Chapter 191: Ancestral Worship Ceremony!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio | Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Buried Dragon Ridge, the ancestral land of the Panlong family.

...

Although it was only one word different from Broken Dragon Ridge, the two were two completely different places. The Broken Dragon Ridge was a dangerous place that contained great terror, while the Buried Dragon Ridge was a blessed land filled with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Legend had it that a long time ago, a true dragon was buried in the Buried Dragon Ridge, hence its name. There were also rumors that the Buried Dragon Ridge itself was transformed from a true dragon. It contained great opportunities and great fortunes.

However, a legend was still a legend. No matter how amazing the legends were, no one had found any opportunities or fortunes in the Buried Dragon Ridge for countless years.

As time passed, it evolved into a beautiful legend that simply did not exist.

Roughly six thousand years ago, the first ancestor of the Panlong family had taken a fancy to the excellent ley lines of the Buried Dragon Ridge, so he occupied it with powerful martial strength. Later, it became the mausoleum of the Panlong family’s ancestors.

At this moment, all the members of the Panlong family gathered on the peak of the Buried Dragon Ridge.

Everyone had a solemn expression on their faces.

After thousands of years of development and construction by the Panlong family, the current Buried Dragon Ridge was quite large. Looking up, there was a majestic ancestral shrine standing in the middle of the square.

In the shrine were the memorial tablets of the Panlong family’s ancestors, and behind the shrine were the ancestral graves.

“Patriarch Xuanming, the auspicious time has arrived.”

Zhao Tianxiong came to the black-robed patriarch and reported respectfully.

This person was called Zhao Xuanming.

He was the most powerful patriarch of the Panlong family. His cultivation had already reached the peak of the Heaven Capture realm. Moreover, he had extraordinary encounters in his life. It was said that he had an ancient spiritual weapon.

His strength was comparable to a cultivator at the perfection stage of the Heaven Capture realm.

Everyone in the Panlong family was filled with reverence toward him. Even Zhao Hanshan was a junior in front of him.

“Are all the members of the Panlong family here?” Zhao Xuanming asked calmly.

“Reporting to the patriarch, all the members of the Panlong family who are recorded in the clan register have arrived. Not a single one is missing.”

“Alright. Since that’s the case, let’s start the ancestral worship ceremony.”

“Yes.”

Zhao Tianxiong bowed.

Soon after, he came to the front of the ancestral shrine and swept his solemn gaze across the many clansmen present.

“The auspicious time has arrived. Let the ancestral worship begin!”

Thump!

As soon as he finished speaking, a solemn and majestic bell sounded in the Buried Dragon Ridge and spread across the void, reverberating in the Panlong Ancient City.

Then, a highly respected elder walked out of the crowd with a memorial in his hand and came to the front.

“Thanks to the blessings of our ancestors, the Panlong family has been established for more than 5,800 years. The family is harmonious and prosperous, and there are many children. There have been no disasters or tribulations. Today, we are gathered at the Burial Dragon Ridge to offer our sincere sacrifices.”

“The Panlong family currently has a total of 2,884 members. Among them, 15 are above the Heaven Capture realm, and those above the Heavenly Cycle realm total up to …”

The elder’s loud voice echoed across the Buried Dragon Ridge.

This was the tradition of the Panlong family.

The so-called ancestral worship was, first, to worship the ancestors. On the other hand, it was also to announce the situation of the Panlong family to all the clansmen, including the family business, the strength of the family members, the geniuses in the family, and so on.

In short, it was more like a summary.

The elder spoke solemnly, and the clansmen below listened tentatively.

The ancestral worship ceremony was one of the few opportunities for them to understand the family situation in detail.

However, this did not include Zhao Zichen.

At this moment, he was kneeling outside the ancestral shrine with feigned piety. On the surface, he was listening to the elder’s statement seriously, but in fact, his mind had already flown to the ancestral grave behind the ancestral shrine.

“Looking at the time, Qin Daofu should have arrived by now.”

The corners of his mouth curled into a smile. His eyes were filled with anticipation.

Outside the ancestral shrine, Qin Daofu and the Mad Daoist had already arrived.

“Oh right, why isn’t Brother Ren here yet?”

“Oh, he’s probably not coming today.”

“Why?”

“I sent him a message before, but he replied that he’s going into seclusion to focus on breaking through, so he won’t be participating in the ancestral worship ceremony and digging the ancestral graves. He just asked the two of us to do as we see fit,” The Mad Daoist said without turning his head.

Huh? Breaking through at this time?

Qin Daofu was very surprised.

However, he did not think too much about it.

