Chapter 613: Chapter 604: The Reason for the Ancient Clan’s Emergence in the Modern World

"Now, do you still think your speed is fast?"

Mo Wangchen stood aloft in the sky, looking at Peng Zheng, who had burst forth from the ground and had already reverted to his human form.

"You!"

Peng Zheng’s mouth dribbled with blood as he stood atop the rubble, a wariness flashing in his eyes, "What kind of steps are those? They’re incredibly fast, and they seem to have some connections to my Kunpeng Clan?"

"To think you don’t even know the Nine Secrets of our Human Clan and yet you dare to be so arrogant here, claiming that the Human Clan is inferior to your Ancient Clan?"

"How ignorant and absurd!"

Within Baihua City, a group of Cultivators from the Human Clan sneered and jeered mockingly.

"Nine Secrets?"

Peng Zheng frowned. It seemed that he had heard something about it somewhere, but he didn’t know much.

"Very well, once my Sky Peng Dominator Body reaches Great Success, I will absolutely be the first to suppress you. Only the Kunpeng Clan can truly claim the ultimate speed. Sooner or later, your so-called ’special physiques’ of the Human Clan will once again grovel at the feet of my Ancient Clan—just you wait!"

In the end, he took a deep breath and turned his gaze toward Mo Wangchen.

With those words, he transformed back into the massive body of the Kunpeng, flapping his wings, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the sky.

"Brother Mo’s supreme elegance, to think that with the cultivation of the Saint Venerable Realm, you could suppress a young king of the Ancient Clan—it’s truly commendable."

When Mo Wangchen returned to Baihua City, Xia Jiujian and others approached him, greeting him courteously with bowed hands.

Mo Wangchen smiled and returned the greeting, "Brother Xia, with your sword that beheaded the dragon, upholding the might of our Human Clan, I dare not compare myself with you."

The conversation between the two caused a sparkle in the eyes of many bystanders.

These two, one of them an absolute top expert among all the Divine Sons of the current era, the other a most promising genius of the Human Clan, who had comprehended three Law Phenomenons, comparable to the Ancient Saints.

What was important was that Mo Wangchen’s Swordsmanship also appeared to be extremely powerful.

Would there be a day when the two of them would clash?

If such a day really came, that scene would surely be thrilling.

"With the rise of the Ancient Royal Family, and many young kings stepping forth, it’s a great trial for our Human Clan; who knows what will happen in the future?" Ye Fan, the Divine Son of the Infinite Sect, spoke from the side.

Chu Feng added, "Indeed, this grand age had already reached a certain level of prosperity, but now, with the advent of the Ancient Royal Family, this situation, at present, could likely be compared to the Ancient era, right?"

"It’s hard to say if it’s comparable to the Ancient era, but it should be considered, after the Ancient era, one of the most flourishing ages," Xia Jiujian remarked.

"In such a grand era, those who stand out will be able to leave their names for all eternity and be revered by future generations. The times create heroes. Our Heavenly Gang hasn’t seen someone like Immortal King Nangong Mie in many years," a Divine Son from one of the Sacred Lands sighed.

"In ancient times, the Immortal Sect of Inquiry had a Saint Master, the Immortal King Nangong Mie, who swept across his peers, suppressed the strong, and left behind a glorious name. It is said that, in that era, he alone defended the Human Clan for ten thousand years, preventing the Ancient Clan from acting rashly. This is the pride of our Human Clan."

Upon these words, everyone nodded in agreement. Regardless of their stance, the contribution of Immortal King Nangong Mie to the Human Clan was worthy of reverence by all in later generations.

Xia Jiujian said, "During the era of the Immortal King, the Ancient Royal Family had already shown signs of decline. Otherwise, without him alone, it would have been tough to defend the dignity of our Human Clan. During that most prosperous period for our Human Clan, the declining Ancient Clan was still able to stand on equal footing with us. It’s hard to imagine just how powerful they were during the era when they ruled the Heavenly Gang."

"Our Infinite Sect’s ancient texts do record some events from that epoch. When the Ancient Royal Family was at its peak, there were a hundred Ancient Kings who coexisted, each of them a supreme being comparable to the Immortal King," Ye Fan said.

"The reemergence of the Ancient Royal Family might not necessarily be a good omen for our time." At this moment, Liuli Divine Girl in the crowd suddenly spoke.

"Why would the Immortal Princess say that?" The crowd was puzzled, their eyes turning towards Jiang Yuhang.

However, before she could speak, Mo Wangchen, who had remained silent, was the first to open his mouth, "The Min Huan Cataclysm!"

"The Min Huan Cataclysm?"

The crowd was startled, somewhat baffled.

"Brother Mo, are you referring to the Min Huan Army that once invaded our Heavenly Gang in the past?" Xia Jiujian’s heart shook, a sharp light bursting in his eyes.

In fact, very few knew about the Min Huan issue; among All Holy Lands, perhaps only some Saint Masters were aware of it.

Xia Jiujian had also heard of it by chance, when mentioned by the Yijian Saint Master.

"The common people only know of the Great Ancient Battle, and the collapse of Heaven and Earth, but very few know what caused that war. The Min Huan is the most terrifying disaster of our Heavenly Gang. Throughout the ancient years, there were several clashes, and even figures from the Ancient Clan had joined the army to resist the Min Huan."

"This time, the Ancient Royal Family has appeared, and my guess is, it is not because they want to restore their former glory, but rather, the Min Huan is approaching, and it has awoken those Ancient Kings from their deep slumber!" Jiang Yuhang said with shining eyes.

"So, the Princess means that the primary purpose of the Ancient Clan’s emergence isn’t to contend with our Human Clan, but that they had foreseen the imminent onset of the Min Huan Cataclysm?" Xia Jiujian furrowed his brows.

Being born in the current era, he hadn’t experienced the Ancient Great Battle of Heaven and Earth, so naturally, he couldn’t truly understand just how terrifying such a catastrophe could be.

But it wasn’t hard for him to imagine how the Ancient Battle must have shattered Heaven and Earth into countless smaller planes, forming the fragmented Heavenly Gang of today, suggesting how shockingly devastating the war must have been once it erupted.

"To my knowledge, at the end of Ancient times, the Min Huan had also once invaded. At that time, our Heavenly Gang didn’t have even one Immortal Realm Great Power. The arrival of the Min Huan hundred emperors posed a grave threat to Heavenly Gang. But the fragmentation of Heavenly Gang must have occurred after the end of Ancient times. During that period, it was impossible for Immortal Realm Great Powers to be born, so how could Heaven and Earth have been shattered?"

Mo Wangchen frowned, puzzled by many things.

During the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm, the battle they had experienced was at the end of the Ancient times, and only an Immortal’s body was stationed in Heavenly Gang, with no Quasi-Immortal Realm Great Powers—so how could it possibly have resulted in the collapse of Heaven and Earth?

Jiang Yuhang smiled, "What Brother Mo spoke of is the Canglan battlefield of Ancient times, right? At the end of the Ancient times, Heavenly Gang was still intact. Throughout the ancient years, Canglan had seen many great beings emerge, but for some reason, that era was Canglan’s most dim."

"Before the division of Heavenly Gang, the entire continent was vast, even Divine Powers found it hard to traverse it. Thus, at that time, there were many battlefields like Canglan in existence, where not having Immortal Realm Great Powers didn’t mean other battlefields didn’t either..."

"Is that so?" Mo Wangchen was taken aback, finally understanding.

"The Ancient Clan has appeared because the Min Huan Cataclysm is approaching. Will our Heavenly Gang once again relive the wretched years of ancient times?"

All present were shaken to their cores, struggling to calm their hearts.
