at the person inside the coffin and said, “When the master returned from serious injury, he was holding this broken jade.”
This broken jade has become increasingly mysterious. Not only did Bai Ruoqian try to seize it, but even the Fourth Elder wanted to get his hands on it... What secrets does it hold?
Ye Luo thought about it and decided it was better not to take it; it was no different from a hot potato.
It's safer to leave it here; let's wait until he understands the whole story before making any decisions.
"Thump thump thump—!"
As he was lost in thought, the giant, dark blue egg at the tree root shook a few times, which surprised Fu Yun. "I didn't expect it to actually react."
Ye Luo: "What kind of monster is this?"
"The Nine Nether Sparrow's egg was brought back by its owner years ago, and it hasn't shown any signs of life all these years. I thought it was dead."
Ye Luo was taken aback. Could it be the legendary Nine Netherworld Sparrow, a god of slaughter born from the Nine Netherworld? It is said that wherever it fights, the Netherworld fire burns everything to ashes, leaving nothing but barren land.
Ye Luo instantly became excited. If he could hatch it... wouldn't he have gained another combatant?
"Hey, senior, can I have it?"
Fu Yun's face was full of disdain, "If you can hatch it, then take it. It has consumed a lot of my spiritual energy over the years..."
"Okay, let me try."
Ye Luo made a cut on her palm and dripped her bright red blood onto the eggshell, which was quickly absorbed.
The huge egg seemed excited and began to shake violently. Seeing this, Ye Luo was afraid that it would break, so she picked it up and comforted it, saying, "Be good, don't make a fuss."
Upon hearing this, it obediently quieted down. Fuyun looked at him and chuckled, "Take it with you."
"You really gave it to me?"
"Otherwise, it should be destined for you; it's a waste of spiritual energy to stay here."
"Great!" Ye Luo was overjoyed and hugged the giant egg, giving it a big kiss. "I'll take you back to the cave later, where there's a spiritual spring to nourish you."
Fuyun asked him to leave some of his blood, gave him a few solemn instructions, and then sent him out of this small world.
When Ye Luo opened his eyes, he found that Yu Qianling was still on the rock wall, and Ming Cang was still cursing below. Everything was just as it was before he was pulled into the mural.
"It seems they didn't notice I disappeared... Could it be that the time dimension of that small world is different?"
"Junior brother, what are you daydreaming about?" Cen Feng walked over, puzzled.
"Um... looking at the murals."
"mural?"
Cen Feng looked puzzled and followed his gaze. "Where are the murals?"
"Really...nothing?" Could it be that he's the only one who can see it?
At that moment, Ye Luo saw that a person had suddenly appeared on the tree in the mural and winked at him.
Ye Luo: "..."
After acquiring some treasures within the secret realm, Ming Cang, pulling along the unwilling Yu Qianling, led the others out first.
After the stone gate closed.
After trying it a few more times and confirming that the sect's secret realm could now be entered normally, Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief, saving herself the trouble of explaining to everyone.
Ming Cang glanced at Ye Luo and said, "Xiao Luo, stay here. Everyone else, go back and cultivate."
After everyone left, Ye Luo, feeling uneasy, asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
Ming Cang's eyes gleamed as he said, "Just now within the secret realm, I sensed that your aura vanished for a fleeting moment. Can you tell me what happened?"
"Hehe, no..."
Seeing that he didn't believe her at all, Ye Luo said frankly, "Master... I just entered a small world, but there are some things I can't tell you yet..."
Seeing his troubled expression, Mingcang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go out."
Ye Luo caught up with him and asked cautiously, "Master, aren't you angry?"
"You have your reasons for doing this, as long as it won't harm us. How could your master not know that?"
"Hehe, Master is so understanding."
"You brat, you're asking for it!"
