At that moment, Yuan Zhexian immediately spoke up, saying, "Senior, I have a favor to ask."
Upon hearing Yuan Zhexian's words, Chi Li's face showed a hint of doubt. He looked at Yuan Zhexian and slowly asked, "Young friend, there's no need to be so formal. Please speak freely."
"I will never shirk my responsibility as long as it is within my power."
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhexian immediately used his powerful immortal energy to condense the appearances of Yuan Haoran, Yuan Ruochu, and others.
Under Yuan Zhexian's control, these images came to life, as if they were real people.
Yuan Zhexian pointed to these images and said to Chi Li, "Senior, these people are my followers. For some reason, they accidentally entered the Nine Netherworld some time ago."
Yuan Zhexian's voice revealed a hint of anxiety as he continued, "I have been searching for them for hundreds of years, but I have never been able to find their whereabouts."
"Therefore, I humbly request that you do me this favor and help me find their whereabouts."
Upon hearing Yuan Zhexian's words, Chi Li replied without hesitation, "I see. This is nothing more than a trivial matter."
"I will give the order immediately, and have my people search for them throughout the Nine Netherworlds."
"Once found, we will bring them safely to my Chili tribe."
When Yuan Zhexian heard that Chi Li had so readily agreed to his request, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He nodded quickly to express his gratitude to Chi Li.
Subsequently, Yuan Zhexian decided to leave Xiao Qi and Shen Gong in the Chi Li tribe to await news, while he himself would go to the ancestral land with Chi Li.
The Land of the Ancestors is a mysterious and extraordinary space, an absolutely sacred place for the You Clan.
This vast plain, like the heart of the earth, exudes a rich spiritual energy, the intensity of which is comparable to the Yuan Palace of the Yuan Clan.
When Yuan Zhexian stepped into this space, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
He looked around and saw nearly a hundred huge pillars made of some unknown material standing on the vast plain.
These pillars soar into the clouds, each engraved with ancient and mysterious celestial patterns. These patterns intertwine like stars in the universe, forming a unique design.
These pillars are arranged in a triangular pattern, resembling a mysterious formation.
At the very top, and in the very center, stands a golden pillar, as dazzling as the sun.
On either side of this golden pillar, there are four yellow pillars.
Further down were more than ninety orange pillars. Although these pillars were not as eye-catching as the yellow pillars, they also exuded a powerful aura.
What's even more surprising is that a person sits cross-legged on each pillar, their eyes closed and seemingly asleep.
Of these orange pillars, one was completely empty.
Just then, Chi Li brought Yuan Zhexian to the very center.
Chi Li bowed and clasped his hands in greeting to the people on the four yellow pillars, and then said, "Ancestor, the World Ancestor once said that I have found the person who possesses the source power of the earth."
His voice echoed in the space, carrying a solemn and dignified atmosphere.
Just then, one of the elderly men, whose face was extremely aged, suddenly closed his eyes and slowly said, "Chi Li, you should know very well that we have searched for countless years, and even entered the Immortal Realm to explore, but the result is still nothing."
Although his voice was incredibly old, it contained boundless majesty, inspiring awe in all who heard it.
Then he continued, "Not to mention in our Nine Netherworld, if such a person really existed, we would probably have discovered him long ago."
At this point, the old man paused slightly, then warned in a serious tone, "If what you said today is not true, then you should know what the consequences will be."
Upon hearing this, Chi Li broke out in a cold sweat. He dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly bowed again, saying with trepidation, "Your Majesty, I would never dare to deceive you in the slightest!"
Immediately afterwards, Chi Li pointed to Yuan Zhexian beside him and said, "That person is my young friend beside me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other four people sitting on the yellow pillar immediately opened their eyes as if they had been electrocuted, and all turned their gazes toward Yuan Zhexian.
It was as if they wanted to see through his body and understand everything about him.
These four gazes, like four sharp swords, pierced straight at Yuan Zhexian, making him feel an unprecedented pressure.
Then, the old man looked at Yuan Zhexian and spoke again, "Young friend, would you be so kind as to let us witness the power of the earth's source?"
Without hesitation, Yuan Zhexian stretched out a hand, and instantly, a powerful force of the Great Dao surged forth like a raging torrent, appearing before everyone.
Upon seeing this, the four people trembled slightly involuntarily, their faces filled with barely suppressed excitement, and they exclaimed in unison, "This really is authentic source power!"
One of them said excitedly, "Back then, the Emperor left a trace of the Earth Source Power in us, with the aim of finding the person who could resonate with him and possess the Earth Source Power."
The other person added, "Through countless years, we have searched tirelessly, yet we have never found it."
"I never expected that brat Chi Li would find it today!"
At this moment, another elder excitedly exclaimed, "Chi Li, you are truly a great hero of our You Clan!"
