People from the six major forces were the first to notice the death of their ancestors, and the top leaders organized an emergency meeting immediately. However, before their meeting started, the death of Ji Haoxuan brought them an even greater shock. Since Ji Haoxuan was the ancestor of Hongmeng, although a fake ancestor of Hongmeng, his cultivation had reached the supreme level of the master of the high-dimensional universe. Therefore, it seemed that the entire Qiongzu universe was plunged into endless mourning, and all things seemed to be crying for him.
A deep feeling of sadness swept through all living beings like a violent storm, and they all felt this strong sadness. The living beings in the Qiongzu Universe had tears flowing from their eyes without realizing it. They didn't know why they were so sad, but the sadness in their hearts was so strong that they couldn't suppress it no matter what.
No one knew what was going on. In this depressed mood and fear of unknown things, some less courageous monks were driven crazy on the spot and spread the theory of doomsday everywhere, claiming that the Qiongzu Universe was about to be destroyed.
Not to mention, such remarks actually gained the support of quite a few monks, and everyone started to give in. Some monks with ulterior motives even added a lot of their own understanding to the remarks, and made up some rhetoric of "salvation" to attract believers in order to achieve their own ulterior motives.
However, even though the Qiongzu Universe was in chaos, no one from the six major forces spoke out.
Because only they knew what had happened. Their ancestor died without causing the world to mourn. This showed how powerful the person who caused the world to mourn was. In the entire Qiongzu universe, who else could cause such a scene? The answer was obvious. It could only be the Tianyi ancestor who had disappeared for trillions of years.
After reaching this conclusion, the top leaders of the six major forces could no longer sit still. Their own ancestors were gone, and the ancestor of Tianyi was also gone. Doesn't this mean that the entire Qiongzu Universe is now ownerless?
In this world, no one wants to be inferior to others. Are there any kings, princes, generals or ministers of different races? Who doesn't want to be respected? Who doesn't want to be invincible?
Therefore, without the absolute suppression of their own ancestors, the six major forces fell into chaos at the first moment. Even those members who were ignorant of the world were forced to choose sides. The family forces affiliated with them naturally could not escape the fate of choosing sides. In this case, naturally no one would care about those insignificant troubles.
Trillions of years of peace collapsed within a few days, and no one wanted to miss the opportunity.
Li Mu couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw all this. He wanted to take care of it and take advantage of the situation, but at this time, the Heavenly Dao of the Qiongzu Universe actually rejected him and seemed to want to expel him from the Qiongzu Universe.
For this reason, Li Mu had no choice but to give up the idea of robbing.
Before the Heavenly Dao of the Qiongzu Universe completely expelled him, Li Mu came to the Ji family's ancestral land, the Tianji Domain, intending to bring the undercover Ji Gulan he had planted there back to the Lingxiao Universe.
As one of the elders of Lingxiao Palace, Ji Gulan joined Lingxiao Palace very early, but not long after joining Lingxiao Palace, she and many other palace members were sent to their respective forces as undercover agents. Now, so many years have passed, and the undercover agents in the same batch as her had been recalled one after another 10 trillion years ago, but she still stayed in the Ji family. She really sacrificed too much.
With Li Mu's current strength, even the six major forces in their heyday pose no threat to him, not to mention that the six major forces are in chaos now. Therefore, it is meaningless for Ji Gulan to be an undercover agent anymore.
For such a model undercover agent and a person of great merit, Li Mu would naturally not destroy the bridge after crossing it. It was worth it for him to personally make a trip to bring him back to Lingxiao Universe.
At this time, in a palace somewhere in the Ji family, a man in a white robe stood with his hands behind his back. He raised his proud head and looked coldly at Ji Gulan who was sitting above the palace. He said lightly: "Eighth Elder, you are a smart man. It's time to make a choice now."
"Second Elder, are you so impatient to seize power when our ancestor's body is still warm?" Ji Gulan said calmly.
"The Ji family cannot be without a leader for a day." The second elder snorted coldly, "Now that the ancestor has passed away, various forces are eyeing us covetously. Our Ji family must elect a new head to lead the family as soon as possible. The position of the leader of the six major forces cannot be lost!"
Ji Gulan smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "In that case, I think the third elder is more suitable to be the head of the family."
"Ji Gulan, don't be shameless. I am not here to negotiate with you today. Either bring your men to stand on my side, or die!" The second elder said coldly.
At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a purple gold crown rushed in with a large group of people, and said coldly: "Second Elder, you are too overbearing, aren't you? My Ji family is the number one family in the Qiongzu Universe. Can't you tolerate even a different voice?"
"Hey~! Isn't this my second brother? What? Do you really want to compete with me for the position of the head of the family? Do you know what seniority means? I am your eldest brother, and I should be the head of the family!" said the second elder. The second elder is Ji Hao's eldest son, and the one in front of him whom he calls second brother is Ji Hao's second son, currently serving as the third elder of the Ji family.
"What a joke! We are not those local emperors in the mortal world. The position of the head of the family should naturally belong to the one with virtue! There is an order of seniority? Why didn't you dare to say there is an order of seniority when Haoxuan became the head of the family?" The third elder sneered.
"Shut up! Second brother, do you really have to make things difficult for me? The Qiongzu clan is in chaos now. It will not be good for my Ji family to continue wasting time like this!" the second elder shouted.
"Haha, big brother, I don't want to do this either, but so many clansmen support me, I can't let you all down. So, you withdraw from the competition for the position of family head, and when I become the family head, you will take over the position of grand elder." The third elder said with a smile.
The Second Elder closed his eyes upon hearing this, as if he was making a very painful decision. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and left the hall in a flash. When he reappeared, he was already standing in the void dozens of light years away. His eyes revealed a determination, and he said in a deep voice: "Ji Lin attempted to overthrow my Ji family. Such behavior is unforgivable. Come, arrest Ji Lin and his followers!"
As the second elder finished speaking, tens of thousands of warships suddenly flew out from the void. They were arranged neatly and majestically, like a giant steel dragon, tightly surrounding the palace below.
On the warships, hundreds of millions of monks dressed in Ji family costumes held ice blades in their hands, with solemn expressions on their faces, as if they were ready to launch a fatal attack at any time.
Ji Lin in the palace saw this and his face suddenly changed. He originally thought that the Second Elder was just here to demonstrate or negotiate, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually take direct action.
The ancestor had only passed away for a few days, but the second elder had already gathered so many people. It was obvious that his wolfish ambitions had been going on for more than a year or two.
At this moment, the third elder frowned deeply and was a little panicked.
