"Is the Sect Leader joking?"

"How is this possible? How could a young kid be the founding ancestor?"

"The ancestor is so young? Could it be that the Sect Leader has been deceived?"

Hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect were in heated discussion, none believing that Gu Chenfeng was the founding ancestor of the Flame Soul Sect.

Even the elders and guardians did not believe it.

Of course.

You can't blame them for that.

Anyone who saw Gu Chenfeng would definitely not believe he was the founding ancestor.

"Aren't you going to pay respects to the ancestor?" Tian Lin sternly scolded, a wave of overwhelming and terrifying pressure intimidating the crowd.

Hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect immediately fell to their knees in respect and said, "Greetings, Ancestor!"

"Rise." Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, slowly descending on the crowd.

"Thank you, Ancestor!" Hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect replied respectfully.

After standing up, they truly began to scrutinize Gu Chenfeng.

What shocked them was that despite their cultivation at the Demi-Immortal and Mahayana Stage, they couldn't discern the depth of Gu Chenfeng's cultivation.

Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly, "I know you are very curious. Ask what you want to know."

A white-robed elder respectfully cupped his fists and asked, "Disciple Tian Mo, the Great Elder of Flame Soul Sect, may I ask if you are the Gu Chenfeng of the Medicine God Hall?"

"Oh? You know about the Medicine God Hall?" Gu Chenfeng looked at the Great Elder Tian Mo with surprise.

Beside them, Tian Lin respectfully explained, "Ancestor, although the Flame Soul Sect has been hidden from the world for many years, we do have some registered disciples in the Cultivation Realm, so we know a bit about the happenings there."

"When we heard about someone named Gu Chenfeng at the Medicine God Hall, we investigated in secret, but due to his young age, we gave up."

"I see." Gu Chenfeng nodded, "The Medicine God Hall was a force I established, as well as the Taiyi Divine Hall."

"This..." Tian Lin and the others were both shocked and utterly baffled.

Wasn't Gu Chenfeng supposed to have already ascended?

When did Gu Chenfeng establish the Taiyi Divine Hall and the Medicine God Hall?

Noticing their confusion, Gu Chenfeng laughed lightly and said, "The reason I appear this way now is related to the cultivation technique I practiced. I have been reborn."

"Reborn?" The hundreds of strong practitioners were collectively stunned, eyes bulging out of their sockets.

Rebirth was something they had never heard of.

"Indeed." Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly, "I have undergone nine cycles of rebirth. The Flame Soul Sect was a force I established during my third incarnation, Tian Wu was my first disciple, and the second was Yun Xi."

"During my fifth reincarnation, I established the Chaos Pavilion. In the seventh reincarnation, I established the Taiyi Divine Hall, and in the eighth, the Medicine God Hall. I am now in the ninth reincarnation."

"....", the Flame Soul Sect was dumbstruck, faces full of shock.

They could hardly believe it, that Gu Chenfeng had experienced nine cycles of rebirth.

How terrifying was this?

Tian Lin, restraining the shock in his heart, respectfully asked, "Then why did the Ancestor not return?"

Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly, "I devoted myself solely to rapidly advancing my cultivation and completing nine cycles of reincarnation, dedicating all my time to cultivation."

"After instructing Tian Wu and Yun Xi in cultivation, leaving them with the Supreme Battle God Technique among the four Attribute Cultivation Techniques, and some Immortal Techniques, I left the Flame Soul Sect."

Upon hearing this, the hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect were now one hundred percent certain that this sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth was indeed the founding ancestor of the Flame Soul Sect.

Because outsiders had absolutely no knowledge of the Supreme Battle God Technique's existence.

Looking towards Tian Lin, Gu Chenfeng continued with a smile, "You are now practicing the Supreme Alchemy Technique, aren't you?"

"The Ancestor is correct, it is the Supreme Alchemy Technique!" Tian Lin replied with great excitement, "Over the millennia, several ancestors of the Flame Soul Sect have reached the realm of the Ninth Grade Alchemist, relying on the Supreme Alchemy Technique."

Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly, "If you can break through to the Ninth Grade Alchemist realm, it shows your alchemical talent is extremely high. Currently, Yao Xuan of the Medicine God Hall has just broken through to the realm of the Ninth Grade Alchemist."

Tian Lin modestly smiled, "My alchemical talent is far inferior to that of the Ancestor and the ancestors. If not for the guidance of the ancestors, I fear it would be difficult to break through the Ninth Grade realm."

"No need for modesty." Gu Chenfeng patted Tian Lin's shoulder with a light smile, "Your talent isn't inferior to that of Tian Wu. Everyone who breaks through to the Ninth Grade Alchemist is a genius among geniuses."

An elder respectfully asked, "Ancestor, has the Chaos Pavilion been just like us, hidden from the world for all these years?"

"That's right." Gu Chenfeng replied with a faint smile, "In all these years, I haven't returned to the Chaos Pavilion, so I don't know how it has fared."

Memories flashing through his mind, Gu Chenfeng continued, "My return this time is because I have an important task for you."

"Please give your instructions, Ancestor!" Tian Lin and the others respectfully cupped their fists.

Gu Chenfeng's expression turned serious, "People from the Immortal Realm have stepped into the Cultivation Realm. You should be aware of this to some extent."

Tian Lin respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Ancestor, 20,000 years ago, I noticed people from the Immortal Realm infiltrating the Cultivation Realm. They devoured the Primordial Spirits of the realm's powerhouses without restraint."

"Some major forces even perished as a result. There were also people from the Immortal Realm who stepped into Void Soul Mountain, but they were repelled by the Sect Protection Array. Recently, another person from the Immortal Realm came, but was repelled by the array as well."

"If not for the extreme strength of the Flame Soul Sect's Sect Protection Array, the sect might have been destroyed already."

"In that case, the Chaos Pavilion should also be under their watch." Gu Chenfeng frowned, a flash of dangerous intent flickered in his eyes.

Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly, "Nowadays, the ancient sects and some major forces in the Cultivation Realm all have people from the Immortal Realm backing them. They secretly collaborate with the Demon Race, absorbing demonic energy for cultivation, resulting in countless innocent cultivators' tragic deaths."

"From now on, the Flame Soul Sect will come out into the open! I want you to immediately investigate in secret to see if you can find the purpose behind all this."

"Understood!" Tian Lin respectfully received the order, then commanded, "Disciples of the Flame Soul Sect, hear my command! Immediately set out to investigate this matter in secret!"

"Understood!" Hundreds of strong practitioners respectfully adhered to the command.

Tian Lin looked toward several elders and guardians, saying, "Elders, guardians, you must go as well."

"Yes, Sect Leader!" Tian Mo and several others responded respectfully.

However.

Just as Tian Mo and other strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect were preparing to set off, the independent space of the Flame Soul Sect suddenly began to vibrate violently.

The entire Flame Soul Sect was struck with fear and dread.

Tian Lin hurriedly exclaimed, "Ancestor, the people from the Immortal Realm have come again!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Hissssss!"

Explosions echoed throughout the independent space, a terrifying power sweeping instantly across the entire space, the sky above tearing open innumerable cracks.

The independent space seemed on the verge of collapsing.

Tian Lin urgently shouted, "Quickly activate the Supreme Soul Destruction Array!!"

"Understood!" Hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect shouted in unison, channeling their Spiritual Power with all their might.

But just as Tian Lin and the others were about to activate the grand array.

Gu Chenfeng spoke up, "No need."

"No need?" Tian Lin and hundreds of strong practitioners of the Flame Soul Sect were taken aback.

Gu Chenfeng grinned coldly, "I was waiting for them."
