Chapter 2962: Chapter 2936: Fallen to Such a State! (Sixth Update)
Therefore, even though Ye Sheng from Ye Ziming’s lineage is still alive, Ye Zigeng set aside his own petty schemes and seriously started planning for the family, unlike previous ancestral rituals where everyone only thought about how to save themselves.
"Alright, I will bring out an ancestor, no matter what, we must ensure the ancestor protects the family head’s safe departure. What are your opinions?"
After a brief consideration, Ye Ziming looked at the others and inquired.
"Ancestor, please unleash our heritage, the hope for the Ye family’s revival has emerged, we must preserve sufficient seeds of the immortal flames!" The elders of the Ye family nodded in agreement.
The Ye Clan’s heritage is sealed within a small formation barrier inside the Linglong Tower.
According to several of our ancestors, it could be regarded as the tenth level of the Linglong Tower. The space is not large and there is no particular decoration or scenery, just a very ordinary small formation barrier.
If anything stands out, it’s the extremely dense spiritual energy inside this small formation barrier, filled with various treasures that can gather spiritual energy, even including a formation to gather spiritual energy.
Throughout the small formation barrier, spiritual energy is so dense that it almost becomes liquid, even standing outside, one can feel the refreshing and serene atmosphere like a mystical realm, a gentle breath would open every pore on the body, bringing peace of mind.
Amid the water-like inexorable spiritual energy, three elderly figures like withered trees sit cross-legged. Their attire is very ancient, with the oldest being from tens of thousands of years ago.
They might even be from ancient times!
Witnessing the fall of the Samsara Master and the rise and decline of the Ye family!
These three elders, their aura is so faint it almost cannot be sensed, sitting cross-legged with closed eyes like statues, the only daunting aspect is the terrifying pressure naturally emanating from them.
Peak of Heavenly God Realm? Or... higher?
Ye Chen and Ye Lingtian exchanged glances, both filled with astonishment in their eyes.
"Remarkable, I thought Ye Shaoyou had long vanished into the river of history, yet he had sealed his level of cultivation, becoming the family’s heritage."
In Ye Chen’s mind, the words of the Lingtian Arrow God came, full of amazement.
"Master, do you know these three elders?" Ye Chen asked.
"I don’t know the other two, but the one on the far right, I am very familiar with."
Lingtian Arrow God’s voice carried a tone of reminiscence, sighing: "He was a renowned figure back then, with celestial talent and unyielding spirit, astonishing cultivation speed, his Void Heavenly Divine Spirit Technique was unparalleled, and almost invincible at the same level."
Not long after, Ye Chen learned a lot about Ye Shaoyou from Lingtian Arrow God.
Ye Shaoyou, a peerless individual from endless ages past, possessing a unique constitution—the Void Heavenly Divine Body, he gained fame in his youth, at that time, the Samsara Master and Ye family were truly colossal entities of the Divine Kingdom!
No one dared to oppose them even in the Upper Realm and Outer Realm!
With the Ye family, this Big Tree as his backing, Ye Shaoyou’s growth went smoothly.
He rose all the way up, defeating countless contemporary experts, ultimately earning the title of Void Heavenly Holy Emperor.
However, the phrase "Heaven is jealous of talent" is not casually said.
At Ye Shaoyou’s peak, while traveling, he fell into a desperate situation, although he eventually returned, he was left with numerous injuries, especially the most serious Dao injury, nearly impossible to heal.
After that, Ye Shaoyou vanished from sight, and eventually, no one ever saw him appear again.
Like many, Lingtian Arrow God thought he had perished from the Dao injury, only to discover he still lived, and had transformed into one of the family’s heritage.
The so-called heritage is such.
A family, a sect, passes down through generations, always producing some extraordinary individuals, some of whom may die in battle, others may pass away normally, but some may quietly conceal themselves.
Sealing their level of cultivation, sealing their vitality, allowing their body to enter a fake death state.
This allows them to have exceptionally long lifespans, so in the event the family faces some great hardship or powerful enemy, they can be awakened in the shortest time to exert peak-level combat strength.
Then...
After the battle, regardless of victory or defeat, there is death.
Yes, death.
Individuals like them lived endless ages longer in a ’fake death’ state, maybe for thousands of years, perhaps tens of thousands of years, but once they exit this state, after exerting their immense power, their vitality begins to rapidly vanish, unable to exist for long.
Time, unseen and untouchable, yet the most terrifying.
To steal more time from its grasp ultimately requires a greater cost.
This is also why heritage diminishes with use, especially for forces in decline, such heritage becomes crucial, each use needing to be on the edge of the blade.
Under the guidance of Ye Ziming, numerous Ye Clan disciples began to pay homage to these three ancestors, after three kneels and nine bows, Ye Ziming went forward, circulating spiritual energy and slowly channeling it into Elder Ye Shaoyou.
"Boom!"
In no time, a powerful wave suddenly erupted from this withered elder’s body, forming a visibly oscillating force that swiftly spread beyond the Linglong Tower.
"Swish!"
When the elder opened his eyes, golden brilliance shone in them, the terrifying aura instantly permeated the entire Jueye Land, some Ye Clan disciples with insufficient levels of cultivation immediately fell to the ground, unable to withstand the overwhelming pressure.
"Who dares awaken this old man?"
A deep, husky voice echoed, like thunder crashing by the ears, causing many young disciples’ heads to buzz.
"Family’s unworthy descendant Ye Ziming, pays respect to ancestor!"
Ye Ziming immediately knelt down, his head touching the ground.
"Ancestor, the family’s millennia-long ancestral ritual has been accomplished today, the revival of the family is imminent, but we are at the most perilous moment, none of us have sufficient certainty to escape the danger, therefore awakened..."
Whoosh!
Before finishing his words, the elder in ancient costume raised a hand and directly grasped Ye Ziming before him, then, his fingers pointed at Ye Ziming’s brow.
The surrounding Ye family disciples saw this, their expressions slightly changed, but quickly calmed down.
Because this ancestor was reading Ye Ziming’s memories.
"Indeed the same as the rumors of the past, this person hasn’t changed a bit." Lingtian Arrow God chuckled, "Back in the day, he could not stand lengthy speeches of others, often directly reading their memories, for which he almost muddled himself."
A figure who has lived for so many years, the complexity of his memories is naturally needless to say, directly reading it equals experiencing everything others have gone through himself.
Two different memories colliding can easily cause cognitive confusion.
This is only when others do not resist, if the one being read consciously resists, the danger of reading memories becomes even greater.
Not long after, the elder learned the specifics from Ye Ziming, his gray-white hair all stood up, "Hmph, truly a decline from generation to generation, how has my illustrious Ye family fallen to such a state!"
