I picked up the scattered attributes

"okay!"

The giant jellyfish charged ahead first.

Such a level of cowardice towards life made Feng Xia pause slightly, and another image appeared in his vision: "Ancestor Mu Chen... Huh!"

He suddenly realized something quite strange.

The presence of Ancestor Muchen is ridiculously low!

In his original plan, the true form of Ancestor Muchen was a powerful divine drum. Since the butcher's knife was unusable, that war drum was a good alternative.

When venturing out into the Xuan Yuan world, you always need to have some trump cards up your sleeve.

Putting aside everything else, Old Ancestor Muchen's weight and size are definitely enough to be used as a bottom-level treasure.

"Thinking back carefully, this doesn't seem to be the first time this has happened. It started on the third level of the Demon Emperor's Tomb. I forgot about this guy while I was fighting. I encountered him a few more times afterward. This guy even infiltrated Thousand Autumn Valley as an elder. I was supposed to deal with him, but I forgot about him again."

This time, however, the Old Ancestor Mu Chen, who was supposed to be brought out for self-defense, was completely forgotten by Feng Xia without her noticing!

If it had only happened once or twice, Feng Xia might have thought it was just his oversight.

But it's happened so many times...

Even this time, if it weren't for the giant jellyfish's cowardice reminding him of Ancestor Muchen, Feng Xia would have had enough reason to suspect that even after a long time, he might not have realized this.

"If it's just a matter of having a very low profile, then this situation is a bit too outrageous."

Feng Xia frowned subconsciously: "With my current cultivation level, the fact that I can ignore Ancestor Muchen multiple times means there are probably only two possibilities..."

Either the Old Ancestor Mu Chen's cultivation level is higher than Feng Xia's, or he has other secret treasures on him for self-defense, which can significantly reduce his presence.

Or perhaps... there is an unknown force protecting Ancestor Muchen in the shadows!

"But what is there to protect about that old man? And who is protecting Ancestor Muchen?"

Feng Xia's steps unconsciously paused.

Moreover, if such terrifying power could interfere with Feng Xia's perception in the dark, it would be quite easy to protect Ancestor Muchen. How could he let this fat old man be beaten again and again in his hands?

The number of times Old Ancestor Muchen has been beaten is so many that it cannot be counted on two hands.

"Forget it, anyway, with Sister Wu Guan keeping an eye on things, and Ancestor Muchen's own strength isn't that great, even if something unexpected happens, it's unlikely to cause any major problems."

In the end, Feng Xia gave up the idea of ​​turning back.

We've already come this far, it would be too much trouble to go back.

"Moreover, given this guy's character, even if I go back now, he'll most likely have already run away, and it's impossible to find him in a short time."

Shaking his head slightly, Feng Xia felt invigorated and sped off at full speed, chasing after the giant jellyfish ahead!

And at the same time.

Outside the gate of Qianqiu Valley.

A furtive figure crept through the mountain gate array and walked a considerable distance, glancing back every now and then to make sure no one had noticed him before bursting into smug laughter.

"Hmph! That big devil Xia Donghai is finally gone!"

"From this day forward, the world is vast, and the Ancestor can roam freely as he pleases!"

……

Chapter 0785

The Old Ancestor Muchen was in an extremely pleasant mood at this moment.

Looking across the entire Xuan Yuan world, he was one of the very few who noticed Feng Xia's departure immediately!

For others, Feng Xia's departure might be sad, wistful, or perhaps a relief.

However, the Old Ancestor Muchen was different.

His chest was almost overflowing with joy, and the surging emotions seemed to materialize, making him hum a little tune.

"Holy National Preceptor? Great Demon King? Hehehe, what can they do to me, their ancestor?"

Once they were completely away from the gates of Qianqiu Valley, the rosy-cheeked, radiant old man slightly restrained his unrestrained behavior. With a thought, a map appeared in his mind.

That was a secret place that no one had ever explored before!

"Our ancestor wasn't entirely without gain when he served as an elder in Thousand Autumns Valley. Based on his experience, the things recorded on this map are probably true in eight or nine out of ten cases!"

It was an ancient map that he found in the library.

The map was tucked inside a neglected book. Had it not been for Ancestor Muchen's sudden whim to open it, it might never have been discovered for hundreds of years.

The map depicts an extremely dangerous secret realm.

At the same time, there are many annotations left by predecessors, with handwriting that is both new and old, and they are all different, obviously from different periods and from different people.

"The map is most likely fake, and even if it isn't, the treasure is beyond my reach."