“Since Brother Ren can’t come, then leave this matter to us. We definitely can’t let go of the ancestral grave of the Panlong family. At that time, after we dig the ancestral land, I’ll first expiate the sins of the Panlong family’s ancestors and then send them to Brother Ren for him to collect their corpses. This way, it won’t be wasted at all. It’s simply perfect,” Qin Daofu chuckled.

Hearing this, the Mad Daoist also revealed a strange smile.

“Alright, it’s about time. Next, it is your turn to perform.”

“Okay.”

Qin Daofu was not hesitant when it came to serious matters.

Boom!

Outside the ancestral shrine, the elder was describing the glory of the Panlong family and its great achievements.

The clansmen present were all immersed in the speech.

However, at this moment, a ferocious figure that looked like a savage tyrannosaurus suddenly descended from the sky. He carried an ancient golden battle spear and appeared under the ancestral shrine.

“Ah!”

The battle spear in his hand swept out gently, and the elder was sent flying. He lay on the ground a thousand feet away, his survival unknown.

Qin Daofu?

Seeing this sudden change, everyone present was instantly shocked.

At the same time, Zhao Xuanming and the other patriarchs revealed ferocious expressions.

“Bastard, return my Panlong family’s treasures!” Someone shouted. With that, a fierce-tempered patriarch holding a huge ancient sword in his hand and slashing at Qin Daofu with incomparable ferocity.

A powerful sword light swept across the void.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuanming and the others, who had long been waiting, also instantly unleashed his power.

“Attack together and kill Qin Daofu!” Zhao Xuanming let out a heaven-shaking roar.

Boom!

The moment he spoke, he waved his hand, and eight ferocious ancient swords instantly appeared in the air. They interweaved and formed a powerful sword array.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The moment the sword array was activated, streaks of peerlessly ferocious sword energy wrapped around Qin Daofu with monstrous power.

The might and power that erupted from it were comparable to that of a Mystic Heaven realm cultivator.

“Geng Gold Sword Array?”

A hint of surprise flashed across Qin Daofu’s eyes as he looked at the overwhelming sword energy and the monstrous sharpness it released.

He did not expect Zhao Xuanming to have such a great killing weapon in his hands. With the Geng Gold Sword Array, it was enough for the other party to kill all creatures in the Heaven Capture realm.

Unfortunately, he met him.

Thump!

Qin Daofu was not afraid of the incoming golden sword energy. He lightly shook the golden battle spear in his hand, and in an instant, a mighty power surged out and destroyed the sword energy.

“Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon?”

Zhao Xuanming’s pupils constricted. Obviously, he was also shocked.

However, to maintain the prestige of the Panlong family, he would not hesitate even if he had to die.

Immediately, he and the remaining twelve Heaven Capture realm patriarchs of the Panlong family launched all kinds of attacks crazily.

In essence, they could not let Qin Daofu dig the ancestral graves! Similarly, Qin Daofu had no intention of digging the Panlong family’s ancestral grave either. His goal was only to resist Zhao Xuanming and the other powerful patriarchs and buy time for Zhao Zichen.

Moreover, he knew the inside information that the mysterious Dongfang Bubai was waiting in the dark.

Therefore, he didn’t want to get into trouble at this time.

After today, there was plenty of time and opportunity.

In fact, everything was just as Qin Daofu had expected. When the Panlong family’s ancestral worship ceremony began, Lin Wudao had already come to the Buried Dragon Ridge in the disguise of Dongfang Bubai. At this moment, he was also waiting for Zhao Zichen to make his move.

As expected, seeing that Qin Daofu was already fighting with Zhao Xuanming and the others, Zhao Zichen took advantage of the chaos to find an excuse to leave the Buried Dragon Ridge.

A moment later, when he returned, he was already wearing a black cloak and a ghost mask.

Whoosh!

Taking advantage of the chaos on the Buried Dragon Ridge, Zhao Zichen did not hesitate. He carried a hoe and went straight to the ancestral graves behind the ancestral shrine.

When he arrived at his destination, he chose the tallest and largest ancestral grave in the ancestral land.

This was the tomb of the first ancestor of the Panlong family.

Boom!

Glancing coldly at the grave, Zhao Zichen raised his hand and smashed the grave with his hoe.

Immediately after, he used all his strength to dig crazily.

“As expected of a filial son!” In the darkness, Lin Wudao sighed.

Boom!

Just as Zhao Zichen was digging with all his might, a terrifying spear light suddenly tore through the void. The powerful force pierced through the ancestral shrine.

Coincidentally, Qin Daofu’s power had shattered the ancestral shrine. In an instant, Zhao Zichen’s figure was reflected in everyone’s eyes..
