Chapter 290 Entering the Ancestral Mausoleum and Seeing Emperor Xuan
Stepping into the ancestral mausoleum, a cold and gloomy air hit him. Even though Mo Que had practiced the internal method of the sun, he still felt cold all over.
Without saying a word, he went straight into the depths of the ancestral mausoleum until he came to the place where the emperor's ancestor was.
"It has been nearly a thousand years since you proclaimed yourself emperor, and you are the second person among all the descendants of my Mo family whose potential is not lower than mine!"
In front of Mo Que's eyes was a copper coffin. The voice of the Mo family's emperor and ancestor came from the coffin, which seemed extremely strange.
The lid of the coffin was tightly closed and only his voice could be heard but no one could be seen. It felt like a dead person in the coffin was talking to Mo Que.
"I wonder what the emperor's instructions were when he was summoned?" Mo Que stood in front of the copper coffin, neither humble nor arrogant.
If other descendants of the Mo family had already knelt down and worshiped before coming to the emperor's ancestor, he did not.
"You didn't kneel down when you saw the ancestor's coffin. It seems that you have resentment towards both the Mo family and me!"
The voice in the coffin said: "It doesn't matter, I have been sleeping for many years and don't care about the affairs of the clan. You were bullied like this back then and it is understandable that you feel that I acted unfairly."
Mo Que didn't bother to explain. Now he felt extremely disappointed with everyone in the Mo family, including the emperor in front of him.
He asked indifferently: "I believe that the Emperor and Ancestor knew about the battle before Zuling. Is the reason for resurrecting now also to prevent me from destroying Mo Shang?"
The voice in the copper coffin said: "You can say yes, you can also say no."
Mo Que frowned, but did not ask further questions, waiting for Emperor Xuan's next words.
"You have also heard what Mo Shang said before. If you want to truly awaken the ancestral blood, you need to capture the blood of another person who has been fused with the ancestral blood."
The voice in the copper coffin sounded indifferent and said: "After Mo Shang reached the king's realm, he wanted to fight you to steal your ancestral blood. Now that you have won, the ancestral blood in his body should belong to you.
So it makes no difference whether you abolish him or not."
Mo Que's face darkened when he heard this, and he said, "What does the Emperor Ancestor mean by asking me to steal Mo Shang's ancestral blood and merge it into my own body to awaken the ancestral blood in my body?"
He started fighting for the title and returned to Yunzhou. All he wanted was to put an end to what happened back then, seek justice, and cut off injustice with the sword!
He never thought about taking away Mo Shang's blood and stepping on Mo Shang to achieve his own success.
This is the difference between him and Mo Shang.
"Do you know what kind of existence my ancient ancestor of the Mo family is?" Emperor Xuan in the coffin said again: "Those were among the few truly invincible people in ancient times!"
"The ancient blood you and Mo Shang obtained is only one billionth of that of our ancient ancestors, which already makes you look proud of the hundreds of states. I only got a little more than you, which is enough to be the best in the hundred states."
The state is proclaimed emperor!"
"If you can fuse Mo Shang's blood and take a step further, your future achievements may not be able to surpass mine!"
It sounded like the ancient ancestor of the Mo family was far more powerful than imagined, which made Mo Que slightly moved.
According to rumors, the human race, like the creatures of the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan, has blood inheritance.
The Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan are naturally powerful because of their bloodline, and the strength and weakness of their offspring are determined by the bloodline of the alien beasts.
Although the human race is different from the alien beasts, if there were powerful people in their ancestors, the power of their ancestors will be passed on to future generations through their bloodline.
But just like a strange beast, the longer the generations pass, the thinner the bloodline becomes.
And according to what Emperor Xuan of the Mo family said, the ancient ancestor seemed to be an extremely long-standing existence, and it was unknown how many generations had passed since then.
Even if the current descendants of the Mo family contain the power of the ancient ancestors in their blood, there are very few of them.
And if only one billionth of the ancient ancestor's bloodline is awakened, he can become a being like Mo Que and Mo Shang, who are proud of the hundreds of states. So how powerful is the ancient ancestor of the Mo family in ancient times?
"Do you think that I was too cruel and swallowed the blood of another person of the same clan to gain the position of emperor today?"
"I also let the descendants of the Mo family continue to fight, kill each other, and sacrifice others in order to achieve their own success!"
In the copper coffin, Emperor Xuan of the Mo family's voice remained indifferent and emotionless, saying: "It's not that I'm cruel, but that this world is so cruel!"
He didn't wait for Mo Que's answer, and then said: "Eternal years, all the changes in the world can be seen in the eyes of the world, but it only takes a flick of the finger."
"If you live long enough like me and have seen generations of descendants from birth to old age and death, you will know that there is no difference between them and ants, grass and trees."
These words made Mo Que's heart tremble. In the eyes of the emperor of the Mo family, the descendants of the Mo family are all ants?
Although he could understand Emperor Xuan's state of mind, he could not recognize his aloofness and indifference, which regarded his descendants as ants.
"Practitioners who go against the will of heaven strive to transcend, break out of the constraints of heaven and earth, and jump out of the cycle of life and death!"
"You can't transcend. Everything is just an ant. Since they all live in the blink of an eye, I will pave a new path for them. Sacrificing one person will bring the other one step closer to transcendence. So why not?"
The voice of Emperor Xuan of the Mo family was always cold, like a god who watched the changes in the world, including birth, old age, illness and death, without any disturbance.
"Did the emperor summon me because he wanted to persuade me to merge with Mo Shang's blood?" Mo Que couldn't accept that his ancestors looked at his descendants in such a way.
Emperor Xuan was too indifferent and regarded his descendants as ants, leaving life and death at his mercy.
Although he keeps claiming to be detached, he is so cold, heartless, and abandons his humanity and self. Is this still considered detachment?
If you have lost your humanity and self, what is the point of jumping out of heaven and earth and becoming immortal?
"Are you not planning to seize Mo Shangzu's blood?" This time, there was a hint of ripples in Emperor Xuan of the Mo family's voice.
"I never had this plan!" Mo Que shook his head decisively.
He is different from Mo Shang. He cultivates his sword so that he can protect him with his sword when he encounters injustice.
If he, like Mo Shang, tries to achieve his own success by trampling on others, and commits unfair acts without the help of others, he will destroy the heart of his sword and bring about his own destruction!
"Even if awakening the bloodline of the ancient ancestors allows you to embark on the road to becoming an emperor, or even transcend the imperial realm, do you insist?" Emperor Xuan's voice became more and more cold.
"I can only walk my own path by myself!" Mo Que did not forget the guidance given to him by Yao Lao and the mysterious being in the picture.
In the copper coffin, Emperor Xuan's voice was silent for a long time, and suddenly he sighed and said: "You are the second person I have seen in the past thousand years whose potential is not lower than mine. It's a pity that the two of you have the same temper.
So stubborn!"
This was the second time Mo Que heard him mention another person, and he couldn't help but ask: "Who is the other person?"
Emperor Xuan's voice in the coffin was silent for a moment before he said two words: "Don't stop!"
Mo Que was shocked and stayed where he was.
This name is none other than his father who has been missing for many years.
"How did my father disappear and where is he now?" He came back to his senses and asked urgently.
