Chapter 1716
Chapter 1716 Origin
What he didn’t know was that the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land was deeply moved at this moment.
He had never thought that even though Immortal Master Mingyu was a man of few words, he would stand firmly on the side of the Tongtian Holy Land at such a crucial moment.
Zhang Han remained silent, making the atmosphere on the field gradually tense up.
In particular, the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land knew very well that in fact, the success rate of the ancestral ceremony was only 30%. If they failed, they would have no chance to defeat Han Yang Immortal, but if they succeeded, the situation might not be favorable to them. After all, with the temperament of the people in the world of immortals, those people might regard them as nobodies.
One second, two seconds…
One minute passed.
Even the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land could hear his own heartbeat.
It had been a long time since he had been so nervous.
He was more willing to let Han Yang Immortal leave.
Finally, Zhang Han spoke.
He took a deep breath and said, “Tell them that I will give them an answer about the Pearl of Fate. After that, we will mind our own business. I am invincible in the Cultivation World, but I am not going to conquer the world. I have no intention to start a war, so I will give them a chance.”
Zhang Han was not afraid of them. He was worried about his calamity.
He didn’t know what would happen, and he didn’t know the details according to Sir’s tone. He just said that Zhang Han had been reborn and needed to face a calamity.
Not to mention whether the ancestral ceremony would affect him or not, Zhang Han’s duplications belonged to the higher world. Besides, Zhang Han felt that it was not safe to continue to fight against Grand Master Tongtian. Grand Master Tongtian’s strength had been greatly damaged, so it didn’t make much sense to kill him.
Zhang Han thought about it and chose to give the other party a chance.
Zhang Han said, “Ask them now. I’ll leave after that.”
“You are a sensible man, Han Yang Immortal. I admire you. Well…” Immortal Master Mingyu looked at the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land. “What do you want to ask?”
“In the entire Nine Mountains Region, the only thing we pay the most attention to is the Pearl of Fate. Han Yang Immortal, we desperately hope that you can hand it over,” said the First Elder.
“The Pearl of Fate has been broken. My daughter has absorbed it, so I can’t take it out,” Zhang Han said directly.
“It’s hard to explain that to the Dao Seeking Cultivators of the Nine Mountains Region,” the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land said softly.
Zhang Han frowned slightly and said coldly, “Do you want me to kill some people to explain myself?”
Hiss!
The First Elder gasped.
At this point, they couldn’t threaten Han Yang Immortal. A group of Holy Lands that they had sent out to cooperate with the Highest Clouds Palace had been killed.
In the entire Nine Mountains Region, no one was a match for Han Yang Immortal.
From a certain point of view, Zhang Han was already showing them enough respect by explaining a few words.
“This is terrifying. No one can defeat him. What explanation do we need? I’ll take it as a way out.”
The First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land cupped his hands.
“I see. I’ll report it to the Grand Master as soon as I get back.”
Zhang Han looked at them silently. He then turned around and left. He went into the Alternate Space of Tiny Tot, entered the void, and left.
“Why are we leaving?”
Immortal Master Lingxi said in surprise, “We’re now at the top of the First Mountain. We’ll reach the Tongtian Holy Land soon. At this time, the strength of Grand Master Tongtian has been greatly damaged. We should take him down in one go. As long as the Tongtian Holy Land is destroyed, the conflict will end.”
She felt that with Zhang Han’s character, Zhang Han should be able to defeat all of those enemies.
The others didn’t say anything.
They knew Zhang Han. The reason why he wanted to leave might be that he was afraid of the ancestral ceremony.
“This battle is almost over. We didn’t lose anything. Although Grand Master Tongtian is not dead, he doesn’t have much power now. It’s impossible for him to return to the Peak Stage.” Zhang Han shook his head and said, “Let’s go back to Earth and rest for a while.”
“That’s a good idea,” Zhang Mu said. “It’s been some time since we came out. Zhang Han has been fighting all the time. It’s inevitable that he will get tired. Let’s go back and recuperate.”
“Yes, the battle has been going on for too long, and we’ve seen enough of it,” Zhang Guangyou echoed.
“Let’s go back. After a while, when they figure it out, no one will dare to provoke us,” Dong Chen said.
They felt that Zhang Han was fighting alone, and all the responsibilities were on him. It would not be good for him to fight for a long time.
Moreover, they didn’t want to gamble on something full of accidents. If that group of people brought the ones from the world of immortals over, it would be really troublesome.
Zhang Han’s team left and set foot on the Space Node leading to the outer ring of the First Mountain, ready to return.
At this moment, Immortal Master Mingyu heaved a sigh of relief.
He and the others also returned to the Tongtian Holy Land.
On the way, the First Elder pondered for a long time and said, “Mingyu, how do you think I should persuade Grand Master about this? He is determined to hold the ancestral ceremony. I can feel it.”
“What?” Immortal Master Mingyu was shocked. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? If we invite the immortals over, it may not be good for us. Besides, even if those immortals are here, they may not attack Han Yang Immortal as we wish.”
“I’m also worried about that.” The First Elder sighed. “However, Grand Master’s strength has been damaged, and he can’t return to the Peak Stage. It’s an extravagant hope for him to go to the world of immortals. Also, many Holy Lands agree with this matter. They think that this may be an opportunity. Instead of letting Han Yang Immortal dominate the Cultivation World alone, it’s better to invite the ancestors over.”
“Isn’t… isn’t it good to stay alive?” Immortal Master Mingyu laughed bitterly.
“The ceremony requires the blood essence of the Human Clans to be activated through the Grand Master’s supreme treasures. If some of the people disagree, then the ceremony can’t be carried out. I’ll try to persuade Grand Master when we get back,” the First Elder said.
