Chapter 688: The Mystery of the Killing of the Ancient Saint
achievements of the Holy Body, and attributed all glory to the Tyrant of the Heavens." Ning De clenched his fists tightly, a surge of anger brewing within him.The glory of the ancient sacred body and..."It seems that Senior knows the purpose of my visit." Jun Xiaoyao raised his teacup and took a sip.
"That goes without saying. The Son of God possesses the ancient sacred body, and the Heaven-Defying Hegemonic Body are destined enemies. How could he possibly not come here," said Tuoba Zhan.
"Senior, could you perhaps tell me why Baxiang and Huangxing are in this state now" Jun Xiaoyao inquired.
He has always wondered why the barren star would become what it is now.
"Actually, I don't know much either. It's just hearsay that there once was a powerful ancient sacred body who was killed here by the Heavenly Tyrant Body, staining the starry sky with blood," Tuo Ba Zhan said.
"Such a thing actually exists" Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with surprise.
It seems that in past battles between the Sacred Body and the Overbearing Body, the Sacred Body has not had the upper hand.
Even then, they were at a disadvantage.
That ancient primordial saintly body, its achievements reaching the realm of creation. It is said that it once broke through its limits, though it didn't completely sever all ten shackles, it still shattered seven, making it incredibly powerful.
"Logically speaking, even if he couldn't defeat Ba Tǐ, he shouldn't have been killed. But this has become a mystery now, with no one knowing the reason." Tuoba Zhan said.
Jun Xiaoyao pondered thoughtfully.
Ten shackles fell from the heavens, restraining the ancient sacred body.
The transubstantiation is common knowledge.
The fact that Jun Xiaoyao broke through ten shackles remained unknown to the public.
To this day, some people still mistakenly believe that Jun Xiaoyao may have only broken a few shackles.
However, strictly speaking, Jun Xiaoyao was able to break through the ten shackles because of the sign-in system.
And that ancient archaic holy body relied on itself to break through seven shackles, which could be considered extremely powerful.
But such a powerful being was slain by the tyrannical powers of that era.
Could there be something fishy going on here
"Have you heard of the Ancient Sacred Hall, senior" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
Tuoba Zhendao: "That is a ancestral land of the ancient sacred body, right on the barren star."
Jun Xiaoyao rose, slightly bowed his hands and said: "Thank you senior for the feast. Jun has something important to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer."
Jun Xiaoyao spoke, lifting the Taiyin Jade Rabbit in one hand. The rabbit was still engrossed in gnawing on its spirit fruit carrot.
"Well, then, go on, Shenzi. If anything happens, I'll take care of it." Tuoba Zhan said with a smile.
He has already considered himself half a member of the Jun family.
If I can get closer to Jun Xiaoyao this time, it's not impossible to truly join the Jun family.
"Thank you." Jun Xiaoyao nodded and left.
He left the ancient city, traversing the starry expanse, his gaze fixed on that desolate star.
"There must be some secret hidden within this," Jun Xiaoyao's eyes were deep.
……
The desolate planet, as its name suggests, is utterly barren and lifeless.
Long ago, this ancient star of life was not like this, but now it is a barren wasteland.
The mountains were bare and devoid of any greenery.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was thin, and the earth appeared barren in a dull grayish-brown hue.
The entire planet, ancient and decrepit, held little life. Even the monsters were scarce, unwilling to exist here.
On the barren continent, there are scattered some ancient and dilapidated cities.
Most of them are ordinary people, with a few cultivators. There aren't even any who have reached the quasi-sage level, so they are quite ordinary.
On the ultimate ancient road, such a weak ancient star is rarely seen.
Jun Xiaoyao walked freely in the sky, his divine sense sweeping across vast areas.
"This place is too desolate. The spiritual energy is thin, the laws of the Great Dao are fragmented and incomplete, making it impossible to cultivate." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head secretly.
And at that moment, his spiritual awareness suddenly picked up on something, a glimmer flashing in his eyes.
"Huh, that aura..."
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze, locked onto an ancient city in the distance, his figure flashed and vanished.
At this moment, beside a street in an ancient city.
A little girl, about seven or eight years old, walked out of a shop.
She had jet-black hair styled in two braids, her small face was delicately sculpted, with bright and clear eyes that sparkled with life. Her eyelashes were long and curved.
She was a lovely little girl, as delicate as a porcelain doll, but she wore a patched gray dress and went barefoot, her feet a bit dirty.
From her attire, one can tell that the young girl's living conditions are not good.
But a satisfied smile was on her little face, and in her small hand she carried a spirit feather chicken.
