Chapter 734: Chapter 753: Clues of the Primordial Spirit
“Hmm?”
“This person… I… I feel like I’ve seen him sowhere before!”
Minghe Ancestor muttered to himself as he looked at the appearance of the Primordial Spirit, which caused Ye Xuan’s complexion to change drastically, his aura fluctuating extrely.
“Think carefully, where have you seen him?” Ye Xuan asked breathlessly.
“Let think, this person is…!”
“It’s him?”
“No way, absolutely impossible, how could he still be alive?”
Suddenly, Minghe Ancestor let out a shocked roar, his entire body violently trembling, as if he had uncovered a huge secret.
“Who is he?”
Ye Xuan grabbed Minghe Ancestor’s shoulders, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and shook him intensely, revealing the extent of his agitation.
Originally, Ye Xuan had been disappointed, believing Minghe Ancestor did not know who the Primordial Spirit was. The re act of sketching the image of the Primordial Spirit was simply a stroke of luck, but to his trendous surprise, Minghe Ancestor recognized the identity of the Primordial Spirit.
“Speak, who is he?”
Looking at Minghe Ancestor’s shocked expression, Ye Xuan roared with urgency, his eyes already blood-red, for he was about to learn who the Primordial Spirit was.
“The Red Cloud Ancestor, this person is the Red Cloud Ancestor.”
Minghe Ancestor finally regained his composure from his shock and uttered a na, but to Ye Xuan, it left him montarily stunned.
“Red Cloud Ancestor?” Ye Xuan murmured to himself.
“Yes, it is the Red Cloud Ancestor. Even though endless ti has passed, and I had nearly forgotten this person, today upon seeing the appearance of Red Cloud, I recalled that it was indeed him,” declared Minghe Ancestor with conviction, absolutely certain.
“Pangu opened the sky, Hong Jun passed down the teachings. That year, when the Primordial Heaven and Earth had just been ford, there were yet no Saints; I had just taken shape from the Netherworld Blood Sea, not knowing how many years had passed. Hong Jun, the Ancestral Master, had beco a Saint by Cutting Three Corpses and announced to the Three Realms that he would disseminate teachings at the Zixiao Palace.”
“In that Zixiao Palace, I saw Red Cloud Ancestor once. His cultivation was already extrely high at that ti, but he had a gentle and kind nature, never vying for things with others. And yet, it was he who obtained the Seventh Hongng Purple Qi.”
“However, it was this Seventh Hongng Purple Qi that led to his downfall. As soon as he left the Zixiao Palace, he was besieged and killed by two Heavenly Emperors of the Demon Race, and many Quasi-Saints made their moves against him in the shadows. That battle shattered Heaven and Earth, and the Red Cloud Ancestor died tragically between them. The Hongng Purple Qi also disappeared without a trace at that ti.”
“It can’t be wrong, this person is the Red Cloud Ancestor, I’m certain I haven’t mistaken him.”
Minghe Ancestor spoke hastily, his face filled with doubt and uncertainty, “But he surely died, so how could he change his na and identity to beco the Primordial Spirit?”
At this mont,
Ye Xuan beca completely silent and motionless, as if he had not heard the words of Minghe Ancestor, his fists clenched tightly and his aura fluctuating intensely.
“The Hongng Purple Qi was indeed his doing!”
All of a sudden, Ye Xuan shouted fiercely, his eyes flashing with a sharp intensity, finally certain that the Hongng Purple Qi was sothing the Primordial Spirit deliberately allowed him to obtain.
“Tell , where does Red Cloud Ancestor’s origin lie?” Ye Xuan bellowed at Minghe Ancestor.
Looking at Ye Xuan’s agitated deanor, Minghe Ancestor furrowed his brows slightly and then slowly shook his head, “I don’t know, I really don’t. Legend has it that Red Cloud Ancestor was the first red cloud to take form between heaven and earth. I’ve never heard of him having any origins, and moreover, this person appeared for an extrely brief period, only once in the early Primordial years to listen to teachings at Zixiao Palace, before perishing between heaven and earth.”
