TL: Etude
Ye Tian, General Bloodfiend, General Skyreaver, and General Windstar—all four Generals gathered here. Nurous other Generals and many Peak Lords arrived one by one.
The many True Ancestors seated themselves within the main hall, awaiting the arrival of Wind King’s consciousness avatar. Indeed, Wind King’s incarnation was set to descend, solely for this eting.
Suddenly, Wind King’s consciousness incarnation appeared, taking the highest throne and gazing down upon the assembled True Ancestors.
“Greetings, Wind King!” the True Ancestors shouted in unison.
Wind King nodded slightly and then said, “You all should know why we’ve gathered here this ti. Yes, it’s because of the Forbidden Ancient Well!”
Many of the True Ancestors, including Ye Tian, did not know the significance of the Forbidden Ancient Well. They only knew that the Heavenly Spirit Sect and the Demon Taro True Nation had been annihilated due to this well, and even the Dao Ancestors of Heavenly Spirit Sect had fallen.
“The Forbidden Ancient Well,” Wind King explained, “is a unique treasure from the Dark Forbidden Domain, containing an inner world that produces forbidden treasures. Furthermore, it can be transford into sothing akin to the Nine Nether Forbidden Pool, and for any power, the Forbidden Ancient Well’s value is imnse—far greater than that of the Nine Nether Forbidden Pool. In fact, the Nine Nether Sect built its forbidden pool as an imitation of the Dark Forbidden Domain’s Forbidden Ancient Well!”
With this, many True Ancestors began to understand.
“But, Wind King,” a Peak Lord questioned, “even if a Forbidden Ancient Well is ten or even a hundred tis more precious than the Nine Nether Forbidden Pool, is it really worth destroying an entire sect like Heavenly Spirit Sect and killing all those Dao Ancestors? The force behind this action must have also paid a steep price. Isn’t the cost a bit too high?”
“Correct, the value of a single Forbidden Ancient Well is indeed limited,” Wind King replied. “But it signals sothing much larger. The Profound Void Ancient Realm is unusual—or rather, the Domain Realm Fragnt that rged with the Dao Mountain Domain is not ordinary! The existence of a Forbidden Ancient Well should be impossible within any Domain Realm, as only the Dark Forbidden Domain can produce them.”
The faces of the assembled True Ancestors turned solemn.
“Why,” soone finally asked, “is the Profound Void Ancient Realm capable of producing a Forbidden Ancient Well?”
“Wind King, what does this an?” General Bloodfiend asked curiously.
“If I’m not mistaken,” Wind King replied, “the Profound Void Ancient Realm may possess the potential to beco a Forbidden Realm!”
“What is a Forbidden Realm?” the True Ancestors asked, confused.
“A Forbidden Realm,” Wind King explained, “has always been a legend, one understood more deeply only by Domain Ancestors. All I know is that a Forbidden Realm contains stable Dark Forbidden Power, similar to the Dark Forbidden Domain, capable of producing forbidden treasures and even birthing forbidden lifeforms! It is a supre and mysterious realm, surpassing the Domain Realm itself.”
“Legend has it that so Domain Ancestors have seen fragnts of the Forbidden Realm while traversing the Dark Forbidden Domain,” he continued. “Of course, this is just hearsay, and I can’t verify its truth. But now, with a Forbidden Ancient Well appearing in the Profound Void Ancient Realm, it suggests the possibility of that realm becoming a Forbidden Realm! Perhaps in the near future, more forbidden treasures will be born there—even ones far more precious than the Forbidden Ancient Well itself.
However, if a forbidden lifeform were to be born, it would spell disaster! Forbidden lifeforms rival Domain Ancestors, and once born, no one can stop them! Yet, the birth of a Forbidden Realm would also be an unparalleled opportunity.”
“Why does the Profound Void Ancient Realm have the potential to beco a Forbidden Realm?” Ye Tian asked, still puzzled. “Wasn’t it created from a Domain Realm fragnt rged with the universe?”
Wind King speculated, “I suspect this may have sothing to do with the universe itself or perhaps with the battle that shattered the Domain Realm.”
In the past, the reason why the Vast Sea Domain was attacked might have been due to a Supre Treasure from the Dark Forbidden Domain.
It was said that the Domain Ancestor of the Vast Sea Domain fused that Supre Treasure into the remaining one-third of the Domain Realm and forcibly cast it into the Dark Forbidden Domain. Precisely because of that treasure’s existence, the Profound Void Ancient Realm now held the potential to beco a Forbidden Realm.