"Grandpa isn't feeling well, so I'll stew some chicken soup for him and send some to my uncle. I'll also save a drumstick for my brother."
The little girl mumbled to herself, beginning to distribute the spiritual feather chicken but did not leave a portion for herself.
At that moment, several children in fine clothes appeared ahead, their eyes gleaming.
A big kid at the front looked at the little girl and sneered: "Well, well, you can actually afford to eat Spirit Feather Chicken. Looks like things are going pretty well for you lately."
"...wicked... wicked person..."
Seeing this group of children, a glimmer of fear flashed in the little girl's eyes.
She turned and was about to run.
"Want to run again!"
This group of children rushed forward, the leader grabbing the Lingyu chicken with one hand.
"This is for Grandpa!"
The little girl suddenly shouted and pushed with one hand, actually knocking the leader of the children over.
"No, hit me!"
The eldest child was furious, pushed by someone they saw as a disgrace, which left him humiliated.
A group of children surrounded and bullied a little girl.
At this time, on another street, a boy of about ten years old carrying rice and noodles saw this scene, his eyes bulging with rage, and rushed forward.
"Little Xuanxuan!"
This child, like a little tiger, leaped over in a few strides and punched out, knocking one child flying with a broken tooth.
"Xiao Xuanxuan, are you alright"
The boy looked at his sister.
Little girl named Xiaoxuan bit her lip, looking at the shredded and trampled Lingyu chicken on the ground. A few teardrops glistened in her eyes.
"Brother Chen, the spiritual feather chicken is gone...Little Xuannuan still wants to make tonic for grandpa and Uncle..." Little Xuannuan couldn't help but sob.
"Damn you, you bastards!"
The little boy named Ningchen, clenching his fists, like an angry little tiger, charged at the group of children.
"You are nothing but a fallen, disgraced clan!" the leading child shouted as well.
He moved with a flash of his foot, and there was a burst of spiritual energy.
Even this little boy, Ning Chen, wasn't afraid at all. He raised his tiny fist and punched right back.
In his sharply contrasting eyes, a faint glimmer of gold flashed.
He fought with a group of children all by himself.
Although Ningchen was brave and strong, he was outnumbered. The group opposing him included several children who knew some cultivation techniques.
In a moment, Ning Chen was pinned down and beaten, his lips split open, blood flowing with a faint golden shimmer.
A crowd of people gathered around.
Some bystanders couldn't help but say, "Whose child is this Why don't they look after them It's not right to bully people like this!"
"Hush, quiet now. They're the Cang family's children, and that brother and sister pair...they hail from the Great Wilderness Village," some in the know whispered amongst themselves.
"What... the Big Wilderness Village, is it related to that forbidden place" Those who were unaware shivered, associating what they thought with something dangerous, and didn't dare to intervene.
"So, just mind your own business. The Cangs' domineering nature is well-known."
Thus, while some people around watched, they dared not step forward to stop it.
"Brother..." Xiaoxuan was crying, she gritted her teeth and wanted to rush up too.
"Don't come any closer!" Ning Chen shouted.
"You little slut, get down on your knees!" The child at the head roared, launching a palm strike to suppress Ning Chen.
Ning Chen's eyes were bloodshot, his inner bloodlust ignited, and he suddenly felt his whole body was burning with heat.
He punched the bigger child in the face with all his might, caving in half of his face.
"Ouch!" The big kid covered his face, sobbing loudly.
In the distance, several extraordinary-looking men and women appeared. Upon seeing this, a middle-aged beautiful woman among them changed her expression.
That is her own child.
Damn, you little bastard!
A middle-aged woman with a venomous expression appeared, her finger pointing accusingly. She possessed the cultivation of a Divine Realm expert.
A beam of light pierced towards Ningchen.
"Brother!" Xiaoxuan's face turned pale, and she let out a hoarse cry.
Ning Chen also gritted his teeth, trying hard not to be afraid.
My great uncle told me that our lineage is unparalleled throughout history, we cannot kneel, and would rather die than surrender!
The little guy clenched his fists tightly.
Many people around, averted their eyes, unwilling to witness this scene.
It's not that they didn't want to save them, but those people also came from the Cang family of Baxing, an incredibly powerful and domineering family.
Not to mention that in this era, a peerless overlord who shook the ancient world appeared, with the demeanor of an emperor.
Who would dare to provoke such a powerful clant away."The former stray dog is quite bold now, isn't he" Kagami looked at Naraku with a teasing smile.To be so ridiculed by such a beautiful woman, any man would feel a sting to his pride.Nara's fac...
