Chapter 665: Chapter 651: Great Honor, Elder Mo, Edge Wilderness Bottom Hidden!_1

The mighty warriors of the Hundred Clans Battlefield have returned, they are the guards of the Border Wasteland!

From the dialogues of Elder Ming He and Elder Shi, Xiao Chen finally had some comprehension of the depth of the Border Wasteland Region. The Ancestral Court of the Border Wasteland Region has stood upon this land for countless decades. Although the land continued to experience catastrophes and bloodshed, the human tribe persevered and gave birth to new generations, always leaving behind some of the strong ones to thrive.

"Though the Human War Tribe in our Border Wasteland Region has unfortunately been struck by an enemy tribe these past two months, we humans have exterminated a vast majority of this enemy tribe in the Border Wasteland. Now, if they wish to create another storm, they need time to gather their strength. However, not wanting us humans to catch up, they will disturb the peace. Following this, safeguarding the earth and preparing for warfare are our priorities. But before that, we must thoroughly slaughter the Wolf Demon!"

Venerable Minghe’s eyes revealed a strong killing intent. In the Border Wasteland Region, the Demon Wolf Tribe had always been a constant hazard. Even in this rebellion of the enemy tribe, the Wolf Demons had been the main force. Now, with a golden opportunity in front of them, how could they let it pass?

"Let’s go. Elder Shi has roused a sleeping powerful figure from our Ancestral Court. This time, my command is to join you and make the Wolf Ancestor of the Blood Moon pay its price!"

Moments later, Venerable Minghe stood up and walked out of the Great Hall, followed closely by Xiao Chen.

After an hour, they were at the top of the Sacred Fire Shrine.

"Salutations, Elder Mo!"

The Grand Elder of the Ancestral Court, Ming He, respectfully bowed to an elderly figure in front of him who was clad in black beast skins.

"We need Elder Mo’s help to round up the Wolf Demon this time!"

The man known as Elder Mo, despite his white hair, frail figure, and a face full of wrinkles, exuded an aura of decay, was so respected by the Grand Elder of the Ancestral Court, Ming He. His identity could be guessed, he was one of the hidden powerful figures lurking in the Ancestral Court.

Elder Mo carelessly waved his hand, his beard fluttering slightly. "The old Wolf of the Blood Moon. When the last Leader of the Court attempted to clear out this beast, I was only at the Venerable Realm. The previous Leader always wished to kill the Wolf Demon. Today, I can finally fulfill his wish."

"Good! Good! Good!"

As his words fell, Elder Mo’s gaze fell on Xiao Chen and he exclaimed three times!

"You must be the young man Elder Shi mentioned, just as Elder Shi has said, you reached the Venerable Realm at the age of thirty. Such talent, even I haven’t heard of such a thing in my time."

"Honors to the senior!" On hearing that Elder Mo was a warrior from the same era as the Wolf Ancestor of the Blood Moon and had lived for thousands of years, Xiao Chen bowed respectfully.

"Senior or not, I’ve only managed to cling on to life for some extra time. This old body of mine has almost rotted away after being buried underground for so long. If I can kill a major enemy for our human clan one more time, it could be considered putting my old age to use!"

After saying this, Elder Mo’s tone of voice changed and he continued, "Only by enduring the ordeals of time can one truly shine with an unparalleled radiance."

Having lived for thousands of years, the elder had witnessed changes throughout the world and seen many genius warriors rise and prosper. But Xiao Chen, who was just thirty and had reached the complete stage of the Venerable Realm, was indeed a rare sight.

However, not all geniuses can prosper. In his thousands of years of life, he had seen many gifted warriors. Although they couldn’t compete with Xiao Chen, they were unparalleled in their domains. Nonetheless, most failed in the end, unable to withstand the erosion of time.

Unparalleled talent also has its moments of exhaustion. There is no eternal peak. Only those who have truly experienced tests, fought their way out, and not given up until the end can be deemed as the undying pride of their race. Those who fall midway could only be annihilated in the long river of the world.

At the top of the Sacred Fire Shrine, apart from Elder Mo, there were four other figures standing, all at the realm of Venerable. Two of them were in the complete stage of the Venerable Realm, like Xiao Chen.

"Shall we awaken the sleeping powerful ones below the Sacred Fire Shrine?"

Elder Shi’s voice echoed once again. The Wolf Ancestor of the Blood Moon had had a notorious reputation in the Border Wasteland many years ago. It wasn’t known how much its power had increased during this period. Moreover, having been able to integrate with the Jian Mu Divine Tree, the Wolf Ancestor must have had some secrets. So, Elder Shi raised this point.

Beneath the Sacred Fire Shrine of the Ancestral Court, there was a secret realm where some warriors from past generations were sleeping. Perhaps their power hadn’t ruled the Great Wasteland, but it definitely wouldn’t be less than that of those beneath the Venerable Realm.

Most of these are warriors whose martial arts potential has been exhausted and who have reached the limit of their own combat power, unable to progress further. Moreover, their lifespan was already diminishing. They had voluntarily sealed their bodies within blood stones, waiting for a future moment when the Border Wasteland Region would face a major crisis. They would then reappear and protect the inheritance of the human tribe in the Border Wasteland Region.

