Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 321 - 164: One Mountain, One Sea, Suppressing the Jin Family’s Descendants_2

"Elder Jin here, a clan elder among our people."

Both the middle-aged man and the old man took turns to speak, their tone fairly calm and polite.

"The junior has just arrived in the Nine States and would like to gauge his own capabilities, may I know if Clan Leader Jin could assist in arranging this?"

Upon hearing this, Clan Leader Jin was delighted, these words matched his intentions perfectly!

The words of the ancestors had passed ten thousand years, and no matter how much he was influenced by their power, it still felt far too remote.

Ten thousand years could bury too much, including confidence and honor, which inevitably made him harbor some doubts about the young man before him.

Uncertain if the other party could truly carry the hopes of the clan.

Now that the other party had taken the initiative to speak, he didn't need to beat around the bush, and by tomorrow, he could see for himself the merit of this pre-determined young man from ten thousand years ago.

The old man then deeply looked at Ji Jingqiu and slowly said:

"Sparring isn't urgent, as Young Master Ji was chosen by him, his talents and skills needless to be mentioned."

"In a few days, the clan's younger generation will go to the ancient royal city ruins for training, how about letting Young Master Ji lead the team?"

"Ancient Royal City?"

Elder Jin nodded, specifically explaining about the ruins of the King City.

Upon hearing about defeating its guards, enhancing his own Bloodline Dharma Body's concentration, and the familiar name "Six Roots Pure Bamboo," Ji Jingqiu confirmed.

These ruins were indeed the location selected for their competition.

With a strange expression, he spoke softly:

"The junior feels that going to those ruins might not be necessary."

"Not long ago, our federation's younger generation had already entered and swept through them in advance, including the Six Roots Pure Bamboo Forest in front of the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele, which was also cleared out by the junior."

Having said that, his spiritual power began to diffuse, embodying the essence of Great Purity.

Meanwhile, it also confirmed one of his speculations.

After his true body descended in the Nine States, the effect was more exaggerated than the projection's descent; the restriction that bound the Power of the Spirit within his body was nearly nonexistent!

Whether it was due to the environment, or him accomplishing the Spirit Plate Realm, or perhaps both effects combined, his Power of the Spirit could now be purely externalized without any reliance on Secret Techniques or Dharma.

In the Great Universe, this was the privilege of Heart Image Warriors!

This gave him many ideas, temporarily suppressed in his heart, to be verified later.

Feeling the essence of Great Purity contained in Ji Jingqiu's Spiritual Waves, Elder Jin and Jin Lie were both startled.

The ancient city ruins had been swept through?

How could it be, those ruins hadn't even reached the time to open, how could someone enter in advance?!

At that moment, Elder Jin suddenly remembered a secret of the clan, his expression turning grave instantly.

He pondered briefly, then tentatively whispered:

"Did your country perhaps collaborate with that person?"

Afraid his words were too obscure, he vaguely added:

"That is, the person who was saved by Senior He ten thousand years ago and taken to your land."

Saved...

Ji Jingqiu was momentarily stunned.

He guessed that the other party meant Hel.

But the term 'saved' really came across as an understatement that was hard to take seriously.

"Mm... It should be considered a collaboration."

Elder Jin immediately understood, the Old Royal City originally worshipped that Dream Demon.

Moreover, back in the days when Yanfu State was still called You State, that Dream Demon was the biggest ruler of this land.

Jin Lie initially wanted to arrange accommodations for Ji Jingqiu, but he tactfully declined, saying he preferred to rest under a tree.

After both had left, Ji Jingqiu sat under a tree, starting a casual conversation with Aunt Mu.

...

...

"Clan Elder, what do you think?"

On the way back, Jin Lie communicated through spiritual voice.

"Do you think this young man is qualified enough for the clan to follow?"

The old man sighed, "The young are too impulsive," he reproachfully said:

"Our ancestors have awaited and guarded here for thousands of years, not for you, a young newcomer, to hesitate and have second thoughts now!"

"Do you believe if you ask this question in the ancestral hall, the souls of our ancestors could wake up and smack you? They've waited so long, is it for you to retreat now?"

Jin Lie was left speechless, awkwardly responding: "Clan Elder, you know I didn't mean that."

Elder Jin snorted coldly: "Then what do you mean? Don't daydream all day, didn't you see how the Mu God specially favors him? Our clan's relationship with the Mu God is inseparable, do you still want to oppose the Mu God?"

Jin Lie shrank his head, muttering softly: "I don't, but as the Clan Leader, haven't you always said our Werewolf Clan's biggest flaw is not using our brains, and as the Clan Leader, I should consider more for the clan..."

"Elder Jin ordering you to think more on normal days isn't for you to question the decisions of our ancestors!" Elder Jin was furious, the cheeky boy even dared to talk back!

"Being chosen by Senior He, this child must be extraordinary, your judgment, compared to Senior He's, do you still need me to teach you this logic?"

"Besides, even if you lack self-awareness, are you so numb that your nose also failed to work? Didn't you notice the fragrance emitting from the young man?"

Jin Lie then remembered the peculiar fragrance he had smelled earlier, startled by the realization - could it be the legendary Strongest Treasure Body?

After a barrage of scolding, which left Jin Lie utterly compliant, the old man's expression finally softened:

"Arrange for the younger members of our clan tomorrow to spar with him."

"I initially wanted to test the depth and demeanor of this young man, but it was completely obscured by the golden dragon on his shoulder."

"If I'm not mistaken, that golden dragon should be the Spiritual Image of a powerful being, whose power and ranking are even above mine. It must be the Guardian prepared by Senior He for him."

...

...

Under the tree.

[You look up.]

Following Aunt Mu's instruction, Ji Jingqiu's gaze followed the gap made by the tree branches towards the sky, the ancient tree behind him suddenly emitted a dim blue light, staining a corner of the night sky.
