Chapter 824 The Secret Treasure

The little Taoist child laughed but said nothing.

The eyes of Cloud Light Saintess were fixed firmly on the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword in Li Mu’s hand. Her eyes became bright and passionate, as if she had seen the most beautiful scenery in the world.

Whispers were heard everywhere around the Sword Competition Square.

Rubbing his temples, the immortal Taoist recalled an ancient legend that had been passed down in his sect. He didn’t expect that the God Killing Broadsword did exist in the world, and this forbidden weapon was unexpectedly in Li Mu’s hands.

“Is it the will of Heaven?”

“Or was it arranged in secret?”

Was his senior apprentice already aware of the truth? That was why he had told him to wait and watch.

The atmosphere instantly turned strange because of the three words “God Killing Broadsword”.

Li Mu perceived the change at a glance, and he was puzzled as well.

“Is the origin of Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword so extraordinary?”

The strange broadsword obtained from the Mogao Caves could intimidate so many god descendants present. Even Cloud Light Saintess gave up fighting with Li Mu. Countless eyes seemed to be glued to the sword. Their covetousness were very evident.

Li Mu thought for a moment. When he fought with eight or nine god descendants using the broadsword just now, the sense of crushing and smashing everything was indeed terrifying.

“Since Li Mu has been accepted by the God-killing Broadsword, it means that he is qualified to appear on Mount Tianxuan,” Athanasia Taoist child said with a smile. “Your Highness, it’s almost time. The Gate of the Ancestors may be opening soon. We don’t have much time to waste on internal strife. Otherwise, if we miss this big event, I’m afraid neither of us can afford it.”

Cloud Light Saintess looked up at the sky.

The enormous space-time vortex had surely expanded to the maximum.

A sliver of starlight could be seen vaguely at the vortex center. It seemed that the light was connected to another world, where the aura was different from Qinling. The aura seeped out from the bottom of vortex, which was so vast, distant, mysterious, and fascinating.

Endless electric plasma flowed at the edge of vortex, containing ancient symbols. The surrounding Spiritual Qi of the Heaven and Earth gathered and suppressed at the edge, which stabilized the vortex.

Indeed, it was time to open the gate.

She became silent, which was an indication of her attitude.

The little Taoist child added, “it is said that there are six Extraterrestrial Devils in total. But now, only five members of our god descendants have come. I don’t know why the Tingyu clan hasn’t arrived yet. We can’t wait any longer. Why don’t we permit Li Mu to join us? So we’ll have six members to go into the six gates respectively. As you’ve seen, he is more than capable to do so.”

“Him?” The Cloud Light Saintess scoffed. “A mortal?”

Li Mu retorted and said, “So what? I can still behead you.”

“You’re courting death!” The Cloud Light Saintess raged.

Li Mu put away the Samsara Knife and held the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword in his right hand. The sword momentum spread out, and he emitted the terrifying aura of a Killing God. This was a kind of pressure that only god descendants could feel and it spread out wildly in all directions with him in the center.

“Ahem, Ahem. Well, please let’s have less talk. We should focus on the most important thing.” Seeing the quarrel about to start, the Athanasia Taoist Child quickly stopped them again.

Cloud Light Saintess snorted. “Once we’ve solved the current problem, I must kill this lowly mortal.”

With these words, her figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Li Mu didn’t say retaliation with any harsh words.

But a great killing intent had already accumulated in his heart.

If there was a chance in the future, he wouldn’t mind killing this woman.

“Brother Li, this way please.” Athanasia Taoist Child bowed with a smile, and said, “Can we have a talk?”

Li Mu looked back and saw that the injured cultivators of Upper King Realm had been carried away. He had to wait for vengeance later. So he nodded and said, “All right.”

He also wondered what the little Taoist child was going to say.

They arrived at the stone steps of the Sword Competition Square. Li Mu closed his eyes and rested for a while. His injuries healed, and he put on another set of sportswear. With a brief perception, he knew that the camp wasn’t in any danger, so he sat down.

“Please excuse my having not recognized you. You are the real master.”

Li Mu made an obeisance to the little Taoist child by cupping his hands before his chest.

Frankly, he did not feel all that grateful to him.

Because Li Mu felt that he had likely been tricked by the little Taoist child.

When Li Mu arrived at the Sword Competition Square, both the little Taoist child and Immortal Taoist were there. At first, it was the Immortal Taoist who spoke up for him, while Athanasia Taoist Child had no intention of showing up from beginning to the end. It was not until he took out the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword that the Athanasia Taoist Child showed up.

Li Mu didn’t believe that Athanasia Taoist Child was not planning any schemes.

