“Three thousand years ago?”
Everyone present frowned when they heard this. Three thousand years was such a long time. Unless it was an expert at the Dao seeking realm, who else could live that long?
Even an expert at the divine treasure realm would only have a lifespan of two thousand years.
The founding ancestors of their sects were all only at the Divine Treasure Realm. Naturally, they would not know who this Lin Ran was.
“Speaking of which, isn’t White Bone Taoist an expert in the Dao seeking realm? Perhaps this fiend ancestor Lin Ran is his friend.”
No one knew who had suddenly said this, but they hadn’t taken it seriously at first.
But Elder Wen Jian and the other two were, after all, shrewd and experienced.
On careful thought, White Bone Taoist was an expert in the Dao seeking realm, and the far north simply didn’t have enough resources to support him.
However, he had taken the initiative to come to the northernmost region, and had stayed there for a thousand years. When he had seen the stone stele just now, he had clearly understood something.
If that was the case, then Lin Ran really did know White Bone Taoist!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. The sect leader of the Blood Fiend Sect immediately expressed his stance to White Bone Taoist.
“Lord White Bone Taoist, if this secret realm really is where your friend is buried, then our Blood Fiend Sect will naturally do our best to assist you.”
When Elder Wen Jian and the Fire Palm Saint Emissary saw this, they both frowned.
The fire palm saint emissary, in particular, immediately pulled a long face like a horse.
Your Blood Fiend Sect wants to curry favor with White Bone Taoist and connect with the Dark Yin sect from him, but our Zoroastrianism sect doesn’t need it!
Damn it!
We agreed to advance and retreat together, but now you want to burn the bridge after crossing the river with me?!
Although they didn’t know much about the White Bone Taoist’s background, after many years of investigation by the three great sects, they could roughly understand that the White Bone Taoist had a deep relationship with the mysterious dark sect.
This was also the reason why the three great sects were so humble in front of the White Bone Taoist – because compared to the mysterious dark sect, their so-called three great sects in the far north were simply a pile of dog sh*t!
Dog sh*t was nothing!
They could easily kill any of their true disciples or elders.
Because they were both devil cultivators, after the Blood Fiend sect found out about this, they had always wanted to connect with the mysterious dark sect through White Bone Taoist.
They all knew this, but they didn’t expect that the Blood Fiend sect master would be so shameless and act so obsequiously in front of everyone?
Elder Wen Jian and Saint Emissary of Palm Fire could not help but get really angry and glared at the Blood Fiend sect leader.
The Blood Fiend sect leader also felt that the two of them wanted to eat him up, but he did not care.
A group of idiots!
What did it mean to be a dao seeking realm expert? That was a true eternal big shot who could live for ten thousand years. The existence of Xiang Tian Dao seeking meant that people like them were just slightly bigger ants in the eyes of others!
Moreover, there was still the Dark Yin sect backing them up. As long as they could form a relationship with the Dark Yin sect, would the Blood Fiend sect still use the northernmost land to fight with you idiots for resources?
Those idiots who could only see the small benefits in front of them would sooner or later be finished!
The Blood Fiend sect master looked at the White Bone Taoist obsequiously while cursing the two of them in his heart.
But to everyone’s surprise, White Bone Taoist did slowly shake his head.
“I don’t have the ability to be the devil ancestor’s friend. To be able to become his friend, who isn’t a world-shaking, unparalleled expert who looks down on the world?”
Boom!!
White Bone Taoist’s words were like a clap of thunder exploding in their ears, shaking half of their bodies to the point of numbness.
White Bone Taoist’s words were saying that fiend ancestor Lin Ran was even stronger than him?!
White Bone Taoist was already the strongest person they knew of. Stronger than him?! Just how strong was he?!
Could he be the Legendary Saint?
“Lord… Lord White Bone Taoist, you… you’re not joking, right?”
