Ancient Ancestral Ruins - Chapter 70 Old Man Taiyi Arrives

Within the six known realms of the void.

There are only two forces in the Azure Realm that can be considered respectable.

One is the Azure Green Daoist Sect, and the other is the Purple Cloud Divine Mountain.

As for the Seven Killings Holy Sect and the Azure God Ancient Sect, they are only quite famous within the Azure Realm. Compared to the powerful sects and factions of the other five realms, they are not worth mentioning.

After entering the door.

A cultivator stepped forward to greet him. Being able to open a shop and do business here on behalf of Zixia Divine Mountain, he was naturally no ordinary cultivator. He was a True God-level cultivator!

Lu Jiu glanced at the other party and immediately recognized that this True God-level cultivator was most likely Taiyi Laodeng’s disciple, or at least a direct disciple.

“There are quite a few good things here.”

Lu Jiu strolled around casually, taking a look.

At first glance, I saw a small, palm-sized disc with mysterious runes and patterns engraved on it. In the center of the disc was a bead, like an eyeball, full of spirituality.

“An ancient array plate containing immortal array patterns, this thing is pretty good.”

For cultivators at the Human Immortal or Celestial Immortal level to praise something as “good” is already considered an astonishing and amazing find.

The shop owner, standing to the side, smiled and said, “Your taste is exceptional. However, this item is a display piece from our Zixia Divine Mountain. Unless you exchange it for a treasure of equal value, it is not for sale.”

“There seem to be a lot of things, but very few good ones. It seems that the essence of Zixia Sacred Mountain is nothing special.”

After casually glancing at a few other displayed treasures, Lu Jiu immediately shook his head and said with dissatisfaction.

These words were spoken.

The shop owner, who appeared to be a middle-aged man, visibly frowned.

However, this is, after all, the Star Gazing City. If it were someone from the Azure Realm, they certainly wouldn’t dare to be so disrespectful to the Purple Cloud Divine Mountain.

Therefore, the group of people in front of us must be from the other five realms.

“I wonder where my Purple Cloud Divine Mountain has offended you?”

After a moment’s hesitation, the shop owner spoke.

“You’ve got a pretty good eye to be able to see that.”

Lu Jiu strolled around casually with his hands behind his back, and said with a nonchalant smile, “However, if you want to know what your Zixia Divine Mountain has done to offend me, you’ll have to get Elder Taiyi to come forward.”

Taiyi Laodeng?

The shopkeeper’s face darkened. Such a disrespectful address clearly showed that he did not take Zixia Divine Mountain or Taiyi Divine Ancestor seriously!

“Hehe, young man, don’t be impulsive. I advise you to inform that little brother Taiyi and have him come over as fast as he can.”

Cang Qingzi smiled and patted the shop owner on the shoulder.

This startled the shop owner quite a bit.

After all, he was a true god-level powerhouse, yet someone patted him on the shoulder without him even noticing?

That’s not all.

When the old man patted his shoulder, a wisp of energy entered his body, as if it were a warning.

“Please wait a moment, everyone. I will inform the Ancestral Master, but I cannot guarantee that he will come.”

The shopkeeper took out a jade tablet specially made using secret techniques, and used his primordial spirit to condense divine information into it, thus transmitting the message.

Lu Jiu ignored this.

He casually wandered to a corner of the shop and saw a stick that had been carelessly placed in a nook or cranny.

Lu Jiu raised his hand and grabbed at the air.

The stick suddenly flew into the air and landed in his hand.

The stick was entirely bluish-black, and its shape was crooked and not beautiful at all. It also did not have any mysterious runes or patterns, nor did it exude any aura of law.

“So alike! It’s so incredibly alike!”

Lu Jiu’s gaze narrowed slightly. This stick looked very similar to something described in some fragmentary records he had seen in the Primordial Ruins!

“I’ll take this. Name your price.”

Lu Jiu spoke without turning his head.

The middle-aged shopkeeper also noticed the stick Lu Jiu was holding and asked curiously, “Does Your Excellency know what this is?”

“You’re funny. You run a shop, why do you have to ask the customers what you’re selling?” Xu Huanhuan pouted slightly.

The middle-aged shop owner was immediately embarrassed, because he didn’t know who these people were or what grudges they had with Zixia Divine Mountain. Even though he was being confronted, he couldn’t retaliate.

