The Eighth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan, whose real name was Yuan Qitian, was a Great Emperor Realm expert who had existed since the beginning of time. He could have remained asleep for countless years, but now that the Yuan Clan had produced a peerless Qilin Child like Yuan Zhexian, coupled with the emergence of the Shangcang Clan, the Eighth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan had no choice but to be awakened from his slumber by the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan. This was because the Ninth Ancestor needed someone with even greater power to protect Yuan Zhexian.
Even the Eighth Ancestor, a Great Emperor, was forced to retreat repeatedly by the energy of this ancient sword. That's why the Ninth Ancestor was so shocked.
At this moment, the power emanating from the ancient sword in the void of the ancestral land grew stronger and stronger, seemingly capable of destroying an entire world with just a wisp of its force. The Eighth and Ninth Ancestors stared solemnly at the increasingly terrifying power of the ancient sword. They could sense that the ancient sword's power was now beyond their control.
A fierce wind was blowing across the ancestral land, and the ancient sword's violent power was running rampant. Just as the ancient sword's power was about to reach its peak, a cold voice rang out.
"Noise".
The crowd looked toward the source of the sound and discovered that it was coming from the fifth of the eight ice coffins at the front.
The cold voice echoed within the ancestral land, and then the sound visibly struck the ancient sword. The ancient sword then emitted a buzzing sound and fell silent, and the terrifying power it had been emitting disappeared.
"It was actually this person who made the move." The Ninth Ancestor said with a smile as the crisis was averted.
“We’ve disturbed this peace and quiet, and she’s angry.” The Eighth Patriarch immediately laughed and said.
Yuan Zhexian and Xiao Wangchuan were also stunned. Who was this person? Upon seeing this, the Eighth Ancestor said to Yuan Zhexian, "Zhexian, the fifth ice coffin contains the Fifth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan."
"The Five Ancestors?" Not only Yuan Zhexian, but even Yuan Xun and Yuan Changsheng were unfamiliar with this term.
At that moment, the Eighth Ancestor waved his hand, and a green light instantly entered Yuan Changsheng's body, restoring Yuan Changsheng's injuries to full health. Yuan Changsheng immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Eighth Ancestor." The Eighth Ancestor waved his hand but remained silent.
At this moment, a massive dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky above the Yuan Clan. The cloud slowly spun, surrounded by countless terrifying, world-destroying divine lightning bolts. From within the cloud emerged a cold, majestic, and unapproachable eye. This eye looked down upon all living beings with an air of superiority.
The dark clouds and the terrifying aura emanating from those eyes awakened all the ancient figures of the Nine Heavens forces from their slumber.
An ancient quasi-emperor-level expert said, "This is... the Heavenly Dao?"
Another ancient being said to himself: That is the direction of the Yuan Clan of Taiyuan Heaven. Why did the Heavenly Dao appear in the territory of the Yuan Clan? Could it be that the Yuan Clan has some heaven-defying thing or person who has been born, making the Heavenly Dao feel apprehensive and thus descending upon the Yuan Clan?
Some ancient beings were overjoyed: "Hahaha, the Yuan Clan, powerful and domineering for countless eras, have now provoked the Heavenly Dao and are reaping what they sowed."
An ancient being also said, "I've long disliked the Yuan Clan. Now that they've provoked the Heavenly Dao, they'll surely face divine punishment. The Yuan Clan is finished."
At this moment, countless powerful spiritual senses and divine thoughts pierced through the heavens and looked toward the Yuan Clan.
Sensing countless powerful spiritual senses and divine thoughts, the Ninth Ancestor instantly appeared from the ancestral land in the sky above the Yuan Clan and said to the countless spiritual senses and divine thoughts: "I'll give you ten breaths. Get out of the Yuan Clan immediately, or else, I'll kill you!"
One of the spiritual consciousnesses said, "The Heavenly Dao has now descended upon your clan, and your Yuan clan is doomed. Yet you remain so arrogant."
The Ninth Ancestor also sneered and then his killing intent surged. He struck out with a palm directly at that spiritual consciousness.
