Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Beginning

Chapter 500: Chapter 498: The Four Quasi-Supreme Venerables Strike Together; Ah Jiu Stands Forward; The Ancestor Appears (Fifth Update)

Jun Xiaoyao’s voice was calm as water, yet the domineering air within it seemed to decisively rule over the timeless years.

Countless heroes of the past and present amounted to nothing much in Jun Xiaoyao’s eyes.

He alone was enough to suppress eternity, looking down upon countless exceptional figures throughout history!

At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao’s invincible silhouette was deeply imprinted in everyone’s mind.

What is invincibility?

This is invincibility!

”To have a son like Jun Xiaoyao, in this life, the Celestial Mandate rests with him...” a Saint Master from the Demon Immortal Sect mused.

”They say that in a competitive world, Celestial Prides rise like stars, but Jun Family’s Divine Son is the sole bright sun outshining endless stars!” an Elder Su from the Ji Family was also sighing.

Although the Ji Family had unparalleled Celestial Prides like Ji Qingyi and Ji Changkong, there was still a large gap compared to Jun Xiaoyao.

None of the cultivators from various factions attending the coming-of-age ceremony failed to marvel at Jun Xiaoyao’s performance at this moment.

The Jun Clan Elders such as Jun Zhantian smiled broadly, their hearts filled with both joy and pride.

Jun Xiaoyao was the most outstanding pride of their Jun Family!

On the contrary, the four Quasi-Supreme Venerables of the Ancient Royal Families had ugly expressions at this moment.

Venerable Long Kan’s gaze was as dark as water.

Jun Xiaoyao’s strength and talent were so monstrous it filled even a Quasi-Supreme Venerable like him with dread.

Jun Xiaoyao was only eighteen years old.

At eighteen, he had already crossed a Saint Tribulation comparable to the Venerable Tribulation in such a demonic fashion, becoming the youngest Saint in history.

In a few years, wouldn’t he surpass even a Quasi-Supreme like them?

Jun Xiaoyao must die!

This thought crossed Venerable Long Kan’s mind.

If Jun Xiaoyao doesn’t die and walks the Emperor’s Road, growing up, it would herald doom for the Ancient Royal Families.

Let alone an Ancestral Dragon Nest, all other Ancient Royal Families would feel threatened by Jun Xiaoyao.

It must be said, Venerable Long Kan’s premonition was indeed accurate.

When Ancient Cicada of the Celestial Cicada Race had fallen, he also calculated a glimpse of the future, that if Jun Xiaoyao didn’t die, it would usher in a dark era for the Ancient Royal Families.

Upon realizing this, a decisive light flashed in Venerable Long Kan’s eyes.

At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao stood alone amidst the clouds, like an Exiled Immortal descending to the world, surrounded by the blooming Flower of the Great Dao, heavenly petals falling, and golden lotuses emerging from the earth.

”What terrifying phenomena; generally, when Saints cross a Saint Tribulation, it’s impossible to witness such astonishing sights!” some cultivators exclaimed.

Currently encircled by the Flower of the Great Dao, Jun Xiaoyao bore an unparalleled presence, akin to an Emperor’s Son or a True Immortal descending to the mortal realm.

”With a single thought, flowers bloom, Junglin Driz being anew, only I am Carefree!”

Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve, his tone calm yet containing an unparalleled aura of invincibility, dominating the world!

Witnessing this scene, Venerable Long Kan’s eyes surged with killing intent.

He could no longer afford to ignore it; if Jun Xiaoyao lived, it would be a huge disaster for the Ancestral Dragon Nest and the entire Ancient Royal Families.

”Die!”

Venerable Long Kan didn’t hesitate, directly attacking with lightning speed, pointing to kill Jun Xiaoyao.

This scene was too abrupt, catching everyone off guard.

Almost at the same instant of Venerable Long Kan’s attack, the three Quasi-Supreme Venerables from Ten Thousand Phoenix Spirit Mountain, Qilin Ancient Cave, and Ancient Crocodile Lake also acted in unison, killing Jun Xiaoyao.

They tacitly understood that Jun Xiaoyao couldn’t be allowed to live.

To the Jun Family, one Jun Xiaoyao was more important than a hundred Reincarnation Demon Sect’s Treasure Vaults.

And if Jun Xiaoyao were killed, it would undoubtedly cut off the Jun Family’s destiny for ten thousand years.

Even the Jun Family might experience a gap in strong individuals, leading to irreversible decline.

It must be said, no one could have anticipated this; it was too sudden.

