Chapter 708 - 702: Daoist Ancestor’s Brow Bone

As Yin Celestial Son’s voice fell, his eyes gleamed while looking at the Grand Elder of the Void Race.

Thus, someone who can resolutely sacrifice their own life for the continuation of their race,

is, in any case, commendable.

Though Yin Celestial Son could not personally help the Grand Elder of the Void Race in repelling enemies,

he could offer assistance in other ways.

The reason Yin Celestial Son asked so earnestly is because this battle would be the Grand Elder of the Void Race’s final battle, where he would sacrifice himself for the continuation of his race.

Old and wise, the Grand Elder of the Void Race has lived for countless years, naturally becoming extremely astute.

From Yin Celestial Son’s inquiry, the Grand Elder of the Void Race discerned a hint of hope.

Yin Celestial Son can offer him assistance.

"I’ve lived countless years, long since wearied of life!"

"To do something for my race is my utmost desire!" The Grand Elder of the Void Race responded firmly.

A trace of admiration flickered in Yin Celestial Son’s eyes.

Although the intention was to use the Void Race to maximally deplete the powers of Demon Lord, Buddha, and Wa Huang, Yin Celestial Son’s respect was genuine.

"This item is for you; it should aid you!" Yin Celestial Son tossed a small, pinky-sized white bone to the Grand Elder of the Void Race, and then his spectral figure began to fade.

Instinctively, the Grand Elder of the Void Race caught the piece of white bone, stunned where he stood.

From this bone, he felt a sense of a common origin.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race could be seen as a replica of Daoist Ancestor, and he felt a sense of kindred origin from this piece of bone.

Who the owner of this bone was, was evident.

Undoubtedly, this piece of bone belonged to one of the Four Great Primordial Spirits, the Daoist Ancestor.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race held this piece of bone, examining it closely: "The bone at the forehead, the forehead is where the spirit resides, this is the most spiritual forehead bone."

"The Daoist Ancestor’s forehead bone?"

"This time, the alliance was made of Demon Lord, Buddha, and Wa Huang, without Daoist Ancestor."

"Could it be, Daoist Ancestor has reincarnated?"

The Grand Elder of the Void Race seemed to think of something inconceivable, loudly asking: "Lord Yin Celestial Son, has Daoist Ancestor reincarnated?"

Distracted by his thoughts, the Grand Elder of the Void Race did not notice that Yin Celestial Son had just departed.

He looked up towards where Yin Celestial Son had been, only to find an empty space.

The news of Daoist Ancestor’s reincarnation was concealed deeply, even Demon Lord and Buddha were unaware.

It was Wa Huang who informed them about Daoist Ancestor’s reincarnation and rebirth.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race naturally knew even less.

Earlier, he merely believed Daoist Ancestor to be transcendental and unsociable, unwilling to intervene against their Void Race.

Yet upon seeing Daoist Ancestor’s forehead bone, the Grand Elder of the Void Race finally realized this truth.

Unfortunately, Yin Celestial Son had already departed, unable to provide an accurate answer.

However, whether answered or not, it’s actually unimportant now.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race can almost certainly affirm that Daoist Ancestor indeed reincarnated.

If Daoist Ancestor hadn’t reincarnated, who could have the ability to forcibly extract his forehead bone while alive?

The use of this forehead bone, for the Grand Elder of the Void Race, is immeasurably beneficial.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race is himself a replica of Daoist Ancestor.

With this forehead bone, his strength will greatly increase.

Now, he’s no longer a mere bait.

He’s a torpedo.

When the schools of fish gather around, he’ll self-destruct and surely inflict heavy losses on them.

Who are the schools of fish?

Naturally, they are the disciples of Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha.

This ruthless tactic might cause Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha’s disciples to be gravely wounded or killed in large numbers.

...

...

In the Underworld.

Yin Celestial Son’s true form was drinking tea with Yang Jing.

"Fellow Daoist, you’ve caused me great distress!"

"From now on, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha will surely bear grudges against me!" Yang Jing drank a cup of tea with resignation.

As the reincarnated form of Daoist Ancestor, Yang Jing could naturally stand on equal footing with Yin Celestial Son, addressing each other as fellow Daoists.

The forehead bone belonging to the former Daoist Ancestor was asked from Yang Jing by Yin Celestial Son.

This essentially meant Yang Jing was assisting Yin Celestial Son in combating Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha.

Although Yang Jing understood that giving this forehead bone to the Grand Elder of the Void Race signified his formal alignment,

he still did so, demonstrating that Yang Jing was not someone whose heart belonged solely to the Void.

He had completely shed the identity of Daoist Ancestor; he was now Yang Jing.

Being Yang Jing, naturally, he must assist his own people.

"Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken; you are human, naturally destined to help on our side!"

"The conflict between Heaven and Void is irreconcilable; it’s either Heaven devours Void or Void devours Heaven."

"If you don’t act, could Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha possibly not hold grudges against you?" Yin Celestial Son said slowly.

Yin Celestial Son’s words were indeed reasonable.

He is now not Daoist Ancestor; he is Yang Jing.

Being Yang Jing, his interests naturally contradict those of Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha.

Therefore, confrontation is inevitable.

"Enough!"

"Enough!" Yang Jing sighed repeatedly, resignedly saying: "When I chose to reincarnate and be reborn as a human, everything was already predestined."

"The one who had connections with Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha was one of the Four Great Primordial Spirits, Daoist Ancestor, not me, Yang Jing."

Yang Jing’s words greatly pleased Yin Celestial Son.

Yang Jing was not caught up in his past but was looking forward to the future.

This kind of Yang Jing is truly a part of the community with shared interests.

"Fellow Daoist, with the power of your forehead bone, to what extent can the Grand Elder of the Void Race enhance his strength?" Yin Celestial Son asked.

The Grand Elder of the Void Race didn’t fully comprehend Daoist Ancestor’s power, yet even so, he was exceptional among Tier One.

Without obtaining the Daoist Ancestor’s forehead bone, the Grand Elder of the Void Race should be stronger than the Peacock Great Ming King, but weaker than Xi Huang.

It should be known, Xi Huang is much stronger than the Peacock Great Ming King.

Back then, Xi Huang casually struck and easily trapped the Peacock Great Ming King.

Previously, when planning to annihilate the Void Race with a trilateral alliance, Buddha specifically suggested that Xi Huang should deal with the Grand Elder of the Void Race.

Unfortunately, Wa Huang refused the offer.

Thus, evidently, the Grand Elder of the Void Race was inferior to Xi Huang before.

But now?

With the Daoist Ancestor’s forehead bone, how formidable will the Grand Elder of the Void Race become?

After hearing Yin Celestial Son’s question, Yang Jing pondered briefly and replied: "The top of Tier One?"

The top of Tier One?

Who was previously at the top of Tier One?

It should be Lin Yuan and Xi Huang.

Lin Yuan was the top of Tier One under Heaven.

While Xi Huang was the top of Tier One in the Void.

Now, there is another top contender under the Void.