“This can’t be right, it’s definitely not right!”
Suddenly, Ye Xuan muttered to himself, for he distinctly rembered the guidance from the Blood Sea Battlefield Primordial Spirit four years ago—another had manifested as a Primordial Spirit, an incarnation outside the body.
Furthermore, the Primordial Spirit had once said that his true self never appeared before Ye Xuan, fearing the attention of the Saints, and was a person who reigned supre and was revered as an ancestor in the Three Realms.
A supre and ancestral figure would certainly be well-known to the beings of the Three Realms.
But Red Cloud Ancestor perished between heaven and earth ages ago. Later generations wouldn’t even know of him, which was clearly contradictory.
“Is it possible that when Red Cloud Ancestor perished between heaven and earth, this red cloud was actually just soone’s incarnation?” Ye Xuan asked with astonishnt and doubt.
“Now that you ntion it, it’s indeed very possible. I personally witnessed Red Cloud die under the Chaos Bell wielded by Donghuang Taiyi, but Donghuang Taiyi said sothing utterly baffling,” said Minghe Ancestor in a grave tone.
“What did he say?”
“He offended soone, soone he could not afford to offend, and with a long sigh, he returned to the Ancient Demon Court,” Minghe Ancestor said solemnly, clearly conjuring the thought of sothing extrely terrible.
“Ye Xuan, you must realize that Red Cloud was a Quasi-Saint at that ti. If he was rely soone’s incarnation, yet dared to go to Zixiao Palace to listen to teachings, then this person is likely too terrifying,” Minghe Ancestor said, his voice trembling.
Mist, a vast fog. Ye Xuan thought he had known the true identity of the Primordial Spirit, but what ca was a great disappointnt.
If Red Cloud was also an incarnation of the Primordial Spirit, then who was his true self?
Soone who dared to listen to teachings before Hong Jun, a Sage, and even managed to obtain the Seventh Hongng Purple Qi?
Ye Xuan now could be certain that the Hongng Purple Qi in his possession was intentionally allowed to be obtained by the Primordial Spirit, who also sought to use it to destroy Ye Xuan’s path of Proving Dao with Power.
Considering this kind of plot, Ye Xuan broke out in a cold sweat. Had he not managed to break free at the last mont, had he truly chosen to beco a Saint through rit, he would likely have fallen into the Primordial Spirit’s trap.
At this mont, Ye Xuan felt an intense sense of horror, as if a pair of eyes was constantly watching him, ready to te out an irreversible doom should he make any mistake.
“Donghuang Taiyi, perhaps Donghuang Taiyi might know sothing of this Primordial Spirit you speak of,” Minghe Ancestor said with a heavy tone.
Clearly, in today’s conversation with Ye Xuan, Minghe Ancestor felt horror-stricken, sensing that he had fallen into a vast sche, with a premonition of extre danger.
This feeling was intensely strong, causing Minghe Ancestor’s hair to stand on end.
“Donghuang Taiyi?”
Ye Xuan muttered to himself, as if he had grasped an extrely important clue, and at this mont, he also recalled the warning Sun Wukong gave him, growing suspicious of Xu Puti Ancestor in his heart.
Donghuang Taiyi, Xu Puti!
These two were an extrely important lead, but now, with Ye Xuan under the scrutiny of all sides and facing the great catastrophe of the Ancient Demon Court, he simply could not afford to be divided.
“Ye Xuan, if there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave. Take care of yourself from now on.”
Minghe Ancestor clearly intended to leave, as he felt he had fallen into a terribly frightening sche and discovered too many uncertainties surrounding Ye Xuan. It was best to keep a distance from Ye Xuan—even obtaining the Hongng Purple Qi would have to be pursued by other ans.
