Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning
Chapter 852 - 850: The Ancient Lotus Seed’s Unrest, Celestial Demon Eight Riders, Immortal Ancestral Vein
Meng Zhan explained to Jun Xiaoyao.
Generally speaking, a lineage of Exotic Realm Royal Family may have many subordinate General Races under its command.
The Snake Yaksha Race and Abyss Demon Race’s superior is the Celestial Demon King Race, one of the top hundred royal families in the Exotic Realm.
Although this race hasn’t made it into the top ten royal clans, it’s still terribly strong.
Now, Jun Xiaoyao, Meng Zhan, and the others have exterminated the creatures of the Snake Yaksha.
They would naturally alarm the Celestial Demon King Race.
If it were in the past, facing the Celestial Demon King Race, Meng Zhan might have still had some apprehensions.
But now, for some reason, with Jun Xiaoyao around, he felt much more at ease.
Next, Meng Zhan and the others continued forward, as they still had a major goal, to find the Seven Sins Divine Thought.
Compared to killing Exotic Realm creatures, finding the Divine Thought is their main task, the most critical one.
Originally, the members of this team all showed great respect toward Jun Xiaoyao.
After this battle, their reverence for Jun Xiaoyao increased even further.
Jun Xiaoyao’s authoritative status even surpassed that of the team leader Meng Zhan.
Ling Yuan felt somewhat neglected.
It’s not that her battle achievements were lacking, but compared to Jun Xiaoyao, they seemed somewhat dim.
Ling Yuan then understood why so many in the Immortal Realm wanted Jun Xiaoyao to fall.
After all, this feeling of having one’s brilliance taken away isn’t pleasant.
This era of great contention seems to be Jun Xiaoyao’s stage, with most of the brilliance falling upon him.
Watching Jun Xiaoyao’s always expressionless handsome profile.
Ling Yuan suddenly felt that Jun Xiaoyao probably felt quite lonely.
After all, so many people wanted him dead.
Even the heavens seemed to wish for his demise.
"Tsk... what was I thinking, actually sympathizing with this damn guy?"
Ling Yuan snapped back to reality, secretly spat.
This damn guy has done so much excessive things to her, even branded a special mark on her thigh.
She hated him to no end!
Jun Xiaoyao, of course, was unaware of Ling Yuan’s inner play.
He was checking his Merit Jade Talisman, which had already accumulated a substantial amount of merit points.
Evidently, the merit points of the Quasi-Supreme of Snake Yaksha were also pocketed by Jun Xiaoyao.
It’s not that Jun Xiaoyao was intentionally stealing the spotlight, but it was the only method to kill Snake Yaksha without letting him escape.
"Captain Meng Zhan, do we not know the specific location of the Divine Thought seal?" Jun Xiaoyao suddenly asked.
Meng Zhan shook his head and said, "Divine Son, you might not know, but the Divine Thought seal location is not fixed and changes randomly."
"This is also why the Exotic Realm finds it hard to locate the seal."
Jun Xiaoyao realized.
He must think that Cyan Emperor was aware, knowing that the residual Seven Sins Divine Thought might cause great harm in the future.
So he used the method of changing seal locations to keep outsiders unaware.
But unfortunately, it was eventually discovered by the Exotic Realm.
While Jun Xiaoyao contemplated how to locate the Divine Thought seal.
Suddenly, in the Spring of Life within his Inner Cosmos.
The ancient lotus seed that Jun Xiaoyao had ignored slightly trembled.
"Hmm?"
Jun Xiaoyao keenly sensed it.
The next moment, he felt a trace of an aura in the depths, not too far from this Star Domain.
"Could it be..."
Jun Xiaoyao thought of something.
That trace of aura, could it be the nearest location of the Divine Thought to him?
This left Jun Xiaoyao somewhat startled.
Then he understood.
The ancient lotus seed was actually related to Cyan Emperor.
