"Huh? I’ve never heard Master ntion this person before. How does Uncle Luo know about him?" Li Qianluo asked in surprise. Although she was young, she had significant backing and extensive experience, but even she didn’t know everyone.
Luo Shanyou hesitated for a mont before saying, "Daoist Qingde once told many things. He had a profound understanding of many ancient masters and even taught how to discern their auras."
Xiang Beifei asked in astonishnt, "Did my grandfather teach Uncle how to identify the auras of these masters?"
Luo Shanyou nodded slightly, "Yes, before he left, he engraved so things into my spirit mory, so I have a general understanding."
"But why? Why would Grandpa Feifei tell Uncle Luo these things? Logically, without Grandpa Feifei, Uncle Luo doesn’t seem like soone who would co to Common Valley alone, right?" Xiaohei asked in confusion.
Luo Shanyou was silent for a mont, looking at Xiang Beifei, "I always thought he wanted to leave these ssages for the Human Race, to make them more aware of other races, to prepare for unforeseen events. But later, I realized that maybe he knew long ago that I would eventually co along."
Xiang Beifei was silent for a mont.
He had co all this way searching for answers; perhaps his grandfather had anticipated that one day he would co seeking answers.
After a while, Xiang Beifei asked, "What else did my grandfather say?"
"I can’t be sure of much, but I rember that the reason the Heavenly Thunder Venerable was so powerful was that he refined the thunder god patterns of the Heavenly Dao into his body!" Luo Shanyou said.
"Refining god patterns into one’s body?"
Xiang Beifei and Li Qianluo were both shocked!
This ant that the Heavenly Thunder Venerable could control all the thunder and lightning in the world and was the ancestor of thunder!
With just a thought, there wouldn’t be any thunder and lightning in the world, nor would the electricity that Jiuzhou humans relied on function.
"Xiao Li, is this possible?" Xiang Beifei inquired of Li Qianluo.
In his understanding, it seed that only ancestral tools could contain the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
Li Qianluo stroked her chin, recalling for a mont before saying, "Hard to say, I vaguely rember Master ntioning once that the ancient tis were full of talents, with heroes everywhere. Many geniuses—well, those who are truly geniuses—not just those who, after three thousand years, enter the Inquiry Dao Realm and can be called geniuses."
Li Qianluo always looked down on those rankings on the Heaven and Earth Ranking, where being under a thousand years old on the Earth Ranking was considered a genius, or three thousand years old on the Heavenly Ranking, not worth ntioning.
Not to ntion herself and Xiang Beifei, even Luo Shanyou, who is over three hundred years old in the late Inquiry Dao, could easily beat those on the Heaven and Earth Ranking at the Dao Palace.
"In ancient tis, many geniuses were incredibly formidable because many races had their ancestral tools, thousands of ancestral tools, each typically sealing a Heavenly Dao law. But an ancestral tool is also just a tool, and there’s no rule against using one’s skeleton as an ancestral tool.
Soone like the Heavenly Thunder Venerable should be an extrely formidable being of the Thunder Dao Race. If they fused their body with an ancestral tool, it’s not impossible." Li Qianluo said.
"So this is a walking skeletal ancestral tool?" Xiaohei asked.
"Maybe, I’m not really sure either."
"Want to try?" Erha asked eagerly.
The thod to test it was simple: take out an ancestral tool to see if the blue skeleton reacts.
"Even if the Heavenly Thunder Venerable fused himself into an ancestral tool, do you think if this skeleton were a complete ancestral tool, it would deliberately wait for us to be here?" Xiang Beifei said.
"True, this is probably just a fragnt of a spiritual artifact, or else the Dao Palace would have taken it and absorbed it long ago." Xiaohei nodded.
They carefully observed the skeleton and soon noticed that the right hand of the skeleton was missing a section of thumb bone!
