Chu Mo was left there alone for a while, frowning and muttering to himself, "My Celestial Mirror... can it solve this problem?"
Then, Chu Mo communicated with the Celestial Mirror using his divine sense. Afterwards, he stood there, murmuring, "Celestial Mirror, it can observe all things, be wishful, avoid disasters, shine, illuminate universally, ascend and enter the earth, embody chaos, behead the path, unify, and restore... restore... restore! How could I have forgotten this? Wasn't this an idea I had when I was crafting the Celestial Mirror long ago? It can indeed restore the soul of a being!"
A bitter smile appeared on Chu Mo's face. He had actually forgotten about this. However, it wasn't exactly forgetting, as not all his past life's mories had fully awakened.
In his previous life, his cultivation wasn't at the Supre level, and even though he had plans in the reincarnation, it was still impossible to achieve true perfection. If it weren't for Supre Wuji's reminder, he might not have rembered this even now.
At this mont, Chu Mo looked at the sack in his hand, thinking that since Supre Wuji reminded him, why did he give him a sack?
Chu Mo used his divine sense to glance at the contents of the sack and was stunned. Inside was an entire, complete world. However, this world had no living beings, only a giant old peach tree rooted in the center of the world. One tree, one world!
The tree bore countless flat peaches.
Chu Mo then understood that this old peach tree was actually planted by that old man, Supre Wuji!
The notion that it doesn't belong to this era was totally deceitful!
The old man... isn't unreliable; he's actually quite reliable in his endeavors. But he's a downright old rascal. Without seeing it with one's own eyes, who would believe that the one controlling the qi movent of the entire tunnel world would be such a person?
Chu Mo communicated with the old peach tree and only then realized that this old peach tree... also ca from another world beyond!
It was brought into this world by that person as a seed long ago!
Later, it was given as a gift to Supre Wuji. Then, Supre Wuji planted it and nurtured it bit by bit. So, when the old man said the peach tree doesn't belong to this era, in a sense, it was true.
Chu Mo felt a bit amused himself, thinking, well, old man, I guess I wrongly accused you.
Although the old peach tree was a seed brought from outside, it knew little about the external matters. However, it was quite knowledgeable about many secrets within the tunnel world.
The old peach tree was also very lonely, pleading with Chu Mo to co and chat more often in his free ti. Chu Mo gladly accepted and even promised the old peach tree that one day he would plant it outside and have countless beings accompany it!
This promise made the old peach tree especially happy.
Chu Mo then hung the sack-world on himself and leisurely walked back to the Ancient God Family.
The entire Ancient God Family was in utter chaos!
Even though Chu Mo had already promised, for the sake of Gu Bingbing, not to lay hands on the Ancient God Family again, the fall of the six Supre Ancestors still plunged this ancient clan into endless panic.
They had made countless enemies in the tunnel. In the past, with the six ancestors holding the fort, any adversary could only swallow their resentnt in silence. But now, with all six Supre Ancestors dead, would those past enemies remain indifferent? If they were in the sa position themselves, they knew it was impossible!
So, even though they had so preparation for such an event beforehand, when the mont truly arrived, they were still filled with fear.
It was only at this mont that they truly understood they weren't the strongest people in this world. Their identities, positions, and prestige were as epheral as a mirage.
With the death of the six Supre Ancestors, the decline of the Ancient God Family was inevitable.
Many of the higher-ups in the Ancient God Family finally understood the foresight of the six ancestors in placing their hopes on Gu Bingbing. Otherwise, their situation would have been even more miserable, with consequences they dared not even imagine.
In that sense, they owed thanks to Chu Mo...
This was utterly absurd!
If Chu Mo hadn't killed the six ancestors, would they be in such a plight?
Hence, the entire Ancient God Family was completely conflicted about Chu Mo. They hated him intensely, yet they had to acknowledge that the Young Master Chu from a million years ago, reincarnated and returned, was still the ruler of this world!
As for the help from Supre Wuji and the Buddha, that had beco irrelevant. Because having help was also a testant to one's prowess!
Why didn't those two eternally powerful beings help others?
Chu Mo circled around the Ancient God Family, and unexpectedly, no one stood up to attack him. Those arrays... all silently extinguished. Rather than waste them on Chu Mo, it was better to use them to defend against potential upcoming enemies.
Not even one person stood up to rebuke Chu Mo.
Chu Mo felt a bit disappointed, simply shook his head, and left the Ancient God Family.
He did not return to the Chu Clan Royal Family but headed westward. In that direction, there were still several ancient clans, and Chu Mo planned to roam around and deal with them all at once.
The Ancient Dongfang Clan, Ancient Zhao Clan, and Ancient God Family had already been dealt with by Chu Mo. The Ancient Cao Clan, closest to the Chu Clan Royal Family, was estimated to collapse on its own before Chu Mo could return. If not even the Ancient God Family could be a match for Chu Mo, who in this world could stop him?
