The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1216 - 464: Welcome the Sun God! _2

"Although this time we are not the ones going to war, our bond with the Hanba Clan is like that of brothers. If we could reclaim our homeland, we would do our ancestors proud."

Loyal guardians of Mang Hao, Elder Yin and Elder Yang, one excited, the other composed.

Mang Hao smiled dumbly and confirmed again:

"Has the message been passed down? The Hanba Clan doesn’t need our help as long as we provide them with coordinates and intelligence—that’s enough."

"This is a battle of Divine Enthronement, and the outcome is not yet decided. Our clan members must not return."

"Of course, as an elder, managing affairs will ease your worries, young master."

Elder Yin chuckled softly, looked up at the approaching destination, and his smile gradually faded:

"Although the supreme of the Hanba Clan is confident, I shouldn’t worry needlessly."

"But there are still uncertainties. How strong the Desolate God is is one thing; whether Giant Kun Valley and Wooden God Mountain will intervene is another."

"Hehe, if they wanted to intervene, they would have done so already. Why wait?"

Mie Quan jumped out of the cabin, placed his hands on the edge of the ship, his expression smug, and beamed:

"The ’Green Vine Immortal’ of Wooden God Mountain, who controls the way of natural life, counters the way of life plundered by our Ancestor."

"Giant Kun Valley, they were just one of the three major Insect forces during the Ancient Era."

"Over the years, the other two either perished or merged. Thus, Giant Kun Valley has become a pilgrimage site for the Fond Spirits of the Insect lineage, proclaiming themselves the origin. Modern people see no problem, but in our eyes, there’s still a bit of a ’country bumpkin turned noble’ visual shock."

Ye Hanjun pondered and joined the conversation:

"Elder Mie Quan, I heard that the Green Vine Immortal of Wooden God Mountain yearns for peace. As the least belligerent of the Medicine Divine spirits, he would only join the battle of Divine Enthronement when pushed to a corner."

"But Giant Kun Valley has been dormant for many years and might hold more Divine Enthronements than just the ’Giant Vein Divine Dragonfly.’"

"If they exert their full strength, they are still a great trouble. We should remain cautious."

"Relax, relax."

Mie Quan patted Ye Hanjun’s shoulder, his laughter sonorous:

"Divinities that dare not even divulge their names are either too old and close to death or riddled with wounds and in a terrible state."

"Let me tell you a secret—the ’Insect Mother Divine Assembly’, one of the three major Insect forces of the Ancient Cosmos, was killed by our Ancestor."

"At that time, Giant Kun Valley was not strong enough, and the first generation of Giant Vein Divine Dragonfly was so terrified, it sealed the valley for an epoch, daring not let its people venture out."

"The current Giant Vein Divine Dragonfly is probably a descendant from one of its grandsons, inheriting the Divinity passed down by its ancestor."

"Even if young and vigorous, I don’t believe it dares block our path when it hears the words ’Hanba’."

As he spoke, Mie Quan’s eyes brightened, and suddenly he burst into hearty laughter:

"Look, speak of the devil."

"We haven’t really concealed ourselves along the way. Approaching the temple gate, both Wooden God Mountain and Giant Kun Valley can no longer sit still."

"Two divine children of the Solar Abyss, it’s your turn to go up and interact, whether you choose a high profile or a low one, no one can hinder our entrance to Earth God Mountain."

"Whoosh..."

A flying shuttle surged into the clouds, stopping steadily in front of the bone ship.

On the shuttle stood a man and a woman, the man handsome, the woman pure, both of great appeal.

"May I ask where you are from? Are you here on such grand display for the Desolate God?"

"Flap flap..."

On another side, three holy insects flapped their wings rapidly and followed.

The leading ladybug’s eyes turned red, appearing fierce.

But its insect limbs were faintly trembling. Though the movement was slight, Mie Quan noticed it and couldn’t help but reveal a mocking smile.

"Clang!"

Ye Hanjun cut through the defensive curtain with his Sword Thunder Child, floating in midair as if treading on flat ground.

He manifested a dual aspect; on one side, his silk white robe surrounded by light of blessings, paired with golden hair, as if born a ruler of a whole faith.

On the other side, robe trailing, body covered in blood curses, even fingertips stained with blood, the abyss vortex at his abdomen, and the fresh flower corpses under his feet, all proved he had just returned from Hell, if not to kneel before him would be an enormous disrespect.

"!"

The man and woman on the flying shuttle were on high alert.

Both saints, such a presence and aura spoke volumes of their extraordinariness.

"It really is the Hanba Clan!"

The leading ladybug’s eyes were sharp, and the moment the curtain was torn, it immediately spotted Mie Quan, then suddenly threw back its head:

"I’ve long heard that the Solar Abyss was only dormant, not truly extinct."

"The Hanba Clan has re-emerged? In every second epoch of every Cosmic Era, it’s indeed an era of great strife, difficult for any creature to ignore..."

"Gentlefolk, we have come for the Desolate God and wish not to generate additional conflict."

"If you continue to block the ship’s voyage, it might lead to misinterpretation, which could be disastrous for you."

Ye Hanjun exhaled like clouds, unruffled.

Unable to recognize the Solar and Barren totems of Ling Yao and Ling Shuo in time, they belatedly realized, their pupils dilated in shock:

"The Invincible Solar Abyss of ten epochs of the Ancient Era?"

"So it’s you, no wonder you dare rush toward Earth God Mountain..."

Ling Yao, quick-thinking, immediately clarified her position, succinctly stating:

"We are not trying to block your way, Earth God Mountain has fallen, the common folk are devastated, we are here by the command of the Wooden God."

"If there are any signs of the Desolute God causing trouble, and no other divinity willing to intervene, only the Wooden God himself will have to step in..."

"Ah...we’re in the same boat."

The ladybug rotated its compound eyes, and regardless of any cunning in its heart, vocally, it was exceptionally straightforward.
