Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2881: Chapter 40: Tian Yuan Ruins! Jinggu 39_3

”This is against the rules.” The voice of the Heritage Artifact Spirit was cold and indifferent, as if devoid of any emotion.

”I don’t care about your rules or not!” The Eldest Princess of Jade River snorted coldly, her voice resolute, exuding unparalleled dominance. ”We have four Sacred Supremes here this time. If you are unwilling to let us in, it means this relic is a trap. In that case, we will join forces to dismantle the relic and see who is playing tricks inside.”

Simultaneously, the aura of the four Sacred Supremes was released, their imposing power spreading overwhelmingly, enveloping the entire relic.

This is why, despite the suspicion that this relic might be strange, everyone still dared to explore it.

With the combined force of the four Sacred Supremes, plus Yun Tiange wielding the power of a Half Sacred Supreme, even if facing a Taoist Master level relic, they had nothing to fear.

As for whether there might be enemies with Taoist Master level power within, that was naturally impossible.

If the suspicious presence inside truly had such great abilities, why would this relic nest here for a million years?

Seeing the Eldest Princess of Jade River’s determined attitude, the voice of the Heritage Artifact Spirit within the relic faltered, seemingly cowed, and immediately changed its tone: ”I am the Saint Rank Heritage Artifact Spirit under the Tian Yuan Sect, established when the Human race faced a life-or-death crisis to prevent trouble before it happens. The purpose of this relic is to select and cultivate successors who can restore the Dao Palace. As a precursor relic to the Taoist Master level, it’s normal for the requirements to be stringent. Since you are uneasy, come in together to witness the testing process.”

Tian Yuan Sect’s relic?

And it’s to cultivate successors to revitalize the Dao Palace?

Everyone’s eyes instantly burned with fervor.

During the Immortal Alliance Era, although Tian Yuan Sect could not compare to those super giant sects with vast territories, it was still a powerful sect with a Taoist Master.

This relic is actually related to the Taoist Master inheritance?

Just as everyone was excited, suddenly, a figure shot out from a boat, abruptly appearing in front of the relic.

Against the backdrop of the deep, dark void, her luxurious palace dress was particularly colorful. Her garments fluttered, majestic and imposing, exuding a regal aura.

Above her head, a vast aura of the Sacred Image floated. Around her, a Tian Yuan Sacred Sword circled, radiating a formidable presence.

Needless to say, this figure was Immortal Emperor Muyun, Yun Tiange.

With a thought, her aura surged dramatically, spreading towards the relic, while she loudly said, ”Since this is Tian Yuan Sect’s Heritage Relic, can you recognize my aura?”

Meanwhile, at the core of the relic, a faint elder’s phantom quietly hovered within a special transparent device.

He seemed ignorant, his eyes closed and unmoving, his aura incredibly weak, as if it could dissipate at any moment.

However, the moment Yun Tiange’s aura spread into the relic, the weak elder’s phantom abruptly opened his eyes, a drastic change in his expression: ”This...this is the Tian Yuan Sacred Image and Sacred Sword, this is Tianlan’s aura!”

He paused, then shook his head somewhat bewilderedly: ”No, no, Tianlan died a million years ago! Could it be that this woman inherited my disciple Xuanyuan Tianlan’s legacy? But how can her aura be so similar to Tianlan?”

Just as the elder’s phantom was puzzled and confused, a cold, emotionless male voice spoke: ”Tian Yuan, according to the information I researched from the database, your disciple Xuanyuan Tianlan was chosen as one of the test subjects for the Bloodline Bonding Technique. Judging from the aura of that woman outside, the Bloodline Bonding Technique team seems to have achieved initial success.”

”What?!” Upon hearing this, the elder phantom called ”Tian Yuan” shuddered violently, his voice filled with anger and disbelief. ”Crystal Thirty-Nine, you have been deceiving me all along! You checked the database and told me she was already dead!”

”Indeed, she has long since died.” Crystal Thirty-Nine’s voice was utterly devoid of emotion. ”But her body was used as a test subject. Tian Yuan, don’t get too agitated; it will affect the upcoming experiment plans.”

”Madmen!! All of you Crystal Ancient Tribe are madmen!” Tian Yuan the elder was exceedingly furious. His voice, sharpened and intensified from emotional upheaval, was filled with boiling anger.

”Tian Yuan, insults and anger hold no meaning.” Crystal Thirty-Nine said, ”Now that things have reached this point, it’s better to do something meaningful.”

”I refuse, I refuse to cooperate with you further.” Tian Yuan the elder seemed in very poor spirits.

Crystal Thirty-Nine was silent for a while, then continued: ”Your Immortal Clan is an excellent and highly potential race, with a chance to succeed, it’s just too emotional.”

”You Crystal Ancient Tribe are indeed unemotional.” Tian Yuan the elder snorted coldly, tone disdainful. ”You discarded emotions and the flesh, becoming purely utilitarian, employing any means necessary to achieve your aims. In the end, didn’t you fail as well? The facts prove you were wrong.”

”Yes, we took the wrong path. However, I now only want to fulfill my research mission, witnessing the success of my technology.” Crystal Thirty-Nine said coldly, ”If you wish to breach the agreement, I will activate the self-destruct device and see if that woman who inherited your disciple’s bloodline can survive under a small Genesis Crystal.”

”You!!”

Tian Yuan the elder’s phantom trembled all over with rage, yet he gradually suppressed his anger.

He knew the Crystal Ancient Tribe were emotionless monsters, who would stop at nothing to achieve their goals. Since Crystal Thirty-Nine dared to say such things, it truly could do it.

”Fine!” Tian Yuan the elder finally said in a deep voice, ”I agree to cooperate with your plan, but you must also not breach your promise.”

”We of the Crystal Ancient Tribe never breach our promises.” Crystal Thirty-Nine said calmly, ”Then let’s begin. We hope to find suitable candidates in this round of testing; we have been waiting far too long!”
