Eternal Tale

”Don’’t worry, didn’’t they want to see me? I’’ll visit them personally; shouldn’’t they be eager for this?”

”Ancestor... you?”

”Far beyond Divine Transformation.”

”I’’ll go prepare immediately!!”

Qi Hao suddenly shouted with excitement, his voice full of energy, and even his somewhat declining vitality seemed to boil slightly. How dare the mere Demon Ancestor Hall act recklessly in front of the Ancestor?!

...

Half a day later, lightning streaked across the sky, exploding in all directions above the mountain range.

Boom! Boom!

Deep within the mountains, demonic energy surged, and one by one, great demons with human faces and demonic bodies appeared. Their appearances were bizarre, with sinister looks in their eyes, clearly not to be trifled with.

”Humans, how dare you!””Who are you?!”

”Does the Five Aggregates Sect think that just because you roam freely in the human world of immortals, you can run rampant in our Endless Mountain Range?”

”Hah, what a joke!”

...

Four cold voices echoed through the heavens, rushing towards two figures in the distance.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Endless Mountain Range trembled in all directions, with great demons gathering, their demonic energy soaring to the sky, all glaring angrily.

”Oh? It seems there might be some misunderstanding.”

In an instant, the heavens and earth shook as a giant hand that covered the sky descended from the heavens, dispersing the spiritual qi within a hundred-mile radius with its overwhelming Five Elements pressure, creating terrifying cracks in several mountain peaks and the earth.

Qi Hao was shocked, his scalp tingling, and his mind swayed continuously. The Ancestor’’s power was too formidable, leaving him without even the thought of resistance.

Boom!!!

A deafening explosion resounded, and silence fell. All the great demons on the ground had their eyes nearly bursting, as a boundless gale swept in all directions, blowing their fur wildly, leaving them standing motionless.

The whereabouts of the four demon ancestors remained unknown, their life and death uncertain...

”Oh, it’’s the Five Aggregates Ancestor in person!”

”Senior, you’’re too polite; we should have been the ones to visit you!”

”That was a good strike; we were blind not to recognize you, Senior!”

”Hmph, hurry and tidy up the surroundings, and invite the Senior into the hall!”

...

At this moment, the four demon ancestors emerged from a large pit as if nothing had happened, dusting off their bodies, with even a hint of reproach in their eyes as they began to blame each other.

This scene made many great demons understand immediately...

”Welcome, Five Aggregates Ancestor!”

”Welcome, Five Aggregates Ancestor!”

...

The surrounding area echoed with grand welcoming voices, bowing in salute, without the slightest awkwardness, each one more adept than the last.

This scene made Qi Hao twitch at the corner of his mouth. When it comes to changing faces, these great demons of the Endless Mountain Range are truly masters of adaptability.

A table and chair were placed directly on the ground, surrounded by towering ancient trees, lush and green, with rustling leaves, making the four demon ancestors click their tongues in wonder: ”The Five Aggregates Ancestor truly has refined taste, using the Crane Spirit Tree as material.”

Chen Xun descended gracefully and began pouring tea: ”Please have a seat, everyone.”

Qi Hao stood with arms crossed behind Chen Xun, glaring at the surroundings, using Xun’’s power to intimidate the demons!

The surrounding great demons kept their distance, not daring to breathe loudly. Whenever Qi Hao’’s gaze swept over them, they all lowered their heads.

The four demon ancestors approached, their bodies much larger than humans, though the demonic energy was somewhat unpleasant and easily recognizable.

They wore flattering smiles, as if the chair was custom-made for them, not too big or small. This one’’s strength was beyond doubt... a Divine Transformation expert!

”You are all cultivators; having cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage, why resort to fighting and killing? Life is so precious.”

Chen Xun raised his hand, a gentle smile on his face, ”Striving for dominance is for the younger generation; we, the older generation, should remain calm and peaceful.”

”Senior, you are right. We great demons of the Endless Mountain Range never instigate disputes. The path of cultivating immortality is so arduous; it’’s not easy for anyone.”

One of the demon ancestors carefully held a cup, took a sip of hot tea, and praised, ”Senior, excellent tea!”

