Chapter 834: Chapter 559: Certifying the Tao, Reaching the Other Shore, Today!
The record in the myth...
The ethereal will...
Greatly enhances one’s own fortune...
Hou Shisan’s implicit, excited murmurs made Qin Zheng’s heart tighten, instantly confirming that the other had indeed sensed his presence!
It’s just that there’s an invisible barrier between the two, cutting off the channel for communication, so Hou Shisan can only vaguely sense his presence.
In other words... this is not a mere memory illusion, but a real scenario that was unfolding in the Ancient Realm, within the Heavenly Pool Clan many ages past!
Even though Qin Zheng had long been aware of the power of the Merit Scroll, everything happening now still once again refreshed his understanding of the scroll’s power.
To be able to throw his consciousness back to times before a catastrophic event, within an Ancient Clan, such power is simply beyond imagination!
And with his suspicions confirmed, Qin Zheng promptly suppressed distracting thoughts and concentrated his mind on Hou Shisan’s sight, observing the current events more carefully.
It was at this moment.
"Tao Ancient Inheritance!!"
Hou Shisan muttered again, then quickly gathered his thoughts, focusing his mind on the figure in front of him, towering like a mountain, his eyes burning more intensely.
He had previously been hesitant, intending to conservatively choose the Divine Ancient Inheritance, to ensure gaining rewards in this Ancestor Tomb, so he could participate in the Ten Thousand Clan Competition with even greater strength.
But after noticing a subtle change within his body and recalling descriptions from the ancient myths, he decided to take a gamble, forgoing the certain Divine Ancient Inheritance in hopes of seizing a more powerful opportunity!
And the result now did not disappoint him; he indeed encountered a Tao Ancient Level inheritance!
As long as he can digest this Tao Ancient Level inheritance before the competition begins, he will have the confidence to break into the top ten of the Ten Thousand Clan Competition!
By then, his name, Hou Shisan, would be as revered as that of the ancient ancestor, passed down through generations among the Sky Pool Clan, admired by all!
Hou Shisan thought of this while stepping forward, but under the pressure of the Tao Ancient Realm, each step required tenfold more effort than the previous!
In just a few short steps, Hou Shisan had already pushed his internal strength to the limit, expanding it to 120 times its usual power, just to resist the pressure from the Tao Ancient Realm.
When he arrived before the towering figure, he immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Hou Shisan of the Sky Pool Clan, here for the Ten Thousand Clan Competition, I apologize for disturbing the ancestor’s spirit, please forgive me!"
After he said this, the pressure that seemed poised to crush him into dust vanished instantly.
"Ten Thousand Clan Competition?"
A deep voice emerged from the ’mountain’.
Hou Shisan’s expression remained unchanged, maintaining his respectful bow as he responded once more, "Yes, ancestor, it’s indeed the Ten Thousand Clan Competition!"
"For this Ten Thousand Clan Competition, the elders of the clan have discussed and decided to open the Ancestor Tomb and allow the nine selected individuals to enter and seek opportunities for breakthroughs!"
"Therefore, junior appears here, presumptuously disturbing the ancestor’s spirit!"
Hou Shisan’s tone was neither arrogant nor submissive, and combined with the bloodline perception of the same Sky Pool Clan, the ’mountain’ believed nine-tenths of his words instantly.
So in the next moment.
Swoosh!!
A streak of azure mystical light emerged from the ’mountain’, rolling like a tornado to envelop its massive body, then gradually shrinking until it reached a normal person’s height under Hou Shisan’s gaze.
Boom!
The azure light, resembling a cocoon, suddenly scattered.
A handsome man with a tall figure, white hair, and green garments appeared in Hou Shisan’s sight.
But at this moment, there was a fingertip-sized hole in the handsome man’s forehead, from which blood continuously emerged and transformed into red light before dissipating, giving an eerie impression that spoiled the man’s aura.
Meanwhile, Qin Zheng, watching from afar, saw the hole in the man’s forehead and had an immediate notion: this hole... was pierced by an arrow!
Yet the Sky Pool Clan excels in the path of archery; who could surpass a Tao Ancient Realm Sky Pool tribesman in archery?
And directly shoot to kill with a single arrow!
Could it be that within the Ancient Clan, there existed beings more skilled in archery than the Sky Pool Clan, or perhaps an entity of the Ancient Realm intervened, using its Realm advantage to shoot this figure?
Qin Zheng’s thoughts wandered.
Hou Shisan again respectfully addressed, "Hou Shisan of the Sky Pool Clan greets the ancestor!"
The handsome youth gently shook his head and said, "Merely a wandering spirit surviving with the aid of a Divine Artifact, you being a prodigy of the Spirit Ancient Realm will surely tread the path of the Tao Ancient Realm, no need for such respect."
Hou Shisan’s expression grew solemn, immediately responding earnestly, "Strength is not the measure of respect; the ancestor fought till the fall for our clan, and naturally, we descendants must show utmost reverence."
The handsome youth shook his head in silence at this, only casting a peculiar glance at Hou Shisan, his eyes revealing a few moments of intrigue.
But after a few glances, he withdrew his gaze and opened his mouth again to speak, "Your ’Heavenly Bow Path’ has reached Great Achievement, it is not much weaker than a typical Divine Ancient Realm."
"The inheritance of the Divine Ancient Realm indeed cannot offer you much aid, though I am Tao Ancient, able to help you advance ’Heavenly Bow Path’ to Perfection, however..."
