Chapter 973: Chapter 429 Ancestral Blood Technique

Ziyuan Ancestor, clad in a black robe, with the laws of Ultimate Reasoning flowing around him.

His entire form appeared not as a living being but rather as an incarnation of some sort of rule.

He stood beyond the sky canopy, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

After an indeterminate amount of time, a figure in a black robe appeared beside Ziyuan Ancestor.

This black-robed figure exuded a powerful aura.

It was indeed a person of Ultimate Reasoning.

Apart from the old ancestor, this person was the first among Ziyuan Tian, the only minor practitioner of Ultimate Reasoning.

Sun Gods are seldom seen, and in the Sixfold Heavens, Ultimate Reasoners are absolute big shots.

For clans like the Ziyuan, originating from Bloodlines, they may also be bounded by their Bloodlines.

It’s tough for such a branch, which has produced a Great Ultimate Reasoner, to produce another Sun God.

Compared to that, clans like the Mo Luo Clan, lacking a Great Ultimate Reasoner, have a greater number of ordinary Sun Gods and Ultimate Reasoning Sun Gods than Ziyuan Tian.

Therefore, clans like Ziyuan, in order to expand, often go out to seek other Bloodline branches and incorporate those with talents.

Adding even one more Sun God is highly cherished.

"I pay respects to the old ancestor; Blood Robe has arrived at Ziyuan Tian, I wonder if the old ancestor wishes to see him?"

Ziyuan Tan gave his respectful salutations, not daring to look directly at the old ancestor.

In his perception, the old ancestor had no fixed form, but was rather an incarnation of Ultimate Reasoning.

Ziyuan Ancestor shook his head, "No."

Ziyuan Tan was not surprised upon hearing this.

"What status... shall he enjoy?" Ziyuan Tan asked for instructions.

At the same time, he was trying to deduce the level of Blood Robe’s Bloodline Talent.

"The first person beneath the Sun Gods of Ziyuan Tian," Ziyuan Ancestor said indifferently.

"As commanded," Ziyuan Tan wasn’t surprised.

Anyone who gained the old ancestor’s attention must at least possess a Bloodline with the talent of Ultimate Reasoning.

It’s perfectly normal for his treatment to be higher than Ziyuan Daxue’s.

"Here is a meeting gift; give it to him."

A flicker of light, and a black Storage Bag fell into Ziyuan Tan’s hand.

Ziyuan Tan received the Storage Bag, offering his respectful salutations again.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind: the current situation in Ziyuan Tian was somewhat lacking, and it was no wonder the old ancestor was so concerned.

After all, Ziyuan Tian only had him, one Ultimate Reasoner, and not many Sun Gods.

Compared to other branches, they were much inferior.

This also caused a loss of face for the old ancestor.

"Give him the ’Ancestral Blood Mantra’; tell him, if he cultivates it to the seventh layer, he can come see me, and I will grant him a small wish."

"Alright," Ziyuan Tan nodded, not daring to speak loudly.

"Oh yes, how many levels of the ’Ancestral Blood Mantra’ has Black Sword cultivated?"

"Reporting back to the old ancestor, the specifics are unknown, but according to the news that has spread in recent years, at least... the ninth layer," Ziyuan Tan replied.

Upon hearing this, Ziyuan Ancestor’s voice held a slight change, "The seventh layer is too simple, let him come see me when he reaches the ninth layer!"

Ziyuan Tan could hardly conceal his wry smile.

The old ancestor still liked to compare.

The ninth layer of "Ancestral Blood Mantra" was excessively difficult.

It would be nearly impossible for Blood Robe, even as a Sun God, to achieve it.

As for his daughter Ziyuan Daxue, who was now approaching Sun God status, she had only reached the sixth layer.

The "Ancestral Blood Mantra" is a very peculiar Cultivation Technique, its cultivation speed is related only to one’s Bloodline and comprehension.

The bond with the Bloodline is ninety-nine, and comprehension is one.

Black Sword, having obtained the "Ancestral Blood Mantra," stepped into the third layer within half a month, astounding onlookers.

This was also the fastest cultivation record of the "Ancestral Blood Mantra."

It even surpassed the elder of Ziyuan Ancestor’s master.

His master, who was also Black Sword’s master, was the leading elder among the nine of Black Demon Abyss...

...

"Why is everything so dark and grey around Black Demon Abyss? Doesn’t look much like a place for righteous Immortal Cultivation, does it?"

Qi Yuan scanned the surroundings.

The river here flowed with black water.

The trees were also dusky, seemingly artificial.

"Why are you ’judging by appearances’? Isn’t everyone supposed to be equal?" Ziyuan Daxue retorted with Qi Yuan’s own words.

Qi Yuan was taken aback, unable to come up with a response.

He then sighed, "I never thought the light of humanity would be found in Black Demon Abyss, in you.

You truly represent equality for all!"

Just then, space rippled, and a man in a black robe appeared.

He also had a horn on his head, but it did not make him appear rough; instead, it gave him an unexpectedly refined air.

Qi Yuan’s senses immediately tensed up.

There were many powerful beings in Ziyuan Tian.

He had sensed the covert probes of two supremely powerful beings before.

And now, another Ultimate Reasoner had appeared.

Seeing the newcomer, excitement spread across Ziyuan Daxue’s face, "Dad, I brought back Blood Robe!"

She waved her hands as if to claim credit.

The rough and unrestrained personality of Sister Niujiao disappeared, replaced by that of a little girl eager for recognition.

Ziyuan Tan showed a gentle smile, "What gift do you want this time?"

He was an Ultimate Reasoning Sun God, and he saw through his daughter’s little tricks, but he was willingly indulgent.

"I want a Black Cloud Blood Steed!" Ziyuan Daxue’s eyes shone with excitement, "Ever since I was little, I’ve always dreamed of having my own Black Cloud Blood Steed to travel the worlds—it’s so cool!"

On the way here, Qi Yuan had heard Ziyuan Daxue mention the Black Cloud Blood Steed more than once.

It was a kind of... mode of transportation.

For Cultivators.

On Blue Star, well, think motorcycle.

That fit perfectly with Sister Niujiao’s image in Qi Yuan’s mind.

Of course, the Black Cloud Blood Steed was not as simple as a motorcycle; it also came with a partial spatial jump capability.

Random ones.

You might activate it and have no idea where you’ll end up.

Thrilling, to say the least.

Considering the vastness of the Sixfold Heavens, even Sun Gods were unable to explore it fully.

"Your cousin died a few years back when the Black Cloud Blood Steed he was riding crashed in the Mystic Lands."

"You still want a Black Cloud Blood Steed?"

Upon hearing this, Sister Niujiao tensed up inside.

Some warmth crept into her heart.

"Dad, I shouldn’t be capricious."

"Capricious? I think your cousin’s Black Cloud Blood Steed was quite good. Do you want it?"

Sister Niujiao blinked her eyes, "..."