To strike and kill the Jun Family’s Divine Son at the Jun Family Mountain Gate, it might even be beyond a madman’s imagination.

But Venerable Long Kan and the four did it anyway.

Four Quasi-Supreme Venerables suddenly struck, and they weren’t far from Jun Xiaoyao.

Thus, their combined attack was almost instantaneous, striking towards Jun Xiaoyao.

Even Jun Xiaoyao paused for a moment, not expecting these four to be reckless to such an extent.

However, Jun Xiaoyao wasn’t at all flustered, not to mention he was now at the Jun Family.

Even if he were elsewhere, it would be impossible for these four Quasi-Supreme Venerables to kill him.

Right now, Jun Xiaoyao had a group of powerful guardians behind him.

Yet, at the moment of crisis, the void ahead of Jun Xiaoyao shattered instantly, and a gray-clad, peerless woman appeared directly out of nowhere.

Her blue hair fluttered in the wind, covering much of her immortal beauty.

Even the exposed half of her face was as clear as snow, stunningly beautiful, dreamlike and fantastical.

It was none other than Jun Xiaoyao’s Guardian, Ah Jiu.

Others might not have anticipated the Quasi-Supreme attack on Jun Xiaoyao.

But Ah Jiu, from the moment Jun Xiaoyao appeared, was already secretly guarding him.

Others might have their attention divided, but Ah Jiu’s full focus was always on Jun Xiaoyao.

Therefore, when the four Quasi-Supreme Venerables attacked, Ah Jiu immediately sensed it and leapt forward.

Ah Jiu activated Heavy Pupils, her gaze awe-inspiring, single-handedly blocking the attack from the four Quasi-Supreme Venerables.

But Ah Jiu herself had only the cultivation of a Quasi-Supreme.

The collision with four equally-ranked powerful beings caused Ah Jiu’s delicate body to quake, coughing up a mouthful of fresh blood as she flew backward.

”Ah Jiu...”

Jun Xiaoyao stepped swiftly, catching Ah Jiu.

He hadn’t anticipated Ah Jiu would come forward to thwart the attack instead.

”Young Master, Ah Jiu is fine...” Ah Jiu spoke, but her mouth continued to bleed.

”Say no more.” Jun Xiaoyao held Ah Jiu’s slender waist with one hand, gently wiping away the blood from her lips with the other.

”Young Master...” Ah Jiu was taken aback.

Her heart had been dormant for many years, now her sole wish was to guard Jun Xiaoyao, ensuring his safe growth.

But at this moment, Jun Xiaoyao treated her with unexpected gentleness.

This made Ah Jiu realize, the young man she ought to protect now reciprocated care.

”Dare to wound you, they must die!” Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze turned icy.

As his Guardian, Ah Jiu had silently guarded him all along, and now that she was hurt, Jun Xiaoyao was incensed.

Seeing the sudden attempt thwarted, Venerable Long Kan and the four others flashed with resentment in their eyes, then without a word, broke the void to escape.

Since a surprise attack couldn’t kill Jun Xiaoyao, they utterly lost the opportunity to eliminate him.

Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to summon the Bronze Immortal Hall, a cold, ancient voice echoed from deep within the Jun Family’s Ancestral Land.

”Rampage in my Jun Family as you please? Come and go if you wish, are you really so naive?”

As the voice fell, a terrifying hand interwoven with Dao Principles descended, crushing the void like a Star Universe.

Before this terrifying force, even a Quasi-Supreme seemed as insignificant as an ant.

”Are you Jun Family intending to ignite an Immortal Battle?” Venerable Long Kan shouted angrily, mana bursting forth, trying to dissipate the hand.

He discovered himself akin to a monkey in Tathagata’s hand, utterly unable to escape the constraint.

”Again the same words, your Ancestral Dragon Nest doesn’t truly think we Jun Family are afraid, right?”

The void distorted, two gray-clad figures materialized.

It was the Jun Family’s Eighteenth Ancestor and Sixteenth Ancestor.

”My goodness, the Jun Family’s two ancestors actually revealed themselves!” All the guests present widened their eyes.

Even at Jun Xiaoyao’s tenth birthday banquet, the Eighteenth Ancestor merely wielded three swords without revealing himself.

Now, he appeared with the Sixteenth Ancestor.

What did this imply?

Not only would these four Quasi-Supremes die, but the Jun Family was bound to demand an explanation from the Four Directions Ancient Royal Clan forces.

Everyone took a deep breath, their heads tingling.

This day would ultimately change!
