 Chapter 3182: What Is His Background?

This green land was considered a sacred existence in the words of the Celestial Fox clan members.

They called this land Qingqiu, and it was said that the Celestial Fox ancestor achieved enlightenment through cultivation on this land.

After achieving enlightenment, Qingqiu became the ancestral land of the Celestial Fox clan.

Now, half of Qingqiu had been occupied by darkness. Anger surged in Su Li's eyes, and he was filled with killing intent.

This feeling came not only from the pollution of the ancestral land but also from the Dao itself.

The darkness from the Black Blood Realm was despised by the Dao. When Su Li saw it, a natural feeling of disgust arose from the depths of his soul.

Especially when he saw the Black Blood Sword Saint, he almost impulsively wanted to rush over and kill him.

A low growl came from his mouth, and powerful forces surged within him.

Lin Moyu gently patted his shoulder, "Hold fast to your Dao heart. Don't be deluded by external things. Even the Dao shouldn't become your heart demon."

Lin Moyu's words were like a great bell, like thunder, exploding in Su Li's soul world.

Su Li immediately came to his senses, realizing his loss of composure. He immediately guarded his Dao heart, forcibly suppressing various distracting thoughts.

Lin Moyu sighed lightly, "Ah, the Dao heart is too weak!"

As he spoke, Lin Moyu flew towards the Black Blood Sword Saint. "Follow me, don't fall behind!"

Su Li immediately followed. He knew that they might face real danger soon and couldn't stray too far from Lin Moyu.

It was quite inconceivable that an eighth-level Dao Venerable needed protection from a third-level Dao Venerable human.

"What are you doing here!"

Suddenly, an authoritative voice echoed through heaven and earth.

In the sky, a thousand-meter white fox appeared.

The white fox had seven tails, was completely snow-white, and emitted a terrifying aura. Its gaze coldly regarded Lin Moyu and Su Li.

Su Li's body trembled, and he immediately knelt down, "Celestial Fox clan member Su Li greets the Ancestral Spirit."

Lin Moyu cupped his hands and said, "Human Lin Moyu greets Senior Ancestral Spirit."

As the Celestial Fox clan leader, Su Mou only had six tails.

It was said that their ancestor had nine tails. The number of tails was an important symbol in the Celestial Fox clan.

The higher the cultivation realm and the purer the bloodline, the more tails one would have.

The Ancestral Spirit had seven tails, so its status and cultivation realm were a level higher than Su Mou's.

Lin Moyu could sense that the Ancestral Spirit had the aura of a ninth-level Dao Venerable. With the rules of the ancestral land, it should be able to exert combat power beyond the ninth-level Dao Venerable realm.

However, that was before. Now that the rules of the ancestral land had been polluted and the origin spirit vein contaminated, it was hard to say how strong the Ancestral Spirit really was.

The Ancestral Spirit directly ignored Lin Moyu and looked at Su Li, "What are you doing here?"

Su Li said, "There's a problem in the ancestral land. Two senior clan members are trapped inside, so the clan leader sent me to take a look. After all, the ancestral land is crucial to the Celestial Fox clan..."

The Ancestral Spirit interrupted Su Li, "Alright, since you're here, you're here. Follow me."

The Ancestral Spirit turned and flew away, never acknowledging Lin Moyu, as if he didn't exist.

After all, whether a third-level Dao Venerable human was present or not really made no difference.

Su Li looked at Lin Moyu apologetically, "Mr. Lin, shall we go over as well?"

Lin Moyu wasn't concerned about the Ancestral Spirit's attitude, "Your family's Ancestral Spirit is quite proud. Let's go, it's good to take a look."

After all, this Ancestral Spirit had been dealing with the Black Blood Realm for so many years and should know some information.

Following the Ancestral Spirit, the two crossed Qingqiu and arrived at a lakeside.

The lake rippled with blue-green water, reflecting mysterious waves of light.

There were a few small wooden cabins nearby, making the whole scene look harmonious.

But the black sky in the distance reflected in the lake water shattered this harmony.

