Chapter 286: Chapter 144: Take the Person Away!
“The Qinghu were all absorbed?”
The others couldn’t speak another word.
Qinghu, creatures derived from the Heaven Mandate Domain, each possessed the Strength of the Galaxy Realm pinnacle or double pinnacle, which already posed great difficulty for them to face off against, let alone defeat. Yet this fellow, merely through practice, treated them as Heavenly Mandate Vitality and devoured them…
If this continued, the entire divine realm might truly collapse.
“If it really collapses, the clan head of the Fu Family will certainly rage. Yiyi, we must quickly think of a way to stop this…” Shen Wujun hurriedly began, but before he could finish, he saw Fu Yiyi looking towards the youth inside the cave with eyes full of admiration.
“To be able to absorb the Heaven Mandate Domain to the point of collapse during practice… That’s impressive, no wonder he’s the man I like!”
Fu Jingjing also looked on with star-struck eyes: “He looks handsome no matter what. How could I not have noticed before?”
Fu Qingqing: “Yes, I even mocked him before. Brother Zhang Xuan, you’re not angry, are you?”
“…” Shen Wujun wanted to cry.
The Heaven Mandate Domain might collapse at any moment because of absorption, and you’re not concerned, but rather worshipping a man like lovesick fools…
What a calamity!
In Zouyi City, at the Fu Family residence.
The elderly Hu Qing, the clan head, lay quietly in front of the Ten Thousand Fox Well. Although her body was so weak that walking was difficult, her eyes shone with intense excitement.
She had thought that after leaving Qingqiu Mountain, coupled with her lack of high-class understanding of the fragments of the heavens, their branch of the family wouldn’t last long before being forgotten in the annals of history. She never dreamed they would witness the emergence of a Super Genius!
The Fox Charm Destiny’s Supreme Secret Technique… Something even she had never dared to dream of in her youth. Once found, the entire Qingqiu Mountain would revere it, treating it as the greatest treasure.
“This is just my speculation, to confirm it we still need to pass the assessment of the Ten Thousand Fox Well!”
With a slight smile, her gaze fell on the well’s mouth, revealing anticipation.
“Clan head, the assessment of the Ten Thousand Fox Well… Is it just about finding Landing Pearls and fighting off Qinghu? What are the conditions to pass and leave?”
The clan head couldn’t help but look over.
Despite being the head of the family, she didn’t know all the details of the Ten Thousand Fox Well, just some methods of fighting the Qinghu and harvesting Landing Pearls.
“Of course not!”
The elder shook her head: “The Qinghu are the physical manifestation of the energy of the Ten Thousand Fox Well. As long as the energy exists, they can never be completely eradicated! Landing Pearls are the ancestors’ epiphany about the Fox Charm Destiny. Those who cannot comprehend will fail at harvesting, merely wasting their strength. After burrowing into the ground, they will emerge in another place…”
The clan head was stunned, her expression changing: “Never-ending and constantly reborn, does that mean the power inside the Ten Thousand Fox Well can always maintain balance, endless?”
Endless energy, countless Qinghu. In this way, passing the assessment would become impossible!
With human strength finite and the path unending, how could one continue?
The elder nodded: “Yes, the Ten Thousand Fox Well is a weakened version of the Heaven Mandate Domain. Although it’s not quite as formidable as the real one, it is its own world. To pass, one must not simply kill all Qinghu or harvest all the Landing Pearls. Instead, one must comprehend the Soul Quintessence within, understand the fragments of the heavens there, and gain the ancestors’ approval!”
“Gaining the approval of ancestors?” The clan head looked helpless.
The elder had the highest talent and strength for many years, and even she did not receive approval when she entered the Ten Thousand Fox Well—all the more reason to doubt the younger generation could.
“You think it’s impossible?” Seeing her expression, the elder said with a smile.
“Yes!” The clan head did not hide her feelings, nodding.
