Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 71 Swallowing the Ancestral Talisman
"Boy, don't look at it. If it doesn't work, just marry her and take her home. Some of them are for you to see."

The little mink standing on his shoulder looked at Lin Dong with a teasing expression, his eyes full of amusement, and laughed strangely, making Lin Dong feel even more uncomfortable.

"In this regard, Master Diao feels that you are much better than that monster in your clan. Tsk tsk, you don't understand the joy of life. That guy actually doesn't want such a top-notch beauty. And the sister of the reincarnationist is also a top-notch beauty. Tsk tsk!"

As Xiao Diao spoke, he shook his head and sighed. His expression was a bit regretful, which made Lin Dong look at him strangely.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Let's go down and take a look first. As for Qianqian... we'll talk about it later!"

Lin Dong didn't know how to deal with this kind of thing. It seemed that the young patriarch didn't seem to be in a good condition either. Helplessly, he could only shake his head and not think about it.

"Let's go down and take a look!"

With the help of Xiao Diao, the man, the marten and the tiger quickly descended deep underground. The next moment, Lin Dong and Xiao Diao's eyes were focused directly on the stone pillar in the middle of the altar.

There was nothing in the entire empty altar, except for a whirlpool on the stone pillar in the middle, which led to nowhere.

Lin Dong, standing on the altar, felt the unusual movement of the Niwan Palace. There seemed to be a faint sense of calling coming from the vortex. Seeing this, Lin Dong gritted his teeth and stepped directly in.

……

"The power of the ancestral stone? Have you ever seen the ancestral stone?"

Compared to the Supreme Power that can be cultivated through inheritance, the old man with black pupils is obviously more interested in the second-ranked divine object, the ancestral stone refined by Fu Zu himself.

"Yes, the ancestral stone already has an owner, who is inside the ancient stele. However, the spirit of the ancestral stone has not yet awakened."

Lin Xuan responded softly, which made the old man with black pupils smile more happily, and he said with a chuckle.

"It's good that it has an owner. It means that there are still many outstanding people in my Tianxuan Continent. By the way, you came here for the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, right? It's a pity that the Ancestral Talisman was taken away three years ago."

"Lin Xuan did not come here to devour the ancestral talisman this time, but to seek the truth from the senior!"

Lin Xuan clasped his fists and bowed to the black-eyed old man again, and spoke softly, which made the black-eyed old man show a hint of surprise.

"Aren't you here to devour the ancestral talisman?"

The Devouring Ancestral Talisman, one of the eight great ancestral talismans in the world, how precious is it? Its power is unfathomable and its wonders are infinite. I don't know how many people dream of it. How could anyone not want it?
"The ancestral talisman was also born from the way of heaven and earth. If this is the case, why should Lin Xuan give up the distant and seek the near?"

After hearing Lin Xuan's explanation, the old man with black pupils looked a little more solemn. He looked at Lin Xuan, who was calm but determined, and then laughed.

"Haha, good! Good! Good! What a great example of giving up the distant for the near. Compared to you, even I am ashamed of myself! With such understanding, such a character, and such perseverance, perhaps, our Tianxuan Continent will once again welcome a Fu Zu, or even surpass the Fu Zu, to save the world and the water and fire!"

"I don't deserve to save the world. Lin Xuan has received the grace of the world and the blessings of all things. I have to do my best to eliminate the demons. Regardless of right or wrong, success or failure, I have to live up to my heart!"

Faced with the black-eyed old man's praise, Lin Xuan was not too excited. He just responded softly and told him everything he was thinking.

He would not lie to a respectable elder, let alone deceive a hero who gave his life for the world.

“Haha, well said, well said, hahahaha! I never thought that when my Hei Tong’s remnant soul is about to dissipate, I can still see new hope. This can be regarded as not letting down the sect’s kindness and the people’s virtue.”

The hearty laughter echoed across the endless wasteland. It didn't sound like it came from an old man with white hair and beard, but more like that of a high-spirited young man, full of passionate fighting spirit and blood. "Hmm?"

Suddenly, the laughter stopped, and the old man with black pupils glanced into the distance with a look of grandeur in his eyes. A majestic aura instantly rose from the old man with black pupils and swept towards the surroundings.

On the wasteland, when Lin Dong was curiously looking at this mysterious wasteland, he suddenly felt a huge momentum coming, which instantly pressed him to the ground.

Just when Lin Dong was stunned from the fall, the mysterious stone talisman in his body suddenly emitted a warm and pure energy, which completely offset the pressure on Lin Dong.

"what!"

The old man with black pupils exclaimed in surprise and turned to look at Lin Xuan beside him. Lin Xuan nodded slightly, which resolved the old man's doubts.

"Good, good, good. I never thought that my lifelong wish would come true today. I will die without any regrets. Hahahaha!"

Lin Dong had just gotten up from the ground when he heard a hearty laugh echoing in his ears. The next moment, before he could see clearly, a mysterious force attacked him, and then the scene around him changed.

By the time Lin Dong reacted, he had already appeared in front of the old man with black pupils. After looking at Lin Dong with a smile in his eyes, the old man with black pupils set his gaze on the little mink standing on Lin Dong's shoulder and said with a smile.

"A little fellow from the Heavenly Demon Marten Clan, one of the overlords of the Demon Continent. I never thought I would have the chance to see him again."

"Hey, hello!"

The little mink laughed dryly and waved its claws, speaking in a well-behaved manner, which made Lin Dong look at the little mink a little more. In his impression, the little mink had only been so cowardly when facing the young clan leader and the Palace Master of Jiutian Taiqing Palace.

Thinking of the young clan leader, Lin Dong suddenly realized something. He turned around and saw Lin Xuan standing beside him. He quickly greeted him softly.

"Young patriarch!"

"You really did come looking for me."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly in response. He was not surprised by Lin Dong’s appearance. Fate would give guidance.

The black-eyed old man withdrew his gaze from the little marten and looked at Lin Dong, the unaware owner of the ancestral stone. He then glanced at Lin Xuan, who was familiar with him. He was not surprised. Lin Xuan was able to sense the power of the ancestral stone, and it was obvious that he knew Lin Dong.

"Little guy, you are here to devour the ancestral talisman, right?"

After hearing the question from the black-eyed old man, Lin Dong finally reacted. He raised his hand, clasped his fists towards the black-eyed old man, and spoke respectfully.

“Um, yes, I am Lin Dong, the junior, and I am here to greet you, senior!”

"Your natal talisman has a familiar smell. It should be a talisman created by copying the Devouring Ancestral Talisman. It is also related to the Devouring Ancestral Talisman."

The black-eyed old man said to Lin Dong with a smile, then shook his head with regret.

"Logically, I should pass the Devouring Ancestral Talisman to you, but unfortunately, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman has been taken away by someone!"