By the lake, two Celestial Fox clan members were sitting there. Lin Moyu could see from afar that both were Dao Venerable realm powerhouses.

Needless to say, these were the two prospective clan leaders trapped here.

They were called Su Jin and Su Shen, two brothers. Su Jin was the older brother, and Su Shen was the younger.

If either of them could gain the Ancestral Spirit's recognition, they would be qualified to become the clan leader, and Su Mou could retire with honor.

Unfortunately, both were now trapped here.

Both men looked up at the same time. When they saw Su Li, they frowned simultaneously.

They naturally recognized Su Li, Su Mou's grandson, who was also a rare genius in the clan and might be a future clan leader candidate.

Then, when they saw Lin Moyu, they showed strange expressions.

The Ancestral Spirit flew down to the lakeside, its huge body rapidly changing into an old man with white hair and white clothes.

Except for the seven tails that still existed, in all other aspects, it was no different from a human.

After landing, Su Li immediately bowed to the two men, "Su Li greets the two clan uncles."

Su Jin asked, "What are you doing here?"

Su Li said, "The clan leader was worried about the two clan uncles, and grandfather wanted to resolve the crisis in the ancestral land, so he sent Mr. Lin to help. I'm here accompanying Mr. Lin."

Mr. Lin?

The two looked at Lin Moyu, a little third-level Dao Venerable fellow, actually being called "Mr."

However, Su Li said that Su Mou had sent this Mr. Lin to help, so clearly Su Mou had confidence in him.

Both men greatly respected Su Mou. Since Su Mou had done this, they naturally would give face.

Lin Moyu cupped his hands and said, "Human Lin Moyu greets the two seniors."

Su Jin said, "Since the clan leader calls you 'Mr.', you must have extraordinary abilities. Celestial Fox clan Su Jin greets Mr. Lin."

Su Shen also said, "Su Shen greets Mr. Lin."

Although they called him "Mr.", it was clear they didn't take Lin Moyu seriously.

The Ancestral Spirit looked at Lin Moyu and Su Li, "Several humans came before, but they all died in the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. Your luck is good to have made it through the Ten Thousand Flower Valley."

Lin Moyu said, "Why doesn't Senior mention the Ten Directions Forest?"

The Ancestral Spirit said, "I had already taken away the creatures above the seventh level in the Ten Directions Forest. With this little one here, you naturally could pass through."

At this moment, Su Li's expression was a bit strange, as if he wanted to say something but didn't.

The Ten Directions Forest had been completely leveled, not even debris remained, yet the Ancestral Spirit knew nothing about it.

Clearly, this Ancestral Spirit had completely lost control over the Ten Directions Forest.

It couldn't even control the Ten Thousand Flower Valley and the Flower of Destiny.

This meant that the Ancestral Spirit had lost control over the ancestral land.

Lin Moyu sighed, "It seems the situation is more serious than imagined. At least 70% of the origin spirit vein has been polluted."

The Ancestral Spirit's gaze suddenly focused, "How do you know?"

Lin Moyu looked at Su Li, "You explain it. I'll take a look at the formation ahead. It seems the current one won't work."

Saying this, Lin Moyu ignored the shocked Ancestral Spirit and flew directly towards the front.

Ahead was a formation group composed of a thousand formations forming a whole.

The level of the formation creator was very high. Individual formations weren't strong, but when combined, their power increased significantly.

Although he hadn't personally experienced the power of the formation, he could roughly sense that its power should be around the eighth-level Dao Venerable realm.

Among the formations Lin Moyu had seen, it was second only to the sealing formation at the bottom of the Realm Sea.

Lin Moyu guessed that this formation group must be the work of a Great Dao realm powerhouse.

Su Li detailed their experiences since entering, emphasizing Lin Moyu's analysis of the entire ancestral land situation, and also added some of his own opinions.

The Ancestral Spirit, Su Jin, and Su Shen listened with wide eyes and open mouths. The Ten Directions Forest had actually been destroyed, yet they still passed the test.

The Ancestral Spirit said in a low voice, "What is his background?"
