The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 385 - 385: The Three Great Powers of the Xu Family, Discussing (First Update)

"No, they have already died."

The Chief of the Sea People Tribe shook his head and explained, "The dangers on the Heroic Path are all real, this is not an illusionary realm. However, after our tribespeople fall on the Heroic Path, their souls return to the Ancestral Tree, and after ten months of gestation, they can be reborn with memories of their past life."

"What a miraculous talent!" Huo Yunjie and the others exclaimed in amazement.

At the same time, they were also in shock.

It turned out that all the dangers on the Heroic Path were real, and if they fell on the path, they really would have lost their lives.

Fortunately, they had made it through.

Soon, the strong ones of the Sea People Tribe carried a hundred large fish to the vicinity of the altar. They quickly processed them and then set up a bonfire, roasting these large fish.

Someone cut the Fire Dragon Fruit into pieces and placed them on plates made from polished bones, bringing them before Huo Yunjie and the others.

In addition, there was a bowl of white dipping sauce.

"The flame of the Sacrificial God Fruit is very strong. When eaten with the dipping sauce, it can neutralize the flame and allow for perfect absorption," the Sea People Tribe's young girl introduced.

"Can't we eat it directly?" Long Tianxing asked.

The girl shook her head, saying, "That would be lethal."

"Ah?" Long Tianxing was stunned.

"The power of the Sacrificial God Fruit's flame is very strong. Without the dipping sauce, it's easy for the flame to burst within the body, and most likely, that would result in death," the Sea People Tribe's young girl explained.

"I see!" Long Tianxing felt fortunate that they had gotten to know the people of the Sea People Tribe and learned this secret; otherwise, eating the Fire Dragon Fruit directly would not only have prevented their breakthrough but also have posed a danger.

"What is this white dipping sauce?" Qiao Jiaxi asked from the side.

"That's the sap from the Fire Dragon Fruit Tree," the girl said, pointing at the Thousand-Year Fire Dragon Fruit Tree scaling the rocky wall.

"Oh, I see!" Huo Yunjie and the others finally understood.

It seemed that after they returned, they could plant the Fire Dragon Fruit Tree from the five Fire Dragon Fruit seeds stored in their storage rings; by doing this, they could rely on the tree's sap combined with the Fire Dragon Fruit to stabilize the flame and avoid fiery bursts.

Soon, the large fish were roasted.

Huo Yunjie and the others ate the pieces of Fire Dragon Fruit and the fragrant roasted fish, finding the local delicacies both unique and delicious.

"Jump up!"

At this moment, the Chief of the Sea People Tribe invited everyone to gather around the bonfire and start the Clapping Dance.

The young girl of the Sea People Tribe flashed a sweet smile at Huo Yunjie, extending her hand with an invitation to join the dance.

"Let's dance as well; as long as we don't feel embarrassed, the embarrassed ones will be others," said Huo Yunjie, covering his face with his hand and reluctantly joining the dancing group.

Before long, half a day had passed.

After eating their fill, the three had received many gifts from the Sea People Tribe and were then warmly escorted through the passage on the rocky wall.

An hour later.

The three finally reached the surface.

Breathing in the rich natural spiritual energy and the familiar air around them, the three lay on the grassy ground, patting their bellies which were filled to the brim.

"I'm so full!"

Long Tianxing rubbed his temples and found that after eating too much of the thousand-year Fire Dragon Fruit, he felt a hot surge throughout his body, giving him the sensation that he was ready to break through to the Element Gathering Realm.

"Junior Brother Long, are you about to break through?" Huo Yunjie frowned.

This moment didn't seem like the most appropriate time for a breakthrough.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I can still hold on. Let's head back to the sect first. I feel that attempting the breakthrough next to the Spiritual Spring will increase my chances of success by ten percent," said Long Tianxing as he entered the Dragon Transformation Form, ready to depart.

"Senior Brother, let me carry you!"

The voice of Qiao Jiaxi rang out.

He took a horse stance, clenched his fists tightly, and amidst a roar, he activated a powerful aura more than ten times greater. His hair stood on end as he radiated golden light. He lifted Long Tianxing with one hand and soared into the sky.

Whoosh!