At this time, another Grand Master said, “What’s wrong with inviting the ancestors? The people who come here will all be immortals. Maybe we can find a way to the world of immortals. This time, Tongtian Holy Land has gathered all the Dao Seeking Cultivators from the Nine Mountains Region. The myriad clans are on the First Mountain. If we miss this opportunity, we may not be able to gather all the clans next time. Why don’t we give it a try?”
The First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land was silent for a moment. “It is indeed a way. Maybe opportunity and danger coexist. I just think that it is better to negotiate with Han Yang Immortal than to invite the ancestors.”
“How can we negotiate with that brutal Demon King? Even those cooperative forces have been beaten to death by him. How can he negotiate with us?” The Grand Master sneered.
“Didn’t Han Yang Immortal explain it to us just now?” Immortal Master Mingyu couldn’t help but refute, “The Pearl of Fate is gone. We just need to pretend that we don’t know about it. We’ll do everything as usual. There is no need to talk about the Pearl of Fate.”
“In my opinion, Mingyu, you’re too shortsighted.” The Grand Master by his side shook his head and said, “You dared to fight and go all out all those years ago, so why are you so cowardly now?”
“Alright.”
Immortal Master Mingyu couldn’t be bothered to say anything.
They flew all the way back to the Tongtian Holy Land. When they entered the passage to the secret realm and arrived on the continent, they saw a huge palace with tens of thousands of clans gathering. It was surrounded by light. The blood essence of each clan was constantly converging up like raindrops.
There was a golden ring in the air, which was constantly rotating and emitting supreme power. It overshadowed everything. It was as if the whole world could not accommodate the ring’s power, and muffled sounds were constantly coming from the surrounding space.
“Oh, my god!”
The Tongtian Holy Land’s First Elder narrowed his eyes, his voice quivering. “The, the ancestral ceremony has begun!”
“Start to invite the ancestors!”
“Hahahaha!”
Some Grand Masters who were with him laughed out loud.
Hiss!
Immortal Master Mingyu gasped. When he sensed the power above him, his scalp went numb.
“What should I do?”
“This is too terrifying. My, my heart can’t take it anymore. No, no, I’m going back to the Holy Land to hide. I’m done!”
Immortal Master Mingyu found an excuse to slip away.
The First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land was stunned.
Fortunately, Immortal Master Mingyu didn’t say that he had a stomachache or anything. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to leave the Holy Land.
Some noticed Immortal Master Mingyu, but under the watchful eyes of the First Elder of the Tongtian Holy Land, they let him go.
It didn’t matter that one person was leaving since the members of the myriad clans were there.
Just as Immortal Master Mingyu was about to leave, he turned to look behind him.
Grand Master Tongtian was levitating in the sky. He spread out his arms, surrounded by energy, and recited the ancient inscriptions in a low voice.
More than a thousand top-tier Grand Masters of the same level were levitating a kilometer below Grand Master Tongtian. They were gathering the blood essence of various clans and sending it to Elder Tongtian. Then, the blood essence, including the ring, would be controlled by Grand Master Tongtian.
The power became more and more intense. It was as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking.
Gradually, even the rules of the world were suppressed by the ring. Suddenly, there was a colorful light in the ring.
If Zhang Han and the others saw it, they would definitely know that the light swirling inside was similar to that on the Ancient Road of Starry Sky from the Boundless Sea to the Sea Dragon Star Area.
They gradually made their way.
Someone cried out in surprise, “The gate of the world of immortals is about to open!”
After he finished speaking, Immortal Master Mingyu left with a swish.
“This is incredible.
“The power is shocking. It’s unbelievable.”
Immortal Master Mingyu asked, “Which direction did Han Yang Immortal and the others go? Hurry up and catch up with them. Hurry up. Maybe it’s not too late.”
“Well…”
The little girl next to him was silent for two seconds. “It seems to be here.”
She opened the Star Map and pointed in a direction.
“Don’t guess. Is this their direction?”
“Yes, Grand Master. They’re heading in that direction.”
“This direction leads to the inner ring. Let’s chase after them.”
The great condor of Immortal Master Mingyu was fairly fast as well.
But he couldn’t catch up with Zhang Han’s team at all.
Smack!
The energy emitted by Immortal Master Mingyu turned into a long whip. It hit the great condor as if it were whipping a horse. It looked like a whip, but in fact, it was injecting energy into the great condor.
Through his and the great condor’s efforts, finally, ten days later, Immortal Master Mingyu sensed the trajectory of Tiny Tot.
“Wait, Han Yang Immortal, wait!”
Ming Yu used his supernatural power. The sound waves were so fast that they swept around Tiny Tot.
“Hmm?”
Tiny Tot appeared in the cosmos, and Zhang Han also flew out.
“Not good!”
Before Immortal Master Mingyu could say anything, the little girl beside him said, “Han Yang Immortal, things are not good. When we went back, the Tongtian Holy Land was already holding the ancestral ceremony. Judging from their particularly powerful momentum, it seems that they’re about to succeed.”
Zhang Han frowned slightly when he heard that.
The so-called ancestral ceremony was nothing more than to invite people from the higher world, and his six bodies were also from the higher world.
He did have the power to fight against the enemy, but what level the people from the higher world were at was very important.
“You’ve said what I wanted to say.”
Immortal Master Mingyu said grumpily, “Han Yang Immortal, bad news. The ancestral ceremony has begun.”
Helplessly, he repeated it again.
“Furthermore, I can feel…”
Immortal Master Mingyu added in a low voice, “The ancestral ceremony cannot be stopped once it starts. Even the rules of the Tongtian Holy Land will be suppressed.”
