“Greetings, High Priest!”
In Qingshan Temple, Yin Siming brought Wei Cangming and the others to Tushan Cangyue and bowed respectfully.
Hearing this, Tushan Cangyue’s cold eyes swept across the crowd and nodded.
“Does the Canglan ancient race sincerely pledge allegiance to the Tushan family and sincerely worship the Qingshan Great God?”
“Yes! High Priest, I am Grand Elder Wei Cangming from the Canglan ancient race. Today, I have brought Clan Leader Wei Chaotian and the other elders here to worship the God of Great Green Mountain. From now on, the Canglan ancient race is willing to serve the Great God devoutly and never betray him. I hope that the High Priest will show mercy and forgive our past sins.”
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Wei Cangming knelt and kowtowed heavily. Wei Chaotian and the others behind him did the same.
“Everyone, get up. Since you are sincere and want to become the people of the Qingshan Great God, you will be a part of the Tushan family from now on. Canglan ancient race no longer exists.”
Her indifferent voice slowly sounded.
What? The name “Canglan ancient race” was banned?
Hearing this, Wei Cangming and the others were shocked. They clenched their fists tightly and their hearts were filled with sorrow.
The Canglan ancient race had been passed down for tens of thousands of years and could be considered a large faction in the eastern region. Their foundation and strength were quite strong. Who would have thought that they would end up in such a situation today?
The name that had been used for tens of thousands of years would be buried in the river of time from now on. This made them feel extremely sad.
However, due to their fear of the Tushan family’s great power, they didn’t dare to disobey or resist, even though they were full of unwillingness and humiliation. That would only bring disaster to the entire race.
“Grand Heavenly Master, did the Canglan ancient race follow the tradition of the Tushan family and show their sincerity to Qingshan Great God?” Tushan Cangyue asked Yin Siming.
“Yes. The Canglan ancient race admires the Great God’s majesty and is eager to become His subjects. Therefore, each of them offered at least fifty years of their lifespan. The vast majority of people even sacrificed more than a hundred years of their lifespan,” Yin Siming replied.
Hearing that, Tushan Cangyue looked satisfied.
“Good. Since the Canglan ancient race has such well-meaning intentions, 1 believe the Great God will be happy. Wei Cangming, you can stay on Great Green Mountain for now. It won’t be too late for you to go back after you familiarize yourself with the traditions and rules of the Tushan family. When the time is right, the Great God will naturally bestow His divine grace.”
After saying that, she immediately summoned a divine servant to take Wei Cangming and the others away.
“By the way, High Priest, when I went to the Canglan ancient race previously, I happened to meet High Emissary Lei Tiangang from the Eastern Shrine. He was there to announce the conscription decree of the Eastern Shrine. Without another choice, 1 fought with High Emissary Lei Guang and accidentally killed him.”
Yin Siming handed the golden divine sword and a decree scroll to Tushan Cangyue.
A middle-grade divine weapon?
Taking over the golden divine sword, Tushan Cangyue was surprised.
After sizing it up a few times, she put it aside and opened the decree from the Eastern Shrine.
“Hmm? The Eastern Shrine is recruiting all cultivators in and above the Divine Illumination realm?”
Tushan Cangyue was surprised.
“Oh, it should be because the foreign races on Dual World Mountains have become quite strong. The Eastern Shrine seems to want the entire human race to fight against them. It’s fine if we win, but if we lose, the humans of the eastern region won’t have a good life,” Yin Siming sighed.
The rapid reduction of territory and resources would definitely bring disaster to the human race in the eastern region. At that time, who knew how many living beings and forces had been destroyed because of it?
The Tushan family would also be affected.
“Regarding the Dual World War, the Great God has his plans. Killing High Emissary Lei Guang of the Eastern Shrine is a small matter. If they dare to come to Great Green Mountain, the Tushan family is not be trifled with either,” Tushan Cangyue said calmly.
The Qingshan Great God was their greatest source of confidence.
“Someone.”
Whoosh.
As the voice sounded, a divine servant quickly came.
“Go and summon the Night Emissary, Dragon Seeker Emissary, emissary of River Lethe, Grand Elder, and Goddess. I have some instructions for them.”
“Yes!”
The divine servant bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
A moment later, Wu Huan, Xie Wuyou, Feng Changqing, Tushan Ming, and Tushan Ruoruo arrived at Qingshan Temple together.
“Greetings, High Priest!”
