At the same time, in the very center of the vast plaza of the ancestral temple's main hall, another identical spatial rift quietly appeared.
In an instant, Yuan Zhexian's imposing figure emerged slowly from the spatial rift, like a ghost.
At this very moment, Yuan Haoran, Yuan Ruochu, and many other familiar faces are all here.
Moreover, a large number of unfamiliar faces were gathered around, some with solemn expressions, others whispering among themselves.
There were many people exchanging spells in the square when suddenly a spatial rift appeared out of nowhere in the distance. Everyone was startled and immediately stopped what they were doing, quickly assuming a fighting stance.
After all, only a peerless powerhouse with the strength to reach the Quasi-Emperor realm can easily tear through spatial rifts and teleport over long distances!
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire square became extremely tense.
Just as everyone was finally able to clearly see the newcomer's face, they were all taken aback.
"Son of God?"
At this moment, Yuan Haoran and his clansmen shouted in unison, their faces filled with astonishment.
Yuan Zhexian slowly stepped out of the spatial rift. His gaze swept over the crowd, and he suddenly noticed that there were many unfamiliar faces in this ancestral court square.
Moreover, without exception, these strangers were all peerless experts who had reached the Supreme Saint Realm, and the aura emanating from each of them was so powerful that it was terrifying.
Yuan Zhexian first nodded slightly to Yuan Haoran, then asked with a puzzled look, "Who are they?"
Seeing Yuan Zhexian's suspicious look, Yuan Yan'er quickly stepped forward and respectfully explained to him, "Divine Child, they all joined our ancestral court in the last few decades."
"Decades?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian was slightly taken aback.
"Divine Child. Not long after you founded this ancestral temple, you chose to go into seclusion for cultivation,"
"More than seventy years have passed since then!"
"In these seventy years, my cousin Haoran and his family have not only spread the fame of our ancestral temple far and wide, but have also made our ancestral temple's prestige soar to its zenith and awe-inspiring throughout the seven realms."
"That is why, in the future, a steady stream of powerful individuals from all walks of life have come to join our ancestral temple."
Yuan Yan'er recounted in an orderly manner the various changes and developments that had taken place in the ancestral temple during this period.
"This breakthrough actually took a full seventy years!"
Yuan Zhexian murmured softly, as if he couldn't believe it.
He slowly raised his head and turned his gaze to Yuan Haoran and the others.
Time flies, and years pass quickly. After seventy long years of trials and tribulations, Yuan Haoran and his companions have seen their strength rapidly improve.
Yuan Haoran has now become a powerful being at the fifth level of the Supreme Saint Realm, and the aura emanating from him is terrifying.
Yuan Ruocuo and the others also made rapid progress and successfully advanced to the fourth level of the Supreme Saint Realm.
As for Yuan Changkong and the others, they were no less impressive, all of them stepping into the third stage of the Supreme Saint Realm.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Zhexian slightly turned his head and turned his gaze to the ancient demon lord, Jian Wushuang, the sword disciple of the sword sect, Dao Wudao, the Dao disciple of the Shangqing sect, as well as Luo Qiye, the holy son of the Dayan Holy Land, Yun Shangtian, the divine son of the Yun family, and others.
He paused briefly, then asked, "So, what are they doing?"
Just then, Yuan Haoran quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands, and replied, "Divine Child, after Jian Wushuang and Dao Wudao learned that we were establishing an ancestral court, they did not hesitate to come to us immediately and expressed their willingness to join us."
"But you were in seclusion at the time, so they had to stay in the ancestral temple to wait for news."
Now, all that remains is for the divine child to speak.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian's gaze immediately fell on Jian Wushuang and Dao Wudao, his eyes revealing a hint of scrutiny.
These two individuals have actually reached the profound level of the fourth stage of the Saint Realm!
Among them, Jian Wushuang exuded an extremely terrifying sword aura, as if he could tear apart the void and cleave mountains and rivers.
When one is without Tao, one's whole body is surrounded by waves of Tao intent, like an immortal descending to earth, transcending the mundane.
Just then, Yuan Zhexian turned to look at the Ancient Demon Lord and asked curiously, "What about her?"
Upon hearing this question, Yuan Haoran's face flushed slightly, and he began to stammer, stammering for a long time before finally deciding how to answer.
He stood there stunned for a long while before finally mustering the courage to say, "Divine Child, I...I'm in love!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
You should know that Yuan Haoran possesses the second-ranked Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo among the three thousand physiques!
Yuan Zhexian has always believed that in Yuan Haoran's heart, the most important goal is to continuously climb to the peak of cultivation and reach the Great Dao.
However, at this moment, he never expected that this peerless figure who was single-mindedly pursuing supreme power would fall in love, and that the object of his affection would be the ancient demon lord.
This sudden news truly surprised Yuan Zhexian.
Then, the immortal Yuan Zhe pressed on impatiently, asking, "Tell me quickly, what exactly happened between you two?"
Just then, Yuan Haoran walked forward with a smile and naturally took the ancient demon lord's fair and jade-like hand.
Then he slowly began to speak: "Actually, at the beginning, I was looking for powerful opponents to fight and seeking a breakthrough in my cultivation by constantly accumulating practical experience."
"On the other hand, we strive to spread the fame of our ancestral court throughout the entire Seventh World."
"However, one day, I happened to encounter her being frantically pursued by several sixth-level Saint Realm experts from the myriad races of ferocious beasts, and their goal was to steal her incomparably precious Demon Condensation Pearl!"
At this point, Yuan Haoran paused slightly, glanced at the Ancient Demon Lord beside him, and then continued, "At that time, she was already seriously injured and in extremely poor physical condition. She had no ability whatsoever to resist the fierce pursuit of those several extremely ferocious sixth-level Supreme Saint Realm experts."
"In the blink of an eye, at this critical moment, I stepped forward without hesitation. After a fierce battle, I finally succeeded in killing all those vicious and powerful beasts from various races!"
At this point, a hint of pride unconsciously appeared on Yuan Haoran's face.
Then he changed the subject, his tone becoming much gentler: "From then on, in the time that followed, she and I often got together to exchange ideas on cultivation, practice martial arts, and went through countless bloody battles together."
"And so, as time passed little by little, decades went by without us realizing it. During these days of living and working together, our feelings for each other gradually warmed up, and slowly a kind of indescribable emotion began to grow."
Finally, we made a vow to stay together for life.
