Chapter 2023: Chapter 2019, the ancestral land of the Sun family (1/86)
Translator: 549690339
The importance and confidentiality of the ancestral land of the aristocratic families, who had always enjoyed a certain reputation in the world of cultivation, went without saying.
Whether it was the Sun family, which had established the Huaguo Water Curtain Group with pills, the Xiang family, which had made a fortune with talismans, or the nine temples family, which was famous for eliminating demons on the Sun Island, almost all of them had their ancestral land.
However, the existence of the ancestral land was a secret, and only a few people knew of its existence. This was because to these aristocratic families, the ancestral land was an important place for the family’s lifeline.
Not only did it seal the important foundation that a large family could use at a critical moment, but it was also an important place for the family’s fengshui and lifeline. If the location was known by hostile outsiders, it was very likely that they would do harm to it.
And once the ancestral land was destroyed, it could directly affect the future fate of the entire large family.
Of course, for such an important secret, the fewer people who knew, the better. Moreover, the family also had a family rule for such a top secret. The person who leaked it was a traitor to the family, and could be directly expelled from the family.
So when she heard that Immortal Toya had inquired about the Sun family’s ancestral land, Lotus Sun frowned slightly.
“I know that the ancestral land is of great importance, and I understand if Miss Sun doesn’t want to talk about it,”immortal Toya said with a sigh.
In fact, he had already expected this outcome. As the saying went, filial piety was the most important of all virtues, and respect for one’s ancestors was also a manifestation of filial piety. What’s more, great cultivation clans with ancestral lands had their own rules, and such rules couldn’t be easily broken.
“I’m sorry, Senior Toya and… Student Wang Ling.”
Lotus SUN’s expression was also rather helpless; Wang Ling could clearly sense that she was nervous, even her heartbeat couldn’t help quickening. “Even if I knew about this, I wouldn’t be able to tell you in detail. Although I know that senior Toya and student Wang Ling definitely didn’t mean any harm…”
Immortal Toya was clearly a little surprised by Lotus Sun’s answer.
“Then does miss sun mean that you don’t know about this?”
“Yes, Senior.”
“But the Sun family shouldn’t have any other heir besides you, right?”
“The ancestral land is of great importance. Even the heir doesn’t know about it as long as he or she hasn’t ascended to the position of family head. I don’t know what the rules of the other aristocratic families are, but the Sun family’s rules have been the same since ancient times.”
Lotus sun said, “Generally speaking, only after the succession of patriarch is confirmed will the previous patriarch hand over the position of the ancestral land in the form of a secret scroll on the day of the succession ceremony.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Immortal Toya nodded secretly. For most itinerant cultivators who were used to independent cultivation, there were times when they really didn’t know much about the situation of the noble families.
In particular, the cultivation aristocratic families had gone through many generations of evolution, and there had actually been obvious changes between the ancient and modern cultivation aristocratic families. It wasn’t difficult for the members of the aristocratic families to know the details of many details.
“Then does Miss Sun know anything about the ancestral land?”
“It’s just some rumors…”Lotus Sun smiled awkwardly. “Anyway, I heard that the Sun family’s ancestral land is a palace.”
A Palace?
Wang Ling raised his eyebrows. “No, Water Curtain Cave?”
“Oh, I find you quite humorous sometimes, Wang Ling.”Lotus Sun couldn’t help laughing.
“…”Wang Ling.
“Although water curtain cave is the Sun family’s ancestral land, it’s just a real estate. “Moreover, that place is too unconcealed; it’s not suitable to be used as the ancestral land. “The ancestral land is a place where family secrets and foundations are sealed.”
Lotus Sun also started to get curious when she said this, she hurriedly looked at Immortal Toya and Wang Ling and asked, “I know that student Wang Ling and senior Toya definitely don’t have any strange thoughts about our Sun family’s ancestral land, but I’m still very curious… What does the search for those extraterrestrial creatures who sneaked into earth and the eternal ones who used soul cultivation methods to sneak in have to do with our Sun family’s ancestral land? Why did senior want to find out about this?”
When Immortal Toya heard this, he first glanced at Wang Ling. After Wang Ling nodded, he finally felt at ease and replied.
“It’s like this, Miss Sun. I don’t know if you still remember the yin-yang Death Tribulation.”
“Of course!”Lotus sun nodded.
It was impossible for her to forget that memory until now: The Golden Man of the Evil Heavenly Dao, the Golden Lotus Buddha, the unspeakable place, and… the end of the world, the peak of her palm. She had written all of these things clearly in her little notebook.
Lotus Sun had also made up her mind in that diary.
Once she succeeded to the position of family head, she would directly seal this diary in the family ancestral land forever.
Lotus Sun had thought that the yin-yang death tribulation had already come to an end, but she hadn’t expected that the reopening of the old matter was actually related to it, and it was also a major event related to the ancestral land.
“It wasn’t because the seal on the unspeakable land had loosened that those evil heavenly dao golden men had a chance to take advantage of it, and student Wang Ling had also acted in time.”
“That’s right. But haven’t we still not found the old man who predicted the yin-yang death tribulation back then?”
“I remember that old man guessing that it was… Dao ancestor Wang?”
“It’s just a guess, but the exact identity is still unknown.”
“So, what does this have to do with our Sun family’s ancestral land?”
“This is Ling Zhenren’s idea, although I don’t know how he came to this conclusion.”At this moment, immortal Toya looked at Lotus sun and said seriously, “But since it’s Ling Zhenren’s idea, there should be a conclusion. Ling Zhenren suspects that the Sun family’s ancestor may still be alive…”
The scene was silent for a good while.
Lotus Sun’s pupils began to tremble and contract violently.
Sun family’s… ancestor?
Still alive?
If this was someone else’s theory, Lotus Sun wouldn’t believe it at all, but this was Wang Ling’s conclusion.
In fact, this was a completely new guess based on the soul planting incident.
He had been looking for Dao ancestor Wang all this time, and could confirm that he was indeed still alive in the universe.
Because the spirit of his dharma idol, the Malevolence, was still alive in the universe.
If Dao ancestor Wang’s original body split, then the malevolence would naturally cease to exist.
Previously, Wang Ling had suspected that the person who had brought up the yin-yang death tribulation to Lotus Sun was Dao ancestor Wang himself. As for why he had now shifted the focus of that old man to this ancestor of the Sun family.., in fact, it was also closely related to Dao ancestor Wang.
There was one thing that Wang Ling hadn’t mentioned to Lotus Sun, because there were too many implications involved. The more lotus sun knew, the more dangerous it would be.
That was because he was now very suspicious.
Perhaps Dao ancestor Wang had long ago used the method of soul cultivation to become a cultivator on earth.
And according to Wang Ling’s deduction of various Heavenly Dao spells,.
If Daoist ancestor Wang had used soul cultivation to change his identity, the most suitable body on earth for Daoist ancestor Wang to plant would have been the ancestor of the Sun family who had been sealed in the Sun family ancestral land ten thousand years ago
