Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1438 - 5: Recognizing One’s Roots, Panel Upgrade!

The boots emitted a faint purple-gold glow, under closer inspection, they sparkled like stars, as if he was treading on celestial bodies!

As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse.

The oppressive aura emanating just from the attire of the Purple Moon Mansion Master was enough to frighten people to death.

All the bones in Purple Bone's body trembled, and Zhao Xing's breathing became labored.

However, this only lasted for a moment; upon seeing Zhao Xing and Purple Bone in the Ascension Realm, the Purple Moon Mansion Master immediately withdrew the overwhelming phenomena and dimmed the glow of his Daoist Soldier.

"How did Qing Yu Zi, Putta, and Su Wan die?" The Purple Moon Mansion Master asked Zhao Xing.

"Senior, this is Senior Qing Yu Zi's remains, and the belongings he left behind." Zhao Xing took out the Qiankun Bag and respectfully handed it over. Then he retrieved an Ice Coffin from the Pure Essence Space, with Qing Yu Zi's body frozen inside. "Inside, there's also his personally recorded last words."

The Qiankun Bag and Ice Coffin were immediately taken away; seeing the disciple's remains, the Purple Moon Mansion Master couldn't help but feel overcome with sadness: "Yu'er, my Yu'er..."

Even someone in the Tao Domain Realm is human, possessing strong personal emotions; the Purple Moon Mansion Master at this moment was more like a helpless old man than a top expert.

Purple Bone and Zhao Xing immediately lowered their heads, not daring to witness the vulnerability of this powerhouse.

It might seem cruel to say, but the Purple Moon Mansion Master's high regard for Qing Yu Zi was indeed a great fortune for them.

"Teacher, I'm ashamed that I couldn't be filial before you..." Qing Yu Zi's image reappeared through the Time Jade Scroll, kneeling on the ground, bowing to a certain direction. "Please don't grieve excessively, your disciple died of old age, so he could be considered to have passed away peacefully."

"Years ago, Putta, Junior Sister Su Wan, and I went out to investigate the phenomenon of the Desolate Domain; around twelve thousand years ago, we arrived at a place called..."

Zhao Xing and Purple Bone could hear Qing Yu Zi's last words, but certain matters were concealed from them, seeming to be shielded by the Purple Moon Mansion Master.

"After exploring for about thirty thousand years, I obtained some clues and planned to return with my junior brother and sister."

"Unexpectedly, when passing through the star system of the Chenluo Wasteland, we encountered an ambush."

"The people ambushing me were two in the Divine Power Realm, both members of the East Extending Ancient Clan!"

East Extending Ancient Clan?

Zhao Xing and Purple Bone also learned for the first time about Qing Yu Zi's three enemies, appearing to be an ancient force.

Ancient Clans are generally referred to as major forces within the Ancient Country, having existed for a long time, controlling vast territories with numerous strong individuals.

"The three disciples exhausted the treasures granted by their mentors, managing to barely escape with their lives, but the Boundary Boat was damaged."

"Unfortunately, during our fleeing and recuperation, we landed in a strange small world."

"By that time, Junior Sister Wan'er had fallen into a coma, Junior Brother Putta was severely injured, and within the small world, we could only maintain the Ascension Realm level..."

What Qing Yu Zi narrated next was no different from what Zhao Xing knew.

This unfortunate experience truly made the listeners' hearts ache and brought tears to their eyes.

"Xuanhuang Realm, accursed Xuanhuang Realm, return my disciple!" The Purple Moon Mansion Master's grief was immense. His disciple's time shouldn't have ended so soon.

Surviving the enemies' pursuit was like picking up a life.

But landing in this small world called Xuanhuang Realm, they were trapped to death!

Putta had it the worst, disappearing after just a thousand years.

Qing Yu Zi and Su Wan survived tens of thousands of years.

"Later, your disciple set up a trial of inheritance within the Xuanhuang Realm, waiting for someone to bring your disciple's belongings back to the Purple God Mansion."

"The activation of the Time Jade Scroll proves that the teacher has opened it, making the disciple glad to return home; please teacher, bury me at Qingyu Border Star."

Qing Yu Zi bowed deeply forward: "My last wish beside wishing the teacher well, is to kindly treat the person who brought me home."

"If it's my disciple, please teacher instruct them; if they're just fellow cultivators, also please teacher fulfill their wishes as much as possible."

"Oh, by the way." Qing Yu Zi touched his head, muttering to himself: "I almost forgot how long it'll be before the news reaches you. If you have already cultivated to the Reincarnation Realm, then could you resurrect me?"

"Teacher, your disciple has another wish: a plea for resurrection."

"If not possible, just forget I said so, ha ha ha."

The Purple Moon Mansion Master seemed infected by his disciple's optimistic spirit, his expression calmed down a lot, even showing a faint smile.

He carefully stored the disciple's remains, gazing at the starry sky for a while before refocusing on Zhao Xing.

"What is your name?"

"Responding to the senior, my name is Zhao Xing."

"It appears you've passed my disciple's trial of inheritance." The Purple Moon Mansion Master scrutinized Zhao Xing.

"Yes, thanks to Senior Qing Yu Zi's inheritance, I've arrived here without danger."

The Purple Moon Mansion Master frowned and said: "If you accepted the inheritance, you must regard him as your teacher. Are you unwilling?" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Zhao Xing quickly responded: "In my heart, I've long seen Senior Qing Yu Zi as my teacher, but with the teacher from such a renowned great sect and me of humble origin, as insignificant as grass, I dare not attach myself so boldly."

"Receiving the teacher's guidance to the vast universe and starry sky is already satisfying, I dare not hope for more."

Seeing Zhao Xing so genuinely fearful, the Purple Moon Mansion Master understood.

A native ascended to the Desolate Domain, which is extremely difficult. To pass through requires thorough disguise and utmost caution.

If not for this cautious and careful nature, Zhao Xing likely wouldn't have survived until now; his reluctance to claim Qing Yu Zi as his teacher was understandable.
