Chapter 169: The Five Great Soul Integration Old Ancestors!

The deeper into the Great Desert, the more frequent and fierce the sandstorms became.

And the surroundings were completely deserted—a true death zone, with very few daring to venture this far.

As Su Bai walked on, no matter how powerful the sandstorms were, they all collapsed and ceased the moment he passed through.

After a while, he stopped again.

The core area of the Great Desert—he had arrived!

*Boom!*

No sooner had Su Bai stepped into this place than an incredibly sharp attack came hurtling toward him.

It was a flying sword, shining with a brilliant silver light, carrying a chilling killing intent. It tore through space, shattered the void, and aimed straight at Su Bai’s forehead!

This strike alone was enough to instantly kill an ordinary Venerable!

A powerful existence beyond the Void Refinement Realm had made their move!

Su Bai raised his hand, flicked his finger, and sent the flying sword spinning off course.

At the same time, his gaze turned icy as he locked onto a massive sandstorm not far away.

“Hmm?”

The fact that Su Bai was still alive after that strike clearly exceeded the attacker’s expectations.

“Why is there another Daoist arriving?”

A deep buzzing voice came from within the sandstorm, and a figure formed out of swirling gray mist.

This sandstorm was even larger and fiercer than any Su Bai had encountered before, yet the figure inside appeared completely unbothered, a testament to its terrifying power!

“This Daoist is rather unfamiliar,” said a pair of eerie green eyes that materialized within the gray mist, staring fixedly at Su Bai.

It was none other than a Grand Venerable of the Soul Integration Realm!

“Besides us, how could anyone else know about this matter?”

Another voice spoke out—a burly man clad in blood-red battle armor, wielding a blood-red spear, exuding overwhelming martial hostility as his cold gaze bore into Su Bai.

He was also a Grand Venerable of the Soul Integration Realm!

“Has someone leaked our secret?”

Suddenly, a black-robed Old Man appeared, stepping through the air with piercing, razor-sharp eyes that stabbed straight at Su Bai.

Within a very short span, three Grand Venerables of the Soul Integration Realm had now shown themselves!

“Who are you? Why does this Old Ancestor have no memory of you?”

“Anyone who has reached the Soul Integration Realm was once a Heaven’s Chosen One who dominated their era. Who exactly are you?”

A shadowy mist appeared, inside which a White Jade Skeleton sat cross-legged suspended in midair. Its eye sockets glowed with a pair of purple flame-like eyes fixed intently on Su Bai.

The fourth Grand Venerable of the Soul Integration Realm!

“Interesting. Even the records of the Heavenly Palace contain no mention of your existence!”

“Speak. Are you some Grand Venerable demon lord from the Demon Realm, or perhaps a powerful being from an ancient, long-sealed race?”

The last figure, a mysterious person clad in a black cloak, also appeared before Su Bai.

In total, five Grand Venerables of the Soul Integration Realm had gathered together!

The five great Grand Venerables all stood before Su Bai, their gazes filled with ill intent.

Another contender meant yet one more rival!

The chances of claiming the legendary treasure successfully just got a lot slimmer!

Su Bai looked cold and indifferent, calmly facing the five powerful adversaries without a hint of fear—his composure was frighteningly serene!

From the earlier probing by one of the Grand Venerables, it was clear that his current strength was on par with the Soul Integration Realm and was sufficient to engage any of them in a life-or-death battle.

Moreover, he still had a trump card!

That card was Zhuge Feng’s Future Pill!

Zhuge Feng, who had been cultivating for only three years, had already reached the Nascent Soul Realm.

What realm would he reach a century from now?

The Future Pill contained the power Zhuge Feng would possess a hundred years into the future and would augment Su Bai’s own strength on top of that!

In other words, after taking the Future Pill, Su Bai’s power would definitely increase.

As for how much his strength would increase, that would depend on how far Zhuge Feng could cultivate a hundred years from now.

“Before asking others, shouldn’t you introduce yourselves first?” Su Bai said calmly, without revealing his own stance.

“Hmph, I am the Northern Darkness Old Ancestor of the Northern Darkness Sect in Northern Xuan Prefecture!” The first to speak was the figure emerging from the gray mist, revealing a gray-robed old man.

“From Eastern Xuan Prefecture, Dominating Heaven Sect, I am the Dominating Heaven Old Ancestor!” A burly man clad in blood-red battle armor also spoke, his tone cold and domineering.

“The Old Ancestor of Southern Heavenly Gate in Southern Xuan Prefecture!” The third to appear was a black-robed old man who, when looking at Su Bai, revealed a flicker of surprise in his eyes.

Why did this person carry the aura of a venerable from his own sect?

“Heh heh, the Bliss Old Ancestor of the Bliss Realm is here!” The White Jade Skeleton spoke coldly, its chilling voice sending a shiver down the spine.

The last mysterious figure wearing a bamboo hat spoke proudly: “From the Heavenly Palace, the Tianjue Old Ancestor!”

All five Grand Venerable Old Ancestors introduced themselves, declaring their identities and origins!

Four top Soul Integration Realm Old Ancestors from the four great Xuan Prefectures, plus one Fusion Grand Venerable from the Heavenly Palace!

Su Bai’s gaze swept over the five, lingering especially on three of them:

The Southern Heavenly Old Ancestor of Southern Heavenly Gate…

The Northern Darkness Old Ancestor of the Northern Darkness Sect who had once struck him…

And finally, the Tianjue Old Ancestor of the Heavenly Palace!

“We’ve all announced our names and origins. You, too, should reveal your identity and background,” the Northern Darkness Old Ancestor said coldly, narrowing his eyes as he stared at Su Bai.

“Want to hear it?” Su Bai smiled slyly and replied, “Southern Ridge, Heavenly Dao Sect, Su Bai!”