"I've checked out that area; it's very mysterious and dangerous. The treasure is good, but Xiaoming is more important!"

"We can't afford to offend them, we really can't afford to offend them!"

"The year of this map is strange, making it impossible to determine its exact date of creation. Perhaps the mapmaker simply chose a dead-end location to draw it, playing a cruel joke on future generations."

Those comments and annotations kept appearing in the old ancestor's mind.

The failures of many predecessors did not shake Ancestor Mu Chen's determination; on the contrary, they made him even more resolute: "Ancestor's sense for treasures is definitely not wrong. There must be an extraordinary treasure in that place. The only problem is that the protective power of the treasure is too strong!"

Besides his seemingly innate intuition, what other common thread did the Old Ancestor Muchen keenly discover in the annotations?

That means the commentators never actually entered that secret realm!

Basically, they were either frightened away by the terrible crisis in the outer areas, or they suffered heavy injuries after advancing a certain distance and finally had to give up.

"It can trigger the Ancestor's senses and has such powerful protection... Hmph! Once we obtain this treasure, the Ancestor will no longer need to fear that evil star or demon king!"

When he finished speaking to himself, Ancestor Muchen almost instinctively shuddered, shrank his neck, and cautiously looked around.

Then, belatedly, he realized...

Feng Xia has already left the Xuan Yuan World!

The world is vast, and nothing can stop him!

"Those people couldn't get the treasures before simply because they couldn't withstand the dangers outside the secret realm. But for the ancestor, this kind of pure killing formation doesn't pose the slightest obstacle!"

The true form of Ancestor Muchen is an ancient divine treasure, whose defensive power is absolutely unparalleled in the world!

Realizing he had overthought things, Ancestor Muchen couldn't help but burst into laughter, his loud laughter shaking the heavens and earth: "Ancestor is a lucky child blessed by the heavens. As long as that great demon king doesn't return, no one can stop Ancestor!"

High above, the branches of the Moonlit Divine Tree trembled slightly.

A stunningly beautiful figure quietly appeared from the divine tree.

She glanced at the sky, then looked down at the ground. Soon, her gaze settled on a fat old man, and she murmured, "There seems to be another power emanating from him..."

Just then, a slight disturbance came from beyond the sky, instantly attracting Wu Guan's attention.

She turned her head away, completely forgetting about the Old Ancestor Muchen on the ground.

……

"Sure enough, it's so much more convenient to have someone guide you."

In the mysterious space at the bottom of the East China Sea, following behind the giant jellyfish, navigating one danger after another, Feng Xia couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including nostalgia or reflection) as he looked around.

If only we hadn't encountered the giant jellyfish...

In the memories of the goddess Wu Guan, how did those people leave through this place in the past?

No matter how you look at it, this space is far too dangerous, full of eeriness and the unknown. If it weren't for his many tricks up his sleeve, anyone else would probably have died here!

Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would probably be trapped here forever!

"That shouldn't be the case. Why would Sister Wu Guan point me down a dead end? If I had known this place was dangerous, wouldn't it have been better to just go through the Xuan Tian Battlefield?"

Feng Xia's heart suddenly stirred, and he loudly asked the giant jellyfish in front of him, "Three thousand years ago, did you see anyone come to this place, or pass through this space?"

If this was a common passageway in Wu Guan's time, then the giant jellyfish should have seen the arrival of outsiders!

Three thousand years ago?

The ghostly jellyfish paused slightly, its light flashing for a moment, before it asked in bewilderment, "How long ago is three thousand years ago?"

Feng Xia was speechless for a moment: "..."

He vaguely sensed that a similar scene had played out long ago!

How is he supposed to explain the passage of time to a nearly immortal jellyfish?!

But back then, he was facing a beautiful, soft young girl, large and fair-skinned, whose touch was truly unforgettable. As for this giant jellyfish in front of him...

The only remaining impression of Fengxia is that it felt good to poke.

I'll have to find a chance to poke around more often later.jpg

“I have indeed seen some creatures come here, but their numbers are very small, and they have not interacted with me much. Apart from that, I am often asleep and am unaware of what is happening outside.”

The giant jellyfish pondered for a moment, and seeing Feng Xia's eager posture, it hurriedly replied, "You may not know this, but every now and then I instinctively fall into a deep sleep, and when I wake up, I become stronger than before!"

The Shadow Jellyfish has this function?

Feng Xia's first thought was that the Nether Emperor's Seal might be about to awaken!
