Chapter 478: Chapter 23, Secrets (Third Update)
Was the difference between the upper five and the lower four?
Ye Sheng was very curious.
Qin II told ye Sheng, “The lower four chose to combine with outsiders in their early years, diluting their bloodline and being belittled by the upper five. They couldn’t stand each other, so they separated. That’s why they formed this situation.”
Ye Sheng listened quietly.
The eldest sister also sighed and said, “The immortal clansmen of the lower four bloodlines don’t have too many concerns about combining with outsiders. In this generation, the lower four bloodlines have long been unworthy of their name. Many of the people of the lower four bloodlines have already spread out and developed their own family forces in various places. They scattered and forgot about the glory of their ancestors. My mother was a saintess back then, but she only managed a small village with a population of less than a hundred. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been deceived by ye Hong with just a few words.”
Ye Sheng suddenly understood. So that was how it was.
“Then the upper five factions have always maintained the integrity of their bloodline. How many people are there now?”Ye Sheng was very curious.
The big sister sneered, she said, “The upper five factions have always been unwilling to unite with outsiders and dilute their bloodline. Therefore, they have always lived in seclusion and appeared to be independent from the world. They think that the lower four factions have tarnished the reputation of the Changsheng tribe. However, because they are self-proclaimed, there are less than a hundred people in the entire upper five factions.”
Ye Sheng fell silent. There were less than a hundred people in the upper five lineages. Even if these one hundred people were all at the emptiness realm, they could only be considered as a top faction. It would be a little difficult for them to become the top faction in the Central Plains. This was because there were not many of them in the various major factions, there were still around ten emptiness realm experts. The only difference was that their realms were different.
This was a difficult choice. The upper five lineages knew that if they did not unite with outsiders, in the long run, the Changsheng tribe would definitely decline and become a cloud in the long river of history.
As for the lower four lineages, in order to maintain the prosperity of their clansmen, they would gradually dilute their bloodline by uniting with outsiders. After a few generations, the longevity tribe would no longer exist.
“If someone had united the longevity tribe a long time ago and vigorously developed the tribe, they would not have ended up in this state.”Ye Sheng sighed. Regardless of whether it was the upper five lineages or the lower four lineages, the choice was wrong, the final result was to lead the members of the immortal clan to the edge of extinction.
“So now, the people of the upper five branches are anxious. They urgently want to open the Pure Land, obtain the power or treasures inside, and reproduce the clan. They have five keys in their hands. Once they add in Liu Ruyan’s one, they have six keys. We have three here. We have all nine keys.”Qin Ershi said in a deep voice.
Five keys from the upper five veins and four keys from the lower four veins. Together, there were nine keys.
The key in Ye Sheng’s hand belonged to senior Xu. She was also from the lower four veins. Big Sister’s mother was a saintess and also from the same vein. When Qin I first obtained the key from the same vein, he passed it to Qin Ershi, in addition to the one in ye Hong’s hand, it had now fallen into Liu Ruyan’s hands. There were four keys in total.
Ye Sheng understood in his heart. The whereabouts of the nine keys were all clear. The three keys on their side were no match for the six keys on the other side.
Therefore, they had to participate in it. Otherwise, if the six keys were to be gathered together, it would be very passive on their side.
If they were really sucked over, then Ye Sheng and the others would have nothing to gain.
Moreover, Ye Sheng also had to go and see Granny Long of the upper five factions and hand over the wine master’s letter to her.
This was what Ye Sheng had promised the wine master. He had to do it.
“Ye Sheng, go to the bank of the Yellow River first and look for the people of the upper five factions. I will give you their address. With your current cultivation level, no one dares to touch you. Your big sister and I will be there soon,”Qin Ershi said after thinking for a while.
“Okay.”Ye Sheng nodded and agreed with this idea.
Ye Sheng also had the same idea. He could freely enter and leave any place in this world. He didn’t need to worry about his own safety. No one could restrict him.
“Twelfth brother, when you go, investigate who is allied with Liu Ru from the upper five factions. Although there are less than a hundred people left from the upper five factions, they are not united. If they were united, they wouldn’t have opened the Pure Land after guarding it for so long,”the big sister told Ye Sheng.
Ye Sheng nodded and stood up. “I’ll go take a look in the next few days. Take care, Big Sis.”
..
After exiting the palace, Ye Sheng left alone. He walked slowly under the moonlight.
His figure was tall and slender, and his steps were leisurely. Under the moonlight, his shadow was long and swaying.
Ye Sheng was thinking about what exactly was in this so-called pure land.
Ye Hong wanted it, and so did Liu Ruyan. Even now, Ye Sheng was suspecting if ye Hong wanted it, and if it was the intention of the Void Demon.
Ye Hong’s rise all the way from a village child to the number one expert in the world was led by this void demon. Back then, ye Hong had sneaked into the Pure Land, and although he was treated as a stowaway and failed.., ye Hong still gained a lot.
All of this puzzled ye Sheng.
What exactly was this pure land?
“It seems that this secret can only be found out by going to the riverside and asking the people of the upper five factions.”Ye Sheng sighed and returned to the manor.
In the brightly lit manor, senior Xu and the totem inheritor were sitting with Beauty Zhou. As senior Xu was a woman, he was chatting and laughing with Beauty Zhou. They had a harmonious relationship.
The totem inheritor was drinking alone, eating food, and looking at the moonlight, feeling at ease.
Ye Sheng walked over and sat opposite the totem inheritor. He filled his glass and drank a toast.
“What did the Great Qin’s Emperor Say?”The totem inheritor asked.
Senior Xu and Beauty Zhou looked over.
Ye Sheng told them everything that had happened just now.
After senior Xu heard it, he was silent for a while and said, “I see. I was wondering why I kept listening to the elders talk about how powerful the longevity clansmen are, but in our generation, even a general from the Dragon dynasty couldn’t resist them.”
“You’ve mingled with outsiders for too long, and many of your bloodlines have been diluted,”ye Sheng said faintly.
Senior XU nodded and said, “That’s true. So, your next step is to go to the bank of the Great River?”
The bank of the Great River was also known as the bank of the Yellow River. This was because tens of thousands of years ago, the Yellow River wasn’t called the Yellow River, but the great river.
It was only because the water of the great river poured too much mud and sand into it that it became the Yellow River.
“I’ll go first and check the situation. You guys return to Tianshan and see if the others have broken through the 12th level. Although there are less than a hundred people in the upper five meridians, all of them are at the emptiness realm. Without a strong group strength, it’s impossible for one person to hold on,”Ye Sheng said after thinking for a while, “Yes.”.
He was indeed very powerful. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to fight against five people by himself.
But what about fighting against ten people by himself?
The wheel, the Sea of people, these ye Shengs would not be able to hold on unless he broke through a few more times.
But it was obvious that Liu Ru did not want to give ye Sheng time to break through. That was why she was so anxious to open the Pure Land.
