Chapter 1072 The New Master of the Desolate Ancestor Body Appears

It's been three years already.

Huang Qiu stared expressionlessly at the Great Desolate Tower, a look of solemnity appearing in his eyes. His deep voice held a hint of shock as he said, "That Mo Yu, could it be that he has truly gained the approval of the Desolate Ancestor Body?!"

He originally thought Mo Yu would stay for at most a year, but now it's been almost three years and there's still no sign of him.

Judging from this, it seems that Mo Yu has truly gained the approval of the Desolate Ancestor Body and is about to inherit it.

"Very likely." Behind Huang Qiu, Elder Huang Gu Fan also showed a solemn expression on his face and said.

Three years is enough time for anything to happen; no one has ever stayed in the Great Wilderness Tower for such a long time since it opened.

The Desolate Ancestor Body has been in the hands of the Desolate Ancient Clan for thousands of years, but during this time, not a single clansman has been recognized by it. Now that it has fallen into the hands of outsiders, the Grand Elder's feelings are complicated.

“We have already sealed off this area, so Mo Yu has no chance of escaping. If he wants to hide here for the rest of his life, my Ancient Desolate Clan will accompany him to the very end.”

"That's right! Our Ancient Desolate Clan has protected the Desolate Ancestor's Body for thousands of years, and we absolutely cannot let an outsider reap the rewards!"

"The Desolate Ancestor Body has become the symbol of my Ancient Desolate Clan, and we will never allow outsiders to defile it!"

At this moment, the elders of the ancient clan present were filled with righteous indignation.

All members of the Ancient Wilderness Clan have long regarded the Ancient Wilderness Body as a symbol of the clan. If it were to be easily taken away by others, wouldn't they be ridiculed?

In any case, the Desolate Ancestor Body can only fall into the hands of the Desolate Ancient Clan!

Upon hearing this, Huang Qiu's gaze shifted constantly. Faced with the righteous indignation of his people, he neither directly agreed nor refused.

His gaze was fixed on the Great Wilderness Tower, and no one knew what he was thinking.

……

"Elder Taishan, has the news reached the Thunder Continent yet? Judging from the desolate ancient clan's attitude, they probably won't let my elder brother take away the Desolate Ancestor Body so easily." In a corner outside the Great Desolate Tower, Zi Huo looked in the direction of Huang Qiu and the others, his expression somewhat grim.

The undercurrents within the Ancient Desolate Clan were not something that Zi Huo, being no reckless man, had noticed. The purpose behind the Ancient Desolate Clan's large-scale mobilization was quite obvious!

"It's already been reported back. The Prison Lord is mobilizing troops to rush to the Great Wilderness Continent. I heard that the Flame Emperor of the Endless Fire Domain and that Martial Ancestor of the Martial Realm also came to lend a hand after hearing about this. Even if the Ancient Wilderness Clan turns their backs on us, our Thunder Prison won't be completely helpless." Venerable Taishan swallowed and whispered to Zi Huo.

As he said this, he looked nervously toward the direction of the Ancient Desolate Clan, afraid that they would hear him.

After all, waging war against an ancient race was something Venerable Taishan never expected.

The five ancient races are the most powerful forces in the Great Thousand World. Ordinary forces are already considered remarkable if they possess a single Heavenly Sovereign, but among these ancient races, which one doesn't have dozens of Heavenly Sovereign powerhouses?

More importantly, among the five ancient races, there is also a Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign!

There is a saying in the world: below the Saint rank, all are ants. Every Saint rank Heavenly Sovereign is truly comparable to a hundred ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns!

However, the Ancient Wilderness Clan possesses two Saint-grade experts!

"I hope it won't escalate, otherwise, the future of my Thunder Prison will be uncertain..." Venerable Taishan said with a worried expression.

Although Thunder Prison has grown stronger and more powerful in recent years, it is still too weak compared to these old-established ancient races. More importantly, Thunder Prison does not have a Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign to oversee it.

When the two sides go to war, even though Venerable Taishan is already loyal to Lei Yu, he does not have much hope.

On the other side, Qingxuan looked at the Great Wilderness Tower, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she asked incredulously, "Xiaojing, do you think that Moyu really gained the approval of the Wilderness Ancestor Body?"

The Desolate Ancestor Body is one of the five original Dharma Bodies, in no way inferior to the Endless Light Body of her Floating Ancient Clan. However, such a powerful Dharma Bodhi was actually obtained by Mo Yu, which made Qing Xuan feel as if she was witnessing history.

Qingyanjing's mind was also extremely unsettled. Three years had passed in the blink of an eye, and everyone knew what that meant. The Desolate Ancestor Body had most likely fallen into Moyu's hands.

Even though she thought Mo Yu was exceptionally talented and different from others, she never expected that the latter would actually gain the recognition of the Desolate Ancestor Body.

