For any descendant of the Sword God Lin family, the ‘clan ancestral hall’ is the holy place in their hearts.
There, it not only means solemnity, solemnity, respect and remembrance of the ancestors, but also the core of the Lin family's clan power.
The pulse master is just the person who speaks about each pulse.
The entire Lin family's decision-making power, leadership power, and even the top military institutions are all in the 'clan ancestral hall'.
Anyone who can step into the clan ancestral hall has a higher status than the pulse master.
People often say that in the Lin clan ancestral hall, half are living people and half are dead.
The living make all decisions in front of the dead.
Although the dead person is dead, the spirit, will and soul left behind by him are watching the other half of the living people in this ancestral hall.
If you want to step into the ancestral hall, strength, status, contribution, and qualifications are all indispensable.
However, even if these four are present, once you betray the Lin family or bring shame to the Lin family, you will be expelled from the ancestral hall immediately.
Lin Xiao and Dong Shenyue are examples.
Members of the clan ancestral hall come from all lines and are separated from each lineage!
Many disciples of the Lin family would guess that the 'clan ancestral hall' is a magnificent place.
Actually not!
The real Lin clan ancestral hall retains the simple traditions of the most ancient times. It was built somewhere inside the Tomb of the God of Ten Thousand Swords. From the outside, it looks unremarkable at all.
Inside the ancestral hall, there are simple wooden chairs.
In front of the wooden chairs, there are rows of wooden tables. On the wooden tables, there are neat wooden tomb tablets, about three thousand in total.
Each tombstone has a name, and there is also a small incense burner in front of it. On the incense burner, the incense will last forever.
On the wall at the end of the tombstone is a wooden sword!
Perhaps because it had not been taken care of for too long, the wooden sword was covered with dust and had some moss growing on it. It seemed that it had long since decayed and might break into pieces if touched.
You can see that the wooden sword has two characters "wood" engraved on it from top to bottom.
Two trees form a ‘forest’.
This ancestral hall is simple, ancient, solemn, and has an atmosphere that is breathtaking.
The tombstones are like the eyes of the ancestors. They remain still forever, looking at the simple wooden chairs in the ancestral hall.
At this moment, of those wooden chairs, only the one in the middle was occupied by someone!
It was an old man. He was slumped on the wooden chair as if he was paralyzed. His hands were hanging on the sides. He could only barely open one of his two dim eyes, looking at the tombstones on the high platform in trance.
He was wearing a broad, dim yellow robe, and his skin had already shriveled, and those curved tendons were like tree roots, protruding from his skin.
This made him look like an old tree.
"Dry."
Suddenly someone shouted outside.
"I'm in."
After the words fell, someone gently pushed open the wooden door of the ancestral hall.
With a creak, the dark and yellow light outside shone, and the inside of the ancestral hall suddenly became much brighter.
Each tombstone seems to have awakened from sleep, and the words on it are also flowing with profound light.
In the light, you can see the person standing at the door, a one-armed man!
The bridge of his nose is high and straight, like a sharp sword hanging on his face, and in his eyes, sword energy surges like the sea.
It is none other than the fifth meridian master ‘Lin Jie’.
He stepped forward, staring at the tombstones, and walked into the clan ancestral hall. He first bowed and kowtowed on the futon three times and muttered something.
After that, he stood up again, lit incense, and meticulously added new incense to each incense burner from top to bottom.
"My ancestors are above me, and I am my disciple Wumai Lin Jie."
After finishing the incense burning, Lin Jie bowed and backed away, and finally sat behind the old man named 'Ku', with his head lowered.
"Ku, Lin Mu has a son who has returned home. Have you heard about it?" Lin Jie asked.
The old man nodded slowly.
"Let it be. Everyone has his own destiny."
His voice is hoarse, and when he speaks, it feels like the roots of a tree are rubbing against each other, making it sound uncomfortable.
"Um."
Lin Jie's eyes flickered, but he still nodded.
"Then I'll leave first."
Lin Jie stood up.
"Recently, the barrier of Sword Soul Purgatory has been slightly loosened, resulting in an increase in star-sourced ferocious beasts in the area. Please bring someone to repair it," the old man said.
"good."
Lin Jie nodded, bowed and backed away, walked out, and gently closed the door of the ancestral hall.
boom.
Inside the ancestral hall, it was dark again.
"There is no immortal clan in the world, and the end of my Lin family has also come."
"It begins with Wanzu Jianxin."
"Finally the clan ancestral hall."
The tombstone sank into the abyss.
…
boom!
Lin's small ship took off from the First Wanjian Chamber of Commerce.
The darkness of Dark Star is like a bewildering sky, but it cannot suppress the brilliant lights of the First Chamber of Commerce of Ten Thousand Swords and the Sea of Infinite Swords.
Eternal night, but also eternal lights.
Flying over the immeasurable sea of swords, in the liquid star source, countless chaotic swords rays of light dotted the sea into a galaxy.
The sword peaks that rush out of the sea shine brightly in the night sky, reaching straight into the sky and illuminating the heaven and earth!
"Actually... Dark Star is so beautiful."
Jiang Feiling leaned next to Li Tianming and looked at the vast sea in front of her.
"The beauty is our boundless sword sea, but that may not be the case in other places. On this endless star, there are many dark and lightless corners." Dong Shenyue said.
"Uh-huh."
Li Tianming and Jiang Feiling looked at each other.
"Brother, please be safe."
Jiang Feiling pulled the lapel of his clothes and said with some reluctance.
She knew that compared to the Infinite Sword Sea and the First Chamber of Commerce of Ten Thousand Swords, the 'Sword Soul Purgatory' was a place where one could die.
Companion beasts, consciousness gods, and phantom gods are all banned, and Li Tianming has been stripped naked.
"Don't worry, if there is really a danger, who cares about the rules? I will directly recognize the gods and phantoms, scaring the whole audience." Li Tianming said confidently.
"cut!"
Seeing how confident he was, Jiang Feiling felt relieved.
She pretended to be serious and coughed: "Work harder, little plum. The fairies are about to return to the Ancestral Soul Realm and advance rapidly. By then, if your realm cannot keep up, the three letters of divorce will be slapped on your head."
"Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I will try to break through to the Little Heavenly Star Realm as soon as possible to help you celebrate your billions of years old." Li Tianming said with a bad smile.
"Your sister!"
Jiang Feiling became angry from shame and pinched his arm hard.
"Shh, find some time to relax, my little happy ball is about to expire."
Li Tianming leaned close to her ear and winked.
"Ignore you!"
This girl hid directly with Dong Shenyue.
She thought Dong Shenyue could protect her, but Li Tianming said: "Grandma, this granddaughter-in-law won't cooperate with me in giving birth to a great-grandson. What do you think I should do?"
"Leave the ideological work to me."
Dong Shenyue winked and said.
"...!"
They were immediately messed up in the wind.
I feel like I'm in a den of thieves.
…
After being separated from them, Li Tianming returned to Broken Sword Peak while studying the details of the Sword Soul Purgatory given to him by Dong Shenyue.
