Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 870: Sky-reach Nest

"Ancestor!"

The Gold Ghost stood up, speaking with excitement, "I know where Gu Anran is, I’ll lead the way for you!"

"Good!"

The elder in gold nodded.

Just as the two were about to leave the valley, a faint voice suddenly resonated in the surrounding void.

"Ha, unnecessary gesture... I’m already at the old lair of your Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle, do you still need to lead the way?"

This voice was faint, but when it entered the ears, it felt like a thunderous explosion.

The Gold Ghost was instantly shocked, his ears buzzing loudly, his Primordial Spirit in chaos, his body swaying, almost collapsing to the ground.

"That Gu Anran, has she already entered?"

The elder in gold was astonished.

His gaze focused, and he saw a white-clad beautiful maiden in the distant sky, of exceptional temperament, approaching slowly, walking step by step through the void.

"This... Am I seeing things? The Mountain Protection Array wasn’t even disturbed, how did she get in?"

Watching the white-clad maiden approach closer, the Gold Ghost wiped his eyes with disbelief.

"This person’s combat strength... probably already matches that of a True God."

The elder in red furrowed his brows, his body quivering, breaking through the air to face Gu Anran.

What?

Gu Anran’s combat strength, matches that of a True God?

How is that possible?

The Gold Ghost standing on the ground widened his eyes, still pondering the words of the ancestor.

Gu Anran, only at the peak of the Tenth Layer of the Eternal Realm, even possessing three Divine Artifacts, how could she rival a True God?

This is completely unreasonable.

A flash of golden light.

An elder in gold blocked Ye Yun’s path.

"We just met, you are the ancestor of the Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle, aren’t you?"

Ye Yun stopped, holding a sword in his right hand, supporting a mirror with his left.

"Indeed, young girl, you just destroyed my Divine Consciousness Imprint with one sword, of course, I remember you!"

The elder in gold spoke in a deep voice.

Ye Yun sized up the elder in gold, laughed, and said, "Your cultivation base surprises me, having already reached the second level of the True God Realm..."

"Ridiculous!"

The elder in gold snorted coldly, "If not for my impending demise, how would I have fallen to the second level of the True God Realm?"

Ye Yun laughed and asked, "Then what was your original realm?"

The elder in gold, with a face of pride, said, "The fifth layer of the True God Realm!"

"So it was the fifth layer of the True God Realm, how could there be such a powerful demon clan like you on the Cangnan Continent?"

Ye Yun deliberately asked in surprise.

"What do you know? The heritage of my Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle, is not something you could comprehend!"

The elder in gold was furious.

Buzz!

Golden light radiated from his body, like a golden ocean, spreading throughout the void.

The powerful breath of a True God surged in waves, the elder in gold seemed to want to suppress Ye Yun with this powerful aura.

Ye Yun remained unmoved.

He gently rotated the Mirror of Chaos and said indifferently, "The heritage of your Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle is just the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle, what’s so strange about that!"

Upon hearing these words.

The elder in gold’s eyes widened, looking at Ye Yun incredulously.

"How do you know about the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle?"

He shouted loudly.

Ye Yun spread his hands, "Having seen the true form derived from your Divine Consciousness Imprint, how could I not know?"

The elder in gold’s face turned grim.

He never expected that someone could recognize the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle just upon seeing his true form.

The elder in gold’s gaze was like lightning, seemingly seeing through Gu Anran’s true form, he frowned and said, "You this spider spirit, seem to have quite a history... However, why do you look familiar, as if I’ve seen such a black spider somewhere!"

"Have you seen it?"

Ye Yun’s heart moved, he asked.

"In an ancient book, I once saw a spider like you, let me think..."

The elder in gold pondered for a few seconds, then suddenly realized, "You are the Black Ming Divine Spider!"

"As expected of the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle..."

Ye Yun nodded and said.

For the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle from the Divine Land to recognize the Black Ming Divine Spider, Ye Yun was not surprised.