Huo Yunjie also followed by sword flight.

Watching Qiao Jiaxi rapidly flying, Huo Yunjie found it very astonishing, saying, "Jia Xi, you can actually fly now, that's still so strange to me!"

"Haha, I didn't know before that I could fly by relying on more than tenfold my aura, and it seems my speed is quite fast, too," he said, accelerating.

The three of them, each flashing with their own escaping lights, made their way to the Misty Sect as quickly as possible.

Behind the scenes.

Ye Feng looked at the three disciples who had returned and then at the newly built grand halls on the ruins of Shuiyang City, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction.

"The disciples are all diligently cultivating, and the affairs of the sect are developing swiftly. Very good!"

Ye Feng lay on a chair, envisioning the future.

...

Thousands of miles away from Misty Sect.

There lies a sprawling city that stretches over a thousand miles, containing numerous micro, small, and medium-sized spiritual veins, brimming with nature's spiritual energy.

At the heart of the city is an astonishing large spiritual vein. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

This place is the capital of the Mystique Kingdom!

Mystique Capital!

That is the full name of the capital, but most people simply call it "Royal Capital" or just "Capital."

At this moment, Xu Huamao kneeled before an ancient pagoda, respectfully reporting what he had seen and heard in County King City.

"Oh, you're saying that Hu Feifei, the protector of Misty Sect, actually possesses strength infinitely close to the Divine Origin Realm?"

A robust voice descended from the tower.

"Yes," Xu Huamao hurriedly nodded.

"Based on what you've said, the power of that blow unleashed by the lady at the end has already reached the level of a Great Power. You simply couldn't perceive it."

Another voice, slightly chilly, came from within the tower.

Xu Huamao was startled.

According to these two ancestors, had Hu Feifei not already reached the level of the Divine Origin Realm?

No wonder he was completely powerless to resist and was suppressed.

Then, a third elderly and hoarse voice spoke up, "For now, let's not concern ourselves with this matter. What's most important is to wait."

"Wait?" Xu Huamao was confused.

The Xu Family was one of the top-tier families in the capital, with three Divine Origin Realm Great Powers standing guard, the strongest of whom was the one with the elderly voice, capable of suppressing ordinary Divine Origin Realm with just one hand.

With the other two ancestors, they should be able to sweep through Misty Sect, yet why did they seem somewhat wary of Hu Feifei?

"Hmph, do you think we are afraid?" that rough voice sneered, having already seen through Xu Huamao's thoughts.

"The younger generation wouldn't dare!" Xu Huamao quickly pressed his forehead to the ground.

"We are waiting for a celestial upheaval."

The old voice spoke again, "The elevation of the royal ancestor to the Void Break Realm is a certainty. Shortly, a celestial upheaval will arrive. At this time, within the range of Mystique Kingdom, all of those in the Divine Origin Realm are in seclusion, including those at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm, who are also continuously enhancing themselves, all for the waiting of that upheaval."

Hearing this, Xu Huamao understood.

"The younger generation understands. The three ancestors intend to wait until after the celestial upheaval, when our cultivation and strength have greatly increased and our positions have been solidified, before dealing with Misty Sect."

With this, Xu Huamao was overjoyed in his heart.

Just a little longer, and he would be able to personally confront Misty Sect to reclaim his pride.

"Well, you may withdraw!"

The elderly voice seemed a bit impatient, "Also, with the celestial upheaval approaching, you are already half step into becoming a Great Venerable. Prepare well, you might get an opportunity to make a breakthrough."

"This junior will make every effort, thank you for the guidance, ancestor."

Xu Huamao quickly left.

After he had gone, whispers of conversation among the three Divine Origin Realm Great Powers coursed through the pagoda.

"With the birth of the Void Break Realm and the descent of an Ancient Saint, during the celestial upheaval, we too may hitch a ride on this event, possibly breaking through one or two minor realms."

"Indeed, such an opportunity is rare in a lifetime, our luck is truly exceptional."

"Heaven favors our Xu Family!"

...

Misty Sect.

Huo Yunjie, Long Tianxing, and Qiao Jiaxi set foot on the long-missed peak of Misty Peak, feeling the warm sensation of coming home.