The other three demons exchanged glances, quickly picked up their teacups, and took a sip, their praises unending.

Chen Xun chuckled, ”The Endless Mountain Range naturally belongs to the great demon clan. Those ancient matters have nothing to do with us; our Five Aggregates Sect has no intention of encroaching.”

Upon hearing this, the four demon ancestors nodded repeatedly, praising the senior’’s magnanimity!

Qi Hao gave the Ancestor a deep look, realizing that such a calm demeanor might be something he could never learn, yet it was profoundly impactful.

”My disciples all say that the great demons are reasonable and know when to advance and retreat. Seeing it today, it is indeed true.”

Chen Xun raised his teacup in a gesture, ”In the world of immortals, it’’s better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Our Five Aggregates Sect is very willing to befriend the great demon clan.”

”Oh, Senior, you flatter us!”

”Senior, we don’’t like hearing such words; it’’s our honor as great demons!”

”Senior, from now on, the matters of the Five Aggregates Sect are the matters of our great demon clan in the Endless Mountain Range!”

”That’’s right, descendants, did you hear?”

”Yes, Demon Ancestor!”

”Yes, Demon Ancestor!”

...

Responses came from all directions and the sky, filled with great enthusiasm, sweeping away the previous gloom.

Qi Hao secretly took a deep breath. He had thought the Ancestor would come to suppress these great demons, but he hadn’’t expected this outcome.

He had silently noted in his heart that there was still much to learn. At the Ancestor’’s level, fighting and killing might be the lowest form of resolution.

Chen Xun drank the tea in his cup with satisfaction, ”Thank you all for giving me this face.”

”Please accept these thousand-year spiritual herbs and body refining techniques. I brought them from a faraway place; they might not exist in this world of immortals.”

He took out a Storage Bag, the body refining techniques quite suitable for spiritual beasts, though he wasn’’t sure if they would work on great demons.

However, the power of these great demons’’ vitality was indeed abundant, reminiscent of the Bai Li clan.

The four demon ancestors blinked, seemingly doubting their hearing. The fact that this senior didn’’t use his power to suppress them was already shocking enough.

Now he was even gifting these treasures. They smiled flatteringly and began to explore the Storage Bag.

Gasp!

The four demon ancestors’’ expressions changed simultaneously. These spiritual herbs... especially the Chaoyuan Red Treasure Fruit, were great supplements for vitality!

One of the demon ancestors cupped his hands toward Chen Xun and began to examine the techniques, his expression changing wildly. These were definitely lost techniques in this world of immortals!

Unknowingly, Qi Hao raised his head a bit higher. Having an Ancestor who wouldn’’t exploit his own people, to be honest, was the real reason he stayed in the Five Aggregates Sect.

Throughout history, whether in the Kingdom Qian, Kingdom Wu, or the world of immortals in the eastern countries, most ancestors climbed up by draining the sect’’s resources.

But their Five Aggregates Sect’’s Ancestor didn’’t even have enemies, focusing solely on teaching disciples and elevating the sect to the pinnacle of the world of immortals in Kingdom Qian.

For them to cultivate to this point, which disciple of the Five Aggregates Sect didn’’t know of the Ancestor’’s achievements? This was why the sect had an unimaginable level of unity, surpassing all other cultivators in the world of immortals.

”Thank you, Senior.”

The four demon ancestors stood up simultaneously, shedding their sycophantic demeanor and becoming solemn.

They were also immensely relieved, thankful they hadn’’t acted rashly, only sending some great demons to probe the outskirts of the mountains.

Had they caused harm to the Five Aggregates Sect disciples, perhaps even the legendary Ancestor Bull might have come to retaliate!

However, they couldn’’t help but admire this human expert’’s magnanimity, truly different from those wild cultivators who frequently came to explore the mountain’’s secrets.

Chen Xun’’s eyes were filled with satisfaction, ”No need for formalities, drink your tea.”

They all cupped their hands, sat upright, and drank the tea in one gulp, genuinely beginning to acknowledge the Five Aggregates Sect.
