Reincarnation space, but the style is wrong

Chapter 498 The Seven Lineages Revive the Void Bright Ancestor
Kongming Daoist thought to himself, "I'm afraid I've fallen into someone else's trap."

Otherwise, how could he have encountered two powerful beings as soon as he entered this unknown space-time?
He was already a top existence in his own time and space, and was just one step away from attaining the Great Luo Dao Fruit. Even if that step was vertical, he was still a top existence below the Great Luo.

The being that could make him feel utterly powerless must be one whose essence far surpasses his, such as the Dao Lords and Great Venerables who only exist in ancient legends.

If his guess is correct, then he may have returned to the ancient times, to that era before the primordial chaos was broken.

While Kongming Daoist was still brainstorming, outside the Earthly Origin True Qi, Wanyan Daojun suddenly shouted:
"I'm here to hunt down a wanted criminal from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races. Qingfeng, what are you trying to do?"

Am I going to commit a crime?

Kongming stared wide-eyed, pointed to himself, his face filled with bewilderment.

"Yes, it's you," Daoist Wanyan affirmed. "Unauthorized trespassing into a strategic location of the Myriad Races Alliance is unacceptable..."

"Excuse me, when did the area around my Xuanjun Temple become a strategic location for your Myriad Races Alliance?" Qingfeng said irritably, his face showing displeasure.

"This place was originally the territory of the Tianpeng Clan, but the Tianpeng Ancestor intended to join us before his death, so this place naturally became an important location for our Alliance of Ten Thousand Races."

"You're talking nonsense!" Qingfeng was so angry he almost laughed. He said angrily, "If that's the case, then the Heavenly Roc Ancestor was still killed by my master, Xuanjun. So, doesn't this place belong to my Xuanjun Temple?"

"Besides, if I call out to this land, it will answer. Can you do that?"

As he spoke, Qingfeng secretly manipulated the Earth Book, commanding the earth veins to make the earth tremble gently.

As if in support of his words, the Earthly True Qi shone even brighter, dividing the inner and outer worlds into two distinct realms.

Upon seeing this barrier, Kongming knew that he was now separated from the Daoist Lord opposite him by a pitifully thick barrier.

However, he was more concerned about something else, namely the term "Xuanjun Temple".

If he hadn't misheard, the unknown Daoist priest protecting him should have said that this was the territory of the Xuanjun Temple, which meant...

"I've transmigrated to my own ancestral home?" Kongming exclaimed excitedly.

All seven branches of Xuanjun originated from Xuanjun Temple. As the patriarch who revived the seven branches of Xuanjun in later generations, no one in his era understood better than him just how vast the ancestral Xuanjun Temple was.

Leaving aside the seven ancestral temples located at the confluence of earth veins, the seven inherited spiritual treasures alone are enough to prove this point.

"I am the patriarch who revived the Seven Lineages of Xuanjun. I want to acknowledge my ancestors and return to the clan. I... I want to cling to the patriarch's leg!"

These thoughts filled his mind, and Kongming's gaze toward Qingfeng became fervent, revealing a yearning for progress.

Qingfeng suddenly shuddered and looked at Kongming suspiciously, just in time to catch a fleeting glimpse of eagerness on his face.

"Oh no, could he have feelings for me?"

Qingfeng had to admit that his appearance was too easy for people to be jealous of, and it was understandable that he would attract some unwanted attention from the opposite sex.

But this is unnecessary if it comes from someone of the same sex.

"We need to take him back quickly and let Mo Lin discipline him properly and correct his wrong ideas."

Thinking of this, he looked at Daojun Wanyan, and a wisp of innate, indestructible spiritual light transformed into a long sword in his hand, which he pointed at Daojun Wanyan from afar.

“Fellow Daoist Wan Yan, this is my final warning: either leave, or follow in the footsteps of Ancestor Tianpeng. Choose one.”

The sword gleamed with a cold light, its extreme sharpness constantly tearing through the space around it, even though the wielder hadn't actually swung the weapon.