Upon being sealed within special blood stones, a warrior’s bodily functions would be reduced to the minimum, life activities would come to a standstill, slowing down the consumption of life. As a result, they would live longer.

That being said, these warriors sleeping within the secret realm are the true foundation of the Border Wasteland Region. Unless absolutely necessary, they would not be easily awakened. This is because most of their lives have already come to an end. Their purpose of existence is to protect the legacy of the human clan with their last breath during the most critical moments.

Just like this Elder Mo, he is in the same realm of Martial Arts as Venerable Minghe, perhaps even more powerful. He is in the late stage of the Towering Realm Seven Heavenly Layer. However, he is already close to eight thousand years old and his life is nearing its end. His potential has been depleted completely as well.

Elder Shi was the first to leave the ancient Great Hall to awaken Elder Mo from the secret realm. It is even rumored that the most ancient member of the human clan asleep on the Border Wasteland is a Legendary Supreme who survived a massive catastrophe a millennium ago. His existence can be considered the most secretive and forbidden in the Border Wasteland.

"Elder Shi, there is no need. Together with Minghe, we will be enough. Let the sleeping old ones rest for a while. In a few years, even if they want to sleep, it will become a luxury. We, the decrepit ones, have spent a lot of resources just to hang on until today. Isn’t it for the preservation of our human clan’s legacy?"

Elder Mo’s words didn’t reveal much emotion. It seems that they were supposed to be bland, but each sentence was like a giant hammer pounding on everyone’s hearts.

It is clear, despite having just awakened from his sleep, Elder Mo already knew what had happened in the Border Wasteland. He knew about the arrival of the Heavens’ River.

"Moreover, the Wolf Demon has not advanced to the realm of the Supreme of the Towering Eightfold Heavenly Layer. Even if we are defeated, my old bones have had their share of years. It would be an honorable death to die at the hands of the Wolf Demon!

"Elder Mo!"

Everyone was suddenly startled. Clearly, Elder Mo had already made his decision, even if it meant putting his life on the line, he was ready for a fight to the death.

"Don’t say any more. I have lived for nearly eight thousand years. The biggest regret in my life is that I could not participate in the great catastrophe a millennium ago to protect my human clan. I was there for the battlefield against the Wolf Demon, but unfortunately, it escaped. This time, it would be an end to it all. What’s more, I know my own body. My lifespan is coming to an end, with only a dozen wisps of life’s light left. Even without the emergence of the Wolf Demon, sealed in the Blood Stone, I could at most live for another hundred years. Rather than die of old age, why not eliminate a great enemy for our human clan?"

After a moment of silence, Venerable Minghe’s eyes scanned the surroundings. Among them were two supremes who were in the sevenfold heavenly layer of the Towering Realm, and three supremes, including Xiao Chen, who had reached the perfect state of the sixfold heavenly layer of the Towering Realm. As for the remaining two supremes, they also had cultivation bases at the late stage of the sixfold heavenly layer of the Towering Realm. This constituted the forces that the urgently gathered Ancestral Court had to fight the old Wolf Demon.

At this moment, the top of the Sacred Fire Shrine was filled with a heavy atmosphere. Even Xiao Chen’s heart had a hint of Fighting Will.

"Everyone, we will work together this time to exterminate this malignant tumor in the Border Wasteland. To battle!"

Rumble!

The next moment, the void twisted, revealing a ferocious green horn at the top of the Sacred Fire Shrine. The bow was ten zhang high and covered in green runes.

The ferocious bow had a dragon-shaped Exotic Beast roaring on it. A large cannon barrel on the deck pointed towards TianQue. This was Venerable Minghe’s Battleship. The last time it flew to the Gu Yuan Tribe to issue the Imperial Command was on this warship.

"Everyone, board the warship!"

Seeing the warship appear from the void, Venerable Minghe shouted loudly.

Swoosh!

Seven figures crossed the void and stepped onto the deck of the warship. Only Elder Shi was left at the top of the tower, his slender figure standing alone.

"I will be waiting for your victorious return in the Ancestral Court!" The old voice resounded, filled with unyielding determination.

Crack!

Soon, space was ripped apart again, forming a massive gap. The green color battleship slowly squeezed in. The dark void world appeared in front of Xiao Chen’s eyes again. Marvelous auroras streaked across the distant sky, but underneath the splendor was endless killing intent. The smallest mistake in the void could lead to one’s demise.

In the center of the Bronze Battleship, there was a mast as tall as a Heavenly Column, stretching tens of feet high. It was covered with various intricate symbols, each emitting a faint spiritual will. It was Venerable Minghe who was controlling the battleship’s progress.

Unlike the Heaven Grade Battleship of the Gu Yuan Tribe, Venerable Minghe’s small Void Battleship did not need any other warriors to operate it. It was filled with endless runic symbols and formations. As long as sufficient energy was infused into it, the battleship could move freely. The person in control only needed to refine the control panel in the battleship, and that tall mast was undoubtedly the control panel of the battleship.

"Clan Leader Xiao, where did you encounter the old Wolf Demon’s attack?"

Xiao Chen informed Venerable Minghe of the location where he was attacked by the Wolf Demon. Suddenly, the massive battleship shuddered violently. The ferocious bow changed direction. Minor ripples appeared in the void, propelling the battleship’s progress.