The Blood Fiend sect master looked at White Bone Taoist with a look of astonishment. For a moment, he couldn’t even speak clearly.
The tomb of a Saint?
It was actually the tomb of a Saint?!
At this moment, these four words were constantly lingering in his mind.
He felt even more regretful. He had thought that at most, it would be the burial place of a Dao seeking state expert. That was why he had promised not to take the things inside.
He had wanted to establish a relationship with the mysterious dark sect and then think of a way to become a vassal of the mysterious dark sect and leave this bitterly cold place in the extreme north.
But who knew that it was actually the tomb of a Saint?!
One had to know that the sect master of the Dark Yin sect, the Dark Yin demon Saint Ying Wuqiu, was only a saint.
If I had known that this was the tomb of a saint, I would have risked it no matter what!
As long as I could obtain the treasures inside, why would the Blood Fiend sect need to support the Dark Yin Sect?
I might even have the chance to step into the realm of a saint and enjoy an endless life.
“I don’t joke around.”
The White Bone Taoist shook his head with a serious expression.
“Devil Ancestor Lin Ran, this title is not his own. It is the recognition of the immortal and devil paths in that era.”
“You all know about the mysterious dark sect, right?”
The three of them nodded in unison, the Blood Fiend sect master said even more excitedly, “Sect master of the mysterious dark sect, the mysterious Dark Devil Saint Ying Wuqiu is a powerful figure in the saint realm. He once wiped out an entire region in one night and single-handedly fought against the Azure Cloud Sect’s heavenly venerate and the three grand supreme elders. He can be said to be the strongest of the two thousand devil paths!”
Although the sect master of the Blood Fiend Sect was still muttering about the mysterious dark sect in his heart just now, he was still so excited when he mentioned the mysterious dark sect that he gave a thumbs up.
“Could it be that this Lin Ran is related to the mysterious dark sect? !”
Suddenly, the Blood Fiend Sect leader’s heart thumped as he thought of a possibility.
“More than that.”
White Bone Taoist smiled and shook his head. Then, his gaze landed on Elder Wen Jian.
“Elder Wen Jian, you’re obsessed with swords. Have you ever heard of this person?”
“Who?!”
“Ye Guhan, the god-slaying sword saint.”
Elder Wen Jian’s eyes immediately widened. Just a name was enough to make this sword saint, who had lived, died, and been obsessed with swords for his entire life, retreat several steps.
“Ye Guhan, the god-slaying sword saint who single-handedly massacred the North Sea Dragon City, killed the North Sea Dragon saint, and even skinned him to make a dragon boat?!”
As the sword elder spoke, his body trembled slightly.
Because only the swordsman knew what the three words ‘Ye Guhan’ represented.
In the eyes of the current generation of swordsmen, these three words seemed to contain the pinnacle of the Dao of the sword. This person was synonymous with the sword, an existence that they could only hope to catch up to!
“It can’t be that this person is also related to Ye Guhan, right?”
Although Ying Wuqiu and Ye Guhan were both devil cultivators, one was a sect founder while the other was a sword cultivator.
These two people did not have any interactions?
To be able to interact with these two people at the same time, how powerful must they be?!
“Not only that.”
White Bone Daoist still shook his head, then looked at the Palm Fire Saint Emissary.
“Others may not know how that ball of divine fire in your sect came about, but I am well aware of it.”
“The little spark that Poison Fire Devil Saint Situ Miao released while refining pills was picked up by your fire worship sect and brought back as the foundation of your sect, right?”
“Lord White Bone Taoist, what do you mean by this?!”
The fire palm saint emissary was shocked by White Bone Taoist’s words. This was a secret of their sect, how did he know about it?
“Nothing much.”
The White Bone Taoist merely smiled. Then, he looked up at the stone tablet on the surface of the sword and said with longing and yearning.
“I just want to say that these people are all Lin Ran’s disciples. Do you think he deserves to be called the Demon Ancestor?”