"Ah~~." The spiritual consciousness let out a scream.
That spiritual consciousness was then directly shattered by the Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan, and his physical body, which was hundreds of millions of miles away, was also shattered by a single palm strike.
Countless spiritual senses were also shocked, marveling at the terrifying strength of the Nine Ancestors of the Yuan Clan. They immediately said, "Ninth Ancestor of the Yuan Clan, please show mercy. We will leave now."
Then, the Ninth Ancestor waved his hand, and a golden energy shield enveloped the entire Yuan Clan, cutting off outside access.
At this moment, the pressure from the Heavenly Dao grew increasingly terrifying, and a cold voice also appeared within the Yuan Clan.
"Such a rebellious thing should not appear at this time. Since it has appeared, let it be annihilated."
As soon as the Heavenly Dao finished speaking, the voice of the Fifth Ancestor rang out again from the fifth ice coffin in the ancestral land. "How dare a mere avatar of the Heavenly Dao unleash divine punishment upon my clan?"
This was the Heavenly Dao, which was originally indifferent, looking into the depths of the Yuan Clan's ancestral land. When it saw the first ice coffin in front of it, it immediately showed a hint of surprise.
"There is such a being among the Yuan clan."
At this moment, the Fifth Ancestor spoke again: "Leave quickly. Don't disturb our peaceful dreams, or you, this Heavenly Dao avatar, will remain in the Yuan Clan."
The Heavenly Dao also glanced at the Yuan Clan with apprehension before disappearing. The huge dark clouds that had been obscuring the sky above the Yuan Clan slowly vanished, turning into a clear blue sky.
Meanwhile, countless spiritual senses outside, still awaiting the outcome, could neither hear nor see what was happening inside. However, the massive dark cloud of the Heavenly Dao and its cold, majestic, and inviolable eyes remained. But after a short while, the Heavenly Dao's eyes vanished, and the massive dark cloud slowly dissipated. The Yuan Clan remained intact, as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, everyone was speculating about why the Heavenly Dao hadn't sent down divine punishment. Was it the Yuan Clan's immense power? But that didn't make sense. There were clearly no signs of battle inside. Or had they made some kind of agreement with the Heavenly Dao? In short, countless spiritual senses and divine ideas wanted to know the truth.
As the Heavenly Dao receded, the Five Ancestors of the Ancestral Land also fell silent. The Eighth Ancestor and the Ninth Ancestor, who had just returned, also revealed a smug smile.
Yuan Zhexian was even more shocked at this moment. He did not expect that the Heavenly Dao clone would actually appear. This was also the first time Yuan Zhexian had come into contact with the Heavenly Dao. He could feel the terror of the Heavenly Dao. Even a clone was not something he could fight against in his current state.
Then the Eighth Ancestor said to Yuan Zhexian, "Zhexian, this sword has now been restored to the level of a quasi-immortal weapon, so it should be returned to you."
Yuan Zhexian also wanted to take this quasi-immortal artifact, but with his current strength, he estimated he couldn't even unleash one-tenth of its power, so taking it would be a waste. He then said, "Eighth Ancestor, you can keep this sword for now; it's of no use to me."
Upon seeing this, the Eighth Patriarch did not mince words and immediately said, "Since that's the case, then you should give this sword a name first."
“Uh…this sword has passed through the hands of my father, myself, and the Eighth Ancestor, so how about calling it the Three Elements Sword?” Yuan Zhexian said after a moment of contemplation.
"The Three Elements Sword... What a magnificent Three Elements Sword! I think that every time this sword passes through the hands of one of my Yuan Clan members, it should gain an additional element. That would make it even more meaningful," the Eighth Ancestor said happily.
This sword is currently the strongest weapon of our Yuan Clan. Remember, besides a few of us, don't let anyone else know about it. The weapon itself is inanimate, but some treacherous old fogies are alive. Then, with a thought, the Eighth Ancestor directly placed the Three Yuan Sword into his sea of consciousness.