“Well, it’s not convenient for me to say something just now. Please forgive me.” The little Taoist child smiled sincerely and said, “I’m Athanasia Taoist, the eldest brother of Chunyang Clan, Immortal Taoist is my junior fellow apprentice. Something unexpected happened during my Cultivation Method, which turned my figure to that of a child.”

Comprehension suddenly dawned on Li Mu.

“That’s why he always appears as a child and never grows.”

“Brother Li, do you know why so many cultivators have gathered here?” Athanasia Taoist Child asked.

Li Mu replied, “Isn’t it for the sake of Gate of the Ancestors?”

“Well. Bro, do you know what the world is like behind the Gate of Ancestors?” Athanasia Taoist Child asked again.

Li Mu replied, “Sorry, I don’t know.”

“Ho Ho. You must have heard from Senior Yu that during the later period of the world, it was ruled by gods; when the enemies came, these gods came down from the heavens to save the world. And the six major clans betrayed them.” The Athanasia Taoist Child cut to the chase.

Li Mu nodded and said, “I’ve heard a little about it.”

“Well, that’s easy to explain.” The child smiled and said, “Do you know where the six traitorous clans have gone?”

Obviously, the Taoist child didn’t know where Li Mu had gone during the years of his disappearance from Earth.

Li Mu pretended to know nothing and said, “Are they living behind the Gate of the Ancestors?”

Athanasia Taoist Child nodded and said, “Exactly. Now, the gate has opened which must indicate the comeback of the six clan leaders. We, god descendants, gathered here to ambush these devil betrayers and catch them all.”

Li Mu was stunned and then overjoyed.

“So that’s how it is.”

“These god descendants are actually gathered here to catch the leaders of the six major clans.”

Everything seemed to become easier in an instant.

At least, he didn’t need to fight the six ancestors alone.

God descendants like Cloud Light Saintess were no weaker than the six ancestors. They could easily make it if these god descendants intercepted the six ancestors. It would be impossible for the six to come back and rule the Earth.

However, there was another question.

“Didn’t elders of Mind-clearing Sword Sect in the Mount Shong World say that Elder Jian and other experts were paying attention to Gate of the Ancestors, because they wanted to get rid of the shackles in the world, and step into the universe where they could live forever?”

“Why it is different from Athanasia Taoist Child’s account?”

Li Mu pondered over the reasons.

“Besides, I have another question.” The Athanasia Taoist Child continued, “Brother Li, do you know why the six betrayers who were lucky enough to escape came back to court death?”

Li Mu thought that, “Maybe the six ancestors don’t know that the god descendants on Earth have been resurrected to such an extent. If they did, I’m afraid that they would not dare to come here even if they were beaten to death. Instead, they would have fled far away.”

“Oh, why?” Li Mu said perfunctorily, “Please enlighten me.”

The little Taoist said with a smile, “Anyway, it’s not a secret. Brother Li, with your profound cultivation, you’ll know the truth sooner or later. So, I won’t conceal the fact. The reason why they came back was to seize the treasures and seek immortality.”

“Treasures of gods?”

Li Mu was intrigued.

This explanation was a bit similar to what the six ancestors had said before.

In Heavenly Fox Secret Realm, Young Masters and Ancestors of the six major clans had mentioned that, in order to unify the universe and live eternally, they must return to the Earth to grab the treasures left by gods of the Dark Yellow Clan.

Li Mu didn’t think too much about that at that time.

But now, he felt that maybe it was time to adjust the thoughts.

When he was in the Mount Shong World, he saw an ancient record of the Mind-clearing Sword Sect, which recorded a partial history of the Yellow Dragon Tribe. It mentioned that there was a yellow dragon who was a spiritual beast guarding the Pantheon door. The so-called Pantheon probably had something to do with the gods’ treasures.

Li Mu felt vaguely that some clues in his mind were gradually coming together.

At the same time, he thought of another thing.

Perhaps the six ancestors knew the risk of returning to the Earth, but they had to take the risk in order to pursue the secret treasures of the gods. They also killed Bai Jun the God of War and integrated his divine blood. In addition to opening the Star Graveyard tactical deployment, perhaps there was another important reason, which was to improve their own strength.

Everything made sense.

However, there was another question.

Li Mu frowned and asked, “Since it’s called gods’ treasures, it must have been mastered and digested by you. What’s the difference between attacking and courting the death of the six clans?”

The Immortal Taoist smiled wryly.

“That’s the core. Gods’ treasure was indeed our wealth, which should be kept by us logically. However, in a battle thousands of years ago, the six traitorous clans were extremely audacious. They actually dared to steal the key to the gods’ treasures, so we had to guard the treasure mountain but were unable to enter it in so many years.”

He replied with some embarrassment.