This spiritual treasure, formed from innate, undying spiritual light, carried Qingfeng's initial Dao principles, namely the ultimate sharpness derived from the Ascending Profound Realm Meditation Talisman. After he learned the remaining six chapters of the Seven Secret Scriptures, his Dao principles advanced further, even becoming sufficient to cut through the Earthly True Qi laid down by the Mysterious Lord.

This is also one of the few methods that can destroy the Earthly True Qi.

Looking at the dark crevices that kept appearing and disappearing near the sword's edge, Daoist Wanyan thought that he was still seriously injured and it was really not advisable for him to fight with others.

"I am injured by the blood-red aura and should not resort to violence. I will let him go for now and get my revenge another day."

Wan Yan Daojun snorted coldly, glanced at the two opposite him with a disdainful and arrogant look, and then his figure disappeared instantly.

"He's already backed down, yet he's still putting on that face. When Master comes back, he'll drag Master along to send him away sooner or later," Qingfeng cursed.

It wasn't that he couldn't defeat Wan Yan Daojun; he simply felt it would be safer to bring his master along. After all, no one could guarantee that a few eighth-level beings wouldn't suddenly appear during the battle and beat him to death with a flurry of punches.

Qingfeng then turned his gaze to the young Taoist behind him, and after confirming several times that the other man's eyes no longer held the same eagerness as before, he breathed a sigh of relief.

With one hand gripping the young Taoist's shoulder, before he could react, Qingfeng led him back to Xuanjun Temple, casually saying:

"Alright, you can start explaining your identity now."

Kongming felt the space shift, and in an instant he found himself in a Taoist temple, which greatly increased his respect for Qingfeng.

More importantly, this spatial teleportation method is clearly the same as the "Ascension to the Profound Realm and Fixed Observation Talisman" from the Seven Chapters Secret Scripture.

His lips trembled slightly, and he became respectful, calling out, "Master!"

Although he was mentally prepared, Qingfeng's eye still twitched slightly.

“I know you are a disciple of the Seven Lineages of Xuanjun from later generations, but I’m asking about your name, your lineage, and which lineage you belong to.”

“Reporting to the Ancestor, your disciple Kongming comes from the Shengxuan lineage and is a disciple of Daoist Qingfeng,” Kongming said respectfully.

The lineage of Shengxuan, isn't Qingfeng Daoist just me?

Qingfeng raised an eyebrow, first ruling out the possibility that he had taken on a disciple while suffering from amnesia, and also ruling out the possibility that Kongming was lying, so there was only one possibility left.

"Have you met your master?" he asked deliberately.

“Uh, Master, to be honest, I have only seen my master’s portrait,” Kongming said embarrassedly. “I only entered Shengxuan Temple by chance because I obtained a secret talisman left by my master.”

"At that time, not only the Shengxuan lineage, but the entire Xuanjun Seven Lineages had been wiped out. After I achieved some success in my cultivation, I left Shengxuan Temple and, following my master's message on the portrait, revitalized the Xuanjun Seven Lineages before attempting to attain the Great Luo Dao."

"Unexpectedly, I got lost in the river of time. Fortunately, I saw a beacon of light, which helped me get out of my predicament and into this time and space."

"Oh?" Hearing his answer, Qingfeng became interested. "You said you revitalized the Seven Meridians of Xuanjun. I wonder how far you've come?"

Kongming humbly replied, "I didn't do much; I just restored the Seven Lineages of Xuanjun to their position shortly after the shattering of the Primordial World."

Not long after the primordial world was shattered, the Seven Lineages of Xuanjun ascended to the pinnacle of the Three Thousand Great Realms, becoming a veritable overlord-level force.

Qingfeng was slightly taken aback, staring at Kongming for a few seconds. Just as Kongming felt uneasy under his gaze, he heard him say:

"Good, good, good. I never thought that my Xuanjun Seven Meridians would have a day when I could rise to the top again. You did a good job, you did a good job."