“If you want it, I’ll give it to you.”

Just then.

A voice suddenly rang out.

An old man walked into the shop. He was dressed plainly and looked like an ordinary farmer. He had dark skin and an unremarkable appearance.

“Master!”

Upon seeing the elderly man, the middle-aged shop owner immediately showed a hint of excitement and bowed respectfully.

“Oh my, look who’s here! The Great Ancestor Taiyi wants to give me something. I’m truly flattered.”

Lu Jiu’s words were filled with undisguised sarcasm and mockery.

However, Lu Jiu still casually put the stick into his storage ring.

Taiyi Divine Ancestor?

Both Li Hanlu and Xu Huanhuan looked surprised and shocked, after all, they had only heard of this legendary figure and had never seen him before.

…

The shops at Zixia Sacred Mountain are closed.

The legendary Taiyi God Ancestor looked at Lu Jiu’s young face, his expression filled with mixed emotions.

“I don’t remember your name or your face. It’s as if all of that has been erased from my memory. But as soon as I hear your voice and hear your tone, those memories come back to life.”

“I have seen countless people in my life, but you are the only one like me.”

Cang Qingzi, who was standing to the side, chuckled and said, “Taiyi, I advised you back then, but you insisted on going your own way. This is karma.”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged shop owner’s eyelids twitched violently.

What kind of existence is the Taiyi Divine Ancestor? How could anyone call him Taiyi Boy?

“Senior Cang Qingzi, did you already know something but didn’t tell me?”

After the Taiyi Divine Ancestor uttered these words.

The middle-aged shop owner suddenly felt completely numb!

Most people may not know who Cang Qingzi is.

But as a direct disciple of the Taiyi Divine Ancestor, he still knew that it was the oldest lineage in the Cangqing Realm, the founder of the Cangqing Dao Sect!

In the entire Azure Realm, there is no one with the highest seniority!

In a short time.

The middle-aged shop owner couldn’t help but want to look at Lu Jiu, but he didn’t dare to.

Because he remembered that the senior Cang Qingzi had addressed that person as “senior,” so what was the seniority of this seemingly young person?

now.

Facing the somewhat resentful look in the eyes of the Taiyi Divine Ancestor.

Cang Qingzi shook his head. “I didn’t know anything back then. I advised you not to do that thing simply because it’s my old-fashioned way of survival: never leave any hidden dangers for yourself.”

The conversation between the two would leave any onlooker completely bewildered and confused.

But Lu Jiu could understand it.

The matter Cang Qingzi was referring to was the act of toppling Lu Jiu’s statue, smearing and defaming his image, and then building his own statue within the Cang Qing Realm to unite the faith of all living beings.

This event likely occurred more than 8,000 years ago.

At that time, Lu Jiu had been missing for over a thousand years, and various sects, holy lands, and holy clans were all eager to make a move.

Through their exploration of the void, they unexpectedly learned that in other realms, some people had taken the path of faith in all living beings and gathered the fortune of heaven and earth, successfully embarking on the path to immortality, and their progress was astonishing!

The ancient supreme beings made immense contributions to the human race and were revered by all the humans in the Azure Realm!

If an ordinary person were to come forward to slander and defame him, obviously no one would believe it.

However, when the Taiyi Divine Ancestor speaks out, the credibility is absolutely different.

With the cooperation of other major religious sects, public opinion quickly became overwhelming, and in just a few hundred years, the past history was overturned. The former supreme human race was despised by the world and became a sinner who deserted the battlefield and almost caused the destruction of the human race!

“Young Taiyi, it is a great virtue to admit your mistakes and correct them. Do not remain stubbornly ignorant,” Cang Qingzi said.

“You old turtle, didn’t you say you weren’t familiar with this old man?”

Lu Jiu gave a cold laugh, “You two should stop putting on an act with me, pretending to be innocent.”

“Old Deng, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. I’m giving you one now. Tell me what to do.”

In a short time.

It wasn’t just the middle-aged shop owner.

Even Li Hanlu and Xu Huanhuan couldn’t help but become curious about Lu Jiu’s identity.

Because from beginning to end, they actually didn’t know what Lu Jiu’s true identity was.

However, both of them were very intelligent and had some vague guesses.