"Judging from the appearance of the Ancient Desolate Clan, even if he obtains the Desolate Ancestor Body, it will probably not be so easy for him to take it away." Qing Yanjing looked at Huang Qiu and the others, biting her red lips as she spoke.

“The Ancient Desolate Clan will definitely not let this go, after all, that is the Primordial Dharma Body. Even though no one from the Ancient Desolate Clan has been recognized by the Ancestor Body for so many years, as long as the Ancestor Body is in the Great Desolate Tower, the Ancient Desolate Clan will still have hope. Now that Mo Yu has taken the Ancestor Body away, the Ancient Desolate Clan will definitely not accept it,” Qingxuan said.

Qing Yanjing's gaze shifted constantly before she finally let out a soft sigh.

She also knew that it would be extremely difficult for Mo Yu to take away the Desolate Ancestor Body.

However, her status in the Ancient Buddha Clan has plummeted, and her strength has only just reached the level of a Grandmaster of Immortal-grade Spirit Arrays. If she wants to help Mo Yu, she is probably powerless to do so.

……

Inside the Great Wilderness Tower.

Time seemed to stand still in the chaotic space, as a vast and boundless primordial energy surged forth and converged into that primordial body.

On the surface of that primordial body, primordial energy swirled, forming what appeared to be a bronze cocoon.

At a certain moment, the figure seemed to tremble slightly, his eyes quivered, and then those eyes, which had been closed for three years, slowly opened.

laugh!

The moment it opened its eyes, two beams of purple-gold light shot out from its eyes, piercing through the chaotic space and traveling hundreds of thousands of feet across the void before gradually dissipating.

The figure opened its mouth and swallowed all the primordial energy into its body in one gulp.

The primordial energy slowly dissipated, and in that chaotic space, a naked body slowly appeared.

The body was fair-skinned, slender and powerful, with pores that faintly emitted a bronze luster, and a faint primordial aura flowed out, making it mysterious and unpredictable.

Mo Yu lowered his head, staring blankly at the body that radiated a bronze luster. He felt the unprecedentedly powerful force within him, then raised his head and let out a long roar that pierced through the heavens and earth.

Boom boom!

The entire chaotic space trembled under its roar.

In the shadows, the aged figure watched this scene and finally couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

After three years of arduous cultivation, he finally achieved the primordial form.

Outside the Great Wilderness Tower, Huang Qiu, Qing Yanjing, and the others suddenly sensed something, abruptly looked up at the Eternal Tower, and then they heard a rolling howl coming from inside the tower.

"Finally, there's some movement!"

The expressions of the powerful figures on both sides changed, and in the next instant, the already oppressive atmosphere was suddenly filled with a hidden killing intent.

Outside the city, countless powerful figures watched this scene, all gasping in shock. This three-year-long standoff was finally about to erupt today.

A rolling roar, like thunder, shook the heavens and the earth, emanating from the Great Wilderness Tower and resounding throughout.

This sudden howl instantly attracted the attention of the powerful figures outside the Great Wilderness Tower, and they all immediately became serious.

Because they sensed that when that howling sound appeared, a faint restlessness arose where the Ancient Clan was located; it seemed the Ancient Clan was about to make their move…

"It seems Mo Yu won't be able to hide any longer."

"There's no other way. The Desolate Ancestor Body is the lifeblood of the Desolate Ancient Clan. They can't just keep hiding forever, can they? Judging from the Desolate Ancient Clan's attitude, they obviously won't give up easily."

"No one could have imagined that the Desolate Ancestor Body had been in the hands of the Desolate Ancient Clan for thousands of years, yet no one had been recognized by it for so long. Mo Yu, a mere outsider, inherited the Desolate Ancestor Body right from the start. It is truly astonishing."

"Yes, Mo Yu is indeed a genius. It won't be long before Lei Yu becomes a top super power in the Great Thousand World. However, although Lei Yu is strong, it has not yet truly grown in strength. Moreover, this is the territory of the Ancient Desolate Clan. If a fight really breaks out, they might suffer a loss. In that case, the Ancient Desolate Ancestral Body might really be snatched back by the Ancient Desolate Clan."

"."

Outside the city, various factions whispered among themselves, but they all clearly believed that Mo Yu's disappearance for the past three years was to avoid the sharp edge of the Ancient Desolate Clan.

However, the Ancient Wilderness Clan ignored the noises outside the city. Their eyes were fixed on the Great Wilderness Tower, but their eyes revealed different emotions.

Some clansmen were indignant that Mo Yu had taken away the Desolate Ancestor's Body.

Some members of the Ancient Wilderness Clan felt ashamed, never expecting that the Ancient Wilderness Body they had protected for so many years was inferior to an outsider.

Buzz!

Under their gaze, the Great Wilderness Tower seemed to tremble at this moment, and circles of mysterious light emanated from it.

Immediately afterwards, a beam of light suddenly shot up from the top of the tower, piercing the sky.

