All the contents in the photo stone were released, and an ancestor of the immortal clan appeared in it. The ancestor called himself Qingshan Patriarch. This ancestor explained the whole ins and outs of the whole matter, including why he went to the demon clan and the truth he investigated in the demon clan. He told everything.
All the ancestors at the table gasped when they heard this. Finally, the ancestors finished reading the contents of the photo stone, but no one spoke first.
If the contents of the photo stone were true, then this matter was of great importance and they did not dare to speak rashly. Among them, the one with the highest cultivation level was Old He, so they naturally focused their attention on him.
He Lao was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Where did you get this photo stone? How can you be sure that what is said in this photo stone is true?"
Ning Jing spoke calmly, "We obtained this photo stone from the grandchildren of Qingshan Patriarch. You've already made up your mind about the authenticity of its contents. We may not know Qingshan Patriarch's reputation, but the ancestors must have heard of it."
Upon hearing this, Elder Huo immediately stood up and said, "Indeed, I've heard of the reputation of Qingshan Patriarch. I've heard that he's an upright man who will get to the bottom of anything he suspects. But it's said that he completely disappeared after the battle between immortals and demons ended. I didn't expect he went to the demon clan!"
Old Liu also stepped forward and agreed: "Yes, I had heard about the deeds of Ancestor Qingshan when I was young, it is indeed true. If he is really trapped in the demon clan, it would be a great regret for our immortal clan." As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh.
He Lao also spoke slowly: "I understand everything you said, but this matter is of great importance. If there is any mistake, it may lead to irreparable consequences."
"My dear ancestors, I know what you are thinking, but if you connect all these things together, don't you think that what happened thousands of years ago is too strange?" Ning Jing continued.
The ancestors fell silent again for a moment.
Seeing this, Ning Jing quickly struck while the iron was hot and analyzed each event one by one. "What happened back then, whether it was the sudden appearance of monsters from other worlds or people from the upper realms, all seemed so strange. First, the demons were sealed in the Wuwang Sea, and after being sealed, they could no longer ascend to the upper realms. Then, the entire dragon clan was taken to the upper immortal realm. But recently, it was discovered that the dragon clan might have encountered danger in the upper realm. Then, we, the immortals, discovered that the gate to the immortal realm was closed. All of this seems to point to the same conclusion, that is, someone does not want those of us in the lower immortal realm to ascend to the upper immortal realm, so those people in the upper realm did not hesitate to use monsters from other worlds to plan all this. Such a large-scale move, if I say that the upper realm does not have some conspiracy, I don't believe it."
Ning Jing's powerful words made everyone present fall into complete silence. The fact was indeed as she said. If this guess was correct, then their three major clans had actually been manipulated by others.
At this moment, a voice with a hint of majesty suddenly sounded: "Indeed, I completely agree with this girl's guess. Back then, I was deceived by that person from the upper realm and handed all my people over to him to be taken to the upper realm. It was not until I received the dragon scales that protected my people that I realized there must be something fishy going on. Perhaps my people have met with misfortune in the upper immortal realm! In any case, I must ascend to the upper immortal realm to investigate."
When all the ancestors heard this, their faces turned even paler. In fact, if they took a wrong step in this matter, it could be a dead end.
He Lao sighed lightly: "Actually, what you said does make some sense. I don't know what happened in the upper fairyland now. Now it seems that perhaps it would be better for us old guys not to ascend to the upper fairyland."
Ning Jing disagreed with what He Lao said: "He Lao, you don't have to think about yourself, but you should at least think about your descendants. Think about your descendants who can only stay in the lower immortal realm for generations, unable to make any progress. Once they cultivate to the great perfection of the tribulation period, they can only count the days to live. Is this really what you want?"
"You are simply unreasonable. We naturally don't want our descendants to live like this all the time, but if our mistakes cause our descendants to die out faster, wouldn't that be even more stupid?" One of the ancestors immediately jumped out to refute.
Ning Jing wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Mr. He: "Okay, there's no need to argue about this. This matter must be considered in the long run and cannot be decided overnight."
Ning Jing pressed on, not giving up hope. "What about the Demon Clan's seal? I believe the Demon Clan certainly didn't collude with otherworldly monsters back then. Even the immortal cultivators who were captured are still alive and well. The Demon Clan only captured so many immortal cultivators to find a way to break the formation."
"You said that those immortal monks who were captured are still alive?" Everyone couldn't help but feel a little surprised. They thought that those people had been killed by the demons long ago.
"Yes, they are all still alive. I saw it with my own eyes. If the demons were really capable of colluding with the demons, they would definitely not spare the lives of those immortal cultivators." Ning Jing said loudly.
"How is it possible? If those monks are still alive, why didn't they come back with you?" An old ancestor asked with some doubt.
"That's because the demons were worried that we were just lying in order to leave the demon tribe, so they kept them as hostages." Xu Fuyi helped to add.
"We all know everything. Do you have anything else to say?" Mr. He asked this question, meaning that he was going to start chasing people away.
"There is indeed one more thing I want to say. The Demon King has agreed that as long as the seal that traps the demons can be released, he is willing to personally come to our immortal clan to discuss with the ancestors about the response strategy for the upper immortal world." Ning Jing said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"We know about this matter. If there is nothing else, you can go back first. We still need to continue discussing it." Old He waved his hand, indicating that they could leave first.
Ning Jing and Xu Fuyi couldn't help showing a look of disappointment on their faces. Although they had guessed that the ancestors would definitely not lift the seal immediately after arriving, they still felt a little disappointed when they knew the result.
The two of them respectfully left the conference hall. As soon as they came out, Mr. He set up an isolation formation inside the hall to prevent the confidential content inside from being overheard by others.
The ancestors and leaders of Haoyue Sect and Xiaoyao Sect were still staying inside, and even Senior Aotian stayed inside with them.