To uncover the true origins, one would likely need to consult those Half-Step Domain Ancestors in the Heavenly Emperor Palace, as they might know part of the truth.
Wind King continued, “The agenda for this eting is straightforward. Besides informing you about the Forbidden Ancient Well and the Forbidden Realm, our goal is to seize the Forbidden Ancient Well with all our strength. Even if you cannot control the Forbidden Ancient Well itself, you must try to secure as many treasures from within as possible! The Heavenly Spirit Sect was destroyed likely because they acquired an invaluable forbidden treasure from it, which attracted the wrath of a powerful Upper Three Heavens force. It could be one of those three Ninth Heaven forces—or perhaps even the Heavenly Emperor Palace!”
“Understood!” responded the True Ancestors.
They, too, coveted forbidden treasures. Securing even one such treasure would be a monuntal gain.
Ye Tian was also greatly tempted. His only forbidden treasure currently was the Forbidden Black Lotus, a rather valuable forbidden artifact. However, the Dark Forbidden Power within the Black Lotus had been continuously absorbed and refined by him, leaving less than 40% of its original Dark Forbidden Power.
By Ye Tian’s estimation, the Forbidden Black Lotus could at most support his cultivation of the Forbidden Body to the minor accomplishnt realm before it ceased being useful for further advancent.
Without a treasure like the Forbidden Black Lotus, if he wished to progress further in his Forbidden Body cultivation, he would have to venture into the Dark Forbidden Domain—a rather unrealistic prospect.
He couldn’t possibly abandon everything he had in the Profound Void Ancient Realm to stay in the Dark Forbidden Domain just for cultivation. The Profound Void Ancient Realm was filled with countless opportunities;
staying in the Dark Forbidden Domain would only delay his progress. Thus, this Forbidden Ancient Well represented a huge opportunity for him. As long as he obtained a substantial amount of forbidden treasures, he would no longer worry about resources for cultivating his Forbidden Body.
Moreover, Blackwind Mountain did not strictly require its True Ancestors to hand over forbidden items. If they did hand in such items, they could exchange them for points or other opportunities.
In short, all treasures gained from the Forbidden Ancient Well belonged to those who acquired them.
The True Ancestors of Blackwind Mountain began their preparations, ready to head to the Forbidden Ancient Well at any mont.
anwhile, the Upper Three Heavens forces, Middle Three Heavens forces, and even alliance forces like the Great Divine Hall, also started gathering their True Ancestor armies.
It was evident that once so many forces converged upon the Forbidden Ancient Well, a terrifying battle would erupt.
In such a chaotic war among countless True Ancestors, even Invincible True Ancestors faced the risk of death.
Ye Tian decided not to let Xiao Yue go to the Forbidden Ancient Well, seeing no need for it. Instead, he had her guard the human race and look after their children, ensuring they didn’t wander off.
Months passed.
One day, the blockade on the Demon Taro True Nation ruins was lifted, and the major powers no longer barred others from entering the site.
The Demon Taro True Nation was in complete ruins, with void fissures everywhere, chaotic rules, and traces left from battles between Dao Ancestors.
Nurous True Ancestors arrived and were astonished by the scene.
What kind of intense battle had reduced an entire True Nation to ruins? And just what treasures had been discovered within the Forbidden Ancient Well?
Heavenly Sea Sect, Limitless Sky Sect, the Myriad Domains Divine Hall, Blackwind Mountain, Heavenly Sword Sect, Vajra City countless forces flooded in, each bringing a large number of True Ancestors. From the endless void above, one could see the dense mass of True Ancestor figures.
These forces did not imdiately clash;
instead, they warily observed each other, approaching the Forbidden Ancient Well with caution.
Soon, they reached the continent where the Forbidden Ancient Well resided, now a desolate ruin, reduced to a forbidden land.
This forbidden land was filled with Dark Forbidden Power that had seeped from the Forbidden Ancient Well. For True Monarchs and weaker beings, it was a place of certain death. But for True Ancestors, this power posed no threat.
After all, the Dark Forbidden Power here was relatively mild, far less violent than that found in the Dark Forbidden Domain.
“Let’s go in!”
True Ancestors from Heavenly Sea Sect, Limitless Sky Sect, and the Myriad Domains Divine Hall entered the Forbidden Ancient Well first, followed closely by other forces. A mont’s hesitation would an the treasures would fall into others’ hands.
In no ti, the True Ancestors from various factions had all entered the Forbidden Ancient Well, and Ye Tian joined Blackwind Mountain’s forces as they ventured inside as well.
