Wang Shouzhe’s mind stirred as he spoke, "Could there be so hidden truth in this?"
"Longzuo County was originally a pioneer county, with many directions for expansion. Ancestor Zhou Xuan chose this particular place to pioneer and establish the family for his own reasons."
"Back in the day, Ancestor Zhou Xuan was rely a direct lineage mber of the Longzuo Wang Family. The Longzuo Wang Family was struggling at the ti, declining continuously, even transitioning celestial humans was extrely difficult, and there weren’t many resources to nurture family mbers."
"Yet, Ancestor Zhou Xuan was born with an awakened bloodline, qualified to break through to the Celestial Human Realm. Hence, he was unwilling to spend his life being diocre."
"Therefore, Ancestor Zhou Xuan ventured out seeking opportunities and discovered an extrely hidden location belonging to the Divine Martial Dynasty relic from the Middle Ages in the Outer Domain. Relying on the blessing of this relic, Ancestor Zhou Xuan successfully ascended to the Spirit Platform Realm."
"However, when Ancestor Zhou Xuan discovered the relic, he did not obtain the greatest opportunity within it. Because of this, he held the Pioneer Order, established the Ping’an Wang Family in this area, hoping his descendants could gradually control the relic and derive endless benefits from it. Presently, this relic is rely about a thousand miles away from our Ping’an."
As Ancestor Longyan explained gently, the reason why Ancestor Zhou Xuan headed south in the beginning beca clear to everyone.
"So, there’s such a secret." Wang Shouzhe realized suddenly. Abruptly, his heart wavered, his expression changing slightly as he said, "Back then, about my father..."
In those years, the forr patriarch Wang Dingyue perished while seeking opportunities in the Outer Domain, a matter Wang Shouzhe had always found suspicious. After all, the family still had so surplus funds at that ti, and with a bit of effort, it was still possible to buy a Celestial Spirit Pill at a loss.
"Alas, speaking of which, it’s all my fault." Ancestor Longyan’s eyes flashed with a hint of bitterness. "Yes, back then when Ding Yue reached the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Realm, I discussed this matter with him. Opportunities were hard to co by, and both Qiong Yuan’s nephew and I had once explored that relic and gained benefits from it."
"Unexpectedly, fortune was so unfavorable, he encountered a Tier Four Ferocious Beast midway. Even though I did my utmost to protect him, I couldn’t save his life." Speaking of this, Ancestor Longyan’s gaze dimd with guilt, evidently distressed over Wang Dingyue’s death.
"Ancestor, what’s past is past. Besides, your condition wasn’t well at that ti, which also worsened your injury," Wang Shouzhe consoled softly, "However, Ancestor, what kind of relic is it exactly? How can one benefit from it? And what dangers does it hold?"
Wang Shouzhe asked a series of questions, expressing his bewildernt.
In his view, no matter how good ancient relics might be, one needs to be alive to enjoy them.
If it’s rely for a small Celestial Spirit Pill, it seems unworthy to venture into the Outer Domain. He would rather take his ti farming, using ti to accumulate strength for a grand breakthrough.
With the current financial strength of the Wang Family, buying a Celestial Spirit Pill wouldn’t severely injure their Primordial Qi anymore.
If things aren’t made clear or sufficient preparations aren’t in place, without a high level of certainty, he would absolutely refuse to venture deep into the Outer Domain for adventure.
"That relic is a trial land opened to outsiders by the Divine Martial Dynasty with the intention of recruiting promising young talents for the dynasty. It’s inherently non-dangerous, even if one fails the trial, there’s no risk to life."
"Back then, when Ancestor Zhou Xuan was at the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Realm, he passed the first trial, obtaining sothing known as a consolation prize... a stored Celestial Spirit Pill."
"Uh..."
Wang Shouzhe wiped a drop of cold sweat. What kind of relic is it? To call a Celestial Spirit Pill a consolation prize...
No wonder back in the day, the forr patriarch Wang Dingyue was eager to venture into the Outer Domain.
Given the Wang Family’s condition at the ti, if procuring a Celestial Spirit Pill was possible, it was worth risking life for.
"The difficulty of the first trial isn’t too great but isn’t too small either," Ancestor Longyan introduced. "The Gatekeeper is a demon puppet at the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Realm. If you can defeat it within the rules, you pass. If your Black Tortoise Combat Technique is well-mastered, you could manage to pass this trial."
"As for the Celestial Spirit Pill, I heard the Divine Martial Dynasty was extrely powerful, at its peak holding a territory unknown for hundreds of thousands of miles. A re Celestial Spirit Pill was nothing. If one could pass the second trial, the rewards are rich."
Ancestor Longyan continued, "The second trial involves simultaneously battling two demon puppets at the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining Realm! Once passed, you can obtain an elixir that improves bloodline aptitude."
"An elixir to improve bloodline aptitude?" Wang Shouzhe’s eyes brightened at this; what he lacked the most now was precisely this, rather than the Celestial Spirit Pill, which could be obtained more easily.
"I rember back then, I barely managed to pass the second trial, obtaining the bloodline improvent elixir and a Celestial Spirit Pill," Ancestor Longyan continued, "Unfortunately, my initial bloodline talent wasn’t very high, just around Middle Grade D. After consuming that elixir, it only reached around Middle Grade A, and did not awaken the Second Layer bloodline."
"But even so, when I ascended to the Spirit Platform Realm, my Primordial Water Bloodline transford into a Profound Ice Bloodline. Also, in terms of talent, I was much stronger than ordinary Second Layer bloodline bearers."
As Ancestor Longyan continued to narrate.
Wang Shouzhe finally understood, no wonder Ancestor Longyan’s combat power was so formidable.
Moreover, after she ascended to the Spirit Platform Realm, she surged forward with unstoppable montum, always placing Ancestor Xuanfu under her.
If it weren’t for that unexpected event back then, Ancestor Longyan might have already reached the Celestial Human Realm by now.