"However, this skeletal ancestral tool seems to be quite powerful, stronger even than that long saber from before. The pressure it exerts isn’t weaker than the litian spear of Sheyin City. Strange, it only has one god pattern law!" Li Qianluo said.
From the current situation, the skeleton seems to have only sealed the thunder god pattern, while the litian spear should possess more god pattern laws, but its power isn’t as strong.
"That should be the brilliance of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable, being able to cultivate a single god pattern law to its extre. Its power may not necessarily be weaker than ancestral tools with more god patterns. Daoist Qingde had extrely high praise for him back then!" Luo Shanyou said.
That’s also true; in the three thousand great Daos, not every Heavenly Dao law is ant for combat. So Heavenly Daos might just be tools, and therefore, their power might not be that strong.
"But if this lightning skeleton is fighting with sothing, could it an there’s another ancestral tool here?" Li Qianluo said.
"Yes, ancestral tools only engage in endless battles when encountering other ancestral tools. That should be the situation here. Let’s go see what the other ancestral tool is."
Xiang Beifei glanced again at the two figures in the sky with imposing auras. The terrifying silhouette ford by the residue of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable’s aura was already quite formidable, but it was clear his opponent was not weak either, with the other being a formidable giant dressed in hemp robes.
They tried their best to withstand the pressure on the stairs, knowing the other ancestral tool wasn’t on this side, but it wasn’t far away either.
The skeleton of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable was powerful, and many dared not approach, but Xiang Beifei wasn’t concerned about that. He carefully skirted around the skeleton, heading toward the other side.
Just then, it seed the Heavenly Thunder Venerable in the sky noticed sothing and suddenly let out a low roar, and the overwhelming pressure imdiately bore down toward them. In no ti, thunder rumbled everywhere on the stairs, with stout lightning bolts raining down like hailstones, frightening many to death!
This was an ultimate power of the Ancestral Dao Realm!
The storm of lightning was terrifying. Several late immortality realm law enforcers couldn’t withstand the powerful thunder, and in the blink of an eye, they were completely obliterated, leaving not a trace, not even a scream, including a master from the beginning of the Inquiry Dao who also perished in the thunder!
Xiang Beifei didn’t have ti to move forward. He quickly gathered Luo Shanyou and Li Qianluo and retreated, but the lightning continued to pursue them, roaring towards them. Soon, Xiang Beifei realized the lightning wasn’t targeting them; it was heading toward three people in the crowd!
Those were three n dressed in blue robes, their faces flushed with excitent, their bodies also emanating with electricity. Although these electricities seed minuscule compared to the Heavenly Thunder Venerable’s, they faintly resonated with the thunder from above.
Descendants of the Thunder Dao Race!
"It’s the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor! It’s the Ancestor!"
The leading Thunder Dao tribesman trembled with excitent; the majestic power of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable was stunning in their eyes. It was their arrival that seemingly triggered the resonance of the skeleton, unleashing trendous lightning!
The Heavenly Thunder Venerable was a genius of their Thunder Dao Race, the most illustrious Ancestral Dao Realm master from ancient tis to the present. It was he who established the Thunder Dao Race as a powerful lineage. Yet, the great war a hundred thousand years ago led to the fall of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable here, causing the Thunder Dao Race to beco a second-rate race.
Seeing the Heavenly Thunder Venerable’s skeleton exhibit such might again, how could they not be thrilled as descendants?
"Great Elder! I see the relic of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable! It’s right there!" Another middle-aged man pointed at the blue skeleton on the steps, ecstatic.
"The relic of the Heavenly Thunder Venerable!"
The leading Great Elder’s gaze fell upon the blue skeleton, then moved to the missing thumb of his right hand!
The Great Elder of the Thunder Dao Race’s eyes brightened, then he extended his palm, which imdiately lit up with crackling thunder light. All the light gathered onto his right thumbnail.
His right thumb emitted a terrifying fluctuation, resonating with the blue skeleton in the distance!
It’s an ancestral fragnt!