Huang Qiu and the others raised their heads, their eyes fixed on the top of the tower. In the dense pillar of light, a tall, slender figure slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

The figure was tall and slender, his clothes swaying gently, and the pores on his body faintly shimmered with a bronze glow. His handsome face shone with a faint jade light, and golden light flowed deep within his dark eyes, giving him an aura of mystery and indescribability.

This figure was none other than Mo Yu, who had been in seclusion in the Great Wilderness Tower for three years.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Mo Yu remained calm and unmoved.

The moment he stepped out of the Great Wilderness Tower, he sensed the oppressive and terrifying atmosphere in the world.

Faced with this situation, he would probably have been quite apprehensive before stepping into the Great Wilderness Tower, since his strength was insufficient and he could not maintain true inner peace.

It's just a pity that these three years of secluded cultivation have improved Mo Yu to an indescribable degree.

"What a grand display! Although I was fortunate enough to be recognized by the Desolate Ancestor, I still feel somewhat ashamed to be greeted with such courtesy by the Desolate Ancient Clan."

Mo Yu's gaze swept down to the terrifying lineup on the high platform, his eyes lingering on Huang Qiu and the twenty Heavenly Sovereigns behind him for a moment before he smiled faintly.

Outside the city, the powerful figures from various super forces couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.

This Mo Yu is really audacious. Anyone with eyes can see that the Ancient Desolate Clan is hostile, yet he still speaks like this, as if he has nothing to fear.

"Lord Moyu, have you truly obtained the Desolate Ancestor Body!?" At this moment, the Great Elder of the Desolate Ancient Clan stepped forward, looked at Moyu, and inquired.

"Yes, I am destined to inherit the Desolate Ancestor Body. I have gained its recognition, so I naturally inherited the Desolate Ancestor Body. By the way, Brother Huangxuan and Brother Huangye must have also participated in the test. They should know something about it." Mo Yu said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Huang Xuan and Huang Ye, who were not far away, immediately showed an embarrassed expression.

They did participate in the test, but one was eliminated in the Bone Refining stage and the other in the Soul Refining stage. They didn't even have the qualifications to see the Desolate Ancestor Body.

Seeing that Mo Yu had truly obtained the Desolate Ancestor Body, Huang Qiu slowly lowered his arms, his eyes, which exuded an imposing aura, looked at Mo Yu, and said solemnly, "Master Mo Yu is truly exceptionally talented, to be able to gain the recognition of the Desolate Ancestor Body, which is truly astonishing to the world."

Mo Yu also looked at Huang Qiu and smiled, "Clan Chief Huang, you flatter me. I may just have had a bit more luck than the rest of the Huanggu Clan."

Huang Xuan and Huang Ye's eyelids twitched wildly. Having participated in the test of the Huang Ancestral Body, they knew very well that it was definitely not something that could be passed by luck.

Huang Qiu's expression remained unchanged. He said directly, "As you know, Lord Mo Yu also knows that our Ancient Desolate Clan has protected the Desolate Ancestor's Body for thousands of years, during which time we have devoted countless efforts and energy. Now, Lord Mo Yu is so easily taking it away, which is probably not appropriate."

Mo Yu lowered his eyelids slightly and said, "Clan Chief Huang is wrong. Although the Huang Ancestral Body is entrusted to the Huang Ancient Clan for guarding, as a descendant of the Primordial Ancestral Ape, I also have the qualification to inherit the Huang Ancestral Body. If the Ancestral Ape had not let go back then, it is still uncertain who would have inherited the Huang Ancestral Body."

"For thousands of years, your Ancient Desolate Clan has had countless more opportunities than I have to obtain the Desolate Ancestor Body. But unfortunately, the Ancient Desolate Clan has never been able to gain its recognition as a master over the past tens of thousands of years. This is really not my fault."

Mo Yu's calm and fearless voice rang out, drawing nods of agreement from countless powerful figures.

As the inheritor of the Primordial Ancestral Ape, Mo Yu is also the legitimate inheritor of the Primordial Ancestral Body as promised in the past.

Even though the Ancient Desolate Clan has protected the Desolate Ancestor's Body for thousands of years, they cannot easily erase Mo Yu's qualifications.

Their failure now only proves that the problem lies with themselves.

Upon hearing this, Huang Qiu's face showed a conflicted expression, but looking at the indignant clansmen around him, he could only sigh and say.

"Even so, the Desolate Ancestor Body has long been regarded as a symbol by my Desolate Ancient Clan. So, as long as Lord Moyu can return the Desolate Ancestor Body, I will offer it up with both hands, no matter the cost, even if it is the treasure of my Desolate Ancient Clan!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Yu's face also turned gloomy. The value of the Desolate Ancestor Body, apart from the other four Primal Dharma Bodies, is unmatched by any other item.

Huang Qiu's words had a somewhat threatening tone.

Mo Yu shook his head and said directly, "I'm sorry, Clan Chief Huang, I refuse!"