“No need for formalities. 1 gathered you here today because I have something important to announce. 1 plan to go to the other side of River Lethe tomorrow morning to find the eighth ancestral land of the Tushan family, so get ready. At that time, all of you will come with me,” Tushan Cangyue said calmly.
Eighth ancestral land?
Hearing that, everyone except for Tushan Ming was confused.
“Big sister, does the Tushan family still have an ancestral land?” Tushan Ruoruo asked curiously.
“Of course. The ancestral land of the Great Green Mountain’s Tushan family is on the other side of River Lethe, in Sunset Tomb. The Qingshan Great God also originated there. Currently, Sunset Tomb has been sealed for many years. It’s time to take a look.”
At this point, Tushan Cangyue immediately turned to Feng Changqing.
“Feng Changqing, you control the Lethe Altar, which allows you to avoid the evil and great terror in River Lethe. When the time comes, you will lead the way.”
“Yes!”
Feng Changqing bowed in agreement.
“Oh right, go and inform the Wicked Trio about this.”
What? The Wicked Trio was also going?
Everyone was puzzled.
“High Priest, those three are not from the Tushan family. Besides, they are cruel and greedy. If they go to our ancestral land…”
“It’s fine. With Qingshan Great God around, they won’t be able to cause any trouble,” Tushan Cangyue said calmly.
“One more thing. From today onwards, the Canglan ancient race will be under the rule of Great Green Mountain and will become a part of the Tushan family. When the time is right, 1 will pray to the Great God that He bestow divine grace.”
What? The Canglan ancient race had also submitted?
Hearing this, everyone was stunned at first, but then they revealed a look of joy. With this, the power and foundation of the Tushan family had been greatly improved.
Putting that aside, what they were most concerned about was divine grace. Each time they received divine grace, it was a great fortune for them.
Especially now that they had all cultivated the Great God-Demon Scripture, if they received the blessing of Fate Energy, their cultivation would definitely increase even more.
Thinking of this, everyone was filled with anticipation.
Time flew by.
The next day, Tushan Cangyue and the others, as well as the Wicked Trio, gathered by River Lethe.
Looking over, River Lethe was dark, and the surface of the river was covered in a monstrous black fog that seemed to contain endless evil and great terror.
“Changqing, how wide is River Lethe?” Wu Huan asked curiously.
Hearing this, Feng Changqing revealed an unfathomable look.
“River Lethe is one million feet wide.”
“Uh, only one million feet?”
“Yes.”
“Doesn’t that mean we’ll be there in a few steps?” Xie Wuyou interjected.
In response, Feng Changqing shook his head.
“How can it be that easy? River Lethe is only one million feet wide, but it is filled with countless dangers, including all kinds of illusions, vengeful spirits, demons, and great terror. Moreover, the fog above River Lethe can corrode the body and soul. It’s not something that just anyone can force their way through. Even if I control the Lethe Altar, I still have to be careful and not take a wrong step.”
At this point, Feng Changqing’s expression also became solemn. There was fear between his brows.
At the same time, his eyes kept scanning the surroundings, afraid that something terrifying would rush out.
Seeing how cautious he was, everyone could not help but feel a sense of heaviness in their hearts. All of them looked at their surroundings warily.
“By the way, Changqing, you’ve been staying in River Lethe all this time. Have you been to the other side of River Lethe?”
Yin Siming’s voice sounded from the crowd.
“Yes, Grand Heavenly Master. Some time ago, I crossed River Lethe and went to the other side. 1 discovered that there seemed to be an ancient race living there. However, there aren’t many of them. I took the risk to investigate and vaguely heard them call themselves the Sunset ancient race,” Feng Changqing replied.
Sunset ancient race?
Hearing that, Tushan Cangyue turned to Tushan Ming, who shook his head.
Obviously, he didn’t know much about this race.
“Any other discoveries?”
“High Priest, I think 1 saw that the Sunset ancient race was also worshipping the God of Great Green Mountain. However, their statues are slightly different from those on Great Green Mountain. High Priest, could the Sunset ancient race be related to the Tushan family?”
Feng Changqing voiced the doubts in his heart.
As soon as he said this, everyone present was shocked.
“If that’s the case, then it must be related to the Tushan family. As for the exact situation, we will know when we reach the other side of River Lethe,” Tushan Ming spoke up.
After that, under Feng Changqing’s guidance, they steered the Boat of Paramita towards the other side of River Lethe..
