Deep within the Mixed Cave, that voice is high-pitched and urgent, revealing an excitement that cannot be suppressed.

The Void Emperor's expression changes unpredictably.

The Saints behind him also sense the anomaly, their expressions turning grave.

"Void Emperor, what do you say? Enter or not?" Nine Mountains said coldly, his eyes filled with hostility.

In recent years, they had besieged and slaughtered some disciples of the Transcendence Gates outside and also encountered counterattacks. The Saints who made it this far have all fought their way through.

The Void Emperor took a deep breath and said, "Cangqing was very much against my coming here. His intuition has always been stronger than mine. Whenever we disagreed, most of the time it was proven he was right."

Nine Mountains frowned, just about to say something, when Shouzhen spoke up: "We don't necessarily have to go in; we can lure people here to scout for us."

Nine Mountains' eyebrows moved, was this to set a trap here, to divert the attention of those Gates and lure them in? 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

The Void Emperor stared into the depths of the Mixed Cave, his eyes dark, and softly said, "Gentlemen, I dare not lead you to gamble together."

The Saints gradually nodded, accepting Shouzhen's proposal.

From the depths of the Mixed Cave, the same excited invitation from the True Saint continued to echo, with golden light everywhere, and jade towers and palaces swaying in the glow, within which vague figures of gods could be glimpsed walking...

The Saints increasingly felt the strangeness; though it was a divine scene, it brought about a chilling sensation, indescribable and unspeakable.

"Spread the news, just say... a lost Great Dao Ancestral Land has appeared, to attract attention from all sides, I don't believe those families wouldn't be interested."

The Void Emperor made the final decision.

"Right, select some people to return to the Netherworld to guard; the pressure there is too great."

Shouzhen spoke up: "I'll return for a trip then."

The Void Emperor looked at Shouzhen, meaningfully saying, "Taoist Friend, your ambition is great, but the merger of two bodies may not necessarily be the path to Transcendence."

Shouzhen said indifferently, "It's just about dying for the Tao."

The Void Emperor said no more, turning to look at the Saints:

"Take action, the Void Realm has already taken much of the attention of many Gates, this territory should be no exception. With the right setup, it might cause those four families to suffer heavy losses!"

...

...

The Heavenly Venerate, was earliest heralded as the Venerable of Heaven, Earth, and the Cosmos.

It is the beginning of the Eight Realms, and the starting point of the immortal and indestructible.

The evolution of the True Path allows them to become the sacred avatars of the Dao on different planes.

In ordinary realms, a Heavenly Venerate can stride unchallenged in the world, transcend fate, and initially interfere with the weaker Time Rivers.

Even in realms like the Netherworld, looking at the Sea of Realms, all are taboo places, second only to a few Great Dao Ancestral Lands, making it impossible for even True Saints to run rampant.

At the level of Dao Ancestor, one has reached the end of the Great Dao, the True Path nurtured to the point of no further advancement, hence being called Ancestral, also the Master, the Master of the Great Dao, pursuing the Dao Fruit's nascent form.

Reaching this level of Dao comprehension, the next step would be to become a Great Dao Ancestor, so there is no road forward.

In the earliest times, the Dao Ancestor was the peak of the Eight Realms.

And like at this moment, such a scene of several Dao Ancestors visiting a newly risen Heavenly Venerate in person is rarely seen in the world.

At this point, let alone one realm higher, a slight advantage is significant.

Yet at this moment, these Dao Ancestors are all smiles and proactive, creating an atmosphere of "guests and hosts enjoying themselves together."

"So it's a favored disciple of Ancestor Ning from the Primordial Palace! I am Heavenly Sound, from the Duobao Pavilion."

"I am Yuan Ying, I was just saying, how could a strong person like Taoist Friend Ji be unknown? Turns out we're both Transcendence disciples. Speaking of which, my Eternal Pavilion once hosted Ancestor Ning back in the day, we should indeed get to know each other better."

A dignified female Taoist smiled, divine light shining behind her, sacred and transcendent.

These few were the ones who had witnessed Taoist Friend Luo from the Star Alliance being pursued by Heavenly Thunder, and were the first to detect the anomaly in the starry sky, following it here.

After witnessing Ji Jingqiu's astonishing phenomena upon Enlightenment, they had the mind to actively befriend him, and coincidentally, Ji Jingqiu also had the intention to connect and leverage, making the atmosphere quite harmonious.

"I am Po Xu, may I ask Ji, how did you achieve Enlightenment?"

"I first achieved Enlightenment through Karma," saying this, Ji Jingqiu's words changed appropriately, solemnly, "To not hide it from everyone, after my breakthrough, the Dao was in resonance, the Karma Net trembled, sensing someone secretly plotting against the entire Void Realm!"

The three people's gazes differed, they all thought it somewhat laughable—who would dare covet this Void Realm? But after all, it was Ji Jingqiu's words, so they still listened with patience.

The next two words made their expressions turn serious.

"[This Shore], this name should not be unfamiliar to you."

Through the previous conversation with Shou Ji, Ji Jingqiu could clearly sense that the forces led by the Pantheon were quite unkind towards [This Shore].

Sure enough.

The female Taoist with the title Yuan Ying, after hearing the name [This Shore], her gaze suddenly turned sharp.

And the man named Po Xu even had his expression sink, snorting coldly:

"So it's them, no wonder, the Ancestors are about to return, there's nothing in this world they're afraid to do, this is their last revelry."

Yuan Ying's eyes flickered as she said: "The Primordial Palace has been reclusive for too long, you probably aren't aware of how far [This Shore] has come, are you?"

Ji Jingqiu said: "There were two clashes before, and now I've heard a bit."

Yuan Ying whispered:

"The power of [This Shore] is vast, spanning a third of the known Sea of Realms, and has already become a behemoth, with no fewer than three Invincibles, these three still possess half-step Transcendence strength even outside the Harmonization Realm."

"In recent years, if it weren't for the Pantheon holding the frontline, who knows how many Gates could only helplessly live in seclusion, or be annexed and wiped out by them!"