The elder spoke: “I too thought it unlikely before, but this time… To gain ancestral approval, one must first have talent and then stamina and endurance. As long as one can withstand the antics and assaults of the Qinghu, and the immense pressure left by the ancestors, it’s not necessarily impossible!”
“Both are too difficult! Especially the ancestors’ pressure… I’ve experienced it before, forget them, even I can hardly endure it nowadays,” the clan head said with a bitter smile.
“That is true…”
The elder nodded: “But our goal isn’t to make them pass the assessment, just to last a long time, kill a great number of Qinghu, and harvest a lot of Landing Pearls! Don’t worry, I have communicated with the residual intend of the ancestors, she will be merciful…”
Before she finished speaking, the Ten Thousand Fox Well suddenly started shining with a blinding light and trembled unstoppably.
“What’s happening?”
The elder was startled and quickly looked over.
The normally calm and stable Ten Thousand Fox Well now shook and convulsed, its light twisting and the sound of the deep well roaring.
“Is the ancestor imposing pressure, starting the final assessment? How long has it been…” the clan head said in disbelief.
Such a phenomenon only occurred when the ancestor imposed pressure for the final assessment. But… these people had not been inside for even two hours, having encountered only a wave or two of Qinghu. The final assessment should take four to five hours, even up to seven or eight hours.
“Could it be… the ancestor is displeased with them and wishes to punish?” She contracted her pupils, as the idea came to mind.
If that were the case, the situation would be perilous.
“It’s possible, how could this happen?” Panic also flashed in the elder’s eyes.
Didn’t Fu Yingying comprehend the Supreme Secret Technique? Why would the ancestor grow angry? Could it be her own discernment was lacking, and she saw wrongly?
“Quickly infuse Strength to calm the ancestor’s emotions…”
The elder could no longer hold back, hastily stood up, grabbed her walking stick, and thrust it forward. A powerful force surged rapidly towards the Ten Thousand Fox Well, and the clan head, not daring to hesitate, also channeled her strength into the well.
In an instant, both felt as if the Ten Thousand Fox Well were a bottomless abyss, not only consuming their Strength but also almost overwhelming them, threatening to drag them down at any moment.
“Quickly activate the formation to draw in the surrounding Origin qi…”
Knowing that they would be drained dry if this continued, the elder couldn’t help but shout out.
“Okay!”
The clan head flicked a finger, striking formation flags in the distance. Mist rose as the surrounding Origin qi was sucked in by the spinning formation and pumped into the Ten Thousand Fox Well.
With so much Origin qi entering, the shaking of the Ten Thousand Fox Well finally settled.
The elder and the clan head released their palms, realizing that their Strength had nearly been halved in just a short amount of time…
How terrifying!
“How furious must the ancestor be?”
Glancing at each other, both had the same thought, filled with astonishment.
Only if the ancestor was completely enraged would this happen, right?
Hum~~
Before the thought ended, the Ten Thousand Fox Well began to shake again.
“Elder, what now? This formation is the Fu Family’s greatest Gathering Array. If it’s not enough, I fear continuing like this will kill them all inside…” The clan head said anxiously.
“I know!”
The elder was aware of the severity and after thinking briefly, she bit her teeth: “I don’t know what happened to enrage our forebear so, but this Heaven Mandate Domain was left by my mother. I’ll try to communicate, see if I can save those youngsters!”
“Good!” Hearing her say this, the clan head breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing time was critical, the elder did not delay, bit her tongue to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, and in the next moment, the blood spread towards the well’s mouth. At the same time, she started chanting: “Mother, I am Qing’er. The younger generation has failed and angered you. Please show mercy…”
Hum!
The mouth of the well flickered with light, and a screen suddenly appeared.
Knowing this was the manifestation of the ancestor’s intend, it would reveal the reason for the anger, guiding her to resolve the issues.
The elder darted her eyes to it.
And soon saw a line of words slowly emerging on top of the screen: I was wrong, please take them away…
“???”
Stunned, the elder and the clan head stood frozen.