Initially, the ancient lotus seed did not seem to possess any special traits, even the big figures of the Merit Hall couldn’t detect anything.
But after being soaked in the Spring of Life for a period, it seemed to gradually reveal some kind of capability.
Thinking of this, Jun Xiaoyao’s eyes subtly gleamed, and he spoke, "Captain Meng Zhan, should we take a look in that direction?"
"Hmm?"
Meng Zhan and the others were puzzled.
Why did Jun Xiaoyao suddenly want to go in that direction?
"Do you know the location of the Divine Thought seal?" Ling Yuan said coldly.
"If you can’t say anything nice, then shut up." Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
Ling Yuan was once again vexed.
"Alright then, let’s head this way." Meng Zhan nodded, as he himself hadn’t any leads.
Vaguely, Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have become the leader of the team, with the highest authority.
Subsequently, under Jun Xiaoyao’s guidance, the Meng Family team moved toward another Star Domain.
Several days passed.
Midway, Jun Xiaoyao and Meng Zhan encountered some scattered Exotic Realm creatures, swiftly dispatching them.
Finally, they arrived at another Star Domain in the Divine Ruins World.
This Star Domain had exceedingly dense Spiritual Qi.
Band-shaped immortal mist lingered around, comparable to some Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
"Such dense Spiritual Qi, could there be a Heaven and Earth’s Ultimate Treasure?" Meng Zhan exclaimed.
The Divine Ruins World, vast and boundless, also contained some unexplored Treasure Lands.
Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze locked onto a planet in the central region of this Star Domain.
Their group flashed towards it.
This planet’s Spiritual Qi was extremely dense, shrouding the entire celestial body like an atmosphere.
"The Spiritual Qi here is unusually dense." Another Great Knight of the Meng Family questioned.
"There’s a scent of Exotic Realm creatures..." Meng Zhan’s Divine Sense was keen, particularly sensitive to Exotic Realm creatures.
He could sense many Exotic Realm creature auras on this planet.
"And there’s an energy, a tremendously vast energy within this planet." Jun Xiaoyao said.
His Divine Soul Perception was sharper than Meng Zhan and the others.
Immediately, Jun Xiaoyao and the others concealed their presence and discreetly landed on the planet.
At the same time.
On a gigantic continent on the planet.
A dense mass of Exotic Realm creatures was excavating something.
It turned out to be a massive Immortal Source Spirit Vein buried in the earth.
The enormous Immortal Source Spirit Vein, like a snow-white winding dragon, extending deep underground.
The Spiritual Qi was unimaginably dense.
And beside the Immortal Source Spirit Vein, four iron-tower-like figures watched the Exotic Realm creatures labor and excavate.
These four all wore jet black armor and rode various powerful Exotic Beasts.
Just the mounts alone had Great Saint Peak cultivation.
They were none other than four of the Celestial Demon Eight Riders, famously known in the Celestial Demon King Race.
"Didn’t expect the seal location of the Divine Thought to be beneath a segment of the Immortal Ancestral Vein."
One knight, holding a long axe, spoke in a booming voice.
He was the fifth among the Celestial Demon Eight Riders.
"Fortunately, we came with the guidance of the Immortal skilled in calculations and divination, who roughly speculated the potential places for the seal location. Otherwise, it’d be difficult to find."
Another knight wielding a blood-colored long saber said, he was the sixth.
"The four elder brothers have already ventured deep into the Immortal Ancestral Vein to investigate the seal’s condition, and our task is to excavate this segment of the Immortal Ancestral Vein." The seventh knight said.
"But earlier, the aura from Snake Yaksha’s team vanished; it seems they encountered a formidable Immortal Realm foe." The eighth knight remarked.
"What formidable foe, all are mere trash in the hands of our Celestial Demon Eight Riders!"
"Indeed, Immortal Realm cultivators, we’ll kill every single one!"
The four Celestial Demon Black Knights sneered coldly.
Little did they know, someone was secretly observing them from the distant mountains.
