Chapter 186: The Fourth Ancestor Was Devoured

The four patriarchs of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect were no longer in the mood to listen to the annoying words of old monster sword. Instead, they focused their attention on the demon king’s corpse in front of them.

It seemed like they wanted to use the item in front of them to restore the scene they had seen during the deduction.

After trying for a moment, they still could not deduce anything.

Puchi

A patriarch’s face turned red, and he could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

“Oh no, this is the backlash from the heavenly secrets. Fourth, quickly stop.”

After saying that, the fourth patriarch hurriedly cut off the deduction in his heart.

He had originally wanted to use the demon king’s corpse to deduce the method to save the demon race from invading the eastern wastelands in the future. However, a powerful mighty force instantly descended into his sea of consciousness, nearly invading his sea of consciousness.

Thinking of that unparalleled power, the four patriarchs sucked in a few breaths of cold air.

When the other patriarchs saw this, they closed their eyes and gathered their spiritual power onto the four patriarchs. After a long time, they slowly suppressed the backlash in his body.

Faced with the illusory backlash of Heaven’s secrets, Old Monster Sword and Bai Xueling could not help but wait by the side.

A moment later.

The four of them slowly opened their eyes. They could only sense that their auras were weaker than before.

Just as Bai Xueling was worried.

One of the Patriarchs waved his hand.

“Your Four Patriarchs are fine now. It’s just that I’m afraid that they won’t be able to use their deductive techniques anymore. Sigh!”

The four of them slowly sighed.

One had to know that the reason why their divination skills were more powerful than ordinary divination skills was because the four of them had grown up together as fellow disciples. They had long reached the stage where their hearts and minds were linked. In addition to the hundreds of years of meditation.., the few of them had already reached an incomparably tacit understanding realm.

This time, fourth suffered a backlash from the heavenly secrets. In addition to the injuries they had sustained when divining the child of fate, they would no longer be able to use their divination skills.

However, they were finally certain that the thing in front of them truly belonged to the demon king’s corpse!

At this point, they were even more certain of Bai Xueling’s words.

“Ling ‘ER, no matter who the child of fate is, you don’t have to tell us. We will know when we need to know!”

“However, there is one thing that you must remember. Before the child of fate grows up, you must always protect him. Don’t give the demon race any chance to take advantage of him.”

“The child of fate is not only important to the demon race. His future role may exceed our imaginations.”

“All we can tell you is that we must protect him at all costs!”

Once these words were said, Bai Xueling and old monster sword were stunned.

Clearly, they did not expect that the patriarchs would not ask who the child of Fate was. Instead, they asked them to protect him at all costs.

Old Monster Sword, who had been waiting to brag to the four patriarchs, now had a red face.

More importantly, they asked him to be the Dao Protector. Did he need that Kid?

Old Monster Sword felt uncomfortable. These old fossils didn’t want to hear it. If he didn’t say it, he couldn’t take it anymore.

It was really unbearable.

“You old farts, the son of fate is on my disciple’s Sunset Peak. He has already reached the legendary realm and his cultivation is several streets ahead of us. How can we protect him?”

“Damn it, this old man is suffocated to death. Seriously!”

Old Monster Sword finished his words in one breath and his face revealed a relaxed expression.

Hu Hu!

When the Patriarchs heard this, a faint light flashed in their eyes before it dimmed again.

Then, one of them said faintly.

“Ling ‘er, you guys should go back first. Don’t tell anyone about what you said today!”

After saying this, the four of them fell silent one after another. There was no longer any fluctuation.

If it wasn’t for the faint feeling of life force on their bodies, they wouldn’t have realized that these four sitting figures were actually living people.

“Yes,”Bai Xueling replied, then turned around and prepared to leave.

“Oh right, don’t come over anytime soon. We’ll contact you if there’s anything!”

Ripples spread out in the air, and then it returned to calm.

“Little Ling ‘er, have these old fogeys been sitting around for too long and become moody? Why are they chasing us away for no reason? !”

“Something’s wrong, something’s very wrong!”

“Master, don’t say anymore. The patriarch has his own reasons for making such arrangements. Let’s Go!”

Bai xueling turned around and looked at the four motionless figures.

The two of them turned into flowing lights and flew away from the cliff.

Not long after they left, a ripple appeared in space.

A figure emerged from the void. It was none other than the sect master of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect, Zhuang Changhe.

Zhuang Changhe looked at the two streaks of light that left with a deep meaning. Then, he slowly walked to the side of the figure that was sitting on the cliff.

“Four patriarchs, I, Zhuang Changhe of the mysterious Heavenly Sword sect, have met you before!”

“What are you here for?”

An unhurried voice sounded. It seemed to contain a trace of doubt.

Zhuang Changhe smiled and nodded. Then, he recounted the scene in the nine peaks training ground. Then, he turned his gaze to the patriarch who spoke just now.

There was a moment of silence.

One of the patriarchs said indifferently, “We had a feeling just now that our cultivation base was one step closer to triggering the aura. There’s nothing to be surprised about. You can go back now.”

“Yes, yes, yes! Congratulations to the Patriarchs for taking one step further!”

“Since there’s nothing else, then I’ll take my leave!”

Zhuang Changhe’s gaze swept across the bottom of the cliff, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

“Farewell!”

With that said, he disappeared from where he was.

After a long silence, the four figures opened their eyes.

“The holy war! The son of fate, the demon king, and the Holy Son will eventually have a battle!”

“Will he succeed this time?”

“Hehe! Who Knows?”

“The son of fate in this life has descended upon our Blackheaven Sword sect. It might be our chance. His strength has even exceeded everyone’s imagination.”

The fourth patriarch coughed loudly a few times, and a trace of dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He said in a weak voice, “The demon is still alive. It is extremely difficult to succeed. However, we are already old, and there is very little we can do to help!”

“HMPH! As long as he dares to appear again, even if we have to risk our lives, we must open a path for him!”

“So what if he is the Devil Emperor? He is just a traitor who has been spurned by others. Sooner or later, the blame will be placed on him.”

Cough Cough Cough! The sound of coughing gradually became louder.

“Fourth, Are You Alright?”

The three of them sensed fourth patriarch’s weak aura and stopped the topic of conversation with some worry.

“Cough cough! I’m fine, but that bastard’s strength is much stronger than before. I’m afraid he will make his move in three months!”

“Let’s not talk about this for now. You should refine this thing First!”

“What happens after that will be determined by fate. Let’s just wait and see.”

A crimson flesh that was as large as a millstone appeared in front of the fourth patriarch.

It was one of the pieces of the demon king’s corpse that white snow spirit had left behind before she left.

It contained pure Qi and blood, and it had a good recovery effect. This was also why White Snow Spirit had looked back before she left!

The fourth patriarch sucked the Demon King’s flesh and blood into his body in mid-air, and the Spirit Qi in his body instantly enveloped him.

Waves of pure Qi and blood were stripped off and then entered the fourth patriarch’s body. His weak aura also gradually grew stronger.

Although he could not completely get rid of the backlash he suffered, the injuries on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before long, the edge of the cliff was calm again.