Furthermore, the previous instruction by the six Supre Ancient Ancestors of the Ancient God Family to allocate one-third of the family resources to Gu Bingbing had also spread out.
Many then realized that the deputy leader of the Elite Alliance, the legitimate daughter of the Ancient God Family, Gu Bingbing, actually had so karmic connection with Chu Mo. Did she have such a huge influence?
As Chu Mo journeyed westward, the families in the west were all frightened!
The Ancient Ji Clan, Ancient Yang Clan, Ancient Yun Clan in the west... and furthest west, the Ancient Chu Clan. Upon hearing that Chu Mo left the Ancient God Family and headed west, all these four ancient clans collapsed directly.
If it was said that before the collapse of the Ancient God Family, these four clans still had a bit of confidence, then now, they had no confidence left. Only boundless fear remained!
With the news spreading that Deputy Leader Gu Bingbing of the Elite Alliance had relations with Chu Mo, these four ancient clans imdiately contacted Gu Bingbing. They did not hesitate to offer up two-thirds of their resources. One-third of it was for the Elite Alliance, and the remaining one-third was intended to be transferred to Chu Mo through the Elite Alliance, to buy the lives of the children in the family!
It's not that they didn't want to discuss these terms face-to-face with Chu Mo, but firstly, Chu Mo never gave anyone that chance, he would always strike imdiately. Secondly, they still wanted to retain so dignity.
To beg a killer to spare their children would really be too incompetent.
Though everyone might understand this, their enemies would definitely not miss the chance to kick them when they're down!
They would definitely launch endless ridicule on a spiritual level.
Using the Elite Alliance as a dium was much better. Because no matter what, the core mbers of the Elite Alliance are those excellent offspring of the ancient clans. Shalessly associating with them could still be barely considered as family mbers.
The first to act was the Ancient Ji Clan, adjacent to the Ancient God Family and closest to Chu Mo. They surrendered two-thirds of their entire family's wealth almost without any hesitation.
This order didn't even go through the four Supre Ancient Ancestors of the Ancient Ji Clan!
Indeed, the Ancient Ji Clan too had four Supre Ancient Ancestors. In the whole Tunnel World, among the thirteen ancient clans, the majority had four Supre Ancient Ancestors. Among them, the Luoshui Family, Ancient God Family, and Cold Ice Family had six Supre Ancient Ancestors each.
Thus, they were also the most powerful families among the ancient clans.
The Ancient Cao Clan and Ancient Chu Clan each had three Supre Ancient Ancestors. The weakest was the Ancient Dongfang Clan, the first to be wiped out by Chu Mo, with only two Supre Ancient Ancestors. The rest of the families all had four Supre Ancient Ancestors.
Because having four ancient ancestors, this number was approximately the most reasonable. It could ensure the family's absolute security and also provide enough resources for the four Supre Ancient Ancestors for cultivation. If there were more, the resources would be divided up considerably. After all, the structure of the Tunnel had already ford. Events like those of the Chu Clan Royal Family millions of years ago were almost unlikely to happen again.
Thus, in an instance like the Ancient Zhao Clan, although they could have appeared a fifth Supre Ancient Ancestor, they were forcefully suppressed by themselves.
The four Supre Ancient Ancestors of the Ancient Ji Clan tacitly consented to the act of their descendants giving away two-thirds of the wealth. Because, in their hearts, they clearly knew: if those two transcendent beings didn't intervene, then Chu Mo showing up in their face ant certain death; if those two beings continued to intervene, then among the thirteen ancient clans in the entire Tunnel, none of the Supre Ancient Ancestors would escape! Rather than this, it's better to face it calmly.
After all, these were debts from their past!
Since they dared to plant those seeds back then, they couldn't fear reaping the poisonous fruits today.
Even if eating it ant death, they had to maintain their deanor and face it calmly!
This was Chu Mo's second westward journey. Last ti, he went to et the Buddha, to seek the Buddha, but that ti, it was voluntary on his part. It was also due to him that the cause arose. So, he didn't et the true Buddha. This ti, when that woman from outside the Tunnel appeared, both the Supre Wuji and the Buddha appeared. Even though it was again because of him, when fate arrived, he naturally t the old monk and the old Taoist priest.
Throughout this journey, Chu Mo pondered many things. But this did not include his attitude towards the thirteen ancient clans.
Perhaps not all creatures in the thirteen ancient clans deserved to die, but as for those Supre Ancient Ancestors, every single one of them deserved to have their heads chopped off. There would be nothing unjust about their death!
On the road, Chu Mo already received information about Gu Bingbing, and he smiled, giving a definitive response.