In the distant void.

Hearing the words of the ancestor, the Gold Ghost was greatly shocked.

"Gu Anran wasn’t a Black Ming Spider? How did she become the Black Ming Divine Spider?"

The Gold Ghost muttered to himself.

He was riddled with mysteries, at this moment, the more he couldn’t see through the ancestor and Gu Anran.

Gu Anran said—

The ancestor is the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle, yet the Gold Ghost couldn’t understand one bit.

He couldn’t comprehend why they had to add another character to the three words Gold Devouring Beetle.

The Gold-eating Spirit Beetle...

Could it be the original name of their Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle?

As the Gold Ghost was lost in thoughts, he suddenly heard the angry shout of the ancestor.

"Black Ming Divine Spider, how did you appear on the Cangnan Continent?"

Ye Yun smiled, retorting, "Gold-eating Spirit Beetle, so how did you appear on the Cangnan Continent?"

"I..."

The elder in gold was about to speak, suddenly thought of something, and quickly shut his mouth.

He couldn’t reveal the purpose, no matter what.

Ye Yun reached out, and an immense, invisible force suddenly descended upon the elder in gold.

"Your cultivation base is also at the True God Realm?"

In horror, the elder in gold struggled desperately, finding he couldn’t move at all.

This frightened him out of his wits.

This white-clad maiden wasn’t at the peak of the Tenth Layer of the Eternal Realm, but had an actual high order of True God Realm cultivation base.

Only such a cultivation base could render him helpless in an instant.

"True God Realm?"

"Gu Anran is in the True God Realm?"

"How is that possible?"

In the distance, the Gold Ghost was dumbstruck, his heart pounded uncontrollably in his chest.

At this moment, his pupils dilated, almost scared to death.

Undoubtedly.

The Gold Ghost also saw the ancestor, akin to a god, captured and immobilized in the void by Gu Anran’s single hand.

"Doomed!

Even the ancestor isn’t a match for Gu Anran. Our Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle is likely facing annihilation today!"

Thinking of this, the Gold Ghost looked ashen.

Ye Yun moved his arm, and the elder in gold was pulled close.

"Let me ask you—

Gold-eating Spirit Beetle, where is your real old lair?"

Ye Yun asked indifferently.

"What are you talking about? I don’t understand you, isn’t this place the old lair of my Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle?"

The elder in gold asked in surprise.

"Stop pretending, this is merely a place where your bloodline descendants reside, where exactly is the Clan of Gold-eating Spirit Beetle hiding?"

Ye Yun sneered.

After hearing Ye Yun’s words, the elder in gold was momentarily stunned.

He didn’t expect the secret of the race to be so clearly spoken by this white-clad maiden before him.

"Sir, are you not afraid of making reckless claims about the lair of the Gold-eating Spirit Beetle Clan?"

The elder in gold suddenly laughed coldly.

"I am not afraid of recklessness."

Ye Yun laughed heartily.

He could naturally hear the implication in the elder in gold’s words.

The Gold-eating Spirit Beetle Clan’s nest should be hiding many True God Realm clan members.

This elder in gold thought he was overestimating his abilities, daring to enter the Dragon Pool Tiger’s Den with just a True God-stage cultivation base.

This equates to suicide?

...

"This guy, although he has some foundation, how can it compare to the heritage of my Clan of Gold-eating Spirit Beetle?

Though I’m controlled by him, if I can lure him to the Sky-reach Nest and have the clan members kill him, doesn’t that indirectly mean I contributed three Divine Artifacts?

Thousands of years ago, I was expelled from the race.

Helplessly, I came to this continent, establishing the Clan of Gold Devouring Beetle with my own bloodline. While I’ve lived freely here, I never cease to yearn to return to the Sky-reach Nest..."

In the elder in gold’s mind, various complex thoughts arose.

At this moment.

He finally resolved.

He would break the norm and formally reveal the secret location of the Sky-reach Nest to this white-clad woman.
